Under the Light of the Pirate

Chapter 335 The Battle of the 'Divine Beast'! 'Steady as an old dog' Ace
Wano Country, Kuri.

Under the cover of Charlotte Lingling with the black blade at all costs, Zefa led the Paladin Legion under him and successfully raided the headquarters of the Beasts Pirates, Jiuli.

At the same time, as soon as he arrived at Jiuli, Zefa gave the order to the Paladin Legion to fight in an all-round way.

Although Zefa didn't understand why Ain decided to let himself take the Paladin Legion to raid Jiuli, the headquarters of the Beast Pirates, instead of sending Kuina and Dawn Blade to carry out the raid mission.

However, Zefa, who is normal-minded and has a firm belief in the Holy Light, will not hesitate to implement the orders issued by the Supreme Command during the war.

What's more, Zefa has absolute confidence in the legion of paladins that he trained by himself, which has never appeared in the sea.

After successfully 'transferring' to become a paladin, Zefa understood the power of the paladin profession.

Therefore, his subordinates led an army composed entirely of paladins, and Zefa really didn't pay attention to the Beast Pirates.

Although the current Zefa is not sure whether he, who has successfully "transferred" to become a paladin, can solve the "beast" Kaido alone, which is recognized as the "strongest creature in the sea, land and air".

But one thing, Zefa is very sure.

That is, even if I can't solve Kaido, the leader of the Beasts Pirates alone, Zefa has enough confidence to prevent Kaido from participating in the battle between the Beasts Pirates and the Paladins .

In this way, the Paladin Legion that 'lost' Zefa is still a Paladin Legion, and its fighting power is still exploding.However, after 'losing' Kaido's Hundred Beasts Pirates, how much combat power can be left?

"Keep the formation, the whole army assaults!"

After giving the order to the Paladin Legion, Zefa took the lead in stepping on the [moon steps], and rushed towards Kaido, who was locked by his own domineering arrogance.

As for the pirates of the Hundred Beasts Pirates in Jiuli, Zefa believes that the Paladin Legion can easily handle it.

In fact, the performance of the Paladin Legion did not disappoint Zefa at all.

According to Zefa's usual training and exercises, after Zefa left, all members of the Paladin Legion, under the leadership of the commanders at all levels in the Paladin Legion, used the most stable formation to advance steadily towards the interior of Jiuli with.

The defense-focused paladins are at the forefront, responsible for 'eating' the attacks of the pirates of the Beasts Pirates, providing sufficient defense for the entire paladin army.

The attack-focused paladins are located on the left and right sides. After the defensive paladins 'eat' the attacks of the pirates of the Hundred Beasts Pirates, they attacked one after another, and then attacked the pirates of the Hundred Beasts Pirates. They do the most damage.

The healing paladins are located in the center of the entire assault formation, firmly protected by the defensive and attacking paladins.

After all, shouldn't it be common sense that 'team battles guarantee healing'? !
Therefore, the assault formation of the entire Holy Knight Legion has a powerful defensive 'shield', a sharp offensive 'long sword', and a timely healing 'doctor'. With the tacit cooperation of the three, it can be said that the entire Holy Knight Legion During the assault, the Hundred Beasts Pirates were beaten back steadily, and it was difficult to form any effective resistance.

To be reasonable, if you compare your personal strength alone, the pirates of the Hundred Beasts Pirates are no worse than the Paladins of the Paladins.

Even, in a one-on-one situation, a considerable part of the pirates of the Hundred Beasts Pirates are stronger than the Paladins of the Paladin Legion.

However, this is war!

In this large-scale war between the Holy Alliance and the Hundred Beasts Pirates, no matter how strong an individual is, if he cannot reach the level of 'one man is worth ten thousand troops', then the victory of this war will be determined by Look at the combat teams of both sides.

Number of people, cooperation, strength, belief...

In this war between the Holy Alliance and the Hundred Beasts Pirates, in the comparison of all aspects related to the important conditions of group combat, the Hundred Beasts Pirates were unable to gain an advantage.

In other words, in the comparison of all aspects related to group combat, the Hundred Beasts Pirates not only do not have the advantage, but almost all aspects related to team combat. Compared with the Holy Alliance, the Hundred Beasts Pirates are more in a disadvantaged position.

No way, the pirates of the Hundred Beasts Pirates, although their individual strengths are not bad, but if they want to compare with the Paladins in terms of teamwork, tacit understanding or cooperation, it is purely overthinking.

Therefore, even though the assault formation of the Paladin Legion is a steady and steady one, but with the advantages of arms and teamwork, the speed of the Paladin Legion's assault in Jiuli is still quite fast.

