The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

Vista, the fifth division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, also held the two rapiers in both hands, smiling as he stroked his mustache.

"Things have already come to this point..."

【Momosasagi】Gion calmly drew her Kinpira from her waist. "Further words are pointless!!"

The sharp edge of a swordsman is vividly displayed here!

Meanwhile, not far from the battlefield on Momousagi's side...

"Hey, hey, hey, weren't you all facing off against generals before?!"

Wearing an earthy yellow outfit, a small cowboy hat, and a toothpick in his mouth, [Tea Pig] Kake, also a candidate for general, rubbed his messy hair with a troubled expression.

"Why are they targeting us now?!"

"Of course..."

A burly, muscular man with a broad chest and dark skin, clad in armor, swayed his shoulders, and then...

Bang! ! !

The forceful collision of their arms produced a dull thud that vibrated the eardrums of those around them.

In particular, those arms, which had transformed into sparkling diamonds, made one feel an even stronger sense of their incredibly solid and resilient defense.

With a sharp, angular face, no eyebrows, and an appearance and clothing strikingly similar to that of the Aztec Whitebeard, the third division captain, [Diamond] Jozu made no attempt to conceal his power.

"You guys are easier to fight than the generals! 々〃!"

Joz's words were so direct and blunt, showing no respect for Gage, that it made Gage's face twitch.

"Easier to fight than a general, huh...?"

Jiaji remained silent and lit a cigarette for himself.

Although they are currently candidates for general, they are still quite far from being true generals.

However~~~

"Being mocked by a mere pirate really makes me feel a bit uncomfortable!!"

His narrowed eyes slowly opened, revealing a hint of cold glint within.

This is a high-level battle between a candidate for admiral and a division commander under the Whitebeard Pirates, and the battle has officially begun.

In addition to these battlefields, other positions on all fronts are also flourishing.

The other division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates, numbered 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, also engaged in a battle against the other vice admirals of the Navy.

Some of the more formidable ones even have fleet commanders working in pairs.

The goal is not to defeat the enemy to the greatest extent possible, but simply to contain and restrict them, preventing these naval commanders from roaming and providing support. That would be the greatest victory.

This would tie down the core forces of the navy, creating space for them to maneuver.

The remaining fleet captains, along with numerous revolutionary soldiers, will be able to easily reap the lives of the guards!

This is the strategic plan jointly decided by the Revolutionary Army and the Whitebeard Pirates!

The goal is to dismantle the World Government comprehensively, piece by piece, using a hard knife to cut away its flesh!

Such tactics are easy to counter; as long as sufficient combat power is available, they can be easily neutralized.

However, considering the current combat strength of the navy...

"Assuming the Knights of God won't easily mobilize, the Navy Headquarters' vice admiral-level forces alone are insufficient to contend with us."

"Especially under the previous wave of communism, many forces of the Navy Headquarters have withdrawn from the Navy."

"There are also issues within the Navy, such as the doves' disapproval of such a war, which has led to internal rifts."

"This all demonstrates that the World Government no longer possesses sufficient power to counter our plan!"

High in the sky, the revolutionary army's Northern Army commander, "Raven" Karas, wearing a black feather coat and surrounded by crows, narrowed his eyes as he looked at the scene below.

Then, seizing the opportunity, the black feather coat instantly transformed into a flock of black crows, carrying him along as they swooped down!

Black feathers swept past, and half of his body moved at incredible speed through the formation of the navy and the escort forces.

"Soot Raven!!"

A restlessness stirred in its throat, and from the bird's beak, which was fitted with a special megaphone, it slowly uttered such a word.

In an instant, his robe tore apart, and crows broke free.

He himself transformed into a wisp of black dust, silently passing through the crowd.

Then, they regrouped at the very back.

"Coal Ash, Sword Blade..."

The pitch-black crows and dust instantly transformed into sharp swords, piercing straight through the crowd!

"Ten Thousand Swords Slash!! Ten!"

Even in the darkest of darkness, it can still forge a sharp blade, pierce through justice, and instantly suppress the entire scene!

Karasu, commander of the Northern Army of the Revolutionary Army, is a Logia-type Devil Fruit user with the Smooth-Smooth Fruit ability!

"Laser Shooter!!"

Lindbergh, the Confederate army commander in mid-air, also brought out his proud invention and fired beams of powerful lasers that were no less potent than those of the pacifists.

Powered by its aerial thrusters, it traversed the battlefield rapidly, raining down laser beams that inflicted tons of damage on the navy and escort forces!

