One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Tens of thousands of marines, under the command of outstanding generals such as Shuzo, Binz, and Ain, formed an orderly attack formation.

The bravest and fiercest warriors charged ahead with swords and knives, while those with muskets provided cover fire from behind. Further back were medium-range artillery positions, and the fortresses towering over the island provided flanking support. Finally, the Neo pacifists precisely locked onto the pirates.

The layered and mutually supportive defensive strategy effectively blocked the Beast Pirates, the most ferocious fighting force in the New World, from advancing an inch beyond the defensive line.

Even someone as powerful as Jhin or Katakuri would be forced back by the overwhelming laser cannons if they tried to break through, or be tied down to other parts of the battlefield and forced to rescue their comrades who were in mortal danger.

Seeing that Zephyr, a force established less than half a year ago with just over ten thousand members, already possessed such astonishing combat power, even Kaido, who revered individual strength, couldn't help but feel admiration and became even more eager to recruit Zephyr.

If the Beasts Pirates had an admiral like Zephyr who was proficient in battle formations, their overall strength would increase by more than 20% or 30%.

With this thought in mind, Kaido's body swelled up, countless dragon scales covered his entire body, and under the barrage of laser beams, he raised the Eight Precepts wrapped in black and red lightning high, instantly rushing hundreds of meters forward and smashing them down on Zephyr's head.

"Zeff! Surrender!"

"Roaring Thunder Eight Trigrams!"

"It's still too early to say who will surrender, Kaido."

Zephyr removed and tossed aside the sunglasses he was wearing, gripped the mechanical arm, and the gears inside roared. Steam spewed out from the honeycomb-like holes, and crimson light, which made Kaido frown slightly, emanated from the gaps in the mechanical structure. It accelerated instantly and collided with Kaido's spiked club, which it had attacked later but arrived first.

"boom!"

A crimson explosion erupted, and the violent shock and impact slammed into the two combatants. Zephyr's strength was far inferior to Kaido's, and his body was inevitably smashed away by Kaido's club, flying backwards close to the ground and scraping a deep trench in the ground.

However, on the other side, Kaido's massive body was also sent flying backward by Zephyr's punch, rolling like a boulder across the cratered ground behind him, smashing through countless rocks before finally coming to a stop.

"Oh, this is..."

Kaido shook his drunken head, leaned on his spiked club, and got up from the ground. He looked at Zephyr, who was filling a purplish-red glass jar into a mechanical arm, and his lips curled up slightly, but his face turned ugly.

"Explosive rock? Zephyr, where did you get this dangerous thing?"

"I found it on this island." Zephyr popped a cigar into his mouth, snapped his fingers to light it, took a deep drag, exhaled two puffs of smoke from his nostrils, and grinned at Kaido, who was charging at him again. "Am I lucky, Kaido?"

"Do you think I'm a fool? I'll descend into the three realms! I'll summon Naraku!"

"Who knows?"

Zefa, with a cigar in his mouth, shattered the glass container inside the robotic arm, and the crimson flames instantly illuminated the entire island.

"Smashing Impact!"

Outside the defensive line, Jin, whose head was engulfed in flames, ignored the golden beams blasting at him and charged into the center of the Neo Navy's position. His second-generation Kitetsu, imbued with high-level Armament Haki, sliced ​​open the neck of a white pacifist, causing a violent conflict in the circuitry within its body. Then, it exploded and fell heavily to the ground.

He took a breath, looked up in the direction where Kaido and Zephyr were fighting, and a sense of unease rose in his eyes.

"This is bad. Brother Kaido still hasn't taken down that old guy Zephyr. If this continues, even if we win, we'll suffer heavy losses. The Navy's teamwork is too good. Compared to them, we're just a disorganized mess, all fighting our own battles in a chaotic manner."

While he was thinking, several more laser beams struck his tall body, sending Ember flying sideways.

"The Grip of Thorns!"

As soon as Jin's body hit the ground, thorny vines covered in sharp spikes burst forth from the ground beneath him, coiling around his body like pythons and binding him tightly.

"A fragile and vulnerable capability."

Jin sneered, and with a push of his arm, the dozens of vines binding his body snapped with a crackling sound.

