The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 552 Paving the Way for the King

The chaotic battlefield was a scene of endless fighting among hundreds of thousands of people. The wind that swept across the devastated, blood-stained land stirred up gusts of sand.

The Red Earth, a sacred land that had been peaceful for 800 years, has witnessed its bloodiest war of slaughter.

The government army, which was initially in a state of decline, managed to maintain the momentum of the rapidly collapsing battlefield thanks to strong support from the navy.

This caused the advance of the Hibernian Empire's army to slow down.

At this moment, the vice admirals of each naval headquarters launched a charge.

"We must never allow the enemy to invade the Holy Land of Mary Geoise."

Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel roared and led his troops into the battlefield, destroying dozens of steel tanks.

Before they could even feel happy, they were attacked by dozens of dazzling lasers from afar.

"Boom!"

The explosion roared, dust billowed, and the dark earth spoke of the astonishing attack that had just taken place.

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey..."

Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel, his face covered in dust from the explosion, glanced around at the many naval soldiers with severed limbs and bodies, and felt a surge of rage.

Upon closer inspection, his pupils contracted slightly; it was the weapon of war of the Heberfeller family, the Dawnist.

The latest third-generation Dawnists are far more ferocious in terms of both firepower and oppressive presence than their predecessors.

The reason why pacifists have not joined the fight is entirely due to the unresolved issue of authority.

They could only remain in the Heberfeller Empire as guards.

The flying squirrel knew very well that it had to deal with the formidable Dawnists.

The shave was activated instantly, and he charged directly towards the position of the Dawnists, with powerful officers following behind him.

As soon as it approached the attack position, the flying squirrel brandished its longsword, and dozens of wind slashes flashing blue light shot out.

"Your enemy is me!"

Sicaberelli transformed into an Ancient One and directly attacked.

How could he, as the commander of the Dawn Legion, possibly allow the enemy to get close?

With its beak open, the bird unleashed a barrage of violent sonic projectiles.

"Boom!"

An explosion rang out nearby. The flying squirrel's face darkened; the Hibernian family's executives were all extremely difficult to deal with.

Even as a lieutenant general, he would find it difficult to achieve victory in a short period of time.

A male lieutenant general wearing a tall hat arrived swiftly, maintaining a sword-drawing motion as he advanced.

This clearly shows that he is a master swordsman.

The newcomer was none other than the Navy's newly promoted monster vice admiral, Bogart.

He drew his sword from his waist with lightning speed, his voice ethereal.

"One-Sword Style: Destructive Dragon Slash!"

The purple slashing wind instantly enveloped the heavens and earth, sweeping away everything in its path with unstoppable force.

The immense pressure instilled fear, but then a similarly powerful slash swept across the void and crashed down upon them.

"boom!"

A muffled, thunderous explosion rang out.

Dasok appeared on the battlefield and intercepted this extraordinary attack.

As always, his somewhat expressionless face showed no other emotion whatsoever.

The two of them had a strangely similar expression.

"War!"

The swordsmen's direct tone revealed their strong confidence.

Two towering slashes tore through the air, cleaved the ground, and collided again, producing a deafening explosion.

Dasok's expression changed slightly. His opponent possessed the strength of a great swordsman, a level he had been striving for.

His figure flashed, as nimble as a bird in flight.

"One-Sword Style: Triple Light Slash!"

In an instant, three inverted triangles of blade light flashed in the void, deadly and dazzling, arriving in front of the opponent in a flash.

Bogart swung his sword repeatedly, unleashing a series of nimble slashes to deflect the attacks.

"Snap!"

The shattered aftershocks of the strikes scattered in all directions, surging outwards in every direction.

Ravines appeared in an instant.

Dasok's expression was solemn. This would be his most intense battle yet. The person opposite him was ridiculously strong, far superior to even a seasoned swordsman.

They quickly found themselves in a fierce battle.

The vast red earth continent has become the most brutal battlefield, where passionate and intense battles can erupt at any time.

The battle was intense and fierce, like a giant meat grinder, with countless lives disappearing on this battlefield every moment.

Both sides fought with the determination to die, and neither side retreated a single step.

Thump! Thump! Thump...

