Chapter 82: Mushroom Cloud Over the Navy Headquarters
Chapter 82: Mushroom Cloud Over the Navy Headquarters
It was not until later, after repeated failures and setbacks, that Dorag gradually grew up and slowly realized that man's true thoughts.
In fact, until now, Dorag still doesn't know who is right and who is wrong between him and Borsalino. It's just that this "road of no return" seems to be extremely difficult and no one has ever walked it so far, so someone has to try to walk it.
It is this belief that has supported Dragon step by step to where he is today, becoming a thorn in the side of the World Government, and also the greatest leader of the Revolutionary Army in the hearts of countless people.
But in Dragon's mind, only Borsalino, who led him on this path, is the only choice for the leader of the revolutionary army!
"It's no big deal even if we fail! Don't forget, we grow and develop through our failures again and again!"
Belo Betty's voice unconsciously became higher, and the ability of the Encouragement Fruit was activated instinctively, instantly making Dragon's emotions become excited.
However, this degree of emotional change was immediately controlled by Dragon. As the leader of the revolutionary army, he needed absolute calmness. Even though he knew that Belo Betty had good intentions, Dragon would not allow himself to show any inappropriate emotions.
"Go and rest quickly. We will have to rely on your abilities tomorrow!"
Dorag patted Belo Betty on the shoulder. The power of the Fruit of Encouragement was not only to boost morale. With Belo Betty's development of the Fruit of Encouragement, he could completely inspire the smallest thoughts and emotions in other people's hearts.
If she hadn't been there, Drago wouldn't have dared to expect the prisoners in Impel Down to fight the navy to the death.
Although the outcome of a war is often determined by the strength of both sides, if there are not enough "soldiers" to resist the enemy's "soldiers", there is a possibility that one's own "generals" and "commanders" will be killed by the soldiers.
"Hehe, I can't wait!"
Bello Betty chuckled. Among the commanders of the five major armies of the Revolutionary Army, she was the one who was most hostile to the navy.
It's not just because of what happened in her hometown, but more importantly, all her companions died at the hands of Sakaski, and she has long wanted to settle this account with Akainu.
In the cabin, Luffy and Sabo were lying on the bed, sleeping soundly, hoping to get enough rest so that they could go and rescue Ace together tomorrow.
Fortunately, Sabo exists, otherwise, with Luffy's personality, he would have run to Marineford without caring about anything to save Ace.
At the same time, sitting cross-legged in the prison of Marinford, Ace looked at the lights on the prison walls and prayed silently in his heart that his father and everyone would not come to rescue him. A person like him was not worth the risk for his father and everyone.
The next morning, a total of 100,000 naval elites began to assemble in the square of Marinford. Everyone knew what a terrible enemy they were going to face next, but these elite troops from the headquarters and the elite marines from various naval branches did not show any fear.
It took less than two hours for 100,000 marines to assemble. Such organization and discipline could only be achieved by carefully selected naval elites.
"Really? The execution is still hours away, why do we have to gather here so early..."
Unfortunately, among the many well-trained naval elites, there are always some "black sheep". The giant female vice admiral Vivian sat on the turret yawning, and her lazy posture was just like a replica of a certain slacking admiral.
"Hey, Vivian, please pay attention to your manners! Don't forget that we are the lieutenant generals of the headquarters!"
The giant vice admiral Lakulova at the side could not help but persuade him that except for Haguval D. Sauro and Vivian who had already betrayed the navy, the giant vice admirals of the navy were all sent to the navy from childhood and slowly trained through the "Lamb's House" of Carmelite Sisters.
Giant vice admirals like Lakulova are often more loyal to the navy than ordinary vice admirals of the headquarters. Seeing Vivian ignoring the rules and regulations of the navy, Lakulova must be very upset.
It's like a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder seeing a Go board full of white pieces but with a black piece in the middle, and feeling something is wrong unless he finds a way to replace it.
