The Incident of Slaughtering Six Kingdoms!
Boom!
Amidst the deafening roar, the earth trembled simply from the crunch of the five enormous snails.
Large numbers of soldiers began to rush down from the structures on the snails' backs. They all looked exactly alike, carrying rifles and cannons, and quickly formed ranks around several giant snails.
Meanwhile, the structures on the backs of the snails began to change shape, with huge cannons already in place, and of course, heavy machine guns were also indispensable.
The five Giant Snail are actually five giant, mobile fortresses.
Together with the soldiers who had already formed ranks, the infantry and tanks formed a coordinated force.
Standing atop the snail's head, Doflamingo paid little attention to the imposing array of troops; he simply smiled and gazed at what should have been the port in the distance.
"Fufufufu! Look! Bege, this is our power!"
Bege, who was encased in the Poneglyph by Doflamingo's powers, was also somewhat surprised.
The port has vanished, leaving only a bottomless, enormous crater.
At the edge of the crater, jagged impact patterns radiated outwards like ripples, etching themselves onto the earth.
The bomb that Judge designed specifically for them, combined with Bondi World's Hundred-Fold, resulted in a truly terrifying power!
Even those two monsters, Bullet and Abel, would find it difficult to cause such destruction.
"The boss told us to do whatever we wanted."
Bege spoke, her tone laced with a chilling cruelty, "So, you're saying we don't care what we do as long as we can show you our weapons, right?"
"Fufufufu!"
Doflamingo grinned, "Here we go! Let's have some fun this time!"
Ahead, a cavalry force is rapidly approaching.
The massive explosion at the port immediately attracted the attention of the nearby garrison.
"Cough cough!"
Doflamingo coughed twice, clearing his throat. "Pfft, giving orders... this is the first time! It's a bit strange!"
"Should I do it?"
Bege rolled her eyes.
What's inside?
"I am the highest-ranking officer, Bege!"
Doflamingo immediately rebuked him.
The boss will regret this decision sooner or later.
Bege didn't dare argue with Doflamingo; that bastard really didn't hold back when he beat people up. She only dared to mutter a few curses in her mind.
Doflamingo looked up at the cavalry charging towards him.
"It looks really good!"
The boy grinned.
The combination of ferocious beasts and strong warriors was enough to rout most armies with just their charge.
But.
"Attack!"
Doflamingo, brimming with confidence, ordered, "Show off our weapons!"
The identical Clone soldiers quickly changed formation.
Among them are elite clones who serve as officers, so even a novice like Doflamingo can easily command them in battle.
Faced with this combination of wolves and tigers, the soldiers immediately formed a horizontal line, ready to be shot in formation.
Then.
"Clap clap clap clap clap!"
Gunshots suddenly rang out, instantly coalescing into a metal storm that devoured everything!
Bullets rained down like a torrent of steel, sweeping wildly across the battlefield.
The rain of destruction was too fierce. In just an instant, the charging cavalry was as if they had been slashed by an invisible giant scythe, with men and horses falling and blood and flesh flying everywhere!
Severed limbs and blood splattered everywhere, and the piercing screams were drowned out by the roar of bullets.
In a single encounter, the entire cavalry was plunged into a hell of collapse.
"Counterattack! Counterattack now!"
There were screams of terror from the cavalry.
"No! The distance is too far! Our firearms don't have enough range!"
"So, does that mean we can only --"
The battle was over in just two minutes.
The cavalrymen couldn't even get close, let alone escape; they were quickly slaughtered by overwhelming firepower.
"Fufufufu! Idiot!"
Doflamingo burst into laughter, "Ants should just obediently get crushed!"
"Forward! Our destination is the capital of this country!"
Although it's called the capital, it's not actually that far away.
This country is not very large. There is only one city on the island: the capital. The capital is surrounded by flat and open grasslands, with many villages and towns scattered on the grasslands.
The straight-line distance from the port to the capital is only twenty kilometers, which, at the speed of the Giant Snail and the soldiers, would only take a few tens of minutes.
Shortly afterward, a large number of soldiers gathered outside the gates of the capital.
Tens of thousands of ferocious beasts of all kinds, along with the fully armed knights on their backs, stretched as far as the eye could see, an imposing sight.