The moment the vine snapped, a graceful female naval officer appeared in Jin's line of sight, thrusting a finger gun straight into his chest.

"Naive navy, my defenses are beyond the reach of even a naval admiral... What? What is this?"

The moment Ember's right hand touched his body, his pupils under the mask trembled violently, his body suddenly shrank, and the flames behind his head briefly disappeared.

But soon, he unleashed a powerful burst of Armament Haki in an attempt to counteract Ain's Rewind-Rewind Fruit power.

Jhin was not young, but the sudden rewind of twelve years caused changes in his strength and body, which inevitably led to a standstill in his movements.

In those few short seconds of astonishment, more than a dozen dazzling laser beams shot in from all directions and struck him squarely.

The Lunaria race possesses incredibly powerful racial talents, making them a crucial source of bloodline factors for the Navy's future creation of the Seraph, the most powerful weapon of war.

The flames burning behind their heads are the switches that control the strength of their body's defenses.

When the flames are high, Jhin's defense becomes extremely strong, comparable to Big Mom's Iron Balloon.

The flames disappeared, and his defense became no different from that of an ordinary person, but his speed increased greatly.

Just as the flames behind his head briefly disappeared due to his shock and disbelief, laser beams from more than a dozen pacifists struck him, instantly injuring him and sending his tall body flying like a rag doll.

"Great! We got him! Jhin the Wildfire!"

Binz was overjoyed and quickly used his Abundance Fruit ability to cause a large number of vines to grow on the ground, which entangled the heavily injured King who was flying backward, in order to capture this big boss of the Beasts Pirates alive.

"Stop joking, Navy!"

A dazzling laser beam cleaved through the wildly growing vines and roots, grazing past Ain and Binz, the blast sending them flying.

Quinn, whose body had transformed into a mechanical brachiosaurus, emitted green smoke from his palms. His wrists suddenly grew dozens of meters long, binding the coughing Jhin like chains and pulling him swiftly back to his own side.

Seeing the several scorch marks that pierced through King's body, Queen grabbed a constantly beeping Den Den Mushi and shouted with a grim expression, "This is bad, King! I think we should advise Kaido to retreat. The weapons factory on Ice Island is under attack by the G5 Marines! Only Princess Oni is there. If anything happens to her, Kaido will kill us."

"Damn it! I knew those Marines wouldn't stand idly by! That old bastard Zephyr is that brat's teacher! Queen, go and inform Kaido that the factory has been attacked."

Flames reappeared from the back of Ember's head as he stood up and spoke.

“Although I say that, G5’s forces alone should not be able to break through Ice Island’s defenses. Princess Ghost Princess may be a bit rebellious, but she is still very strong,” Quinn added.

"Don't forget that brat has been released from prison! Stop standing there, hurry up and tell Brother Kaido that we'll send people over to support him immediately!" King shouted.

Quinn was stunned, then pointed to his nose.

"Huh? Should I go?"

"Nonsense! If it wasn't you going, who else would it be but me?" Jhin's eyes widened, startling Quinn so much that he shrank back.

"If I disturb Kaido while he's having a good time, I'll die a horrible death."

Quinn was on the verge of tears.

Off the coast of Wano, outside Ice Island, one of the most important weapons processing plants under the Beasts Pirates, the G5 fleet, which had spent two days crossing the vast Totto Land sea, immediately aimed its dark cannons at the island and began to bombard it without any further words.

The fierce firepower of ten large warships instantly covered half of the ice island, blasting several weapon transport ships and several pirate ships anchored in the port into pieces.

The Beasts Pirates crew members who had just run out to question him were blown into the sky before they could even finish their sentence.

Its firepower is comparable to that of a typical Buster Call fleet, making it unmatched by any other pirate force in the world.

Only the Navy, and only the violent institutions supported by the World Government, the world's strongest regime, could possess such terrifying firepower.

In just over ten minutes, the pirate defenses on the ice island crumbled under the relentless bombardment of the warships.

When casualties exceed 40%, apart from clones without self-awareness, no army in the world can maintain its collapsing morale.

Even the most ferocious Beast Pirates in the New World couldn't do it.