"Stop talking nonsense! If you are not convinced, then let's fight. Let the God of War of Elbaf decide between us!"
Vivian cursed angrily, "Birds of a feather flock together." Vivian learned a magical skill from Borsalino, the lazy general: playing rogue.
Simply put, if I speak in front of the navy, I am the God of War of Elbaf. If I keep silent, a duel will decide who is right and who is wrong between us.
With her strength, the number of lieutenants in our headquarters who could defeat her was less than the fingers on one hand, and those who could defeat her had to be wary of Elbaf, who was Vivian's birth mother.
They are the undisputed number one superpower in the world. Even the navy backed by the World Government wants to provoke these big guys.
So Vivian was able to walk sideways in Marinford, and even Marshal Sengoku gave her some leeway intentionally or unintentionally for Borsalino's sake.
Then, in front of Elbaf's fellow giants, Vivian immediately changed her expression, talking about the navy's military regulations when she spoke and the orders of the World Government when she closed her mouth.
It is true that the Navy Headquarters does not want to provoke the Elbaf Titans, but the Elbaf Titans are not willing to offend the Navy, the overlord of the sea, for no reason.
Vivian, who was able to get the best of both worlds, became a privileged class in both the Marine Headquarters and Elbaf. Faced with Vivian's eagerness to duel at any time, Lakulova's face turned green with embarrassment, but he did not dare to really agree.
It’s not just because Vivian has the Elbaf giants behind her, but more importantly, Lakulov has no confidence that he can defeat Vivian.
Behind the arrogant and domineering attitude is Vivian's almost overwhelming strength. The ordinary giant lieutenant general is a bit far from her strength. If a fight really breaks out, he will probably be pinned to the ground by Vivian.
"The Shichibukai! The Shichibukai are here too!"
"Tsk, what an annoying guy!"
"No matter what, they are on our side now, so please be patient..."
……
The navy officers did not have any special reaction to the quarrel that broke out between the giant vice admirals. It was good enough that these hot-tempered big guys did not start fighting directly.
Instead, the Seven Warlords of the Sea who were heading towards the first line of defense attracted the attention of the marines. These Seven Warlords of the Sea, who were usually regarded as the shame of the navy and the source of all evil, were now standing on their side, which made many marines feel complicated.
He was in awe of the Seven Warlords' immense strength, yet at the same time felt fortunate that they were on his side.
“Hehehe, there are so many marines and giants! It’s a pity that they can’t compare with Oz, but with so many people, we will definitely be able to collect a lot of high-quality corpses and shadows after the battle breaks out…”
Moria walked slowly to the front line with her big belly, her greedy eyes constantly scanning the naval elites.
However, he is also very self-aware. It's okay for him to take advantage of others during a melee, but if he really angers the navy, even the title of Shichibukai will not be able to protect him.
After all, as a veteran Shichibukai, Moria has been beaten up by an "unknown" admiral many times. As long as the other party doesn't care about whether he can be promoted or not, he doesn't have to care about the world government's opinion.
In comparison, even Sakaski, who hated evil, was forced to let go of some extremely evil pirates in order to be promoted to marshal and better eliminate pirates. This is somewhat putting the cart before the horse.
"The strongest man in the world, Whitebeard..."
Mihawk's hawk-like eyes were fixed on the direction of the sea off Marinford. He wanted to see the power of the strongest man in the world and find out how big the gap was between himself and Whitebeard.
“Hiyahiyahiyah… The battle to decide who represents justice is about to begin! Who will have the last laugh? The navy? The pirates? Or me? No matter what, only the winner can represent justice!”
At this time, Doflamingo had already forgotten the unpleasantness of yesterday. Looking at the spectacular scene in Marinford Square, he laughed nervously.
"..."
The Tyrant Bear stood there silently without moving, his lifeless eyes quietly staring at the sea. There was no change in either his body or expression. No one knew what he was thinking at the moment, or perhaps he had already lost the ability to think.
