Chapter 284: The Final Battle at the Top: Pre-War Tension
Coagulated blood, torn black cloth, inside a pitch-black warship with the navy flag stripped off, in Gion Momotosa's bedroom, there were dozens of torn black robes stained with blood.
With her tall body, she crouched down to personally put on a brand new black battle robe for Arthur.
"It's strange, Arthur, that thirty-four years have gone by so quickly."
"Yes."
"The first time I saw you, my intuition as a woman told me that you would be a great man in the future, but I didn't expect that you would shake the world as a pirate."
"It seems that no matter which world it is, women either have to have good taste or be deceived in their feelings for a lifetime, Gion."
"It's better not to let Yana know about your history. I have been hiding it."
"I didn't expect Stussy to go against me and secretly give birth to a cub with my blood. This also proves that she has gotten rid of her clone identity, doesn't it?"
Arthur stood outside the window with his arms open, waiting for Gion Momotosa to undress him personally.
After getting dressed, Gion hugged Arthur tightly, wrapping him in her arms with her soft body and skin.
"What's the matter?" Arthur stroked her soft hair: "You are already over 40 years old, you are not young anymore."
"Actually... I have also concealed the matter about Yaluo from you..." Gion's eyes were filled with tears. He was worried about this war and cried in a deep voice:
"Arthur, the World Government is not as simple as you think. If you try to overthrow the World Government with your status and identity in the eyes of the world, you will face the military forces of more than 170 member countries. No one knows what you have been through. They only know that you are an unforgivable devil. The troops of the Sabaody Archipelago are completely unable to match that huge military force."
The beautiful woman in her forties in front of him cried again because of her worry for Arthur. Arthur's hand stroking her hair moved up and down, feeling Gion's deep love and worry for him.
Coming to this world and meeting a woman like Gion is one of the best things in his life.
If it weren't for the woman in front of him who had followed him wholeheartedly until now, he would probably have died long ago.
Stussy and he have a more master-servant relationship, and are loyal to Arthur.
The one who truly loved Arthur was Gion, who repeatedly disobeyed and hid naval orders and kept in touch with Arthur.
"I will only take the Four Emperors to Marinford. I will leave you the Three Disasters of the Beasts Pirates, the Three Generals of the Big Mom Pirates, and the 300,000 elite soldiers of Cooper and the Ice Blade with you. I will also arrange for Jinbei to lead his own race to attack warships and ships in order to prevent the Celestial Dragons from ordering the World Alliance to attack me."
Arthur told Gion all of the plans he had in mind.
But this is far from enough. The World Alliance has too many troops. With his current notoriety and under the call of the justice of the Celestial Dragons, they will definitely send out their entire army to deal with Arthur.
In this battle, Arthur never thought of turning back, nor did he think of saving anyone or his own bloodline in the war.
Only the deep obsession in his heart drives him.
"If you have considered it so carefully and are ready for a fierce battle, I have nothing to say. After all, once you make a decision, even the God of Hell will not be able to change your mind."
As Arthur's woman, Gion naturally understands his temperament best.
Wipe away the tears and put on a firm smile again.
"If the King of Hell tries to stop me, I will kill him as well, Gion." Arthur added, and his calloused fingers immediately tightened the hilt of the knife at his waist.
"I only ask one thing of you, Arthur. Yaluo is your bloodline and possesses your younger side. If the situation is favorable, you must show mercy."
Arthur took Gion's advice to heart. He put on a black robe that was convenient for fighting, took the Ice Dragon Scabbard and walked out of the bedroom.
"The world will know that everything they did to me will be punished as it should be, Gion." Arthur stared at the door in front of him with a firm gaze, thinking:
"They will understand what despair is. This is a grand massacre. The devil that has been hidden in my heart for a long time is no longer suppressed and seems to be about to be completely released."
In Marinford, the light cannot break through the clouds. Under the gloomy weather, the solemn and sacred headquarters of justice is surrounded by a tense atmosphere.
Elite naval forces from all over the world who broke through the sea blockade gathered here, totaling 6 people.
"..." Below the execution platform where Ace was being executed, Akainu sat in the middle position with his hat lowered, shaking his head to look left and right.
Originally, there were only two generals and one lieutenant general sitting in the seats of the three generals.
They are the hero Garp, Kuzan, and him.
"If your injury is a problem, you don't have to force yourself to join the battle, Kuzan."
Akainu looked at Kuzan, whose injuries had not yet healed, his body wrapped in bandages, and he looked at the sea ahead with a gloomy face.
"Without me... Whitebeard can cause us heavy losses with just one move. You should be very clear about the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit."
The disparity in combat power is too great... According to the latest news from the navy, Arthur actually relied on his own influence to get Big Mom and Kaido to get involved in this mess.
Once their domineering aura spreads in Marinford, it will become an absolute counter-trend.
Noon is approaching and the time of execution is approaching.
Sixty thousand navy soldiers are ready to go in Neiwan Square.
There are 8 giant lieutenants.
The seven strongest human weapons of the Seraphs, whose prototype weapons are the Shichibukai.
One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
There are countless famous generals and officers from all over the world. They are the elite among the elite who have fought their way out of the encirclement of the sea and arrived here.
"Well... After so many years, how powerful has that guy become?" On the execution platform, Zhan Guo was panicked and anxious.
Even with a combat force of this magnitude, he still felt a lot of pressure.
"Where is Blackbeard?! Why can't I see any news about him at this time?"
Zhan Guo asked the two officers waiting behind him about the situation.
The fighting power of the Seven Warlords of the Sea was too small, with only two agreeing and one showing up.
The one who showed up was Bartholomew Bear, whose human consciousness had been completely wiped out.
"Report... Marshal, he seems to have gone to push the city..."
"What?! What is that guy's purpose at this time?!"
When Zhan Guo heard the news, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Inner bend, where 60,000 troops are concentrated.
Yaluo, Kobe and others stared at the sea nervously.
"Isn't it too quiet... a little too scary, Yaluo?" Coby was already extremely panicked before the battle even started.
However, at this moment, Yaluo's eyes were on Fire Fist Ace, who was being escorted step by step to the execution platform in a miserable state.
When he was taken up, he knelt down immediately, with his feet and hands tightly bound with seastone chains.
"It's a war that's changing the world, and everyone is extremely excited..." said Bellemere, who is at the same psychological level as Coby.
There was already excessive tension before the war even started.
