The New Marine Headquarters Incident!
Although they had fully recovered, they still felt overwhelmed by Imu's rage.
"Acknowledge your guilt?" Imu sneered, his tone full of disdain. "What good is admitting guilt? Your stupidity and incompetence have already cost me a great deal of precious energy. Your actions have shattered the existing balance and plunged the World Government into an unprecedented crisis!"
He paced slowly, each step seeming to pound on the hearts of the Five Elders, making them feel unprecedented pressure. "You think you can defeat someone I'm not even absolutely certain of winning with your strength alone? How naive!"
"Imu! We..." The Five Elders wanted to explain, but found they couldn't find a suitable reason. They had indeed underestimated the Straw Hat Pirates's strength and overestimated their ability to control the situation.
What I didn't expect was that Haku was able to get to Bullet Island so quickly!
"Enough!" Imu suddenly interrupted them, his voice filled with unwavering resolve. "Now, I want you to atone for your sins and stop the Revolutionary Army at all costs. At the same time, you must pay absolute attention to Haku's movements; his power has far exceeded our expectations! We must keep his whereabouts under our control."
Upon hearing this, the Five Elders felt a chill run down their spines. They knew that Imu's orders were absolute authority and could not be disobeyed in any way. Therefore, they all nodded in agreement, indicating that they would do their utmost to complete the mission.
"Go, with my will, and firmly grasp this world in our own hands!" Imu waved his hand, signaling the Five Elders to step down. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, as if foreshadowing an even fiercer storm to come.
The Five Elders accepted the order and left, their hearts filled with an unprecedented sense of urgency.
They knew that this mission was not only to make amends for their mistakes, but also to prove their worth and regain Imu's trust and trust.
After everyone else had left, Imu muttered, "Your next target is the Navy, isn't it!"
That's right!
When Imu resurrected the Five Elders, Haku also used her spatial powers to arrive at New Marineford!
Before Haku arrived, the entire Marine Headquarters was under martial law, awaiting Haku arrival!
However, faced with Haku's sudden appearance, the sky above New Marineford seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds, and an atmosphere of tension and unease permeated every corner.
The naval soldiers, their expressions solemn and their steps hurried, swiftly and systematically carried out various defense orders, ensuring that every inch of land and every stretch of sea was under surveillance.
The massive warships were lined up neatly in the Harbor, their cannons pointing skyward, as if ready to unleash devastating firepower at any moment.
In the sky, several fighter jets roared past, carrying the most advanced weapon systems, drawing silver trails in the clouds and weaving an impenetrable net over this sea area.
The sea is filled with all kinds of warships and surface vessels, which patrol silently, using sonar and radar systems to monitor the surrounding sea area at all times, ensuring that no movement can escape the navy's notice.
The entire New Marineford seemed to have transformed into a massive war fortress, with every corner exuding an inviolable majesty.
All of this was in preparation for dealing with the legendary figure who was said to be able to shake the balance of the world— Haku.
In the center of the Marine Headquarters, Fleet Admiral Akainu, who had recovered in the Sabaody Archipelago, stood on a high observation platform, his gaze fixed intently on the distance.
His expression was unusually solemn, a mixture of apprehension towards Haku and unwavering resolve as a naval leader. He knew today would be an unprecedentedly tough battle, but he also believed that the honor and justice of the navy would guide them to victory.
"All troops, listen to my command!" Akainu's voice boomed through the entire Marine Headquarters through the loudspeakers. "No matter how powerful the enemy, we will hold our posts and not yield an inch! For justice and peace, we swear to defend this sea to the death!"
As Akainu gave the order, a deafening roar erupted throughout Marine Headquarters —a fearless challenge to the enemy and an unwavering belief in victory.
The sailors gripped their weapons tightly, their eyes gleaming with determination. They knew today would be a test of blood and fire, but they were prepared.
At that moment, Haku's figure slowly appeared above the New Marineford.
He arrived powered by the forces of space, his figure ethereal and unpredictable, as if he could cross the boundaries of space at any moment. His eyes were cold and profound, as if he could see into the essence of all things in the world. When he saw the navy's well-prepared formation, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"It seems you're prepared." Haku's voice echoed across the sea, carrying an undeniable authority and power. "Then let me see if your so-called justice and peace can withstand my advance!"
Boom!
Conqueror's Haki! As Haku released his Conqueror's Haki, many Marines below the Vice Admiral of Vice Admiral were knocked unconscious!
Haku's words carried a hint of mockery, yet they sent a chill down the spines of every naval officer and sailor present.
His Conqueror's Haki swept through New Marineford like a storm, instantly shattering the mental defenses of the weaker soldiers. A suffocating sense of oppression filled the air, as if even the air itself had been frozen by this power.
However, Fleet Admiral Akainu stood firm, his gaze even more resolute, his entire body seemingly radiating an indomitable light.
As the supreme leader of the navy, he was well aware of his responsibilities and mission, and he would never back down even in the face of such a powerful enemy. Even if the enemy was his former colleague, or even more powerful than him, he would not back down!
"The Navy's honor must not be tarnished!" Akainu roared, his voice filled with power and determination. "All senior officers, follow me to battle!"
Following Akainu's command, a group of elite naval personnel, clad in cloaks of justice, quickly assembled. Among them were Admiral candidate, Commodore, and even Vice Admiral with extraordinary abilities!
This is the team that Akainu has cultivated over the years! Everyone here exudes a powerful aura that cannot be ignored.
Standing behind Akainu, they were like an impregnable bulwark, vowing to defend the dignity and honor of the Navy to the death.
"Yes, Fleet Admiral!" the naval officers responded in unison, their voices resounding through the sky and echoing throughout New Marineford.
