"Hahaha, again!!"
Ashura Doji charged forward again with his di mie sword. What shockwave? He was going to defeat the opponent today!
"Second Stage Impact!!"
Howard was also fearless, gathering a large amount of shockwaves again and blasting them out.
The Devil Fruit he ate was the Paramecia-type Shock-Shock Fruit, which could emit powerful shockwaves.
The second battle between the two sides was still the same as before. Ashura Doji and Howard were both sent flying by each other's attacks.
However, Ashura Doji's defense and vitality were stronger. If the battle continued, Ashura Doji would definitely win.
Seeing this scene, Nox, who was standing not far away, did not intervene in their battle, but let Ashura Doji resolve it himself.
Now that the Limitless Pirates have initially grown, Nox does not need to personally handle everything. His subordinates can handle things themselves.
"I should go to the palace and just break it down."
Although Nox did not plan to intervene in the battles of his subordinates, he would not stand by and watch the entire war.
"Your Majesty, we have packed the treasures. Let's go quickly!"
The minister and a group of subordinates were carrying many boxes, taking the King from the back garden of the palace, wanting to escape through a secret passage.
"Damn Limitless Pirates!!"
The King took a final look at his palace, gritted his teeth, and entered the secret passage with the minister.
"Buzz!!!!"
However, before they could even enter the secret passage, a powerful and invincible Haoshoku Haki swept across the entire palace.
Blood-red lightning, like ten thousand thunderbolts, spread to every corner of the palace.
Everyone in the entire palace, and even within a radius of a thousand meters outside the palace, fainted under the deterrence of this invincible Haoshoku Haki.
"Oh? You want to run?"
Nox quickly found King Richard of Hasmu Kingdom at the entrance of the secret passage based on the intelligence officer's report.
"Splash splash!!"
Nox had someone bring a basin of cold water and pour it over King Richard's head, making him completely sober.
"Ah!!! Who, who dares..."
After King Richard woke up, he let out a pig-like scream and shouted angrily, but before he could finish shouting, he saw Nox standing in front of him, looking down at him from above, and his scream stopped abruptly.
"Mr. Nox, I have treasures. All the treasures of the Hasmu Kingdom will be given to you. Please spare my life!!"
King Richard pleaded urgently, afraid that Nox would kill him with a single sword.
"Where are all the treasures of your kingdom hidden?"
Nox didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.
"Our King's treasure is in the palace treasury..."
King Richard immediately told him where his country's treasures were, without any hesitation.
"Pfft!!!"
However, just as he finished speaking, he felt a pain in his throat and subconsciously wanted to cover it, but his hands and feet couldn't move.
He wanted to say something, but his vocal cords were already broken, and he couldn't make any sound.
He never expected to end up like this, being killed right after revealing the location of the treasure!
"You lied, there's another treasure location you didn't mention."
After Richard's head fell to the ground, Nox said lightly with an indifferent expression.
Then he went to the treasure location Richard mentioned, took out all the Devil Fruits from the treasure, and gave the remaining ordinary treasures to his subordinates to transport back.
Marineford:
"These trash Pirates are actually targeting the Allied Nations again!"
"Call Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr to me!"
Kong said angrily after receiving intelligence from the Gorosei.
Now the Marine has almost lost control of the New World, and they really can't manage the affairs of the Allied Nations in the New World.
But the Gorosei still ordered him to support the Allied Nations. If the Gorosei hadn't said that there would be support to help the Marine, he wouldn't have bothered with the Allied Nations' pleas for help.
"Fleet Admiral!" × 3
Soon, Sengoku and the other two came to Kong's office.
"The Pirates in the New World, Nox, Golden Lion, John, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, Brandon, and World, are currently attacking seven Allied Nations."
"Our target is to support the closest Kingdom of Hines to us, and the one attacking the Kingdom of Hines is Violence King Brandon!"
"This operation must be covert. It's best to arrest Brandon before other Pirates come to support him."
Kong said seriously.
"Fleet Admiral, what if other Pirates also come to support Brandon?"
Sengoku said with some worry.
Just like last time, the three of them were ambushed and almost capsized.
"You don't have to worry about that. When you set off, the World Government's support will follow behind you and set off with you."
"However, they will not show themselves, but will hide in the dark. If other Pirates come to support Brandon, they will take action."
Kong said. This was also the reason why he felt confident letting Sengoku and the other two go to support.
