Simultaneous travel: The group is about to be wiped out

Chapter 156 If you're not satisfied, then let's start a war (making up for what I owed before)

One day later, on the back mountain of Ruihaite Island.

Chen Feng sat cross-legged on the ground, slowly exhaling, his brows furrowed.

The improvement brought by this Impure World Reincarnation exceeded my expectations. This technique summons the dead, bringing their souls from the impure world. Moreover, the dead are immortal and their injuries will automatically heal.

In the Naruto world, the recovery of the deceased's injuries and the consumption of their chakra do not consume the user's chakra; otherwise, Kabuto would have been drained of it long ago.

It must be admitted that the Second Hokage, who created this technique, was indeed a genius.

However, perhaps due to the different rules of the world, the limitations of this ability are much greater in the world of One Piece.

The most significant factor is energy consumption. The energy required to use this technique far exceeds expectations. Even with Chen Feng sharing his energy and significantly increasing his power, surpassing even the strongest experts of the same level, he still couldn't withstand such consumption.

It seems unrealistic to expect resurrected characters to exist for an extended period of time, and it's only truly cost-effective to use them in large-scale battles.

Come to think of it, this forbidden technique is inherently unreasonable. If it consumes very little energy and allows the resurrected person to exist for a long time, wouldn't that be no different from a resurrection technique like Reincarnation?
Just as Chen Feng was deep in thought, something suddenly happened in the distance, and a piercing sound rang out.

This is a unique defensive alarm system on Reheit Island. Whenever an enemy attacks, the guards will immediately sound the alarm.

Chen Feng didn't care too much about this. These days, there have been some arrogant pirates who want to test whether his bounty is real or not, hoping to defeat him and become famous overnight.

But he didn't even need to lift a finger; Jin Han alone was enough to destroy the visiting pirate ships and kill everyone on board.

But this time, things were a little different...

Just as Chen Feng was about to continue pondering, the Den Den Mushi suddenly rang. After answering, Jin Han's somewhat heavy voice came through.

"Boss, this is serious. A big guy has arrived. The Red-Haired Pirates, one of the Four Emperors' pirate crews, are heading straight for us without any prior notice. They're probably up to no good."

Chen Feng gave a soft "hmm" to indicate that he understood, then stood up, picked up the white robe beside him, put it on, and responded indifferently.

"Okay, I understand, I'll be there right away."

To be honest, Chen Feng's visit to Shanks was both unexpected and reasonable. Normally, the first Yonko-level pirate crew to come and attack him would be Big Mom or Blackbeard.

The old woman and he already had a grudge against each other, and Blackbeard would definitely be tempted by his abilities; both of them had motives.

However, Shanks' arrival is not without reason. After all, the newspaper reports said that he summoned the dead to fight, and one of the dead was Roger, the former captain of Shanks' pirate crew.

Unlike some illogical novels where someone summons the dead to fight, and the dead's relatives and friends see this and think, "Oh, this can make up for my regrets," they are deeply moved and become completely loyal to that person from then on.

Logically speaking, it would be absurd to see one's close friends, relatives, and respected teachers and elders not finding peace even after death, but being summoned to fight.

In this situation, if one truly values ​​emotions, there's no doubt that they would immediately kill the guy who summoned the dead to fight.

Chen Feng didn't consider himself a gentleman, but he wasn't a villain either. The Impure World Reincarnation technique was indeed immoral, and he wouldn't use it lightly.

But I'm not the kind of saint who thinks I don't need something, but I must be able to use it. Having something and not using it are two different things.

Moreover, since such a technique has been used, the consequences and impacts will naturally be acknowledged. There's no need to grandly claim that it's for the purpose of overthrowing the world government, for the greater good, or for the sake of the entire world.

If Shanks isn't coming, fine. But since he is, let's just have a fight. Chen Feng had already prepared for what might happen after casting this spell.

With that thought in mind, he immediately stopped hesitating, white flames erupted around him, and he leaped into the air, transforming into a beam of white light as he headed towards the front of Ruihait Island.

Ruihaite Island, port city walls.

The elite national defense forces have all arrived here, anxiously watching the scene ahead.

Queen Jona, dressed in a shimmering blue gown and wearing a magnificent crown, stood on the city wall, glancing at Jin Han beside her. Her eyes flickered slightly, and she asked softly:
"Has Lord Chen Feng not arrived yet?"