A series of crisp and steady footsteps echoed across the battlefield.

A gentle breeze swept across the land, and amidst the swirling sand, special legions marched onto the battlefield.

The navy's pupils contracted as the renowned knightly order of the Heberfeller family entered the battlefield.

This also shows that the all-out war has fully begun, and the Heberfeller Empire is going all out.

They are about to begin their fearless charge.

To pave a bloody road for the king to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

"Bang bang bang..."

On the battlefield where musket bullets flew constantly, Chizo's long sword moved with remarkable agility.

The steel bullets he was shooting at seemed incredibly slow.

Sparks flew, and a pleasant sound rang out as the blade flashed.

"Crack..."

Hundreds of steel bullets were easily sliced ​​in two by his blade, his movements swift, fluid, and incredibly graceful.

The wind, carrying the stench of blood, whipped his clothes around.

Chizō stared straight ahead, his long sword pointing directly at the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

He shouted loudly as the naval soldiers in front of him bravely tried to stop him.

"The Knights of the Sword, vanguard of the king..."

"Forward!"

"Roar~"

Following behind, the Sword Knights roared in unison, brandishing their longswords as they charged towards the navy.

Vice Admiral Doberman, a tough-looking man with a scarred face, is known for his fearless courage.

Faced with the powerful charge of the Sword Knights, Vice Admiral Doberman did not hesitate or show any fear, and drew his katana from his waist.

"For the sake of the Navy's justice, brave soldiers, do everything in your power to annihilate the invading enemy."

The excited naval soldiers raised their weapons and charged towards the Knights of the Sword with fervor and ferocity.

The naval vice admirals, each with their own distinct personality, naturally had subordinates who behaved differently.

"How could we be stopped?"

Chizō's attacks were sharp and decisive. As Charlotte's first retainer, he firmly believed that Hippefeller Charlotte was the true king of this world.

"Enough with the boasting, Chizo, the Sword Disciple. You'll have to step over my dead body to get past me!"

Doberman's strong stance was commendable.

The two sides immediately engaged in the fiercest clash.

The reality, however, is cruel. Faced with the formidable Chizuru, it is clear that Doberman's strength is insufficient, and he can only barely stop him.

Then several more powerful Navy Headquarters Vice Admirals arrived to provide support.

Amidst the flames of war, the most primal and brutal battles are unfolding.

Komainu-maru swung his naginata and slashed out fiercely, the blow splitting the ground as he charged toward the Marines.

Vice Admiral Doro, with his full head of purple hair, stepped forward and slashed out with his saber to intercept the attack.

The two sides then engaged in battle.

Vice Admiral Doro leaped into the air and slashed at Komainu-maru with tremendous force, completely disregarding the lives of the nearby marines.

The other party's madness and cold-bloodedness are even greater than those of pirates.

"Clang!"

A pleasant thud rang out, a strong wind swept around them, and the two were immediately engaged in fierce combat.

"Pfft~"

With a soft sound, slender, jade-like fingers, sharp as a wild beast's claws, pierced directly through the body of a naval rear admiral.

The moment the hand was pulled out, the woman elegantly flicked away the bloodstains, as if it were a trivial matter.

Behind her was a group of female members; the members of the Beast Girl Knights appeared charming and alluring, but they were roses with thorns.

"Everyone, give it your all to wipe out the navy blocking our way!"

Sammy's crimson lips moved slightly, exuding an indescribable sensuality, yet her tone carried a chilling undertone.

The women of the Beast Girl Knights were almost all born slaves, but with the help of the Hibernian family, they escaped their tragic fate.

Fate made them members of a powerful knightly order, so the king's will is their will.

Where the king goes, the heart follows!

When the beast girl knights go berserk, their destructive power is no less than that of the others.

"Damn pirates!"

With an angry roar, Dalmesia, in her human-beast form, charged toward Same at high speed.

The two figures turned into afterimages and engaged in a fierce battle.

With mastery of the Six Powers of the Navy and Armament Haki, Dalmesia's strength grows ever more formidable with the powerful enhancement of his Zoan-type Devil Fruit.

However, they could only passively defend against Sam's attacks.

