Chapter 465: The Power of the Beast

Chapter 465: The Power of Beasts
"Brother Lu, we are here to save you!"

Yamato, who had her hair tied in a high ponytail, had a bright smile on her face and greeted Lu Li after many years.

Ten years have passed, and the girl has matured a lot in many ways, but her temperament is still bold. She wears a sleeveless kimono, showing her side breasts. On her seemingly delicate and fair shoulders, she carries a thick mace, which creates a sharp contrast.

There is no doubt that after ten years, plus Kaido's careful teaching after the reconciliation between father and daughter, Yamato's domineering and fruit ability are not comparable to his state two years later in the original work.

She was just a step slow, which is why she was taken advantage of by her father and Fujitora. That was why she could only stay beside Lu Li and be careful to guard against the enemy's sneak attacks.

"Mr. Lu, are you okay?"

Jin also turned around to look at Lu Li and expressed his concern. However, just by taking a look at Lu Li's detailed condition, he felt uncomfortable.

It was not because of Lu Li’s bloody appearance on the battlefield, but because of Lu Li’s gray hair.

Kaido glanced sideways and observed Lu Li's situation. He also noticed this, and veins on his forehead were exposed. "World Government, you are so brave..."

How old is Lu Li? In their opinion, Lu Li is only in his early thirties, and Lu Li's current strength seems to be above the level of a vice-emperor.

Such a strong man should have strong vitality, just like Kaido, who is already 57 years old, but still has a head full of black hair and looks very energetic and strong.

Lu Li's hair is already gray, and one can imagine how long he has been tortured by the World Government.

And they developed steadily in the New World without encountering any trouble from the World Government, which showed that Lu Li had gone through thousands of tortures and had never betrayed any information about the Beasts Pirates.

Lu Li felt confused as everyone was looking at him with 'heartbroken' eyes, and thought to himself, nothing had happened to him, so why were everyone so excited?

After casting a distressed look at Lu Li, many masters of the Beasts Pirates turned their gazes towards the navy, this time with a look full of hostility and murderous intent. The flames of anger seemed to be able to burn Marinford to ashes.

"It's a good thing that Mr. Lu is still alive."

Fujitora also stood up straight at this time, holding the supreme sword in his hand, and staring straight ahead with his blind eyes, "But it is not right for us to not fight back after being bullied."

At this moment, everyone on the battlefield of Marinford was completely shocked by the sudden appearance of the Beasts Pirates.

"How can it be!?"

Marshal Sengoku was the most shocked and upset person, "Didn't the Intelligence Department say that Kaido was confronting Red Hair in the New World half a day ago!?"

The New World is very far away from the Navy Headquarters. Even with the best ship and helmsman, it would take at least a week to get here if it sails normally. Therefore, Sengoku never considered the possibility that the Red Hair Pirates and the Beasts Pirates would come to help.

If he had known about the risk, he would never have agreed to go to war with the Whitebeard Pirates.

"It's really scary... The Four Emperors Kaido, Flame King, Plague Queen, Drought Jack, Fujitora, the Flying Six... Even the masters of the Beasts Pirates are all out."

Kizaru crawled out of the ruins and spoke with a serious expression, blood still oozing from the corners of his mouth as he spoke. It was obvious that he had just hastily taken on Kaido's Thunder Bagua, which had injured his internal organs.

"The situation is not good..."

Aokiji was not much better off, and that was because they both took the attack at the same time. Otherwise, with their attention focused on Lu Li, they would be suddenly hit by the stick of the Four Emperors Kaido, and would at least be seriously injured.

At this time, Aokiji felt gloomy and even regretted that he had been slacking off at the beginning. If he had used all his strength earlier and ignored the friendship with his mentor to kill Straw Hat Luffy and others, he probably wouldn't have ended up in such a passive situation.

At present, Whitebeard is not dead and has not even been seriously injured. The captains of the Whitebeard Pirates are all alive and well, and Ace has escaped.

In addition, with the arrival of Kaido's Beasts Pirates on the battlefield, their apparent combat power alone has been completely overwhelmed by the pirates.

Marshal Sengoku, who was in charge of commanding the battlefield, was in a difficult situation at this time. As the chief marshal of the navy and the commander of this war, he knew at this time that he would be defeated if he went into battle with the two Four Emperors head-on, because they had already lost two of their generals.

But as a marshal, he can't say ceasefire now, right? Besides, if he wants to ceasefire, will Kaido agree?

