New World Marines to Wipe Out the Whitebeard Pirates!?

On the distant warship, Strawberry observed the situation and smiled, saying, "Operation successful."

It is clear that Lucci's appearance was not an accident; the Marines had already formulated an operation plan from the beginning.

After all, according to Ortolan's intentions, that brat named Momokosuke is the most important mission target, and he must be alive!

Therefore, from the very beginning, the purpose of each vice Vice Admiral taking the stage was to disperse the protective forces around Momosuke, creating an opportunity for Lucci to capture Momosuke alive.

It now appears that the Marines operation plan has been successfully completed.

With their young master subdued, Kin'emon and the others, however unwilling, dared not make any move. One by one, they put down their weapons and gave up resisting.

Soon, the Marines officers apprehended them all.

With a Hoshigaki in his mouth, Kanjuro captured Kanjuro and brought him back. Kaisa also put the Seastone shackles on Kin'emon's hands, and Stainless captured Raizo and O-Nami as well.

On the Momonga's side, Inuarashi was dealt with very easily and was also captured.

On the distant sea, San Juan Wolf, who thought he was well hidden, was observing the situation of the Marines.

Then, he saw a tall figure emerge from the cabin of the warship where the Momonga was; that person was Katakuri.

Immediately afterward, having dealt with Momokosuke and his group of Marines commanders, all eyes turned to him.

San Juan Wolf???

Did they find me?

The next second, Strawberry, holding the internal Den Den Mushi, said, "Full fleet, full firepower, bombard San Juan Wolf!"

After the order was given, about thirty warships simultaneously turned their cannons around, and in an instant, the entire sea was filled with the roar of cannons. San Juan Wolf, his face covered in cannonballs, stood up from the sea, yelling and waving his huge arms, trying to capsize the Marines warships and break the encirclement.

But at this moment, Katakuri, Momonga, Lucci, Hoshigaki, Kaisa, Stainless, and others had all charged towards him.

New World, a gateway to the sea.

A warship was sailing here, and on the deck, Ortolan was lying in a sun chair, sunbathing.

The weather in the sea area today is very stable, with no strong winds or heavy rain, and the sea seems very calm.

Beside Ortolan, Hina held a Den Den Mushi in her hand, through which came the voice of Momonga, reporting the situation.

"You instructed that Kozuki Momosuke and his group, and they've all been captured. San Juan Wolf has also been dealt with. However, Katakuri was a bit too ruthless first, killing that guy outright. We didn't manage to capture him alive..." Momonga reported over the Den Den Mushi.

"It's better that he's dead. There's no point in keeping that kind of monster; it's just a waste of food. As a laborer, he's no longer qualified," Ortolan said indifferently.

He knew very well that his older brother Katakuri was a man who valued his brothers and sisters very much. San Juan Wolf had seriously injured Daifuku and almost didn't make it back to life, so Katakuri hated him to the core.

You should know that Daifuku is Katakuri's twin brother!

Therefore, it's not surprising at all that Katakuri would retaliate by killing San Juan Wolf directly; Ortolan's quite reasonable.

After a slight pause, Ortolan asked, "Has the news been blocked?"

"We blocked all signals before we took action, so there shouldn't be any surprises. However, we have blocked the gateway to the New World for so long. If the Whitebeard Pirates really want to investigate..." Momonga replied softly.

"Announce to the public that the blockade of the New World Gateway is in response to San Juan Wolf. Say that our Marines has discovered that San Juan Wolf went to this area with the intention of attacking the royal families of various New World countries and disrupting the World Conference. To avoid this, we had no choice but to blockade the New World Gateway and surround and capture San Juan Wolf. In the end, he resisted too fiercely, and we had no choice but to kill him there. This will serve as an excuse. I don't intend to keep it a secret from the Whitebeard Pirates forever; buying some time is enough..." Ortolan immediately gave the instructions.

Ortolan intended to use Momosuke against the Whitebeard Pirates.

But this time it was indeed outside of Ortolan's plans; it was an unexpected situation.

