Chapter 139 The Strong Cannot Be Insulted
After all, according to the trend, he will have to clean up the situation himself in the end. Slacking off now is just to save energy for the final battle.
After Oz fell, the war entered a white-hot stage.
After all, the previous battle was confined to the sea surface of the inner bay and the outer periphery of the island. However, after Little Oz fell and built a bridge for the Whitebeard Pirates to attack the square, the situation was different.
The pirates of the Whitebeard Pirates immediately found a clear direction of attack.
Under such circumstances, Straw Hat Luffy also appeared with his jailbreak accomplices.
While dealing with the attacks of a small number of pirates, Li De observed the entire battlefield.
Apart from the absence of Boa Hancock and Moonlight Moriah from the original work, the development of the entire war is not much different from the original work.
Luffy still rushed forward aimlessly, although he was still intercepted by various high school students, especially Smoker who had now developed black smoke.
Logically speaking, without Boa Hancock, Luffy should have almost no ability to fight back when he meets Smoker. After all, if he doesn't understand Armament Haki and meets a person with natural abilities, he will almost be eaten to death.
It’s just that the Child of Destiny is still as lucky as ever. Even without Boa Hancock, he still has Jinbe to protect him.
After all, in the original work, Jinbei went to deal with Gekko Moriah, but now Gekko Moriah is dead, so Jinbei can naturally catch up with Luffy.
The only difference is that Luffy didn't get the key to the handcuffs that handcuffed Ace.
Of course, the key that Hancock gave him in the original work was eventually shot off by Kizaru. Ace was able to escape by relying on the key made by the ability of the Gal Dino Candle-Candle Fruit.
Therefore, even if no one gives him the key, it will not affect him in the end.
Of course, even if one of the Shichibukai wants to give it, the navy must first hand over the key.
In the original book, why was Boa Hancock able to get the key? Reed thought it was related to her using her abilities.
As for why, it was because before the war, the navy did not mention giving the keys to Reed and others.
You have to know that Doflamingo, the most trusted person on the World Government side, did not get the opportunity to keep the key, let alone others.
As the war continued, Whitebeard was ultimately unable to escape the fate of being backstabbed by the giant vortex spider Skuado.
Li De shook his head secretly at this fool who would rather trust outsiders than his own people.
Only Whitebeard would forgive such a person. If it were me, I would have beheaded him long ago.
No fool would believe Sakaski's nonsense, but he actually believed it. It was hard for Li De to understand what was in this guy's mind.
He actually thought that the 43 pirate groups under the Whitebeard Pirates could be compared with the Whitebeard Pirates themselves.
He never thought that without Whitebeard, the 43 large fleets would be useless.
If the navy really had to make a choice, Sengoku would definitely be willing to let go of the 43 pirate groups and keep the Whitebeard Pirates.
The degree of danger is completely different. Why does he think that he and his people can be compared with the strongest man in the world?
The women who saw this scene above the clouds couldn't help but be dumbfounded. After all, they didn't expect that the first injury to the man known as the strongest in the world would come from his own people.
"Idiot!" Zeta commented without hesitation. After all, the other women could only see what was happening, but Zeta could not only see but also hear with her ability.
"But in this case, the injured old man won't be able to continue to take charge, and the pace of the war will accelerate." Beta was more concerned about this.
And just as Beta said, the injured Whitebeard could no longer stay in the rear. After all, his heart was injured no less than other parts of his body. Staying there would only make him weaker and weaker, that was all.
Whitebeard is not stupid, he will definitely choose to take the initiative. After all, he should rescue Ace while he can still fight.
With one move, he directly shattered the frozen tsunamis on both sides of the Navy Headquarters, opened up a retreat route for other people with weak wills, and stabilized the morale of the army.
Then he used his ability to make the terrain of the Navy Headquarters and the surrounding area tilt and shake.
"What a terrifying man, but he deserves the title of the strongest in the world!" Delta's eyes lit up. If there had been no orders, she would have rushed down to challenge the strongest.
"It's too chaotic, but if this ability is used well, it will be easy to destroy the enemy's fortifications." Ipsilon analyzed calmly.
"Is Sid okay?" Claire was a little worried. Even though she knew that Reed was very strong, she was still worried. The scene below gave off a sense of doomsday urgency.
"Sure enough, even a few lives are not enough!" Kalina looked terrified at this moment.
Even the people in the air were terrified, so those who were in the situation felt even more thrilling.
Using magic power to firmly suck the ground, Li De now felt a kind of comfort as if he was sitting and watching the clouds roll by.
Of course, in such an environment, perhaps only Li De would have the mind to appreciate this rare special effects scene.
After the shock wave passed, the terrain returned to its original state.
