Pirates: It's not a mythical beast, it's a phantom god

"Yes!"

Lieutenant General Meen nodded and was about to take the seastone handcuffs handed to him by the soldier, but was stopped by another major general who was on good terms with him.

"Mien, you are injured, so just take a good rest. Leave this little matter to me."

"Um... okay. Remember to be careful and use extra pairs of handcuffs."

"Haha, I'll do the work, don't worry~"

The major general smiled and nodded, then looked at Mien's waist.

"By the way, your sword was broken by that red-haired brat, right? I just happened to get a famous sword a while ago. You can try it when we get back."

"How can this be so embarrassing..."

"Don't try to be so polite! We're from the same era. We both came from the same school under Master Zefa... so why are you being so polite to me?"

"Just treat me to a meal at the Golden Glazed Pavilion later."

"..."

"……it is good."

"Haha~ Remember to bring a few extra wallets. I don't want to be stuck washing dishes there."

After receiving a satisfactory answer, the major general smiled, waved his hand, and then jumped off the deck.

bang~

"Divine Strike."

Chapter 251 Panic

"Bang~"

The sound of the Moon Step only echoed one step in the air, and then the major general with a smile on his face suddenly disappeared in mid-air.

There was no movement, no sign, no... trace.

It was as if this person had never existed in the world - he disappeared completely.

Every strand of hair, every eyelash, and every nail turned into tiny points of light and disappeared into the void in the next blink of an eye.

……

Wow~

A large bunch of handcuffs fell into the sea, and the clattering sound attracted the people on the boat who were still chatting and laughing with each other.

"Hmm? Where's General Pa?"

"Why did you suddenly disappear?"

"And what was that splashing sound just now? Did something fall into the sea?"

They didn't know what had just happened.

Those who had been paying attention to the developments here had fallen into a brief daze.

The lively expressions that were originally relaxed, serious, excited, or complacent were now frozen on his face like a wax figure.

They didn't understand what had just happened.

A gust of sea breeze blew by, and an ownerless coat of justice in the sky flew up and down aimlessly in the wind like a lost seagull, and finally landed back on the warship...

"Guuuu~"

"This, this is..."

Taking steps that were slightly uncoordinated due to his injury, Mien took down the white coat hanging on the cable and brought it close to his eyes...

The slightly cool air had already taken away the last bit of warmth left by its original owner.

"…P-Pado?"

"Pado!"

"Everyone, get down!"

"Enemy attack!"

Zhan Guo rushed over and pushed Mien down, putting his body under the cover of the ship's side.

"Quick, notify all ships! The enemy may have snipers at very long range, get everyone to take cover!"

"quick!!!"

Zhan Guo ordered in a hissing voice.

Snap—Snap—

Countless chaotic footsteps sounded on the deck.

For a moment, except for Zhan Guo, everyone hid themselves as much as possible.

The middle and low-level officers and soldiers who had been following Zhan Guo and were directly under his command immediately followed the order according to their body instincts, but they were all a little uneasy and surprised in their hearts.

There was no other reason. Just now, for the first time, Zhan Guo's tone was filled with unconcealable panic.

In the past, no matter when, no matter what situation, even when surrounded by layers of enemies, this "wise general" always gave people a sense of calmness in planning and strategizing.

It was as if he had kept a trump card that could decide the outcome of the battle.

It is this calm and composed temperament that prevents these followers from cowardly fleeing no matter what kind of vicious pirates they face. They can always face various enemies with a positive attitude.

But... from the order just now, they no longer heard that reassuring sense of calmness.

"General, have the enemy appeared again?"

"Where is the other party?"

Zhan Guo's adjutant leaned against the side of the ship, came up to him and asked softly.

"do not know."

"what?"

"I do not know."

Zhan Guo's expression now looked very ugly. He didn't even see the slightest trace of the attack just now. It seemed as if his observation Haki had failed.

A major general from our headquarters was killed right in front of him!

As a general, he was unable to make any counterattack... Panic, anger, anxiety, and a hint of... horror, all these emotions weighed on his heart like layers of dark clouds.

When the adjutant heard Zhan Guo's uncertain answer, a moment of panic flashed across his face, and then he quickly pulled the other's trouser leg.

