The 1st First-Class Division Nippon Japanese Army, also known as the Tokyo Division, is one of the most elite units in the Army, responsible for guarding the capital, Tokyo.

At the same time, all the officers and soldiers in this division were from the Tokyo area.

Therefore, its troops are of the highest quality and receive the most resources, with the best weapons being allocated to them first.

The troop strength reached 22,000, exceeding the full strength quota.

However, in order to protect the capital, it stationed the 49th Infantry Regiment and the 57th Infantry Regiment in Kofu, Yamanashi Prefecture and Sakura Chiba Prefecture, respectively.

Therefore, only the 1st Infantry Regiment and the 3rd Infantry Regiment were stationed at the division headquarters.

Nevertheless, there were 15,000 combat soldiers, and with various auxiliary troops included, the huge camp had nearly 20,000 people.

View from above.

Rows of block-shaped buildings stood side by side; these included dormitories, warehouses, armories, canteens, stables, artillery barracks, and even an internal hospital.

All of these facilities were encased in towering outer walls, and the streets were lined with patrolling soldiers carrying rifles.

Although they are not on high alert, their heavy guard is worthy of their elite status.

In the headquarters building located in the center of the camp, Lieutenant General Kiyoshi Yasutsuna, the Vice Admiral commander, looked solemnly at the map hanging on the board.

The ticking of telegrams and the cacophony of communications soldiers on the phone created an unusually tense and serious atmosphere.

"How could tens of thousands of troops be hidden in the Aokigahara Forest?"

At this moment, an aide standing behind him sighed, "Division Commander, in this way, Tokyo will be defended by us and the 12th Division for at least half a month."

"Yes, go and relay the orders. Prepare to depart immediately. We need to set up defenses outside Setagaya Ward and absolutely prevent them from entering the capital!"

Kiyoshi Yasutsuna felt that no matter who the opponent was, blocking them first was definitely the right thing to do.

"Yes!"

The chief of staff strode outside.

[Sigh------]

"Gather!"

"Gather!"

A minute later, a cacophony of whistles rang out throughout the camp, followed by loud urging from the team leaders.

A large number of Nippon soldiers hurriedly ran out of the dormitory building and gathered in the open space of the parade ground not far away, where they were to assemble and form ranks.

At the same time.

Crates of hand grenades were carried out, Maxim Heavy Machine Gun were carried out in pairs, and field guns were also pulled out of the barracks. Then horses were brought in to prepare for transport.

In the blink of an eye, the once quiet division camp was filled with shouts and the sounds of horses; everyone knew that war was about to break out!

[Call out!!]

Suddenly, just as the first batch of soldiers reached the edge of the parade ground, a very clear and sharp whooshing sound came from the bright sky.

"Artillery fire?!"

Some experienced veterans' expressions changed drastically; the sonic boom was exactly the same as the sound of artillery shells flying through the air.

"Lie down!!"

But just as they shouted, an explosion suddenly occurred in the center of the playground, sending up thick smoke and countless fragments of stone flying out like bullets, instantly knocking some unlucky guys to the ground, followed by shrill screams.

But no one at the scene could care about them; after all, if it was artillery fire, it couldn't be just one shot.

Everyone frantically searched for cover, but after a few seconds, they found nothing overhead, as if the shot had really been fired.

This left the Nippon soldiers looking at each other in bewilderment.

Amidst this comical and awkward scene, a burst of laughter that sounded both peculiar and incredibly hearty rang out.

The laughter was like Tornado wind or a rumbling thunder, its sound waves shaking the earth and hurting the eardrums, sweeping across the vast military camp.

"Gulalalala."

Edward Newgate waved his left hand lightly, instantly creating a raging gust of wind that swept away the smoke and dust enveloping him, completely exposing his body to the blue sky Bai Yun.

Instantly.

A golden-haired Titans, nearly seven meters tall (equivalent to a two-story building), stood with his back to the bright sunlight, in the horrified gaze of everyone.

"No way?"

Holding binoculars, Kiyoshi Yasutsuna trembled as he stared at the terrifying figure reflected in the lenses. Was he dreaming? Why was such an unbelievable being appearing before him?

Compared to the Vice Admiral general, the soldiers around the parade ground were truly dumbfounded, frozen in place, some even paralyzed with fear on the ground.

Silence, a deathly silence; no one knew what to do.

Should we attack?

Should I go up and greet them?

But can this Titans speak Japanese?

How about starting with "Hello, nice to meet you," and then the other person replies with "Fine, thank you, and you?"

Edward Newgate felt a little awkward seeing the group of yellow-clad dwarfs just staring at him blankly, showing no intention of attacking.

But having only recently learned Geppo and spent the entire night riding Flying Road, I couldn't just do nothing.

I thought about it.

He decided to launch the first attack to break the awkward situation, and then suddenly clenched his empty fist, his biceps and triceps swelling as if inflated.

At the same time, a dim white light appeared on the fist.

"Isn't this a bit ominous?"

When a squad leader saw the 'Whitebeard' man's movement and the white light, a chill ran down his spine, and a strong sense of crisis made his legs tremble.

"Here's a little gift for you, please accept it!"

With a low shout from Edward Newgate, his left fist, carrying compressed concussive force, slammed into the air to his left.

[Buzz----]

In Setsuna, the white light exploded wildly, turning into fine cracks that spread in all directions, as if shattering the space into a broken ice surface.

[Boom!]

Like a volcanic eruption, the Shockwave surged forth like a tidal wave, blasting away everything in its path, including land, people, and buildings.

A billowing cloud of dust rose into the sky, and countless soldiers were reduced to blood mist and shattered bones amidst their desperate screams. The once sturdy houses were shattered into pieces, turning into ruins.

I'm wearing it!

If viewed from above, one could see that 'Whitebeard's' attack had blasted through a line of military camps starting from the parade ground, even causing part of the outermost wall to collapse.

"Monster! He's a monster!"

"Shooting!"

"Bring the field guns up!"

The Nippon soldiers of the 1st Division finally realized that the Titans had come with ill intentions. Without needing any orders from their superiors to fire, they launched a frenzied attack driven by fear.

A large number of bolt-action rifles opened fire.

Furthermore, a machine gunner aimed his Maxim Heavy Machine Gun at them, Setsuna, the firepower of nearly six hundred rounds per minute was on full display.

A bright Huoguang erupted at the muzzle of the gun, and bullets rained down like a torrential downpour.

"Gurara, that's more like it! It's so boring to stay still!"

Edward Newgate was not alarmed but delighted by the fierce barrage of bullets. He did not dodge, but instead Murakumogiri's in his right hand.

This Supreme Great Grade Sword had its hilt severed by Imu. Later, after World Government agreed to disband his One Piece crew, establish the Whitebeard Kingdom, and accept the command of the High Command, it was completely restored thanks to the efforts of many swordsmiths on Wano Island.

"Airquake - Cloud Cutting!"

Amidst the maniacal laughter, a large naginata enveloped in white light swept out horizontally.
