The residents and tourists of Dressrosa witnessed for the first time the ultra-century war method that the Navy recently advocated.
Within range is justice!
Covered by artillery fire is peace!
Just like Ron's emotion when the airship force appeared, the navy that has mastered air superiority is far from a threat that can be compared with the top combat forces in the past.
The starting point for Earth's war to develop into a beyond-visual-range mode is not to reduce casualties, but simply because this mode is more suitable for interpreting "war".
In the One Piece world, due to the sky-breaking personal strength and the inconvenience of transportation in the vast sea area, the understanding of war is still limited to soldiers versus soldiers and generals. It is believed that as long as the top combat power takes action to solve the opponent's masters, the war will be one-sided.
This is indeed the case, the purpose of both is to kill the enemy.
But when weapons can not only do the same thing, but even do it better... then the previous war model is not so applicable.
Zizzi... boom! !
Above the sky, clouds flashed with lightning.
The electric light penetrated the clouds at a speed that was slow when viewed from a distance and extremely fast when viewed up close, and soon revealed its true identity in front of everyone. Behind every cloud layer flashing with electric light, there suddenly appeared a ball of high-voltage current that was thrown out of the cone-shaped flame particle layer due to the speed!
A layer of light rain seemed to fall from the sky, covering the entire location of the Union Army!
"what is that?!"
"Flying whale?!"
"It's a Navy airship!! I remember, that Lieutenant General Ron is the commander of the airship unit!"
In Dressrosa, countless people looked up at the sky, casting horror and fear at the huge shadow hidden behind the clouds.
The light rain falling from the sky has subverted people's imagination of war. Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you know what it is capable of, such a terrifying weapon of war.
However, the problem arises...
"That's weird! Who is the navy at war with?"
"Huh? Yes, are there enemies at sea?"
The residents looked around blankly. Although they saw the navy firing, they saw no enemy.
Due to the towering rock formations surrounding the country, many people in Dressrosa were unaware that there were enemies on the sea.
Doflamingo did a good job in this regard, and the Don Quixote family soldiers took over the defense of the entire country, keeping the war away from Dressrosa for a long, long time.
"Wait! I think I saw something!"
One person climbed up to a high place and looked around. Suddenly his expression was startled and he said tremblingly.
"It's pirates... so many pirates!!!"
"Nani?!"
"Have pirates invaded?"
"Go and notify King Doflamingo! There are pirates invading!"
There was chaos all around. They liked watching the performances in the Colosseum, but they didn't like that they would one day shed blood.
"No... I'm afraid that won't be necessary."
The person who spoke first swallowed hard and felt chilled all over.
"It's... too late."
"What? Is it too late?!"
"Quick, let the children and women hide! Men pick up weapons and prepare to fight!"
When the people around him heard this, they became even more frightened and dispersed in the blink of an eye. By the time the man himself felt that the sentence was ambiguous and wanted to explain, there was no one around.
If it’s too late, there’s no need to notify the king!
…
Standing on the King's Heights, Doflamingo could clearly see that the fleet, which was like moving land, seemed to be still, covered by the light rain falling from the sky.
The fire took over the sight, and the sky lit up with dazzling rays of light that were no weaker than the sun! The endless brilliance engulfed the pirate ships one after another, and the calm sea surface rolled up huge waves, which dispersed violently in all directions!
The distance was too far, so he didn't feel much vibration. He only saw the dazzling light falling and the pirate ships burning into huge fires!
The strength and ferocity that the pirates relied on for their livelihood were completely dissipated under the cold and hot ball of light. It was as if an invisible hand was erasing the ugly and dark pirate ship with a paintbrush stained with white, blue, and red.
After the storm, less than one tenth of the ships can continue to float on the sea!
And this is just the destruction caused by a round of concentrated fire!
"Come on! Don't let them escape!"
"Catch them if you can, and kill them if you can't!"
At this time, the Qilin arrived just in time and met the enemy in battle, which became the last straw that broke the camel's back. The coalition forces, who were already dizzy due to the blanket bombing, began to flee one after another as if they were sheep entering a flock of hungry wolves when faced with the vicious Kirin.
Of course, before that, the artillery plasma cannons on the Kirin fired thousands of cannons, inflicting an inhumane last-ditch attack on the opponent's surviving broken ship.
boom!
boom!
Every time it is launched, the entire pirate ship will completely disintegrate! Plasma cannons destroy ships easily, and their huge destructive power was fully demonstrated in this encounter!
The plasma cannon installed on the war beast is different from the plasma cannon used by the airship force. The main attack target of the airship force is at the sea level, and there is a distance limit from the sky, so it pays more attention to the range.
While the plasma cannon on the war beast is mainly used for close dog fights, Vegapunk uses a layer of heat-resistant slime synthesized from a special material to stick countless destructive shrapnel, which explodes like a super-large shotgun handle. Metal pellets are sprinkled on the enemy, making them more lethal.
Horrible and cold!
The beauty of war and killing is vividly displayed!
At this moment, everyone understood the reason why the Kirin accelerated in advance. If the movement was slower, the pirates gathered their emotions and fled, and the Kirin would not be able to catch up with everyone.
"Such a weapon!!!"
Doflamingo was stunned and clenched his fists unconsciously.
"That's a weapon made from my Thunder Fruit. How about it? It's pretty powerful, isn't it?"
Ron laughed and shook off the cigarette ashes, watching them float over Dressrosa and disappear.
The world of One Piece is really full of black technology. It seems that with Devil Fruit, everything is not a problem.
Plasma cannons and electromagnetic guns that obviously span hundreds of years and are impossible to manufacture with current technology, all the problems were completely solved just by studying the blood factors in his blood.
"Yes... yes!!"
Doflamingo's expression became even more ugly. He realized that in just one or two years, the world had become somewhat incomprehensible to him.
He has always been confident in his own arms, because he once used his Celestial Dragon privileges to rob the design drawings of a military factory in the Navy, and privately manufactured cutting-edge arms that were only supplied to the Navy, believing that he was not inferior to others.
However, the plasma cannons and airships that appeared today... and the magical cannon he saw at the G10 branch all made the weapons he was confident in before seem useless.
Doflamingo finally understood why the navy had been moving more and more frequently in the past two years. The reason is simply because their strength has been turned upside down!
After a moment of silence, Doflamingo said pointedly.
"With this kind of weapon, your navy's goal may not be as simple as the first half, right?"
"That's right!"
Ron nodded and said straightforwardly: "The construction of war airships has begun with all efforts after the Five Old Stars nodded. It will only take up to half a year to cover the first half of the G-series branch. From then on, the whole world and even the new world will gradually be equipped with airships and plasma cannons."
"In addition, there is the problem of pacifists and lightning stimulation equipment to make up for the lack of high-end combat power..."
Speaking of this, Ron raised his eyebrows.
"I think you pirates really have nothing to play with anymore... Even if ancient weapons don't come out, we can still end this era of great pirates with our skyrocketing military strength."
"Roger is lucky, isn't he? He didn't live in the same era as me. But you are more unlucky..."
"you!!"
Doflamingo gritted his teeth secretly and without saying a word, turned and walked towards Dressrosa Palace, which looked more like a villa resort than a palace.
Ron watched him walk away, taking off the cigar from his mouth, murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
"So... what's next?"
"If it's still this little trick, don't blame me for killing that little girl... so that you can't even be a king!"
