Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

However, the naval warships, frozen on the sea surface and unable to move, were practically sitting ducks. Under the barrage of fire, they quickly fell into a complete disadvantage, and then these naval warships, which served as the first line of defense in the Navy Headquarters' battle plan, were destroyed one after another.

This scene made both the Sengoku Marshal and the Vice Admiral Tsuru, who were the planners of the battle formation, look quite grim.

The fact that the Navy's battle formation was so overwhelmingly broken by mere pirates in front of the whole world undoubtedly severely damaged the Navy's reputation and prestige.

Now that Aon has sacrificed himself, Marshal Sengoku and Lieutenant General Tsuru cannot blame Aon for the mistake of arranging such a battle formation. They can only blame themselves for being too careless in arranging the battle formation!

As the remaining pirate ships approached the ice, Whitebeard raised his "Murakumogiri" high towards the execution platform and announced loudly.

"Men, since Marine Headquarters has chosen war, then I'll grant their wish! Let's fight! Follow me!!!"

Immediately, at Whitebeard's command, a large number of pirates rushed out from their ships, brandishing weapons.

"Follow up with the old man and let them know how powerful the Whitebeard Pirates are!"

"Hahaha, guys, keep up, keep up, let's cause a ruckus at Marine Headquarters!"

"Marineford, I'm coming..."

In an instant, under the watchful eyes of the world, the conflict between the navy and the pirates broke out in full force. The pirates, in their momentary bravado, even briefly suppressed the elite navy's lines, causing the navy to appear to be forced into an orderly retreat.

This scene made many civilians extremely nervous, worried that the Marine Headquarters would be unable to withstand the Whitebeard Pirates' offensive and would collapse.

In contrast, the pirates watching the projected Den Den Mushi around the world cheered excitedly.

"Oh oh oh..."

"That's right, that's it! Take down those marines!"

"If it weren't for the navy, this ocean would be ours."

……

It can be said that, with the Lian Chamber of Commerce's all-out efforts in planning, this war, which truly spans every corner of the sea, has completely captivated everyone.

Regardless of the outcome of the war, it will profoundly affect the course of the world...

However, just as the war in Marineford was truly in full swing, and countless people were focusing all their attention on the live broadcast synchronized with the projected Den Den Mushi, the war was unfolding.

In a large hall at the Revolutionary Army headquarters on Skypiea in the Grand Line, a huge projection screen was also displayed in mid-air.

However, the projected image was not of the war in Marineford, but of the island representatives of the revolutionary army scattered across every island in the world. The images were densely divided into six major regions, and the number of them was in the tens of thousands.

This is also a communication network that the Lean Trading Company secretly built, capable of connecting all islands, while they were creating a worldwide projection Den Den Mushi network for the World Government.

At that moment, Dragon stood in the middle of the hall, his eyes closed, while tens of thousands of island representatives connected to the hall via the communication network watched him.

Everything... had been in preparation for months, years, or even more than twenty years ago, and all we had been waiting for was this moment!

"Chief, the war in Marineford has fully broken out!"

A comrade who was solely responsible for closely monitoring the course of the war at the top of the hill hurriedly reported to Dragon.

Dorrag suddenly opened his eyes, then pulled a red strip of cloth from his bosom, tied it around his right arm, raised his right hand high, and announced passionately.

"Comrades, the liberation of the sea...begin! Let the flames of revolution burn away all the filth of this sea, and bring about unprecedented reform!!!"

[Chapter 796. Whitebeard at his peak!]

Immediately, the revolutionary army's island representatives appearing on the communication network responded to Doraga almost in unison, as if they had been prepared in advance, and uniformly tied a conspicuous red strip of cloth around their right arms.

In an instant, a large area of ​​crimson appeared in the scene in front of Dorag!

'This is crimson flame, and it will also be blood, and... it will be the beginning of revolution!!!'

Dragon's eyes seemed to burn with flames as he saluted the tens of thousands of island representatives appearing densely on the projection screen in front of him.

After the island representatives returned Dorrag's salute, they quickly began to take action.

In the hall, the technical, liaison, and staff personnel who had been waiting in advance began simultaneously to support the actions of each island's representative cadre according to plan, and to bring adjacent islands or island groups into the same command channel.

In the entire ocean, more than half of the small and medium-sized islands have indeed been completely brought under the control of the revolutionary army!

The goal of the first phase of this maritime liberation operation is to adhere to the established strategy of "encircling the world's member states with small and medium-sized islands" and spread the flames of revolution to the world's member states scattered throughout the sea!

……

At this moment, while countless people were captivated by the war in Marineford, the revolutionary comrades scattered throughout the sea, along with their respective island representatives, tied red cloths around their right arms and held weapons, resembling countless streams converging into a river, or sparks gathering into clusters of crimson flames.

Their target was not civilians, nor was it looting...

Having been oppressed for countless years, they did not intend to retaliate against the world's member states that constantly drained the blood of the surrounding islands to maintain their high "heavenly gold" and their own power and status.

Their goal... is liberation, is to eliminate the aristocratic class of the world's constituent republics who lord it over the common people!

At this moment, the anger that had been building up for countless years finally erupted. Merchant ships that had set off from different small and medium-sized islands hoisted their crimson flags and launched attacks on the world's member states that they had planned to join.

……

Meanwhile, Yann, who was not at the Revolutionary Army headquarters temporarily located on Sky Island, was browsing through the intelligence reports that were being sent to him by the General Staff.

A moment later, a smile appeared on Yann's lips as he murmured something.

