Chapter 369 The Navy Is Coming
"Ushikimaru?!"
Kozuki Oden's pupils trembled, and he looked away from the long sword in his hand.
This sword was his former sword Enma, which was left behind in Wano when he failed more than ten years ago. Unexpectedly, now it is back in my hands.
Soon after, he recognized Ushikimaru's true identity.
"Are you Shigetsu Usumaru's partner fox?"
Kozuki Oden said in shock.
Ushikimaru didn't make a sound, but nodded excitedly.
Then, his body flickered and transformed into a white fox.
The next thing was simple. Under the leadership of Ushikimaru, the samurai obtained a large number of swords and had their own weapons.
Although they were still in ragged clothes and looked ordinary in appearance, just like farmers in the fields, when they held the knife, their spirit was completely different.
Xia Le left all matters concerning the samurai to Kozuki Oden.
In the next three days, the navy received help from civilians in Jiuli, and food and medicine resources were replenished to a certain extent, which relieved their previous pressure.
In Kozuki Oden's daimyo mansion, new samurai and ninjas join the team every day.
Some of these ninjas and samurai are former ministers of the Kozuki family, and some are people who want to take this opportunity to overthrow the rule of Black Carbon Orochi and drive away Kaido.
A large number of troops are gathering, and preparations for war are in full swing.
"We don't have time to waste, so entering the ghost island as quickly as possible and fighting Kaido to the death is the best choice."
"Wano's material resources are concentrated in the Flower Capital. Jiuli is extremely barren, and the villagers are living a hard life. They can only provide us with two days of food supply and a small amount of medicine."
"This is the toughest battle I have fought since I joined the Navy."
"There is no way, this time we are fighting across the sea, and we are facing the most powerful Kaido and Big Mom Pirates."
In the temporary operations hall, in front of Xia Le, the chatter of a group of lieutenant generals could be heard.
The Navy has gathered a large number of mid-to-high-end combat forces in this battle, so it will naturally conduct a lot of deductions, speculations, and inspections on the battle to examine its own shortcomings.
To put it simply, the navy cannot afford to spend any money when facing the two Yonko forces this time.
Therefore, Xia Le just made the decision to launch a general offensive three days later.
This may seem like an impulsive and unstable decision, but in fact it is the best choice. Solve this war as quickly as possible to avoid the futile consumption of the navy in Wano.
Winning a Kuri is not something to be happy about, because the material resources of Wano Country are concentrated in the Flower Capital and are still controlled by the black charcoal snake, Kaido.
As the day passed, in the operations hall, the lieutenant generals continued to conduct pre-war deductions, and fought in the sandbox based on the map information provided by everyone in Wano.
Xia Le crossed his arms and stared at the sand table quietly, listening to their heated discussion.
"It is not advisable to attack from the front!"
"Ghost Island is surrounded by the sea. Its terrain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is extremely disadvantageous for attackers."
"This battle is simply a replica of the battle at the top, and we are on Whitebeard's side this time!"
"Preventing injuries to grassroots soldiers and officers should be the first element of this operation."
"They must have set up a dragnet around Ghost Island and fired a lot of artillery fire. Maybe we can use the method Whitebeard used to enter the battlefield and directly enter the opponent's enemy camp?"
"No! We have an air fleet. It is a good choice to use them to enter first and attract the enemy's attention."
"······"
The lieutenant generals constantly put forward opinions and had spiritual collisions.
After the second day, the warriors had assembled and were doing pre-battle training.
The formation of the warrior phalanx, wielding swords at the same time, looked spectacular. Kozuki Oden stood on the high platform and looked down, with a solemn expression.
He was under great pressure, and even with Xia Le's help, he was still nervous.
This battle is of great significance to him and the country of Wano.
Once victorious, the country of Wano will return to its once peaceful appearance, and will also be able to take this opportunity to found a country, strengthen its ties with the outside world, and even become more prosperous.
But if it fails!
Not only would it be the end for him and the samurai, but the navy would also be decimated.
The results would be catastrophic even for the world.
Time flies and the third day has passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, a large number of densely packed warships were moored at Jiuli's port, and their dark gun barrels reflected a gloomy light in the sun.
At the port, dense crowds of figures were calmly and orderly boarding the warship.
