"Fierce Tiger Preying!"
As Nox attacked Hamedy, Sola's pair of black tiger claws, like a hunter in the final moments of killing their prey, simultaneously struck towards Nox's head and heart.
At the critical moment, after cutting Hamedy flying, Nox retracted the Seven Star Sword to block in front of his chest. At the same time, he sidestepped to avoid the tiger claws aimed at his head, then quickly retreated to recover from the force of his recent strike.
Nox retreated, and Sola didn't dare to advance alone. She only felt safe after the flying Hamedy returned and fought alongside her again.
This man in front of them was simply too strong. Facing their combined attack, he showed no sign of weakness at all. In fact, it seemed neither of them was his match.
"Yo hahahaha, Army Marshal? Let Captain John send you on your way!"
John locked onto his opponent, who was Army Marshal Jenore Bolton. He remembered this man; he was one of those who had surrounded Rocks back then and wasn't killed by Rocks in the end.
"Just a minor Executive Officer from the Rocks Pirates back then, and you dare to seek death!"
Army Marshal Jenore saw John, who had transformed into a devil form, charge over. He also began to fight, blocking John.
"Fleet Admiral Kong, let's fight!"
Silver Axe chose the Fleet Admiral as his opponent. He had personally witnessed Kong fighting Rocks back then. The fact that he didn't die under Rocks' hand was enough to show how strong he was!
But the current Silver Axe had also become significantly stronger than before. The Riki Riki Fruit had given him a huge boost!
Even though he had been defeated by Nox back then, he had been somewhat disheartened, but he quickly recovered. He believed that as his Devil Fruit ability continued to develop, he would become stronger and stronger, and he even had the confidence to surpass Nox, who had defeated him!
"Pirates, you are bound to lose this time!"
The vigorous and still strong Kong's invincible bone fists slammed onto Silver Axe's giant axe.
"You're the newly promoted CP0, right? Hahahaha, all the CP0 were killed by us. I didn't expect there to be one left. Let me, World, take your head!"
World found the man wearing a CP0 uniform among the remaining people. For some reason, he particularly disliked rats from the gutter like CP0.
"More-More Hundred Times Gun!"
World took out the Desert Eagle pistol Nox had given him. The moment he pulled the trigger, the bullet's power instantly increased a hundredfold, blasting towards the CP0.
This shot was more than a hundred times more powerful than when he used the flintlock pistol before.
After all, the base power of the Desert Eagle was more than twice as strong as his flintlock pistol. After being magnified a hundred times, it naturally became more than a hundred times stronger!
"Distortion!"
However, the newly promoted CP0 Deputy Chief, Alos Robertson, just raised his hand for a moment and distorted the trajectory of the bullet, which was like a cannonball originally aimed at him, sending it towards the sky.
He was a user of the Paramecia-type Distortion Fruit. It was through the power of this Devil Fruit that he was able to be promoted to CP0 Deputy Chief!
And this was the support given to the World Government by the Celestial Dragons family.
"This Devil Fruit is interesting!"
Although World didn't recognize what Devil Fruit it was, he had a rough idea and decided to test it further.
The Celestial Dragons' support for the World Government wasn't just one Paramecia-type Distortion Fruit, but three powerful Devil Fruits.
These three Devil Fruits helped the World Government create three powerhouses with the strength of CP0 Deputy Chief level, but the Celestial Dragons family did not send their family powerhouses to help the World Government fight this war.
It was simply because so many Celestial Dragons had just been massacred. The Celestial Dragons currently lacked a severe sense of security and absolutely would not send out the powerhouses protecting their own family to help the World Government fight a war.
Powerful Devil Fruits can greatly increase strength, just like when John, Silver Axe, and Wang Zhi didn't eat Devil Fruits back then.
When they fought individually against Kong, they would be defeated by Kong in less than an hour at most.
But Silver Axe, after eating a Devil Fruit, could clash head-on with Kong without falling behind!
Besides the CP0 Deputy Chief, the other two powerhouses who were created were intercepted by Wang Zhi and the other by Shiki's two strongest Executive Officers.
"This time we will completely eliminate you pirates!"
The four Gorosei also stepped forward at this moment, their gaze fixed on the only remaining Golden Lion on the pirate side.
Four against one, they didn't believe Golden Lion could defeat them.
