Soon, Saint Figarland and Saint Saturn left the camp together and headed to Panger Castle.
Meanwhile, in the port beneath the Red Line.
A huge transport ship also arrived here.
And Katakuri, it seems, is the person in charge of this transport ship, and he is currently walking down the gangway.
As soon as they disembarked, Momonga came up to them and asked Katakuri, "Was it alright?"
Katakuri nodded calmly and said, "It went fairly smoothly, but that thing is too big. To really pull it out, we'd have to completely dismantle the 'isolation wall' between Wano Country. We don't have enough time, and Ortolan is pressing us, so we only brought it with its main gun completely dismantled..."
When this matter was brought up, Katakuri, whose expression had been calm just moments before, now had a look of shock in his eyes, as if he had thought of something.
Upon hearing this, the Momonga looked at the huge transport ship, its eyes filled with an unyielding curiosity.
The topic they were discussing was, of course, the Ancient Weapon Pluton Pluto, which had been hidden in the Wano Country for hundreds of years.
When Ortolan arranged for Katakuri Wano Country Pluto dig up Pluton, Katakuri was completely bewildered.
Pluton Pluto, one of the Three Ancient Weapons said to be capable of destroying the world, is actually in conflict with the Wano Country!?
Not only was he stupid, Kaido was stupid too. Kaido had been entrenched in Wano Country for so many years, yet he had no idea that the Ancient Weapon Pluton was in his territory.
If he had discovered the Ancient Weapon on his territory earlier and been able to use them, wouldn't he have been on his way to heaven long ago?
However, by the time things had come to this, it was Kaido to regret it.
"Can the main gun still be used after we take it apart? We don't want it to sit there for hundreds of years without any problems, but then we break it when we take it apart..." As the Momonga spoke, it led Katakuri toward the center of the military camp.
Katakuri also sighed, "We have to thank Master Tom for his help. Otherwise, that thing looks like a single piece, and it's impossible and unthinkable to disassemble it. You don't know, but according to the design drawings, Pluto has a self-destruct device inside. If we accidentally touch that device during disassembly, it will detonate. At that time, not only will the people on site be wiped out, but the entire Wano Country will also be wiped out!"
This is another point that surprised Katakuri. Not only does Ortolan know where the existing Pluton is, but even his shipbuilding master craftsman, Tom who is in charge of all shipbuilding in the New World Marines, has the complete Supreme Leader for the Ancient Weapon Pluton Pluto!
When he arrived in the Wano Country and found that it would be difficult to dig Pluto out of the Wano Country in a short time, he immediately contacted Ortolan and told him about the difficulties. Without saying a word, Ortolan sent him a professional to help.
At first, Katakuri thought that Master Tom had come to try to understand the structure of Pluton and disassemble Pluton main cannons, based on his many years of shipbuilding experience.
Unexpectedly, Master Tom arrived with complete blueprints. His understanding of Pluton couldn't be more thorough. He and his apprentices worked together for four or five days, and managed to completely dismantle Pluto's main cannon along with its energy furnace.
Soon, guided by the Momonga, Katakuri entered the tent and saw Ortolan and Sakazuki sketching and writing on a drawing on a table, as if they were discussing something.
"The intelligence on the Divine Knights, after being compiled and verified by both Spandine and Stussy, has yielded some relatively accurate information. For example, the Divine Knights currently have nineteen knights, one of whom is the Chief Director, namely the current head of the Figarland family, Saint Figarland. There are also five Grand Knights who are said to be comparable to our Marine Admiral. These six are a force to be reckoned with. The remaining twelve have unknown combat strength, but since they are able to become members of the strongest armed organization of the Celestial Dragons race, they must all have some ability..." Ortolan pointed to several documents on the table.
Sakazuki said with a hint of disdain, "Does just anyone dare to claim they can rival our Marines Admiral these days?"
Putting aside someone like Ortolan who's beyond the limit, even Sakazuki himself is very confident in his own strength. There are people on this ocean who can reach his level, but there are definitely not many.
