The First Battle of Victory
The first major battle between the Night Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates lasted for two full days.
The Whitebeard Pirates arrived with great momentum, but the final result was unexpected and even shocking to many.
The Night Pirates occupied seven islands Whitebeard Pirates, and these seven islands were the very battlefields between the Night Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates.
Only one island was recaptured by the Whitebeard Pirates, which had two affiliated Whitebeard Pirates crews that held an overall advantage in strength.
To avoid significant losses, we had no choice but to back down.
In addition, there are four islands where the two sides are evenly matched in strength.
However, "Ice Witch" Wyper and Haruta, the Captain of the Second Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, were defeated and captured by "The Hunter" Gari and "Snake King" Mobius, respectively.
Not only did they suffer huge losses, but many of their crew members were also captured.
This victory was undoubtedly a triumph for the Night Pirates. Although Haruta was young and not fully mature, his ability to become a division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates was enough to demonstrate his strength.
The division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates were all highly skilled; each one of them could be considered a strongman in the New World.
The Ice Witch is no less powerful.
Morgans would naturally not miss such a great battle: the war between the Night Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates, a new overlord versus a veteran overlord. Teach, the captain of the Night Pirates, was once a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, and there were many interesting stories to be had about it.
The ubiquitous Reporter Bird naturally recorded this battle as well. In a short period of time, processed and edited images were transmitted through the World Economic News's central system to all Transponder Snail). As long as you spend Beli, almost everyone can see it.
The large title is very eye-catching, and anyone who pays attention will be tempted to pay to click and watch.
Soon, footage of the Night Pirates' battle spread throughout the world. Anyone with Transponder Snail) could watch it, and the news spread much faster than the newspapers delivered by the News Bird.
The clear battle footage is crucial intelligence, as it's essential information for all factions, especially regarding key members of the Night Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates.
Many members of the Whitebeard Pirates have already made a name for themselves, so the most attention is focused on the main officers of the Night Pirates. Although there are some videos of them fighting, people always get stronger, especially during this period of rapid growth.
Moreover, they clearly lacked information about the Night Pirates, and there was no footage of some of their officers taking action.
Soon, the powerful members and officers of the Night Pirates were all placed on the lists of key targets of various forces.
Needless to say, Nelson, who has made multiple moves, possesses the ability to teleport and swap spaces.
With this ability, he made Borsalino, now Kizaru Admiral, look very bad in that battle, and he was even unable to fight back.
It's worth noting that Borsalino's speed is already disgusting to many, but he still couldn't escape Nelson's grasp.
No one wanted to face an opponent like Nelson, and he was already on the other faction's list of targets.
As one of the earliest members of the Night Pirates, Gari, a Mink Tribe, defeated the "Ice Witch" in a short time, revealing his immense power.
In particular, their ability to transform at will, and the overwhelming power they exert on Wyper after transforming, makes them take them very seriously. Rain Gari, this Mink Tribe, is now a powerful figure in the New World.
Then there's Mobius, this young pirate who already has a bounty of over 300 million Beli. The reason he has such a high bounty is because he once led his Snake King Pirates to defeat several powerful pirates with bounties of hundreds of millions.
Gari's bizarre abilities and immense potential, coupled with the high bounty bestowed upon him by the Navy, signify the immense threat Mobius poses.
However, they knew very little about Mobius's abilities, and very few had ever survived Mobius attacks.
Not long after setting sail, their identities were exposed, and under Mostima's protection, it became even more difficult for them to obtain information about Mobius's abilities.
By carefully observing the images, even repeatedly, and watching Haruta's condition, there was no doubt that Haruta had fallen victim to Mobius's power.
Through psychological attacks, they could see Haruta's suffering.
But the sight of Haruta being attacked by Mobius without any resistance sent chills down their spines, and even made them tremble.
His vacant eyes seemed to have lost their soul, leaving only an empty shell.
It's not a problem if someone is powerful, but the unknown often makes people feel more fearful.
