The red lightning that flashed in the sky illuminated the entire Cake Island, and two terrifying domineering auras spread out, covering the entire Cake Island.
At this moment, everyone on Cake Island could clearly feel the pressure from the strong. Some ordinary people with weaker strength had no way to withstand the domineering aura emitted by Dragon and Mihawk. Their bodies collapsed and fell to the ground.
This also made the new navy, which was already in some confusion due to the tsunami, even more flustered.
In the base, the relatively strong lieutenants were on the verge of collapse under the pressure of these two domineering auras, but their brains were still able to remain clear. At this dangerous moment, although many young officers did not receive orders from their superiors, they also acted quickly and transferred their unconscious subordinates to higher ground.
The terrifying tsunami is sweeping towards the headquarters base. Although the first few waves have not been able to affect the headquarters' buildings due to the obstruction of high walls and earth slopes, judging from the current scale of the tsunami, it is only a matter of time before seawater floods into the headquarters.
Shrill alarms were blaring in various places in the new navy headquarters, and the new sailors were in a panic. Some of the sailors who received transfer orders gathered near the main building where Yixiao was, and some sailors who had not received transfer orders either stayed in their dormitories or in the navy cafeteria.
When the headquarters was undergoing a huge change, even these well-trained new navy officers subconsciously gathered together to resist any possible changes that might occur next.
In Yixiao's office, Yixiao, one of the highest powers in the New Navy, was standing by the window. His observation Haki locked onto Long and Mihawk from afar, and he was closely watching the developments on the battlefield.
So far, the only one who made a fuss was Long. Yixiao guessed that the other party appeared here most likely as a revenge act because Tsugumi Yoshiichi was planning to publicly execute the commander of the revolutionary army.
Apart from this, Yixiao really couldn't figure out what benefit Long Ta would gain from attacking the New Navy Headquarters.
When one reaches the level of Yixiao and Long, it is impossible to do things completely as they please. They shoulder the future of a great power. People of their status represent not only themselves when they take action, but also the thousands, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of subordinates behind them.
Yixiao didn't believe that someone like Long would attack the New Navy Headquarters for no reason, because it would only deepen the hatred between the New Navy and the Revolutionary Army and would not bring any benefits.
Even though Yixiao now guessed that the other party's actions might be a revenge against Tsugikuni Yoshiichi, Yixiao still couldn't figure out the logic behind Long's actions.
What purpose does such a retaliatory action serve for the revolutionary army? Apart from gaining some reputation, there seems to be no other benefit.
Putting himself in Long's shoes, Yixiao felt that if he were Long, he would never do this. Instead of embarrassing the New Navy, it would be more practical for him to accumulate strength and then attack Marineford to rescue the two revolutionary army commanders.
The top combat power possessed by Cake Island and Marine Headquarters Marinford is actually similar. Of course, due to the relationship with Tsugakuni Yoriichi, the power that the new navy can burst out in times of crisis is far beyond the current Cake Island's reach.
But the prison break doesn't have to wait until the two army captains are escorted to Marinford, right?
If the operation succeeds and the two army commanders are rescued, the strong image of the revolutionary army in the minds of the people will not be affected in any way; even if it fails, the revolutionary army's affectionate and righteous behavior will inevitably attract a wave of goodwill from the people.
But now the dragon's actions
"Why is this guy here?!"
Yixiao couldn't understand the logic behind Long's actions. While paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, he was more concerned about why Long did this.
However, his doubt was soon answered.
“Bang, bang, bang!!!”
There was a knock on the tightly closed office door. Yixiao and Bakara, who were inside the office, both turned their heads and looked towards the door.
After hearing the noise, Bakara quickly walked to the door and opened it. Standing at the door was a messenger who was in a hurry.
"What is it?"
"Calm down!"
Bakara asked in a deep voice. His calm and indifferent appearance also affected the messenger outside the door. He took a deep breath before reporting:
"Report, an intruder has appeared in the base!"