A large cloud of mist appeared, and Smoker, a Logia-type Devil Fruit user with a large cigar in his mouth, also joined the battle.

The two barely managed to engage Sammy in battle.

Nearby naval officers also swarmed around to counter the charge of the Beast Girl Knights.

A fiery yellow phantom flashed across the sky; the reinforcement was none other than Koji, whose Bird-Bird Fruit was Mythical Zoan type and whose form was Nue.

The piercing cry was like the whisper of a demon from hell, instantly extinguishing the life force of hundreds of naval soldiers.

As the fire blazed in the mountains, Jiang Yuebu ascended into the air, his katana instantly drawn from its sheath, intercepting Huci's bizarre attack.

"Boom!"

The earth trembled, rocks jolted, and a dark shadow fell down.

Its massive size, exaggerated weapons, and ferocious posture caused it to haphazardly barge into the entire battlefield.

That's right, it was the powerful Giant Knights.

Wielding weapons several meters long haphazardly, clad in heavy, specially made battle armor, each strike shook the earth, displaying unparalleled power.

A large number of World Government soldiers aimed their artillery and opened fire.

The sounds of explosions were deafening, but the outdated, ordinary shells were completely ineffective at penetrating the armor.

A deafening roar shook the clouds.

"The Giant Knights, forge a bloody path for the king."

"Forward!"

Under the leadership of their commander, the raging giants charged forward, fighting fiercely.

The CP organization secretly trained a large number of experts who rushed towards the Giant Knights, preparing to intercept their unstoppable charge.

Unfortunately, many members of the CP organization suffered heavy losses.

The battle grew increasingly fierce, with powerful figures from both sides suffering increasingly violent and desperate fates.

They are determined to completely annihilate one side in this battle before they will stop.

At low altitudes, Bob, in his insect-beast form, is particularly troublesome due to his powerful and massive body and agile maneuverability.

The golden horns on his head continuously emitted dazzling orbs of destructive light, bombarding areas with large numbers of navy personnel.

Vice Admiral Storoberry, with his long beard, remained expressionless.

He immediately activated the Shave skill, moving at high speed into the air, and thrusting his longsword horizontally in mid-air, instantly annihilating the attack.

"The Hibernator family is incredibly troublesome!"

Even the composed Strawberry couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

The strength of the Heberfeller family is truly outrageous; and this is not even their full strength.

After exchanging a glance, the two launched an attack in an instant.

A colossal dragon roared in the sky, unleashing a torrent of fire that engulfed vast battle zones, its destructive power astounding.

Behind them, a vast expanse of flying mounts stretched out, blotting out the sky.

On its back were members of the Holy Lance Knights.

Under the sunlight, the silver sniper rifle gleamed with a cold light.

Bullets covered in Armament Haki rained down, sniping and killing large numbers of Navy personnel.

Wink pushed up his glasses; even the mighty knight orders could only advance with difficulty.

The World Government's military strength is beyond imagination, especially its massively cloned army.

Their fearless and frenzied charges constantly used their flesh and blood to block the advance.

"Ten times faster!"

A loud gunshot rang out, the bullet vibrating the void the moment it left the ground, its high speed making it streak across the night sky like a fleeting meteor.

"Pfft~"

A headshot in an instant claimed the life of a naval vice admiral—ruthless and swift.

Wenk's pupils contracted, and he leaped down.

At the same time, with a "thud," her mount was blown apart, its head exploding and falling limply to the ground.

Wenk gracefully landed on the ground from mid-air and looked ahead to see a short, short-haired woman wearing a felt hat.

The two, one large and one small, warily watched each other on the battlefield.

"Who are you?"

Wenk spoke cautiously, sensing that the other person was quite unusual.

"Mortal, before you stands a member of the great Mamaye family..."

"My name is—Mamayeya Palace~"

The arrogant and haughty voice sounded quite conceited.

Wink naturally knew the other party's background: an elite among the Celestial Dragons.

The Celestial Dragons have a custom of referring to themselves as "Saint" and women as "Palace." Combined with the other person's tone, the answer is obvious.

The Celestial Dragons!

What a surprise!