In particular, Mobius's use of his abilities is completely unpredictable and impossible to defend against.
Slada and Mog Radon are complete newcomers to the sea, but existing information indicates Radon they are executives of Slada Mog Night Pirates.
Their towering stature alone speaks volumes about their immense strength, indicating that they are no pushovers.
The battle between Slada and Diamond Jozu was extremely intense, and the clash of their powers was very exciting to watch. However, Slada's immense strength also made many people look solemn.
"Diamond" Jozu, as the top dog of the Whitebeard Pirates, is not much less capable than "Phoenix" Marco, the current Captain of the First Division of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Even so, he couldn't defeat Slada. The battle was evenly matched, but as the fight continued, Jozu gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
Despite Slada's powerful physique, monstrous strength, and formidable abilities, he couldn't match Slada in sustained combat.
Ultimately, Jozu retreated on his own initiative. By the Jozu, Jozu was somewhat exhausted, but Slada still had some strength left. In terms of overall strength, Slada was slightly superior.
Finally, Mog Radon, a nine-meter-tall Fish Giant, displayed his monstrous physique. In the end, even the Fish-Man Namur was unable to defeat Mog Radon and retreated on his own.
Especially after Radon got used to fighting him, even with his agility, he could still be injured by Mog Radon.
The appearance of the two monsters greatly increased the power and threat of the Night Pirates, demonstrating their formidable strength and especially their abilities.
Based on their performance and transformed state, some observant people deduced the abilities of Slada and Mog Radon.
Due to the influence of his bloodline, Mog Radon was not a patient person to begin with. When faced with Mog Radon's power, the Fish-Man Namur always relied on his speed to dodge in the later battles.
Finally, Mog Radon grew impatient and unleashed his power, transforming into Human-Beast Form. It was the terrifying pressure and power emanating from this transformation that forced Namur to retreat; otherwise, he would have been defeated by Mog Radon.
After transforming, Mog Radon surpassed him in both strength and speed.
Their abilities are respectively Ancient Species Crocodile-Crocodile Fruit - Emperor Crocodile Mode and Ancient Species Dragon- Dragon-Dragon Fruit - Mosasaurus Form.
The two top-tier Ancient Species Devil Fruit abilities caused a stir among many, even making Kaido of the Beasts drool with envy. He is determined to build Zoan army and has a great need for all Zoan Devil Fruit.
The best way to get the help of the Beasts Pirates and Kaido of the Beasts is to use Zoan Devil Fruit.
Currently, the Night Pirates have three Ancient Species Devil Fruit User, two of whom are top-tier carnivorous hunters.
In addition, there are many other powerful abilities found in ordinary Zoan Devil Fruit.
Rumors have circulated from within the Beasts Pirates that Kaido of the Beasts has taken a liking to several of the Night Pirates' executives, including Slada.
His intentions are obvious to everyone, but the Night Pirates will clearly not let Kaido have his way.
Although the Beasts Pirates have many strong members, including several Ancient Species Devil Fruit User, there are still a few who haven't fully matured, such as Krell, Mythical Zoan, and his daughter Yamato.
There are also two children who are Ancient Species Devil Fruit User. They are said to be the children of Kaido's former comrade and friend. After learning of his friend's death, he took them in and adopted them.
However, these two children secretly ate the Ancient Species Devil Fruit he had collected with great difficulty, which he hadn't even decided who to give it to yet.
When this matter was exposed, it inevitably became a huge laughing stock.
However, there is no doubt that these two children possess the abilities of Ancient Species Devil Fruit, and they will undoubtedly be the focus of the Beasts Pirates' training.
The Beasts Pirates have great potential, but the Night Pirates are even stronger, as they currently have three powerful Night Pirates -Admiral level fighters.
Furthermore, they are all very young and have a great deal of room for growth. Kaido has even dealt with Ares before, and if Ares wanted to leave, the Beasts Pirates couldn't stop Ares.
