Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 576 The War Begins: Only Akatsuki Can Use the Method of Greeting!

Compared to Whitebeard and his gang of pirates…

The revolutionary army was clearly much more rational.

Uehara Naraku's Orange Warship quickly found the Revolutionary Army's Grand Fleet. Sengoku and Garp's appearance caused a sensation. However, after they started talking, Monkey D. Dragon thought for a while and then agreed.

Because Monkey D. Garp was right next to Sengoku.

Even though Dragon was unwilling to believe in Sengoku the Buddha, he still had great faith in his father.

But even Dragon hadn't expected this...

The course of this war was so favorable to the revolutionary army.

The Akatsuki's destruction of the World Government was an unexpected boon for the Revolutionary Army, who could even participate in the formation of a new World Government.

This is something I need to think about carefully…

The revolutionary army is a group of dragon slayers; they cannot become the dragons themselves…

Furthermore, Dragon also helped contact the remnants of Ben Beckman's Red-Haired Pirates, inviting them to join forces in a campaign against the Akatsuki!

certainly…

Now, the first thing these hastily formed allies do is still to attack Marineford, the Marine Headquarters base, and rescue the people who have been publicly executed by the Akatsuki.

Once the Revolutionary Army officers and Shanks are rescued…

This means their league will be able to increase its strength significantly!

However, this is also quite difficult...

Because their fragile alliance is facing a super organization that possesses the Marine Headquarters and two Yonko pirate crews!

dawn!

This little-known organization…

When it first revealed its fangs, it was enough to shock the whole world!

Now this organization has finally unveiled its true colors, and the first thing they trampled under their feet was the Celestial Dragons and the World Government, who had ruled for eight hundred years!

This is really...

If you don't make a move, then you don't...

Every move they make never disappoints!

Today, the Akatsuki organization possesses some of the strongest forces on this sea, and no one can predict how many terrifying monsters are hidden within their ranks!

but…

No one has any way out!

Even retreating was no longer an option. Their only option was to advance step by step and at least annihilate the Akatsuki's existing armed forces in Marineford. Otherwise, they would only become prey for the Akatsuki as they devoured the world!

Dragon stood atop the dragon-headed warship, slowly extending his palm and summoning a hurricane to propel his massive vessel forward at breakneck speed: "A war that will directly determine the fate of everyone in this world is finally about to begin!"

Marineford.

One prisoner after another was led to the execution platform.

Kabuto Yakushi held the microphone in his hand and calmly read the list in his hand: "Fire Fist Ace, son of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger, currently the captain of the 2nd Division of the Whitebeard Pirates."

Sabo, a nobleman of the Goa Kingdom, is currently the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army; Luffy, the Straw Hat Pirates' captain, is the son of Monkey D. Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army…

Fire Fist Ace walked at the front, Sabo in the middle, and Luffy at the back. The three brothers slowly stepped onto the execution platform, but each of them seemed to have a smile on their face.

Because they were sworn brothers.

If possible, dying together today doesn't seem so unacceptable.

Kabuto watched as the three brothers knelt on the execution platform, picked up the list in his hand, and continued reading: "The following are the remnants of the Roger Pirates: Buggy the Clown, Shanks, Crocodile, Douglas Bullet..."

CP agents escorted one figure after another onto the execution platform and placed them in an area on it.

Kabuto looked at Shanks, who also had a broad smile on his face, picked up the list in his hand again, and said in a low voice, "The following are the Revolutionary Army officers, the Northern Army..."

Just as Kabuto was about to continue reading the list, a lookout officer seemed to have noticed the strange situation at the Gate of Justice and suddenly shouted a warning.

"Vice Admiral Kabuto Yakushi, someone is passing through the Gates of Justice!"

The waves surged within the Gates of Justice.

Pirate ships slowly passed through the Gate of Justice.

The next moment, the messenger, peering through his binoculars, slowly changed his expression and shouted, "Those are Whitebeard's pirate crew... Elmi, Makugai, the Deckard brothers... all of them are infamous pirates of the New World!"

Forty pirate ships sailed majestically toward Marineford, each one fully armed!

These ships were carrying nearly 20,000 pirates!

This is what has attracted the pirates who have followed Whitebeard over the years!

Now all these pirates have arrived at Marineford to help!

The naval messenger's expression grew increasingly grim as ship after ship entered Marineford in his field of vision: "And...and the Revolutionary Army's fleet! Leading it is...Monkey D. Dragon's Dragon Head Battleship!"

Dozens of revolutionary warships followed closely behind!

This was almost the entirety of the Revolutionary Army's resources. Dragon originally wanted to use this war to launch a major battle against the World Government, but things seemed to be going more smoothly than expected!

The world government has now been destroyed.

Dragon no longer needs to continue accumulating strength to overthrow the World Government; it is enough for him to join forces with the Whitebeard Pirates and the Red-Haired Pirates to defeat the Akatsuki!

Now both of them...

Who will win this world war...?

Whoever does so will have the power to rule this world!

Pirate ships and Revolutionary Army vessels passed through the Gates of Justice and arrived at the outer sea of ​​Marineford. A group of coastal defense artillery responsible for the outer defense immediately began to engage these people in sporadic fire.

Kabuto Yakushi stood on the execution platform, adjusted his glasses, and looked at the group of pirate ships and revolutionary army warships. His face showed no panic, and he even had a slight smile on his lips.

"That's really good."

Kabuto nodded slowly, smiling as he said, "That way, we can wipe them all out here..."

After saying that, Yakushi turned to look at his adjutant beside him and continued, "Alright, bring all the Revolutionary Army cadres up here. Don't delay our public execution; it's being broadcast live all over the world right now!"

indeed…

The whole world is broadcasting today's events live!

