Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

"It's up to you. As long as you can arrive at Marineford as agreed and hold them there for half a day, then leave the rest to me. I will also do as promised to bring about a world-shaking change in this era. At the very least, I will allow your sons to freely bask in the sunlight and swim in the sea."

Immediately, Yann's figure flashed and disappeared in front of Whitebeard.

Meanwhile, the Whitebeard Pirates, located in the New World, were not far from the Red Line. Ace's public execution was scheduled for ten days later.

Now, the entire ocean is in a state of imminent crisis.

The unexpected death of Vice Admiral Tefimo Yann, a naval hero, added a layer of uncertainty to everything, and some pirate crews began to stir.

Among them was the "BIG MOM Pirates"!

Since Charlotte Linlin's wedding was attacked and disrupted several years ago, Charlotte Linlin has been in a state of extreme hatred towards the World Government, causing a huge change in the entire Big Mom Pirates' stance towards the World Government and the Navy.

As the Marine Headquarters and the Whitebeard Pirates were about to go to war, the Big Mom Pirates, whose territory was relatively closer to the Red Line, also began to stir.

If the Marine Headquarters could be wiped out in one fell swoop, it would undoubtedly be a tremendous boon for the pirate community.

"Mom, it's been confirmed. Vice Admiral Yann hasn't shown his face for three days, which means the rumor is highly credible. Vice Admiral Yann was attacked and killed in Marineford. And because the culprit is likely one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Marine Headquarters' attitude towards the Seven Warlords has changed drastically."

As the chief minister of the "BIG MOM Pirates", Charlotte Perospero excitedly reported to Charlotte Linlin.

"Huh?! So, this is a great opportunity to swallow the Marine Headquarters whole?" Charlotte Linlin asked with a wide, chilling grin.

"No...that's right..."

Perospero said with a hint of nervousness, "Losing a top-tier combatant comparable to Shanks must be a real headache for the Marine Headquarters right now."

Charlotte Linlin couldn't help but stick out her thick tongue and lick around her mouth before continuing to ask.

"Also, you just said that my runaway husband, Corazon, is also in Marineford, right?"

Perospero was taken aback, never expecting that Charlotte Linlin would still remember Corazon, and then quickly answered.

"Ah...yes, it is indeed in Marineford."

“mamama~~”

Charlotte Linlin burst into laughter, her plump body, which was crammed onto the pink throne, swaying back and forth as she spoke.

"Gather all the officers and head to Marineford! This time, I'm going to get revenge for the wedding being ruined, and then snatch Corazon back!"

"Yes, Mom, I'll go down and gather them right away..."

Just then, Katakuri suddenly spoke up. "Wait, Mom."

"Um!?!"

Charlotte Linlin looked at Katakuri with displeasure and said, "Katakuri, are you trying to stop me?"

"No, Mom."

Katakuri shook his head and said.

"But if we openly gather our officers and set off, the World Government and the Navy will likely, just like last time, constantly send people with abilities similar to Kuzan to harass our sailing speed, preventing us from catching up with the war."

Upon hearing this, Charlotte Linlin clenched her fists involuntarily, clearly recalling that unpleasant memory from the past.

"Have you come up with a solution?" Perospero asked.

"Ok!"

Katakuri nodded, his expression unchanged.

“We can use Brulee’s ‘Mirror-Mirror Fruit’ ability to enter the Mirror World, then move around in the Mirror World until we reach the Marine Headquarters, and then launch a surprise attack from the Mirror World.”

While Perospero and the other executives were still hesitating and deliberating upon Katakuri's suggestion, Charlotte Linlin was overjoyed and confirmed it without giving it much thought.

[Chapter 766. The World's Most Devil Fruits]

With Charlotte Linlin adopting the "Mirror World Attack Plan," the other executives, though somewhat worried about the suggestion, dared not directly refute Charlotte Linlin.

Logically speaking, Katakuri's suggestion is very reasonable, and the Mirror World is highly secretive enough to deceive the World Government and the Navy into launching a surprise attack on Marineford.

However, the Mirror World is an extremely special space, and the only "key" to entering and exiting is Charlotte Brûlée herself, the user of the "Mirror-Mirror Fruit".

If anything happens to Charlotte Brûlée, the entire "BIG MOM Pirates" will be completely trapped in the Mirror World and unable to escape.

Of course, it wasn't that Perospero doubted Katakuri and Brulee's loyalty; it was simply that his cautious nature made him instinctively more worried about the risks involved.

"Forget it, just keep a close eye on Brulee and make sure nothing happens to her."

Perospero comforted himself inwardly, and then began to make detailed and meticulous arrangements for the plan.

At this critical juncture, Perospero was well aware that the World Government and the Navy had definitely dispatched a considerable number of spies to investigate the movements of the "Big Mom Pirates".

Therefore, to ensure the secrecy of the operation, Perospero, in the name of Charlotte Linlin, convened a large number of the "BIG MOM Pirates" executives for an internal tea party, and then sealed off the castle, prohibiting all people and things from entering or leaving.

Subsequently, Charlotte Linlin led a large number of the "BIG MOM Pirates" executives and elite Homies into the Mirror World.

Furthermore, in order to ensure the speed of the "Big Mom Pirates'" advance in the Mirror World, Charlotte Linlin personally created giant, autonomous vehicles called Homies, which carried the "Big Mom Pirates" towards the Marine Headquarters in the Mirror World.

“mamama~”

Amid Charlotte Linlin's excited and joyful laughter, this force, which comprised over 90% of the fighting power of the "BIG MOM Pirates," began its march.

