Bullet's Thoughts on the Future!
That's strange.
The sky was clear and sunny just now, and the warm sunshine made it feel hot after walking for a while. But the azure sky with a few Baymax was a beautiful sight.
This is quite a rare treat for London, which is usually very rainy.
But now, in the blink of an eye, it suddenly became covered with dark clouds, gloomy and oppressive. The huge black mass seemed to cover the entire sky, making it hard to breathe.
This is the sentiment of a middle-aged gentleman in a sharp suit standing by the Thames River.
He was with the men and women nearby, looking up at the thick, dark clouds overhead with expressions of astonishment.
Not just here.
Professors and students from Oxford University, people riding in carriages on Tower Bridge, and worshippers walking together out of St. Paul's Cathedral.
Even the guards on duty and training Hampton Court Palace noticed the strange change in the sky.
It's not that there's anything wrong with the dark clouds, but rather that they appeared so suddenly that it felt like there was no process whatsoever.
"Look!"
"What is that?!"
In central London, at Trafalgar Square.
A blonde girl, nestled in her boyfriend's arms with her back to the fountain lake and the Nelson's Column, suddenly raised her finger and screamed.
Her tall, handsome, curly-haired boyfriend, along with everyone around him, looked in the direction she was pointing, but saw nothing but dark clouds.
But just as discontent arose in people's hearts, and they were about to look at the girl with accusatory eyes...
Suddenly, a flash of blue appeared in my field of vision, like a small, azure fish that leaped once in the ocean of dark clouds before disappearing again.
But this time, a lot of people saw it.
Is it a bird?
"Aaaaaaah!!"
Suddenly, screams began to erupt, as the blue light magnified, or rather, emerged from the dark clouds—it was a claw with five fingers!
"My God!"
"How is this possible?"
Exclamations rose and fell, and the atmosphere in London became restless. People outside the building stopped moving and stared in disbelief at the sharp claws and long tail covered in blue scales that appeared and disappeared in the dark clouds.
"Snake?"
"It looks like a large blue Orochi!"
"My God, is such a big snake able to fly?"
The gentlemen, ladies, and children of the entire city were completely at a loss for what to do. And if you suggested calling the police, couldn't you see they were just as dumbfounded?
Just then, four biplanes flew in from the direction of Port of London, their target being the 'Great Blue Serpent' in the dark clouds.
Certainly.
They just wanted to take a few close-up photos before returning to base to hand them over to higher-ups.
As for attacks, forget about it. These planes are not equipped with any weapons except for the pistols carried by the pilots, and the ground troops are even less capable of doing so.
Great John Bull Country does not yet possess weapons capable of striking at high altitudes.
However, the Hans Tiger Empire across the strait does have one; seven years ago, they manufactured cannons specifically designed to shoot down airplanes and airships, with a reported maximum range of four kilometers.
Then, five years ago, further improvements were made, resulting in the manufacture of a 65mm caliber anti-aircraft gun with a wider firing arc and a maximum range exceeding five kilometers!
[Waaaaah.]
High in the sky, beneath the dark clouds, the four biplanes, propelled by their lead propellers, slowly approached.
At this moment, which is the focus of all of London's attention.
A blue-scaled 'snake' head, with a pair of buffalo horns on its forehead and a pair of goat horns on its head, emerged from the clouds, its terrifying gaze fixed on the four airplanes.
"Is this an airplane? It looks no different from a small flying insect."
Kaido's words were like a Formless mental shock, further shocking the men, women, and children of the entire city below, shattering their already severely damaged worldviews.
"It... it seems to be talking!"
"Ah, what language is this? It looks familiar."
"Is it Nippon language? I'm not entirely sure."
Just as everyone began to discuss the matter, Kaido opened his gaping maw, from which a dazzling Huoguang began to ignite.
He planned to give the capital of what was supposedly the World's Strongest nation a truly lavish welcome.
This gift is Bolo Breath!
[Boom----]
A massive pillar of fire, both intensely hot and incredibly bright, seemed to cascade down from a waterfall in the heavens. The crimson Huoguang on the faces of the people below, and they immediately felt a wave of heat wash over them.
In the blink of an eye, the four biplanes attempting to escape were engulfed in flames. Then, towering pillars of fire, like the blade of God, carved a burning diagonal line across London, reducing all buildings and living things along their path to ashes in the tsunami-like inferno.
"My God!"
Inside the upper levels of the Hampton Court Palace, the current John Bull Country, clutching the Empress's hand, watched this scene in horror.
"Is this divine punishment you have brought down? But what crime have we committed?"
At the same time.
The Great Hans Tiger Great John Bull Empire only by the English Channel, was located in a place Saxony within its territory.
Hundreds of thousands of the Army troops and a large number of artillery positions are launching a fierce attack on a behemoth covered with cannon barrels and gun barrels, which looks as if it were made of a large amount of earth and stone.
Because behind them was the Dublin!
In addition, more troops and more artillery are pouring in from all over the country!
It's important to know that they, who claim to have the world's number one Army, have over 800,000 well-equipped Army!
"Hahaha, good! Let more of them come!"
Douglas Bullet was completely having a blast, controlling the cannons and gun barrels on his 'body' to keep firing at the enemy. Every time the enemy's artillery fire exploded on his body, the impact made him even more excited.
The key point is that these Hans Tiger soldiers are of very high quality.
Even when facing a monster like themselves, even after tens of thousands had died or been wounded, they still gritted their teeth and held their ground, suppressing their fear.
Bullet greatly admires them for this alone.
"This is an excellent source of recruits!"
He has abandoned the idea of completely crippling the Hans Tiger Country.
Bullet no longer views things from the perspective of One Piece, but rather from the perspective of Army Lieutenant General, or even a future Army General.
Or, to put it simply, from the perspective of a 'general'.
The World Government's goal has never been to annihilate this world, but to conquer it. In the future, this populous world will inevitably supply them with the military forces they need.
Although these Otherworld beings are physically weak, if they are simply soldiers, they can still play a role in world wars if equipped with appropriate weapons or operate armored vehicles.
In other words, cannon fodder
However, there are differences between cannon fodder and cannon fodder. The fighting spirit of the Hans Tiger people definitely belongs to the top-grade cannon fodder!
Bullet envisions that once there are enough cannon fodder troops, the native Sea Star soldiers should abandon firearms and instead focus their energy on cultivating superhuman strength to become mid-to-high-end combatants.
For example, Physical Arts, Swordsmanship, Devil Fruit abilities, etc.
