Captain Rocks of the Pirates
Chapter 169 The Big Surprise
"Uncle, how's it going over there?" Ace turned to look at Lin Feng and asked Feibao.
Lin Feng's tone was indifferent: "Our people haven't arrived yet, don't worry."
Then, Lin Feng looked up at Bai Xing sitting behind him, with a smile on his face. It was so warm, and his attitude when talking to Ace before was completely different.
"Baixing, are you afraid?"
Bai Xing looked down at Lin Feng. To be honest, she still hadn't reacted. The journey was too fast and too dizzying.
First, Alabasta, then back to Fishman Island, and then headed towards the World Expo.
"As long as Brother Lin Feng is here, I won't be afraid." Bai Xing also gave Lin Feng an extremely gentle smile: "Brother Lin Feng will not harm me."
Lin Feng looked up at Bai Xing's sensible appearance, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart: "Bai Xing, can I borrow your ability again?"
For a moment, Ace and Bruno both looked at Lin Feng.
Regarding Bai Xing's ability, the two of them are very clear about it. It is no exaggeration to say that such a powerful ability can summon the Neptune class to destroy the world.
"Boss, what do you want to do?" Bruno on the side was full of curiosity and stared at Lin Feng in surprise.
At the same time, Bai Xing also lowered his head and looked at Lin Feng strangely.
"Bai Xing, how many Neptunes can you summon along the way?" Lin Feng looked into Bai Xing's eyes and asked.
Hearing this, Bai Xing thought for a moment, how many Neptunes?I'm afraid even Bai Xing himself doesn't know this: "It depends on how many Neptunes hear my voice."
Lin Feng nodded slightly: "Then it's all thanks to you."
Then, Shirahoshi began to summon the Neptunes, and an extremely strong affinity radiated from Shirahoshi.
Under the surprised gaze of the crowd.
"I'll go, it's so big!" Bruno looked up and looked at the Neptune appearing behind him, an extremely huge crocodile. The crocodile's surface also had extremely hard scales, like dragon scales.
"Is this a sea monkey?" A huge monkey appeared on the sea surface, with yellow skin and thick hair.
As expected of a monkey! !
"Are there any snakes in the sea?" Suddenly, an extremely huge green snake rushed out of the water, and its slender snake body appeared in front of everyone, and everyone was inevitably amazed!
In just a few seconds, nearly dozens of Neptune-like creatures had appeared. This lineup was astonishing!
It can even be invincible, no!Here are all the New World's Neptunes, enough to be invincible in the entire Grand Line!
This is a person's ability, a God-given ability. Bai Xing does not even need to train or work hard at all, God has given such a heaven-defying ability.
"Brother Lin Feng, do you want to continue?" Feibao was surrounded by dozens of sea kings, and he looked quite dwarfed. Of course, these sea kings didn't have any ferocious expressions, all of them had kind expressions, looking at the sitting ones The white star on Feibao is like his friend.
"What's wrong? Are you a little tired?" Lin Feng didn't understand. Does it require stamina to spread affinity?
Bai Xing shook his head: "No, it's just that having so many friends should be enough, right?"
friend?Lin Feng, Ace and Bruno looked at Bai Xing in surprise, but they soon became relieved. This is probably the reason why Bai Xing has this ability.
Shirahoshi truly treats them as friends, rather than taking advantage of them.
"We need many, many friends like this." Lin Feng's voice also became gentle. Staying with Bai Xing will make people feel an inexplicable peace of mind!
"Okay, Brother Lin Feng." Bai Xing respected Lin Feng very much in his heart, and he naturally obeyed Lin Feng's arrangements.
Immediately afterwards, the Neptunes came one after another, which also showed Shirahoshi's ability in another aspect, and did not consume any physical strength.
Looking at the Neptunes around him, Lin Feng couldn't help but murmured softly: "The surprise I have brought to you is quite big!"
...
Expo!
The World Expo at this time can be described as very chaotic!
All the artillery shells on the warships had been exhausted. The warships approached the ice one after another. The soldiers jumped from the warships and joined the battle one after another.
With a click, a huge crack opened in the ice sculpture on Jack's body, and then the crack spread rapidly. After that, the entire ice sculpture became shattered!
"Ah!" Jack roared directly into the sky, and then looked up at Qing Pheasant. His anger turned into dullness when he just saw Qing Pheasant!
