Chapter 128 The Battle That Is About to Happen
On a shattered battlefield, an event occurred that would shock the entire sea.
Cheng Xiaoyu remained in spirit form, looking at Shanks, who was already panting heavily and kneeling on one knee holding Griffin, and said calmly, "Shanks, you will die today."
"Besides, all your crew members are dead, and now only the officers are putting up a difficult resistance."
Unexpectedly, in just two days, the great battle between Cheng Xiaoyu and the Red-Haired Pirates is almost over.
Aside from Cheng Xiaoyu being quite tired, his Shadow Legion actually grew by another 2000 men.
Fortunately, Cheng Xiaoyu could buy mana-restoring potions, which gave him an absolute advantage in a massive war against the Red-Haired Pirates.
With a full supply of 4000 Shadow Army soldiers and the magic of the Flying Dragon General, one can imagine how exhausted Xiao Yu must be right now!
The situation is even worse for the Red-Haired Pirates. Of their original crew of several thousand, only Shanks and a few other officers are left to hold them off.
The ship's doctor, Hongo, was already exhausted, having been locked in a fierce struggle with the Shadow Soldiers, including Huxing.
Then, the injury of a cadre forced him to focus on treatment.
The most tragic were Bing and Mengshida, namely the monkey and the bald man.
They were working together very well, but the monkey has now been devoured by the army of shadows.
Only the bald man with a broken leg and Shanks and others were left to put up a difficult fight.
Shanks looked up and saw that only the officers and he were left struggling to resist. His pupils contracted slightly. Had the monkey disappeared?
In fact, several cadres have been visibly injured.
Seeing this tragic scene, Shanks glared at Cheng Xiaoyu with hatred and roared, "Shadow King, I, Shanks, will never let you get away with this!"
Cheng Xiaoyu nearly died laughing when he heard Shanks's words. If it weren't for Shanks wanting to cause trouble for the original body and saying he wanted to get rid of him...
Then perhaps none of this will happen. At least, there won't be a life-or-death battle.
Thinking of this, Cheng Xiaoyu laughed loudly: "Shanks, if you hadn't been so stubborn, your Red-Haired Pirates wouldn't have faced total annihilation."
Shanks was even more furious when he heard Cheng Xiaoyu's extremely sarcastic words.
If it weren't for the fact that the Shadow King and Minos wanted to devour the sea, none of this would have happened.
Putting the facts aside, are Cheng Xiaoyu and Minos completely without fault? (◣_◢)
Thinking of this, Shanks struggled to his feet, holding the Griffin in his hand, and roared at Cheng Xiaoyu, "Shadow King, if my Red-Haired Pirates survive this calamity today, I will hunt you and Minos down with all my might."
Looking at Shanks, who remained unchanged, Cheng Xiaoyu's killing intent reached its peak.
He's going to kill Shanks here today, otherwise, given Shanks' status, he'll definitely come back.
Thinking of this, Cheng Xiaoyu's entire body erupted with black and purple magic: "Shadow Legion, follow me and kill the Red-Haired Pirates with all your might."
After Cheng Xiaoyu uttered those words, he was the first to rush towards the window where Shanks was attacking. The 4000 Shadow Army followed closely behind Cheng Xiaoyu, heading straight for the Red-Haired Pirates.
In the end, the Shadow Army formed a circle, completely surrounding the Red-Haired Pirates, leaving them with no way to escape.
Seeing this sudden turn of events, Shanks shouted, "Brothers, let's fight again!"
After saying that, Shanks, holding Griffin, once again struggled to hold off Cheng Xiaoyu.
And so, the third battle between Cheng Xiaoyu and the Red-Haired Pirates officially began.
……
The next day.
At dawn, the blinding sunlight fell on Minos's eyes.
This woke up Minos, who had fallen asleep sometime earlier.
Minos raised his hand to shield his eyes from the glaring sunlight and said helplessly, "Chief, what time is it? Hasn't the Whitebeard Pirates arrived yet?"
Ding, it's probably because it's quite far from here!
Minos sighed and said, "We were so well prepared, but we didn't expect the audience not to show up."
"This made him feel like he was being made a fool of."
*Ding* Host, don't panic. Just wait for the Whitebeard Pirates to arrive and teach them a lesson.
As Minos looked up, about to say something, a red light flashed in his eyes, and his Observation Haki swept across the island.
Then, a colossal vessel slowly emerged from the distant horizon, its massive whale skull prow the first thing to catch the eye, as if a giant beast were awakening from the deep sea.
What's most captivating is its white hull, which gleams brilliantly in the sunlight, and the Whitebeard Pirates' emblem on the sails—a skull with a crescent-shaped beard—is clearly visible.
The Whitebeard Pirates' flagship, the Moby Dick, has arrived.
The scene that appeared before his eyes made Minos smile faintly: "The Whitebeard Pirates, you've finally arrived?"
"But, I've been waiting for so long!"
Meanwhile, Whitebeard and his crew could already see the island from the sea.
Whitebeard stood at the bow of the Moby Dick, wearing a captain's coat, holding the Supreme Grade Sword "Murakumogiri" in his right hand.
It wasn't until the Moby Dick gradually reached the port of Sicily that it slowly spoke, "Is this the territory that brat Minos invaded?"
Marco, standing behind Whitebeard, chuckled upon hearing Whitebeard's question and replied, "Father, according to the intelligence from the scouts, this should be the place."
Whitebeard nodded, then asked with a puzzled look, "Has Sissvia Island always been like this? Why does it look so lifeless, like it's desolate?"
Marco chuckled upon hearing Whitebeard's words: "Dad, that's impossible! There are so many people here."
Whitebeard shook his head, a red light flashing in his eyes, and his Observation Haki swept across the entire island.
Five huge craters appeared on the island, and many places had been flattened.
The houses have long since been reduced to ruins, and many of the people Marco mentioned are no longer visible.
Suddenly, Whitebeard saw a huge chair on a flat area.
Sitting on the chair was an exceptionally domineering person. However, when he looked closely, it seemed that the other person noticed him, and their cold eyes met across the distance.
Minos, sitting on the chair, suddenly felt like he was being watched, and his Observation Haki swept over him.
All I saw was…
His eyes met those of the white-bearded man.
Minos withdrew his Observation Haki and chuckled, "Whitebeard, huh?"
"That's really interesting."
Whitebeard, on the other side, also withdrew his Observation Haki and muttered to himself, "That guy must be Minos brat!"
"But... what a monster!"
From their eye contact, Whitebeard could tell that it was the kind of gaze only a strong person could possess.
"His eyes were filled with arrogance and indifference towards all life."
It is described as "cold-blooded and ruthless".
Marco, who was standing nearby, didn't hear Whitebeard's words clearly and asked in confusion, "Dad, what did you just say?"
Whitebeard snapped out of his daze upon hearing Marco's words and slowly said, "Let's go! I already know where Minos is!"
After saying that, without waiting for Marco to say anything, Whitebeard jumped off the Moby Dick and landed on the island.
Marco and the others on the ship had no choice but to go straight to land.
Surprisingly, only the main crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates appeared in this battle.
That is, the squad leader.
……
P.S.: The great battle is about to begin. (◣_◢)
