The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 551 Are you prepared?

The Holy Land of Mary Geoise is unusually noisy today, as it is the day the World Government Conference is being held.

The vigilant Celestial Dragons guarding the area and the patrolling naval officers made it even more imposing than before.

With its beautiful environment and solemn grandeur, Mary Geoise exudes ancient glory and sanctity.

Guided by the CP members, nobles and royalty from all over the world were full of praise.

Even though it wasn't their first time visiting many of the kingdoms, each visit left them deeply impressed.

Moreover, since Hibernius attacked Mary Geoise, the sacred site on the Red Line, twice, its defenses have now been strengthened several times over.

The navy mobilized almost its entire force to protect the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

The purpose, of course, was to guard against the vicious and ruthless Heberfeller family.

After all, at such a crucial and sensitive juncture, no one knows whether the mad Heberfeller family will launch a strong attack.

To cause a major setback to the World Conference would be a disgrace to the entire world.

Fleet Admiral Akainu, along with the three admirals Kizaru, Fujitora, and Green Bull, gathered at a luxurious manor.

They were ordered by the World Government to ensure the safe and smooth convening of this world conference.

Of course, they were located near the central city of Pangaea in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, serving as the core fighting force to be used at will.

Akainu, smoking a large cigar, was in a bad mood, which forced him to slow down his continued high-pressure policy towards the pirates.

Even so, he was dissatisfied but also well aware of the importance of the World Conference, especially given the intelligence available.

The Heberfeller family is very unstable, which is worrying.

Charlotte, that enigmatic guy, no one knows what he's up to.

"Order the Vice Admiral to maintain a high level of vigilance; absolutely no area can be overlooked!"

"yes!"

A naval soldier salutes to relay the order.

As for the defense of the outer perimeter of the Holy Land Mary Geoise, it was naturally handled by the World Government's army.

They are the army that protects the entire Red Line, while the navy's current mission is only the entire Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

The fact that the Kingdom of Heberfeller invaded the Red Earth twice in a row was due to the army's negligence, not the navy's.

At the same time, a thick white sea of clouds, with churning mist, resembled an unknown behemoth moving forward, slowly approaching the Red Earth Continent.

Charlotte's gaze was calm; once this path was chosen, there was no turning back.

Before long, the space fortress appeared at the designated location, but it did not immediately break out of the sea of clouds.

The entire red earth continent was even higher than the gathering sea of clouds, bursting forth into a vast expanse of unavoidable distance.

He is waiting.

Soon, Qiqiya, who was standing next to him, received the report and then looked at Charlotte.

"Your Majesty, the revolutionary army has also arrived at its designated position and is ready to launch an attack at any time."

Listening to Qiqiya's words, Charlotte gripped the hilt of his sword and looked up at the reddish-brown edge of the Red Line continent.

World governments, are you ready for this?!

Then his gaze sharpened, and he spoke in a deep voice.

"Then... let the war begin!"

As soon as Charlotte finished speaking, the Hibernian Empire soldiers, who had been preparing for a long time, began their operation.

"Ahead, firing angle 30 degrees, saturation bombardment!"

"Click, click, click," one heavy cannon after another adjusted its position.

Oars Jr., the user of the Weapon-Weapon Fruit, transformed his body into three super-heavy cannons and launched the first attack.

"Three-wheeled heavy artillery!"

Following closely behind, countless lively rockets poured out.

The army observation post stationed on the Red Earth Continent discovered the unusual churning in the sea of clouds, before they could even react.

Three giant cannonballs appeared, piercing through the sea of clouds, followed closely by a large number of artillery pieces flying through the clouds.

"Damn it, enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

A sharp, terrified scream echoed through the sky, but it was all too late.

"Boom!"

The deafening explosions swept across the sky, and giant mushroom clouds rose into the air.

Large numbers of World Government army soldiers were killed, wiped out in the first round of shelling.

Such a powerful explosion was naturally noticed by the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, located in the heart of the Red Line.