"Kekekekekeke, Roger, since you're here, come out. Don't hide and tuck away!"
Seeing this scene, Golden Lion was not flustered at all. Instead, he shouted loudly towards the crowd not far away.
"Hahahaha, Golden Lion, I didn't expect you to find us!"
Seeing that he had been discovered, Roger also stepped out generously, followed by Rayleigh and Gaban, his two right-hand men.
"Kekekekekeke, when Nox told me you were coming, I didn't quite believe it, but I didn't expect it to be true!"
"Roger, let's join forces and kill these four old guys!"
Golden Lion laughed heartily and mocked the four Gorosei.
"Hahahaha, Gorosei? We cooperated to kill Rocks back then, but I didn't expect us to become enemies now."
Although Roger did not answer directly, he had already stood with Golden Lion.
Although the Gorosei had previously speculated that the Roger Pirates might make a move, they did not expect the Roger Pirates to actually come at this critical moment!
This made them very unhappy. If the Roger Pirates hadn't appeared, the World Government would have won this war!
"Kill!!"
Finance War God Nasujuro Saint, his eyes immediately turned cold. His Supreme Grade Sword, First Generation Ghost Tormentor, was unsheathed. Strange cold air wrapped around it, and Haoshoku Haki was attached to the blade.
At the same time, in the blink of an eye, his lower body transformed into a skeletal horse form, his four hooves floated off the ground, his eyes became extremely demonic, and flame clouds surrounded his body.
The moment Nasujuro Saint transformed, Golden Lion immediately felt a threat, which made his Kenbunshoku Haki expand to its limit.
His eyes simply couldn't see Nasujuro Saint's movement, but he vaguely felt danger.
The next moment, Golden Lion's two swords suddenly crossed to the left.
"Clang!!"
The First Generation Ghost Tormentor, which was about to cleave Golden Lion's head, was blocked by him.
However, after blocking this sword, Nasujuro Saint disappeared from Golden Lion's sight and returned to his original position.
"Illusion, what a tricky ability!"
Golden Lion knew this guy's ability from Wang Zhi, who had fought him before.
"Hahahaha, let's have a fight, Gorosei!"
"Kamusari!"
Seeing the Gorosei make a move, Roger drew his Supreme Grade Sword, Ace. Top-level Busoshoku and Haoshoku Haki surged out. With one slash, lightning flashed and thunder roared, making even gods retreat!
"Ghost Slash!"
Nasujuro Saint narrowed his eyes, holding the First Generation Ghost Tormentor. In an instant, he met Roger's slash. Compared to the flying Golden Lion, he preferred to fight the non-flying Roger!
"How could this be!!"
Nasujuro Saint thought he had overestimated Roger, but he didn't expect he had still underestimated him!
Roger's Kamusari broke through his Ghost Slash like a hot knife through butter. Ace forcefully slashed onto his First Generation Ghost Tormentor. The top-level Haki instantly shattered his Haki defense and blasted through the First Generation Ghost Tormentor onto his body.
"Kekekekekeke, don't look around, your opponent is me, Golden Lion!"
After Roger started fighting, Golden Lion set his sights on Mars Saint, the only one who could fly. His Mythical Zoan Garuda form could fly!
Immediately after, Rayleigh and Gaban also blocked the remaining two Gorosei.
Although the three members of the Roger Pirates seemed to be fighting hard, in reality, they were just holding back, just blocking the enemy.
With Roger's obvious holding back, Golden Lion didn't say much. After all, they came to participate in the war, not to fight to the death. It was good enough that they could help him block three Gorosei.
While the top-tier forces engaged in a full-scale confrontation, the mid-tier and lower-tier forces below the top-tier were also locked in a fierce battle.
It was impossible for all 400,000+ pirates to participate in the battle at once. 200,000 pirates served as the vanguard, engaging the Marine. The Marine also sent out over 200,000 people to block the pirates.
After all, the battlefield was only so large. Excluding the battlefields segmented by the top-tier forces, the remaining battlefield could accommodate a maximum of 600,000 people fighting.
"Kill!!!"
"Hahaha, kill the Marine and collect Berries!"
"Pirate, die!"
"..."
The entire battlefield was like a meat grinder. In the chaotic battle of nearly 500,000 people, countless individuals became cannon fodder and died on this island.
