Off the coast of Elbaf, the morning light shone on the neatly prepared fleet. Huge warships were lined up in rows, each one like a silent behemoth, waiting to rush into the battlefield.

In the meeting room in the cabin, Jin An stood in front of a huge map, his fingertips gently sliding over the routes marked with Marijoa and Elbaf, his eyes revealing calm thinking and unquestionable determination.

"It is indeed risky to divide our forces into two routes, but if we don't do this, we won't be able to contain the World Government's main fleet."

Jin An's voice was low, but it carried a power that made people feel extremely reassured.

He glanced at everyone, especially at Whitebeard and Loki.

"The defense of Elbaf is the foundation of our operations. We must have those who remain to hold this place."

Upon hearing this, Whitebeard laughed heartily:

"Gulalala, don't worry, kid. We can take over the frontline of Elbaf without any problems."

He slapped his strong palms on the table, as if he had set up an insurmountable line of defense for this land.

Loki nodded. Although he was still a little nervous, he felt more proud and responsible as a giant prince.

"We the Giants have never been afraid of any enemy. Elbaf will not fall!"

Jin An nodded slightly, turned around and cast his gaze towards the vast sea map, his tone becoming a little colder:

"And I will lead men to meet their fleets - the sea will be their graveyard."

Tian Yueshi stood aside, frowning slightly:

“However, such an action is extremely risky.

The World Government’s main fleet is not only huge in number, but also includes Seraphim and the new Five Elders.

You must ensure that you do not get entangled, otherwise the two fronts will lose contact and our plan will be in trouble."

“There are lots of ways to go about all this.”

Jin An's lips curled up slightly, showing confidence in his calmness.

“As long as one side is in crisis, I can appear on the battlefield in an instant.

The world government’s military will not have this kind of flexibility.”

Tian Yue was silent for a moment, with some complicated emotions in his eyes:

"I believe you."

Others present also nodded.

Whitebeard rubbed his beard, and his tone became more playful:

"Boy, you are becoming more and more proficient in using those strategies. It seems that we can gain a better chance of winning on the battlefield this time."

Jin An smiled and turned to look at the sunlight in the sky:

"This ocean is our battle, and our fight will become the stuff of legend."

At this moment, the sunlight broke through the darkness and shone directly on the bounty order placed on the table.

Jin An picked up one at random, unfolded it, raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a meaningful smile - it contained the latest bounty order.

His bounty has soared to 55 billion berries, with big red letters reading “The World’s Most Evil Man.”

"55 billion, that's a really good number."

He put the newspaper on the table, raised his eyelids and looked at everyone.

"We have completely torn our relationship with the World Government, and we will not hold back in the next battle."

On the table, in addition to Jin'an's bounty, there were also bounties from Whitebeard, Loki, Amatsuki Toki and other companions, each of which was enough to shock the whole world.

Tian Yue took a quick glance and couldn't help but hum:

"What a big deal! The World Government is determined to get rid of us."

Jin An retracted his gaze and tapped the table lightly with his fingers:

“Then let them try.

But don’t wait until they reach Elbaf—we will cut off their arms in the sea.”

......

a few days later.

The sea is vast and rough.

The atmosphere on the ship's deck suddenly became tense. Everyone put down what they were doing and quickly entered a state of combat readiness.

Jin An stood at the highest point of the ship, the sea breeze lifted his cloak, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle.

He looked into the distance in the direction indicated by the lookout, and saw a black dot vaguely emerging at the end of the horizon. The black dot appeared and disappeared among the waves, and as the distance gradually got closer, the outline of the warship was revealed.

"coming."

He whispered, his voice calm but containing a sense of oppression that could not be ignored.

"Attention everyone!"

Jin An turned to face the crew behind him, and his voice spread throughout the ship like a loud bell.

"This is our first trial! If we defeat them, we can open the path to victory!"

The crew responded in unison, their voices filled with determination and fighting spirit:

"Yes!"

Loki leaned against the railing on one side, his eyes scanning the figures on other ships not far away.

"Aren't these guys a little too excited?"

He raised his eyebrows and spoke in a relaxed tone, but had already taken the giant axe in his hand.

“It’s better to be excited than to be afraid.”

Whitebeard carried a long sword and grinned.

"Gulala! Let them warm up so they won't be lenient later!"

In the captain's meeting room, the core members of the battle command quickly gathered.

Tian Yueshi held a map, frowning slightly.

“Based on the number, this should only be the vanguard force, but we cannot take it lightly.

These warships may contain the secret weapons of the new Five Elders."

"It doesn't matter."

Jin An strode into the meeting room and glanced at everyone.

"Whatever they brought, there's no chance of giving it back."

His words were so powerful that they shocked people's hearts like a hammer falling to the ground.

Tian Yueshi showed a complicated smile.

"Since you are so confident, you will take the lead from now on."

"nature."

Jin An nodded without hesitation, the fighting spirit in his eyes becoming more and more intense.

The atmosphere on the deck outside had reached a boiling point. The sea breeze carried the roars of the soldiers, and their weapons reflected the dazzling sunlight.

Whitebeard stood up from the center of the deck, raised his long sword and pointed it at the distant warship.

"This is the rule at sea - either be defeated or walk away alive from the battlefield! Brothers, this sea belongs to us!"

He was responded with a deafening shout, and everyone was ready for the first battle.

At the same time, the outlines of the warships became clearer and clearer, and the muzzles of their guns glowed coldly in the sunlight.

"All warships are ready to meet the enemy!"

At Jin'an's command, the gun barrels of each warship adjusted their directions and aimed at the warships that were about to enter the range.

There was an even more nervous voice coming from the lookout.

"The number of enemy warships has exceeded fifty and is still increasing!"

Tian Yueshi came to Jin An's side and said in a low voice,

"The enemy arrived earlier than expected, and their numbers are greater than the intelligence indicated. Should we change our plan?"

"No need."

Jin An remained calm as ever. He placed his hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist, tilted his head slightly to look at her, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“No matter how many come, the result is the same.

Tell everyone, in this battle, we win by speed!"

His sword slowly unsheathed, and a cold light shone on everyone's faces, as if igniting the fire hidden in their hearts.

The crews burst into even louder war roars, and all the ships quickly adjusted their formations, forming an aggressive formation, heading straight for the mighty fleet of warships.

The sea breeze grew stronger, as if sounding the clarion call for the upcoming bloody battle.

At this moment, the entire sea held its breath, waiting for the flames of war to ignite.