Many preparations have not yet been made, and Ortolan also needs some time to plan this operation against the Whitebeard Pirates.

Therefore, he did not expect to keep it from Whitebeard forever; he just wanted to buy him some time.

"I understand. So what's next? What should we do?" The Momonga first agreed to Ortolan's arrangements, and then asked.

"Which Marine Base are you closest to?" Ortolan asked.

Without a second thought, the Momonga replied, "Closest to Stainless' G-3."

"Then everyone gather at G-3. I'll be there soon. We'll talk about the rest when we meet," Ortolan instructed.

"Understood," the Momonga replied immediately.

The two didn't say much after that, and soon hung up on each other with their Den Den Mushi.

"Hina, adjust the flight path. We'll head straight to G-3 now," Ortolan said to Hina beside him.

Hina put away the Den Den Den Mushi and said, "Understood, Admiral."

"Also, inform Gion, Issho, and Tokikake to prepare for the video conference. When I arrive at G-3, all Vice Admiral in the New World Marines will participate in this meeting I'm convening," Ortolan instructed.

"The Admiral of the Mongols," Hina replied immediately.

"Don't take the Den Den Mushi, give it to me, I need to contact the Fleet Admiral..." Ortolan said, extending his hand.

Hina hesitated for a moment, but still handed the Den Den Mushi to Ortolan. Without further delay, she quickly left Ortolan's side to deliver the orders from the Admiral.

Ortolan toyed with Den Den Mushi in his hand, lay on the sun lounger with his eyes closed, and pondered the current situation.

The strength comparison between the Whitebeard Pirates and Ortolan.

The Whitebeard Pirates are very strong, mainly because of Whitebeard himself. Among his subordinates, Kozuki Oden should have already crossed that threshold and reached the true top level, while Marco, Jozu and other captains should not have reached that level.

Based on my estimation, Marco and the others can be dealt with by Vice Admiral like Momonga, and even those so-called captains ranked lower can be handled by Smoker and Lucci.

Meanwhile, the New World Marines under Ortolan's command also have a considerable number of elite Rear Admiral. In addition, Ortolan can recruit the Shichibukai to fight, so the Whitebeard Pirates do not have any advantage in terms of mid-level combat power.

As for top-tier combatants, the Whitebeard Pirates have two.

Newgate himself and Kozuki Oden.

On the other hand, Ortolan is very powerful. He himself is a top expert who can fight against Whitebeard head-on. In addition, he has three great experts under his command: Gion, Tokikake, and Issho.

It could even be said that the Momonga, who was just demoted to the rank of lieutenant Vice Admiral by Ortolan, should now be able to compete in the peak tournament.

Beyond the purely Marines forces, the New World of Ortolan also has the Big Mom Pirates as an ally.

Playing with the Den Den Mushi in his hand, Ortolan closed his eyes and thought for a moment before opening them and saying, "No matter how you look at it, it's 800,000 to 100,000, giving me the advantage... However, wiping out the Whitebeard Pirates in this battle shouldn't be a problem, and we don't need any support from headquarters."

That's right, Ortolan had no intention of using the Marine Headquarters' resources.

He plans to use the power of their New World Marines to wipe out the Whitebeard Pirates!

This would truly prove that even without headquarters, the New World Marines still possesses top-tier combat power and scale!

This can also be seen as a test for the New World Marines by Ortolan. Whether they are mules or horses, they still need to be put to the test. If they can defeat the Whitebeard Pirates, then the New World Marines will have a true nameless battle and a solid foundation of power!

However, even so, for a battle of this magnitude, it is still necessary to communicate with the Fleet Admiral of the Sengoku.

After all, the Marines's previous strategy was to leave the Whitebeard alone as long as he didn't cause trouble. Now that Ortolan suddenly said he wanted to take action against the Whitebeard, he had to inform Headquarters first.

Thinking of this, Ortolan rubbed his hands together a few times and sent the Den Den Mushi signal to Fleet Admiral Sengoku.