Not only Jack stayed where he was, but also Cracker and more than [-] people behind him, all looked at this scene with blank eyes.
Behind the blue pheasant!
Vice Admiral Tiantuan walked quickly towards this side, with a ferocious appearance and a strong figure. Each of them held a weapon in his hand.
What is certain is that no one in this group of people is a good person!
But this is not the most astonishing thing. The most astonishing thing is yet to come. Tens of thousands of marines stepped on the ice step by step with neat steps and no injuries.
You know, there are tens of thousands of people here. It looks like a dark place, and an extremely powerful deterrent force is coming.
Although they are all extremely powerful and have seen the world, they have never seen such a spectacular one.
Under everyone's gaze, Lieutenant General Tian Tuan and tens of thousands of soldiers had already arrived behind Qing Pheasant, with calm expressions and fierce stares at Jack and the others.
The pressure came to Jack's side instantly.
On the island, the pressure on the Supernova Alliance suddenly decreased. Without the attack of artillery shells, they could be said to be safe.
But this safety means that there is no fear of life for the time being, but the threat still exists.
Bonnie, Drake, Apu, Hawkins and others are full of difficulties.
Listening to the cheers behind him, there was no smile on his face.
"What should we do now?" Bonnie held the chicken drumstick in her hand and threw it to the barren ground. At this time, even Bonnie had lost interest in food.
"What should we do? We are rescued, run!" The four pirates in Bonnie shouted excitedly, eager to escape from the island.
But the figures of Bonnie and the four others did not move at all.
"Are there any other choices?" Apu asked back. Despite the funny look on Apu's face, Apu knew very well in his heart.
Later, Hawkins once again took out a divination card: "The divination said that we have a narrow escape from death today."
"Okay! Stop talking nonsense and hurry up!" Drake's temper was the hottest. He directly entered the animal fruit form and ran towards the battle on the ice of the port.
Seeing the actions of the four Bonnies, the group of escaping pirates were also stunned. What were they doing?Do you want to participate in the battle there?
Don't they know how horrific the fighting there is?Hundreds of times more terrifying than the cannonballs in the sky!
"Come back quickly and run!" Among them, there were some pirates who shouted at the four of them. After all, they were in an alliance!
Unexpectedly, Bonnie turned back to the group of pirates and shouted: "Run now, there is no chance of survival!"
No chance?
The pirates looked at Bonnie and others blankly.
Bonnie's voice continued: "No need to have any illusions anymore, all the pirate ships on the other side must have been destroyed."
"How is that possible!" Almost at the same time, everyone looked at each other!
If that's really the case, what else can be done?
Among them, a pirate yelled: "Then let's wait here, wait for the navy to decide the winner of the battle with them, and take advantage of others' danger!"
Upon hearing this, Bonnie turned over the white smoke, turned around and walked directly to the port. Her faint voice reached everyone's ears: "Even if they have a little bit of strength left, we can't get out alive."
It's exactly what Bonnie said.
If the Navy wins, will they let them go?Obviously not, no matter whether they help the pirates or not, there will be no chance of survival.
But what if the pirate side wins?
If they didn't take action and just watched the show from the side, it was obvious that the Kaido Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates were both vicious people, so there was no way they could be let go.
But what if they had some effect?
No matter what, Kaido Pirates and Big Mom will give them a chance of survival, right?
This is the opportunity! !
Obviously, being able to become a supernova requires not only strong strength, but also some brains.
When Bonnie finished her words, almost all the pirates looked at each other, their faces even more ashen, it was considered a death sentence.
But at least you have to make a bet, right?
Thousands of pirates were holding weapons in their hands, and there was no trace of fear on their faces. It was originally a dead end, but if they were more afraid, they wouldn't be afraid anymore.
Live to the death!
Soon, the Supernova Alliance, represented by Bonnie, Hawkins, Apu and Drake, stood behind Jack, Clark and others.
Jack, Crackle, Smoothie and others just looked back at the Supernova Alliance without saying anything.
They didn't need to ask for any reason or reason. The situation was so anxious. If they said any more nonsense, they would look down on Yi Qingji, the tens of thousands of naval soldiers in the Vice Admiral's Marine Corps.
The Supernova Alliance didn't say anything, but held their weapons tightly.
. . .
At this moment, a huge explosion spread throughout the island.
Deafening.
Look up at the same time! !
