Do you think I'm joking with you?
"I am the Golden Lion," the Golden Lion said coldly.
He disdained to join forces with others.
"That's a real shame, Shiki." Charlotte Linlin shook her head slightly in disappointment.
"Fortunately."
Silver Axe and the others relaxed upon hearing Golden Lion's words. The arrogant Golden Lion disdained to join forces with others, which gave them a foothold on this island.
Without further ado, the seven engaged in a fierce battle on the island.
…………
the other side
In the North Sea, in a certain sea area, the Navy Headquarters has already mobilized.
The team was led by Garp, Sengoku, Zephyr, and Tsuru, and included many elite naval vice admirals. This fighting force would instill fear in anyone who saw it.
On a naval warship, Sengoku was speaking to Kokuboku with a solemn expression.
"I understand." Zhan Guo took a deep breath and hung up the phone.
"Is even Bernard Issain going to compete for the design blueprints this time?"
Garp sat to the side, took a sip of tea, and slowly placed it on the table. He was no longer his usual carefree self, and his expression was somewhat somber.
"According to Cyborg, Bernard Issa is suspected of betraying the World Government, so our main task in this operation is to do everything in our power to prevent him from obtaining the blueprints."
Sengoku rested his chin on his hands and said in a heavy tone.
No matter how he thought about it, he didn't believe that Bernard Is was someone who would betray the World Government.
But these were orders from above, and he couldn't ask too many questions.
"Does Bernard Issa have any intention of betraying the World Government?" Garp asked bluntly.
"Nobody knows for sure, but don't forget that none of Bernard Is's subordinates are simple characters. His subordinates do not belong to the World Government, but only to Bernard Is Saint, and they only obey him."
“With so many powerful allies, and unwilling to be subordinate to anyone, it’s not impossible that he might try to turn the World Government against him,” Tsuru explained.
“I don’t believe that the Bernard Iss Society has betrayed the World Government,” Garp said solemnly upon hearing this.
"This kind of thing is a conflict between world governments, it has nothing to do with our navy. We just need to do what we're supposed to do, Garp," Sengoku said calmly, taking a sip of tea.
Chapter 166
The navy is the navy, and the world government is the world government.
They just need to do what the navy is supposed to do and obey orders.
As for the political struggles between world governments, they have nothing to do with it.
…………
After a long time...
On the other side, in a certain sea area of the North Sea.
"We're almost there." Is stood at the bow of the ship and saw the huge island at the horizon.
A dark cloud covered the sky above the giant island, splitting out irregularly, giving it a gloomy appearance.
Ripples occasionally surged across the island, shaking the surrounding area and causing waves to rise on the sea.
Even from a distance, one can still feel the powerful aftershocks emanating from the island, enough to prove what kind of great battle is taking place there.
"These great pirates are really going all out to steal the blueprints for the Pluto battleship," Acnologia said casually, leaning on the ship's railing as the sea breeze blew through her.
There are now seven great pirates on the island, fighting each other for the blueprints for the Pluton warship.
Even though they knew the navy would get wind of it and come to hunt them down, they still didn't run away. They wanted to find an opportunity to kill Bondiwald and steal the blueprints for the Pluton battleship.
Because they almost always fought independently, whenever one of them tried to kill Bondiwald and steal the Pluto warship blueprints from him, the others would stop him.
So after fighting for so long, no one has killed Bondiwald, nor has anyone obtained the blueprints for the Hades battleship.
The battle remained deadlocked. They knew that the longer the battle dragged on, the more dangerous it would be for them, but they still didn't want anyone else to have the opportunity to obtain the blueprints for the Hades warship.
"Pirates are basically all ambitious or psychologically twisted. They all want to rule the world or destroy it. The Pluton Battleship can realize their dreams, so it's normal for them to fight so hard," Retsu Unohana commented from her chair.
"Are we going to kill them all here, Is?"
Madara Uchiha, carrying a scythe, was ready for battle. He glanced at Is and asked a question.
“If we can kill them all, then let’s kill them,” Is replied, picking up a cup from the table and taking a sip of tea.
……
As their ship approached, many pirates on the island noticed a naval warship sailing on the sea.
"The navy has arrived."
Charlotte Lingling, holding Napoleon in both hands, stood on the white cloud Zeus, her face gloomy as she stared at the naval warships approaching in the distance.