"When will this boring thing end? I really don't want to stay in this place for a moment..."
Hancock muttered to herself quietly, she didn't look like some necrophile with plans to collect corpses, nor did she look like some militant swordsman who wanted to have a spar with Whitebeard.
He doesn't have any arrogant idea that he can define justice, and he doesn't care what some dumbfounded guy is thinking.
The only thing Hancock cares about is when the execution will end. At this moment, she is probably the only one present, besides Ace, who does not want the Whitebeard Pirates to show up.
She only hoped that the execution would be completed quickly and smoothly, so that she could return to Master Borsalino.
Unfortunately, the possibility of this outcome is really low. Both the Navy and the Whitebeard Pirates are ready to start this fierce battle.
Below the execution platform, three naval admirals lined up and sat on seats that had been prepared in advance.
"I say, we're not going to sit here for hours, are we?"
Borsalino leaned on the armrest of the chair with his chin in his hand, not sitting down at all. Anyway, he was far away from the live broadcast of the Den Den Mushi, so he didn't have to worry about being heard by people around the world who were watching the live broadcast.
"The execution will begin in three and a half hours. Please be patient."
Kuzan on the side spoke slowly. He thought this was quite good. It was more comfortable than standing for several hours like Marshal Zhan Guo.
"Humph, just a few hours. If we can wipe out the Whitebeard Pirates, it would be worth it even if we were exposed to the scorching sun for days and nights!"
Sakaski rarely spoke and said a few more words. His tone sounded a bit aggressive, but considering his personality, these were rare "soft words".
"How boring... Nami-chan, for lunch I'd like to have miso ramen and charcoal-grilled beef ribs, and for drinks I'd like rum..."
Borsalino, who was extremely bored, simply took out a small Den Den Mushi from his arms. Anyway, there were still several hours before the execution, and the Whitebeard Pirates would not arrive so soon.
"Oh, please prepare a plate of sweet shrimp sashimi and sherry for me, and I would really appreciate it if I had a latte as well."
Before Sakaski could object, Kuzan at the side couldn't help but speak.
Anyway, if I get scolded later, Borsalino will help me share the blame, so I might as well get some food first.
"OK, did you hear me, Nami-chan? Sweet shrimp sashimi and sherry, and latte... well, I'll have another cup of ice cream. Remember to ask for banana flavor."
Borsalino made an OK gesture to Kuzan and spoke to Den Den Mushi.
"...Hey, order me a bowl of chili beef rice, triple spicy!"
Sakaski was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.
Although he is a hawk through and through, Sakaski is by no means a stubborn person who only knows how to be tough.
Among the three generals, he and Kuzan are secretly competing for the position of the next marshal. Sakaski does not expect to get the support of Borsalino, but he does not want the other party to stand on Kuzan's camp.
Therefore, as long as it does not violate his principles, Sakaski does not mind lowering his posture a little and "showing goodwill" to Borsalino.
Unfortunately, his character and temper were so stubborn that Borsalino could hardly perceive Sakaski's good intentions.
"Okay, would you like something to drink?"
Borsalino was about to place his order when he suddenly remembered something and turned to Sakaski and spoke.
Although his style and philosophy are somewhat different from Sakaski's, the relationship between the two has never been too bad.
"...Vodka, please."
Sakaski hesitated for a moment. Drinking before the battle was somewhat against discipline, but Borsalino and Kuzan had already ordered drinks, so he couldn't stand out.
Again, as long as it doesn't involve matters of principle, Sakaski is not as difficult to talk to as he usually appears.
Especially when facing Borsalino, who was superior to him in strength, achievements and even qualifications, Sakaski seemed to subconsciously lower his posture.
"I remember I stole a bottle of good vodka from Doflamingo before. Let's try it together later."
Borsalino smiled and asked Nami to make the arrangements, then he estimated that the time was about right before he turned on the live broadcast function of the dimensional chat group.
