"It's a fight; Yasha and the others are fighting Leif." Jonathan and Susanna borrowed a telescope from the Astra Militarum and witnessed the situation on Leif's island.

Leif was fighting against Yasha, Paul, and Kidd, the three supernovas, and the battle was a mess. The three supernovas were Devil Fruit Users, and those who could be called supernovas were the best among the young generation. Their strength was even comparable to that of an ordinary Vice Admiral.

"Susanna, can Yasha and the others win?" Jonathan asked nervously.

"Hard to say." Susanna shook her head; her face was a bit gloomy.

At the same time, Fleming, Ewart, Hudnall, and other officers were also watching the battle on the island. The three supernovas, Yasha, Paul, and Kidd, were cooperating well. They advanced and retreated in an orderly manner while using their abilities and skills to the fullest.

In each corner, they surrounded Leif in the middle. The attack was one wave after another, and the fight was loud and clear.

From the surface, Leif seemed to be pinned and beaten, with little ability to fight back. The situation appeared one-sided.

However, Fleming and the others were not optimistic; they had learned from Susanna and Modo about the approximate strength of Leif.

"Previously, Yasha and the others challenged Leif several times," Hudnall analyzed. "But none of them ever succeeded because Leif's ability fruit is too fearsome. After taking it, not only did he transform into a giant, but his physique also became super strong. He is known for having the most powerful body in the Navy. Even if Leif stood there and let the three supernovas hit him, he wouldn't be hurt. So..."

He glanced at everyone and continued, "We can't put our hopes on these three supernovas; we must plan for the worst scenario."

And that's what happened: Leif spent half a day fighting. It looked like Giant Leif was taking a beating, while the three supernovas made all kinds of moves. But Leif had a calm expression, letting the attacks land on his body.

He glanced at the three supernovas, unfazed, and laughed: "Yasha, Paul, Kidd, you have grown slightly in strength these days, but it's still not enough to tickle me."

"Damn it!" Seeing this scene, Jonathan on the ship slightly clenched his fists, feeling a mix of anger and helplessness. "Why is Leif so strong? Yasha and the others couldn't even break his defense?"

"Those rumors about Leif are not false," Susanna replied. "Legend has it that Leif used to be a pirate and was captured a dozen times by the Navy. Each time, they tortured him and guillotined him several times, but no matter who the executioner was, they weren't able to chop off Leif's head. With fire, water, and lightning, all kinds of methods were used, but they could do nothing to Leif. After that, as a last resort, they recruited Leif to be a Vice Admiral."

"Fortunately, Leif's attack power is not as strong as his defense; otherwise..." Susanna looked at the fight on the island and said, "He would be invincible."

"Not to mention the three supernovas; even if there were ten more, it would be useless. This opportunity is too good to pass up," Jonathan said reluctantly. "Everyone on Leif's island is in chaos, and Leif is the only one left. If we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to deal with him in the future."

"No, I have to go help Yasha and the others!" Jonathan proclaimed, but Susanna stopped him, saying, "It's useless for you to go."

"At least I can help some; maybe it will work," Jonathan said anxiously.

"There is no need to rush at the moment," Susanna advised. "Now, the only hope may have to be placed on the otherworlders."

"Them?" Jonathan asked, slightly puzzled. "Those weapons of theirs are powerful, but can they be stronger than a supernova's attack? Three supernovas teamed up and couldn't even injure Leif. It's even more impossible for these people."

"I don't know why these people are coming against Leif, but..." Susanna stated blandly, "I have a hunch that they must have come prepared."

At that moment, a guardsman arrived and said, "General Fleming requests you two!"

"Hmm?" Jonathan and Susanna were slightly stunned. They glanced at each other, then followed the guardsman to the meeting room.

Inside the meeting room, Fleming, Ewart, Simon, and others had gathered, discussing every detail and step of the plan.

Seeing Jonathan and Susanna arrive, Fleming looked up and said, "Please sit down. I requested you both here because I need your help with something."

"Ask us to help?" Hearing these words, Jonathan paused for a moment. He couldn't help but ask, "You guys are going to deal with Leif?"

"Of course." Fleming couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Otherwise, why did we go through so much effort to rescue you from Jail Island?"

"But..." Jonathan hesitated for a moment and said, "You've seen Leif's strength. His body is very strong, so I'm afraid those weapons of yours can't break the defense."

"We know that," Fleming smiled and said. "So we need a more elaborate plan, and for that, we need your help!"