Starting today, the world will change!

"Where's the white beard..."

Vice Admiral Tsuru stood beside Kabuto Yakushi, a hint of worry on his face: "Whitebeard, Sengoku, Garp... didn't they appear with them?"

If they didn't appear with these people... could it mean that Whitebeard, Garp, and Sengoku have fallen into Akatsuki's trap?

Kabuto shook his head, his fingers slowly coming together as he chuckled and said, "Don't worry, important figures always need a special way of making their entrance..."

As soon as Kabuto finished speaking…

Currents surged through the inner harbor of Marineford, and everyone with Observation Haki couldn't help but probe into the harbor!

next moment…

One after another, large ships covered in coatings proudly emerged!

Three ships belonging to the Whitebeard Pirates: the Moby Dick, one ship belonging to the Red-Haired Pirates: the New Red Fox, and one ship belonging to the Orange Pirates!

"That is..."

"Moby-Dick!"

"The world's strongest man has arrived!"

"Edward Newgate the Whitebeard!"

"They actually used a coating to cover the ship before it slid underwater!"

"There are still remnants of the Red-Haired Pirates... Isn't that Vice Admiral Uehara Naraku's warship? Has that guy been captured by pirates again?"

"Wait, Vice Admiral Garp and Fleet Admiral Sengoku are also on that ship!"

The Marines at Marineford were filled with astonishment. The sudden entry of these five ships into the inner harbor was truly remarkable. The sailors couldn't help but start discussing it with their colleagues.

Whether it's the appearance of the Whitebeard Pirates or the involvement of the Red-Haired Pirates...

Or perhaps it's the reason why Sengoku and Garp suddenly emerged from the seabed—these are questions that could keep the Marines discussing for quite some time…

Just as they were still wondering, Edward Newgate, the white-bearded man, walked up to the bow of the ship, gripping his large knife, and his gaze fell on the execution platform.

"Ace, are you alright?!"

The next moment, the world's strongest man grinned: "Gurarararar... Xiao's bunch of little bugs... if you want to see me, you don't need to frame my son!"

"Wh...what...Xiao..."

"What is he saying?"

The group of sailors looked at each other in bewilderment.

Just as they were about to discuss the matter, their officer spoke up: "Don't listen to his nonsense! Execute our orders! Today, our orders are to annihilate the Whitebeard Pirates, the Revolutionary Army, and the remnants of Shanks' forces!"

"All Navy sailors!"

However, at that moment, Sengoku stood at the bow of the Tachibana warship, looking up at Kabuto Yakushi on the execution platform and shouted, "Kabuto Yakushi has betrayed justice..."

"Your Excellency, Marshal of the Warring States Period!"

Just as Sengoku was about to speak, Kabuto Yakushi, holding his microphone, chuckled and said, "Don't waste your time on this. As someone who has served in the Navy for over fifty years, you surely don't want more innocent people to die, do you?"

"..."

The Warring States period fell silent.

"Never mind, the Warring States period."

Garp patted Sengoku on the shoulder, looked at Kabuto Yakushi on the execution platform, clenched his fist, and grinned, "Kubuto...you brat, you haven't tasted my fist yet!"

"certainly."

Kabuto Yakushi still wore a smile, but it was a somewhat eerie one: "I'd be very happy to fight Vice Admiral Garp, who has betrayed the Navy. Perhaps today we'll all know who the strongest Navy Vice Admiral really is..."

"Hey, Kabuto, stop talking about that!"

Ben Beckman, standing at the bow of the New Red Fox, a cigarette dangling from his lips, slowly asked, "Is our captain alright?"

"Beckman!"

Red-haired Shanks knelt on the execution platform, grinning broadly, and said, "I'm doing just fine here, don't worry!"

"Idiot, shut up!"

A flash of rage crossed Ben Beckman's face.

That idiot captain…

One sentence completely broke Ben Beckman's composure as the first mate!

In comparison, Rayleigh, the former vice-captain, was much more benevolent.

Rayleigh's gaze fell on a group of Roger Pirates crew members: "Buggy, Shanks, you didn't get into a fight in jail, did you? Bullet, you seem to have grown quite a bit taller! Crocus, your physique is pretty good, isn't it..."

Finally, Rayleigh's gaze fell on Shakky. He adjusted his glasses and said in a deep voice, "Shakky... I've come to save you."

"..."

The expressions on the Roger Pirates' faces immediately became subtle, and the strange expressions on each of their faces were so striking that it was hard to look directly at them.

While this group was still making a ruckus before the battle…

Suddenly, ships rained down from the sky, crashing down on Marineford.

Shiki the Golden Lion, the user of the Float-Float Fruit, let his arrogant voice echo throughout the naval base: "Hahahaha... I'm not too late, am I! Since you haven't started fighting yet, let me start the war for you!"

"Are you kidding me!"

"Is this the power of the Float-Float Fruit?"

"Twenty years ago, it was he who breached Marineford!"

A group of sailors stared in terror at the falling ship. Just as their faces were filled with fear and unease, beams of light suddenly shot out from the ground. Under the influence of these beams, the ship's descent slowed considerably...

If you don't look carefully...

It might even lead people to believe that these ships have stopped falling!

The next moment, beams of light fell on these ships, blasting them away from the ships that were about to crash into Marineford!

Even Shiki the Golden Lion was thrown away!

Kakuzu slowly withdrew his hand, his face showing some displeasure as he looked up at Shiki the Golden Lion who had been flung away, and coldly said, "Young man, it's better not to be too arrogant... Hmph, remember this, from now on only Akatsuki can use this way of greeting."

Second update!
