"Laser Cannon activated!"
All the Limitless Pirates' steel warships lined up on either side of the Hades, and as Nox's command fell, purple lightning glowed from the muzzles of all the steel warships' main cannons.
Under the scorching sun, the purple lightning glow was as bright as stars in the night sky.
The aura emanating from the muzzles terrified everyone, especially the terrifying aura from the main cannon of the Hades, which made all the great Pirates present solemn.
At this distance, the Marine warships and pirate ships had not reached their fixed range, but while they hadn't reached the range of the Marine and other Pirate Crew, they had reached the range of the Limitless Pirates!
"What is that thing?"
All the Marine on the Marine warships looked solemnly at the purple light emanating from the Limitless Pirates' hundreds of steel warships. Although they didn't know what it was, it was definitely not a good thing.
"Not good, top combatants, block it for me!"
However, Sengoku suddenly shouted loudly!
"Fire!"
As Nox gave the command, hundreds of steel warships fired simultaneously. The purple Laser Cannon turned into huge lightning pillars and shot towards the foremost Marine warships.
Hundreds of lightning pillars shot out simultaneously. The smallest lightning pillar was four meters wide in diameter, while the Laser Cannon fired from the Hades was a huge laser pillar with a diameter of fifteen meters!
The terrifying Laser Cannon fired simultaneously, sweeping across the Sea. The entire Sea was split open by the Laser Cannon. The immense power and light terrified the Marine.
"Ice Age!"
"Dark Dog!"
"Heat Expansion Cannon!"
"Eight-Foot Magatama!"
"Great Buddha Impact!"
"."
As the Laser Cannon fired, many top combatants of the Marine and the World Government simultaneously moved to block those Laser Cannon.
"Boom boom boom!!"
The power of the Laser Cannon on the ordinary steel warships was considerable, but for those top combatants, it didn't pose much of a threat. Any Laser Cannon intercepted by top combatants did not cause much damage to the Marine.
"Bone Fist · Meteor!!"
Garp charged at the front, red lightning flashing on his fist. All his strength converged on his fist, and he punched towards the most terrifying Laser Cannon fired from the Hades.
The immense force of his punch and Busoshoku Haki forcefully pushed the Laser Cannon back dozens of meters, but the Laser Cannon on the Hades was different from the Laser Cannon on the other steel warships. The Laser Cannon fired from the Hades was a continuous output type of attack.
After Garp pushed back the Laser Cannon, the huge recoil from firing the Laser Cannon made the thousand-meter-long Hades retreat dozens of meters.
But Garp's power was only enough to push the Laser Cannon back dozens of meters before losing momentum, while the weapon system on the Hades was still continuously charging and firing the Laser Cannon.
"How is this possible!!!"
Garp's eyes narrowed. He saw that the Laser Cannon that he had pushed back had not extinguished. Instead, it had defeated his power and was continuing to blast towards him.
At this moment, Garp was in the air with nowhere to exert force. Even the speed of Moonwalk could not be faster than the speed of the Laser Cannon, and Garp was directly hit head-on by the Laser Cannon.
"Crack crack crack!!!"
The Laser Cannon, including Garp, shot straight towards the warships protected behind Garp. The Laser Cannon even directly penetrated the foremost warship and, in a straight line spanning thousands of meters, was within the range of the Laser Cannon's bombardment.
Any warship hit by the Laser Cannon was forcefully penetrated completely from bow to stern. The keel of the entire ship was destroyed, and the entire ship was completely scrapped.
Only Garp, who was covered in Busoshoku Haki, was covered in wounds and fell into the Sea, still alive after being hit by this shot. Everyone else near the Laser Cannon was annihilated in this single shot.
Compared to the power of the Laser Cannon, the power of the other Laser Cannon was not so terrifying. Out of hundreds of Laser Cannon, the top combatants only blocked one-tenth.
After the other Laser Cannon hit the warships, no matter how large the warships were, they were directly destroyed in this single shot.
The Limitless Pirates' Laser Cannon appeared officially for the first time in front of everyone. With one firing, they destroyed hundreds of warships. This was simply a natural disaster!
"Ah, help!!"
"Monsters, we can't win at all!"
"It's too terrifying, is this the weapon of the Limitless Pirates?"
"."