Because of the outbreak of war, the entire royal family had died, leaving only her.

After Chen Feng arrived, he helped Qiao Na ascend the throne and then guarded it for a period of time before his throne was completely secured.

She also understands that everything she and the country have achieved today is because of him, so she is absolutely loyal to Chen Feng and has no ulterior motives.

Jin Han reached out and touched the famous sword Orochi in his hand, as if looking at his beloved woman. Upon hearing this, he finally raised his head and glanced into the distance.

"Oh, here it comes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a white light streaked across the distance, cutting through the sky with a sharp, piercing sound.

Whoosh! ! !
In the blink of an eye, white light fell, white flames surrounded him, revealing Chen Feng's figure.

Upon seeing Chen Feng arrive, Jona breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of joy flashing in her eyes. She said, "Lord Chen Feng, according to intelligence from the front, the Red-Haired Pirates are heading straight for us. They are about to approach the first defensive island, and they seem to have ill intentions. What should we do?"

"We should wait for them to arrive, then we can use the terrain to defend ourselves."

Chen Feng shook his head, a slight smile appearing on his lips, and said calmly, "No need. Defending here would cause great damage to the surrounding area if a battle broke out. What you need to do now is maintain order. I'll take care of the rest."

After saying this, he turned to look at Jin Han beside him: "Is the boat ready?"

Jin Han sheathed his longsword, pointed to the harbor, where a large ship was docked: "Okay, boss, this ship was built a long time ago. I just had someone check it, and everything is fine. Its performance is top-notch."

Seeing this, Chen Feng didn't delay any longer and headed towards the ship with Jin Han.

Watching the two figures walk away, Qiao Na bowed slightly: "Lord Chen Feng, please be careful."

After boarding the ship, Chen Feng reached out and stroked the hull. A trace of emotion flashed in his eyes. He never expected that he would end up like this. It really proved that saying.

In the world of One Piece, what would you do if you weren't a pirate?
The flag slowly rose, its design featuring a white skull at its center, surrounded by white flames.

The pirate ship changed direction and headed towards the open sea.

I don't know how long we sailed, but the islands behind us gradually faded and then disappeared from sight.

A large ship appeared in the distance, flying a black flag with a skull and crossbones, and two swords embedded in it, with a red stripe draped over the skull. It was none other than the Red-Haired Pirates, one of the Four Emperors.

Ahead of this ship were several other warships, the defensive fleet of the Kingdom of Rehaite, but they were far inferior to the Red-Haired Pirates in terms of momentum, hesitating and retreating, not daring to make a move easily.

Seeing this, Chen Feng waved his hand gently and said, "Let those kingdoms' fleets retreat. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices. Leave this place!"

Upon hearing the order, the messenger beside him immediately responded in a low voice and then relayed the order.

At this moment, Ruoke, the captain of the five warships of the Kingdom of Ruihait, received the intelligence and breathed a sigh of relief. His forehead was already covered with sweat after just one standoff.

The warships then immediately changed course and sped away from the area.

This action naturally attracted the attention of the Red-Haired Pirates.

Lucky took a bite of the huge chicken leg in his hand and mumbled, "Oh, judging from this, it seems their main force is about to appear. A 5.5 billion bounty pirate is going to be very troublesome!"

First mate Beckman, who was standing to the side, took a drag of his cigarette, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Hey, Redhead, have you thought this through? Are you ready to go to war with this guy?"

The redhead, no longer the playful man he once was, stared seriously ahead. Hearing Beckman's words, he sighed and replied, "Actually, I could ignore this, but I can't. It's not about starting a war, but at least I need to understand what's going on. I need them to give me an explanation."

“If I were to remain indifferent to something like this, I would truly be letting myself down, wouldn’t you say, Marco?”

Surprisingly, Marco was also on the Red-Haired Pirates' ship at that moment. He originally wanted to find Chen Feng to ask him some questions, but he happened to run into Shanks on the way.

After further discussion, they discovered they shared the same goal, so they decided to travel together.

Marco took a deep breath, nodded, and said solemnly, "If someone abused the power of Old Man and Ace without permission, forcing them to do things they didn't want to do, then I will never forgive that guy. Right now, I really want to understand what exactly happened!"

