"Quick! Everyone, start landing!" Seeing that the navy's defense system on the sea had been breached, the pirate alliance leader excitedly roared.
With the defensive forces on the outer sea of God Valley being routed, a large number of pirates officially landed on God Valley and engaged in battle with the navy waiting in full force at the port.
Due to the sheer number of pirates, as soon as they entered the port, they immediately showed their powerful destructive power. If it weren't for the help of some cannons, the navy would probably have been directly routed by the pirates in an instant.
"Where are the reinforcements? Why haven't they sent reinforcements yet?" A navy non-coms hacked a pirate to the ground with a single sword stroke and then loudly asked his nearby comrade.
But there was no reply. When he looked up, he found that there were only pirates around him, and all his comrades had fallen to the ground.
On the other side, at the top of God Valley, in a luxurious palace, several Celestial Dragons with bubble rings on their heads were gathered together.
"Have you contacted the Navy Headquarters? Tell them to hang all those pirates who dare to attack us there!" A Celestial Dragon roared angrily.
"Don't worry! These mere pirates won't affect the safety of the lords!" A tall and slender man in a black suit respectfully said.
"Good! With you by my side, I feel much more at ease. As the most powerful combatant of CP0, having you around is a great relief!" Celestial Dragons usually didn't treat CP agents well, but the situation was different now, so the leading Celestial Dragon praised his subordinate with a slight smile.
"I've heard that the navy has made alternative arrangements. I think these mere pirates shouldn't be able to cause much damage to God Valley. After all, the armed forces here are not weak! And just now, the navy has ordered the nearby navy to rush here for rescue at full speed. By then, they'll surround the pirates. I think they won't even be able to reach the city before they're finished!" The black-suited CP0 member replied with a smile.
Just as the Celestial Dragons were getting a bit nervous, under the pressure of the Celestial Dragons, Lieutenant General Solaris had to launch an attack ahead of schedule.
Suddenly, the navy in the city and the previously hidden cannons opened fire at full force, catching the pirate alliance off guard.
The entire port of God Valley had completely turned into a battlefield. The navy and the pirates clashed again. But as time went on, the situation became more and more unfavorable for the pirate alliance. More and more navy came from all directions and surrounded them at the port.
"Damn it, why hasn't the Rocks Pirates arrived yet?" The pirate alliance leader wiped the blood off his face and looked at his comrades around him. Their faces were all full of exhaustion, and more and more pirates had fallen to the ground and couldn't get up.
"Boss, what should we do?" A burly pirate came to his side and asked, "Victory is just around the corner. As long as we charge into the city, we'll have reinforcements then!"
He understood what his subordinates meant. Being former slaves themselves, they believed that once they freed those slaves, the freed slaves would definitely join them. By then, they would have a new army!
"Alright, I'll lead the men to charge again. You guys cover me!" the leader of the pirate alliance gritted his teeth, nodded, and said.
"Guys, victory is within reach! Don't be scared by these marines. Don't forget our goal! Follow me and kill!" With a roar from the leader of the pirate alliance, the pirates' morale went up again.
However, just when they were about to break through and fight their way out of the port, a young senior marine captain suddenly blocked their path with a group of marines.
"Guys, this is the last obstacle. Break through them!" the leader of the pirate alliance shouted and was about to launch another attack.
But that young senior marine captain was extremely powerful. All the pirates who got close to him were knocked to the ground.
"Pirates! This isn't a place for you to come!" the young senior marine captain coolly looked at the leader of the pirate alliance and said in a deep voice.
"Not a place for us to come? Hahaha... That's the biggest joke I've ever heard! Marines, you can't stop us! Kill!" The surrounding pirates laughed out loud as if they'd heard the funniest thing.
"Humph! You stubborn guys! Since you're being like this, I'll send you all to Impel Down in the name of Monkey D. Dragon!" the young senior marine captain shouted.
That's right, the person who came was Monkey D. Dragon, the son of the marine Garp and the current senior captain of the headquarters.
He was currently on Vice Admiral Zephyr's ship, carrying out a mission with Zephyr whose fleet was nearby. He came here to purchase supplies and, by chance, encountered the pirates attacking God Valley, so he came over to help.
"D?" The leader of the pirate alliance was quite surprised after hearing Dragon's words. But this moment of distraction got him kicked by Dragon and sent flying a long distance.
"Boss!"
"Damn it! How dare you attack our boss. You don't want to live anymore, do you?"
"Guys, take down this marine!"
