Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

Half a month later, Reina's points finally approached one million. As long as he completes one more cycle, he will be able to exchange for the Black Emperor's power.

However, just as he was about to accumulate enough points in one go, Whitebeard sent someone to inform him to go to the banquet square.

"Brother, is something the matter?" Reina asked as he arrived at the banquet square.

"Yes, Dragon sent a message asking for our cooperation. They plan to go to the central island again!" Whitebeard nodded and replied.

"Huh?" Reina was taken aback and asked, "They found a way to break the barrier?"

"I don't know, but Dragon seems very confident this time. In addition to us, he has also contacted the Navy. It seems that he is indeed well prepared this time!" Whitebeard said with a light laugh.

"How does he need us to cooperate with them?" Reina asked after thinking for a moment.

"Hold off Venerable Extinction and Venerable Master, or at least hold off Venerable Extinction so he doesn't have a chance to come back to help!" Whitebeard said in a deep voice. "Besides them, the Sea Guard will also cooperate with us to attack the extraterrestrial visitors. However, they can only be considered as cover; we are the main force because Garp of the Sea Guard will be acting with them!"

"Oh? Luffy of the Straw Hat Pirates, Shanks of the Red-Haired Pirates, and Garp of the Sea Guard—with that kind of fighting power, they could even put up a fight against two Venerables!" Reina said with a smile.

“No, besides them… there’s me!” Whitebeard shook his head and said.

"What?" Reina was taken aback and immediately refused, "Big brother, you're going to the central island? No way, it's too dangerous there!"

"Gurararara... So Dragon wants me to stay at sea as their hidden support force, ensuring their safe retreat! So you'll have to deal with the Slayer yourself!" Whitebeard laughed and said, "If the Master-Master also comes to help, Aokiji and Fujitora from the Marine Guard will arrive immediately! At that time, the three of you should be able to hold them off without any problem!"

"When do they plan to make their move?" Reina thought for a moment and then said, "I feel like my strength is about to break through. After this breakthrough, I should be able to increase my strength. Even without the Sharingan, I should be able to fight against the Destroyer!"

Upon hearing this, Whitebeard's face lit up with joy, and he said, "Alright, I'll make them wait a few more days. You should break through as soon as possible!"

Although Reina was already very strong at this point, Whitebeard still firmly believed that he could still break through to a higher level.

As a result, the plan, which was originally scheduled to begin immediately, was postponed for several days because of Reina.

Reina also tried his best to accumulate points in the shortest amount of time, hoping to advance Black Emperor's ability as soon as possible.

According to news from Dragon, Kaido's forces probably won't be able to hold out for much longer.

A few days later, when Reina emerged from the Tower of Trials, battered and bruised once again, he had his maid inform Whitebeard that they could begin their operation.

So Whitebeard didn't even come to see Reiner; he went straight to meet up with Dragon and the others using the teleporter.

Whitebeard originally wanted to go alone, but the captains and Reyna wouldn't allow it, so he had no choice but to agree to take Jozu with him.

Whitebeard believed that his trip was merely for logistical support and posed no real danger; it would have been better to leave Jozu behind to help Reina.

However, he couldn't resist the persuasion of Reina and the captains, so he had no choice but to take Joz along as they suggested.

Having emerged from the Tower of Trials, Reina had accumulated enough points. After resting for a while and replenishing his food, he exchanged his points for the Black Emperor's advancement ability in the shop.

While he was eating, Marco, Ace, Frank, and the others arrived at his side. After all, as the vice-captain, they naturally wanted to witness Reina's improvement in strength.

However, they did not know that Reina had already advanced while he was resting.

"How's it going? Are you about to advance?" Marco asked as soon as he saw Reina finish eating.

“I’ve already advanced!” Reina replied with a smile.

"Huh? Did the first mate come back after he finished his advancement?" Ace asked in surprise.

Reina smiled and nodded, which was considered an answer to Ace.

He couldn't tell them that he only needed points to advance, so he simply said that it was better to advance during cultivation.