Even if Kaido of the Beasts were to come in person, he would still be no match for Teach and his companions, so Kaido's idea is impossible.
However, Kaido is clearly not the type to give up so easily, which means that a battle between Kaido and Teach is inevitable.
Moreover, the territory of the Beasts Pirates and the territory of the Night Pirates are not far apart. The Night Pirates will not be satisfied with their adjacent territories, so a conflict is only a matter of time.
The Night Pirates will continue to expand, and the Beasts Pirates will not be satisfied with their current territory. The Night Pirates are located in the southernmost part of the New World, while the Beasts Pirates' territory is in the south-central part of the New World.
The Beasts Pirates continue to expand, but not in the central part of the territory, where competition is too fierce and other forces would not want to see it happen.
Aside from the war with the Whitebeard Pirates, the Night Pirates' officers have shown tremendous strength in other regional conflicts, including "Iron" Wallace, "Bone Demon" Kaguya, "Demon Snake" Wos, "Death Shot" Kos, and "Shiryu of the Rain".
In addition, there are many other outstanding crew members, including those with special abilities such as "Thorn Woman" Loya, "Queen" Anne, and other crew members.
The former executives of the White Bird Pirates: Ebby Mantis, Hardner, Hadman brothers.
The younger ones, Clemons Bonnies, already possess considerable fighting power, and even Enel, who has shown promise in a short period of time.
The crew members of these Night Pirates are all highly regarded.
The pirates who came to attack were basically suppressed and repelled by the members of the Night Pirates. The Night Pirates did not need to be as merciful to them as they were to the Whitebeard Pirates.
Whether they submit or die, the Night Pirates have nothing to fear. Besides, the only person in the Whitebeard Pirates truly Teach is Whitebeard himself.
The outcome of the first battle essentially sealed the victory for the Night Pirates.
However, war is not that simple; this is only the first battle, and the lost face must be regained.
Moreover, they cannot give up after just one defeat. Giving up would be a sign of weakness, which would greatly affect their reputation and reduce the number of pirates who would follow them.
The war will continue, and after witnessing the immense power of the Night Pirates, their next offensive will undoubtedly become even stronger, with more powerful figures arriving, especially from the Whitebeard Pirates.
Many people are watching with bated breath, eager to know what the Whitebeard Pirates will do next.
"Ice Witch" Wyper and the Captain of the Second Division Haruta were defeated and captured, along with hundreds of members of affiliated pirate crews and members of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Given Whitebeard's personality, he would never abandon his beloved family. Wyper was a core member of the Whitebeard Pirates from a young age, but he left later. However, his loyalty remained, otherwise he would not have helped the Whitebeard Pirates in this battle.
However, there's no reason to return the territory taken by the Night Pirates. Even now, their territory isn't enough to satisfy their appetite. Once they truly understand the strength of the Dark Night Pirates realize the gap between them, they will naturally back down to avoid significant losses.
These past few years have been a period of rapid expansion for various forces. The territories they have acquired have not been held for long, and they lack a sense of belonging and control. These territories are the easiest for the Night Pirates to obtain.
However, war is the only option.
"Let's continue expanding and launch a direct counterattack. These islands are already the territory of the Night Pirates; the battlefield can't be on our own turf."
After news of the battle reached Saint Louis Island, the highest order was issued from the Night Palace.
Teach believed that Mostima would handle the situation well and not touch upon the core interests of the Whitebeard Pirates, thus avoiding a true war between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Night Pirates.
The current war is merely an expansion, using the Whitebeard Pirates and other pirate crews as a training ground for their members.
Furthermore, since Teach and the others wouldn't personally intervene, Whitebeard naturally wouldn't bully the weak. Besides, the war on the Sea of Chaos was already consuming their attention, and a few islands were actually not important to the Whitebeard Pirates.
Following Teach's orders, just one day after the war, the Night Pirates continued their expansion, launching a counterattack against the Whitebeard Pirates and other major powers, including their territories and other islands.