[Ding! Borsalino opens the live broadcast room and invites everyone to watch the live broadcast. Do you accept? ]
【Accept/Reject】
When the notification that the live broadcast room was open popped up in the chat group, the silly group members who were chatting in the group rushed into the live broadcast room immediately.
[Kobayashi: First! ]
[The passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: I am the first! ]
[Kobayashi: Hahaha, I am number one! You lose! ]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Damn it, I've been single for 20 years and my hand speed is actually inferior to Xiao Lin's. I can't accept it! ]
[Graybara Ai: Hey! Be careful, stupid dog, I'm still a minor! Be careful or I'll tell you I'm a pervert!]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Humph, a venomous girl in the guise of a little girl! ]
[Fubuki: Gu... There are so many people! ]
[Kobayashi: Wow! There are so many people! Borsalino-san, how many people are there in the square?]
【Borussalino: Well, about 100,000 people.】
[Giant...Giant! Unbelievable! If calculated proportionally, their height is nearly 20 meters!]
[Giraffe: The tallest animal in existence is the giraffe, which is only six meters tall, and these giants are too big... This is unscientific!]
In the Conan world, Haibara Ai, who was sitting in front of the experimental table, had an expression of disbelief on her face. Although she had long known that other worlds were full of strange things, she was still a little overwhelmed when she saw with her own eyes the appearance of a species that was not in line with biological common sense, such a giant.
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Hahaha, you are stupid, you sharp-tongued girl, these giants are still small, there will be two bigger ones later! ]
[Orochimaru: Oh, what a spectacular scene. Are they preparing to wait for the enemy to attack? This formation is too dense. If they encounter a large-scale ninjutsu attack, they will probably suffer heavy losses.]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Don't worry, the people in the world of Yellow Monkey are thick-skinned and strong-limbed. Even those who are seriously injured and dying can be alive and kicking after lying down for a few days. Ordinary attacks really can't threaten them. ]
[Orochimaru: Haha, no wonder Manabu couldn't stop thinking about it after he came back...]
[Borsalino: Forget it. That greedy snake ate more than twenty prisoners from the Infinite Hell in one go. I can't afford to support such a big eater.]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Damn... Many of the prisoners on the sixth floor of Impel Down are Devil Fruit users, this is such a waste...]
[Xiao Mei: What are you talking about? Wow! There are so many people!]
[Kobayashi: A newcomer has arrived too. Borsalino-san is broadcasting a big scene over there. It seems like they are going to publicly execute someone, and they want to lure that person's pirate group over here.]
[Graybara Ai: That’s a bit outrageous. I can’t imagine a pirate that needs an army of 100,000 to suppress…]
[Esdeath: @Borusalino dear, do you need help? ]
In the world of Akagi Slash, Esdeath, sitting on the ice throne, stared at the virtual screen in front of her with great interest. Looking at the 100,000 naval elites gathered in the Marinford Square, the warlike female general of the empire couldn't help but reveal an excited expression.
The war to eliminate the northern alien tribes has not officially begun yet. Esdeath, who does not want to scare away her prey, can only be patient as much as possible. She has to wait until the northern alien tribes fall into her trap before she can take action personally to completely defeat them.
It would have been fine if she hadn't been able to see the tense atmosphere before the battle of Marinford with her own eyes, but Esdeath, who felt the atmosphere of the battlefield through the live broadcast, was already a little unable to contain herself.
She wanted to fight against powerful enemies and enjoy the pleasure of killing and trampling her enemies.
[Borsalino: Well, not for now. If you really want to help, I can find you an opponent later.]
[Esdeath: Is he very strong? ]
[Borsalino: Not bad. He was a candidate for general before, but now... he seems to be much stronger than he was then, and can be considered a general.]
[Esdeath: Admiral? I remember dear, you are the admiral of the navy?]
[Borsalino: Well, I am one of the three admirals of the navy...]