Countless people's expressions changed drastically, knowing that something big had happened, but they were completely unsure of what it was.

Army troops from the vicinity of the Red Earth Continent rushed to the rescue, and a super fortress was revealed in a menacing manner amidst the sea of clouds.

In a short time, the Sky Fortress completely met the edge of the Red Earth Continent.

"Forward, all troops!"

The sound was deafening and booming as Charlotte's longsword pointed directly at Pangu City in the center of the Red Earth Continent.

"Roar~"

A deafening roar resounded as the massive Hibernian Empire army began its operation.

With a thunderous roar, armored vehicles and tanks began to accelerate wildly, hurtling towards the red earth continent.

A ferocious mechanical beast charged out, and a savage giant bird soared through the sky.

Large numbers of Imperial soldiers launched an orderly charge forward.

An unprecedented and massive war has begun, and the world's格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall structure or pattern of the world) will be determined today.

The Heberfeller Empire was like a cruel war machine, slaughtering large numbers of ground troops on the Red Earth.

Their momentum was unstoppable!

"Damn it, call for help!"

The army lieutenant general immediately called the communications officer to send out the intelligence.

Inside the Admiral's temporary office, a Den Den Mushi (snail phone) suddenly rang, and a soldier at the front reported on the battle situation.

Upon receiving the report, Akainu suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with shock.

The mad Heberfeller family actually chose to make their move at this time.

"Order! The entire Navy must engage! We cannot allow the pirates to approach the Holy Land of Mary Geoise!"

Akainu issued the order for Fleet Admiral.

He knew very well that if this place suffered a devastating blow and countries lost their kings, the world would fall into complete chaos.

Then it is very likely that war will sweep across the entire world.

A piercing alarm sounded over the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, and red flashes of light sent shivers down everyone's spines.

"Damn it, what on earth is going on?"

"Who dared to launch an attack on the Holy Land?"

The kings of various countries were shocked and horrified, for such a crazy act had never been seen before.

That force could be so ruthless and so brazen in challenging the world government, which has existed for over 800 years.

Everyone immediately thought of that country.

—The Heberfeller Empire!

Only this empire has the strength and the courage to do this earth-shattering thing.

The chaos continues, and members of the CP organization are quickly calming the restless hearts of the people.

The war horns have already sounded.

The sudden attack plunged the entire Holy Land of Mary Geoise into immense panic.

The Hibernian Empire's army is crushing the World Government's land forces, yet its sheer numbers are unprecedented.

Even when faced with the overwhelming force of the Hibernian Empire's army, they continued to provide support.

Everyone is doing their utmost to carve out a bloody path for the empire's future.

Under the command of the central command room of the fortress, Hariri Door-Door Fruits were continuously activated on the designated battlefields.

Eliminate the enemy's manpower as quickly as possible.

On such a massive battlefield, with a constant stream of soldiers, there is no room for carelessness.

Once trapped in a quagmire of encirclement and isolated without any help, even the most elite knightly order would face annihilation.

At this moment, a large amount of naval support also arrived on the battlefield.

Blood stained the earth red, limbs were scattered everywhere, and deep trenches and craters were still faintly visible.

The brutal battlefield revealed fear even to these seasoned naval officers.

This is the real war!

It was incomparable to any other battle, especially the rapidly moving torrent of steel that inspired a sense of dread.

"Charge in and stop the enemy!"

Lieutenant General Squirrel's face darkened slightly, and he drew his sword from his waist and shouted.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The naval soldiers bravely charged into the battlefield.

"Boom!"

A dazzling yellow laser traversed the battlefield, bursting forth with countless shimmering golden bubbles and unleashing a continuous barrage of explosions.

Sweep across a section of Hibernian Empire armor.

Needless to say, that iconic combat laser is none other than Admiral Kizaru's attack technique.

Kizaru hovered high in the sky, looking down at the furiously roaring mechanical beast below, utterly shocked.