If it weren’t for the people who had previously occupied the high ground, many of them would have fallen down due to the change in terrain.
Li De felt that Whitebeard's attack seemed to have no effect.
Of course, this is the conclusion drawn from Li De's perspective as an observer.
But if it was Whitebeard himself, it would be different. After all, he used this trick to quickly clear out the giant navy vice admiral who was blocking his way.
Therefore, the main purpose of this move is to facilitate his own combat.
It’s a pity that the old man Whitebeard doesn’t understand science and cannot bring out the maximum lethality of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit. Otherwise, no matter how many navy people there are, they will just be decorations to him.
After all, if another scientist came, just by relying on the time he had been in charge and continuously spreading low-frequency noise, most of the 100,000 navy soldiers would probably be unable to stand, and in serious cases they would even start to lose their minds and kill each other.
This is also the reason why Li De did not dissuade Delta when he chose the ability of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
You know, in terms of destructive power, the ability of the Shattering Fruit is definitely stronger than the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
But Reed values the lethality of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit more. After Delta obtains this ability, Reed will ask her to vigorously develop low frequencies.
The first small goal is to master the special vibration frequency of the mobile phone that brought chaos to the world in "Kingsman: The Golden Circle".
Once you master this frequency, let alone one person against ten thousand, even if you are against one hundred thousand or one million, as long as there are no specific defense measures and you are within the range of low-frequency vibration, then everyone will die.
The development direction of having gorgeous special effects but without obvious effects was actually wrong from the beginning.
The saying that knowledge is power is true.
As the war continued, the Whitebeard Pirates finally captured Oris Square.
Reed also entangled Marco, who was knocked down by Garp's punch.
"Come and play with me!" Reed said to Marco.
"You guy!" Marco's face was very gloomy at the moment. After all, he was quite anxious at the moment.
"Play with me for a while, and I can help you get revenge later." Reed said while attacking Marco.
"Revenge?!" Marco found it difficult to understand what Reed said at this moment.
"The person who started this war was not Ace, but Teach!" Reed saw the confusion in his eyes, so he explained.
"Teach!" Marco realized that he had not seen Teach appear until now.
"He ran away from the Navy Headquarters before the war started. If I'm not mistaken, he should have run to Push Forward City." Li De said slowly.
"Impulse Castle?!" Marco was quite surprised. "I kindly recommended that guy to be one of the Shichibukai, but I didn't expect that he only wanted to use his status as one of the Shichibukai. Now it seems that the prisoners in Impel Down Castle are his target. Although no matter what he does, it has nothing to do with me, but he can't do this." Li De said slowly.
"As a pirate, are you still worried that those vicious prisoners will escape?" Marco asked tentatively.
"Don't you use your brain? Didn't I just say that I was the one who strongly recommended him to be one of the Shichibukai, but he turned around and broke into another institution of the World Government. How do you want the Five Elders to see me? If I don't do something to Teach, the Five Elders will definitely find a chance to settle accounts with me after this war. Although I'm not afraid of settlement, the identity of Shichibukai is still useful to me at the moment." Li De said slowly.
Neither of you are any good!
Although Marco thought so, he said nothing.
In fact, he never thought of asking Li De to help him get revenge, but after being entangled by Li De, he had no chance to escape.
Because as Li De used his magic power to raise the temperature, no one dared to approach.
No matter whether they are pirates or navy, they are far away from the temperature that can burn a person to death.
It is precisely because of this that Li De is not afraid of being eavesdropped.
Although the distance of dozens of meters is not far, in the noisy battlefield, even if the distance is close, it is impossible to hear clearly. All you can hear is what Li De and Marco are saying while fighting.
In fact, if Marco really wanted to run away, he could still escape, but he was worried that if he ran away, Reed would go find someone else.
Because at this temperature, no one can withstand it except myself who can regenerate continuously.
This was because Li Defang had not yet used his powerful Armament Haki to attack, which allowed Marco to continue regenerating. Otherwise, the situation would have taken a turn for the worse.
Marco is also aware of this. In his understanding, if he were in the same situation, he would probably do the same.
But there was one thing he didn't understand, that is, by doing this, Reed was actually giving him a chance to rescue Ace and Luffy later.
After the Whitebeard Pirates attacked the square, Li De keenly discovered that Vice Admiral Spider was holding the seastone handcuffs in one claw and was planning to ambush someone.
In the original work, Marco was distracted by Whitebeard's sudden injury and was handcuffed with seastone by Spider Demon, so he was unable to use his abilities afterwards.
When Ace died, he could only watch until Jinbe rescued Luffy, and the seastone handcuffs on his hands were opened by Gal Dino, thus blocking Akainu.
