One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 691 The War Begins! (I)

"Are you here?" "Are you there?"

The 20-nautical-mile journey didn't take long. The Four Emperors got the news just after the navy dispersed, and quickly guessed the navy's idea. The Four Emperors were well prepared for this. Originally, they built these three islands just to disperse the navy's forces. Everyone acted according to the plan and were ready. Garp was the first to appear. He led the fleet to speed up as fast as he could and finally saw the island.

"The navy is coming! Coastal artillery! Pull out the guns for me! Blast them!"

An observer noticed the situation, and the commander behind him immediately shouted loudly to the Den Den Mushi.

"Each branch has its own branch."

Accompanied by the sound of wheels rubbing against the ground, one coastal defense gun after another was pushed out. The artillerymen, who had already been training for half a year, were now full of excitement and began to calculate the distance between the two sides.

"Everyone, pay attention! Pirate base discovered! All artillery aim!"

The navy was also prepared. Following the shouts of the artillery captains of each warship, the muzzles of the navy ships began to move and aimed towards the direction of the island.

"Both sides are getting closer! The target is five nautical miles away!" "Four and a half nautical miles!" "Four nautical miles!" "Three and a half nautical miles!" "Three nautical miles!"

"Fire!" "Boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

At once, the cannons of both sides began to speak, and the overwhelming artillery fire began to attack. At the same time, the personnel of both sides began to continuously shoot down the flying shells. The two sides were constantly persisting, and the navy's warships were getting closer and closer, crashing into the beach at a speed without any fear of running aground.

"Stop them! Run! Fire!"

Looking at the ships getting closer and closer, the artillery commander on the Four Emperors' side shouted loudly. Although their artillery did have a faster firing rate and greater power than the navy's, the enemy was a moving target while theirs was a fixed target, so it would be difficult to hit them. Moreover, those ironclad ships were indeed difficult to attack.

"Hahahahaha! You little pirate brats! Who do you think you are attacking? Hahahahaha!"

At this moment, accompanied by loud laughter, a figure jumped into the air from the new ironclad ship.

"That's it! The hero of the navy! Garp!"

A pirate looked at the figure in the sky with a telescope and shouted in fear.

"Hahahaha! Those guys on these boats are all good guys! I can't let you hurt them! Let me fight you! Bone fist! Impact!"

Garp laughed loudly and gathered his domineering aura around his fist, then struck downward with a thunderous momentum. This force was like dropping a bomb on such a small island. Garp's attack was aimed at covering the entire island. This guy's goal was to cause the greatest damage. Although the power of the bone fist attack was not very large, the range was wide enough to cover the entire island.

“Gulala! Are you so arrogant right from the start? Garp! Do you think I don’t exist, old man? Big! Sky! Shock!”

Seeing that the force of the bone fist was about to hit the ground, a loud laugh came from the pirates' formation. Whitebeard's tall figure walked forward, clenched Kusugano Kirei with his right hand, and wrapped his domineering aura around it. The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit formed a milky white ball of light on Kusugano Kirei. As Whitebeard waved his arm, the milky white ball of light exploded, and the space seemed to have turned into glass and shattered. The two forces collided with each other, and there was no winner for a while. No one could do anything to the other, and there was a brief stalemate.

"Hahahahahahaha! Whitebeard! You old man are actually here! I am so lucky! Then let's try it! Can your Tremor-Tremor Fruit shatter my fist?!"

When Garp saw that it was Whitebeard who came, he was immediately happier and increased the strength in his hands. The two of them were old acquaintances and had many clashes at sea over the years. Compared with others, Whitebeard, who preferred head-on confrontation, was obviously more to his taste. This choice made him feel very good.

"Gulala la la la! Come on, old boy, Garp! Let's see if your fist is still as hard as it was in the past! If yours is not that hard, don't blame me for being merciless if you die here!" Whitebeard was not at a disadvantage in words, and naturally he couldn't lose the upper hand with his hands. He continued to mobilize the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, and the traces of shattering became bigger, almost spreading all the way from the fortifications on the shore to the top of the navy's warship. Under the attack of the two, let alone the sea surface, even the ground began to shake constantly. No one could stand firm, except Kuzan. This guy was so cunning that he froze himself to the ground with his ability, and carefully observed the collision between the two with his sunglasses on.

"What a terrifying power! Vice Admiral Garp is still as skilled as ever after all these years. But Whitebeard is no ordinary guy either. I need your help."

Kuzan muttered something in a low voice, and after the two men's attacks ended, when the old strength was gone and the new strength had not yet been generated, Kuzan took action.

"Ice Cube·Two Thorn Spear!"

Kuzan shouted loudly, and rows of ice spears shot towards Whitebeard, each of which was aimed at Whitebeard's vital points. Although Kuzan did not expect this move to achieve any actual results, as long as he could influence Whitebeard and make Garp attack faster, his goal would be achieved. Unfortunately, Whitebeard did not even look at the flying ice spears and continued to attack Garp. At this time, a black shadow rushed over from behind Whitebeard, directly smashed the ice spears, and then rushed towards Kuzan without reducing its momentum.

"Fire Emperor!"

The surging flames formed a huge fireball and flew towards Kuzan.

"Calamity from Heaven! Ashes!"

Kuzan instantly recognized the identity of the person, but it was too late to think about it. He flew away to avoid Jhin's attack. The fire was not right and he could not take it head-on.

Sure enough, after he dodged the flames, the fireball exploded instantly, turning into a pile of fireballs that flew in all directions, directly igniting the entire deck.

"Freezing moment!!!" The cold air from Kuzan's body dissipated instantly, extinguishing the flame that had just been generated.

"Ice blade!" After Kuzan finished extinguishing the fire, he stretched out his hand again and pinched it. Two ice blades appeared in his hand, crossing to block the flaming blade in the hand of Jhin who was rushing towards him.

"The Marine Admiral candidate, Aokiji, Kuzan, a good opponent."

Jhin's voice reached Kuzan's ears, and Kuzan could only smile helplessly.

"I didn't expect you to be here. I thought you were only seen at the Beasts' side. What a misfortune! Your ability is a big problem for me."

Kuzan retreated backwards and directly avoided the attack of Jhin's flaming sword. Indeed, Jhin, who possessed the ability of fire, was too difficult for him to deal with. Every move of this guy made him extremely uncomfortable. He had not yet reached the stage of awakening the fruit, so he was helpless when facing fire in battle.

"Humph, maybe your luck is really not that good."

Jhin turned around and put away his sword, which made Kuzan very alert. He had never fought with Jhin and didn't know Jhin's moves. He thought that putting away the sword wouldn't be a sword-drawing slash. But once again, he guessed wrong. After Jhin put away the sword, his body began to change.

"Because to me, ice is not an enemy!"

The black tortoise shell rose up, and a terrifying pressure spread over the entire ship. The originally turbulent ocean around it became calm. Jhin's body even occupied almost the entire deck space, and the ironclad ship sank.

"Ice or water! They're all mine! Toys!"

Jhin, who had transformed into a black turtle, spoke in a low and echoing voice. At this moment, the ice on the ground was out of Kuzan's control and surrounded Jhin like a loyal guard.