[Esdeath: Great! Honey, remember to hurry up. I can't wait to fight that guy!]
[Orochimaru: Haha, if you can give me the other party's body afterwards, I might be able to provide some help. ]
[Esdeath: No need, I don't need help... If you want a corpse, give me five hundred... No, one thousand dimensional coins! ]
[Orochimaru: Oh, sure, @灰原哀灰原, are you interested in starting another project? ]
[Grayhara Ai: NO! Not interested! I reject all inhumane research projects! ]
[Orochimaru: What a pity! You are wasting your genius brain. ]
[Fubuki: Go away, Ai-chan, don't be fooled by this guy, Orochimaru is not a good person at all! ]
[Tony Stark: Hey, you didn't call me for this good thing. Stark Industries' biotechnology level is also first-class! @Orochimaru I'll pay for 1,000 dimensional coins. How about sharing the research results? ]
[Orochimaru: Pay me another thousand dimensional coins and I can give you half of the research materials, and we can share the research results.] [Tony Stark: Deal!]
[Esdeath: @Borusalino dear, when will I take action? ]
[Borusalino: Wait a little longer. The guy hasn't come out yet. Don't worry. Wait until the guy is almost done fighting with some troublesome guy, then you can take action to deal with him.]
[Esdeath: There is another opponent? Otherwise, I will kill them all in one fell swoop! ]
[Borsalino: Well, no, the other troublesome guy can barely be considered one of ours, and if it's one against two, even you can't be their match.]
[Orochimaru: @Esdeath, if it’s convenient, please help me collect more ‘experimental materials’. ]
[Tony Stark: Collect more. It would be best if I could get the Giant's DNA. I can try to clone the Giant.]
[Borsalino: Hey, hey, hey, don't go too far. You can take the pirates' bodies, but I can't give you the navy's! ]
[Tony Stark: We know what's going on...]
……
While Borsalino was "chatting" with his friends in the live broadcast room, at the execution platform on the other side, Marshal Sengoku, who estimated that the time was almost up, turned to look at Vice Admiral Garp.
"Okay, Garp... I've already told you!"
Marshal Zhan Guo was a little hesitant. If Ace's identity was not important, he would not want to reveal the truth that his old friend had hidden for many years.
"Whatever you want, I'm right down there!"
Garp turned his head away and didn't want to look at Marshal Sengoku. It wasn't because he hated Sengoku, but he just didn't want this guy to see him looking embarrassed.
Marshal Zhan Guo sighed, but still strode onto the execution platform and asked the people in charge of the execution to step back.
Next, he will announce to the world through live broadcast that what Ace carries is the sinful bloodline of One Piece!
At this time, in various countries, islands and towns in the four seas, the Red Earth Continent and even the Great Waterway, countless people were guarding the live broadcast screens and broadcasts that had been arranged in advance, quietly watching the Warring States Marshal on the execution platform, waiting for the arrival of this war that would affect and even change the world.
In order to let the whole world witness the annihilation of the evil bloodline of One Piece with their own eyes, the World Government spared no expense in building this super-large live broadcast system covering the world.
"It's about to begin..."
Borsalino's eyes narrowed slightly. In front of the 100,000 navy officers in Marinford and countless people around the world watching through the live broadcast, Marshal Sengoku announced the secret of Ace's life experience.
Derived from the sinful bloodline of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger, it took a gestation period of one year and three months, a gestation period beyond the limits of human beings, before Boscas D. Ace was finally born.
"The sea...the bloodline of the Pirate King?!"
"That man...is actually the descendant of that man!"
"Incredible! Fire Fist Ace is the son of Pirate King Roger!"
……
When Marshal Warring States' voice sounded in the live broadcast, countless people couldn't help but exclaimed, and even the navy in Marinford Square made an incredible noise.
Especially those naval officers, almost all of them grew up in Roger's era and have a very deep impression of the Pirate King.