Before inviting them, after seeing the three supernovas besieging Leif, the Astra Militarum abandoned the previous two plans. This time, before coming to the island, the Astra Militarum had made four plans to take out Leif. One of the plans was to use a virus to infect him!

Although it might not fully infect him, as long as it blurred Leif's consciousness, it would be enough, and then they could use heavy weapons to kill him. Last time, in the combat assessment of the examination, that's how they dealt with the Flame Giant.

After seeing Leif's defense, they abandoned the infection plan. With such alarming defense, the virus was impossible to work. The latest type of super virus developed by Dr. Han could, at most, infect people at Modo's level. There was no way to go any further.

The other plan was to use fighter jets for concentrated bombardment on Leif by using countless amounts of ammunition to blast him to death, or at least injure him. However, this plan's success rate was even lower than the infection plan.

The Astra Militarum originally wanted to try it out, but after assessing Leif's defense, they abandoned it. There were only two plans left, and these two needed the help of Jonathan and Susanna, especially Jonathan's ability.

"You... what are you planning?" Susanna asked. Although she had a prophetic ability, it wasn't all-knowing. Every time she cast the prophecy ability, it would take a lot of energy.

"We are going to ambush Leif somewhere on the island, but this exact location cannot be determined right now, so we need your help," Fleming said, looking at Susanna.

"No problem," Susanna immediately agreed, even if it meant making a deduction to help the Astra Militarum find the best location.

"What about me?" Jonathan also asked eagerly.

"Don't worry," Fleming smiled. His plan was in full swing.

Soon, Susanna found the best location, and the Astra Militarum mobilized many men to this location. At the same time, crate after crate of gunpowder was transported. The Astra Militarum prepared to plant a very large amount of gunpowder on the island to blow Leif away in one fell swoop.

There was some controversy within the Astra Militarum about the specific amount of gunpowder. To be on the safe side, they transported about 5,000 tons of gunpowder. Last time, in the combat assessment of the examination against the Dark Elf, they had used 200 tons, and it blew them up. But now they were dealing with Leif.

According to Sebastian's guess: "This is at least a Level 2."

Looking at the image of Giant Leif and the three supernovas fighting, Sebastian already had a judgment in his mind. Furthermore, it was the most powerful supernatural individual they had seen.

"No wonder it's an Eternal Level mission; it's at least a Level 2 supernatural," Sebastian couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The difference between Level 1 and Level 2 was significant; the Amethyst Behemoth that Yeattine created was already considered the best of Level 1. They are more powerful than the Flame Giant but incomparably weaker than Leif. Even an ordinary commander like Modo could not compare, and Modo's strength was estimated to be at the peak of Level 1.

A Vice Admiral was at least Level 2, and Leif was the most powerful in the rank of Vice Admiral. The most critical point was that he had an extremely exaggerated defense.

"No wonder the system said that the success rate was only 30%." Sebastian couldn't help but murmur, "The system saved me some face. If they attacked with conventional tactics, the probability is estimated to be less than 10%."

Transporting 5,000 tons of gunpowder was a big problem; it was the equivalent of 5,000 large crates.

Fortunately, the dozens of Flame Giants captured by the Astra Militarum came in handy. The Flame Giants were now tamed by the Astra Militarum and shipped over for this purpose. Their only function was to transport goods, and each Flame Giant carried several large boxes. Around the island, they transported the boxes to the designated location.

At the same time, the rest of the Astra Militarum did not stay idle; they also worked together. After several trips, all 5,000 large crates were transported.

At this time, the fight between the three supernovas and Leif reached its most intense point.

"You guys have had enough tickling; it's my turn," Leif laughed.

With that, he started a counterattack! With one punch, he knocked the nearest one, Yasha, out of the way. The three supernovas had been besieging him for so long that it consumed a lot of their physical strength.

But the reason why the three dared to provoke Leif so boldly was due to the special and powerful abilities they possessed. Getting hit hard was no big deal for them.

Giant Leif's counterattack had begun. With one punch, he knocked the three supernovas away. But the three still didn't give up, wiping the blood from the corners of their mouths, and stood up again.

"If you dare to make trouble on my island today, don't even think about leaving," Leif warned, taking a big step towards the three.

It just so happened that he stepped into the ambush spot of the Astra Militarum.

"It's done!" Upon seeing this, Fleming and the other high officials, as well as Susanna, breathed a sigh of relief. Her prediction was still reliable.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble...

Leif stomped forward, and the ground trembled with each step. He didn't even notice that beneath his feet, several fuses were burning.
