Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

So the proud Naga, seeing the four people fighting, began to howl directly towards Marineford.

Ah~~~~~

"What is that?" The Naga's howl finally drew the Navy's attention.

Standing on the platform, Sengoku frowned and asked.

"I don't know, it seems to be... a mermaid?" The soldier next to him hesitated for a moment before replying.

"Mermaids?" Sengoku was taken aback, somewhat surprised.

As is well known, merfolk have no other abilities besides their exceptional swimming speed. They are basically targets for human traffickers. Not to mention the top-tier battlefields of the Navy and the Whitebeard Pirates, merfolk are rarely seen even in ordinary battles.

"Sir... what's that over there? It looks like something's getting closer!" A Marine soldier who was exchanging fire with the Whitebeard Pirates at the harbor suddenly pointed to the sea not far away and said to the Marine admiral beside him.

"Hmm?" The naval rear admiral frowned and looked in the direction the soldier was pointing, but he didn't see anything. Just as he was about to reprimand the soldier, suddenly, a huge sea beast emerged from the sea and bit at the naval soldier standing on the port.

"Oh no! Sea monsters!" At this moment, the naval soldiers and officers at the port suddenly discovered that countless sea monsters were attacking from all sides, swallowing up all the naval soldiers who were close to the sea.

"Retreat immediately! Colonel and above, follow me to kill the enemy!" Lieutenant General Squirrel shouted, his mind reeling.

The officers who originally intended to attack the Moby Dick rushed towards the shore, fearing that the navy would suffer heavy losses if the sea monsters continued to attack.

"The sea monster... she summoned it!" Aokiji and Akainu, who were fighting Reina and Marco, naturally saw the sea monster attack Marineford, so they looked at the smiling Naga.

"Have you ever felt the speed of light?" Just as Naga was feeling smug, she suddenly heard a voice, and then she saw a person in front of her who was radiating golden light. It was none other than Marine Admiral Kizaru Borsalino!

"Ocean Current - Over-the-Shoulder Throw!" But just as Kizaru made his move, a current of seawater suddenly rushed towards him. If he didn't stop, he would definitely be hit by the current as well as Naga.

"Oh dear~ That was close! I didn't expect you to be here too." Looking at Jinbe floating on the sea, Kizaru took a step back, withdrew his attack, and said with a smile.

"Whoosh~" Naga only reacted after Kizaru retreated and the ocean current passed in front of her.

"Are you Admiral Kizaru?" Naga asked, her face grim, after taking a step back.

She underestimated the Marine Admirals. Not to mention Aokiji and Akainu, the two of them were stopped by Reyna and Marco before they could even exchange blows with her.

However, if it weren't for Jinbe's help, Kizaru would have been seriously injured even if he hadn't died.

"Hmm~ Who are you? You seem so strange! Are you a mermaid? But you seem a little different! Did you summon these sea beasts?" Kizaru looked at Naga with interest and asked.

"I am a Naga, and summoning sea beasts is my ability!" The Naga came here to make a name for themselves, so naturally they would not refuse to answer.

"Oh my, this is really interesting... Naga? I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before." Kizaru stood there, looking thoughtful, seemingly not planning to attack.

However, Jinbe, standing nearby, did not dare to be careless and went directly to Naga's side, telling her to step back a little more.

"So this is a Marine Admiral... So strong!" Naga said with a bitter expression as she saw Jinbe approaching.

Upon hearing this, Jinbe smiled wryly and said, "Ordinary humans are no match for my fish-men race, but there are countless strong humans, while my fish-men race has yet to have a single one of such strength!"

"Hoo~ With the combined strength of the two of us, can we fight him?" Naga asked, looking at the grinning Kizaru.

Jinbe shook his head and said, "It's hard to say! If we're at sea, he probably won't be a match for us, but on land... we're afraid we can't! That's one of the reasons why our Fish-Man race can only hide on Fish-Man Island!"

Chapter 485 Whitebeard Pirates VS Marine Headquarters

Despite being blocked by Naga and Jinbe, Kizaru did not rush to make a move.

He returned from the island where the scientific corps was secretly stationed after receiving orders. The island was home to Dr. Vegapunk, one of the world's greatest scientists, so even within the navy, few people knew its location, and contacting him required Sengoku's authorization.

Originally just a man of exceptional martial prowess, after becoming the commander of the science unit, he gained considerable knowledge and understanding of many of the secret sciences researched by Vegapunk.

