Chapter 1170 Brutal War
The war was extremely brutal.
No one paid attention to the loss of low- and mid-level combat power.
The balance of the battle between the top forces has not been broken.
Since the beginning of the war, the losses of mid- and high-end combat capabilities of both sides have been extremely heavy.
One by one, naval and army generals died in battle.
There were also a large number of well-known pirates who turned into corpses, and each pirate group suffered considerable losses.
One pirate group after another was destroyed in the war.
It would be fine if the combat power was kept balanced.
However, the actions of the various superpowers have led to an imbalance in combat power on local battlefields.
In order to target the World Government, hunt down the Celestial Dragons and the forces of various Celestial Dragon families.
The pirates naturally have the upper hand in the area where they are, while in some areas the World Government has the upper hand.
The advantage brings greater casualties to the enemy.
This is a lose-lose decision.
So, they don't care about the pirates' losses.
Because what they did was to weaken the World Government. The pirates might have suffered heavy losses, but the World Government's losses were even greater.
To some extent, this situation is beneficial to the pirates.
Who cares about those pirate groups that have sacrificed important members?
The pirate groups, including many sea emperors, suffered heavy losses.
However, in terms of high-end combat power, the core members can take care of each other, so the losses are relatively small.
The pirate groups in the second and third echelons suffered the greatest losses.
They don't have such a deep foundation, and many pirate groups only have one captain who can be considered a strong man.
In war, swords are blind and no one will help them in times of danger, so it is difficult to free up hands.
The breath of killing permeated the entire battlefield. Yu Zhi Xilu was extremely excited and continued killing with the power of the transparent fruit.
Facing Shiryu who has the ability of invisibility, it would be difficult to resist without strong observation Haki.
As a killing swordsman with powerful swordsmanship, it is very difficult to completely resist Xiliu's attack.
People always make mistakes. Among dozens of attacks, Xiliu only needs to succeed once to establish an advantage and continue to accumulate.
Not far away, Lafitte was facing a strong man from Marijoa.
Perhaps because they had similar tastes and liked violence and killing, their battlefields were not far from each other and they would occasionally take care of each other.
The more outstanding the performance of the pirates, the more they will be targeted by the World Government.
Many members of the Tyrant Fleet displayed monstrous combat power and suffered many attacks.
Unfortunately, many powerful people supported each other like an iron wall and did not give the World Government any chance.
This is an effective way to reduce losses, and many major forces do this.
Shiryu is also a traitor from Impel Down.
The World Government naturally wants to kill Shiryu very much.
Some strong people can easily fight two people at the same time in a short period of time.
One or two fighters were specially selected to carry out targeted attacks on other pirates.
There were two times when the strong men were secretly sent to cooperate with the strong Celestial Dragons who were against Xiliu and wanted to eliminate Xiliu.
Although Xilu is powerful, he is still weaker than the strong Celestial Dragons.
Relying on the ability of the transparent fruit, he can get by.
If everyone joins forces, it will be much easier to deal with Xiliu, and Xiliu can be eliminated in a short time.
In this way, a top combat force can undoubtedly be liberated to expand the war advantage.
The World Government has been using such tactics since the outbreak of the war, and many famous pirates have died as a result.
The pirates will also target powerful navy or strong people from the world government.
The combat capabilities of each superpower are not individual cases; the situation of war is just like this.
Both sides regard high-end combat capabilities as a breakthrough point.
Compared to those truly top-level monsters, someone like Xilu who has reached top-level combat power can only be considered high-end combat power.
It is also because of this that the loss of high-end combat power is shocking.
The war has never stopped since it broke out.
In other words, there is no truce at all. There will be no such thing as a temporary ceasefire and then resuming the war.
After reaching the limit, go to the rear to recover, and then continue to charge into the battlefield.
People kept retreating to the rear, while others kept rushing to the front.
Especially the top combat forces of both sides, they are keeping an eye on each other, and when one side takes action, the other side will follow.
