Chapter 191: Cook a Pot of Steel Broth

"Fire!"

After the opponent came within shooting range, Harvey, who was in charge of the second line of defense, decisively gave the order to fire.

In an instant, dense artillery fired at the sailing pirate ship.

The cannonballs flew over in dense numbers, as if they were covering the sky and the sun. Under such dense artillery fire, the only result for an ordinary ship would be to be buried in the sea.

But these are elite pirates from the New World. Facing such artillery fire, although it is troublesome, they are not in a situation where they are unable to fight back.

Relying on its own strong strength, it intercepted the dense cannonballs without causing any damage. Except for a few unlucky ones who were hit by cannonballs, the ship was only slightly damaged.

Harvey was not shocked to see the bombardment ineffective.

After all, these are pirates of the new world! With such strength, shouldn’t it be taken for granted?

Those with slightly weaker strength were already sunk by intensive artillery fire on the first line of defense.

"Wolf pack tactics prepared!"

Under the cover of artillery fire, small boats loaded with gunpowder rammed towards the invading pirate ships.

In fact, Moria's original idea was to directly lay down mine arrays and block the entire channel. Wouldn't it be better this way?

However, Moria eventually gave up the idea.

First of all, in this world dominated by navigation, it seems that weapons such as mines have not yet been invented. At the same time, Moria's mission is only to minimize the number of pirates reaching the Capital of Seven Waters, and it does not necessarily mean that they must fight to the death.

Moria himself has only succeeded in preliminary research on weapons such as mines. If they cannot be launched so quickly, he must hide some of his trump cards.

Therefore, Moria still uses this method, using a small boat to ram the pirate ship and detonate the explosives on it, thereby achieving the purpose of destroying the opponent's ship.

Although the method is very old-fashioned in Moria's own opinion, it is indeed very useful.

Contained by heavy artillery fire, these pirates in the New World did not notice the approaching boat. By the time they discovered it, it was already too late.

Small boats filled with explosives were loaded directly onto the pirate ship. In an instant, the explosives began to detonate, directly blowing a large hole in the bottom of the ship. A large amount of seawater began to pour in, and the ship began to tilt.

"Be careful to avoid the ships rushing towards you!"

The pirates who noticed something was wrong shouted loudly.

However, even if something is discovered, Moria can say that he can have as many boats as he wants filled with explosives.

You can build a small boat like this with just a few pieces of wood. The only thing that has a bit of technological content is the explosive contact device.

In fact, this is a different kind of mine device.

Suddenly, densely packed small boats rushed towards this pirate fleet from all directions, leaving it with no way to go.

"Quick, sink those boats!"

"Navigators, please avoid!"

Facing such a large number of explosive boats, these pirates from the New World also panicked.

After all, there is only so much space in this place, and there is no place to hide.

"All artillery, fire!"

Harvey saw the opportunity and ordered the heavy artillery troops to fire on the pirate ships.

"boom!"

Moria spent a lot of money to carefully build a large-caliber long-range cannon and began to roar.

At this time, these pirates from the new world no longer dare to look down on Moria.

You simply don’t regard cannonballs as money!

The shells were like rain, densely packed, shelling from all directions, and the naval artillery fire was not so powerful!

Although this world is a world based on personal strength, it cannot be said that cannonballs are useless.

Especially when hundreds of heavy artillery fire at the same time, the scene is truly spectacular.

Not to mention the power.

It can be said that these pirates have never been bombarded by such fierce artillery fire in their lives.

For a time, the entire sky in Devil's Pass was dyed red by artillery fire. There were explosions everywhere, flames could be seen everywhere, and the wreckage of ships could be seen everywhere.

The pirate ships that entered the second line of defense were complaining endlessly.

Although the artillery fire suffered during the first line of defense was also very fierce, its power was much less than that. At the same time, there were not such a large number of explosive ships.

There is only one large-caliber cannon installed on a ship as the main gun. Even on smaller ships, there are no large-caliber cannons at all. They are usually medium-caliber ones. As a result, when we arrived at Moria, There are no small-caliber cannons, the smallest ones are medium-caliber, and these large-caliber cannons are used as conventional weapons.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

Harvey continued to issue orders and organized heavy artillery units to fire at the pirate fleet.

As the commander of this unit, Harvey was very excited. After all, there were hundreds of heavy artillery!

Just hearing this number is exciting.

He had finally won the command of the heavy artillery unit. If he didn't complete the task well, he would really be failing the captain's trust.

"Fire!"

Harvey simply ignored the pirates on the other side and asked for a one-on-one fight.

The captain is right, you must use your own strengths to attack the other's weaknesses, try to avoid close combat, and use artillery fire to cook a pot of steel broth for the opponent.

"boom!"

One after another, shells exploded, some of them fell directly on the explosive ship, forming a chain reaction in an instant, and a huge explosion formed on the sea.

The scene was shocking.

Everyone was admiring this shocking scene, including the navy soldiers and even Huang Yuan himself.

"It's terrible!"

I don't know who said this in the navy.

Although everyone didn't hear this sentence at all due to the huge sound of artillery fire, they all thought of this sentence in their hearts.

If you think about it in another situation, if you face such artillery fire, you would have been blown to pieces long ago.

For a long time, the navy has always been in an advantageous position in terms of artillery fire when facing pirates, but today, such fierce artillery fire is the first time that these elite navy in the new world have encountered.

Not only the soldiers, but also the navy generals who came with them all had strange expressions. Even the navy admiral Huang Yuan put away his wretched smile and showed a rare solemn expression on his face.

As a navy admiral, no matter how much artillery fire there is, it is impossible to threaten him. However, with such artillery fire, except for a few people in the navy, the rest of the people cannot withstand such power.

Even if he is a vice admiral of the navy, Kizaru does not think he can walk out of here intact.

Among them, there is certainly the advantage of weapons, but under Kizaru's observation Haki, he sees far more than ordinary people.

Compared with the elite navy of the New World, the well-trained soldiers may still be a little bit worse, but these crew members of Moria have already defeated the navy of the Grand Line and the Four Seas.

At the same time, the advanced military command system, precise planning, personnel mobilization, complete logistics, etc., from all aspects, Moria's pirate group is a smaller version of the navy.

It seems that not only Moria as a person is worthy of attention, but the power of the Moria Pirates must also be taken seriously.

Moreover, don't you think this is too much of a fuss?

The highest bounty on the pirate on the opposite side is only 300 million berries, but the value of the shells consumed alone is more than 300 million berries!
