Under the Light of the Pirate

Chapter 142 Sacred Ceremony

Keos Island, Cathedral of the Holy Light, apse.

The core combat power of the Holy Alliance is almost gathered here, and everyone remains quiet, as if waiting for something.

When Murphys walked into the apse of the Holy Light Cathedral, he saw such a quiet picture.

"Uh, you guys are..."

The quiet scene in front of him made Murphys feel uncomfortable for a while.

Don't everyone usually cheat each other?
Why is it so quiet today?

Is it because everyone is not familiar with Charlotte Lingling?
It shouldn't be, I've already fought desperately, and with Charlotte Lingling's 'crazy' character, I'm not unfamiliar with her.

It wasn't until Murphys sat in his seat and listened to Robin's whispered explanation that he understood what happened in the apse.

To put it simply, Zefa and Charlotte Lingling had a dispute over who would lead the team to attack the territory of the Red Hair Pirates.

Zefa felt that he did not do well in letting go of the navy before, and planned to 'make a contribution'.

As for Charlotte Lingling, because the Charlotte family has just been incorporated by the Holy Alliance, she intends to present a 'meeting gift' to the 'Holy Light'.

After listening to Robin's explanation, Murphys felt a little speechless.

What's the point of arguing?
"Uh, I know the general situation."

"There's nothing to argue about."

"This time you can lead a team to attack the territory of the red-haired pirates together."

"Because this time we will directly divide our forces into four groups, and divide them into four groups to attack the territory of the Red Hair Pirates."

As he spoke, Murphys stretched out four fingers in turn.

"The first route is led by Teacher Zefa, accompanied by Kerisanna and Kahn."

"The second route, led by Charlotte Lingling, accompanied by Katakuri, Owen and Daifuku."

"The third route, led by Mon Carlo and Monet, accompanied by Cracker and Perospero."

"The fourth route, led by Kuina, accompanied by Smoothie and Garrett."

"The rest pay attention to guarding our existing subordinate islands to prevent pirates who are not afraid of death or the kingdom to take advantage of the fire."

The faces of the core combat forces of the Holy Alliance who were named by Murphys all had smiles on their faces, while those who were not named, although they wanted to fight, they could understand Murphys' concerns.

If everyone fights together, according to the number of "desperadoes" in the new world, Keos Island and the subordinate islands of the Holy Alliance are easy to be "surprise attacked".

What's more, the red-haired pirates are not a good bird. If they can't beat the Holy Alliance head-on, and then go to the rear of the Holy Alliance to do things, it's not impossible.

In this war against the red-haired pirates, Murphys dispatched a total of five 'apostles' and nine 'battle orders' from the Holy Alliance.

You know, including Bai Xing, the special 'apostle', the Holy Alliance only has eight 'apostles' and fourteen 'battle orders' in total.

According to the establishment of the Holy Alliance and the requirements of the corresponding positions, the original 'Twelve Apostles' and '24 Battle Order' are not full.

No way, in the Holy Alliance, unless they have special abilities, both the 'Apostle' and the 'Battle Order' need the support of hard power.

So far, the core combat power of the Holy Alliance is compiled as follows.

[The Twelve Apostles of Holy Light] (Except for Robin, the others are in no particular order.)
Nicole Robin, First Apostle.

Bai Xing, special apostle, Neptune.

Kuina, Yukami Kazunaru, Zefa, Charlotte Lingling, Mon Carlo, Monet.

[Under the Holy Light, 24 battle sequences]

Ain, a commanding battle sequence, a battle sequence carefully cultivated by the Holy Alliance.

Granu, a special type of battle sequence, cannot be included in the ranks of apostles because of the shortcomings of the childlike fruit (the ability to relieve coma) and the lack of combat power itself.

Dorag, Phoenix, Corisana, Kahn, Katakuri, Smoothie, Snug, Cracker, Perospero, Owen, Daifuku, Garrett.

……

After the commanders and leaders of the four troops of the Holy Alliance attacking the red-haired pirates were assigned, Murphys simply assigned the troops for this battle.

Four troops, each with [-] members of the Holy Alliance and [-] toy soldiers.

A total of 12 members of the Holy Alliance, [-] toy soldiers, and [-] large warships.

These four expeditionary fleets to the territory of the Red Hair Pirates directly emptied [-]% of the Holy Alliance's troops and warships.

It is precisely because of this that Murphys ordered the remaining core combat power of the Holy Alliance to stay on Keos Island after arranging these four troops to fight.

As for the rest of the islands under the Holy Alliance, there are only two thousand toy soldier legions and 100 Holy Alliance combat members left on each island.

The Sacred Alliance has no shortage of toy soldier legions, but after the four conscripts are determined, there are not many remaining combat members of the Sacred Alliance.

After leaving some of the defensive buildings in charge of Kaios Island, there are only 100 combat members who can be assigned to the various islands under the Holy Alliance.

However, with Shirahoshi staying behind on Keos Island, the safety of Keos Island is still no problem.

What's more, Paradise Island, the real headquarters base of the Holy Alliance, is 'traveling' in the New World on the back of that huge turtle-shaped Neptune.

