Chapter 674 Fishing
...
Navy Headquarters
As the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' Second Division, Ace the Fire Fist, who was the fuse of this war, appeared on the execution platform, all the soldiers in the square and the people around the world who were watching the live broadcast clenched their fists, their palms sweated, and their hearts suddenly rose to their throats.
"Cough cough!"
Sengoku walked up to Ace, faced the live camera, picked up the loudspeaker Den Den Mushi, cleared his throat and began to speak.
"Before the execution begins, there is something I want to tell you!"
Everyone turned their eyes to Admiral Sengoku on the stage.
"Portgas D. Ace! First of all, let's talk about the significance of our navy going to so much trouble to publicly execute this man!"
Below the execution platform, Karp had a struggling expression.
"Ace, please tell me your father's name!"
Everyone was stunned and confused as to why Marshal Zhan Guo asked this question at this time.
"My dad is Whitebeard!"
Ace answered affirmatively.
"wrong!"
Zhan Guo continued to question.
"There's nothing wrong! It's Whitebeard, and only Whitebeard! No one else!!"
Ace yelled.
"About twenty-two years ago, we searched all over the world because we had intelligence that the man might have left behind flesh and blood in this world!"
"Although we have carefully questioned many newly born and unborn babies and their parents, and when someone blocked our investigation, we became more convinced that the intelligence we obtained was likely true, but unfortunately, we still got nothing in the end!"
"Because of your great mother, Portgas D. Luju, she has carefully planned a conspiracy beyond the comprehension of ordinary people and successfully concealed it from the eyes of the whole world!"
"In order to successfully let you escape the investigation, that woman actually kept the fetus in her belly for a full 20 months! As a result, she died of exhaustion shortly after giving birth to you."
"No one could have imagined that a baby who inherited the blood of the most evil man in the world would be born one year and three months after his death!"
Sengoku looked down at Ace and continued.
"The baby I'm talking about is you! And you can't not know it!"
"Your biological father is the Pirate King! Gol D. Roger!"
The high-hanging naval flag fluttered in the wind. The sea breeze blew Sengoku's cloak and Ace's curly black hair.
In the square, the sailors were stunned.
"What? Roger?'s son?!"
"Fffffffff, I see. This is getting more and more interesting! I am so lucky to be able to witness the public execution of the Pirate King's bloodline again!"
Doflamingo threw his head back and laughed.
...
Chambord Islands.
"this…"
"Fire Fist Ace is actually the son of Pirate King Gol D. Roger?!"
"Still alive? The bloodline of the Pirate King! How terrifying!"
"This is big news!"
"Quick! Send the message back!"
"We need to get ahead of other newspapers and notify the headquarters to publish the special edition first!"
The media reporters in front of the live broadcast screen of the Sabaody Archipelago were instantly excited and began to take action.
Bird's Nest Island
In the castle
"Let's send out the newspapers that were printed in advance, and let those tabloids chase after us and eat our dust! Haha! This war should be able to publish several issues of big news."
Looking at the live broadcast footage shot by his own seagulls, Morgans smiled happily with his chicken paws raised.
"Ha ha ha, this is not big news, I already knew about it!"
"Okay, stop showing off. Are you ready for whatever the captain tells you to do?"
Ginny slapped the bird on the head and asked more questions afterwards.
"Ah, don't hit me on the head, big sister. We still have to rely on it to work! Isn't it just to ensure that this war can be broadcast live in its entirety? Everything is ready, and it will definitely not delay Master Gel's business!"
Morgans patted the chicken breast and assured.
...
"Two years ago, you began to emerge under the name of your mother, Portgas D. When we noticed you, Whitebeard had already protected you and trained you as the next Pirate King!"
"No! I joined the Whitebeard Pirates in order to make Father Whitebeard the Pirate King!"
Ace argued loudly.
"That's just your wishful thinking! In fact, it is Whitebeard's protection that has allowed you to live until now!"