The pirates on the island didn't even get a glimpse of the navy soldiers before being bombarded relentlessly, fleeing in a chaotic rout.

Only a small, most loyal elite force is still fighting back desperately.

"According to intelligence, there is an important figure of the Beasts Pirates on this island. As long as we capture her, Kaido will definitely abandon his attack on old man Zephyr and come to his rescue. Now is the time to race against time." Enel, gripping his golden spear, flew off the warship and rushed towards the blazing, icy island.

"That's the problem. With our strength, it's probably not so easy to take them down."

Luo's figure flashed, and he instantly left the warship, arriving on the island first. He looked up at the tall figure that appeared on the opposite snow slope.

"Kaido's daughter, Oni-hime Yamato."

Lightning shot from behind Law, coalescing into Enel's form on his right.

In front of the two was a tall woman wearing a demon mask.

She has long, gradient white hair that gradually changes from white to green and then to blue from the top of her head to the ends, with her sideburns falling naturally to her chest.

The loose, sleeveless, form-fitting samurai outfit was stretched taut by the full, voluptuous lining underneath.

She wore a huge shimenawa (traditional Japanese rope) tied around her waist, just like Kaido's, a red pleated long skirt, and bare feet in a pair of red strappy wooden clogs.

The most striking features of the woman were her pair of fiery red demon horns and the jet-black spiked club she carried.

Furthermore, Enel and Law noticed that there was a heavy pair of sea stone handcuffs on the other's wrists.

"Are you Enel, the Thor who fought Ace to a draw?"

Yamato calmly gazed at Enel, who was about the same height as her, and slowly spun the spiked club in her hand before holding it in her grasp.

“Yamato, we know you want to rebel against the violent rule your father imposed on Wano Country, and you also want to break free from the shackles of being the daughter of an evil dragon. We can help you.”

Luo looked at the black, domineering aura that slowly emerged from Yamato in his hand and said in a deep voice.

Yamato shifted his gaze from Enel to Law, then slowly shook his head, "You can't help me, you're too weak."

"Why waste words with her? We're not here for idle chatter."

Enel's eyes were icy cold, and electricity surged across his body. He raised his hand and unleashed a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket, heading straight for Yamato's body.

"One hundred million volts of discharge! Thunder Dragon!"

The lightning bolt, as thick as a water bucket, transformed into a roaring thunder dragon, lunging down at Yamato with its claws outstretched.

"You brute! If you can solve a problem without bloodshed, why fight to the death? That's why I hate that bastard Rorschach; he's led you all astray!"

Luo's face darkened, and the surgical space in his hand spun, instantly opening up to cover an area of ​​100 meters. He pulled at Yamato, who was still standing in place, trying to lift Yamato up and throw him towards the lightning dragon that Enel had shot out.

Then, Yamato's body was like a thousand-meter-high mountain, and no matter how Law used the teleportation ability of the Op-Op Fruit, he remained firmly in place without moving an inch.

Luo broke out in a cold sweat. "Damn it! Be careful! Her domineering aura is very strong!"

Before she finished speaking, the surgical space covering a radius of 100 meters suddenly exploded. Yamato stomped heavily on the ground in front of her with the wooden clogs on her right foot. A violent black and red energy expanded and spread from her body, turning into a rolling shock that crushed Luo's surgical space.

The snow slope beneath her feet exploded, scattering snow everywhere. Her tall figure left a blurry afterimage in mid-air as she swung her large club, smashing it into the head of the lightning dragon, piercing through it section by section, and then emerging from its tail. To Enel's horrified perception, the club struck his abdomen.

"Thunderous Eight Trigrams!"

The spiked club, imbued with powerful Armament Haki, sent Enel flying instantly.

While in mid-air, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yamato looked at Enel, who had been sent flying by his attack, with disappointment in his eyes.

"With this level of strength, you think you can defeat Ace? The title of Thor is largely undeserved."

"Arrogant woman!"

Enel's face darkened, and his flying body expanded wildly, instantly transforming into a lightning Buddha over ten meters tall, unleashing a surging palm strike towards Yamato below.

"Three hundred million volts of discharge! Thunderbird!"
