Chapter 249: Cut, bloody stream! (Two in one)
The arrival of the navy hero Garp made everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates become a little nervous.
A man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree.
Although Garp has been famous for a long time and is considered an "old acquaintance" of Whitebeard, that was when Whitebeard was still in the Rocks Pirates. Now, most of the young people in the Whitebeard Pirates have only heard of Garp's name, but their understanding of Garp himself is very limited.
The battle that the Whitebeard Pirates participated in on Narcissus Star Island was probably their first impression of Garp's strength.
The arrival of Garp is undoubtedly a strong ally for Yoriichi Tsugakuni, but now, Yoriichi Tsugakuni has no intention of continuing to take action.
The brief battle with Whitebeard just now made Yoriichi Tsugikuni realize Whitebeard's terrifying strength. If a war were to break out with the Whitebeard Pirates here, who knows what would become of Redchiled Island.
There are too many civilians on the island, and the power of Whitebeard's devil fruit is far more exaggerated than Kaido's. If he takes it seriously, relying on the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, he can easily sink the entire island.
Moreover, Yoriichi Tsugakuni also roughly guessed Whitebeard's intention. The other party would intervene in the battle between him and Kaido at this time, probably because Whitebeard could already see Kaido's death, and suddenly took action at this time because he didn't want Kaido to die in his hands.
Letting Kaido go is not something unacceptable to Yoriichi Tsugakuni.
In other words, this was something he had to accept, unless he was willing to let the Redchiled Island be crushed into ruins by the battle of several people.
“Gulala!!”
"Are you willing to stop?"
"That's good."
"Kaido, let's go."
Whitebeard looked at Garp for a long time, and then finally came to his senses. He no longer worried about why Garp was willing to obey Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's orders, and smiled happily.
Like Yoriichi Tsugakuni, after seeing the strength of the young man in front of him, he also did not want to go to war with the navy.
However, Whitebeard was not concerned about the civilians on Readchiled Island. He was just worried that if they fought, his sons might be harmed, which was what Whitebeard wanted to see.
Whitebeard thought about rescuing Kaido. At the same time, he also wanted to see what choice Yoriichi Tsugakuni, the boy described by Roger as the "future of the navy", would make when faced with the decision.
Whitebeard was very satisfied with Tsugikuni Yoriichi's answer.
He did not seek credit, but chose a path that would cause the least harm to the people.
Although Whitebeard is already a free pirate, he has also come from a life of hardship. He has a deep understanding of the suffering of the lower class people, so he does not dislike navy officers like Tsugakuni Yoriichi.
"Walk?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"Jin is still in the hands of the navy!"
"How can I leave like this?"
Kaido was not grateful for the help given by Whitebeard at all. Holding the mace in one hand, he roared at Yoriichi Tsugakuni and Garp.
Garp then cast his gaze on Kaido. Seeing Kaido covered in blood and looking weak, his pupils shrank slightly, and he thought to himself:
"Judging from his appearance, he must have been completely at a disadvantage in the battle with Yoriichi."
"But even so, Yunyi hasn't gotten rid of him yet."
"Is it the power of a devil fruit?"
"The Fish-Fish Fruit that flowed out of the Valley of Gods has awakened!"
Garp, despite his rough exterior, was incredibly attentive. Seeing Kaido's condition, he immediately had a guess. Thinking of the terrifying power possessed by the awakened Mythical Beast Devil Fruit, Garp couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.
But when he thought that Kaido, who might have awakened, still became like this in front of Yoriichi Tsugakuni, Garp's heart suddenly relaxed.
Awakened, so what?
Yoshikazu Tsugakuni is younger than Kaido. Even if Kaido escapes today, their navy still has the opportunity to encircle and suppress Kaido.
Whitebeard saved him the first time, but can he save him the second and third time?
not to mention.
Looking at Kaido's current look, he doesn't seem to want to accept Whitebeard's kindness!
"Hey, Kaido."
When Whitebeard heard what Kaido said, he couldn't help but frown and snorted. To be honest, it's not that he can't understand Kaido's feelings, but he really can't put himself in Kaido's shoes.
"I don't want you to care!"
"I will definitely take Jhin away!"
Kaido roared, bent his legs, and soared into the sky. As his figure flew high into the sky, a blue dragon appeared directly above the island. Under the moonlight, Tsugikuni Yoshiichi could see that the blue dragon was surrounded by black flames.
A cloud of flames condensed directly between Kaido's dragon claws, and with a light flick of the dragon's tail, it flew quickly towards the direction of the Dawn warship on the shore.
"Yuichiro!" Seeing this, Garp couldn't help but shout softly. The moment the words came out of his mouth, the domineering aura around Yuichiro Tsugakuko surged and he instantly soared into the sky.
"Hmm?" Whitebeard couldn't help but hold his breath when he saw Jiguo Yuan soaring into the sky.
