Chapter 771 War with the Fifth Emperor? You won't even see him in person!

Off the coast of the Sabaody Archipelago, the pirate alliance is poised to strike.

Previously, he was someone the Navy and the World Government were chasing after and trying to kill, but now he's living off the government.

Most importantly, under the protection of the World Government, they can become like the Seven Warlords of the Sea, searching for the Pirate King's treasure without any scruples!
Whitebeard II Weevil, carrying his naginata, stood at the bow of the ship, grinning foolishly, while the giant bear beside him stood silently, like a statue.

Not to mention the Impel Down pirates who were just released and looked fierce, as well as the supernovas like Kid, Hawkins, and Apoo, whose eyes were burning with ambition.

The "coalition" assembled by the world government looks quite intimidating.

They stared intently at the horizon, their nerves on edge.

The Fifth Emperor's declaration of war shook the world, and everyone knew that his first strike would definitely be aimed at Sabaody Archipelago—the Celestial Dragons' backyard.

They were all prepared to fight that monster pirate crew to the death, or even to run away at any time.

Of course, we were also prepared to beat the master to death with sticks and then take a bite of the fat meat!

After all, so what if he's the Pirate King? He still got his head chopped off by two unknown executioners, didn't he?
Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared where the sea met the sky!
"They're here!" someone shouted in a trembling voice.

The hearts of everyone in the coalition jumped into their throats.

Whitebeard Jr. gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, the invisible threads between Doflamingo's fingers tightened, and Kid's mechanical arm emitted a faint hum. A great battle was about to break out!
However, when the dark figure broke through the thin fog and appeared clearly before their eyes, the allied forces were collectively stunned.

A boat? Yes!
The ghost ship at the very front with the strange radish-shaped head is definitely the Fifth Emperor's flagship, the "Ghost Radish".

But what actually covered the sea surface and even climbed onto the beaches of the Sabaody Archipelago like a mudslide was not the pirate powerhouse they had imagined!

It's a cookie!
They were thousands upon thousands of densely packed, terrifyingly silent biscuit soldiers!
These guys were all wearing heavy, brownish-yellow armor that looked like burnt biscuits, and carrying biscuit swords or spears of the same material.

But what's most eye-catching is that their biscuit armor is covered by a layer of metal shell that gleams with a cold or ostentatious luster!

Some have helmets like lumps of iron on the biscuit's head, some have glittering breastplates covering the biscuit's chest, and some have iron wrist guards on their arms and gold greaves on their legs. They are all kinds of things, like children randomly piecing together different toy armors and putting them on biscuit dolls.

But the cold gleam and weight of the metal were real, absolutely real!
This bizarre scene left the allied forces speechless.

After a brief silence, an unbelievable discussion erupted.

"What the hell?! Cookies?!"

"Where is the Fifth Emperor? Where are all those monsters under his command? Is this the kind of trash he sends out to fight?!"

"What are those metal and gold shells? Toys?"

"Hahaha! This is hilarious! The World Government paid a fortune to bring us here just to deal with this pile of burnt pastries?"

A sense of disdain spread instantly. Even Doflamingo's lips curled into a mocking smile.

Whitebeard Jr. even yelled, "Snacks! Snacks! Mom, I want some!"

He was the first to rush forward! The huge naginata was swung in a wide arc, with the force to split mountains and shatter rocks, and slashed fiercely at the nearest biscuit soldier wearing an iron bucket helmet on his head!

boom!
With a loud bang, a large chunk of the biscuit armor on the biscuit soldier shattered, sending crumbs flying everywhere!
It was knocked back several steps by the force, and a large dent was formed in its gleaming gold breastplate! But!
It didn't fall apart! It shook its head, raised its cookie sword, and charged forward again!

"Hmm?" Whitebeard Jr. tilted his head, somewhat puzzled.

He thought that the blow he had just delivered was enough to turn the "snack" into powder.

The laughter of the allied pirates around them caught in their throats.

At this moment, more biscuit soldiers, like a silent tide, pressed forward with heavy but orderly steps.

The nearest pirate crews, whether they liked it or not, were instantly drawn into the battle.

Basil Hawkins, the "Magician," narrowed his eyes, and the biscuit soldier in front of him raised his sword to strike.

Hawkins remained calm as the straw in front of him surged, revealing a stand-in scarecrow.

puff!