For a time, the killing was everywhere. Countless corpses lay on the ground, and blood flowed like a river into the Sea. However, the surrounding Sea Kings did not dare to approach this island. The terrifying Haoshoku Haki suppressed their greed with fear.
"Hahahaha, I'll kill you all!!"
Some of the pirates under the Limitless Pirates, armed with machine guns and submachine guns developed by the Limitless Pirates, were defending a single area.
Any Marine who approached was suppressed by the powerful firepower and couldn't get close to them, even if the Marine also tried to fight back with flintlock pistols and rifles.
But the range of those flintlock pistols and rifles couldn't compare to the Limitless Pirates' firearms. The Marine didn't even have a chance to shoot before they were shot and killed by the Limitless Pirates.
There was even a group of dedicated snipers, armed with powerful sniper rifles developed by the Limitless Pirates, continuously sniping the Marine from high positions in the rear.
The superior sniping range prevented the Marine from breaking through to the snipers before being intercepted by the pirates in front.
The twenty snipers could safely snipe the Marine with almost no danger at all.
"The Limitless Pirates' firearms are really powerful, I want to buy some too!!"
Seeing the power of the Limitless Pirates' firearms, many pirates' eyes lit up. Such powerful firepower was simply completely overwhelming the Marine!
Seeing how the Limitless Pirates had minimal losses with their powerful firearms and killed far more Marine than they did, they immediately thought of the news that the Limitless Pirates had previously said they would sell firearms at half price.
The pirates in the rear who were not participating in the battle were also watching the battlefield. Seeing this scene, they all went to the Limitless Pirates to purchase firearms.
The Limitless Pirates had already brought enough firearms, and even afterwards, the Limitless Pirates were continuously transporting firearms to ensure the sufficiency of firearms in this war.
In just one day, 150,000 people had already died on this island.
Eighty percent of the deaths were Marine and Army, while the pirate side only lost 30,000 people.
After a day of fighting, the surviving pirates were all exhausted. They were not monsters who could fight for ten days and nights. Their stamina was remarkable for supporting them to fight for a day. After receiving the order, they quickly retreated.
At the same time, the 200,000 people who were originally resting in the rear immediately rushed forward and continued to fight against the Marine, not giving the Marine any chance to catch their breath.
And the pirates who returned to the rear had dedicated doctors to provide medical treatment, especially the doctors sent by the Limitless Pirates and the special healing medicine they provided, which received unanimous praise from the pirates.
The Flying Pirates had already prepared food and chefs on two islands, providing various foods to the retreating pirates. After they ate their fill, they rested.
A day later, the pirates in the front retreated again, and the pirates in the rear rushed up.
On the second day, another 150,000 people died, with the Marine side losing as many as 120,000 people, and the pirate side losing over 30,000 people.
Among the casualties on the Marine side, seventy percent were Army. This was because the Army was too useless, and those sent were all cannon fodder.
After all, most of the Army were green recruits who had never even seen blood.
After all, the Army's task was to protect the safety of the World Government and the Celestial Dragons on the Red Line. There was almost no war on the Red Line, so they had no use for their skills.
In addition, there were hundreds of millions of people living on the Red Line, and many were poor, so it was very easy for the Army to recruit people, and there were no barriers.
For this war, the Army specifically expanded its recruitment, just to pull in a batch of cannon fodder to fill the numbers.
On the pirate side, even though they lost over 60,000 people in two days, the World Economic News Agency reported the battle situation in two days, making people aware of how fierce the fighting was here.
The treatment was also as Nox and Golden Lion had said before: they could exchange the lives of Marine for Berries. Many pirates who survived a day of war also received a lot of Berries and left the battlefield directly, spreading the news.
This attracted more pirates to rush to this battlefield. It can be said that the 60,000 pirates lost have now been replenished to the level of 400,000 people by the pirates who came one after another.
It wasn't just scattered pirates; the Limitless Pirates under Nox were also doing the same. The Limitless Pirates sent another 30,000 pirates and sent back the over 20,000 pirates who had experienced two days of war and were unwilling to continue fighting.
In the following days, Nox will continue to do this, bringing in the pirates who are guarding the Limitless Sea and exchanging them for the severely injured and unwilling pirates who are unwilling to continue fighting.
