Chapter 459 What did they do to Lu Li?

Chapter 459 What did they do to Lu Li?
Lu Li's sudden outburst instantly killed Green Bull, the navy admiral.

For a moment, the whole place was in an uproar, because of the strong domineering color released by Lu Li just now, plus the deterrent power of Mo Lin, most people were controlled for a second, attracting their attention to the battlefield where Lu Li was.

That's why Green Bull's death was so deeply rooted in people's hearts. The pirates were shocked, and the morale of the navy suffered a devastating blow.

The war had already lasted for quite some time, and even though the pirates were in high spirits in order to save Ace and were following Whitebeard's steps to advance, the navy camp was still able to maintain its morale.

Although they were retreating, they were shrinking their defense line in an orderly manner, or they could be said to be luring the enemy deep into their territory, in order to completely annihilate this group of pirates.

The execution of Ace was not only for political significance, but also for greater strategic significance, which was to use the war to kill Whitebeard, the legendary pirate who dominated the New World.

Before the battle, although the Marines were nervous, no one would question their side's victory.

Think about it carefully, what is their lineup?
The four admirals, plus the naval hero and Marshal Sengoku, are not very familiar with the strength of the newly appointed admirals, but an admiral like Akainu can fight Whitebeard to a draw if taken out alone.

Why did the Whitebeard Pirates go to war with them?
The outcome of the war seemed to have been predetermined. Most Marines were only worried about their own safety and did not need to worry about the final outcome of the war.

But no one expected that the admiral, who had always been regarded as the symbol of the navy's invincibility, would be killed with a single sword strike after Lu Li transformed into that devil-like form!
This is the admiral of the navy, the highest combat force of the navy headquarters!
Green Bull's death caused many navy officers to panic and waver. Sensing Lu Li's terrifying aura, many of them were already shaking with fear and couldn't even hold their weapons steady. They wanted to flee the battlefield.

Not to mention the navy, even the pirates were trembling and naturally feeling uncomfortable because of the unbridled release of Lu Li's domineering aura and the ominous purple-black spiritual pressure.

"idiot……"

Akainu's face was gloomy. He glanced at the dead Green Bull and locked his eyes with Lu Li. "What on earth did they do to you? This isn't the ability of the fruit, is it?"

As an admiral of the navy and the only strong man on the battlefield willing to fight, Akainu knew that he had to hold up the situation at this time, otherwise the navy would be defeated.

He is fighting on the front line now, and it is impossible for him to be a commander and kill deserters. Moreover, once the morale is completely suppressed, killing a few deserters will be of no avail.

Facing Akainu's question, Lu Li said expressionlessly: "From this perspective, I should thank you. At least I have gained enough power to fight against the World Government."

"Against the World Government?"

Akainu sneered, and his expression became firm, "Pirate, don't think that killing Green Bull is trampling on the justice of the navy. I will kill all the pirates who come to attack today!"

As he spoke, within the range of his fruit awakening, the magma of the earth boiled and rolled, transforming into a group of underworld dogs that rushed towards Lu Li.

At the same time, the volcano behind him erupted, and a large amount of lava and fire columns shot up into the sky, and then fell towards Lu Li with a huge impact force.

A tall wall of lava rose up behind Akainu, obscuring Lu Li's domineering aura and spiritual pressure transmission to a certain extent, making the navy standing behind him feel a lot better.

The sailors saw how powerful Akainu was. His firm tone seemed to give them strength, making them tighten their weapons again and focus on fighting the pirates in front of them again.

"Brother Lu is really amazing. He can even defeat the admiral of the navy!"

In the distance, Luffy, who was about to run to the execution platform, saw Green Bull being killed by Lu Li and laughed happily.

Jinbei, who was following Luffy, had a strange look on his face, wondering if Lu Li was really the vice-captain of the emperor? He actually killed the admiral in an instant with his full power burst. This is simply the combat power of the Four Emperors, right?
It can be imagined that if Lu Li returned to the Beasts Pirates alive, the Beasts Pirates would become the true king of the New World.

In addition, the Whitebeard Pirates will be hurt in this battle, and I'm afraid Kaido will not be far from the position of Pirate King.

"Luffy, pay attention to the enemies ahead. I'll help you clear the way and kill them!"

