Chapter 223: Exchange of Two Naval Branches

The admiral was captured!

The sad news spread throughout the navy.

The morale of the soldiers, who had already been low due to the attacks by the Scarlet Legion, was so low that after hearing the news, some of them actually turned around and fled.

"I still have family, I can't die!"

"Big fire-breathing!"

Before the deserter could take two steps, Akainu, with a gloomy face, punched him through the chest.

"Anyone who dares to break the morale of the army on the battlefield will die!"

Akainu, who is like an iron-blooded general, has always had zero tolerance for deserters.

The rest of the marines who were thinking of escaping were frightened by Akainu's ruthless methods, and all gritted their teeth and continued to join the battlefield.

The fighting continued.

The sound of flintlock bullets bursting from rifle barrels, the clash of knife handles, and the wailing of the navy.

When Whitebeard activates his innate skill, as long as the scarlet energy in the core of his chest is not exhausted, the Whitebeard Pirates will suffer zero casualties.

"monster!"

"Someone can come and save me!"

After a while, even with the iron rule that deserters must die, the navy still suffered a crushing defeat.

They are also considered a trained elite navy and have hunted down countless pirates.

However, the pirate who could not be killed recovered instantly after his hands and feet were cut off, and he was glowing red.

Such a pirate group is like devils crawling out of hell!
"You're still too naive, little Sakaski!"

Whitebeard exerted force with both arms, sweeping the broad blade across.
Bringing up gusts of wind, a white ball cover attached to the blade, shattering the space it passed through.

"Pluto!"

Akainu waved his arms.

The magma dripped down, melting the ice surface, and the entire magma arm pounced like a hound, attacking Whitebeard's face.

"Violent pheasant mouth!"

Aokiji attacked at the same time.

A flying bird that looked like an exquisite ice sculpture created circles of icy ripples in the air and rushed towards Whitebeard.

Boom.

The collision between the blade and the ice and magma created a huge shock wave.

The ice around was shattered.

The earth shook and some pirates and marines who were closer to the center were blown away by the shock wave in an instant.

Black smoke covered the center of the battlefield.

After a while, the smoke dissipated.
Whitebeard held Kusugano-kiri tightly, standing still.
A red glow was formed, which neutralized most of the attacks of the two admirals, and was borne by all the pirates.

the other side,
Aokiji dragged Akainu, who was unable to move, to a safe area.

"Are you okay, Sakaski?"

"Still alive..."

Akainu said with difficulty,

The left half of his body was severely injured, his skin was completely shattered, exposing his muscles and bones, and he looked like a ghost.

The most serious injury was the left leg, which had been completely cut off. He could only temporarily use magma as a prosthetic limb, which continued to emit hot black smoke.

"If you want to defeat Whitebeard, you must first kill all the Whitebeard Pirates."

"But if we don't kill Whitebeard, those pirates can keep coming back to life. This is a really weird ability that is extremely difficult to deal with!"

Aokiji shook his head helplessly.

The Crimson Troll's strange talent is too tricky to find its weak point.

I'm afraid that only Garp and Smoker, who also have the ability of the reincarnation game, can fight with their gaming ability.

"armistice!"

It is impossible to continue fighting in this state. Not to mention rescuing Kizaru, Akainu will die if they continue fighting.

"Whitebeard in his peak state is truly terrifying!"

"Aokiji, don't say things that encourage the pirates to be arrogant. It has nothing to do with Whitebeard. It's just that the exchange in the reincarnation game is too strong. Otherwise..."

Sakaski has not yet adjusted to the prosthesis and walks with a limp.

Hearing Aokiji's words, his face turned extremely ugly, and he stubbornly retorted, "Long live Dad!"

The Whitebeard Pirates cheered.

The marines retreated in disgrace and returned to the marine base. Aokiji and Sakaski needed to recuperate and recover their strength.

After Lieutenant General Tsuru reported the situation to Marshal Sengoku, he sighed.

Finally, he boarded the Moby Dick in a gesture of peaceful negotiation.

"Newgate, can you return Borsalino?"

"You went to the pirate ship alone. Aren't you afraid of being captured like Kizaru-chan, Crane?"

Whitebeard looked at the newcomer with cold eyes.

The momentum suddenly burst out, and the entire Moby Dick shook.

"If that's the case, you won't be the Four Emperors Whitebeard who can compete with Roger for the Great Treasure. I believe you can't do such a thing."

Vice Admiral He looked calm, unperturbed by the aura.

Her strength is very strong in the entire Marine Headquarters, but there is still a gap between her and Whitebeard. She dared to board the Moby Dick without any precautions, which shows that she knows Whitebeard's character.

“Wu la la la…”

Whitebeard restrained his momentum and stopped probing.

He is an old acquaintance of Crane and Garp, so he can just speak his mind. He said, "50 billion ransom can take Kizaru away."

"impossible!"

Vice Admiral Tsuru flatly refused, saying, "Even if we empty the Navy Headquarters, we can't come up with 50 billion in assets."

"Just sell the naval base and the island."

"impossible!"

Vice Admiral Tsuru shook his head and said coldly: "Fifty billion in assets are enough to train a new admiral in the reincarnation game. It's not fair!"

At least five naval branches were sold with 50 billion in assets. Each branch was a military base built with decades of asset accumulation. How could they be sold just like that?

Marco chimed in, "It's not just a fair thing now. Kizaru is the face of the Marine Headquarters..."

The prestige of the navy depends on the support of the admirals of the headquarters.

If Kizaru stayed on the Moby Dick all the time, the Marine Headquarters would be completely humiliated.

"Ten billion in assets is the limit of the Navy Headquarters!"

"35 billion in assets, it can't be any lower!"

"..."

finally,
The Navy Headquarters spent 20 billion in assets to get back the captured Borsalino and lost a naval base.

The two sides tacitly agreed not to continue fighting.
Although the navy has the advantage in military strength, it not only has to guard against the Four Emperors of Pirates, but also has to fight against the leader of the Revolutionary Army, so it does not have an overall advantage.

In the center of the island of death,

A magnificent palace rose from the ground, and black clouds hovered in the sky like a dragon.

crunch...

The palace door that was covered by thick black fog suddenly opened, and gusts of deathly aura from the underworld spread out.

In an instant, the entire Death Island was engulfed in thick black fog.

Ghosts more powerful than before poured out of the palace like a tide, until finally, a tall and thin figure stood at the entrance of the palace.

A pair of cold eyes scanned the players who landed on the island, as if they were looking at dead bodies.

"Welcome to the Soul-Catching Palace!"

After breaking free from the restraints, the Soul Catcher still had several chains in his body, but his strength was greatly improved compared to the beginning.

Even the strongest revolutionary army leader among the players can be easily killed by him.

Light is the aura of fear that emanates,

It is enough to shock those ignorant humans.

suddenly,

The Soul Catcher felt something was wrong, and there was a hint of doubt in his cold eyes.

Those humans who were as weak as ants did not retreat at all under the aura of fear that he released.

On the contrary,

A bit fanatical and greedy, as if treating oneself as a prey to be hunted?
what happened?