He knew very well that without the support of powerful naval forces, the massive government army would be utterly destroyed.

Human wave tactics are unsustainable against this kind of thing.

With a wave of his hand, the lasers swept wildly towards the Hibernian Empire's legion as if they were free.

"Kizaru, that's so unethical."

A deep sound echoed through the sky, and countless bolts of lightning ripped through the air.

"Boom!"

A frenzied explosion appeared in the air, forming a giant dragon of explosions that stretched across the sky.

Jin looked at Kizaru with displeasure. He had been careless and caused considerable losses, which was really annoying.

"Jing, your Heberfeller family's attack on the Red Line is provoking a real war."

Kizaru didn't mince words, unlike his usual relaxed demeanor; he knew very well that if problems arose again...

He's reached the end of his career as a naval admiral; the last incident at Egg Point Island had already enraged the World Government.

His dissatisfaction grew daily, and naturally he could no longer afford to slack off in the face of such an unprecedented war.

Previously, the Navy would take the initiative to attack, but this time, not only was the Heberfeller Pirates the main force in the attack, but the battlefield was also on the Red Line.

This is a bunch of complete lunatics.

"Hmph, Kizaru, we are enemies, why are you spouting so much nonsense?"

Jhin was extremely dissatisfied with the opponent's sneak attack, and with a wave of his hand, endless lightning surged forth.

The battle between light and electricity is being staged once again.

High in the sky, two beams of light intertwined and moved wildly, constantly unleashing thunderous and dazzling bursts of light.

Jhin's body instantly transformed into elements, becoming a streak of light that swept across the sky as he launched his attack.

Kizaru, on the other hand, transformed into countless golden specks of light and vanished from the spot.

Two streaks of light, like shooting stars, chased each other in the air and collided fiercely.

All that remained were dazzling flashes of light.

The collision of golden light and lightning was quite explosive, with colorful light bands flashing in the air as they moved at high speed.

The two figures kept disappearing and reassembling, in an elemental duel of extreme speed, a sight rarely seen in the world.

This is a speed that surpasses human limits; to outsiders, it appears as if only light is flashing, graceful and elegant.

With a "whoosh," Jin's figure flashed into view in mid-air and pointed out with a finger.

The azure lightning crackled and shot out in an instant.

Kizaru's figure has also reappeared!

With a buzzing vibration, a dazzling cross of light shone from Kizaru's fingertips, radiating a terrifying brilliance as it shot out.

"boom!"

The two attacks collided violently as they rapidly traversed space, producing a buzzing explosion and sending up plumes of smoke.

Two world-renowned humanoid artillery emplacements are firing at full power.

The relentless, saturation-force firepower was extremely shocking.

The dazzling golden light and the blue lightning formed a strikingly contrasting light curtain.

They collided violently high in the air, creating a series of continuous explosions.

The sky changed color under their attacks.

Golden light and lightning shot at each other relentlessly, sharp and powerful.

Flashes of light, explosions, thunder... a frenzy of noises swirled and deafening, echoing in all directions.

The flexible and ever-changing combat style makes it impossible to defend against, leaving viewers dazzled.

The battle between the two devolved into an extreme contest of speed.

The battle reached a stalemate.

Just then...

The sky was filled with crimson lava flames, which streaked across the heavens like meteors, creating an incredibly spectacular scene.

"boom!"

A sky-piercing slash shot out, a crimson expanse of blood, meeting the meteor head-on and unleashing a deafening explosion.

The scalding lava, like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, rushed in all directions and collapsed, creating a magnificent and surging scene.

From afar, it was clearly the powerful strike of the lone red Redfield.

Akainu roared, and flames rose from the super-high temperature molten lava flowing from his body.

"Meteor Volcano!"

The fiery molten balls shot high into the sky with a whooshing sound, preparing for a meteor shower of lava to cleanse the battlefield.

Such destructive power was undoubtedly astonishing; the Qing army's performance in the Battle of Marineford was unexpectedly astonishing.