Jinbei just glanced at Lu Li twice and then he calmed down. After all, he was not a top master in a battlefield of this level, and it was already very difficult for him to accompany Luffy to rush over here.

Different from the surprise on the pirates' side and Luffy's happiness, the high-ranking navy officers near the execution platform all had terribly gloomy expressions.

Especially Marshal Sengoku who was fighting Whitebeard, with veins on his forehead exposed, obviously furious, "What kind of research have you done?!"

This sentence was a roar from the heart, because the ability that Lu Li just demonstrated was something that even he, the Marshal of the Warring States Period, had never heard of. This meant that there were some things in the research required by the Tianlong family that even he didn't know.

Even if Lu Li had excellent talent, it was impossible for him to reach the level of a general or even an emperor in just ten years of imprisonment. It was conceivable how much "technology and hard work" those people had added to Lu Li.

Judging from the experimental results, it’s hard to say about the elusive Vegapunk, but the other scientists involved are probably ecstatic, right?

But the target of their sword-testing was the admiral of their navy. Who could stand that?

Especially in this situation, the loss of a naval admiral would be fatal to the war situation, and this level of loss was completely beyond his expectations.

He is not like Akainu who has a sour face and behaves in a cold manner, but in fact he cares about the life and death of his navy colleagues and is an "absolute justice".

To put it bluntly, as long as the strategic goal can be achieved, he can accept four or five hundred thousand or sixty thousand of the 100,000 elite navy soldiers in this battle, but the death of the admiral is not within his estimation. This is a matter of face for the navy and the world government. The death of Green Bull is a slap in the face to the world government, and it will also seriously affect the deterrent power of the navy.

"Haha... Zhan Guo, you are anxious."

Whitebeard waved the Kumokiri, activated the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, and knocked Sengoku away, his tone full of sarcasm, "It's just that a newly promoted admiral died. Before the Valley of the Gods, I didn't see you being so soft-hearted."

"Whitebeard!!! Watch your words!"

Marshal Sengoku became alert upon hearing Whitebeard's words, and his tone became even more anxious, and he attacked in the form of a giant Buddha, attacking Whitebeard frantically, obviously not wanting Whitebeard to mention this matter.

It was not until now that he suddenly realized that going to war with the Whitebeard Pirates might have been a mistake. It was not a matter of miscalculating the difference in combat power, but that this guy Whitebeard... knew too much.

As a remnant of the previous era, Whitebeard once hung out on Rocks' ship, and was also present at the God Valley incident.

As for the destruction of the Rocks Pirates, Sengoku didn't care. After all, the inside story of this matter was no secret among the top navy officials. It would just reveal that the navy defeated Rocks by cooperating with the Pirate King Gol D. Roger, which was not very glorious.

But from the sarcasm in Whitebeard's words just now, he knew that Whitebeard was obviously not talking about the fact that Kamisama defeated the Pirate King, but this special node of the Kamisama incident, and the "entertainment activities" they carried out in Kamisama. Before the Kamisama incident 36 years ago, the "evil" of the World Government was quite obvious.

At that time, for entertainment, the Celestial Dragons would destroy a country every three years and hold a contest to eliminate the indigenous people of non-member countries.

This matter had been kept under the table for a long time, and the navy members who were promoted in the new era had no idea about it. People like Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji were still foolishly thinking that although the World Government was a bit corrupt, it was also just to protect civilians.

But both Garp and he, who had survived the old era, knew how dirty the real Celestial Dragons were and how disgraceful the past of the World Government was.

If Whitebeard talked about the events of 36 years ago during this war broadcast live around the world, it would probably be worse than if he said something like "ONE PIECE actually exists."

Saying that the great secret treasure really exists will only attract a new group of pirates to the sea, and at most it will put more pressure on the navy.

However, if the evils of the World Government were to be exposed in front of citizens all over the world, there might be a wave of backlash around the world. If the Revolutionary Army were to take action again, the World Government might really be overthrown.

"Oh? Zhan Guo, you must be mistaken. I am not your subordinate. Is there anything I should be careful about?"

Whitebeard had a smile on his face, he was not the type to like to manipulate others in such matters, but Sengoku had already used a dirty trick against him, using a trick to deceive his stupid son Squard into stabbing him.

He was indeed broad-minded, but that was towards his son and family. Facing his enemies, he certainly would not mind what Zhan Guo did.