……

What Charlotte Linlin and Perospero didn't know was that while their every move might have escaped the notice of the World Government and the Navy, the relevant information was accurately transmitted to Yann after they all entered the Mirror World.

Yaen glanced at the densely packed and exceptionally detailed list in the intelligence in his hand. It accurately recorded the specific names of the cadres who followed "BIG·MOM" Charlotte Linlin into the "Mirror World," and even the names of the cadres in charge of the World Defense, who were now extremely empty, were listed clearly.

A slight smile played on Yann's lips as he murmured, "Boring..."

Seeing this, Baby-5, dressed in a maid outfit and with a smile that was no longer her usual cold expression but instead filled with a long-lost smile, couldn't help but ask.

"Lord Yann, has something unexpected happened?"

"No, quite the opposite..."

Yarn put the list down and said, "Because everything has gone too smoothly, many of the backup plans I prepared haven't had a chance to be used. Isn't that a kind of boredom?"

Baby-5 couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this, saying, "Isn't this normal? Even the so-called Four Emperors are not on the same level as Lord Yann."

“Don’t underestimate Charlotte Linlin, baby-5. You’re no match for her yet,” Yann said in a low voice, scolding baby-5 who seemed to be getting a little too cocky lately.

baby-5 stuck out its tongue slightly and mumbled softly.

"Doesn't this mean that Charlotte Linlin is no match for Lord Arn? Aren't I a part of Lord Arn? It's the same thing."

“However, from the moment we entered the Mirror World, the game between us, which may never have even existed, was completely over, Charlotte Linlin. As expected... you are the easiest one to deal with.”

As he sighed, Yone gestured for Baby-5 to hand him a Den Den Mushi, and then transmitted a new instruction through the Den Den Mushi: "The World Liberation Project shall proceed as scheduled."

"Hehe, if Charlotte Lingling knew that the World Ocean would soon be liberated by the organization, she would probably be furious, right?" baby-5 said with a smile.

Yone put down the Den Den Mushi and said, "Don't worry, she won't have a chance to find out. Charlotte Linlin is an indispensable and important pawn in this war."

"Hmm?" baby-5 asked, somewhat puzzled.

To this, Yann smiled without saying a word, and instead asked, "How far is it from the underwater prison?"

Baby-5, whose upper body was dressed as a maid and whose lower body was mechanically connected to a huge steel monster resembling a naval warship, closed her eyes slightly and then answered.

"It will take less than an hour to reach the underwater prison."

"Naval Headquarters and Impel Down have a fixed communication cycle via Den Den Mushi (snail communication device), which is once every six hours. The next scheduled contact time is..."

Yaen checked the time and then spoke.

"Half an hour later, baby-5, have Ivankov begin executing the plan in the underwater prison in half an hour."

"Yes, Lord Yann."

After contacting Ivankov to confirm the plan, Baby-5 asked with some doubt, "Lord Yann, the war hasn't really started yet? Isn't this a bit too hasty?"

Yann replied dismissively.

"No problem. From the moment I was attacked and killed in Marineford, the Marine Headquarters also began to worry about Ace's safety, so they transferred Ace from Impel Down to Marineford ahead of time. Without Ace, the World Government and the Navy will not pay any attention to Impel Down."

"But is there anything important inside the underwater prison?" baby-5 asked.

"Have……"

A cold glint flashed in Yann's eyes. He turned his head to look at the fruit piled up on the warship behind him, which was simulated by Baby-5, and answered calmly.

"Imprisoner's Undersea Palace holds the world's largest collection of Devil Fruits."

Baby-5's heart skipped a beat.

"If I had a choice, I wouldn't have made this decision, but..."

Yaen slowly stood up and said calmly.

"The number of artificial fruits that Corazon has accumulated over the years is still a bit short. In that case, we can only make up for the missing part through other means."

"Moreover, I have to suspect that the World Government's original intention in establishing the underwater prison may be the same as my current thinking. In an emergency, it would be possible to quickly collect a large number of Devil Fruits by executing prisoners."

"So no matter what, I will never allow the underwater prison to remain intact until that moment arrives."

[Chapter 767. Enel's Reclusion]

The underwater prison, hidden on the 5.5th floor below ground, is a new transvestite paradise.

"Hip hop~"

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Ivankov excitedly raised his hands and cheered towards the group of transvestites in front of him. "My little ones, a new era is coming! Get excited!"

"Oh~~~"

Immediately, the group of prisoners who had accepted Ivankov's "new transvestite" concept and had already broken through gender boundaries also began to revel.

Yinwankov's large face and body twisted back and forth excitedly, as if dancing to the music, while his fingertips flicked out nails and then stuck them into his own body.

"Hip-hop..."

The next moment, Ivankov's originally burly and strong body quickly became graceful and slender, and then he pointed forward and said loudly.

"My minions, in the name of the Queen of the Transvestite Kingdom, I declare that today is the day to welcome our comrades. Go forth and bring the unique vitality of transvestites to this lifeless prison."

"oh!!"

Immediately, at Ivankov's command, the densely packed transvestites in front of them quickly scattered in all directions from this new transvestite paradise, which was part of the underwater prison.

During his time infiltrating this underwater prison, Ivankov constantly observed the noteworthy prisoners within, and had long since identified which individuals were worth recruiting and possessed formidable fighting power.

These are the targets that Ivankov is targeting while infiltrating the underwater prison!

Now, with Yann's orders arriving, Ivankov has begun to stir up chaos in the underwater prison without hesitation, and has freed those who are worth recruiting and have strong combat power.