The magma handwriting, which was enough to melt everything, collided violently with the katana in Jhin's hand again.
Jhin held the knife in both hands, slashing down heavily from top to bottom. His head was covered with white hair, and the two huge black wings behind his back were flapping crazily.
"I once said that I will never lose again!!" Jin roared loudly, as if this could increase his strength a little.
Just listen to Akainu's faint voice: "Whether you lose or not doesn't just depend on your promise!"
Subsequently, Akainu's left side was completely transformed into lava. While being transformed into lava, it was covered with armed Haki, and he punched out! !
"what!!"
Under this punch, the katana in Jhin's hand actually cracked.
Jhin's pupils dilated infinitely, and a look of shock appeared on his face. With just one breath, the katana in Jhin's hand completely split into two halves!
Without the resistance of the katana, Akainu swung his fist hard towards Jhin!
"Jhin!!" The mammoth shook its huge elephant head and looked at this scene in shock. Its huge eyes became extremely bloodshot, and all the anger that Jack felt at this moment could be seen from it!
Pieces of black armor fragments fell from the air and fell into the sea without making any waves.
On Jhin's chest, the black armor shattered into pieces, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he retreated violently in the air.
It was also thanks to the powerful fleshiness given by the animal fruit and the tribe, otherwise, Jhin's ending would have been very miserable.
He was directly penetrated by Akainu's fiery fists.
A mouthful of blood spurted out from Jin's mouth. After Kankan stabilized his body, his breath had become extremely weak, and the black wings behind his back flapped slowly.
A shocking wound appeared on his chest, and his skin was burned by Akainu's lava, completely losing his previous majestic appearance.
Flapping his wings, Jhin slowly came to the mammoth's side.
Jack quickly exited the mammoth form and supported Jhin. He had great respect for Jhin, Kaido, Quinn, and Jack.
He is truly regarded as his companion, boss! !
"Poof!" Under everyone's gaze, Jhin spat out a mouthful of blood again, and his breath became even weaker. In fact, the one who suffered the most damage from Akainu's attack just now was inside Jhin's body!
All the internal organs were burned.
Seeing Jhin's appearance, Jack turned around and stared at Aoki, the Vice Admiral and the tens of thousands of marines. His angry expression was uncontrollable.
At the same time, Akainu also came to Aokiji's side and faced Jack's gaze head on.
"It's so weak. Is this the big sign of the Beasts Pirates? It's vulnerable!" A mocking voice came from Akainu's mouth.
Jack couldn't hold it back immediately and looked furious.
"Don't be impulsive, Jack!" Jhin decisively stopped Jack. Akainu is such a person. Those with high EQ are said to be good at taking advantage of other people's weaknesses, while those with low EQ are said to have no martial ethics!
. . .
"Isn't this too cruel?" Under the sea, Enelu shouted with excitement on his face.
This time, it was Enelu who was observing the situation above!
"What happened?" Seeing Eniro's appearance, Crocodile, Marco and others couldn't help but ask.
"It's so awesome, that red dog marshal actually defeated that Pteranodon!!"
Listening to Enel's description, Crocodile on the side couldn't help but regret a little. Why did he give up the only scene to Enel, such an unreliable person? !
My intestines are so wet!
Suddenly, the white-bearded man sitting cross-legged on the deck froze his eyes slightly and let out bursts of hearty laughter: "They are finally here."
. . .
"They are finally here."
On the island, Barrett looked up into the sky. As for Akainu defeating Jhin, Barrett was not surprised at all.
If the majestic marshal of the navy is not a big opponent, then this navy must be lonely.
"Who is coming?" Festa looked up and looked into the distance, but there was no one there.
"Kaido, bigmom!" Barrett's paralyzed face turned a little excited!
Lin Feng's tone was indifferent: "Our people haven't arrived yet, don't worry."
Then, Lin Feng looked up at Bai Xing sitting behind him, with a smile on his face. It was so warm, and his attitude when talking to Ace before was completely different.
"Baixing, are you afraid?"

Lin Feng nodded slightly: "Then it's all thanks to you."
Then, Shirahoshi began to summon the Neptunes, and an extremely strong affinity radiated from Shirahoshi.
Under the surprised gaze of the crowd.
"I'll go, it's so big!" Bruno looked up and looked at the Neptune appearing behind him, an extremely huge crocodile. The crocodile's surface also had extremely hard scales, like dragon scales.