There are quite a few powerful individuals among the Celestial Dragons, who are seen as hopeless by outsiders.

The accumulation of 800 years is indeed not to be underestimated.

The tension was palpable between the two sides when, in the next instant, they began to run at high speed across the battlefield.

"Bang bang bang!"

Bullets shot out wildly and swiftly, creating a series of terrifying explosions.

This is a battle between two exceptionally skilled snipers.

The sudden downfall of the Celestial Dragon elites was somewhat unexpected.

Clearly, reinforcements from the world government are continuously arriving.

For the elite Celestial Dragons who have always maintained their status and aloofness.

This battle was more like a hunting party, where one could unleash their inner desire to kill without restraint.

Eric the Scythe Man, his hands held at his waist, forming the shape of two guns.

"Scythe Bullet!"

The high-speed scythe-like slashes, enhanced by the power of the amplification, transformed into astonishing beams of light that pierced through the air.

"Boom boom boom!"

The enemy was bombarded with a constant barrage of explosions.

Lieutenant General Keisha, bespectacled and smoking a cigar, smoothly drew his sword and intercepted the rampaging scythe-like bullets.

The battlefield was a scene of utter chaos, with death repeating itself every single second.

Despite the exceptional and formidable strength of the Hibernian family's executives, they were still held back by the enemy.

It is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to remain undecided in a very short period of time.

No matter what, this is the Holy Land Mary Geoise, the headquarters of the World Government.

The enemy's core strength was insufficient, but its numbers were enormous and its powerful warriors were numerous, making the Heberfeller Empire extremely difficult to deal with.

The Five Elders and the Knights of God, among others, have not yet participated.

Of course, the Heberfeller Empire doesn't need to worry about the Knights of God.

The Hibernian Empire was under immense pressure, as was the World Government.

This powerful pirate crew completely surpassed the Rocks and Roger pirate crews.

The first force in 800 years to launch a full-scale invasion of the Red Line and wage a direct war against the World Government.

The distant holy land of Mary Geoise filled nobles from all nations with dread.

The earth-shattering explosion, and the terrifying and oppressive overwhelming power.

It instills boundless fear in people.

"This is insane!"

The Hibernian Empire possesses a large number of united and powerful legions. Can it really defeat the world government that has been high above for 800 years?

Where will they go from here?

Will the Heberfeller Empire also carry out a major purge against them?

The thought of this made me break out in a cold sweat.

At that moment, everything happening on the battlefield was also broadcast live to the world!

Such a crazy act drove the world completely mad.

"The Hibernian Empire...this is going to destroy the world!"

No one knew how to describe their feelings at that moment, including the non-member states and other forces oppressed by the World Government.

Everyone looked excited.

They lacked the courage to resist the oppression of the colossal world government, and today they are witnessing history.

One that could rewrite the history of the pirate world.

As the elite forces of the Heberfeller Empire advanced with frenzied speed, the Holy Land of Mary Geoise drew ever closer.

But the resistance they encountered also grew stronger.

"Damn it! Dragging this out is going to be very disadvantageous."

Mitis looked unwell.

The longer it drags on, the worse it will be. It's still unclear how many options the world government has left.

In the current situation, large-scale legions from both sides are entangled in a fierce battle.

Those powerful and destructive weapons cannot be used easily.

Mitis slowly straightened his body.

He held a book in his left hand, a rapier hanging at his waist, and had a solemn expression.

Behind him.

One by one, the members of the Fanatical Knights slowly straightened up, the special armbands on each person's right shoulder shining brightly.

Everyone's eyes lit up with fervor; they were the most fanatical believers in the entire Heberfeller Empire.

With unwavering and sublime faith, he is a staunch supporter of the entire Ideal Land and Charlotte's most devout follower.

It is also the first powerful knightly order in the entire Heberfeller Empire to possess special significance.

Mitis looked at the five thousand members of the Fanatical Knights, his heart filled with pride.

This is the embodiment of the will of the Heberfeller Empire, and the great inheritance of the glorious will of the "King".

Metis drew his longsword from his waist and spoke in a deep voice.

"All members of the Fanatic Knights..."