"It's the Straw Hat Pirates!"
The news reported by the visitor made Bakara look stunned. Cake Island was currently experiencing a tsunami, and a terrifying strong man was fighting with Admiral Mihawk. At such a critical juncture, there were actually pirates in the base?
With so many coincidences, it is hard not to connect these people and things with each other.
"Are you saying that the Straw Hat Pirates invaded the base? Is this true? Are there any witnesses?"
Bakara asked repeatedly, seemingly doubting the authenticity of the information. She judged that the Straw Hat Pirates had most likely left Bankoku after their last narrow escape. After all, Aramaki and his team had spent so much time searching Bankoku without finding any information about them.
The possibility of the other party leaving Wan Guo is very high.
But the Straw Hat Pirates, a small pirate group that had suffered a great loss at the hands of Yixiao and her Bakara, and had escaped prison by chance, actually made a surprise attack and invaded their new marine headquarters? This kind of thing can no longer be simply described as daring.
At this time, the conversation between Bakara and the messenger at the door obviously attracted Yixiao's attention inside the room.
"Come in and tell me in detail!"
The sound of a laugh reached the ears of the two men. Bakara slightly turned sideways, made a "come in" gesture inside, and then turned around and walked into the office.
The messenger followed by Bakara came to Yixiao, saluted and reported to him:
"Reporting to the General, the patrol team has discovered intruders. There are five enemies in total. They have broken through the outermost defense line of the headquarters and defeated the patrol team that discovered them. They are now fleeing within the base!"
The information the messenger had was not very thorough, but his confident words made Yixiao frown slightly.
"You really didn't leave?"
It was not surprising that the Straw Hat Pirates did not leave Bankoi. At the beginning, Yixiao guessed that they must have some purpose in coming to Bankoi. Those people were accidentally captured on Hazelnut Island and probably had not yet achieved their goal. Yixiao had a hunch that this group of people might appear again.
But what he didn't expect was that these guys came so quickly, and they were heading for their headquarters.
"Have you ever found out what the purpose of these pirates invading our headquarters is?"
Yixiao asked in a deep voice after a moment's thought.
"Report, I don't know yet."
"But they seem to be looking for something in the headquarters."
Chuan Libing's two sentences still didn't contain much information, and Yixiao could only guess.
"Gold, silver, and treasures? Prisoners and captives?"
"What are they looking for?"
Yixiao pondered, but his first idea was rejected by himself the moment it came to mind. Attacking the Marine Headquarters for money was somewhat inconsistent with the behavior of the Straw Hats.
On the side, Bakara's face immediately showed an indignant look after hearing the messenger confirm the news. Those guys ran away, but they actually dared to invade the Navy Headquarters? This time, they must not let their opponents go!
Just as he was about to ask Yixiao to order him to capture the criminal, he heard Yixiao say in a deep voice:
"The pirates have broken into our headquarters. No matter what the reason, we cannot let them leave."
"Notify Abel and have him lead the team to capture Straw Hat Luffy and his crew."
Yixiao gave the order decisively, then turned his head and continued to look at the dark night sky.
"yes!"
The messenger responded and left in a hurry, and Abel swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and didn't mention them again.
The main body of the new navy's base on Cake Island was renovated and expanded based on the former Big Mom's lair.
From the outside, the main body of the building looks like a three-layer cake. The most basic part, which is also the largest part, is the administrative department, which is mostly responsible for affairs related to the people of the country under the rule of the new navy.
In addition to some offices and conference rooms, this area also has canteens, training grounds and other activity and entertainment venues with different functions.
The base "cake" has a wide area, and the height of a single layer is nearly 30 meters, which is an extremely large area.
Going up to the second floor, the height of each floor is relatively shorter. The departments gathered on this large floor are all related to the internal affairs of the new navy, in simple terms, it is the Ministry of the Interior.
In addition to the main buildings such as offices and conference rooms used for normal office work, there are also canteens belonging to each department.
