# Chapter 489: The Threat of Ancient Weapons
"What do you think?"
The battle footage was quickly sent back to Headquarters.
Looking at the footage that was only a few minutes long, the three couldn't help but fall silent.
For Strongman like them, a few minutes of battle footage was enough to see many things.
Möbius's astonishing speed when he arrived, and his ability to end the battle in a short time.
It was effortless and relaxed.
For Möbius, it was a slaughter.
"His ability is still uncertain, but he's truly a monster.
I wouldn't want to encounter him on the battlefield.
No matter where, he'd be trouble," Tsuru said somewhat seriously.
"Undoubtedly S-rank talent."
Zephyr's eyes lit up, as if seeing a beautiful jade.
Tsuru saw more of the threat and effects brought by Möbius's ability.
As the Navy Chief Instructor, Zephyr also had a bit of professional habit.
Even though Möbius didn't personally act, he could still see the strength of Möbius's physique, and his body technique was also not weak.
His perfect control over each tentacle, and covering all the black tendons with Haki, all showed Möbius's astonishing attainment in body control.
"Cough, cough!
The Underworld Serpent is Hades's son.
Try not to bother him.
Whatever he does has nothing to do with us."
"Just treat him like a Celestial Dragons."
Kong coughed twice.
The Kronos Kingdom was a kingdom he couldn't afford to offend.
Möbius, as Hades's son, was himself the Prince of the Kronos Kingdom.
His identity was noble.
If he accidentally provoked him, he could only apologize.
As the Fleet Admiral, he knew far more than others, even Vice Admiral Tsuru, who could access the Marines' Intelligence Force.
Having been in the Marines for so many years, Kong also had connections within the World Government and could know more things.
For example, back then, in order to reach reconciliation with the Kronos Kingdom, how much the World Government actually paid.
Especially since he himself didn't want to offend Hades.
Compared to "Death God" Ye Ge, who once shook the Great Sea, "Pluto" Hades had long surpassed him.
So many years have passed, who knows how terrifying Hades is.
What's more, the Kronos Kingdom also has the Monster "Glutton" Titan.
It's unknown how many powerful combatants are hidden in the dark.
Especially now that Hades's Child are still growing, and there's more than one.
"Underworld Serpent" Möbius, Styx, Kasa.
That's three already, and it's unknown how many more there are.
The more you look at the Kronos Kingdom, the more unfathomable it becomes, and the more you can't afford to offend it.
Kong didn't want to discuss such matters too much.
As for Möbius's safety?
There's no need to consider it at all.
Just looking at Möbius's strength, on the surface of the Four Seas, no one is his opponent.
Those with strength also couldn't possibly actively provoke Möbius, who has the Kronos Kingdom standing behind him.
Don't underestimate the Kronos Kingdom's influence in the World.
Even though the Trade Route has been established, it still couldn't shake the Kronos Kingdom's position.
Those supplies from the New World are luxuries for the people of the Four Seas, attracting countless people to pursue them, and inherently possess astonishing value.
Treating Möbius like a Celestial Dragons is enough to show how much Kong values him.
What Kong didn't say yet was, despite saying he wouldn't bother with Möbius.
If Möbius truly encountered danger, the Marines might even have to send an Admiral to rescue him.
Putting this topic aside.
"We need to be careful next.
Our attention needs to turn back to the New World.
Zephyr, you'll also have to take action then."
"That guy Roger, according to the World Government's intelligence, is searching for the whereabouts of the ancient weapon.
He might already have relevant clues."
"The Roger Pirates are becoming increasingly dangerous.
Their threat level sequence has already surpassed the Flying Pirates.
We must stop him.
If he really obtains the ancient weapon, the entire World will be in danger."
Kong said with a solemn expression.
He had just received this news from the World Government not long ago.
"Ancient weapon?
Does such a thing still exist?"
Hearing about the legendary ancient weapon, both Zephyr and Tsuru were extremely shocked.
However, Tsuru's eyes flashed, and she seemed to have thought of something.
Zephyr seemed to have realized it too.
They had all experienced the Battle of God Valley.
It could be said they barely survived.
They witnessed that terrifying thing fall with their own eyes, nearly destroying everything.
There are three legendary ancient weapons capable of destroying the World.
The World Government likely holds one in their hands.
However, if such a thing were to fall into the hands of a mad pirate, who knows how much trouble it would cause.
Especially those who control a Great Power, like the Flying Pirates, who are completely opposed to the World Government.
Blood War Island alone caused the Marines heavy losses.
They lose at least three thousand people every month, four to five thousand is normal, and at most, the number of losses in a month reached six thousand.
Up until now, the population who died in battle on Blood War Island has exceeded sixty thousand.
The Marines can only increase recruitment to compensate for the losses.
And the Army to alleviate the stress.
Before the Rocks Era, the Marines and the Army could be said to have a competitive relationship and had little contact.
But the Army looked down on the Marines, and the Marines looked down on the Army.
Until the Rocks Era brought about change, every time, the Army had to use their lives to alleviate the stress on the Great Sea for the Marines.
This made Kong and the other Marine High Command feel somewhat embarrassed.
Thoughts of disliking the Army naturally couldn't arise.
Although a batch of elite were trained, many Marines emerged from the battlefield and received focused cultivation.
Within the Elite Training Camp, there were some warriors who performed exceptionally on Blood War Island, recommended by General to enter the Elite Training Camp for further study.
However, outstanding pirates also appeared on the pirate side.
And others besides pirates joined the bloody battle.
It's impossible to exhaust the prize pool.
The prize pool on Blood War Island is basically growing at a speed of five to eight hundred million Beli per month.
Even if the prize money is insufficient, Great Pirates led by the Flying Pirates will also take out some money to supplement the prize pool.
Secretly, the Flying Pirates are also searching for the whereabouts of the legendary ancient weapon to resist the mysterious weapon controlled by the World Government.
"It's clear, from the trajectory of the Roger Pirates in the New World, they seem to be searching for something."
"Garp is keeping a close eye on them, and Sengoku is also ready to provide support at any time.
They absolutely cannot be allowed to succeed."
Kong was clearly somewhat wary, because they had already witnessed destructive power similar to that of an ancient weapon and absolutely didn't want to see such a thing fall into the hands of the enemy.
"The Flying Pirates also need to be closely watched.
That guy Shiki is also restless."
The threat posed by ancient weapons is enough to make the Marines stand ready.
As for the Void Century, they wouldn't care about such a thing.