Meanwhile, on the city walls behind the army,
The king of this country, a burly man who had been ambitious just an hour ago, was now covered in cold sweat. He almost knelt before the young man in military uniform who stood ramrod straight against the battlements.
"I already know I was wrong, Lord Bullet!"
He repeatedly said, "Let's end this! Our Rikoum Kingdom surrenders unconditionally to Lord Roa! There's no need for further war!"
Bullet forced him to gather all the country's military forces.
The king tried, but could not resist.
The boy before him, who was not even half his age, possessed a power that he could not resist no matter what.
With just a glance, he and all his guards collapsed to the ground.
To intimidate him, he transformed into Mercury Giant hundreds of meters tall, possessing the power to destroy an entire city with every move.
How can one possibly fight back against such a monster?
We have no choice but to comply; otherwise, the entire country might be destroyed.
"The boss said he wants to demonstrate our weapons, so we must demonstrate them well."
Bullet slowly turned around, looking at the king whose eyes were filled with despair, "Do you intend to disobey the Boss's orders?"
The king trembled, and his broad shoulders, which had seemed capable of supporting a mountain, slumped.
Now, how else can we demonstrate this?
The king suddenly gritted his teeth, "Lord Bullet, can I fight alongside the warriors?"
The country is now in a huge crisis; how can he, as king, stand idly by?
Bullet replied nonchalantly, "Suit yourself."
Soon, at the very front of the army below, the king, riding his white tiger, stood at the very forefront. He raised his spear high and roared hoarsely, "Warriors, follow me to victory!"
Victory is certain!
Victory is certain!
Victory is certain!
It should be said that his prestige in the country's army was terrifyingly high; just one sentence was enough to completely excite the soldiers.
Everyone was roaring at the top of their lungs, and their faces were filled with fanaticism and excitement.
Everyone was anticipating another victory led by His Majesty the King!
But no one saw the despair on the face of the towering king.
Behind them, on the city wall, the kings who had been invited also looked pale.
They shouldn't have come!
That damned King Recoome! He's screwed them all over!
As everyone was lost in thought, a slow, rumbling sound began to rise.
The enormous snails slowly emerged from the horizon and then rapidly approached this side.
It's here!
The kings' expressions changed slightly.
So, will they also be part of the Calamity Company's weapons showcase?
At that moment, King Likum, who was riding on the tiger's back, took a deep breath.
Since it's unavoidable anyway, let's just have a big battle!
The Lykom are called barbarians because their warlike nature is ingrained in their very being!
"The enemy is here! Warriors, follow me and crush them!"
As he roared, he slapped the tiger's rump with his right hand, and the tiger roared and charged forward.
"Follow His Majesty to fight the enemy!"
Officers of all ranks followed closely behind, and all the soldiers were spurred on, also urging their mounts to charge.
In an instant, all kinds of beasts galloped about, and roars and howls shook the heavens!
The kings watching from the city walls were so shocked they were speechless.
Is this the military strength possessed by the Rikoum Kingdom?
No wonder this country is the most powerful in this sea area; who could withstand such a massive army of beasts?
Perhaps, they really can win!
Although it's impossible to defeat the Calamity Company led by Roa, winning this war alone is enough to make him famous throughout the world!
In the end, the enemy is nothing more than a few Giant Snail and a bunch of soldiers!
On this side, above the snail's head.
"Oh?"
Bege observed the situation outside through the peephole, and when she saw the horde of ferocious beasts charging towards her, she couldn't help but be somewhat astonished, "Wow, this is huge!"
An army like the one in the West Blue is enough to sweep across a vast number of countries. Not to mention non- Affiliated Nation, even among the government Affiliated Nation, there are probably very few armies that can rival it.
"What does it matter anyway!"
Doflamingo chuckled maniacally, "From the moment the Boss gave the order, the fate of this nation was sealed!"
He raised his right hand high. "Weapon demonstration, let's begin!"
Call--
Call--
Call--
The king of the Rikoum Kingdom was breathing heavily.
Nervous.
Fear.
Excitement.
A variety of emotions were surging within him at that moment.
In the end, they all turned into one sound.
Fight on!
The only option left is to fight!
Regardless of the outcome, there is only one battle!
"Kill!!"
He roared.
King Recoome, today you will fight your final battle!
Hopefully, Bullet will treat this country well, considering his full cooperation.