"It has begun; a single spark will soon ignite a prairie fire..."

"Approximately one hour from now, the war between the Revolutionary Army and the world's member states will officially begin. About three hours later, the Revolutionary Army and the world's member states scattered around the world will truly clash on all fronts..."

As Yann recalled various data points in his mind, he estimated the course of the upcoming war.

In the war scenario deduced by the Revolutionary Army's high command and staff, despite the obvious differences in national strength, combat power, and scale among the member states of the world, the outcome was still uncertain.

However, with the Revolutionary Army's various methods of advance planning and deployment, it would only take one day for the Revolutionary Army to overthrow at least more than half of the world's member states!

With the World Government's attention largely drawn to the Marineford War and the Navy having mobilized its elite forces from around the world, the World Government and Navy simply did not have enough time to provide effective support within a single day.

A day later, the Revolutionary Army will begin to redeploy its forces to liberate other member states as quickly as possible, while simultaneously building a defensive line on the islands it currently controls to prepare for a counterattack from the member states and their navies.

That will be the true beginning of the war!

In the most ideal scenario, if the Revolutionary Army can hold off the World Government for three days, it should be able to liberate 90% of the world's member states while continuously redeploying its forces.

Finally, the combined power of the entire ocean will engage in a decisive battle with the World Government!

As for when victory will be achieved, and how much blood will be shed throughout the process, almost all the revolutionary comrades have already made the corresponding commitments.

Without sacrifice and bloodshed, there will never be a new future.

Yaen slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his gentle gaze held the final resolve he had made.

……

Meanwhile, the war in Marineford had reached a fever pitch, with both sides constantly employing various tactics and numerous top-tier marine forces engaging in fierce combat.

Whitebeard displayed an absolute power that was absolutely astonishing, wielding the Tremor-Tremor Fruit in one hand and the Supreme Grade Sword Murakumogiri in the other, leading his pirate crew in a bloody battle!

Despite the deployment of all three admirals, Whitebeard held off the two top combatants of the Navy, Sakazuki and Kuzan, even as Marco held off Admiral Borsalino.

Amidst the eruption of lava and ice, nothing could suppress Whitebeard's boldness and domineering presence; instead, it revealed to the world what it meant to be "the strongest man in the world."

Facing the combined attacks from Sakazuki and Kuzan, who were simultaneously unleashing extreme lava and extreme cold, Whitebeard boldly and powerfully thrust the "Murakumogiri" into his side and roared with domineering arrogance.

"Bring it on, brat. Your mere flames, fit only for lighting candles at birthday parties, and your ice for chilling wine, let's see if they can stop me..."

The next moment, Whitebeard clenched his fists, and as his captain's coat fluttered behind him, he unleashed fists imbued with the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit at Sakazuki and Kuzan respectively.

"boom!!"

On either side of Whitebeard, large, net-like cracks suddenly appeared in the air, and the shockwaves burst forth, forcefully blocking Sakazuki and Kuzan, who were respectively like a volcano and an iceberg.

even……

"Kuralalala...Get the hell out of here!!"

"boom!"

To the astonishment of the world, Sakazuki and Kuzan, the Navy's top combat forces, were blasted away almost simultaneously!

That's amazing!!

Not only did people around the world feel this way at the same time, but even the Warring States marshal on the execution platform far away couldn't help but clench his fists.

"So strong! And...something's not right..."

"How could Whitebeard have such abundant stamina? The intelligence clearly indicated that Whitebeard's hidden injuries had begun to flare up and his stamina was declining as early as ten years ago. After Garp fought Whitebeard last time, he even gave a positive conclusion to this intelligence. How could this be? It's simply... simply..."

Just then, Vice Admiral Garp walked up to Fleet Admiral Sengoku and solemnly continued his words.

"It's just like their peak!"

--------

P.S.: I'm starting to wrap things up. The rest is a bit harder to write, so the update is a little late. Sorry...

In addition, it is expected to be completed within this month. That's all.

[Chapter 797. The Plague: Quinn?]

peak?!

The Warring States Marshal's eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku knew all too well what Whitebeard's peak fighting strength was like!

Whitebeard earned the title of "Strongest Man in the World" not after Shiki was captured and Roger was executed, but through sheer strength during an era dominated by powerful pirates.

"This is troublesome... Marineford might actually sink because of this..."

Marshal Zhan Guo took a deep breath, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.

Whitebeard's strength has exceeded expectations.

Even if they manage to overwhelm Whitebeard with their numerical advantage, Whitebeard's near-death counterattack might be enough to wipe out the entire Marineford.

"Have Sakazuki and Kuzan hold off Whitebeard, while the rest of our forces converge to suppress the rest of the Whitebeard Pirates and force Whitebeard to be distracted!"

The Sengoku Marshal issued the latest orders in a deep voice to the Den Den Mushi in his hand, and then questioned him.

"Besides that, what are the Seven Warlords of the Sea doing? Why haven't they launched an attack yet?"

"They...they...yes, I'll be urging the Seven Warlords..."

The Marine Rear Admiral on the other end of the Den Den Mushi responded with a sweaty glare, then carried out Fleet Admiral Sengoku's orders, sending more Marines forward to block the pirates' attack. He himself, also sweating profusely, headed straight for the seats of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Since the outbreak of the war, the conflict between the Marine Headquarters and Whitebeard has been fully underway.

However, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, who were originally highly regarded by many in the Navy, remained seated and showed no intention of making a move.

The rear admiral, who belonged to the staff department, said cautiously.