"For the glory of the Heberfeller family, for the splendor of the Heberfeller Empire, for the pious truth of the ideal land, for the will of the King..."

"For this future, let us offer our hearts!"

In the midst of his impassioned outburst, Mitis struck his chest with his right arm!

"Roar~"

"Roar~"

"Roar~"

The members of the Fanatical Knights moved in unison, just like Mitis striking his chest with one hand.

A powerful aura arose spontaneously, unleashing a deafening roar that released the intense and passionate emotions within.

"Our King is with us, in glory and honor!"

"Forward!"

With a shout, Mitis pointed his rapier straight ahead.

The Fanatical Knights merged into one, charging towards the enemy like a tidal wave.

The Fanatical Knights possess extraordinary and terrifying combat power and an unyielding will.

A milky-white aura appeared on the bodies of the entire Fanatical Knights, and their fanatical spirit was blessed and guided by the gods, which was incredibly miraculous.

An incomprehensible spiritual power emerged, something only legions with such a special faith as the Fanatical Knights could accomplish in the entire empire.

This power is a unique power system of the Fanatic Knights, unlike any other power in the world.

All enemies who tried to resist were crushed and mercilessly harvested like weeds, advancing with unstoppable momentum.

The fanatical knights on the battlefield exuded a ferocious killing aura, like a monstrous beast, tirelessly slaughtering all enemies.

Under Mitis's leadership, morale was high, their attacks were perfectly synchronized, and every strike was incredibly powerful.

They easily tore apart large armies, as if they were in an empty field, their ferocity astonishing.

Blood was spilled, iron will was worn away, and the enemy became the dead souls beneath the feet of the Fanatical Knights.

Blood forged the highest glory of the Fanatic Knights, and bones paved the way for their advancement.

The scene was incredibly impressive.

Looking at Hariri, who was enraged by the fanatical knights, a cruel smile appeared on his lips.

Those arrogant and wicked Celestial Dragons should relinquish their position as rulers of the world.

With a wave of his hand, a spatial gate rose from the ground behind him.

Squads of soldiers in black uniforms, with unique skull and wing badges on their chests that gleamed with a cold light, looked quite ferocious and terrifying.

The indifferent members of the Skeleton Knights marched slowly and orderly onto the battlefield.

The nearby sailors cried out in alarm.

"Damn it, those brutal and ruthless skeleton knights."

The Skeleton Knights are infamous for their brutality, a reputation that is notorious on the high seas.

No enemy who fell into their hands would be spared; even the wounded and prisoners would be executed on the spot.

No one wants to fight them; they are a group of violent and bloodthirsty lunatics.

"How did they end up here?"

Vice Admiral Onigumo's pupils constricted upon seeing this scene.

This troublesome and insane knightly order is the most madman in the entire Hibernian Empire.

Hariri shouted loudly!

"Skeleton Knights, be wrathful!"

"Skeleton Knights, roar!"

"Skeleton Knights, fight!"

"Praise the king's greatness, wield your sword to pave the way for him!"

"Forward!"

With their longswords pointed, the silent Skeleton Knights launched a death charge that terrified the world.

With an indomitable spirit, they continued their relentless charge despite being bombarded by artillery fire.

Faced with such frenzied humans, the courage of many naval soldiers to hold their ground was instantly shattered.

As the fleeing navy surged forth, Vice Admiral Onigumo disregarded everything else, ruthlessly slaughtering the navy members attempting to escape, and tenaciously maintaining the battle line.

Hariri leaped forward, wielding his specially crafted battle sword and unleashing a powerful wave of attack energy.

The soldiers who blocked their way were all torn to pieces.

Blood stained everything around, making it look incredibly horrifying.

Vice Admiral Onigumo took a step forward, his battle sword slashing horizontally, unleashing astonishing power.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, Onigumo's body only paused for a moment before being sent flying backward.

The female lieutenant general's figure arrived with a swift movement, her snow-white thighs adorned with a conspicuous spider tattoo, making her identity immediately clear.

It was none other than the monster female vice admiral of the navy—Momosui Gion.

With her slender, jade-like hands, she deftly drew the golden brocade from her waist.

"Konbi - Death Slash!"