Just when Zefa stopped Kaido and the Holy Knight Legion wiped out the Beasts Pirates, a sneaky figure sneaked into the world because of the Holy Alliance and the Beasts Pirates, taking advantage of the chaos of the battle between the Paladins and the Beasts Pirates. The war between the Beasts Pirates, and then the guarding of the mines under the Beasts Pirates has become a little lax.

……

In the mine under the Beast Pirates, the miners are imprisoned in the small black room.

boom!boom!
There was a strange noise, and the remaining two members of the Hundred Beasts Pirates who were in charge of guarding the miners were dealt with without a trace.

"Wow--"

"These two uncle guards, are they performing some kind of show?"

Even though he was captured as a miner by the Beast Pirates, Luffy, who was still optimistic, yelled excitedly after hearing the sound of the guard falling to the ground.

As a tendon of 'Single Cell', Luffy thought there was some entertainment program to watch when he heard the sound of the guard falling to the ground.

"Luffy!"

In Luffy's expectant eyes, a figure quickly flashed into the room where the miners were imprisoned.

The man who got rid of the guards left by the Beast Pirates without leaving a trace, and then flashed into the room where the miners were imprisoned, was wearing an orange cowboy hat with 'smile' on the brim and 'sad' badges.

The 'ASCE' on the left arm, the tattoo of a big '×' on the 'S', and the freckles on the cheeks, these obvious features all marked the identity of the infiltrator.

"Ace!!!"

After seeing the familiar face of the infiltrator, Luffy roared excitedly.

"Ah! Luffy!"

"Sorry, I'm late."

Seeing the extremely excited Luffy, Ace also smiled happily.

Fortunately, Ace still remembered his purpose of coming here.

So, temporarily suppressing his joy of reuniting with Luffy, Ace quickly used the key he found to release Luffy and other miners who were imprisoned by the Beast Pirates.

"Ace!!!"

"I miss you so much!!!"

Luffy, who just got out of trouble, didn't care about the occasion at all, just like an over-excited Erha, he directly threw himself on Ace.

"Ha, ha ha, ha ha ha..."

"I miss you too, Luffy!"

"Let's escape from the control of the Hundred Beasts Pirates first, and then talk about the old days."

Well, compared to Luffy, who has not changed his personality at all, Ace, who has experienced higher education in the Holy Alliance, has become a lot more mature.

Although the higher education received by Ace was studied seriously under the threat of Whitebeard's shining iron fist.

But in any case, regardless of whether it is active or passive, Ace, who has received higher education in the Holy Alliance, is indeed much more mature than Luffy.

"Luffy, look how many people here are willing to walk with us."

"Gather together those who are willing to walk with us, and then we all rush out together."

"I took a closer look when I was lurking in, and the guards in the mine are not so strict now."

"So, as long as we can gather more people, we can easily rush out."

After hearing what Ace said, Luffy did what Ace said without hesitation.

From Luffy's point of view, he hasn't seen Ace for so long, and now that he meets him, he can fight side by side with Ace.

This... is simply amazing!

After Luffy went to summon those miners who were also imprisoned here by the Beast Pirates like Erha, Jinbe, who was out of trouble, looked at Ace, who was now mature and stable, and faintly exuded the wind of a general, and couldn't help it. Live with emotion.

Seeing the changes in Ace, Jinbe was really moved.

[The current Ace is completely different from the Ace who jumped to challenge Papa Whitebeard back then. 】

[The mature and stable Ace really makes people feel very at ease. 】

Jinbe's emotions about Ace's changes were all in his heart, and he didn't say it out loud.

Because, after Jinbei was liberated by Ace, after greeting Ace with a smile, he went to call people to help Luffy.

However, what Jinbe doesn't know is that, despite Ace's appearance as an old dog on the surface, in fact, Ace's heart is panicking now.

The reason is very simple, because Ace's behavior of coming to rescue Luffy and others this time is Ace's own private action.

From the perspective of Luffy and Jinping, Ace's behavior is very touching and heartwarming.

However, from the side of the Holy Alliance, Ace's behavior is a typical serious wrongdoing of unorganized and undisciplined!
After all, in this war between the Holy Alliance and the Hundred Beasts Pirates, without any transfer orders, once Ace's behavior of leaving the main force without permission is discovered, the Holy Alliance will directly kill him. Ace, it's all normal.

Moreover, once Ace's "fleeing" behavior is discovered, if it is true, Ace is not the only one who was cut.

Those who helped Ace's 'fleeing', those who covered Ace's 'fleeing', those who knew about Ace's 'fleeing' but did not report it...