"General, you should also find a shelter and hide. The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. It's too dangerous for you to be like this!"

"No."

Zhan Guo, not caring at all about being exposed to the enemy, refused outright and continued to stand upright on the deck.

"If they choose me as their next target, that's perfect. I can use this opportunity to see through their tactics."

"Otherwise, if they continue to carry out these strange sniping attacks, we will be unable to move forward."

An attack that could kill a major general in one hit, no one present except Zhan Guo could withstand it, so he had no choice.

Under the navy's uniform, a faint golden light began to shine again, and Zhan Guo was like an experienced angler, waiting for the fish to take the bait.

……

"Ok?"

"What are you gesturing at, La?"

Several miles away on the Beasts flagship, Burfat, who was watching over Kaido, saw La walking past him, then made an 'aiming' gesture at the bow, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

He thought La was going to do something or use some attacking moves, but it seemed that the other party had no such intention.

La simply raised his right hand and looked for a while, then put it down again. No unusual phenomena occurred during the whole process.

The sea breeze still fills the sails, the waves still lap against the side of the ship, and the sun still shines on the deck...

"nothing."

With crimson eyes looking somewhere ahead, La answered nonchalantly.

Several miles away, although two large holes were opened in the dark clouds woven by Osi, they still did not completely dissipate.

The sea surface was a grayish dirty blue, in stark contrast to the clear blue water on their side due to direct sunlight.

"Ossi and the others lost, let's go there quickly."

Walking back to Kaido's side, seeing that he still showed no sign of waking up, La spoke again.

"what?"

"The brat lost?!"

"Miss Ossie lost?"

Two voices sounded at the same time, and Kaido, who was lying on the ground, seemed to be woken up, and his brows began to twitch.

"Miss La, what is going on?"

Because his own ship No. 1 was destroyed, Taolong, who had been staying on the flagship as Burfat's deputy, was also shocked by La's words.

As the most ambitious person in the Beasts who has been working hard to become one of the five core cadres, Taolong has a good understanding of Osi.

Even if the opponent is Kaido, Ossi can remain invincible with his speed.

But now he was defeated in just over ten minutes. Is that navy admiral really so strong?

"Nothing surprising here. Osi didn't choose to rely on her speed advantage to continue guerrilla warfare. Instead, she joined forces with Obei to directly confront the general."

"So failure is natural. After all, the opponent is superior to Osi and the others in terms of experience and hard power."

La's words seemed very casual, as if he didn't care or worry about his sisters' defeat.

"Even Oubey is involved?"

"Ah."

"So we have to speed up and pick them up now."

"Yes, yes! Speed ​​up, speed up!"

"But Brother Burfat, this is the fastest speed now."

"What should we do?! What if the little ghosts are caught, then..."

Before Burfat could finish his words, the warship under his feet suddenly shook, as if an invisible force was lifting this huge ship from the sea.

Chapter 252 The Third Declaration of War

"By the way, what's going on with that guy Zhan Guo?!"

"Why do you keep stopping and starting?"

At the end of the navy fleet, the pirates who had been unable to figure out the specific situation due to lack of intelligence gradually began to get anxious.

They were all people who had become enemies with Wald because of his tyranny. Knowing that it was hopeless to take revenge on their own, and just when the navy showed its intention to join forces with them to eliminate Wald, they formed the current loose alliance.

Although they knew they might be used as pawns by the navy, these pirates were not fools.

They have always kept a close distance from the navy fleet to ensure that they can escape immediately if there is any disturbance.

But the current situation was somewhat beyond their expectations. After sailing with this group of navy for such a long time, Wald did not see any flying enemies, but they appeared one after another.

Although they were too far away to see the appearance of the people who attacked the navy, they could not ignore the scene of wind and thunder just now.

"Are these navy guys trying to trick us? I don't remember any flying creatures on that bastard Walder's ship."

"And the situation just now, with the wind and thunder, I'm afraid that Zhan Guo guy has some other plans!"

"Hmm~ I've heard from others that Zhan Guo is a mean-spirited guy. He weighs 200 pounds but has a 201-pound mind~ I think it's best for us to run away as soon as possible."

"Senior A Biao is right."

……

"Admiral, the people behind us reported that the pirates are becoming restless and seem to be planning to retreat."