After reaching a certain height, the meteor shower shooting towards the sky produces a piercing sound as it rubs against the air before plummeting downwards.

A flash of light appeared, and a figure emanating a chilling aura appeared in mid-air.

"Akainu, is he resorting to the same old trick?"

Aokiji appeared, looked at the resolute-faced Sakazuki, and said nothing more.

With a wave of his hand, ice erupted, and a massive wall of ice burst forth from the ground.

"Boom!"

The frenzied collision of ice and fire created endless mist, accompanied by a series of booming explosions.

Akainu's navy coat fluttered in the wind as he glared menacingly at the newcomer.

"Aokiji, you traitor!"

Akainu scoffed at the idea of Aokiji becoming the Ice King of the Hibernian family.

This is a grave insult to the Navy's justice; pirates are unforgivable.

Akainu, who had initially felt guilty, was now completely enraged by the other party's choice.

Aokiji looked at his former colleague Akainu without any inner turmoil and said calmly.

"The world government cannot represent the justice I need!"

Akainu was slightly surprised, then retorted sternly.

"Aokiji, does choosing the pirates mean you've won justice?"

Instead of explaining this, Aokiji spoke up.

"Akainu, you've got one thing wrong. Today, the one fighting the World Government is the Hibernate Empire."

Akainu didn't bother listening to Aokiji's words; he was a ruthless and cold-blooded hawk.

"Aokiji... today I will send you to hell."

Sakazuki's tone was cold, decisive, and domineering, without the slightest wavering in his heart.

His right arm instantly transformed into elemental energy, and the rolling, scorching magma emitted such high temperatures that the space itself became somewhat distorted.

"Lava Fire Dragon!"

With a buzzing vibration, the magma on Sakazuki's arm gathered on his fist and instantly transformed into a giant pillar of fire that spewed out.

Aokiji's expression was as cold as ice. "Then let's try... Akainu!"

"Frost Dragon!"

As Kuzan landed, the ground beneath his feet instantly became covered in frost, and the low-temperature ice spread rapidly.

His fist, covered in a terrifying ice dragon, swung out fiercely.

"boom!"

The two attacks collided, and the violent force spread wildly, causing the surrounding space to distort.

Crimson magma erupted and spread across the ground, emitting a series of sizzling sounds.

Blue ice surged through layers of mist, its biting chill spreading, and the surrounding air seemed to crackle and freeze.

"Again!"

The two figures launched into a frenzied brawl.

A ferocious and brutal battle, a violent clash of titans, a clash of ice and fire, incredibly powerful.

The fierce battle between the two sides unleashed tremendous natural destructive power, leaving the area around their battlefield in utter carnage.

"You haven't made any progress!"

Beneath Akainu's cold and stern face, he roared in a deep voice.

"Akainu is as boastful as ever!"

Aokiji retaliated without hesitation.

The clash between scorching magma and extreme ice transformed their battlefield into a world of stark contrasts of ice and fire.

The interplay of fire and ice constantly produced ear-piercing popping sounds as the two opposing elements fused together.

It made a "thump thump" sound.

The battle between the two monsters was extremely fierce and visually striking.

The sight left everyone stunned; the power to influence nature was truly astonishing.

This is the power of the highest combat force!

"Whoosh~"

A massive meteorite hurtled down from the sky, heading straight for Aokiji.

"boom!"

A loud crash resounded as a giant bird covered in blue flames flew through the air.

The entwined flames transformed into a stream of light, directly withstanding the impact of the falling meteorite with its own body, unleashing a terrifying shockwave.

They withstood the attack head-on.

Absolutely ferocious!

Marco took a breath, flapped his wings and took off, looking warily into the distance.

The blind man wielding a cane-sword is none other than Fujitora, the current Marine Admiral and user of the Gravity-Gravity Fruit.

"Marco, the Undying King"

Fujitora spoke calmly, gripping his cane-sword, his closed eyes clearly sensing everything happening around him.