Most of the Marine who survived after the warships were destroyed fell into the Sea. Their hearts were filled with fear. This weapon was simply beyond their comprehension!
It can be said that before the war even started, the Limitless Pirates had already intimidated everyone in the World Government. With such terrifyingly powerful weapons, if they were to fire ten or eight more times, their World Government side would be completely annihilated. What's the point of fighting?
"Not bad, not bad at all. This power is worthy of the strength of my ride!"
Nox had no feelings about the other Laser Cannon, but he was very satisfied with the power of the Laser Cannon fired from his ride, the Hades. Perhaps the instantaneous burst power was insufficient, but the continuous output power compensated for this deficiency.
This was still due to various factors such as insufficient energy power and insufficient technology, which reduced the power of the Laser Cannon. Otherwise, if this were the real Pluto's main cannon, Garp would not have survived.
"Immediately send people to rescue everyone who fell into the Sea!"
"All warships, stop sailing immediately!"
"All members above Vice Admiral, immediately come to the front row of the warships and be ready to block the enemy's attack!"
"."
Facing such heavy losses, Sengoku's heart was bleeding. Such heavy losses in just one encounter made him furious, but as a commander, he suppressed his anger and issued the most rational orders.
He didn't know if the enemy could continue to use such terrifying attacks, so he could only temporarily stop the warships from approaching.
"gura rara rara, little ones, keep charging!"
"gura rara rara, children, the Marine are afraid, go!"
"Ugh ro ro ro ro, what terrifying power, Beasts Pirates, charge!"
"."
The Marine were afraid, which was the best motivation for the Pirates. Golden Lion and the others all continued to charge forward!
"All steel warships, turn sideways and attack with side cannons!"
"Non-steel warships, continue to advance and fire immediately upon reaching range!"
Then Nox also issued new orders.
This type of lightning cannon was only equipped on steel warships, and there was only one, which was installed on the main cannon. The side cannons of the steel warships were still conventional explosive cannons, but the power and range of the cannons on the steel warships were much greater than those of ordinary Marine cannons.
So the steel warships didn't need to continue advancing. They just needed to turn their hulls sideways to directly attack with their cannons.
After the thousand-meter-long hull of the Hades turned sideways, there were a total of two hundred and fifty cannons, with an average interval of four meters between cannons. The other steel warships had roughly the same interval.
"Fire!"
"Boom boom boom!!!"
As Nox shouted the order, all the steel warships immediately opened fire. The moment the huge roar sounded, cannonballs filled the sky and flew directly towards the Marine warships.
"Damn it, why is their range so far!"
Sengoku breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the steel warships turning their hulls sideways. This meant that the terrifying Laser Cannon attack from before could not be fired.
Just as Sengoku had guessed, although the Laser Cannon was powerful, it had a fatal flaw, which was excessive energy consumption. It could only be fired once, and then it needed to be recharged. It could only be used again after the energy was full.
But Sengoku didn't expect that the cannons equipped on the steel warships were all the latest and most powerful cannons of the Limitless Pirates. Their range and power were much greater than those equipped on the strongest Marine warships at present.
This meant that the Marine warships couldn't hit the steel warships, but the steel warships could hit the warships.
Countless cannonballs flew in, and the Marine on many warships began to resist, but many cannonballs still landed on the warships.
The cannonballs that didn't land on the warships fell into the Sea. The moment the cannonballs exploded, they stirred up huge waves that shook the warships. Even the Marine who had fallen into the water had not been rescued, and many died under the bombardment of the cannonballs.
"Fire, fire for me!!"
After the second round of bombardment by the steel warships, the warships and other pirate ships reached their range, and both sides launched a fierce cannon battle.
Immediately, the entire Marx Sea fell into an unprecedented large-scale cannon battle.
Both the World Government and the Pirates suffered losses to varying degrees, but the World Government side suffered the greatest losses because the firepower of the Limitless Pirates was too fierce.
With those hundreds of steel warships bombarding from the rear using their ultra-long range and numerous cannons, the Marine suffered heavy losses.
It can be said that the Limitless Pirates accounted for eighty percent of the firepower on the Pirate side, and the combined firepower of the other Pirate Crew was more than five times less than that of the Limitless Pirates.
The current World Government can be said to be completely suppressed by the firepower of the Limitless Pirates, and even the continuous arrival of World Government reinforcements from the rear could not change this fact.