So when he saw the Naga in front of him, he wondered what kind of results would come out if he captured this completely new species and gave it to Dr. Vegapunk to study!

"Roar~~"

"Roar~~~"

The continuous roars of the sea beasts caught Naga's attention. After looking around, her face immediately turned grim. In just a short while, more than half of the sea beasts she had summoned had been killed or wounded. And this was in the port; if it were on land, even more would have died.

"Retreat!" Jinbe, who was standing to the side, had also seen the current situation, so he decided to protect Naga and leave.

Now, Naga is not only the last member of the Naga clan, but also the wife of Prince Shark Star and the future queen of Fishman Island. He must ensure Naga's safety.

"Hehehe...Trying to run away? Marineford...is not a place you can come and go as you please!" Seeing Jinbe and Naga trying to escape, Kizaru chuckled, and his entire body glowed with golden light.

"Not good! Ocean Current - Water Heart Shield!" Seeing Kizaru's side make a move, Jinbe slapped the sea surface, and the seawater he stirred up immediately transformed into a shield, blocking in front of himself and Naga.

"A mere trick!" The light pierced through the shield and appeared directly in front of the surface, as if the seawater shield was completely useless.

"when!"

However, just as the light was about to hit Jinbe, a trident suddenly descended from the sky, blocking Jinbe's path and stopping Kizaru's attack.

"Don't underestimate me, you bastard!" Naga roared, her face grim.

She now felt the gap between herself and these top experts. Originally, she thought that the terrifying Reina was already a top expert among humans, and there shouldn't be many such experts. But today she witnessed what a true expert is.

Putting everything else aside, in this battle, there are probably no fewer than ten people who could defeat her.

This doesn't even include the Fleet Admiral and Vice Admiral Azuru, who were standing there without making a move.

So now Naga has come to terms with reality, but that doesn't mean she's ready to surrender.

"Oh dear~ This is really troublesome!" Kizaru, who had transformed back into human form, said with a smile after seeing that his attack had been blocked.

"Don't linger, retreat quickly!" Just as Jinbe and Naga were confronting Kizaru, Whitebeard, standing at the bow of the ship, shouted to them who were responsible for covering the rear.

"Hehe... Since our brother tells us to retreat, then we won't stay any longer! Marco, let's go!" Reina chuckled, forced Aokiji back with his sword, and shouted to Marco, who was not far away.

Although Marco was constantly suppressed by Akainu, he still had the ability to disengage. With his wings, if he wanted to leave, Akainu couldn't stop him at all.

"Damn it! Kuzan, don't let them get away! Freeze the sea!" Akainu roared and continued chasing after the Moby Dick.

Aokiji, who originally did not intend to continue the pursuit, had no choice but to follow behind Akainu. He raised his hands towards the sea and released a large amount of icy energy, instantly freezing the sea surface again.

Just as the ice was about to freeze the Moby Dick again, a flame suddenly appeared and blocked its path.

"Don't think that the Whitebeard Pirates are weak!" Second Division Commander, Fire Fist Ace, stood beside Whitebeard, slowly retracting the flames into his body, and then looked up at Aokiji and said.

"Hmph! Fire Fist Ace!" Akainu in the air, upon seeing Ace, felt an even greater killing intent in his eyes and raised his hand, ready to launch an attack on Ace.

But before he could make a move, several streams of water rushed towards him from the seabed. However, Akainu was no ordinary person. He quickly changed direction by tapping his feet in the air and dodged the attack of the water.

"Damn murlocs!" Without a doubt, no one but the murloc race could attack in this way.

The ones who intervened to stop Akainu were Aladdin's new Fishman Pirates and the 8th Division Captain Namur.

"Aladdin, take some men to meet up with Jinbe and Naga! Leave this to me!" Namiel said to Aladdin beside him as soon as he saw that Jinbe was being held up by Kizaru.

“Alright!” Aladdin didn’t waste any words. He was already more worried about Jinbe’s side, but assisting the Whitebeard Pirates in their retreat was a pre-arranged plan, and he couldn’t just leave, which was why he didn’t go over.

Now that Namur has spoken up, he can go there legitimately.

As for Akainu, who was still preparing to continue his attack, he stopped in his tracks when he saw Whitebeard staring at him. He was not confident that he could fight against everyone, including the Whitebeard Pirates, on his own. Even with Aokiji arriving soon behind him, he dared not act recklessly in front of Whitebeard.