The revolutionary army commanders, too, were carrying out this war through their actions!

~~~~~~~~~

[A huge thank you again to the generous user 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch'! They've given me yet another generous donation around 11 AM today, countless times in total. I'm truly grateful for their support!!!]

1015, you should just calm down. It's an unacceptable fact, a change in identity.

"Come on, come on, come on!!"

Jasmine, the commander of the Western Army, was also constantly using his huge bulldozer blade to turn the battlefield platform that had been painstakingly built on the red earth into a pitted and uneven landscape.

At the same time, while pushing, he also seemed a little embarrassed, and kept saying:

"Ugh, you guys, where are you looking?!"

Boom! !

The powerful force of the Push-Push Fruit caused the ground to tumble and shake continuously.

"Go forth and display your immense power!"

The Eastern Army commander, Bello Betty, did not participate in the fighting, but simply waving her flag was enough to have a far greater effect than intervening in the war!

The waves of encouragement she generated poured into the soldiers fighting bravely on the field as she waved the flag in her hand.

The result was that in the battles against the Navy and the Royal Navy, the Whitebeard Pirates and the Revolutionary Army gained an absolute advantage.

Even when facing those general candidates and elite vice admirals, the squad leaders and captains of Fleet 010 bravely took the lead and suppressed the opponent.

Of course, some of these were naval personnel who were only going through the motions.

For example, there were the dove generals who were originally quite resistant to this war, such as Huoshaoshan and Squirrel.

While the guards and naval soldiers were caught up in a frenzy of looting, I also wanted to do something for them.

However, when two or three Whitebeard Pirates division commanders or fleet captains intercepted them.

And when they were suppressed by that amplified power, they stopped thinking about anything else.

As long as they can protect themselves and hold off the enemy, they have already contributed their value in this war.

The pirates on the other side also sensed their intentions and were happy to play along.

Their main task is to keep these vice admirals from moving around, and if they can do that, that would be the best thing ever.

After all, the main actors who truly determined the outcome of such a war were not them.

"Oh my, that's really ridiculously strong."

Marine Admiral Kizaru Borsalino, standing on a high place, spoke in a strange, pursed voice:

"They're like a bunch of monsters, so scary!!"

As he spoke, he slowly raised his hands, preparing to assume his most distinctive and classic signature starting stance.

"The Eight-Foot Jade Hook..."

"You'd better just shut up for a bit~~~"

Wow~! ! !

The pale yellow flames of immortality burned across the sky, mingled with the soft laughter of the phoenix.

With a striking pineapple-shaped head, it flapped its wings, which burned with immortal blue flames, and soared in front of Kizaru.

"Working so hard for the world government is nothing but a thankless task."

"A smart person like you should know what choice to make."

Little Ma smiled and said something with hidden meaning.

"Should I stop you for just a second?"

Yes, these words were bluntly stated to Kizaru, nothing could be more direct.

But~~~

Kizaru glanced at Marco silently, and the lights that had appeared in his hand... slowly dissipated.

Well, he was very obedient... well, not exactly obedient, but Marco's words really resonated with him.

What's the point of fighting like this every day?!

Isn't it great to just sit in the office, drink tea, read the newspaper, and collect your salary on time every day?!

(cadf)

As a working-class person, Kizaru is extremely good at slacking off and taking it easy.

Moreover, it seems that even the Revolutionary Army and pirates on the other side have a vague understanding of this trait of his.

In that case... it would indeed be a good thing for him.

After all, he believed in ambiguous justice, which meant that he could stand on the side of justice as long as it was the righteous one.

If the revolutionary army represents justice and wins such a war, then he could simply switch sides.

Even if I might not be able to enter the inner circle because of the sensitivity of my identity, it doesn't matter.

As long as he can continue to drink tea, read the newspaper, and live the same carefree and leisurely life as before, that's enough.

Kizaru had thought things through very thoroughly, and therefore, when facing Marco, he knew what measures to take.

Just like during the last Marineford War, we can continue with the same two-on-one matchup.

If necessary, they can reenact the scene of themselves being kicked away.

Well, to prevent the World Government from having the last laugh and us from being purged, we have to put in some effort.

Thus, this high-level combatant within the navy was effectively blocked.

Besides him, there are two other generals who are also combat-ready.

"This is truly a situation that's hard to describe..."

Green Bull [Wildgrass], who witnessed all of this, truly didn't know what to say.

He is an absolute hawk, adheres to "absolute justice," admires Akainu's unwavering spirit, and is ruthless towards pirates himself.

They strongly support the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, believing that people from non-World Government member states like Wano Country are not entitled to human rights.

In his view, humans have survived to this day by stepping on species that are "inferior" to themselves.

Non-member states are equated with "inferior" countries. Only by trampling non-member states underfoot can people live with peace of mind. "Discrimination" is equivalent to peace of mind.

However, as things stand at the moment...

It seems that this group of people has now become the "inferior people" they always looked down upon...

The world is changing too fast, and he finds it difficult to adapt to the change in his identity all at once.

Moreover, they find it even more difficult to accept this; the disparity is far too obvious.
