Chapter 479 Asking for help
"Lieutenant General Xuanlong! We have been attacked by pirates. The pirates are too strong. We need your support. They seem to be here to hijack the ship and rescue people. Please support us!"
As soon as Barnett picked up the microphone, Den Den Mushi opened its mouth and spoke. Its tone was a little panicked, and its face imitated the lieutenant general of the branch. The expression of Den Den Mushi looked very frightened!
The branch vice admiral naturally recognized the Big Mom Pirates' logo, but he didn't tell him this information because he was afraid that Wick would be afraid that Big Mom would not come to support him.
Moreover, he said deliberately that the pirates were here to rob people. Now the two ships were still in the bombardment stage, and he could see nothing. It was just that the prisoners on the warship were captured by Wick, and the military merit also belonged to Wick. He said this in order to make Wick pay more attention to him and rescue him.
In the final analysis, he was scared to death. The person on the opposite pirate ship was the second in command of the Big Mom Pirates. You could tell how strong he was by reading the newspaper. He was definitely unstoppable. Now they were actively attacking his warship, which meant they were not friendly. So he had to trap Vic, the strongest man closest to him, otherwise he would most likely sink to the bottom of the sea and his way out would be cut off.
Katakuri chose to take action two days after tracking the branch vice admiral. During this period, the distance between the pirate ship and Victor's warship was already very far, and they sailed in the opposite direction for two days.
At this time, the branch vice admiral was isolated and helpless. He was not close to Vic's warships, the naval headquarters, and the Judicial Island. After he finished his work, he could leave calmly and return to the New World.
There is nothing wrong with Katakuri's decision. Anyone with a normal brain would think so, but they don't fully understand Vic.
"You guys try to delay first, I'll be right over, hold on!"
Vic flashed in front of Barnett, said something, put away the Den Den Mushi, and then turned into lightning and disappeared on the spot.
Vic was not coveting the military merit that he could gain by capturing Mora. Mora was just a nobody now, and Vic didn't care about his insignificant military talent at all.
The main reason is that he doesn't want the Big Mom Pirates to continue to grow. The two sides are destined to fight each other in the future. How can he watch the enemy become stronger and do nothing? How can this be possible? He doesn't want the Mirror-Mirror Fruit to fall into Big Mom's hands.
Although no one knows who the pirates who came to attack are, as long as Mora does not stay in Impel Down, he may appear in Big Mom's territory, which is something Vic does not want to see.
The secondary reason was that Vic didn't want to see his colleagues being killed by pirates. Although many navy soldiers died every day, as long as they were not far away from him, he would still save them if he could, not to mention other reasons.
Vic's disappearance did not cause any commotion to Rebecca and the others, but it was the first time that the new Marines saw it, and they were very surprised!
They had seen Rebecca and the others practice the Six-style Shave and Moon Step, so they were even more surprised by a move like Vic's that could make them disappear directly. This also made them admire Vic, the lieutenant admiral of the headquarters, even more. The power of Lieutenant Admiral Xuanlong was beyond their imagination.
Rebecca and the others were not worried about Vic's safety. In the first half of the battle, there were really few people who could hurt him. What they were more worried about was the branch lieutenant general. Even though Vic's speed was abnormal, it would take several days for a warship to sail. They were still afraid that the battle would be over when Vic arrived!
……
Vic was traveling very fast. After transforming into a lightning element, he shuttled through various layers of clouds in the sky. His path was also very clear, as the branch lieutenant general had told them about it before.
It's easy to tell without him saying it, there are only a few routes to Impel Down, and he still has the Den Den Mushi in his hand to ask, so it didn't take Vic long to find it. Most of the time was spent using his Observation Haki to search for the specific place.
However, by the time Vic appeared in the sky above the battle between the warship and the pirate ship, the battle was already coming to an end. The distance was so far that it was impossible for Vic to teleport over there, and it would still take some time.
With Katakuri's strength, this time is enough for him to capture the warship. Many marines on the warship have been drained, and the middle of the branch fell at Cracker's feet, and the blood dyed the deck red!
Katakuri stood on the deck of the pirate ship, looking at the battlefield in front of him expressionlessly, and it seemed that he was not taking part in the battle. Mora was standing beside him with a look of relief on his face, his mouth opening and closing as if he was saying something.
"Find the key to the seastone handcuffs, then sink the warship and we'll go back to the New World!"
Katakuri saw that the matter was almost resolved, so he told his younger brother and sister and Homies that he also saw the admiral of the naval branch using Den Den Mushi to ask for help, but he didn't care. Who could come to rescue at this distance? After the matter was resolved, the warship was sunk, and the people who came to rescue couldn't even find the location of the incident, let alone chase them.
"understood!"
Cracker said disapprovingly, and then stabbed the vice admiral lying on the ground with the broadsword in his hand. If Katakuri was not his most powerful brother, he would have ignored him. Smoothie did not answer, she was looking for delicious food.
Just when Cracker's broadsword was about to pierce the back of the marine in front of him, he felt numb all over, and then his whole body began to twitch, and the broadsword in his hand was thrown out by his shaking arms.
The man knelt directly on the deck, with a crooked mouth, slanted eyes and a burnt face. Of course, no one could see his face because his real body was hidden in the biscuit armor. This was what Cracker didn't understand before he fainted. He was already in the biscuit armor, so how could he be struck by lightning?
Why was he sure he was struck by lightning? Of course, it was the sound of thunder that reached his ears after he was struck by lightning. He cursed in his heart why he was so unlucky to be struck by lightning? Wasn't the sky clear just now? When did the climate in the paradise change so much?
Katakuri looked solemnly at the place where Cracker fell. There was a figure there, a figure he least wanted to see. Although the figure was facing away from him, the figure and clothes were almost the same as what he saw in the newspaper!
But the cloak on his back was different, the fluttering cuffs were black. Vice Admiral Xuanlong of the Navy Headquarters had arrived, and he had arrived so quickly. With one blow, his brother Cracker lost his combat effectiveness. His heart was already lifted!
Mora, who was standing next to Katakuri, was even more frightened when he saw Vic's back. He probably would never forget this back for the rest of his life. He used a trick to escape into the mirror world with great difficulty, and was just about to come out of another mirror to check the situation, but was instantly found by this person and knocked unconscious!
The speed was too scary. He had just been rescued and that man came again. How could he not be afraid? Mora hid behind Katakuri and did not dare to look at Vic. If it were not for the seastone handcuffs on his hands that prevented him from using his ability, he would definitely go into the mirror world and would not come out in a short time.