Marco's colors are extremely prominent in his Observation Haki world.

"You're too late, Fujitora!"

Akainu couldn't help but speak up. This guy always acted recklessly, giving Akainu a real headache.

Fujitora showed no anger at Akainu's tone, but felt a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex feeling of mixed emotions, often including nostalgia or regret).

The Hibernian Empire is indeed growing stronger and stronger.

"Don't hold back, let's take them all down together." Sakazuki said in a deep voice, and once again engaged in fierce combat with Aokiji.

"That's really irritable!"

That being said, Fujitora's movements were by no means slow.

"Gravity Blade - Fierce Tiger!"

Fujitora gripped the sword in a reverse grip and swung it out with lightning speed.

A deep purple light spread out, a violent aura surged forth, a powerful pressure swept in all directions, and endless gravity pressed down on heaven and earth.

"Navy, you're really strong!"

Blue flames flickered and burst forth, revealing the figure of Marco the Phoenix.

A fiery feather pierced the sky, stirring up the winds and clouds, and sending up bursts of fine blue ghost flames.

A violent explosion shook the void.

Just then, a soft sound echoed across the battlefield.

"So solemn and abhorrent!"

On the distant horizon, a massive number of vines broke through the ground, and in the blink of an eye, a huge green tree-man appeared.

The ground was being covered by greenery at a visible speed, spreading far into the distance of the battlefield.

Even the mighty steel chariots of the Heberfeller Empire were slowed down.

The expanding green plants simultaneously sprouted vines from the ground, trapping the moving chariots and transforming them into vibrant potted plants, a truly eye-catching sight.

Another admiral-level powerhouse has joined the battle.

The surrounding navy and army of the World Government cheered excitedly.

"It's General Green Bull!"

A colossal tree-like body stood tall between heaven and earth, overlooking everyone on the battlefield.

Its red eyes resemble those of a wild beast, its hands are planted in the ground like pillars supporting the sky, and thick, dense vines roam wildly. The surrounding area is full of vitality, yet it hides a terrifying killing intent.

"Admiral Green Bull, user of the Logia-type Mori-Mori Fruit."

Beta spoke casually, his eyes fixed intently on the guy whose half-body was rooted to the ground.

This scene is really a bit oppressive!

The moment Green Bull swung his arms, endless vines burst forth from the ground like thorns, covering the battlefield.

Beta leaped into the air, transforming into an ancient behemoth. The raging golden giant ape shattered everything in its path and soared into the sky.

Two figures engaged in a fierce battle on the ground.

The green bull's body emanated an extremely rich and powerful vitality.

Numerous branches covered in Armament Haki soared into the air, and rows of iron spears appeared, so densely packed that it made one's scalp tingle!

It sprayed wildly at Beta.

Beta, in its behemoth form, roared and howled, unleashing a violent aura.

When the beast opened its mouth, its roar transformed into the most terrifying sound waves, shattering layer upon layer of the cascading attacks.

"The King of Beasts truly lives up to his name!"

Green Bull's majestic voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth. Before him stood a ferocious behemoth, the King of Beasts of the Hibernian family, whose strength was terrifyingly extraordinary.

"What's wrong, Admiral Green Bull? Are you scared?"

Beta laughed loudly, his attitude extremely arrogant.

"Hmph, Beta, the King of Beasts, is nothing special."

Not to be outdone, Green Bull retaliated.

The tree and the beast launched a frontal charge.

On the main battlefield, the Navy's four top combat forces were completely tied down by the four kings of the Heberfeller family.

They were no longer able to interfere with the battles on other battlefields.

Its formidable strength inspires awe and fear; this is the power of the world's number one superpower.

This is the first empire in history.

It should be noted that the Hibernian family has many more experts, and the elite knights have not yet made a move.

This is so shocking.

Even the resolute, decisive, and cold-blooded Akainu felt a heaviness in his heart.