With his exceptional perception and eyesight, Yasopp suddenly raised his head, looked at the sea ahead, and said, "They're here, showing no sign of backing down, heading straight for us! As expected of the new Emperor of the Sea, their aura is truly extraordinary."

Upon hearing this, everyone on the ship immediately raised their heads and looked into the distance.

A large ship came toward them, its flag bearing a flaming skull and crossbones.

Rakiro swallowed the last bite of chicken leg, patted his fat belly, and got ready: "Boss, we need to be more careful this time. The other side is no small fry. We had a party with them just over ten days ago, and now we're facing them with swords. This is really interesting."

Time passed, and at this moment, the sea was silent, with only the gentle sound of the sea breeze and the sound of the waves.

On a distant island, a white-haired member of the World News Agency stared in shock at the photograph his subordinate had just taken—it was of the Red-Haired Pirates.

"You mean the Red-Haired Pirates headed towards the White Flame Pirates' territory!?"

The subordinate beside him quickly nodded: "That's right, boss. I didn't dare to delay after taking the photos, so I came to find you right away."

The clash between the old and new Great Sea Emperors is top-tier news, especially since one of them is none other than the much-discussed 5.5 billion bounty pirate.

Thinking of this, the white-haired member's eyes shone with excitement, and he immediately ordered, "Quickly, prepare the ship, I'm going to gather the first wave of intelligence."

Seeing this, his subordinate hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Boss, this won't do! Once the two great pirate crews clash, the aftershocks of their battle will be something we can't withstand. A slight mistake and we'll lose our lives. You must think twice!"

Faced with the dissuasion, the member snorted and said loudly with righteous indignation: "The president has always told us that if you want to get really exciting news, you have to risk your life."

"With this intelligence, I'm sure I'll be highly valued by the president. Enough said, quick, prepare the ship!!"

He could already imagine that once he obtained this intelligence, his status in the news agency would skyrocket, and then he would have everything he needed.

…………

On the high seas in front of the Kingdom of Rihait.

Two large ships approached each other, and a powerful sense of oppression permeated the entire area.

The clash between the old and new maritime emperors is about to erupt.

At this distance, both sides can clearly see each other's faces.

Looking at Chen Feng's face, the red-haired man narrowed his eyes slightly. Without the slightest hesitation, he drew his long sword and pulled out the Griffin from his hand, the sound echoing across the sea.

"I have only one purpose in coming here: to find out what really happened. Although Captain Roger told me that everyone has their own adventures and that I should not easily interfere but respect other people's choices, I don't care about anything else."

"But I simply cannot tolerate it. How could you possibly control Captain Roger, whom I have always revered, and make him fight for you?! Now, give me an explanation, Chen Feng!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the red-haired man opened his eyes, and an extremely powerful Conqueror's Haki erupted from his body. Faint black and purple lightning appeared, and a powerful sense of oppression moved toward the large ship in front of him.

The impact caused waves to rise on the sea, with wind and waves rolling and powerful air currents sweeping outwards.

Seeing this, Marco, who was standing nearby, also spoke up and asked, "And what's going on with Dad and Ace? Give us an explanation!"

Facing the imposing red-haired man who came out with an overwhelming aura, Chen Feng showed no mercy. He unleashed the full power of his Eye of All Things and suddenly activated his Conqueror's Haki, sending an extreme pressure surging forward.

The surrounding space was faintly tinged with white flame patterns, emanating an unparalleled sense of awe.

Instantly, the two powerful Conqueror's Haki clashed together, tearing and colliding with each other.

The entire space became unstable as two invisible forces collided violently in the void! In an instant, the air seemed to solidify into a tangible wall, then suddenly collapsed and twisted inward, emitting a deep, thunderous roar.

In the field of vision, strange ripples appeared in the space, like the surface of a lake where a giant rock has been thrown in. Streaks of black, fine, spider web-like lightning burst, leaped, and hissed out of thin air at the point of impact!
The powerful shockwave spread outwards, lifting the sleeves of everyone present.

Chen Feng's calm voice rang out in the environment: "There's nothing to say about your question. I admit that I did summon the dead to fight for me at that moment. But I can tell you one thing: Roger has the ability to break free from my Impure World Reincarnation. In other words, his actions were influenced by his own will and were not entirely coerced by me."

"That's all I have to say. If you're still not convinced, then let's start a war!!"

Towards the end, his tone hardened, and his momentum surged once more…
