As Dalmecia's order was issued, the three major generals responded one after another, turned quickly, and led their respective naval teams away quickly without any delay.
Dalmecia watched the three major generals go away with calm eyes, then led the first team towards the east entrance of the Bess Block and blocked the last gap.
"The Ghost Hand Pirates... the pirates that gave Dauberman such a headache, this time I can get a good look at them."
As Dalmecia walked, she rubbed her fists, her finger bones made a clicking sound, and a slight grin appeared on her face.
He and Dauberman were in the navy at the same time. Dauberman made more meritorious service than him and became the vice admiral of the navy headquarters before him. However, he is not far away from that position. It will take another year and a half at most. With his With enough merit, he can be transferred back to his headquarters as a lieutenant general.
Naturally, he had heard about the ghost-hand Ross's matter for a long time. He knew very well that the major general of the headquarters, the Ghost Spider, fell into Ross's hands. Therefore, even if Ross's reward was only 92 million Baileys, even if Ross had just Not long after entering the Grand Line from the Western Sea, he would not be careless.
There are a total of four major generals in the base, and he brought out three in total, just to not give Ross any chance and to completely wipe out Ross here!
at this time.
The news that the Navy's goal was to destroy the Ghost Hand Pirates quickly spread throughout the area and expanded to the entire country.
"The Ghost Hand Pirates? A name I've never heard of. Why would the Navy go to such great lengths for an unknown guy?"
Some people frowned at the huge navy.
Someone next to him snorted and said, "Do you think the navy deliberately dispatched such a huge force because it had nothing to do? I have seen the Ghost Hand Pirates in the newspaper. It is said to be the most ferocious pirate group in the West China Sea. Even the fleet led by our major general was defeated by him."
"The Rear Admiral's fleet was defeated? That's a really scary guy..."
This immediately made many people nearby look shocked. Even ordinary civilians knew what kind of military rank a rear admiral in the navy held. That was a general-level officer!
Word spread.
A large number of civilians and nobles evacuated from the Bess neighborhood under the protection of the navy. They had all fled because of the sudden outbreak of street fighting, and it was extremely easy to evacuate.
"The bounty is 92 million Baileys. I didn't expect a pirate of this level to appear here. It's really scary. Fortunately, I didn't run into it..."
"The Vice Admirals have been dispatched. With such a huge force, the Ghost Hand Pirates probably won't be able to survive for long, so there's no need to worry."
Some businessmen and nobles gathered together to discuss.
For them, pirates are naturally the most repulsive existence, especially for a pirate group of this level. Once they target them, they may be robbed and killed.
The navy sent such a huge force, which undoubtedly gave them peace of mind. The scene of thousands of naval soldiers surrounding the entire neighborhood was very shocking. Unless the Ghost Hand Pirates could fly, there would be no chance of breaking out of the siege.
…
Within the Bay Area.
The people here have already evacuated, and the entire neighborhood has become depressing. A large number of marines armed with swords and guns are advancing along the streets, sweeping the area like a carpet.
Major General Asius drew his sword and walked at the front of the team with a solemn look on his face.
"Cheer up! Don't be careless. The pirates we have to deal with this time are not simple things. Even if we have a large force, we may suffer heavy casualties!"
"yes!"
Many navy soldiers responded one after another. Many of them knew about the Ghost Hand Pirates, but walking behind the major general and many school officers, they did not feel much fear in their hearts.
Just as they walked for a while and came to a slightly dark neighborhood, Asius at the front suddenly stopped and stared sharply at a figure in front of him.
"Hoo ho ho, major general? There are still such a huge force..."
"Let's capture him without mercy."
Asius pointed his sword at Lafitte and said coldly, "There are only three official crew members of the Ghost Hand Pirates. Although Lafitte has no reward, his appearance has long been photographed."
Being pointed at by numerous muskets, Lafitte did not show any signs of panic. Instead, he showed a strange smile and said, "What if I say 'NO'?"
"Then...execute on the spot!"
A cold light flashed in Asius's eyes, and Shao was used violently, and the whole person rushed out and rushed towards Lafitte.
If he encounters Ross, he will immediately ask his subordinates to notify Dalmecia and be on guard and delay for time. But when he encounters a guy who doesn't even have a bounty, he doesn't need to be so cautious.
However.
Lafitte's method was somewhat unexpected. When he rushed in front of Lafitte, stabbed out his sword and penetrated Lafitte's body, he realized that what he had stabbed was just a piece of cloth.
"Um?"
Asius was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw Lafitte's figure appearing in the naval camp behind him at some unknown time, spinning the mahogany cane in his hand.
Then, for some unknown reason, a large group of marines picked up their muskets and started killing each other. Some of them even rushed towards him, shouting.
"Damn! What did you do?!"
Asius looked furious. He didn't expect Lafitte to have such a method. He dodged the bullets fired by his soldiers and rushed towards Lafitte.
Lafitte smiled strangely, "Hohoho, it's just a little hypnotic."
…
Lafitte was entangled with the navy led by Asius, while on the other side, Branch Major General Xi Ze met Ross who was standing quietly waiting at the entrance of an alleyway.
The moment he saw Ross, Xi Ze's face showed vigilance and vigilance. While signaling his subordinates to notify Dalmecia, he pulled out two exquisitely crafted muskets and pointed them at Ross.
"You are under arrest, Ghost Hand Ross, don't move...or you will be beaten into a sieve!"
“…”
Ross looked at Xi Ze expressionlessly. If Kizaru was in this position, he might raise his hands in a gesture of surrender, but he always had a calm face and his eyes were unwavering.
Rhodes no longer has much interest in fighting against the rear admiral.
"A senseless threat."
He spoke in a calm and gentle tone, and did not rush over. Instead, he opened his hands and made a two-handed strangulation motion towards the area where Xi Ze and the navy were.
boom!
In an instant, the ground cracked inch by inch under the influence of the distortion fruit, spreading towards the distance. In the area where Xi Ze was, several buildings on both sides collapsed towards the center like rubber under the influence of the distortion force. Come squeezed.