The biscuit sword slammed into the scarecrow, the immense force causing Hawkins himself to tremble slightly. His previously indifferent expression changed; the power of this strike far exceeded his expectations!

This isn't a dessert; it's steel disguised as a dessert!

"Captain! Watch out!" Hawkins' crew cried out.

Another biscuit soldier wearing an iron helmet ignored the attacks from the henchmen beside him, and withstood the thrusting spears, he swung his biscuit greatsword with a dull whistling sound as it fiercely struck Hawkins!
Hawkins quickly dodged to the side, the blade grazing his robe and creating a small crater in the ground!
On the other side, Kira, the "Killing Warrior," moved at high speed, his scythe drawing a deadly arc, precisely slicing through the joints of the biscuit soldiers.

Against ordinary enemies, this move is enough to dislocate their arms and legs.

But how do you deal with these biscuit soldiers?
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Sparks flew everywhere! Kira's scythe struck the joints of the biscuit soldiers, which were covered with iron wrist guards or gold knee pads, producing a metallic clang!

Although it can still chop the cookies below, it's much less efficient!
A cookie soldier had its cookie arm holding a sword cut off, but it used its other hand, covered with an iron gauntlet, to deliver a powerful punch to Kira!
Kira hurriedly used his scythe to block, but the immense force made his arm go numb, and he staggered back several steps before regaining his balance!
"What a joke." Kira's eyes, hidden behind his mask, were filled with astonishment.

These biscuit soldiers possess strength and defense unlike any ordinary creation!

"Scrape Plate Slash!" Ap hid in the back row, slapping his body and emitting sharp sonic blades.

The sonic blades slashed at several biscuit soldiers, clanging and splintering their outer metal armor, while the biscuit armor beneath shattered.

But after the sound waves passed, apart from their severely damaged armor, those soldiers were still swaying and moving forward!
Their core "biscuit body" seems to be protected by that peculiar metallic shell, keeping the key parts safe!

"Ugh! So hard! Incredibly hard!" Ap shook his numb hands. "What's the deal with these iron and gold shells?!"

Amid the chaos of the battlefield, the allied forces' best fighters quickly discovered details that sent chills down their spines.

Two biscuit soldiers collided during the charge. One of them was fully encased in an iron suit (iron helmet, iron breastplate, iron gaiters, and iron boots), while the other had only a few scattered pieces of gold protecting his vitals.

They seemed to have "mistaken" their target and started slashing at each other with cookie swords!

Bang!Bang!Bang!
The heavy thuds of impact continued to echo.

The soldier, protected only by gold flakes, had his biscuit armor completely shattered by the third sword strike. The gold flakes twisted and deformed, and the entire soldier turned into a pile of fragments.

The soldier with the full iron shell, although his biscuit armor was also chopped to pieces by the fifth sword, and the armor was covered with deep dents, it managed to hold on until the sixth sword before it completely fell apart!
Doflamingo's sunglasses reflected the light of the battlefield, and with a slight twitch of his fingers, several sharp threads, barely visible to the naked eye, flashed by in an instant.

scoff!

The iron armor of a biscuit soldier was easily sliced ​​through, like a hot knife through butter.

But Doflamingo's gaze did not relax at all; instead, it became even more serious.

Because he saw that a biscuit soldier next to him, who hadn't been attacked by him, was using his fist covered in an iron shell to smash a pirate with a bounty of ten million dollars, sending him and his sword flying more than ten meters away. The sound of the pirate's ribs shattering could be clearly heard!

"Fufufufufu," Ming's laughter carried a hint of coldness and disbelief. "This is getting more and more interesting."

He completely abandoned his contempt.

These tin cans covered in biscuit crusts are definitely not cannon fodder!

They are an army with terrifying combat power!
The Fifth Emperor actually used this method to wear them down?!

The Allied high command looked at their men struggling in the fierce battle, and at the pirates falling one after another under the attack of the biscuit soldiers. A chill ran from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads.

What happened to the decisive battle they thought they were facing? What happened to the Fifth Emperor himself, the one who could destroy the world?

Before they even saw the main attraction, they were supposed to crash into this damn, ridiculously hard pile of cookies and pastries in weird metal shells and get all bloodied?!

How can we possibly fight this war?!

However, this is just the appetizer!

Count Red looked at the five Earth Grudges beside him, who had eaten various fruits and were poised to attack, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"Don't rush, these small fry are not our concern."