There was an iron-blooded, cold, and tense atmosphere in the air.
This atmosphere made the samurai nervous and their throats rolled.
"Navy?"
"What a force that can fight a hundred battles! The aura revealed in the calmness makes people feel that their hearts are being clenched."
"With such a huge fleet, even if the enemy is Kaido, it's probably nothing more than this."
"Is this our ally?"
The warriors marveled in their hearts and were shocked by the order and discipline of the navy.
Never before had they seen such a calm, obedient army.
"Is our ship ready?"
Kozuki Oden stood in front and shouted in a deep voice.
"no problem!"
"Although the warships of the allied navies are inferior in appearance, their speed is not inferior at all."
"You know, our people have not done nothing in the past ten years."
Kozuki Sukiyaki took a breath and said excitedly.
Kozuki Oden nodded.
Many samurai and retainers loyal to the Kozuki clan are silently preparing for the future war. This is not only reflected in Ushikimaru's sword, but also in the ships that enter Onigashima.
As time passed, the densely packed and huge fleet in front was already filled with naval forces.
This also means that it is time for the warriors to board the ship.
"Get aboard!"
"Go to Onigashima!"
"Samurai, it's our turn to appear!"
Kozuki Oden shouted.
"yes!!!"
The warriors shouted.
Immediately afterwards, figures with nervous faces and firm eyes, who looked like farmers but whose auras were as sharp as blades, quickly boarded the ship.
The flag was unfolded, which was the family emblem of the Koyue clan. It was shaking in the strong wind, like a divine bird spreading its wings and roaring to the sky.
"It's like a dream!"
"For more than ten years, I have been preparing for the arrival of this scene all the time."
"Are we really going to attack Kaido?"
When the ship started and the wind blew over their heads, many warriors murmured with tears in their eyes.
They are not sentimental, but they have been looking forward to this moment for too long.
"The war has just begun!"
"Now is not the time for you to be sentimental!"
"Contain all emotions and wait for the moment when we defeat Kaido and pick up the fruits of victory, and then feel emotional, excited and excited!"
Kozuki Oden noticed everyone's emotions and said in a deep voice.
In an instant, the warriors woke up, their eyes became firm, and they clenched the long swords in their hands.
Soon, the channel ahead became narrow, and the large-scale fleet quickly changed its formation. In just a few minutes, looking down from the sky, it looked like a long dragon wandering in the river.
The fleet was long and spectacular.
The inner islands of Wano are surrounded by rivers formed by sea currents.
In the following time, this huge fleet was seen by many people.
"Who are they??"
"Wait a minute, if I'm not mistaken, that's the crest of the Kozuki family, right?"
"Is Guangyue back?"
"So, this is the fleet to attack Kaido!!"
Shock, horror, excitement, and excitement soon filled the hearts of everyone in Wano Country.
"The country of Wano is about to change!"
At this moment, both the common people and the powerful were shocked in their hearts.
The return of the former Kozuki family, what this foreshadows is already extremely obvious. Moreover, the other party also brought such a large fleet.
"Boom!"
Over the ghost island, there was lightning and thunder, and the wind was howling.
The gloomy atmosphere was extremely oppressive and enveloped the entire island.
“Hey, rub, rub, rub, rub~~”
"Has the Navy already taken action? And those clowns from the Kozuki family?"
"It looks like we can have a good fight!"
Weird laughter rang out, and Kaido sneered.
He turned his eyes and looked at the men beside him: "Are you all ready?"
"Everything is ready!"
"We have deployed a large number of weapons in the passage into Ghost Island."
"In addition, Master Quinn's virus weapons have also been arranged."
"It will definitely give the navy a surprise!"
The pirate said excitedly.
Hearing this, Kaido also showed a smile on his face: "Very good, let the navy know how powerful our Kaido Pirates are."
"How's Lingling doing over there?"
The pirate quickly replied: "Lord Bigum is eating today's chocolate dessert, and the other ministers, generals, are ready for battle."
Kaido nodded.
Then, he looked at the location of Onigashima Port and narrowed his eyes slightly.
We are fully prepared, and now is the time to see the strength of the navy.
"Boom~~"
On this day, lightning over Onigashima continued to pierce the sky, and dark clouds gathered overhead, making everyone feel extremely depressed and heavy.
