Chapter 178 This Demon Slayer Order Is Somewhat Tainted with Personal Grudges!
The huge hull of the Queen Anne's Revenge was like a moving castle, crashing fiercely into the port and instantly sinking a small boat next to it.
Xiao was wearing a classic captain's coat, a captain's hat, and a black single-sided eye mask on his face. He held a sharp scimitar in his hand, stood steadily on the bow, and shouted majestically: "Brothers, release your inner greed! Grab all the valuable things!"
"OHOHOHOH~~~~~~~"
A group of pirates immediately became excited when they heard the sound, and they made a deafening wolf howl and rushed to Banaro Island like hungry tigers.
They began to kill wantonly on the island and looted all valuable property.
But Banaro Island is not easy to mess with. It is a famous cowboy town on the Grand Line!
There are many skilled musketeers and pirate hunters who terrify pirates.
The navy even specially set up a gold exchange here to receive the captured pirates at any time.
For these people, many pirates who came rashly were simply walking into a trap and offering money to their door!
Just when they were worried about not having money to buy wine, money came to their door automatically.
Unfortunately, they encountered a tough opponent today. This was the first time that the Blackbeard Pirates made a brilliant appearance like the world, and they were naturally well prepared.
The existence of the Blackbeard Pirates was a dimensionality reduction attack on the first half of the Grand Line, which was very powerful!
Almost all members of the Sky Island Divine Soldiers, who could use the domineering power, held the Slashing Shell in their hands, and a casual wave was an extremely sharp slash. Anyone who was hit would either die or be disabled.
As for the bullets fired by the musketeers, in the eyes of the opponents with the domineering power of observation, they were no different from children's toys and could not hit the target at all.
Then, the Divine Soldiers "Dashan", the four great priests and other masters also took action one after another.
Finally, even Lafayette and others couldn't hold back and joined the battle.
Lafayette and Poison Q began to try to use the devil fruit abilities they had just obtained. The virus and magic sound were both large-scale killings. The people on the island were either terminally ill or began to kill each other. The whole island was shrouded in chaos.
And the fighting champion, Badgers, rushed to the Navy Gold Exchange without hesitation, aiming at the huge treasure stored there. If you don't prepare enough money in a place like a gold exchange, wouldn't it be a waste of your reputation?
Xiao strolled leisurely in the town, wandering around as he pleased.
He had a sharp eye, and whenever he saw something he liked, he would go up and take it away without hesitation.
This island called Banaro has become quite prosperous because of the presence of pirate hunters and musketeers. The island not only has a variety of mouth-watering snacks and delicacies, but also many interesting entertainment activities.
After tasting several authentic delicacies, Xiao nodded slightly, expressing his satisfaction: "Don't kill the chefs and their families!"
At this moment, only Van Oka stayed alone on the ship, standing quietly on the observation tower.
With his powerful observation Haki, he had a panoramic view of the situation on the entire island. Whenever he found any omissions or flaws on his side, he would decisively shoot and kill the enemy.
……
……
After successfully conquering Banaro Island, Xiao and his companions decided to set up camp here for the time being.
The entire island contains extremely rich resources, enough to meet the needs of the entire pirate group for long-term survival.
So, Xiao stayed here for nearly a month.
During this period, the Straw Hat Pirates, who had disappeared for more than a month, reappeared in the Seven Waters City and attacked the mayor of the Seven Waters City. They also made a big fuss in the shipyard and injured many ship workers.
Then, Luffy led his crew to capture Judicial Island and set fire to the flag symbolizing the authority of the World Government.
Faced with such provocative behavior, Judicial Island finally launched the Demon Slayer Order, but ultimately failed to catch the Straw Hat Pirates, who successfully escaped.
This is really a mess! This is a slap in the face of the World Government.
First, the Black Sun Cult dared to kill the Celestial Dragons, and then the Straw Hat Pirates openly attacked Judicial Island. What's more shocking is that they were able to successfully escape under the pursuit of the Demon Slayer Order.
You know, the Demon Slayer Order is a terrifying force composed of 10 powerful warships, 10 powerful vice admirals, and tens of thousands of elite marines!
With such a luxurious lineup, it is no problem to raze the entire Judicial Island to the ground, but the Straw Hat Pirates just slipped away.
Almost all the navy members who participated in the Demon Slayer Order were punished by the World Government. Not only were they demoted by half a level, but their salaries were also cut in half for one year.
But the reason for this result is actually very simple, that is, Luffy is the grandson of the navy hero Garp, and the navy vice admirals have more or less received favors from Garp.
Therefore, after the navy launched the Demon Slayer Order, they were submissive to the Straw Hat Pirates, but they hit the Judicial Island hard.
This wave? This wave is actually about human relationships, you just learn to bou.
After the Judicial Island, all the Straw Hat Pirates became bounties, and Blackbeard and his group were so jealous when they read the latest newspaper.
This group of navy members didn't act anymore, they just came openly, bombarded the Judicial Island, razed the Judicial Island to the ground, but they just bombarded the Straw Hat Pirates.
Knowing that the Straw Hat Pirates were not far away in the Seven Waters, hey, they just couldn't see them, just playing~
If the vice admirals fight for human relationships, then why do the other lieutenants not care about it, but instead target the Judicial Island? In fact, there is a bit of personal grudge in this.
The Celestial Dragons divide the power of the World Government into three parts: political power, military power, and judicial power.
Among them, the political power is independent, and they are only responsible for ruling the Red Earth Continent, and basically do not ask about the affairs of the lower world.
As maritime departments, the Navy and the Judicial Island are two major departments that are independent and mutually restrained on the surface.
However, in fact, the Judicial Island is born to suppress the Navy, because the Navy only has the power of law enforcement, but not the power of trial, which belongs to the Judicial Island.
What's worse is that the Judicial Island often does not do human affairs, but thinks about making money all day long. When dealing with nobles and wealthy businessmen, they always try to be lenient or even pardon their crimes, but always hit the poor navy and untouchables with heavy punches.
Many times, the navy is judged guilty just because of some trivial things, which directly leads to a considerable number of talented and impatient navy officers and soldiers choosing to rebel and devote themselves to pirate careers.
Therefore, when the Navy launched the Demon Slaying Order to bombard Judicial Island, they were so happy that they didn't even have time to care about the Straw Hat Pirates.
