Chapter 926 How Did They Sneak In?

Shanks was led into the hall, where the Five Old Stars gathered together.

"He actually came here during the World Conference."

"Such a thing happened in the Holy Land. In your position, you shouldn't be here."

"We specially made time to see you to give you face. You'd better have something important to do."

A few of them talked to each other, and they showed off their airs.

"That's what I came here for." Shanks didn't waste any time and took out the newspaper he carried with him. "If I'm not mistaken, you are planning to launch a 'war' against the Amber Tour Group next, right?"

Sartan, who had curly hair and a thick beard, asked: "So what? As a pirate now, do you plan to speak for them?"

"No, I'm just here to tell you the truth." Shanks pointed at Heidi's photo and said, "This person is not Artoria Pendragon from the Amber Tour Group, but someone else."

Vochuli, who looked exactly like Gorbachev, asked: "Not her? Do you know what you are talking about?"

Shanks said: "Of course, I have seen her, and she and Artoria appeared one after the other. Although they look almost the same, their temperaments are completely different."

"Since they appear one after the other, how do you know they are not two styles of the same person?" Nasushiro, a bald warrior wearing glasses, said, "Things like temperament can be easily changed."

"I have confidence in my judgment. And if it was really the Amber Tour Group, why did she appear alone?" Shanks said, "This may be someone deliberately pretending to be Artoria, causing you and The war between them."

Pitt, who looked like Lincoln, asked: "Assuming what you say is true, what do you think we should do?"

"Imitate the way Fisher Tiger handled it, and only offer a reward for the capture of this person who looks exactly like Artoria. As for the Amber Tour Group, we will wait until the investigation is clear."

Shanks said, "Frankly speaking, they are capable of defeating my pirate group and the Beast Pirates. I think you should know what it means to go to war with them."

Maz, who had long hair and three strands of beard, snorted coldly: "Huh, pay attention to your attitude. The World Government will not be afraid of going to war with anyone."

Shanks didn't want to argue with them about such inconsequential matters, so he followed him and said, "I understand this, but it would be too unworthy to start a war just because of a misunderstanding."

"Don't be too naive, red-haired." Sartan said, "The similarity is so great that even if she is not Arturia herself, she must be related to her."

"Akainu and Kizaru teamed up to deal with her and were injured. How many people can have this kind of power and swordsmanship in the world? How could one appear out of nowhere and be similar to that person but not related at all?"

"..." Shanks was also puzzled as to why such a person suddenly appeared.

He once suspected that it was Vegapunk's handiwork. After all, Vegapunk had created a clone for himself, but when he first asked Vegapunk to confirm it, he was denied.

Think about it, if Vegapunk really had the ability to create someone as powerful as Artoria at will, then the world would have been completely chaotic or completely calm.

Vuqiuli said: "More importantly, the severity of this incident is unprecedented. Redhead, you must have seen the tragic situation in the Holy Land. What do you think?"

"..." Shanks was silent for a moment and said, "It's more serious than what was reported in the newspaper, and even more serious than I imagined."

Warqiuli's face was gloomy: "Let me tell you, in just one night, more than one-third of the Heavenly Dragons in the Holy Land died, and more than half of them were burned by fire, injured by collapsed buildings, and even injured by battles!"

"They...came here with the determination to completely eliminate the Tianlong people!"

"...!!!" Shanks showed a shocked expression. The newspaper said 'heavy casualties', and he had tried his best to guess in the direction of seriousness.

For example, a dozen or even dozens of people died. Unexpectedly...

Shanks asked: "What happened last night? How did those ten thousand people sneak into the Holy Land without anyone noticing?"

The Five Old Stars exchanged glances and felt that they could tell Shanks the truth and explain clearly the dangers of the Amber Tour Group, which might win him over.

Several people nodded: "It doesn't hurt to tell you."

Ever since Fisher Tiger climbed the Red Continent with bare hands, set fire to the Holy Land, and rescued slaves six years ago, Mary Joa had strengthened her defenses.

The Navy Headquarters stationed not far below the Holy Land and the G-1 Fortress on the other side have also greatly increased their vigilance.

For a year or two after that, Marigio's safety factor was undoubtedly the highest.

It's just that there are only a thousand days of being a thief, and there is no day to guard against thieves. Nothing happened in the Holy Land for many years, so the guards gradually forgot about what happened at the beginning, thinking that it was just an exception and there would be no more newcomers.

Therefore, although various security guards still stand guard, patrol, and change shifts according to regulations, they are no longer as vigilant as before.

Moreover, during the World Conference, not only were there guards of the Holy Land, but also the navy would share part of the defense work, so the guards became even more lax.

During these seven days, there were two weakest moments in Mariejoia's defense. One was when the kings had just arrived and the strict security inspection was temporarily over.

However, due to the presence of the kings, there were more people to protect and guard against, and the vigilance was slightly strengthened after the meeting began.

The second moment was when the World Conference had just ended and the navy escorted the kings away.

Heida chose to lead the raid when the guards thought that the tense World Conference had ended and they could relax.

Once the war started, the guards were caught off guard.

As for the way these people sneaked into the holy land, the Five Elders did not figure it out at first, until they got Wapol's information and found a passage near Mary Geoise.

——Although it is a bit unbelievable, the tunnel was "eaten" by Wapol using the ability of the Swallow Swallow Fruit!

The entire tunnel goes straight from the sea to the top of the 10,000-meter-high Red Earth Continent, with a slope of about 30 degrees, which means it is 20,000 meters long!

Some professionals have analyzed the soil, moisture, saliva, hair and other residues at the entrance and exit of the tunnel, and concluded that the construction period of this tunnel is about 20 days.

Wapol had to chew out a thousand-meter passage every day...

Only the pirates who participated in that operation knew that Wapol not only chewed out a thousand-meter passage every day, but also swallowed up all the soil.

Wapol refused at first, but the black and red-patterned sword was too scary.