The so-called one battle to stop.
No one wants to stop, nor will they stop, everyone holds their breath.
Once you stop, the energy will be dissipated.
At that time, war-weariness will erupt.
That is to say, only in a combat environment can human potential be unleashed to the fullest.
There are always strong people sacrificing themselves, and there are always people rising up.
Fight like crazy, awaken the dual-color domineering power, and keep improving in the battle.
Countless people died during this period.
There was no time to count the losses, and we didn't even know who had died.
The battlefield may seem small, but it gathers more than one million people.
Even the protectors sent by the Celestial Dragon families are often unable to take care of the world's nobles they need to protect.
If you focus too much on other things, you will be caught in a loophole and your life will be in danger.
That is how the actions of the various superpowers went very smoothly, dealing with the candidates for the Knights of God one by one.
And without revealing too many flaws, he was deliberately targeted.
Scattered among various pirate groups, who knows that they are in the same group?
The one who really targeted the Celestial Dragons was Captain John, who died at the hands of the Celestial Dragons and attracted too much attention.
Xiliu's two attacks were caught off guard, but fortunately Lafitte came to help in time.
Shiryu naturally has a good attitude towards Lafitte and the Black Emperor Pirates.
Sometimes, when Lafitte got into trouble, Xiliu would be willing to help.
Shiryu is a member of the Flying Pirates. In Teach's view, he is someone who can be won over, and he has no intention of establishing a pirate group of his own.
If the Hiku Pirates are destroyed, Shiryu has a good chance of joining the Black Emperor Pirates.
Lafitte would naturally pay attention to potential future companions.
As the so-called confidant of Teach, Lafitte also knows many of Teach's plans and will help whenever he can.
"Black Emperor" Marshall D. Teach fought one against two, and the Black Emperor Pirates did not perform badly either.
The number of pirates in the Black Emperor Pirates is second only to the Flying Pirates, and the same is true for their overall combat power.
They also felt very proud of their captain's outstanding performance.
The "devil musician" Liszt sat behind the pirates and played a supporting role in this war.
Although he did not directly participate in the battle, his role exceeded that of countless others.
It can even be said that he is one of the core members of the pirates.
The power of music is endless.
It can heal the mind as well as the body.
The injured pirate can quickly recover by retreating to the rear and entering into Liszt's musical realm.
At the same time, mental stress can also be relieved.
It is equivalent to having an extra nurse with excellent healing abilities in the pirate camp.
I don’t know how many pirates have been healed by Liszt’s music, and they were naturally blessed by the Black Emperor Pirates.
Charlotte Lingling could have done something like this, but she didn't, simply because she didn't want to waste her soul.
This is a problem of structure.
Of course, Lingling doesn't need it.
The Black Emperor Pirates are committed to replacing the Flying Pirates, and this approach is undoubtedly very important.
Liszt could also inspire fighting spirit through music.
War is too dangerous. Apart from his fruit ability, Lister only has the combat power of a rear admiral.
Such strength is too dangerous. Although it can burst out extremely powerful power through the music fruit
He himself is still very fragile.
If he were assassinated, it would be a huge loss.
Liszt himself was armed to the teeth, inside a fortress constructed of music, and had Hallorant as his personal protector.
Be prepared for assassination by the World Government.
To a certain extent, Lister's ability makes up for the pirates' lack of medical logistics and is more efficient.
The Navy has a complete logistics system to treat injuries.
Without Lister, most pirates could only do simple disinfection and bandaging, and then rely on the body's self-healing ability to recover.
One can imagine the importance of Liszt.
The involvement of superpowers has put the world government at a disadvantage.
After completing the mission, they did not secretly leave the battlefield, but continued to participate in the war, trying to reduce their presence as much as possible until the end of the war.
If you leave rashly, people on both sides will feel that something is wrong. Just wait until the war is over and then disappear.