Therefore, seeing that Zhan Guo was so anxious, he just mentioned what happened back then.

For him, whether the Celestial Dragons are evil or not has nothing to do with him. He went to war with the World Government only because the other party captured his eldest son Ace.

Now that the war has broken out, he certainly has no scruples. The navy won't let them have an easy time, so he's naturally happy to cause some trouble for the navy.

Now it seems that Sengoku is getting anxious and his offense and defense have lost their order. Garp, who was cooperating with Sengoku, is absent-minded and there is a tendency that Whitebeard may break through his defense line alone.

"Karp, cheer up, we have to stop him here!"

Sengoku said this with a serious expression, his words contained a double meaning, not only to stop Whitebeard from saving Ace, but also to stop Whitebeard from talking nonsense.

Simply put, Sengoku now has a strong desire to kill, and he must kill Whitebeard in this battle, otherwise Whitebeard will bring endless trouble to the World Government if he just raises his voice.

"What's the big deal? Just let him say whatever he wants. The World Government and the Celestial Dragons are shit."

Garp does not have as many concerns as Sengoku. He was unwilling to be promoted to admiral because he did not want to be directly under the Celestial Dragons. It was obvious that he was disgusted by what the Celestial Dragons had done.

He has no intention of maintaining the face of the world government, but he also has no behavior to change the status quo. In short, he is just giving up.

boom--

The collision between the two powerful men, Sengoku and Garp, and Whitebeard caused a strong shock. Even if several people intended to control the impact on one person, it inevitably affected the entire battlefield.

The ground of Marinford was cracked and shaking, and it felt like it was about to slide down and fall into the sea.

"Kizaru, Aokiji, how long are you going to lie there? Green Bull has already died in the battle!"

Sengoku shouted during the battle, his heart was really tired. In the end, he found that among the admirals, Akainu was the only one who had real strength and was fighting well.

Aokiji and Kizaru were a little serious just now, but after being beaten by Whitebeard, they seemed to have disappeared from the battlefield.

Seeing that the morale of the navy was low and Akainu, a master whom he believed to be the strongest among the three admirals, seemed to be struggling to deal with Lu Li alone, Sengoku could not tolerate it anymore.

"I really have no choice... My colleagues are dead, and it seems a bit unreasonable for me to lie down again."

A helpless voice sounded, and glaciers emerged from the cracks in the ground. Aokiji slid up from underneath as if defying gravity.

He held his neck with one hand and twisted it, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the other hand. It was obvious that he was not really acting, and he was indeed injured in the confrontation with Whitebeard just now.

On the other side, in the ruins of the building, the thick smoke that had been rolling for who knows how long finally dispersed, a ray of light flashed, the Eight-foot Mirror was activated, and after the light column passed through the channel, Kizaru's figure appeared on the battlefield.

"It's so scary. I really want to get off work and go back to have tea."

Kizaru brushed the dust off his clothes. He had just been knocked away by Whitebeard, and his injuries seemed to be less than Aokiji's. Only his clothes were dirty.

As he spoke, he kicked Luffy who had rushed to the execution platform, kicked Luffy up and sent him flying towards the battlefield where Lu Li was.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but just as Kizaru kicked Luffy away, a vice admiral’s deadly sword fell and slashed the air.

"This is really scary. Have they all been rushed in here?"

Kizaru spoke slowly, looking at Lu Li again, "Even Green Bull was hacked to death. Natural disasters are really terrible."

Kizaru kept saying how scary it was, but he kept kicking, kicking each of the team leaders under Whitebeard one by one.

Lu Li released a large amount of lightning in the battle with Akainu. Fortunately, Luffy is a rubber man and has a certain resistance. In addition, Lu Li turned off the passive ability of Soul Eater in time, so Luffy was not "electrocuted to death"

He caught Luffy with one hand and split Akainu's magma with a knife. He was speechless when he saw Kizaru's operation.

My goodness, this world really focuses too much on relationships.

It doesn't matter, pirates, you kicked them one by one, but Luffy, the grandson of Garp, you seemed to have kicked him away, but in fact you saved his life?
Lu Li also noticed before that Aokiji had clearly blocked Luffy once, and was holding an ice cone in his hand to stab Luffy's vitals, but he held it up for a long time without stabbing... until Luffy was rescued by Marco.
