Inside the broadcast room.
Festa suddenly stood up, his eyes trembling rapidly as he looked at the screen.
Before the celebration officially started, he was neither worried about the arrival of Charlotte Lingling nor the large naval force that might attack at any time.
The only thing he is worried about is Baijia D. Mod, a variable that cannot be ignored.
The world's power has been balanced for many years, but in just two years it was completely destroyed by the variable Mod.
This is the deterrent power of Mod's very existence.
Festa had to pay attention.
"Hey, Barrett..."
Festa ignored the cigar that fell to the ground, widened his eyes and said: "Don't talk about dignity at this time, hurry up and join forces to kill that guy!"
Seeing with his own eyes the power that Mod showed after his appearance, Festa felt that Mod in the live broadcast became extremely dazzling for a moment.
He wants Barrett to temporarily team up with Charlotte Lingling to take down Maude.
However, Barrett, who was on the court, could not hear his words in the broadcast room.
Seas around the world.
Countless ships are heading towards Shuixian Island.
Among these ships are pirates and outlaws from the underworld.
As well as the large naval force lying dormant and waiting for the opportunity.
These ships are all equipped in advance with projection telephones that can connect to live broadcast signals.
On the way to Shuixianxing Island, you can learn as much as possible about the situation on the island through live broadcast.
In this way, you can decide whether to land on the island according to the situation, or give up temporarily, or wait for the opportunity to make an entry.
For those who want to take advantage of it -
So what if you don’t have the strength to compete head-on for the permanent pointer
This celebration is not a racing event.
Therefore, it is not that whoever runs faster will definitely get the permanent pointer. On the contrary, the person who runs at the front from the beginning will be more likely to leave.
Now, the three monsters on the island are fighting.
This development is really exciting for those who want to seize opportunities from chaos.
"Tsk, as expected of Baijia D. Mod, he 'suppressed' the evil ghost successor with just one move..."
"Is he really planning to fight one against two?"
"Is it so strange? That man killed the Celestial Dragons like chickens, and attacked the Holy Land like he was strolling in the back garden. Is there anything he can't do now?"
"I just feel that he is a little too arrogant. After all, his opponent is the successor of the evil spirit."
"Hahaha... isn't this a good thing?"
"Let the monsters fight to the death first, and then we can gain an advantage in the end!"
"That makes sense, hahaha!"
There are not a few pirates who do not have top-level combat power but want to seize the opportunity to grab the permanent pointer.
After all, the inducement that led to the Great Pirate Age was the great secret treasure that Roger left behind before his death.
And Rafdru's permanent pointer directly targets the Great Secret Treasure.
This is simply the most coveted shortcut.
Those men who choose to go to sea because of an idea do not want to miss this opportunity.
Somewhere in a calm sea.
This is a windless zone.
As the name suggests, there is no wind at all.
Therefore, the sea surface is calm without any ripples, and it looks like a mirror reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.
On the windless sea, dozens of blue and white warships were moored.
In order to wait for an excellent opportunity to cut in, the navy's fleet was in no rush to attack.
The extremely strategic location of the Windless Zone could not only hide their existence and movements, but also allow them to reach Shuixian Star Island in a very short time.
In the cabin of the warship.
A projector phone bug projected the live broadcast of Shuixianxing Island on the bulkhead.
The naval admirals headed by Kizaru Fujitora gathered together and were watching the live broadcast projected on the bulkhead attentively.
"It's as scary as ever~~~"
Kizaru touched his chin, and after seeing Mod take action, he subconsciously said his mantra.
This mantra appeared countless times in his military career, usually when he was fighting pirates.
And every time he said this catchphrase, he was actually making fun of him, and he didn't think his opponent was scary at all.
Only facing Maud...
Kizaru said this mantra without any sense of ridicule.
"Suck yo yo..."
Fujitora was eating a bowl of cold noodles. While taking a mouthful of noodles, he turned his head and glanced at Kizaru.
The pasta-loving man did not express an opinion.
In fact, he didn't pay attention to the live broadcast at all, and he didn't need anyone else to explain it to him.