Can fly?
When Whitebeard came to his senses, he quickly grabbed the Kusukuni Kirei in his hand and wanted to stop Tsugikuni Yoriichi. However, at this moment, Garp jumped into the air, rushed in front of Whitebeard, and punched Whitebeard directly.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Your opponent is me! Newgate!"
Without the time to bother with Tsugikoku Yoshiichi, Whitebeard met Garp's fist with a backhand punch. Unleashing the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Whitebeard unleashed a terrifying air shock in front of him.
“Boom!!!!”
A muffled sound was heard, and the domineering auras of Garp and Whitebeard collided with each other, and the aftermath of the battle quickly spread out.
In the center of the island, Zephyr felt the atmosphere of the battle between Garp and Whitebeard, and he also accelerated his advance, hoping to free up his hands as soon as possible to help Garp and the others.
At the moment when Garp and Whitebeard were fighting, Tsugakuin Yoriichi flew high into the sky and directly caught up with Kaido. The surging Conqueror's Haki came from behind him, and Kaido turned his dragon head and saw Tsugakuin Yoriichi's cold face in the moonlight.
“This guy!”
Kaido's dragon eyes quickly swept towards the Dawn warship docked on the shore, and saw Jin still tied to the cross. His heart sank suddenly, and he suddenly accelerated and flew directly away from the coast.
Just when Yoriichi Tsugakuni thought that Kaido was planning to escape alone, he saw Kaido suddenly turn his dragon head while flying and rush towards Yoriichi Tsugakuni.
Yunyi didn't expect Kaido to turn around.
A dragon head suddenly rushed towards him, Kaido opened his dragon mouth and bit directly at Jigoku Yoshiichi.
A fishy wind blew towards him, and Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's body in the air suddenly stopped. Then, he changed his direction while flying at high speed and flew directly into the sky, avoiding Kaido's attack in an instant.
Looking up at Yoriichi Tsugakuni in mid-air, Kaido saw that after flying up a hundred meters, his body hovered in the air.
The next moment, Ji Guoyuan tilted his head downwards and began to fall rapidly. The tip of the long sword in his hand pointed at Kaido's dragon head. Domineering aura surged on his body, and his figure suddenly turned into a stream of blood, falling rapidly towards Kaido.
"Rising Dragon——Flame Bagua!!!"
Kaido's dragon body began to circle in place, and such an un-dragon thing happened directly to Kaido. At the same time, Kaido's dragon body began to circle, and flames suddenly appeared on his body, covering his body.
In the blink of an eye, a red dragon surrounded by flames instantly illuminated the night sky.
The Whitebeard Pirates noticed the unusual phenomenon in the sky and raised their heads to look up. Whitebeard, who was fighting fiercely with Garp, also noticed the battlefield in the sky. The smile on his face disappeared and his eyelids drooped slightly.
In mid-air, the red dragon quickly circled and rose, rushing towards the blood-red light that was rapidly falling from the sky.
“————”
At the moment when the red dragon and the blood-colored light collided, there was no terrifying sonic boom and no terrible celestial phenomena like lightning and thunder.
At this moment, heaven and earth were silent.
The blood-red light directly penetrated the red dragon's body and fell towards the sea.
"Bang!" The blood-red light sank into the sea.
At this moment, it was like a huge meteorite crashing into the sea.
Everyone on the island of Redchiled, whether they were pirates or navy, felt the ground shaking at this moment.
On the shore, Marco and others were horrified to find that a tsunami as high as four or five hundred meters had been set off on the originally calm sea surface and was rapidly heading towards the Redchiled Island.
"Yuichi!"
When Garp saw this scene, he couldn't help but growl, and quickly jumped back and left the battlefield. He no longer paid attention to the people in the Whitebeard Pirates, and didn't even care about the navy on the island that might be affected. He directly leaped into the air with the Moon Step and rushed towards the landing point of the blood-red light in the distance.
Mihawk's pupils shrank when he saw this scene, and he also flew up.
Whitebeard raised his head and looked at Tianlong.
At this moment, the red dragon that had once held its head high had transformed back into a cyan dragon body, and its raised head lowered. The flame cloud held between its claws began to dissipate, and the huge dragon body began to slowly descend.
"Kaido."
"That's really messed up!"
Whitebeard murmured gloomily, and then shouted to the rest of the Whitebeard Pirates: "Everyone aboard!"
"We're leaving!"
As Whitebeard's order was issued, Marco and his companions, who had a backbone in their hearts, began to move and rushed towards the Moby Dick docked on the shore. As the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates rushed towards the Moby Dick on the shore, the terrifying tsunami suddenly approached.
Whitebeard flew back to the deck of the Moby Dick, holding Congyunqi tightly in both hands, his muscles bulging, and he let out a fierce roar.