Looking at Kaido's furious expression, he doesn't look like someone who can be negotiated with.

Unlike Whitebeard, Sengoku believes that Whitebeard is essentially a rational person who can communicate. Once Ace escapes, as long as their navy does not chase him, the Whitebeard Pirates will retreat on their own.

But who is Kaido? He is a well-known tough guy on the sea, and like Whitebeard, he protects his own people. In the early years, when Kaido's Beasts Pirates were not strong enough, he would swallow his anger. Today, he has brought his people to Marinford, so how can he let it go peacefully?
While Marshal Sengoku was hesitating, the Beasts Pirates had already started to move, and Kaido took the lead and rushed towards the two navy admirals.

Kaido was not interested in dealing with the minions. If he was going to fight, he would only fight the strong. He transformed into a half-dragon, half-human form, surrounded by top-level domineering aura, and attacked with a Thunderous Bagua.

Aokiji and Kizaru have not received any orders from Sengoku yet, but they also know that the current situation is totally out of control and they can only fight passively.

In the back, Lu Li released a burst of thunder, combined with the Soul Eater's true damage flash, killing all the explorers of the Rune Adventure Group who had just been pinned to the ground by Fujitora's sword and were trying to get up, and also dropped several treasure chests of the dead.

"Kaido!!! Are you going to go to war with the World Government!?"

Sengoku yelled at this, trying to calm Kaido down, hoping that this war could end peacefully.

Now it is no longer a question of whether Ace will be rescued, but the fact that the two imperial groups are fighting here with their already severely damaged Marine Headquarters, and they may be wiped out!

You have to know that this battle is still being broadcast live. If the people of the world see that the real overlord of the sea, the guardian of world peace, the navy was completely wiped out by pirates, how much panic will it cause?

How many people who yearn for freedom will choose to go out to sea and become pirates as a result of this war?

Marshal Sengoku couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he thought of the chain reaction that would follow. He was distracted and nearly beaten to death by Whitebeard's punch. It was Garp who came to his rescue and saved his life.

"War?"

Kaido's voice was deep and domineering. He glanced at Sengoku and said, "The war started when you were chasing my people on Sky Island."

As he said this, he attacked Aokiji and Kizaru without mercy, swinging his mace wildly and fiercely, making it difficult for the two admirals, who had already consumed a lot of energy, to resist.

At this moment, the navy had gone through many twists and turns, and the soldiers were a little numb. Even the brave soldiers were not prepared to fight against the two major pirate groups at the same time. In addition, the previous battle with the Whitebeard Pirates had already exhausted the physical strength of many people. How could they possibly defeat the fresh troops of the Beasts Pirates at this time?
On the high platform behind the Marine Headquarters, Rafael looked at the Beasts Pirates who were approaching with a terribly gloomy expression, "This is what I'm worried about..."

Unlike the natives, he knew that there was a way to quickly reach the Marinford battlefield in the New World.

He was afraid that Lu Li had contacted the Beasts Pirates in advance and called for deadly reinforcements.

What made him most uncomfortable was that the forbidden spell to subdue demons did not achieve the expected effect. Lu Li had a bloodline or equipment that made him immune to control, so that Lu Li still retained a certain combat effectiveness after being hit by the forbidden spell.

As a result, the black group he sent to test Lu Li was directly killed, and Lu Li also got several high-quality devil fruits and a large number of inheritance crystals for free.

At this time, they had consumed more than half of their soul energy in releasing the forbidden spell. If according to their estimation, Lu Li was disabled and the people on the battlefield were almost exhausted, it would be just right for them to go down and reap the rewards.

But the problem is that the Beasts Pirates are coming, and they are all fresh troops.

Not to mention Kaido, he has both tankiness and output. Fujitora himself is also at the admiral level. Even Kaido's daughter Yamato looks much stronger than in the original work, and she is not someone to be trifled with.

Due to the sudden appearance of Kaido and others, all the mid-to-melee mages who had raided Lu Li were wiped out, and the situation suddenly became extremely bad.

"Whitebeard, you've already rescued Ace, why don't you retreat!?"

Sengoku, who was fighting with Whitebeard, shouted, obviously very anxious, because under the leadership of Kaido, the new force of the Beasts Pirates was like a tiger among a flock of sheep, and the navy could not stop them at all.

The trend of defeat is already apparent. If the situation cannot be reversed, I am afraid that the navy will be completely wiped out today.