Chapter 1212 Demon Princess Yamato

After advancing to the Black Emperor's level, Reina did not rush to launch an attack. Instead, he summoned the captains, leaving Lakyo to guard Crescent Island, and then led the rest of the team to the front line.

He also took this opportunity to recover from his injury.

Meanwhile, at the Straw Hat crew's base, a pirate ship was slowly approaching.

At the port, Nami, Vivi, and Usopp seemed to be waiting for something.

"They're here!" Nami said softly as she saw the pirate ship approaching.

As Nami finished speaking, the soldiers around the port began to tense up and become on alert.

"Nami, why did that guy suddenly come here?!" Usopp swallowed hard and asked.

"I don't know. Maybe she heard about Kaido and that's why she came. So we still need to be on guard!" Nami shook her head and replied.

Princess Vivi looked at the pirate ship with great curiosity, as there seemed to be a figure standing at the bow.

A moment later, the pirate ship slowly approached the port, and Princess Vivi finally saw the people at the bow of the ship.

A woman with a pair of horns on her head, an exaggerated-looking spiked club on her back, and dressed in traditional Wano Country clothing, was standing at the bow of the pirate ship.

"Nami, long-nosed guy... long time no see!" The newcomer greeted Nami and Usopp with a smile as soon as she saw them waiting for her.

"Yamato, why are you here instead of in Wano Country? Is this your first time at sea?" Nami immediately put on a smile and asked.

"Heave-ho~" Yamato jumped, eagerly leaping from the ship to the port, then gave Nami a hug and said with a smile, "I heard that Luffy is in trouble, and many of the returning samurai said that the battle here is very difficult, so Momonosuke and I discussed it and decided to come and help Luffy!"

The person who came was Yamato, who had always been in Wano Country. After Kaido was defeated in Wano Country, Yamato stayed there and acted as the guardian deity of Wano Country.

"Nami, is this Yamato?" Weiwei asked curiously from the side.

Nami and Usopp nodded and said with a smile, "Let me introduce you. This is Yamato, the guardian deity of Wano Country, the child of Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, and known as the Demon Princess!"

"Kaido?" Princess Vivi couldn't help but exclaim.

Yamato, somewhat embarrassed, said, "I have nothing to do with Kaido anymore. I am now the guardian deity of the Kozuki family!"

Nami smiled and didn't explain much to Princess Vivi. Instead, she turned to Yamato and introduced her, "This is also one of our partners, Princess Vivi, the princess of the desert kingdom of Alabasta! She's here to help us and also to hone her skills before returning to inherit the throne of the Kingdom of Alabasta!"

"Wow, that's amazing!" Yamato looked at Princess Vivi with admiration.

In her view, being able to become a king must be an extraordinary achievement.

The group chatted as they walked toward the town on the island, which was the Straw Hat crew's base, so the entire town was their territory.

However, when they arrived at the center of the island, someone was already waiting for them there.

"Empress Hancock!" Before Nami could even introduce her, Yamato had already uttered the name of the person in front of him.

"So you're the one who came to join Luffy's crew?" Hancock was quite agitated upon seeing that Yamato was actually a woman.

Yamato frowned. Although that was a valid point, what the other party said was rather unreasonable.

"Hancock, Yamato is Luffy's friend, not what you think. If you do anything unreasonable to her, you'll have a hard time explaining yourself when Luffy comes back!" Nami said helplessly.

"Hmph! I won't do anything!" Hancock hesitated for a moment, then left with a haughty look on her face.

"What's wrong with this guy?" Yamato asked, completely bewildered.

Because she could tell that the other party seemed very unhappy about her arrival; their hostile gaze was obvious at a glance.

"Pfft, hahaha... That's hilarious!" After Nami's explanation, Yamato couldn't help but burst into laughter.

“Nami, Robin, and I have all been through similar experiences, so you don’t need to worry too much. Hancock is very strong; she was one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Later, the World Government abolished the Seven Warlords, and instead of joining the Whitebeard Pirates, she joined Luffy’s Straw Hat Grand Fleet, which significantly boosted the Straw Hat Grand Fleet’s reputation. For that alone, we should be very grateful to her!” Princess Vivi said with a light laugh.