They didn't know what the two Yonko-level experts were thinking, but ordinary pirates were under great pressure.
The Navy is so powerful now!
Five generals, plus an invincible marshal, this is unimaginable power.
Not to mention, the most terrifying thing about the navy is the number of grassroots soldiers scattered around the world, as numerous as ants.
The Navy is the military organization with the largest number of troops!
This is unmatched by any pirate party.
The wind howled and lightning flashed across the clouds.
All around the ghost island were densely packed with human figures. The pirates wearing various animal-shaped helmets were quietly swallowing their saliva and staring at the port ahead.
"Navy, where will it come from?"
As time passed, the clouds in the sky seemed to become darker and darker.
Thick lightning fell from the clouds, as if a giant was throwing a rope, and it fell around the ghost island.
"Hulu~Hulu~"
Big Mom's heavy snoring sounded extremely clear in the quiet ghost island.
Not far away, Kaido was sitting cross-legged on the ground with cold eyes, a mace stuck in the ground beside him, and his aura was as majestic as a mountain.
Everyone is waiting!
At the same time, in Onigashima Prison.
"The atmosphere has changed!"
"What's going on outside?"
"The banquet celebrations that lasted for several days suddenly stopped, which made people feel a nervous atmosphere."
"It's just like a war is coming!"
Warring States looked solemn and said in a deep voice.
Garp sat there, also looking puzzled.
"Hey, what's going on outside? Why is it so quiet today?"
Soon, Belumeb, who was not far away, loudly asked the pirate standing in front who seemed a little dull and nervous.
Hearing this, the pirate turned around slowly, uncharacteristically.
His forehead was covered with sweat, his face was pale, and he looked a little dazed.
"Navy, here we come!"
Words like whispers came from his mouth.
It also caused the expressions of the SWORD team, who were currently in the cage, to change.
"What? You said the navy is coming?"
"How could they come so fast?"
Warring States asked loudly.
But the pirate turned around blankly and did not answer his question.
"It seems that the headquarters has learned about our arrest."
"That's why we sent an outpost to try to get us out."
"This boy Xia Le, alas!"
"Don't you know how to be patient?"
Garp sighed.
When Warring States heard these words, he frowned.
On the surface it sounds fine, but if you chew it carefully you will notice something is wrong.
He raised his head and looked at the pirate who had his back turned to them, as if he was in an abnormal state.
"If it's just an outpost force, it can't make the Kaido Pirates look like this."
I didn't pay attention to it before, but if I look at it now, the pirates here seem to be in an extremely nervous mood.
He had only seen this look in the navy on the eve of the Battle of Dingding.
For a moment, it was as if a flash of lightning flashed across Zeng Guo's mind, and his whole body was agitated.
He raised his head blankly and looked at the crane opposite.
The other person also had a horrified look on his face. When he saw his gaze, he nodded.
Obviously, both of them had something in mind.
"Xia Le, that boy!!"
"Literally, a war was started!!!"
Warring States was horrified in his heart, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.
He was shocked by the young man's courage, and felt tense all over by the other party's decisiveness.
"Boom!"
There seemed to be more lightning in the sky of Ghost Island, and the light in the void became a little less dark. It was clearly daytime, but it seemed like it was twilight.
"Stab it!"
Blue arcs of electricity suddenly struck, forming shapes like branches and branches.
The pirates looked up and felt that the thunder and lightning over Onigashima today was a little unusual.
"Stab~"
Another bolt of lightning flashed across, the light was so dazzling that many people couldn't help but close their eyes.
The lightning dissipated.
The pirates opened their eyes again, but when they saw the sky at this moment, they gasped in horror.
"Sea! Sea! Navy!!!"
"The Navy is coming!!"
I saw in the sky ahead, under the clouds, the tails of lightning, warships one after another, suddenly appeared.
The next second.
"A large fleet of the navy was discovered at the main entrance of the port!!"
"West of Onigashima, the navy is coming!"
"There is also a navy in the east, a huge number!"
"Enemies have been discovered in the south and north!"
"Kai, Captain Kaido, we are surrounded by the navy!"
The screams of fear spread throughout the ghost island almost instantly.
All the pirates looked at the stationed points ahead and could almost see the navy's fleet.
They were actually surrounded by the navy! !