Mukumo Qiri slashed at the oncoming tsunami, and cracks appeared in the air in front of Whitebeard, as if a piece of transparent glass was shattered. Under the refraction of light, the air in front of Whitebeard actually began to stratify.
“Buzz!!!!”
A buzzing sound was heard, and the incoming tsunami stopped strangely at this moment. The sea water began to surge in the opposite direction. The waves hundreds of meters high seemed to have hit a layer of air wall and began to drop, and the sea water began to flow back.
Soon, the crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates boarded the ship one after another. Whitebeard quickly put away his sword, and then slashed at the tsunami again. At this moment, the waves that had been blocked suddenly stopped completely and began to return to the sea.
The Moby Dick was swept by the surging waves. After raising the anchor, it did not even need to raise the sails. It instantly left the coast and flew towards the slowly descending blue dragon in the distance.
On the coast, under the influence of the turbulent current, even the warship that had sunk its anchor showed signs of leaving the shore. Fortunately, Jinpei and others who stayed on the ship reacted quickly. Several fishmen went into the sea one after another to control the warship, which prevented the warship from being carried away by the current.
On the sea, a tsunami hit back, and Garp and Mihawk were forced to take moon steps to rise into the air to dodge. After the wave passed, the two hovered in the air, looking at the empty sea with their hearts sinking.
“Bang!!”
At this moment, a figure broke out from the sea and flew into the air.
Tsugikuni Yoshiichi's clothes were already wet by the sea water, but he didn't have time to pay attention to such a small matter at the moment. Instead, he turned his head to look at the Moby Dick that was gradually moving away, frowning slightly.
At this time, Kaido had long disappeared from the sky. Exhausted and seriously injured Kaido completely withdrew from the Blue Dragon form and turned back into a human. Kaido, who was about to fall into the sea, was caught by the quick-reacting crew of the Whitebeard Pirates. The Moby Dick carrying Kaido left Readchild Island quickly without any nostalgia.
"Yuichi, how are you?"
Garp's face lit up when he saw Tsugakuin Yoshiichi emerging from the sea. He quickly came to Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's side and asked with concern. Mihawk also quickly came over. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were full of concern.
"I'm fine."
"But Kaido doesn't seem to be completely dead. I feel that he still has some breath."
"Even with this kind of attack, he didn't die instantly."
"It really is a terrifying vitality."
Ji Guoyuan looked at Moby Dick in the fast park and said in a heavy tone.
"Ship's doctor, quick!"
"Come and look at this kid!"
On the deck of the Moby Dick, Kaido was lying on the ground with his eyes closed. There was a horrific knife wound on his body that went from his shoulder to his abdomen, with his internal organs even protruding. In a short while, the blood had dyed the deck of the Moby Dick red.
The members of the Whitebeard Pirates surrounded Kaido and were shocked by the injuries he had received.
At Whitebeard's call, the ship's doctor rushed over quickly, but he was stunned after taking a look at Kaido's current condition.
How to save this?
"Dad, this."
Seeing his son's hesitation, Whitebeard calmed himself down, shook his head, and said, "Just do your best. Even if you die, don't die like this."
The doctor heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Whitebeard's words. If Whitebeard had asked him to "make sure to cure him", he would have cried to death.
Not bad, not bad.
His father hasn't lost his mind over this kind of thing.
Thinking of this, the ship's doctor also hurriedly took action, asking the nurse to give medicine and blood transfusion, and began to sew Kaido's stitches and clean up his exposed internal organs.
Since it was a desperate situation, the Whitebeard Pirates' doctor decided to let go completely.
The Whitebeard Pirates left, and Yoriichi Tsugakuni and his men were unable to stop them.
Seeing that the Moby Dick had left the sight, Ji Guoyuan and others quickly returned to Readchiled Island.
His feet stepped on the ground of Readhill Island again, and Tsugikuni Yoshiichi's face finally showed some fatigue. After taking a few deep breaths and taking a short rest, he rushed to the battlefield on Readhill Island with Garp, Mihawk and others.
The following events were much easier for Yoriichi Tsugikuni and his men. The pirates, having lost their spiritual support, fell into complete chaos.
Jigoku Yuichi's observation Haki quickly covered the island, and then he specifically eliminated the pirates with stronger auras.
As for the other small pirates, the navy adopted a differentiated attack method.
That night, the Navy announced the defeat of Kaido, the King of Beasts, and the annihilation of all the leaders of the Beasts Pirates. At the same time, the Navy also advocated "surrender but not kill" and opened up the west coast without setting up a defense line there.
The purpose is to undermine the pirates' determination to fight to the death.
There are many pirates on the island, and if they wreak havoc, the damage to the people will be immeasurable.
Under the double blow from the navy from physical to mental, the pirates' defeat accelerated.
It took the navy a week to finally stabilize the situation on Readchiled Island.
At the same time, Zefa also prepared a military report and sent it back to the Navy Headquarters.
