Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

"boom!"

Hundreds of millions of cherry blossoms fell among the countless pirates with a single finger from Yann.

At this moment, Naval Base 323 was like an isolated island, and outside this island was a surging sea of ​​cherry blossoms.

However, this sea of ​​cherry blossoms... was fraught with danger. Bright red blood flowers bloomed amidst the cherry blossoms, making the base commanders shudder.

So strong!

This is far more powerful than they could have imagined!

Is this the Beihai Inspectorate, the sickly official who is rumored to rely entirely on his father's reputation?

"Gurgle!"

A collective chorus of swallowing echoed through the naval base. The naval soldiers, who had been preparing to fight the pirates to the death, were all stunned, staring blankly at the outside world.

They never imagined that the Beihai Inspectorate, whose role they considered limited to reporting corrupt officials, was actually so powerful.

With a wave of the hand, a dreamlike sea of ​​cherry blossoms fell upon the world, bringing with it countless blossoms of blood.

[Chapter 104: Please, Don't Die]

Meanwhile, in the sea of ​​cherry blossoms separated from the naval soldiers by only a wall, chilling screams could be heard incessantly.

From those screams alone, the naval soldiers could imagine the pain and fear the pirates were enduring.

Perhaps, for those top-tier powerhouses who can maintain a high level of Armament Haki in normal times, the damage caused by the cherry blossoms transformed from the "Soul-Slaying Blade: Senbonzakura" is almost equivalent to a minor scratch.

However, aside from the small number of powerful individuals in the ocean, the damage caused by those cherry blossoms, which are actually blades, is undoubtedly like cutting flesh.

At this moment, for those pirates, it was no less than being plunged into the hell of cherry blossom blades, with tiny blades constantly cutting into their bodies.

And in this boundless sea of ​​cherry blossoms, they had nowhere to hide, nowhere to resist, nowhere to fight back!

A few breaths, just a few breaths!

What filled countless sailors with awe was that the incessant screams suddenly ceased, and the sea of ​​cherry blossoms stained with blood slowly drifted upwards.

it's over!

At Naval Base 323, all the naval personnel suddenly had the same idea.

It's over in every sense of the word!

Is this... the power of the Marine Headquarters?

Is this the power of the Inspector General of Beihai?

At that moment, the naval base commanders seemed to vaguely understand something.

Why has the Inspector General of the North Sea Inspectorate almost never left the 521 Naval Base in the past six years?

Originally, in the past, the chiefs of the North Sea Naval Base had been discussing and speculating in secret that the North Sea Inspector General was physically weak and therefore worried that leaving the 521 Naval Base would lead to assassination, extreme weather, or pirate attacks and other unexpected events.

The implication is that the North Sea Inspector General, son of the Admiral, is cowardly and has been hiding in Naval Base 521, relying entirely on his subordinate, Lieutenant Hope, to patrol the area and complete his gilded inspectorate duties.

However, at this moment, the naval base commanders who witnessed Yann's wave of his hand causing the sea of ​​cherry blossoms to fall to earth understood.

Perhaps, from beginning to end, in the eyes of the North Sea Inspectorate, these base commanders were merely insignificant figures.

Therefore, they are simply not worth the effort of the powerful North Sea Inspectorate.

Sending a subordinate to inspect the area is already a great honor for all the commanders of the Beihai base!

"Gurgle..."

The naval base commander, who had once been extremely skeptical of Yone's solo mission to provide support and had even argued with Lieutenant Hope, swallowed hard and muttered to himself.

"It is so...so impolite of me to need the Inspector General's help."

After the base commander said that, the other base commanders suddenly realized what was going on and all looked at Lieutenant Hope, who was lying on the sofa.

"Quickly, doctor, doctor!"

"No matter what, we must cure Lieutenant Hope..."

"I know a little first aid, please move aside..."

The base commanders sprang into action almost simultaneously, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

It's hard to imagine what would happen if the Inspector General's subordinates died before their very eyes.

What will be the fate of these officers who stand idly by while Lieutenant Hope single-handedly holds off the pirates?

So... don't die! Please don't die, Mr. Hope!

Especially the base commander who had previously questioned Yann, he almost knelt down and kowtowed to Lieutenant Hope, begging him not to die.

If Lieutenant Hope were to actually die, they doubted whether the Inspector General would send him to Enies Lobby for trial on the grounds of "disregarding the life and death of his comrades."

At that moment, with a thought from Yann, the sea of ​​cherry blossoms rose up once again like a canopy covering the sky, obscuring the entire heavens.

Below, those arrogant and audacious pirates who dared to besiege the naval base were already lying on the ground.

As Arn's gaze swept across the area, enveloped in Observation Haki, he quickly noticed a sudden presence.

The next moment, a wisp of cherry blossom separated from the sea of ​​cherry blossoms floating in the sky and fell towards that place.