No matter how the situation on Shuixian Island will evolve, the naval fleet that has determined its target from the beginning will only appear at the last moment.
That's right.
In other words, the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman gains.
This is not the first time the Navy has done this.
Going back to the earliest times, in order to defeat the Rocks Pirates, the Navy would join forces with the Roger Pirates regardless of their position.
In order to achieve his goal, he even used means to instigate the people of the Locke Pirates.
These methods were continued many times later.
For example, when dealing with World Destroyer Bundy Waldo, he teamed up with other pirates and instigated Waldo's subordinates to rebel.
Another example is the battle against Barrett more than 20 years ago. It also waited until Barrett and other pirate alliances were finished before appearing.
Complete goals and tasks with minimal risk and cost, even if it means using any means necessary.
Is this approach consistent with justice
Fujitora declined to comment.
He knows what to do.
Zhan Momomaru glanced at Fujitora who was eating noodles very deliciously, and then looked at Mod in the live broadcast screen.
"It's such a powerful monster. No wonder it always defeats the old man. If it's one-on-one, the old man will probably be suppressed by Maud again."
"Huh? Why do I have to say another word?"
"But this time there are new pacifists produced by doctors using new metals. It will definitely not be like last time!!!"
Zhan Taowan tightened the handle of the ax he was carrying, and while thinking in his mind, he accidentally said the words.
suddenly.
He noticed that everyone in the cabin looked towards him almost at the same time.
"What's wrong?"
Zhan Taomaru looked puzzled, and even subconsciously raised his hand to touch his cheek.
He thought there was something dirty on his face, and he had no idea what he had just said in his heart.
There was a strange look in the eyes of everyone present.
They looked at Zhan Momomaru first, and then at Kizaru.
Zhan Taowan said what was in his heart, and they knew that the old man Zhan Taowan was talking about was Kizaru.
Although Zhan Momowan didn't say anything wrong...
But it was really brave to expose Kizaru's scars in front of so many people.
"Did I accidentally say what was on my mind?"
Zhan Taomaru gradually realized something and murmured in a low voice.
Kizaru looked at him and sighed quietly.
"Thank you so much for thinking about me so much, Zhan Momomaru~~~"
“…”
Zhan Taowan looked suffocated.
... ... ... .
Another sea area.
The whale-headed ship flying the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates plowed through the waves on the sea.
The Whitebeard Pirates, which have declined rapidly since the end of the Supreme War, have not withdrawn from the stage.
Thanks to the early exit of the Blackbeard Pirates and the reputation brought by the bloodline of the Pirate King.
After two years, the Whitebeard Pirates, who had quietly accumulated strength in this turbulent situation, could be said to have regained a new lease of life.
As a Yonko-class pirate group that almost retired from the New World stage, except for the lack of a pillar who can replace Whitebeard's position, the overall combat power of the entire fleet is at the standard Emperor-class level.
On the deck of the whale head ship.
Everyone, including Ace and Marco, watched the live broadcast in silence.
"His strength...has become much stronger."
The man in his words was naturally referring to Maud.
I still remember that the last time I played against Mod was more than a year ago.
The Mod at that time, and the Mod in the live broadcast now.
In terms of strength alone, they are by no means on the same level.
That is to say—
In just over a year, Mod refreshed their knowledge with an abnormal speed of becoming stronger.
Ace stared at the live broadcast and silently clenched his fists.
After the war ended, he never relaxed for a moment in order to become stronger.
But even if he awakened his Devil Fruit ability, he still didn't have the confidence to defeat Mod.
But no matter what...
He would personally take back his father's body from Maude!
"Shui Xian Xing Island..."
Ace muttered to himself.
He had no interest at all in the islands Roger had visited and the destinations he had visited.
What he wants now is to regain his father's body and let the world remember the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirates again.
... ...
On the surging sea, there is a large ship made up of dozens of small ships, riding the wind and waves.
This is the ship of the Vinsmoke family, or the country.
The Battle of Wano Country.