After the ambush last time, Kong was a little scared.
If Sengoku and the other two were lost in the New World, it would be a fatal blow to the Marine.
After the loss of the lower and middle-level combat power, it can be slowly replenished.
But if the top-level Sengoku and the other two are lost, the Marine will probably be in a low period for the next ten or even decades.
"Yes, Fleet Admiral!!"
After hearing Kong's words, Sengoku was relieved.
It was because the Pirates in the New World were too strong and too many now.
In a one-on-one situation, even he, an Admiral, couldn't take down those great Pirates, and might even lose. It was really hard to describe!
Kingdom of Hines:
"Captain, Captain, there's news that the Marine has set out, and they are heading towards the Kingdom of Hines."
Jenos, the strategist of the Violence Pirates, hurried to Violence King Brandon's side to report.
With the previous lessons learned, Jenos suggested that the Violence Pirates should come to plunder the Kingdom of Hines early this morning.
At this moment, they had completely conquered the Kingdom of Hines, and all that was left was the work of searching for and transporting treasures, and they would be able to completely plunder the Kingdom of Hines.
And as a strategist, although Jenos was not strong, his intelligence work was good. He spent a lot of money to buy Marine intelligence.
Once the New World Marine is dispatched, they can receive the news.
In fact, what Jenos didn't know was that the news he bought was sold to him by Shakky of the Limitless Pirates. Otherwise, not everyone could get their hands on the intelligence of an Admiral.
"Hahaha, you're still smart, Jenos. Immediately notify the subordinates to quickly move all the treasures. Those small things can be abandoned."
"Notify Shiki and the others to come to support. The destination is Sando Island!"
Violence King Brandon laughed heartily.
He is a Muscle-Muscle Fruit user, full of muscles, but he knows the importance of intelligence, so he found a strategist to make up for his other shortcomings.
Now it seems that this strategist is very useful.
"No problem!"
Jenos nodded.
After the cooperation with Nox and the others last time, the second cooperation became much smoother.
They also shared some of the processes and methods, such as scouting in advance, planning the retreat route, planning the island to fight the Marine on, and so on.
Hasmu Kingdom:
"Hahahaha, it seems you can't do it anymore!"
"One Sword Style · Blood Moon Slash!!"
Ashura Doji, covered in bruises but extremely crazy, unleashed a blood moon slash over fifty meters long.
"Explosive Punch!!"
Howard gritted his teeth, enduring the pain all over his body, gathered impact force on his fist, and punched towards the oncoming powerful slash.
"Boom!!!"
Dust rolled, and the ground shattered. The blood moon slash was shattered by Howard's punch, but he himself fell to the ground.
He lost, losing because his physical strength was not strong enough and he was dragged down by Ashura Doji's tenacious vitality.
"Your name is Howard, right? You are very strong. Our Captain intends to recruit you to join our Limitless Pirates."
"Your daughter has already been taken away by our Limitless Pirates. If you are willing to join our Limitless Pirates, we will cure your daughter and their illness within three days."
"These are the words our Captain asked me to bring to you."
Ashura Doji said, standing in front of the fallen Howard.
"Koby, Koya!!!!"
Hearing Ashura Doji's words, Howard's body, which was lying on the ground, seemed to be injected with new vitality, and he struggled to his feet again.
He had no feelings for this kingdom. If it weren't for his daughter, he wouldn't have been willing to stop the Limitless Pirates.
Now that his daughter had fallen into the hands of the Limitless Pirates, he naturally wouldn't stop Ashura Doji.
"Where are my child?"
Howard asked with difficulty.
"Follow me!"
Ashura Doji said with a smile.
"Nox, news has come from Brandon that the Marine is heading towards him."
Shakky sent over the news from Brandon.
"Okay, I know. We have already conquered the Hasmu Kingdom. Have Lesley send people to take over this kingdom."
"Help me guide the mirror to Sando Island, and also, according to my previous plan, deploy in advance on Sando Island."
Nox responded.
"Absolutely no problem."
Shakky said confidently.
Nox received the news from Brandon, and Golden Lion and the others naturally also received it.
Just as they had agreed before, after leaving things to their subordinates, they immediately rushed to Sando Island.
When Nox received the news from Brandon, he had already arrived at Sando Island and had people make some deployments in advance there.
"I hope what I've done will be useful."
After all the deployments were completed, Nox had his people leave Sando Island and stood there alone, waiting for the others to arrive.