"boom!"

Just as the cherry blossoms were about to sweep across that area, a red figure suddenly leaped out from it, and a flying slash was thrown out, scattering that wisp of cherry blossoms.

Diamanti?!

Yann immediately recognized this one of the top executives of the Don Quixote family.

How could he be here?!

Wait a minute, the pirates suddenly formed an alliance and boldly launched a counterattack and siege against the naval base. Was it the Donquixote Family that was behind it?

That's it!

In just a few breaths, Yann combined the information reported by the 323 Naval Base and figured out the cause and effect.

"So, you're saying that the one who ambushed and seriously injured my stupid subordinate was you, you bastard?"

Arn's gaze toward Diamanti gradually turned cold.

Diamanti had already realized that things were very bad, extremely bad!

The North Sea Inspectorate, which had been hiding in the small 521 naval base for six years and was rumored to be just loafing around, was actually this powerful?!

The fruit has awakened!

It's important to understand that while not every strong individual may develop their Devil Fruit abilities to the point of awakening, every Devil Fruit user who awakens their powers will inevitably become an absolute powerhouse!

At the very least, their combat power far surpasses that of an ordinary Vice Admiral in the Navy Headquarters!

With this level of combat power, even on the vast ocean, he is already a figure that cannot be ignored.

Thousands of pirates were wiped out in just a few breaths!

terrible!

This man is far more terrifying than anyone could imagine!

Diamante felt a chill run down his spine, deeply sensing the approaching threat of death. As he frantically fled towards the port, he also frantically tried to dial Doflamingo's Den Den Mushi.

Above Diamanti, the sea of ​​cherry blossoms that covered the entire sky was stirring, and then... nine long, dragon-like cherry blossoms swept towards Diamanti.

Diamanti glanced at the cherry blossoms surrounding him from all directions out of the corner of his eye. His eyes narrowed, and he slashed out with the longsword in his hand, unleashing another flying slash.

"A funeral procession lasting half a month!"

However, this flying slash, which could easily slice the ground like tofu, only slowed down slightly when it landed on the long dragon of cherry blossoms, and failed to destroy it at all.

"what?!"

Diamanti watched this scene in disbelief.

Meanwhile, in the air above, a hint of disdain crept onto Yann's lips.

Back then, during the battle with Shiki, the top swordsman of the sea, the cherry blossoms transformed by "Bankai: Senbonzakura Kageyoshi" were repeatedly destroyed by Shiki's flying slashes.

Therefore, Yann would naturally strengthen and make up for this weakness.

[Chapter 105 Who do you think you are?]

At least, through Yann's numerous attempts and adjustments, those seemingly fragile cherry blossom petals have gained some resistance to the flying slash attacks.

Instead of being as vulnerable as it was in the past when facing Shiki's flying slashes, only serving a restraining effect.

Moreover, Diamanti is merely a swordsman!

Perhaps this level of swordsmanship could easily kill Aon with a single strike, but that doesn't mean he could withstand "Bankai: Senbonzakura Kageyoshi".

The next moment, to Diamanti's horrified gaze, he was completely surrounded by a large number of cherry blossom petals.

"Bullfighting cape!"

Faced with these seemingly fragile and beautiful, yet incredibly fragile, cherry blossoms, Diamante did not hesitate to use her Devil Fruit power.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle..."

He wrapped himself in that seemingly ordinary cloak, and the numerous cherry blossoms cut into it produced a series of metallic scraping sounds.

This feeling is somewhat similar to the feeling of those bullets hitting Arn's Death Armor.

It looks like ordinary cloth, but its essence is the same as steel.

"So that's how it is. So you were unharmed while surrounded by a sea of ​​cherry blossoms because you used this ability?" Yann murmured.

If Yann's information about the Donquixote Family is correct, the Devil Fruit Diamante ate was called the "Floating Fruit".

However, compared to Shiki's "Float-Float Fruit," which is famous throughout the sea and allows him to easily manipulate islands, seawater, air, and so on, this "Float-Float Fruit," which is considered a lower-level Devil Fruit, seems much simpler.

The "Float-Float Fruit" ability allows the user to transform any object they touch into a light, flowing form, like silk. For example, the cloak Diamante wears is essentially made of steel, but it was transformed into this silk-like state using the "Float-Float Fruit."

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle..."

The piercing, sharp scraping sound continued, as if countless tiny blades were cutting back and forth across Diamanti's cloak.

"Let's get going!"

Completely lacking confidence in withstanding the power of a Devil Fruit awakening, Diamante wrapped himself in his cloak like a tortoise shell and hurriedly continued towards the port while frantically dialing Doflamingo's Den Den Mushi.

However, how could Yann allow this pirate, who had disrupted his joint operation plan and seriously injured Lieutenant Hope, to be allowed to succeed?