"You are worthy of the bloodline of the Pirate King. If I continue to leave you alone, you might really live up to your talent and qualifications and become the next troublesome existence standing at the top of the pirates!"
"So for our navy, your public execution today is of great significance! For this! We will not hesitate to start a full-scale war with the Whitebeard Pirates!!"
"... "
"Roar, roar, roar! Justice will prevail! The navy will prevail!"
Zhan Guo's passionate speech successfully excited the navy officers in the audience, and made them more convinced that they were the righteous side in this war.
Before Zhan Guo had time to be happy, he received an emergency call. After he answered the call, he asked anxiously.
"Hey! It's me, Sengoku!...Have you found any trace of the Whitebeard Pirates?"
"Report to Marshal Sengoku! It's the Gate of Justice!"
"The Gate of Justice?"
"The Gate of Justice flew away!!"
"What!!"
Zhan Guo's eyes widened.
"come yet?"
Zhan Guo quickly calmed down, picked up the expander and gave orders to all the navy in the square.
"All troops on alert! The Whitebeard Pirates may have just passed through the Gate of Justice!"
"Oh Yaki!!"
On the execution platform, Ace's face turned pale instantly when he heard this.
"Gudong!"
The 100,000 marines in the square suddenly became silent. It was so quiet that the only sounds could be heard: the sound of waves hitting the shore, the sound of people around swallowing, and the sound of their own rapid heartbeats!
The wind stopped, and the fluttering naval flag drooped down weakly.
"It's so quiet!"
Hancock frowned as she looked at the fog that suddenly appeared on the clear sea surface.
"Fffffffff, it's so quiet it's a little unnatural!"
Doflamingo put his hands on his hips, looking impatient.
"Woo~~!"
The shrill alarm on the watchtower was sounded!
"coming!!"
"It has appeared! It's the large fleet of Whitebeard's pirate group! A total of 43 pirate ships! They are all pirate groups that travel the New World! So far, there has been no sign of the Moby Dick or Whitebeard!!"
"Everyone on alert! Get ready for battle!"
The guns on the harbor were turning and aiming in a hurry.
"They're coming! Request to open fire!"
"Wait a minute! Whitebeard hasn't shown up yet, he must have some conspiracy..."
"Boom boom boom boom!!"
As soon as the commander finished speaking, he heard the roar of artillery fire! In an instant, hundreds of dense shells were fired towards the pirate fleet in the distance!
"Great! It's worth the time spent preparing for this. The firepower is incredible! Ah! No! Who told you to fire without permission? Didn't I tell you to wait?"
The commander roared at the Den Den Mushi in his hand.
"We didn't fire, sir!"
Inside the artillery position, the reprimanded marines looked aggrieved.
"Ahahaha! Let me show you the power of my cannonballs!"
Franky has turned into a super turret with more than a dozen huge gun barrels and began to fire frantically at the fleet on the sea!
Hoddy Jones dived into the water, exposed his dorsal fin, and swam quickly towards the fleet!
"Boom!"
The captains of Whitebeard's large fleet all used their skills to intercept the incoming shells, and the sound of explosions was endless!
"Quick! Someone fell into the water! Help save him!"
Under Franky's intensive and powerful bombardment, as well as Hodie Jones's underwater maneuvers, more than a dozen pirate ships soon lost power and began to leak and sink.
"Great, so strong! One person can withstand the artillery fire of more than a dozen warships!"
"It's really foul to attack a ship from the bottom of the sea!"
"Is this the strength of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?!"
"Damn it! These pirate scums! Running dogs of the World Government! They're trying so hard to please their master!"
"Stop cursing and move to other ships! This ship is about to sink!"
The pirates were cursing and swearing, while the marines were in high spirits and cheering loudly.
"Shoot! Shoot!"
The commander didn't care about anything else and quickly ordered the artillery to fire, otherwise it would be too late and their artillery battalion would be useless!
"Hey, hey, hey, this doesn't seem to be what we agreed on, right?"
On the side, Pedro's mouth twitched.