"Damn it, the navy is here after all!" Golden Lion left the battlefield, floated in mid-air, and turned to look at the navy sailing on the sea.
"boom!"
While the Golden Lion focused his attention on the sea, John suddenly pulled the trigger and fired, the bullet, imbued with an aura of dominance, hurtling straight toward the Golden Lion.
"Shh!"
Golden Lion turned his head, gripped his famous sword, and cleaved the approaching bullet in two.
“John, Seastone bullets are useless against me. How many more times do you want to try?” the Golden Lion said calmly.
Seastone bullets are effective against Devil Fruit users. As long as the bullets hit Shiki, they will prevent Shiki from using his full power.
The problem is, you can't hit it.
“If you can hit even one shot, you’ll be at a disadvantage in this fight,” John said calmly, putting his pistol away.
Throughout the battle, he kept looking for an opportunity to attack the Golden Lion with his pistol, but he never succeeded.
"Wait... that's Is standing at the bow!"
Whitebeard suddenly realized that the man standing at the bow of the naval warship was none other than Is! The man who had killed their captain, Rocks.
"What! Is!"
Golden Lion also turned his gaze to the naval warship in surprise. Sure enough, standing at the bow was the Celestial Dragon Bernard Is, a man known as a god by the world.
"Damn it, why is it him?" Charlotte Lingling broke out in a cold sweat.
Even if Fleet Admiral Steelbone Kong came, they wouldn't be so afraid, but the one who came was Is!
"Damn it, we've wasted too much time on this island. Even the Celestial Dragons have arrived." Silver Axe stared coldly at Is, the figure standing at the bow of the ship in the distance.
"Should we leave? His strength is such that even Captain Rocks is no match for him." John began to consider retreating, because the name of Is was too famous in the world.
"Shishi Senkiri Valley!"
Just as the three were discussing retreat, the Golden Lion floated in mid-air and directly swung two famous swords, slashing at the naval warship that Is was riding on.
“Shuashuashua!!!”
Countless golden slashes rushed toward the naval warship at extremely high speed.
"Shiki, shouldn't you run away when you see me?" Is said calmly.
Paper detached from his body and coalesced into a longsword in his hand, which was covered with Armament Haki.
"Shh!"
Is wielded his sword with one hand and swung it horizontally with force, unleashing a terrifying sword aura that shattered all the golden slashes in front of him.
However, some of the Golden Lion's sword energy struck the sea, cutting through the sea surface.
The golden lion grinned, as if its scheme had succeeded.
He flicked his finger, and instantly, waves tens of meters high rose from the sea surrounding Is.
Chapter 167
On the sea surface, the waves rolled, and dozens of feet of waves rose up on both sides of the naval warship that Is was riding in.
"Is, you're a Devil Fruit user, right? Now that you've fallen into the sea, can you still unleash your full power?" Shiki said, standing in mid-air with a victorious smile on his lips.
Although he didn't know what type of Devil Fruit Is had, he was certain that Is was a Devil Fruit user.
At this time, the naval warships were still some distance from the island, so they could not land directly on it. He believed that the warship that Is was on was bound to sink.
"Snapped!"
Is remained calm, slapping the deck beneath his feet. The paper quickly separated from the ship, and then a huge wing appeared on both sides of the ship.
With the flapping of its wings, the ship took flight.
"Damn it!"
The golden lion's pupils contracted upon seeing this, and his fingers twitched, causing waves from both sides of the ship to instantly crash into their vessel.
However, the ship's flight was controlled by Is, and it flew very fast and was very agile, easily shaking off the waves and reaching the shore.
"Rem, Ram, you two stay on the ship. Acno, Yoriichi, you two are responsible for protecting them. Uchiha Madara, it's time for us to make our move."
Is anchored the boat to the shore and gave instructions to the people on board.
He actually intended to leave Remram in Mary Geoise on this trip to the North Sea, but he felt unsafe, so he brought her along.
However, their current strength is no match for Golden Lion and the others. To ensure their safety, he felt at ease leaving Yoriichi Tsugikuni and Acnologia on the ship.
“Ah… Is, should I stay and watch the ship?” Acnologia asked, somewhat displeased.
He came here intending to show off his skills, but Is actually making him stay and watch the ship.
"You just want a good fight, right? I'll play with you whenever you have time," Is said with a smile, turning his head.
"Really?" Acnologia asked excitedly.
"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?"
"It's a word."