When they heard that Ace had Roger's blood flowing in his body, they immediately understood why Marshal Sengoku executed Ace with such fanfare.
[Kobayashi: That’s amazing! Did you hear what the uncle wearing the seagull hat said? The executed boy’s mother was pregnant with him for one year and three months!]
[Grayhara Ai: I have despaired of this unreasonable world... This is unscientific! ]
[Orochimaru: The son of the Pirate King, the bloodline of sin, really makes me interested...]
[Tony Stark: Wow, they're going to chop off that young man's head later. What a barbaric punishment.]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Alas, it's a pity that I'm still a weak chicken, otherwise I really want to save Ace! ]
[Esdeath: This world is so great, there are so many guys who look so powerful! ]
[Xiao Mei: I don’t know how powerful the strong people in this world are, but those giants look so scary. Even the clan leader probably can’t be their opponent, right?]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Little sister Xiao Mei, if there is anything you want to know, you can ask me! ]
[Blizzard: @Xiao Mei, newbies, be careful not to be fooled, this guy is not a good person! ]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Hey, hey, hey! That’s too much…]
……
The stupid group members started arguing while watching the live broadcast, but Borsalino didn't have the time to argue with them.
"Drago, this guy really gave me a big surprise..."
Due to the ability of the Stand, Borsalino's Observation Haki was enhanced to an extremely terrifying level.
Although he did not gain the ability to hear the sounds of all things or foresee the future, the range of his observation Haki has surpassed that of Eneel, who relied on the Thunder Fruit to expand the range of his mind network to cover Sky Island.
When the revolutionary army's Southern Army commander Lindbergh appeared in the sky flying a strange aircraft with a rather wasteland style, Borsalino noticed its arrival at the first moment.
However, what caught Borsalino's attention was not Lindbergh on the aircraft, but the giant missile with a radiation symbol and a skull painted on it hanging under the aircraft.
Nuclear bomb!
Borsalino's instinctive reaction when he saw the big killer weapon was that it was a fake. Logically speaking, the world's technological level was not yet at the point where it could produce such a thing.
When Borsalino talked to Dragon about the big killer weapon, he never thought that Dragon could make it.
But considering that the Revolutionary Army has some connection with Vegapunk, and that Lindbergh is also a technical genius, it doesn't seem impossible that he has been holding back for so many years and come up with something terrible?
"Huh? What is that?"
Kuzan soon discovered Lindbergh's arrival, but Admiral Aokiji was obviously unaware of the existence of the weapon.
When he saw the giant missile with a skull painted on it hanging under the aircraft, he simply treated it as a more powerful bomb and didn't pay much attention to it.
"Lindbergh, the commander of the Southern Army of the Revolutionary Army... Humph, these rats in the gutter dare to come out and seek death!"
Sakaski snorted coldly. With the apparent strength of the Navy, even if the Revolutionary Army and the Whitebeard Pirates colluded with each other, they would never be their match.
What's more, Marshal Zhan Guo seemed to have anticipated this and arranged an ambush in advance.
Although Sakaski also hated that bastard Drokas who attacked his own people, if the opponents were pirates and the Revolutionary Army, it was not unacceptable to tolerate that bastard temporarily.
"It's better not to let such a dangerous thing fall..."
Borsalino crossed his legs and raised his hands, a dazzling light flashing at his fingertips.
Kuzan and Sakaski both looked sideways when they saw this scene. Given Borsalino's personality, it was indeed a bit rare for him to take the initiative like this.
However, among the three admirals, only Borsalino can have such ultra-long-range and precise attack capabilities. If Kuzan and Sakaski want to hit such a far and small target, the only option is a super-large-scale saturation attack.
"Wow! The emergency escape device is activated!"
Lindbergh on the other side of the aircraft suddenly let out a strange cry and pulled the joystick on the aircraft violently. The ejection device installed under the seat was directly activated, ejecting him and the seat out of the aircraft.
