The churning on the sea had just ended when the landmass in the sky descended directly down.
The arriving pirates were completely plunged into despair.
Some of them were lucky, and some were skilled enough to escape the ever-swirling whirlpool at sea. But just when they had barely survived, an even bigger disaster struck!
"There's no escaping it now..."
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"
Most of the pirates in the large fleet had completely changed their expressions.
"Hey, don't be scared!"
On the ship where the Giant Warrior Pirates were located, Dorry laughed loudly at his surroundings, then looked up and said, "Although the thing is terrifying, we're not helpless. Come on, everyone, let's unleash our power and not let the Navy look down on us!"
Brogy raised his axe and laughed heartily, "Bang bang bang bang bang! Witness the power of the Giant Warrior Pirates!"
The giants on the ship all raised their weapons upwards in unison.
"Tch, this kind of thing..."
Beckman gripped the barrel, using the spear as a melee weapon, and said to the people on the ship, "Let's show them the power of the Red-Haired Pirates!"
"Oh!!" The pirates on the ship shouted in response. Their heroic spirit shook the despairing pirates. In an instant, all the pirates in the fleet raised their weapons upwards, their domineering aura covering them, as if they wanted to split the sky apart.
"Why not just obediently let me screen you? Why do this kind of thing? *smile*"
Kuro said to the people below, "Let's add a little something."
Yi Xiao slowly stood up, gripping the staff with his left hand and placing his right hand on the hilt of the staff-sword at the front.
"I see. This solution certainly doesn't require too many naval personnel. I'll lend a hand in this endeavor..."
Click...
A section of the staff-sword was pulled out, revealing a bright blade. A purple halo erupted from his body, and he flew directly upwards, landing on the continent where he had descended.
Boom!
A dark line appeared on the edge of the continent above the plaza, and the descent speed was significantly faster. The intense wind pressure even lowered the sea level, and some pirate ships' sails were even broken by the wind pressure.
"Damn it! This thing..."
Now, even the mighty Giant Warrior Pirates sensed that something was amiss.
If the speed and weight of the landmass increasing significantly upon landing... it could be devastating!
"In that case..."
Donley thought for a moment and said, "Hey, Brogy, I have a good idea!"
He turned his longsword around and aimed it at the sea behind him.
"Ah...is that really feasible? Never mind, never mind!" Brogy aimed his axe behind him. "Men, follow me..."
The giants watched their movements and uniformly turned their weapons around.
"A hegemonic nation!!!"
A massive shockwave shot out from the Giant Warrior Pirates' direction, creating a powerful gust of wind that significantly increased the speed of the pirate ships. Several of the pirate ships, which were already close to the shore, were propelled directly ashore by the force of the wind and quickly landed on the plaza.
But that's still not enough; there are still many people on the high seas...
Is it too late?
Whew!!
The raging wind suddenly intensified, filling the rear of the pirate ship and propelling them forward rapidly.
Where did the wind come from?
"It's all done, it's all done. This has been driving this old man crazy."
An island appeared above the plaza and began to descend. On the island, an old man wiped away sweat. "Luckily, we have this wind to propel us, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to create this weather. This continent is terrifying!"
"Ah! Grandpa Hareda!"
Nami, aboard the Sunny, exclaimed in surprise, "Did you do this?!"
The little old man, dressed like a magician, gave a thumbs up. "Nami, we old men are useful too!"
Under the fierce winds, a large number of pirate ships approached the shore.
"Friends!!"
Luffy shouted, "We're going to land!!"
"Leave it to me!"
Franky roared, slamming his fists together, "Super!! Franky!!"
boom!
The Sunny's hull swung with a force from below, lifting the ship off and crashing into the plaza. The Straw Hat crew then jumped down and stood in the plaza alongside the pirates who had quickly landed.
At that moment, the continent landed directly, covering the sea and crushing the pirates who couldn't land in time.
Boom!!!
A vast continent stretches directly from the plaza, and from this side, it seems to have almost no end.
"Everyone..."
Luffy turned his head, pursed his lips, then took a deep breath and glared at the people in front of him. Around them, the Sky Islanders, the Fishmen who had just landed, the Mink Tribe, the Giants, the magicians who controlled the weather, the experts from the Long-Armed Tribe, the Long-Legged Tribe, and the Long-Necked Tribe, the Whitebeard Pirates who had already reached the shore, and the remaining officers of the Red-Haired Pirates led by Ben Beckman, had all arrived at the plaza.
"Incense Burner, I will definitely defeat you!!" Luffy shouted.
"oh?"
On the execution platform, Kuro shook his head: "They were all experts. Oh well, at least we've taken care of the underlings..."
He sensed it; these pirates who could reach them were all powerful figures, at least at the level of a standard Marine Headquarters lieutenant commander. Although their strength varied, their numbers far exceeded those deployed by Kuro...
Roughly speaking, there are around 10,000 people.
Compared to the two thousand people Kuro himself gathered, they were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
But sometimes numbers aren't enough. For the sake of this war, Kuro originally intended to strike first, and the Navy's elites would only hinder him from striking too much. He could fully display his combat power, and similarly, they could also display their combat power without any scruples. Compared to the Marineford War, they had a much greater degree of freedom.
The number of people doesn't represent the whole picture; otherwise, Kaido wouldn't have thought of creating SMILE to enhance his pirate crew's strength, and Big Mom wouldn't have thought of the gigantification experiment.
"Thank you all for your hard work."
Kuro exhaled a puff of smoke, looked down at the people who had arrived at the plaza, and said softly, "As a reward for your successful arrival at the plaza, I am about to offer you your... destined death!"
He paused for a moment, then suddenly roared, "Let's start the war!!!"
"action!"
Without saying a word, Smoker grasped the Ten Hands, which turned into smoke, and charged forward.
Tina casually picked up a cannon launcher lying on the ground, and with the activation of her ability, a huge black gun was fired.
The remaining sailors each found their own direction, drew their weapons, and charged forward.
Meanwhile, the pirates over there also acted swiftly, and amidst the surging crowd, they rushed towards the Navy.
The battle has begun!