To put it simply, if the Holy Alliance really pursues the matter of Ace's 'running away' seriously, it will go down to an ordinary soldier of the Holy Alliance under Ace, and up to Ace's father, who is also Ace's Whitebeard, one of the 'Twelve Apostles' of the Holy Alliance, who is the immediate superior, will be held accountable by the Holy Alliance.

As for the consequences of these people being held accountable by the Holy Alliance?
At the least, they will be deprived of their positions, and they will be expelled from the Holy Alliance after they have dug enough mines for 30 years.

More seriously, the holy court convicts and executes with different punishments!

No way, although the laws within the Holy Alliance are normally relatively light, all the laws related to war and the various branches of the Holy Alliance are extremely strict to the point of abnormality.

In the Holy Alliance, almost all illegal incidents related to war and the various troops of the Holy Alliance will be handed over to the Holy Court for conviction.

And the result of the conviction of the holy court...

Emmmm......

The lightest one is a death sentence.

Therefore, the difference between the results of the holy court's conviction is the question of how to die and how many people die.

Therefore, it can be said that Ace's behavior of going to the mine of the Beast Pirates in Kuri of Wano Country to save Luffy this time, if he fails, he will destroy the entire "Whitebeard" department in the Holy Alliance. Everyone was dragged into the abyss of destruction.

As for why Ace didn't apply to the Holy Alliance first, and then go to rescue Luffy?
this……

In fact, at the beginning, Ace really submitted an application to the Holy Alliance to go to sea alone to rescue Luffy.

However, Ace's application was directly rejected by the headquarters of the Holy Alliance.

Because, when the special commissioner of the Holy Alliance General Headquarters found Ace and asked Ace whether Luffy and others would join the Holy Alliance after rescuing Luffy, Ace, the iron man, actually gave a The answer of 'Luffy and others will not join the Holy Alliance'.

In this case, the headquarters of the Holy Alliance will agree to Ace's going to sea alone unless the collective head is flooded, uh, no, it won't work, at least a hundred or eighty Tianlong people will be admitted Application to rescue Luffy.

After all, it's impossible for the Holy Alliance to contribute their efforts, and then get no benefit at all, right?

Because, once the headquarters of the Holy Alliance approves Ace's application to go to sea alone to rescue Luffy, then the intelligence department of the Holy Alliance will fully cooperate with Ace's rescue operation.

Moreover, in addition to mobilizing the intelligence department, there must also be a corresponding troop mobilization, a troop mobilization that specifically attracts the attention of the Beast Pirates, and the actions of hidden spy personnel who create chaos and reduce the pressure on Ace's rescue operation...

There are many things, the Holy Alliance can't put in a lot of effort, and then get nothing in the end, right?

If Ace can guarantee that Luffy and others will also join the Holy Alliance, then the headquarters of the Holy Alliance will not mind mobilizing part of the power of the Holy Alliance to help Ace rescue Luffy.Because, in this case, in the end, the Holy Alliance can still gain part of the high-level combat power.

But if there is nothing, then stop talking nonsense.

To give the simplest comparative example, take the messy things that Yuuki and Naruto did in the capital of flowers.

Don't look at the guise of "gathering intelligence" and "beheading operations" by Yukami and Naruto, in the final analysis, aren't Yukami and Naruto still focusing their energy on the relationship between themselves and the remaining members of the Kozuki family? !
However, the pretense played by Yugami and Ming is indeed useful, and that's enough.

No matter where Yukami and Naruto put their main energy, after all, Yukami and Naruto sent back a lot of information for the Holy Alliance before the war between the Holy Alliance and the Hundred Beasts Pirates was launched.

Moreover, after the war between the Holy Alliance and the Hundred Beasts Pirates started, Yukami and Kazunai also really killed Heitan Orochi.

In this way, with a well-known teacher and sufficient achievements, Yushang Heming can of course do whatever he wants.

And does Ace's behavior of sneaking out really belong to the kind of dancing on the tip of the knife, or is it pulling everyone in the "White Beard Department" to dance on the tip of the knife together.

That is to say, Jinping, who doesn't know anything about the laws and military regulations of the Holy Alliance, feels that Ace is now calm and mature, and his every move shows a strong general style.

As for Ace, who looks like an old dog on the surface, but actually panics in his heart...

Ah!
【I wish...】

[You can quietly return to your unit before being discovered by the patrol team of the Military Law Department and the Military Disciplinary Department. 】

【otherwise……】

【...It will really kill Dad and Marco! 】

　I wish all the friends who read this book a happy Mid-Autumn Festival~