"Kill them!!"
The knights followed closely behind him, roaring as they charged forward.
"Idiot! What era are we living in that we're still using cavalry charges like that!"
Doflamingo grinned, finally raising his right hand. "Fire!"
Boom boom boom boom!
The heavy cannons mounted on the backs of the five Giant Snail finally opened fire.
Each gun's caliber is in no way inferior to the naval guns of the highest-ranking warships in the Marine Headquarters.
The shells loaded in these heavy cannons were meticulously designed by Judge himself, and their power far surpassed that of the navy's shells.
Whoosh whoosh!
A series of whooshing sounds rang out.
The next moment.
Boom!!
The king of the Rikoum Kingdom felt a gust of wind come from behind him, almost instantly throwing him off the tiger's back.
He rolled on the ground, feeling as if his whole body was about to be shattered.
My head was spinning, and it felt like blood was flowing from my eyes and ears.
As he awkwardly raised his head, a huge mushroom cloud was rising, and sand and gravel blown up by the storm swept across his face, almost tearing his skin.
His beloved mount lay not far from him, blood seeping from its belly, panting weakly.
This is--
Boom boom boom boom!
Explosions continued one after another, with huge bursts of flames bursting forth and plumes of smoke shooting into the sky.
The king roared desperately, but he couldn't even hear his own voice. All he could see were terrified and desperate faces that were swallowed up by the explosion in the next instant.
"This--"
On the city walls behind them, the kings stood frozen in disbelief.
Such firepower!
In the blink of an eye, were the Rikoum Kingdom's most prized beast cavalry about to be completely wiped out?
The heavy artillery bombardment continued for several minutes until the area was blasted into a small basin, at which point the shelling gradually ceased.
After the saturation fire coverage ended, the infantry moved in to begin the final cleanup work.
Although the clone soldiers possess human emotions, for some unspeakable reason, they are actually filled with resentment.
Murder is a good way to vent anger.
Whether it's a person or an animal, anything that's still moving will be shot at without hesitation.
The sound of gunfire rang out incessantly.
A colossal stone giant strode into the battlefield.
"Fufufufu,"
Doflamingo surveyed the chaotic battlefield, "What a bunch of trash! It's over so quickly, wasn't there a single strong guy? I didn't even get to enjoy myself!"
I told you we were going to have a good time!
"Go to hell!!"
Suddenly, a figure sprang up, thrusting a broken spear directly at the stone giant's belly.
Bite.
The spear broke.
"I'm talking about someone stronger!"
Doflamingo angrily opened his right hand, pointing it at the man; his palm held the muzzle of a cannon.
Boom!!
Amidst a deafening roar, the explosion's flames completely engulfed the man.
Finally, it's quiet.
From atop the city walls, all that could be seen was a devastated battlefield, and the kings remained silent.
Cold sweat beaded on their foreheads, and their bodies trembled.
Are these the weapons that Roa sells?
"The boss said that after witnessing the power of the weapons we sell, no country in the world can refuse them,"
Bullet's calm voice rang out, "If they still refuse, it means they haven't truly grasped the power of these weapons."
"Have you realized that?"
"Of course! We certainly already know that, Lord Bullet!"
The kings, terrified, hurriedly bowed and scraped, saying, "We will never again prevent your goods from being sold in our country, and we will no longer collect taxes!"
This country, the Rikoum Kingdom, is finished. The shrewd and capable king has been killed, and almost all of its military force has been wiped out. Vultures will come running at the first sign of trouble.
They mustn't repeat the same mistake!
However, judging from Bullet's words, it seems he doesn't intend to do anything to them?
That's right. If Roa wants to sell weapons, he definitely needs the help of kings like them!
"Very good,"
Bullet nodded in satisfaction. "Then, your next task is to help us make sure the rest of the world knows about this."
The kings nodded instinctively, "Of course, of course!"
How could they possibly dare to go against the Calamity Company?
Then they heard Bullet say,
"The understanding gained from one king might not be profound enough, but adding the five of you should be sufficient."
Huh?
The very next day, photographs of the bodies of the five non- Affiliated Nation kings of the New World hanging on the walls of the Rikoum Kingdom were already circulating throughout the world via newspapers.
The World Economic News Paper referred to this incident as the "massacre of six countries."