Meanwhile, Kizaru, who was holding Jinbe and Naga back, didn't bother to entangle with the Fishman Pirates after seeing them arrive to provide support. He simply flashed a golden light and moved towards Akainu's side.

Kizaru's decision to abandon them wasn't because he couldn't defeat them, but because fish-men would retreat to the seabed whenever they encountered danger, and Kizaru simply didn't want to waste time.

With the help of the new Fishman Pirates, it won't be so easy for him to capture Naga alive, so it's better to go and hold off the Whitebeard Pirates. As long as they hold them off, these fishmen won't leave.

While the three admirals were pursuing the Whitebeard Pirates, Garp returned to Sengoku's side. He was somewhat puzzled by today's battle. If the Whitebeard Pirates had already attacked Marineford, they would not have retreated without achieving anything.

But things were strange; from the time they launched their attack to their retreat, less than an hour had passed. Although Marineford suffered considerable losses, they were still within a manageable range.

So what was the Whitebeard Pirates' purpose in launching the attack? Just to have fun? To dismantle their port's fortifications?

So when the Whitebeard Pirates retreated, Garp did not choose to pursue them, but instead came to Sengoku to ask if he had found anything.

"I don't know!" Sengoku shook his head in response to Garp's question, saying, "Besides the port, the Whitebeard Pirates also attacked the warehouse and destroyed all the supplies inside!"

"Is this their goal?" Karp asked after a moment's hesitation.

Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru both looked at Garp as if he were an idiot.

"Hahaha... well... I was just saying!" Garp scratched the back of his head and laughed.

He also knew that this possibility was almost impossible.

Who would go through all that trouble to raid Naval Headquarters and steal supplies? How confident would they have to be to do something like that?

To put it bluntly, with that kind of ability, wouldn't it be better to just rob any place than to rob the Navy Headquarters?

Therefore, the Whitebeard Pirates' true purpose was definitely not this. Destroying the Marine warehouse was just a smokescreen to cover up their real intentions.

Sengoku ignored the idiot Garp and looked towards the warehouse. Then, he froze and asked Garp, "Where is Zephyr?"

"He's at home, don't worry... I was drinking and chatting with him when the Whitebeard Pirates attacked the port!" Garp said, looking completely at ease.

“You mean…” Garp didn’t understand Sengoku’s meaning, but Vice Admiral Tsuru quickly figured out what Sengoku was trying to say.

“Very likely!” Sengoku nodded and replied.

"What are you talking about?" Garp asked, looking confused.

"Whether it is or not... we'll know once we send someone over to check!" Lieutenant General Azuru ignored Garp and instead spoke to Sengoku.

Sengoku nodded, gave an order to the naval soldier beside him, and the soldier immediately saluted and left.

"I suspect that the Whitebeard Pirates learned about Zephyr, so they came here... to rescue him!" Sengoku revealed his suspicions after the soldiers left.

“That’s impossible!” Karp shook his head and said, “Not many people knew that Zephyr was still alive, and they were all our generals! They have no reason to betray us!”

“It’s hard to say! I also hope that there isn’t a traitor among us, but if the other side is really after Zephyr, then…” Sengoku didn’t finish his sentence, but even Garp understood what he meant. If Zephyr was no longer alive, then it could only mean that there was a traitor among the high command of the Navy, and that this spy was a member of the Whitebeard Pirates.

This was absolutely terrible news for the Navy.

While they were waiting for news, Kizaru, who was chasing the Moby Dick ahead, unleashed his ultimate attack in mid-air!

"The Eight-Foot Jade Curved Jewel!"

Countless rays of light emanated from Kizaru's body and shot towards the Moby Dick.

His move has a wide range, great power, and high speed, making it extremely difficult to defend against. If even a single light source is missed, it could cause significant damage to the Moby Dick.

However, the Whitebeard Pirates were not afraid of Kizaru's attack.

"Phoenix - Flame of Rebirth!" Marco soared into the air and flew towards Kizaru's direction. Just as the light source approached, the flames on his body suddenly surged, blocking all the light sources.

"Phoenix Marco!" Kizaru, now back in human form, looked at Marco, who had blocked his attack in mid-air, and couldn't help but curl his lip, saying, "He's really a troublesome guy!"

Whether in close combat or long-range attacks, Kizaru is not afraid of Marco, but he is not confident in aerial combat, because Marco is a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user with the Mythical Zoan type, Phoenix form, and is especially good at aerial combat.