Immediately afterwards, the aircraft was hit by Borsalino's flash, and the nuclear bomb hanging under the cabin fell straight into the sea off Marinford.
"Not good! At this distance... activate the rocket thrusters! Full power!"
Lindbergh glanced at the location where the nuclear bomb fell and quickly pressed the button on the seat. The next moment, a rocket thruster popped out from both sides of the seat, pushing Lindbergh away from the direction where the nuclear bomb fell.
The nuclear bomb fell into the deep sea in a free fall, but neither the navy nor the people watching the live broadcast paid much attention to it. Most people couldn't even recognize Lindbergh's identity.
"Boom!"
The nuclear bomb continued to sink in the sea. Borsalino, who was sitting below the execution platform, suddenly sighed, took out a large umbrella from somewhere and opened it.
Kuzan on the side looked over with some confusion, but before he could ask, his expression suddenly changed.
"Rumble, rumble..."
The entire Marinford was shaking violently, and a huge water bag bulged up on the sea surface where the nuclear bomb fell, as if some huge monster was about to rush out from under the water.
"boom!"
The next moment, a huge column of water shot up into the sky. Thousands of tons of sea water were sent into the sky at the moment of the explosion. The overwhelming water mist instantly engulfed Marinford.
An extremely large mushroom cloud, far larger than that of Marinford, rose off the coast of the Navy Headquarters. Even from dozens or even hundreds of miles away, this magnificent mushroom cloud could be clearly seen.
Before the navy, who were drenched by the sea water, could recover from the shock, they saw a tsunami tens of meters high caused by the explosion of the nuclear bomb, pressing towards Marinford with unstoppable force.
"Bear Impact!"
Seeing that the tsunami was about to engulf everything in front of him, Big Bear ignored Hancock who was hiding behind him to avoid getting wet, and sent out the block of atmosphere compressed to the extreme with an expressionless face.
The Bear Impact created a huge shock wave, easily defeating the rolling tsunami.
Apart from "cleaning" Marinford, the nuclear bomb dropped by Lindbergh did not achieve the desired effect.
However, anyone who has witnessed a nuclear bomb explosion with their own eyes cannot ignore its horrific power that could destroy the world.
“Hey, hey, hey, hey, this is really scary. With this level of power, it seems necessary to find an opportunity to talk to those guys. I wonder if the Revolutionary Army is willing to cooperate…”
Doflamingo smoothed the sea water off his hair, and a rather exaggerated smile appeared on his face. He looked towards the huge mushroom cloud with eyes full of greed and desire.
“Hehehe, if I could get hold of something this powerful, I might be able to blow that bastard Kaido to death!”
Moriah let out a shrill laugh.
He was really looking forward to it more and more. This war might be the first step to his resurgence!
"As expected of Lord Borsalino, you can attack directly from such a long distance..."
Hancock held her hands to her heart, her beautiful face full of intoxicated expression.
Mihawk casually chopped off the mist that almost swallowed him with a knife. The power of the giant bomb was indeed amazing, but Mihawk was only interested in swordsmanship.
Compared to the Shichibukai's indifference and even their greed for nuclear bombs, the navy that witnessed the terrifying power was deeply shocked.
In an explosion of that magnitude, even a vice admiral would have little chance of surviving.
If Admiral Kizaru had not taken action in advance to destroy the aircraft, allowing it to fly to the square of Marinford and drop bombs, the 100,000 naval elites would have suffered heavy losses.
"…How terrible…What kind of bomb is that?!"
"Assholes! This is declaring war on the navy! We will never let them off!"
"It's the Revolutionary Army! How dare they provoke us like this!"
……
The naval officers had just recovered from their shock, and then they were filled with fear and anger, wishing they could hang all the members of the revolutionary army from the mast.
Even the giant lieutenant generals who were usually fearless were frightened by the devastating power of the nuclear bomb.
When faced with an attack of that power, an ordinary human being might still have the possibility of escaping or evading.