Seeing this, the surrounding pirates rushed towards Dragon one after another.
"Damn it, we can't fall here!" The leader of the pirate alliance slowly got up from the ground and looked at Dragon who was in the fight.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
At this moment, there were sudden and intense explosions around God Valley.
"What's going on?" Everyone was startled and had no idea what had happened.
"Sir, it's the pirates! Some pirates are attacking from another direction. The defense there has been breached!" In the marine command post in the God Valley area, a communications soldier reported to Vice Admiral Solaris.
"The defense system has been breached? What on earth is going on? Why did the pirates suddenly attack? Who are they exactly?" Vice Admiral Solaris was extremely angry and roared.
"We haven't figured it out yet..." the liaison soldier said fearfully.
"Damn it!"
"Wait a minute..." Just as Vice Admiral Solaris was about to say something, suddenly, he saw the image transmitted by the Den Den Mushi. He immediately froze, and his face turned extremely ugly. He muttered to himself, "This... How is this possible? Is it them? The Rocks Pirates!"
"Sir?" The liaison officer looked at his superior in confusion.
"Huff~ Issue an order. All troops are to be mobilized immediately to eliminate the pirates at the port first! Also, notify the special operations unit and Major General Mike. Tell them to set off right away and head to these four locations to intercept the enemies! Tell them to be careful. The opponents are no small fry! Even if it means death, they have to hold the enemies back!" Vice Admiral Solaris took a deep breath and loudly gave the order.
He knew what it meant for the members of the Rocks Pirates to appear here. Now what he needed to do was to immediately inform the Celestial Dragons to retreat at once. If they stayed here any longer, he no longer had the ability to protect them!
"Yes, sir!" The messenger clearly also understood the seriousness of the situation, so after saluting, he immediately ran out!
Vice Admiral Solaris looked up at the surveillance screen that had turned into snowflakes, then stood up directly and headed towards the luxurious palace where the Celestial Dragons were.
Meanwhile, the pirates who were fighting with Dragon were first stunned, then looked at their leader.
"Haha... Brothers, the reinforcements are here. The Navy is in big trouble! Kill them all for me!" The leader of the Pirate Alliance was overjoyed and shouted loudly.
"I didn't expect you guys to have reinforcements! But it doesn't matter even if more people come. A bunch of rabble can't take on a regular army!" Dragon shook his head and slowly walked towards the other side.
"A bunch of rabble? Do you know who's coming? The Rocks Pirates... Have you ever heard of them?" The leader of the Pirate Alliance said with a big laugh.
"Damn it. You actually allied with the Rocks Pirates? You pirates are all scoundrels. Do you know how many civilians in this city will be massacred because of your greed? As long as I'm here today, your plan will never succeed!" With that, Dragon no longer held back and began to quickly eliminate the surrounding pirates, advancing towards the leader of the Pirate Alliance.
"Big brother, you go first! Leave this to us!" Several burly pirates blocked Dragon and shouted to their leader.
However, the leader of the Pirate Alliance didn't leave. Instead, he looked at Dragon and said, "Because of us? So many civilians died? Then show me! Where are the civilians?"
"It's because we stopped you!" Dragon kicked a pirate flying with one kick, then rushed towards the pirate leader.
"Hahaha..." The leader of the Pirate Alliance burst out laughing after hearing Dragon's words. Then he tore off his clothes, showed his back to Dragon, and said, "Our goal... isn't to rob treasures or anything! It's just to rescue those so - called civilians you mentioned. As a just Navy officer, I really want to know what you think about this?"
Long was stunned and stood rooted to the spot. Then, he looked at the pirates around him in disbelief. They slowly started taking off their clothes. He saw the hoof-prints of the Celestial Dragons on all the pirates' bodies. Long didn't know what to do at the moment.
"Yo, Navy! What's the matter? Why stop fighting? Come on, kill us! That's what you guys always do, ain't it?" the leader of the pirate alliance asked Long, looking arrogant.
Long just kept his mouth shut.
He had long been dissatisfied with the darkness within the Navy. He had also asked his father, Garp. But according to Garp, it was impossible for there to be no darkness in the world at all.
If he could accept some of those things, when it came to the matter of the Celestial Dragons, Long really couldn't accept it. So his approach was to stay away from those Celestial Dragons as much as possible, because that's what Garp had told him.
But could he really stay away? Long asked himself, and the answer he got was that he couldn't. His sense of justice wouldn't allow him to turn a blind eye.