In fact, Ghost Spider was also staring at this side at this moment, but he didn't dare to get close at all.
With his strength, it was not difficult for him to withstand the heat emitted by Li De and get close to him at a distance, but it was not possible with the seastone handcuffs in his hands.
It’s not that the seastone handcuffs will melt, in fact, this thing is quite resistant to high temperatures.
The really bad part is the wooden handle that Spider Demon can hold. Don't forget that he is also a person with special abilities. If he doesn't use the wooden handle, he will be defeated by the seastone.
Therefore, he could only watch closely from the outside at the moment and couldn't get close at all.
As for Kizaru, who was blocked by Marco in the original work, he is now slacking off in the middle of the battlefield between Reed VS Marco and Whitebeard VS Akainu while killing the pirates who kept pouring into the square.
At some point, Whitebeard, who was fighting, suddenly grabbed his chest with his hands.
Marco, who had been paying attention to the battlefield, discovered this at the first moment.
After all, as the ship doctor of the Whitebeard Pirates, Marco knew Whitebeard's physical condition too well.
"Don't leave in a hurry!" Li De suddenly accelerated the moment Marco turned around, grabbed Marco's head with one hand, and then threw Marco's head to the ground with force.
Bang!
Along with the sound, a terrifying heat wave spread out in the surroundings.
"Bastard! Let me go!" Marco, who was pinned down, couldn't help but roar.
"White Beard is not old enough to need help!" Li De said slowly.
Not far away, on another small battlefield, Aokiji took advantage of Joz's distraction to freeze half of his body.
But before he could completely freeze Joz, a wave of heat spread over and instantly blew away the surrounding cold air.
With a frown, Aokiji immediately looked towards where Li De was.
My lips couldn't help but move, but I couldn't open them.
Looking at the current Seven Warlords of the Sea, Mihawk even abandoned the Flower Sword Vista and is openly killing unknown pirates to slack off, and no one even knows where Doflamingo has gone.
Not to mention Xiong, at this moment he has lost his self-awareness and it is no longer up to him to decide what to do.
So looking back, Reed, who suppressed Marco, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' First Division, has done his job conscientiously.
Even though everyone knew that the sudden heat released by Li De was suspicious in some way, no one could say anything.
As one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Li De doesn't need to consider anyone when fighting.
If you get burned accidentally because you get too close, you can only blame yourself for being careless.
Who says the battlefield is such a rapidly changing place?
"I don't need anyone's help. Huhuhuhu, I'm Whitebeard!" After a few breaths, Whitebeard in the distance shouted after fighting off a group of navy men who rushed over.
As the Whitebeard Pirates got closer and closer to the execution platform, Sengoku gave the order for execution without hesitation.
"stop it!"
Luffy's roar filled with domineering aura shocked the entire square.
"Ah, this is really unexpected." Reed, who was holding down Marco, seemed surprised by Luffy's domineering color, and then revealed some flaws.
Marco seized the opportunity and kicked back, forcing Reed to jump away.
What's even more unfortunate is that the direction in which Li De avoided happened to be blocking the Ghost Spider.
Without any hesitation, Marco flapped his wings and flew away from Reed's attack range.
After Whitebeard was injured, Marco no longer cared whether others could resist Reed.
"Damn pirates!" Ghost Spider's curse came from behind Li De.
"Are you scolding me?!" Li De suddenly turned around and asked, staring at Ghost Spider.
"It's just scolding," Ghost Spider said to this point, and then he saw a flaming red fist coming towards him.
Bang!
boom!
The next second, Ghost Spider was knocked away by Li De's punch. After knocking away countless naval soldiers along the way, it slammed heavily onto the base under the execution platform.
"Masked Rider Sid, what are you doing?!" The marines who saw this sudden change shouted.
"Following the World Government's compulsory conscription, I participated in the war against the Whitebeard Pirates. Up to this moment, I think I have done a good job. At least among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, no one should have done better than me.
But just because of an accidental negligence, I accidentally let Marco run away, and was cursed by that idiot. I was very upset. I knew from the beginning that the alliance between the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Navy was only verbal.
I didn't expect to fight alongside your navy, after all, the arrangement of the Warring States was full of malice towards us from the beginning. Therefore, the relationship between us can only be regarded as non-hostile, that's all.
So don't use your navy's rules on me. I don't need to explain anything I do to you. But one thing is clear to me: the strong should not be humiliated, and the weak should have the awareness of being weak.
No matter who it is, anywhere, at any time, if you dare to scold me, you must be prepared to risk your life. Ghost Spider, this time I didn't punch your head because we are not hostile, but remember, don't let me hear the same words next time, otherwise..."
When Li De said this, he suddenly turned around and punched behind him.