……

"Robin stayed on Keos Island and was in charge of all intelligence work for this war."

"Ain stayed on Keos Island and was responsible for mobilizing the offensive routes of the four troops in the rear."

Murphys looked at Robin and Ain, who were a little ready to move about this war, and directly said to leave the two of them on Keos Island.

What are you kidding? !

As far as Robin's current anger is concerned, if Murphys dares to let Robin play, Robin dares to slaughter all the territory of the red hair.

Therefore, in order to prevent Robin from falling into self-blame after he calmed down, Murphys did not hesitate to put Robin on Keos Island, and was responsible for all the intelligence work of this war.

As for Ain, although Murphys wanted Ain to fight with any one of the four troops.

But considering that if the red-haired pirates jump over the wall in a hurry and stare at a troop to kill, if Ain is injured, the loss outweighs the gain.

In Murphys' view, if Ain was injured by the Red Hair Pirates, he would have slaughtered everyone in the Red Hair Pirates, and he would not be able to make up for the loss of Ain to the Holy Alliance.

Emmm...

Considering Ain's safety, Murphys was thinking in his heart where he could 'fool' Ain with a reliable bodyguard to come back.

"If you have no other suggestions, let's arrange it like this."

"Robin, contact Morgans and make this war publicity louder."

"Also, inform the intelligence officer to suppress the reputation of the red-haired pirates from various channels."

After Morpheus arranged the candidates for the four troops to go to war, he asked Robin to do a good job in intelligence and public opinion.

"That's about it. Everyone, go back and be ready to fight at any time."

"By the way, when Yuu comes back, tell me."

After finishing speaking, Murphys left the apse of the Holy Light Cathedral and went to the restaurant on Keos Island to find food.

No way, in order to successfully complete the 'sacred ceremony', he ate vegetarian food for half a year on Paradise Island, and Murphys said that he almost forgot what meat tastes like.

So, after completing the 'sacred ceremony', Murphys returned to Keos Island, either eating meat every day, or on his way to eat meat.

The consequence of this situation is that the sales of meat food in Keos Island have been booming recently.

Murphys did it successfully, driving the meat consumption of an island with the amount of food for one person.

The amount of rice (meat) is...so terrifying?
……

Following Murphys' flashback, everyone looked at the core combat power of the Holy Alliance in the apse of the Holy Light Cathedral, and then they all got up and left the Holy Light Cathedral.

One of the twelve small palaces outside the Holy Light Cathedral, the exclusive palace of Charlotte Lingling, the 'apostle'.

Almost everyone in the Charlotte family gathered here.

"Brother Katakuri, is it really good for us to be so dispersed in this battle?"

It was Smoothie who was speaking. As one of the former "Three Generals of Desserts", after undergoing a "sacred ceremony", Smoothie gained a position in the "Battle Order" in the Holy Alliance by relying on his strength.

"no problem."

"If we don't disperse, how can we attract the group of red-haired pirates?"

Katakuri habitually raised the scarf before answering Smoothie's question.

After undergoing the 'sacred ceremony', Katakuri's 'little tiger tooth' was wiped out by Murphys.

Although Katakuri's mouth has returned to normal, he can completely tear off the scarf and rely on his face to eat.

But after decades of habit, Katakuri is still used to wearing a scarf.

But without the "heart disease" of "little tiger teeth", Katakuri's mental state is much better than before.

"The route of dispatching troops this time seems to have no connection between the four troops."

"But in fact, apart from the one led by Lord Kuina, among the four troops, no matter which one of the remaining three troops encounters the red-haired pirates, they can delay the red-haired pirates. "

"As long as it can be delayed for more than a day, at least two of the other three troops will encircle them."

"Although Master Kuina's troops cannot hold back the red-haired pirates, Master Kuina's troops are fast enough."

"Once you encounter the red-haired pirates, you can bring the red-haired pirates into the encirclement of the other three troops."

"Even if the red-haired pirates don't pursue, Master Guina's troops can hold the position of the red-haired pirates, and then let the remaining three troops have enough time to form an encirclement of the red-haired pirates."

"In short, although we are divided into four groups this time, we have only one purpose, which is to catch the red-haired pirates and kill them directly."

With Katakuri's IQ, after seeing the offensive routes of the four troops of the Holy Alliance, combined with the characteristics of the four troops of the Holy Alliance, he can easily analyze the real goal of the Holy Alliance's dispatch of troops.

The territory of the red-haired pirates is just incidental.

The real purpose of the Holy Alliance is to catch the red-haired pirates, and then destroy the entire red-haired pirates at once.

As for whether the red-haired pirates will see through the plan of the Holy Alliance and refuse to accept the move, Katakuri doesn't care at all.

First, if you don't understand the characteristics of the four troops of the Holy Alliance, you can't see the intention of the Holy Alliance simply from the offensive routes of the four troops of the Holy Alliance.

Second, even if the red-haired pirates saw the intention of the Holy Alliance, they had to accept the move.

The reason is simple, with the pre-war public opinion in charge of Robin and Morgans' "stirring the flames", if the red-haired pirates don't fight, then the red-haired pirates will lose face.
