One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

Grand Line, Chambord Islands.

In the deep sea, nearly a hundred huge pirate ships were like migrating fish schools, one after another rushing towards the sea in an orderly manner.

The iron-covered ram of the ship's bow looked like a sharp spear breaking through the sea. The ship's hull, wrapped in Alqiman resin, was like a huge whale leaping from the bottom of the sea, crashing heavily onto the sea. .

As each ship floats slowly on the sea, the dawn sunlight shines on the surface of the colorful film, reflecting the charming colors.

Between the top of the mast and the snow-white sail, there are various pirate flags hanging. The same thing is that the top pirate flag has the iconic crescent beard.

Nearly a hundred pirate ships adjusted their positions in the sun and regrouped into a huge pirate fleet. Nearly a hundred Whitebeard Pirates flags buzzed in the refreshing and slightly salty sea breeze, marching forward toward the navy. Headquarters moves forward.

Moby Dick.

Sitting alone on the bow of the ship, enjoying the cool sea breeze, I carefully compared the advanced combat capabilities of the enemy and ours, as well as the possible foreign aid from the other side, and called out the system panel from the bottom of my heart.

"Dark blue plus some!"

After four months of accumulation, An's bond points increased from 34 to 68.

Looking at the blue virtual panel floating in front of him that only he could see, An thought about whether to improve his physical fitness or his will.

After careful consideration, he thought that he might need to maintain the Phoenix user posture for a long time in this war, and finally decided to improve his physical fitness.

"Ding! It takes 50 bond points to upgrade S-level physique. Do you want to upgrade it?"

"promote!"

With the pressing of the OK button, An's physique became the first of the four attributes to break through to SS. Different from the previous breakthroughs, this time crossing classes gave An a completely different feeling.

If the power brought by the attribute breakthrough from the F to S stage is compared to a small stream, then the power brought by the breakthrough from S to SS is like a surging river. There is an incomparable gap between the two.

An allowed this huge force to wash over his body, with warm currents flowing to his limbs and bones, to the eight extraordinary meridians, and to every organ.

Under this powerful force, every blood vessel, every inch of meridians, and every internal organ has been strengthened like never before.

At this moment, An felt that the power in his body was like a rising sun, inexhaustible.

The dawn fades and the sun rises.

Eight in the morning.

There are still four hours left before the execution.

Ace himself was imprisoned in the temporary prison of Marinefando.

The crescent-shaped harbor of the Navy Headquarters and the first half of the Execution Square were surrounded by 60 warships, like an airtight iron barrel.

Although the number of these 60 warships is not large, each one is an expensive and well-equipped specially-made warship of the Demon Slayer Order level.

The cost of any one of them will not be less than 15 billion Baileys. Coupled with the various elite weapons on the ship, it will cost at least 20 billion Baileys to build such a warship.

Not counting technology, in terms of price alone, only the World Government with a rich foundation in this ocean can afford such a high fee.

Of course, these are just the money spent on construction. The daily repair and maintenance of these warships is an astronomical sum.

Behind the 60 warships surrounding the island, there are four lines of defense.

The first line of defense is the towering walls outside Marinefando. On these weather-beaten walls, a powerful heavy artillery is mounted every few steps.

The black muzzle exudes a frightening aura, pointing to the sea in the distance, and can carry out a saturated and devastating attack on the enemies within the field of vision at any time.

The second line of defense is located on both sides behind the city wall. It consists of two general candidates, Momo Usagi Gion and Cha Dome Kake, as well as 40 Navy Headquarters elite lieutenant generals, more than ordinary lieutenant generals, and countless A defensive phalanx composed of elite navies.

Once the Whitebeard Pirates break through the outer blockade of warships and withstand the saturated artillery fire coverage, they will be dealt a heavy blow by these elite navies who maintain order in the sea.

The third line of defense was located at the bottom of the execution platform, in front of the eight giant lieutenants, and a powerful lineup composed of six Shichibukai who had not yet arrived.

Placing them in this position rather than in the front is entirely out of the Navy's confidence in its own strength.

Justice does not need these scum of the sea to uphold justice.

From another perspective, this is also the Warring States Period's wariness against them.

If the Shichibukai are placed at the front, once these powerful pirates rebel, the navy's top brass at the rear will not have time to stop them from destroying the front line of defense.

The fourth line of defense is cruder than the previous lines of defense, and does not even have the necessary defensive measures.

Under the high execution platform, there are three golden chairs made of gold, and the purple leather cushions indicate their nobility.

This line of defense is none other than the navy's highest combat power, the admiral's defense line that symbolizes the navy's absolute force.

Further back, there is the execution platform hanging alone in the sky, with the "Wall of Justice" engraved with two powerful traditional Chinese characters.

On top of the crescent-shaped harbor, the elite navy, who had hurriedly eaten a few mouthfuls of sumptuous breakfast, were already waiting in the square.

Everyone held a polished weapon in their hands, a firearm that had been oiled and maintained, and looked firmly ahead.

They knew why today's breakfast was so rich, because people always have to eat a good meal before they die, so that they will not be looked down upon by others.

They also know not to eat too much, because eating too much will affect their reaction speed and lose their lives.

One hundred thousand navy soldiers stood neatly on the Crescent Bay, wearing one hundred thousand snow-white military caps and one hundred thousand snow-white cloaks with the word justice written on them.

One hundred thousand living lives stand here for their beliefs.

In the wide square, on the wall of the bay, naval soldiers who are good at using artillery have begun to calibrate the artillery according to the plan they made before.

After the artillery was calibrated, a large amount of ammunition was moved onto the city wall, and the sound of filling cannonballs sounded. The tense atmosphere before the war filled the entire square.

They knew very well that any one of them might die here today.

But it is also clear that their families and the many concerns behind them are watching their every move.

forward! It's for heroes!

Back off! Always a coward!