If it were the giants' size, they would be the perfect target. If a nuclear bomb were to hit them, many giants would die!
"Oh!"
With a gloomy face, Sakaski crushed the armrest of the chair, and the hot lava flowed out of his body, evaporating all the moisture on his body in the blink of an eye.
Before this, in Sakaski's eyes, the revolutionary army was at best a group of rats in the gutter. If they had not hidden so well, they would have been crushed into powder by the navy long ago.
But when the revolutionary army showed their trump card, Sakaski realized how dangerous the revolutionary army had grown to.
"It's really scary. If you get wet by accident, you'll catch a cold..."
Borsalino slowly put away his umbrella. If it weren't for the fact that his Observation Haki had a large enough coverage area, the consequences would have been disastrous if that thing had flown directly into the sky above Marinford and dropped a bomb on him.
Unless Borsalino shows his true strength, even if Sakaski and Kuzan attack together, they may not be able to block the air-burst nuclear bomb.
"Was that a dynamite rock? It was so powerful..."
The ice shell covering Kuzan slowly faded away, and a serious look rarely appeared on his face, which always had a lazy expression.
Compared to Sakaski, who has been stationed in the G1 branch in the New World all year round, Kuzan has relatively limited knowledge of the explosive rock stored in the New World.
In his impression, the only thing that could produce such an amazing explosion effect was the explosive rock in the New World.
"No, there is no report of the loss of the explosive rock reserves. It is probably the secret weapon of the Revolutionary Army..."
Sakaski was silent for a moment and then spoke. For Sakaski, who was determined to eliminate pirates, it was obviously not good news that the Revolutionary Army had a trump card that was enough to threaten the World Government.
After all, in the eyes of the World Government, the threat posed by the Revolutionary Army is much more serious than that of pirates. Now that the Revolutionary Army has revealed their secret weapon, if nothing unexpected happens, the World Government will only further deploy naval forces to target the Revolutionary Army.
"It's a very scary weapon... Senior Borsalino, do you have any information?"
Kuzan turned and looked at Borsalino. Whether in terms of age, strength or qualifications, Borsalino was undoubtedly the senior among the three admirals.
Moreover, both Sakaski and Kuzan knew very well that the relationship between Borsalino and Dorag was extraordinary.
If there was anyone in the Navy who might know something about the Revolutionary Army, Borsalino definitely knew much more than Garp, Dragon's biological father.
"Hmm... the Revolutionary Army probably won't be able to produce a second nuclear... ahem, a second bomb of this kind in a short period of time."
Borsalino was also a little confused. He had only mentioned the concept of a nuclear bomb to Dorag at the beginning. Who could have thought that Dorag would actually make this thing? Even if it was black technology, it was a bit too black.
Wait... think about it carefully, when he was drunk and chatting with Dorag, he seemed to have mentioned more than just the nuclear bomb!
The corner of Borsalino's mouth twitched. Dragon shouldn't be able to create such outrageous things as Star Destroyers and Dyson Spheres, right?
"In that case, as long as we can get rid of Dragon, the Revolutionary Army will not be able to pose much of a threat to the Navy and the World Government in a short period of time..."
The lava flowing on Sakaski's body gradually disappeared, and although his tone became calmer, the murderous intent in his eyes was unprecedentedly high.
In the past, Sakaski and Dragon had a pretty good relationship, and the two even carried out missions to defeat pirates together.
But for the future of the navy, Sakaski would not hesitate to kill even his former colleagues.
"Drago has indeed crossed the line. Such a dangerous weapon should never have been created in the first place."
Kuzan then spoke up.
The Navy's hawkish and dovish leaders were able to reach a unified position in a very short period of time.
"I have no opinion."
Borsalino also spoke calmly.
Although if the nuclear missile fell, he, Sakaski and Kuzan would definitely intercept it, the theoretical maximum damage would not occur.
But as an admiral, Borsalino would only choose to stand on the side of the navy.