While calling out, Zhan Guo also glanced at Rafar behind him. He had an impression of the vice admiral and couldn't understand why the other party had such magical and powerful power, but he hoped that the other party could stand up and help the navy reverse the decline.

As for why the other party wanted to hide his power, he had some guesses, because the ability he just used seemed like a magic circle.

As the top leader, Zhan Guo probably knew the abilities of the Five Elders. The Five Elders could also teleport with the help of something like a magic circle. In Zhan Guo's view, the ability like the magic circle was the "technology" of the Celestial Dragons. He guessed that Rafar and others were the hidden players planted by the Celestial Dragons in the navy.

"withdraw?"

Whitebeard had a smile on his face, and seemed to be very happy to see Sengoku in pain. "At this age, I didn't expect that I could still fight with my old companions, just like the day in the Valley of the Gods."

Hearing Whitebeard mention the Valley of the Gods again, Sengoku became even more anxious. He suddenly remembered that Whitebeard and Kaido were both members of the Rocks Pirates, and both of them participated in the battle that day.

Now there is one more time bomb on the battlefield. He now wants to slap himself. He doesn't know why he came up with this bad idea of ​​broadcasting live to the whole world. As a result, the video Den Den Mushi is now controlled by pirates, and the broadcasting room has also been occupied by pirates, so he can't even stop the broadcast.

"Even though I didn't call them here, there's no reason for me to leave on my own."

Whitebeard waved the Kusunokiri in his hand and attacked Sengoku and Garp fiercely. Because the battle line was too long, his sons had not yet returned to the ship.

Moreover, as he said, he didn't want Kaido to help, so he had rejected Kaido's proposal long ago and entrusted the territory in the New World to the other party.

But Kaido came to help after hearing the news that Lu Li was still alive. This had nothing to do with him. He couldn't say anything to stop the other party from saving his companions.

Although in his eyes, Lu Li didn't need anyone else to save him, he was a little guy with incredible fighting power.

But since Kaido is here, they are basically on a united front no matter what. The two were on the same ship back then, and the natural disaster helped him, so Kaido was also here to lend a hand. If he had evacuated alone with his sons, he would not be Whitebeard.

Right now, no matter whether Kaido wants to take Lu Li away after making a big fuss or wants to flatten the Marine Headquarters, he can only stay with him to the end.

"All lieutenant generals and the Seven Warlords of the Sea, lead the soldiers to shrink the defense line!"

Zhan Guo was sweating profusely, "Activate the encirclement wall in the rear as a line of defense!"

The encirclement wall tactic was originally intended to be used by them to encircle the Whitebeard Pirates at the beginning of the battle, but due to Lu Li's intervention they missed the opportunity. Later, due to the fierce fighting, the encirclement walls on the three front sides were destroyed underground.

Currently, only the encirclement wall behind the Navy Headquarters is still usable, but Sengoku never dreamed that they would be reduced to using the encirclement wall for defense.

"Kaido..."

After hearing the order, Gekko Moriah, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, looked at Kaido with complicated hatred in his eyes. He had bravely ventured into the New World and fought with Kaido, but after being defeated, all his subordinates were killed. He was disheartened and returned to a safe place to play badly.

Seeing a group of masters besieging Kaido, Gekko Moriah once again aroused his fighting spirit and rushed to the battlefield where Kaido was, "Kaido!!! I'm here to avenge you..."

Before Moriah could finish his words, Kaido casually swung his stick backwards, smashing Moriah's fat body into a dent and hammering it into the ground, leaving no sound.

Kaido turned his head to look at Moria with a look of confusion on his face, "Who are you?"

"So awesome!!! Is this Brother Lu's captain?"

Luffy, who had already run to a relatively safe area, saw this scene, his eyes sparkled and he couldn't help but praise.

Because Moria was a powerful enemy whom he had defeated with great effort some time ago, but he didn't expect that he would be defeated by the other party with just one blow.

"Moria was once a great hero... It's a pity that he wasted his time. I'm afraid Kaido has forgotten that he had such an opponent."

Ivankov, who was following Luffy, looked at Moria, who was stuck on the ground with his legs twitching and became a funny character, and felt that if he didn't make progress, he would regress.

"The Four Emperors..."

At this time, Crocodile fell down after killing a group of pursuers. He looked at Kaido, who was facing two admirals with unparalleled appearance, with a gloomy face, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Not until he actually saw these heroes fighting with all their might did he realize the gap between himself and the top.