A crimson-gold slash instantly tore through the air, its sharp aura obliterating everything in its path, heading straight for Hariri.

Hariri's eyes grew even more crazed.

"Slaughter, Butcher!"

He brandished his longsword, imbued with the power of space, and leaped out into the air, unleashing a bloodthirsty killing intent.

The two forces collided head-on on the battlefield in an instant.

"boom!"

The ground trembled violently as the two impacts collided with tremendous force, and the aftershocks of the explosions powerfully created a huge crater.

"Diyuan, I'm here to help you!"

The beige-colored, rather sleazy-looking Chaton Kake is extremely fast.

This guy follows Gion around like a shadow, no matter where he is.

Of course, given the brutality of the battlefield today, this approach is more beneficial than harmful, at least significantly improving safety.

"Storm Kick - Wind Slash!"

As he shifted and moved, a flash of light erupted from Jiaji's legs.

That was the power released by a powerful kicking technique, a high-speed kick that unleashed an astonishing slash.

In the sky, bright red petals drifted down, and a figure surrounded by petals appeared among them.

"Rose Dance!"

As the twin blades clashed, dreamlike petals intertwined with the fierce slashes, shooting out in a truly astonishing display.

"Buzz~"

The two slashes collided, producing a series of buzzing sounds, and the dreamlike slashes dissipated into the world like flower petals.

"Floral Vista~"

Gion's eyes flashed, and his Kinbi sword, crackling with lightning, unleashed a powerful gust of wind as he swung it once more.

"Konbi: Bad Wind!"

The slash, several tens of meters long, unleashed a violent gust of wind, tearing through the ground and hurtling towards the foil Bista.

A cruel, cold voice suddenly rang out.

"Woman, you're ignoring me!"

Hariri appeared in front of Gion, his blade, shimmering with spatial power, exuding a chilling aura, and slashed towards Gion's body.

Gion's pupils were imposing; at such close range, it was difficult to mount a quick counterattack.

"Hariri, you won't succeed with me here."

Kaga, who had already sensed something was wrong, also appeared and used his long sword to block a fatal attack for Gion.

At the same time, Vista crossed his twin swords in front of him.

"Double Rose Slash!"

A trembling hum resounded as two intersecting cross-shaped slashes descended from the sky.

"boom!"

A deafening roar followed, a fierce wind arose, and ripples scattered and crashed across the surrounding area.

This is the terrifying power of the Hibernian Empire in the New World.

The series of earth-shattering battles, broadcast around the world, have stirred the nerves of countless people.

Even the rare battle between the two emperors and the Worst Age became insignificant in the face of this massive war.

Everyone on the high seas knew that this was a massive war destined to be recorded in history.

It was a war that truly changed the course of history.

Who will ultimately win?

Is it the Heberfeller Empire, rising at the speed of light, or the World Government, which has ruled the world for 800 years?

Numerous discussions arose.

On the battlefield...

Even the powerful and elite knightly orders began to suffer casualties of varying degrees.

In such a massive battle, even the Dragonblood Knights, known for their physical strength, could hardly withstand attacks from all directions for an extended period.

A naval lieutenant commander pierced through the body of a member of the Skeleton Knights with a single slash.

The wounded members of the Skeleton Knights did not utter a sound of pain; their indifferent demeanor was chilling.

Before the other party could draw his sword and retreat, his hands frantically grabbed the navy's body.

"For the glory of the Empire!"

His gaze was fanatical and frenzied, and he shouted as he instantly detonated a specially made bomb.

"boom……"

A terrifying heatwave erupted, and the two were instantly reduced to nothingness.

Both sides, blinded by rage, resembled demons from hell in their frenzied state.

All that's left now is the insane belief that it's either you die or I die.

Within Pangu City, "between the powers."

The Five Elders stared indifferently at the square screen in front of them, which was broadcasting the brutal scenes from the battlefield.

The atmosphere was calm and still, but the chilling aura made one's blood run cold.

Life was like roadside weeds to these old monsters, one crop after another.

No matter how much loss we suffer, it doesn't matter.

However, it is indeed time to take action.

With the Knights of God guarding this place, their fate is understandable.
