Chapter 860 Deliberately Downplaying the Odds of Winning

"Not even Qingzhi caught up?" Warring States' expression changed dramatically.

As one of the main combat forces in the past to encircle and suppress Barrett, Warring States knew exactly how troublesome this guy, who was known as the descendant of the devil, was.

Momotu is said to have the ability to be a candidate for admiralship.

Not long ago, he received the Phantom Beast Devil Fruit as a gift from Laxus, and his abilities were fully increased.

However, the opponent he faced this time was Barrett, who was comparable to Pluto Rayleigh.

It is simply not enough to fight against these forces alone.

Thinking of this, Warring States couldn't help but asked: "Huo Shaoshan, you said Qingzhi didn't arrive, what is your current fighting situation?"

"If there is really no way to resist, please remember to save your strength and escape as much as possible. If you can escape, you will be the only one. You must support until Qingzhi arrives."

The expressions of the naval generals present and even Crane changed slightly.

Sengoku's words seemed very spineless and contemptuous of the naval general.

However, this kind of contempt and insult also depends on who the enemy is.

As for Barrett, who is known as the descendant of the devil, he undoubtedly has this qualification.

"Hmph, that guy Qingzhi is really unreliable. I originally thought he could arrive in time, but now that Barrett has taken action, he is still riding his bicycle leisurely." Akainu snorted coldly and said: "Huoshaoshan, you guys Don't worry, if anything goes wrong, Qingzhi will definitely take responsibility, we will contact him immediately and ask Qingzhi to go to support you as soon as possible."

After the words fell, Akainu reached out to catch the phone bug that represented youth.

"No, General Akainu, you misunderstood. General Qingzhi was indeed a little slower, but at the critical moment, Lord Laxus took action to save Lieutenant General Peach Rabbit and us."

"After a separate confrontation with Barrett, which delayed for several minutes, General Qingzhi also arrived in time, and finally frightened away Barrett, the descendant of the devil."

"In this operation to support the fight against Barrett, we only injured seventeen naval soldiers and destroyed three warships. The rest did not suffer much loss."

The hurried words came out from the phone bug, giving people the feeling that they were scrambling to be the first.

The huge meeting hall suddenly fell into deathly silence.

After three or four seconds, Warring States suddenly woke up, grabbed the phone bug, and asked urgently: "Huo Shaoshan, are you sure the report just now is accurate?"

"Just now, Barrett launched a sneak attack on Peach Rabbit in advance. You were all defeated. Qingzhi didn't arrive in time. Did Laxus save you?"

"Now, tell me quickly where Laxus is."

"No, I should say, we must find ways to stop him and don't let him get away again."

"Did he get injured in the battle with Barrett?"

Urgent questions came out of Warring States' mouth one after another.

When it fell in everyone's ears, it became an invisible heavy hammer, hitting the depths of the soul.

Especially Akainu, looking at the burning phone bug, his face was full of disbelief.

If others don't know, how good Barrett is.

However, during the operation to suppress Barrett more than ten years ago, he was young and frivolous, but he personally fought against him.

At that time, Barrett's overwhelming strength was still vivid in Akainu's mind.

However, now Huo Shaoshan told him.

Peach Usagi was not only saved by Barrett, but the person who saved her was Laxus, who had been missing for three months.

Being able to achieve this level, does this mean that the strength has improved again?

"Marshal Warring States, don't worry, everything I just said was vouched for by the four of us and General Qingzhi." Huo Shaoshan explained hurriedly.

"As for the whereabouts of Lord Laxus, Admiral Qingzhi has just made an inquiry. He is preparing to return to the Navy headquarters with the large army to fulfill his bet with Admiral Akainu."

"Is he going to return to the Navy Headquarters?" Warring States was startled for a moment, then laughed and said, "Okay, that boy has really come to his senses."

"However, it seems that we still underestimated him. Not only can he hurt Kaido, he can also compete with Barrett. It seems that in time, he will definitely have a seat in the position of general!"

General's seat?

The expressions of the naval generals present could not help but froze.

However, facing Sengoku's comments, they had no way to refute and could only subconsciously look at Akainu.

The sight that caught his eye was Akainu, whose expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

He never thought that at such a critical moment, he would not be able to wait for a young person, but would instead wait for the guy he least wanted to see.

What's more, Qin Yu was still in Barrett's hands, forcing him to delay enough time to wait for Qingzhi's arrival.

As for the final result, even if Huo Shaoshan didn't tell them, they could have guessed it.

"Okay, Akainu, don't pay too much attention to Laxus's matter." Sengoku calmed down his slightly excited mood and said: "Laxus can return to the Navy Headquarters. This matter cannot be tolerated." Lost, so I hope!”

"Hmph, Marshal of the Warring States Period, I know you want me not to pursue the gambling issue?" Akainu snorted coldly and said, "Don't worry, I know what is enough."

"This time, since he was able to take action in time, he has made a great contribution, so I will not make it difficult for him. As long as he admits defeat in public, I will never mind if he stays at the Navy Headquarters."

Admit defeat in public?

Looking at Akainu, who seemed a little tough as soon as he expressed his stance, Sengoku's expression suddenly turned ugly.

However, before he could speak, the sound of burning mountains sounded again.

"Aka, General Akainu, you may have thought wrong this time."

"Sir Laxus, on his way back to the Navy Headquarters, he received a distress signal from Vice Admiral Peach Rabbit, so he came to the rescue."

"Laxus-dono just mentioned that this time is to fulfill the bet he made with General Akainu three months ago."

"He also threatened that he has a 90% winning rate in this gambling battle."

The low voice echoed in the huge meeting hall.

Warring States' expression froze, and he wished he could raise his hand and slap the phone bug directly, and said: "Huo Shaoshan, you guy, are you just afraid that the world will not be in chaos? Why are you talking about a 90% chance of winning?"

"Akainu, don't worry about it. The same goes for that guy Laxus. He said he has a 90% chance of winning. What's the difference between that and 100%? Go back and ask him if he deliberately lowered his chance of winning. .”

"His statement like this means that you will lose. I will definitely reprimand him next time I see him, otherwise that kid will go crazy."

Looking at Seng Guo who was full of curses and accusations.

The cheek muscles of the generals present could not help but twitch.

Faced with Warring States' pretentiousness, no one could see that his focus was not on Qin Yu's chances of winning, but on finally waiting for that guy to come back.