“I think she should be more confident; she looks very pretty!” Yamato nodded in agreement.

"Of course, after all, she is the Pirate Empress, hailed as the most beautiful female pirate in the world!" Usopp said with exaggerated gestures.

"By the way, where's Luffy? Did he go to the front lines to fight?" It was only then that Yamato realized that he hadn't seen Luffy.

Princess Vivi and Nami exchanged a glance, unsure whether to tell Yamato the information.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Yamato asked in surprise when he saw Nami's slightly hesitant expression.

Nami sighed and finally decided to tell Yamato what had happened.

"So... extraterrestrials kidnapped my father...?" Yamato listened to Nami's words, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "Are Luffy and the others off to rescue my father now?"

“Yes, we’ve asked the samurai of Wano Country. Although Kaido did what he did back then, he’s still a force capable of resisting extraterrestrial visitors. So the samurai have all agreed to the plan to rescue Kaido!” Nami hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said.

"I understand!" Yamato nodded, then asked, "Is the defense here sufficient? If Luffy and the others leave, won't our forces be reduced?"

“Right now, Sanji and the other captains are mainly holding the front line. If the enemy doesn’t launch a large-scale attack, we shouldn’t have too much of a problem!” Princess Vivi replied.

"So, is there anything I can do to help? Since Luffy and the others have already set off, and I can't catch up, please let me go to the front lines and do my part to defend the area!" Yamato said earnestly.

She nodded with a hint of delight. With Yamato's addition, their high-level forces on the front lines would be even stronger. She had heard about the Revolutionary Army's situation before, and if it weren't for Reina's timely support, it would have caused enormous losses.

Chapter 1213 The Crisis of the Destroyer

With Yamato joining the crew, the Straw Hat crew's strength has increased once again. However, this has nothing to do with Reina, as he has already arrived at the front lines and is making preparations for the battle.

"First mate, everything is ready, we can launch the attack at any time!" A messenger approached Reina and said in a deep voice.

"Very good, pass on the word: launch the general offensive at noon. Also, connect me to the Coast Guard's Den Den Mushi!" Reina nodded and replied.

His injuries have basically fully recovered. Although he still cannot use his Sharingan, this time, although they were the main attackers, they were only buying time for Dragon and the others.

Soon the messenger handed the connected Den Den Mushi to Reina.

"Is this Lord Sengoku? This is Reina!" Holding the Den Den Mushi, Reina said softly, "Are you ready?"

“Of course, the plan can be executed at any time!” Sengoku’s voice came through the Den Den Mushi.

"We'll launch our attack at noon, and you'll start a quarter of an hour earlier. Is that alright?" Reina nodded and asked.

"can!"

"Great, then let's stay in touch!"

After Reina finished speaking, he hung up the Den Den Mushi and told the captains to prepare for battle.

Soon, the appointed time arrived. Reina did not ask whether the Navy had launched an attack as agreed, because no matter what the Navy did, he had to buy time for Whitebeard.

Countless whale ships set off from the front lines, heading towards the island of the extraterrestrial visitors.

Before they could even get close, the extraterrestrial visitors had already spotted them and launched an artillery barrage.

As pirates, they were very familiar with this kind of artillery battle, so they didn't take it to heart at all. The other side didn't intend to stop them with artillery fire either; they were just trying to buy some time.

They had already received the news that the Navy had also launched an attack, so they needed to make adjustments immediately.

The Venerable One, who was in command, sensed a conspiracy.

Soon, the Destroyer received news from the front that Akame Reyner of the Whitebeard Pirates had appeared, and that Admirals Aokiji and Fujitora of the Marines had also appeared at the front.

The Extinction Venerable frowned. He had anticipated Reina's appearance, but the fact that the Sea Guard Army had sent two generals at once made him somewhat unsure.

Because the battles of the Sea Guard Army are not based on individual strength, but on legion warfare. Only when strong individuals appear on their side will they send out corresponding strong individuals to resist.