The Divine Knights, a group of noble militia holed up in Mary Geoise, claim to have the strength of five Admiral and a commander who seems to be even stronger than Admiral. Do you really think Sakazuki would believe that so easily?
Which Marine Admiral didn't fight his way up through life and death?
These noble lords are either involved in human hunting or are shut-ins who slept with Mary Geoise. Do they even have the right to challenge Marine Admiral?
"Hahahaha, it's like our Marine Admiral is being treated like a cabbage..." Ortolan laughed heartily.
Perhaps in terms of so-called 'hard power,' the five great knights of the Divine Knights have combat strength no less than that of Marine Admiral. However, when it comes to life-and-death battles, combat experience, and experience in fighting between top experts, Ortolan absolutely does not believe that they can be compared with Marine Admiral.
That's simply unrealistic, impossible!
However, after laughing for a moment, Ortolan's expression turned serious as he said, "This guy named Gringu is quite something. Before I came here, I asked my old lady about him. Back in God's Canyon, the Rocks Pirates fought against this so-called God's Knights. It was indeed a bit of a stretch. This guy named Gringu did perform quite well back then, otherwise my old lady wouldn't still have some impression of him. Now that so much time has passed, this guy might really have some talent and needs some attention."
After listening to this, Sakazuki pondered for a moment and then said, "In that case, let me, a true Marine Admiral, weigh this guy named Gringu in my hands!"
Look at this guy, how dare he think he's stronger than Admiral!
As they were talking, Katakuri and Momonga entered. Ortolan was used to it, but Sakazuki's expression stiffened slightly. After all, Katakuri was Great Pirate with a bounty of 600 million Belly, and was the number two figure that the Big Mom Pirates publicly claimed to be.
However, Sakazuki quickly recovered from his momentary emotions.
Thinking about it carefully, the New World Marines... no, it should be called the New Marines. Katakuri and the Big Mom Pirates have provided a lot of help to the development of the New World over the years.
Moreover, nowadays, they have used the name of the World Government to clean up their act and come ashore. They are no longer pirates, but a powerful and legitimate nation in the New World.
Katakuri can no longer be viewed through the lens of a pirate. His current public identity is that of Katakuri's Ortolan brother and the second prince of Totto Land Totto Land.
"Are you here? How's the situation?" Ortolan greeted him.
Sakazuki was clearly too shy to speak, so he just nodded slightly as a greeting, but that was already quite good. The others knew his personality and temperament, so they didn't mind.
"What you wanted has been successfully delivered..." Katakuri smiled and replied.
"Then let's do it! According to intelligence, the World Government is very likely to possess the Ancient Weapon Uranus. Uranus the enemy has it and we don't, that's a disadvantage. So we can do without this Ancient Weapon, but we must have it!" Ortolan said excitedly, slapping the table.
You have Uranus, I have Pluton. Although I don't plan to use it first, if you dare to use it, I'll use Pluton to bombard Mary Geoise!
Sakazuki paused for a moment after hearing the words "Ancient Weapon" and said, "Pluton? You have Pluton?"
"How rare is it? I not only have Pluton, I also have the blueprints for Pluton. If you like it, I'll build one for you after I'm done with this," Ortolan said in a very pretentious manner.
However, after combining information with the Pluton Pluto of the Wano Country, the design blueprints, and his communication with Master Tom, Ortolan finally understood some of the inside story.
If Pluton Pluto were to build it, it wouldn't be a problem; the blueprints are right there. The key issue is that the energy source cannot be provided.
The existing Pluton, which has been used to preserve the Wano Country, is estimated by Master Tom to have only enough energy left to fire three to five cannons. Without a large-scale energy replenishment, it is just a facade and not very useful.
Therefore, theoretically speaking, of the Three Ancient Weapons, only the unreasonable Poseidon can truly destroy the world.
As for the rest, whether it's Uranus or Pluto, they are only left with a deterrent force. At most, they can destroy three or five islands in an instant. They can't do anything about destroying the world for the time being.
