Chapter 40 The Great General Arrives!
Chapter 40 The Great General Arrives!
Admiral Aokiji!
Only this one person could do something like that.
"If that's the case, then the Navy Headquarters did indeed send an admiral here to provide support," west Yan said, frowning.
In that case, we need to consider the issue of our partners' retreat.
Challenging a naval admiral is certainly very exciting, but the safety of our companions must also be taken into account.
After glancing at the two people lying on the ground foaming at the mouth, west Yan hesitated for a moment but still did not immediately kill them.
If the Marine Admirals arrive before Luffy defeats Rob Lucci, these two can be used to hold the enemy back.
After summoning another clone, the shadow clone disappeared from the spot.
......
"Twelve blooming flowers!"
Nico Robin used her abilities to relentlessly attack the charging Marines, decimating the enemy's manpower.
Fortunately, due to the situation in Xiyan, there weren't as many naval forces with effective combat capabilities as one might imagine.
Most of them were just barely surviving on the sea and didn't have much energy to fight.
Those who were able to come and participate in the battle were basically all lieutenant colonels or above.
"Whoosh~"
Just then, something suddenly flew out of the water and landed precisely in front of Nico Robin.
Upon seeing the familiar object, Nico Robin instinctively caught it.
"This is... a scroll?"
Nami glanced at the thing in Nico Robin's hand in surprise. Why was there a scroll in there?
Nico Robin didn't explain, but simply placed it in her arms, then looked at Bruno and said, "Has something happened?"
"Everyone, prepare to evacuate," Bruno said calmly. "The Admiral is approaching."
"big......"
Nami's face turned pale instantly. She was only worried about the Marine Admirals, but now they've actually come?!
Those terrifying monsters were simply beyond their capabilities to deal with.
"What should we do? The Straw Hat Pirates' battle isn't over yet," Franky said.
"It all comes down to who's faster."
Sanji took a deep breath upon hearing this, lit the cigarette he had stolen from the lifeboat, and then said, "In that case, let's get on board first, we..."
Before Sanji could finish speaking, a Marine vice admiral burst out of the sea and slashed a lifeboat not far away with his sword!
"puff!"
Like slicing tofu, the lifeboat was split in two almost instantly!
"Hmph, trying to escape?!" Storoberry, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, sneered. "You'd better stay here obediently!"
The Navy has lost face so badly this time, do they still want to leave alive?
At this point, Storobelli didn't care about anything else; he just couldn't let these arrogant fools leave here alive!
After doing this, Storoberry turned and rushed towards the water, intending to kill the ninja with his two companions!
"It's over, the ship's gone..."
Nami was completely stunned. The ship they had finally managed to steal was cleaved in two with a single, casual strike... How were they supposed to escape now?
Seeing Nami's apparent loss of fighting spirit, Bruno paused for a moment before saying, "Everyone, advance through the air door!"
Let's make sure our comrades survive first. As for the ship... we'll think of another way. If all else fails, we can try using a flooded warship.
Although Nami and the others were puzzled, they trusted Xi Yan and walked towards Bruno, entering the newly opened air portal.
Seeing this, Nico Robin didn't waste any words, and without any mercy, she broke Spandam's neck and threw him into the sea.
Only after completing this task did I enter the air door.
Bruno then rushed to Usopp's side, pulled the bewildered Usopp back, and casually tossed him into the air door.
"Damn it, aren't you a CP9 member?!" a naval captain roared. "Why are you helping pirates?"
The enemy's only escape ship has already been destroyed, and now the other side is actually helping them escape?
However, Bruno merely glanced at him coldly and said disdainfully, "None of your business."
Without giving him a chance to say anything more, he turned around and disappeared into the air portal.
Navy Captain: ......
"Is this also the World Government's intention?" a lieutenant colonel asked doubtfully.
"Bullshit, how could that be? This guy must have betrayed us!"
"Just you wait, you'll be hunted down to your death!!"
The naval captain was furious, but it was just impotent rage.
Nami and the others inside the air portal all looked at Bruno with puzzled expressions.
"You've already figured out how to leave this place, right?" Zoro said. "There's not much air in this small space."
Just as Sanji was about to take a puff of his cigarette, he seemed to remember something and bent down to stub it out.
"The green-haired guy is right," Sanji said. "Without a boat, it's a pipe dream for us to leave here."
"The space problem is easy to solve; I just need to move forward," Bruno said calmly. "The problem is how to get out of here."
"So, you can't do anything about it either?" Sanji asked, dumbfounded.
"The only option is to seize warships," Bruno said.
As he spoke, he could clearly see several intact naval warships in the water through the light screen on the side.
Although it's filled with water, it can still be used as a means of transportation once it leaves the water.
"No, I'm still completely confused. Why did I suddenly end up here?" Usopp said.
"The Admiral is here," said Granny Kokoro.
"General, General!" Chimoni exclaimed.
"General..." Usopp's legs went weak, and he almost knelt on the ground.
How long has it been? Are they already facing that terrifying monster again?
Damn it, Sanji's fears were true; that terrifying monster really has arrived!
Just then, Usopp noticed a small dot suddenly appear on the surface of the sea, and it looked like it was rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed.
"What is that?"
Usopp looked into the distance with a puzzled expression, and subconsciously put on the glasses on his head that allowed him to see further, intending to see if that was the so-called Marine Admiral.
But when he saw clearly what it was, Usopp's body trembled as if struck by lightning.
"What's wrong with you?"
Zoro looked at Usopp with a puzzled expression, wondering why the guy was suddenly trembling. Could it be that he had seen a Marine Admiral?
Confused, Zoro followed his gaze into the distance but didn't find anything unusual.
In terms of eyesight alone, no one in the entire Straw Hat Pirates is as good as Usopp!
"It's...it's our partners who've come to pick us up..."
"Partner?" Franky exclaimed, dumbfounded. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Aside from the Straw Hat Pirates fighting outside, aren't all the Straw Hat Pirates here?
"Hey, Usopp, are you running a fever?" Zoro looked at Usopp with concern, wondering what had gotten into the kid all of a sudden.
I instinctively wanted to show it to Chopper, but gave up when I found that Chopper was still sleeping.
With tears streaming down his face, Usopp grabbed Zoro's collar and shouted excitedly, "Don't we still have one more comrade?!"
"It's Mary, Mary!!"
"Merry's here to pick us up!!"
At that moment, Usopp even felt as if he could hear Merry calling him, that incredibly familiar voice!
(Everyone, I've come to pick you up.)
"Merry!!!"