As for the top layer of the cake, it is basically where the senior navy officials live and work. At the same time, this layer also houses the most confidential intelligence room and data room of the entire new navy. The internal supervision and anti-black departments are also in different areas of this level.
In addition to the ground buildings, there are some other fortifications underground in the main building of the new naval headquarters.
Air-raid shelters, monitoring rooms, the treasure house left behind by the Big Mom Pirates, the confidential library, etc. are all placed underground.
Moreover, the underground corridors are intricate and interconnected. If it is wartime, this underground fortification may become a place for the new navy to retreat when it is at a disadvantage.
When building these fortifications, all levels of the new navy spent a lot of time and effort thinking about it.
After bypassing the sentries at the gate, the Straw Hat Pirates planned to sneak into the main building of the base, but they didn't expect that the "main" building of the new navy's base would be so large.
Even the new navy who intentionally avoided patrols still ran into some navy gathered here during the search, and then a battle broke out.
Although they took care of the patrolmen, Luffy and the others realized that they were exposed.
This time when they broke into the New Marine Headquarters, not all the Straw Hat Pirates went out. Franky and Nami stayed on the ship to guard it so that they could be picked up during the evacuation, although according to the plan, Dragon was the one who had to do this job.
But there still had to be someone on the Sunny, and the two of them were the ones responsible for this matter.
In addition to the two of them, the Straw Hat Pirates also went out in full force.
Although Vivi herself has no combat power, she is the only person on the ship who understands the historical text, and is also one of the few people with brains. Just in case, Luffy brought Vivi with him.
In addition to Vivi, Luffy himself, Sanji, Usopp, Coby, Carrot, Chopper and Brook were all present.
A group of people moved very quickly on the New Navy's territory. After realizing that their whereabouts had been discovered by the other party, Vivi also suggested that Luffy capture a few people from the New Navy to inquire about the location of the New Navy's treasure house.
Unfortunately, the Straw Hat Pirates captured several people during the operation who kept their mouths shut and did not reveal the information they wanted to the Straw Hat Pirates.
Although they did not learn the exact location of the treasure from the New Navy, Luffy and others were not wandering aimlessly.
Brook and Vivi both sat on the beast-like Chopper and were carried forward by Chopper. At this time, Brook had also used the ability of his Yomiuri Fruit to leave his body, and with the ability of his soul to pass through walls, he traveled underground, looking for the treasure house.
Although they don't know where the new navy's treasure trove is, they do have some basic common sense.
Things like treasure houses would most likely be placed underground.
After entering the new naval base, Luffy and his companions fought off wave after wave of new navy troops who came to encircle them, while also rushing towards various underground fortifications.
The New Navy gradually grasped the trajectory of their movements. Abel, who was in charge of hunting down the Straw Hat Pirates and others, roughly determined the purpose of the Straw Hat Pirates after combining the relevant information he received.
"The pirates' target might be the main text of the landmark history."
When Yixiao received the report from his subordinates in the top-floor office, the expression on his face changed slightly.
“It’s actually the text of the road sign history?!”
Obviously Yixiao didn't expect that the Straw Hat Pirates would take such a big risk to break into the New Marine Headquarters just for that thing.
Over the years, countless people have clamored to become the Pirate King on this sea.
However, there are very few people who can actually put it into action. On the one hand, it is very difficult to collect the historical text of the Red Road Sign, and not all pirates have the strength to compete for the position of Pirate King.
On the other hand, it is extremely difficult to decipher the text of the historical landmarks. Even if we get the text of the historical landmarks, we probably won't be able to know the location of Raftel.
Therefore, over the years, even the New Navy itself has forgotten that it holds two historical texts of the landmarks in its hands.
"One Piece."
"snort!"
"Then it depends on whether you can get it!"
Yixiao agreed with Abel's guess, snorted lightly, walked to the table, picked up the Den Den Mushi and made a call.
Now that the other party's purpose is clear, just give them a good boost!
