423 Collision

"How cunning! They even resort to such petty tricks!" Vulture roared angrily. He had naturally watched the video analysis, which was precisely why he was furious. After the war had dragged on for so long, they had only just realized that some of their initial advantages had been completely eroded.

The others felt somewhat helpless. This was war, and using intrigue and trickery was normal. Who said it had to be a hard-fought battle? On the other hand, they should reflect on how they had been led by the nose for so long.

Vulture was also in a bad mood. As a first-time commander, he had not achieved a good record, which had already caused dissatisfaction among some people.

He was still very concerned about the fact that the position of commander-in-chief could be changed at any time.

"Now that their scheme has been exposed, you can make the arrangements, and I'll go to the battlefield with them to see who it is," the Vulture said, walking out and transforming into a giant Vulture. He then spread his wings and flew towards one of the main battlefields, the glacier battlefield created by Kuzan's abilities.

Kuzan is in a bad situation. Both Gari and Jhin have fire abilities, and in most cases, they are suppressed by the lovers working together.

Vulture needs to go there to provide support. We can't just leave his fighting strength idle; we need to make a breakthrough. Although only half a month has passed, the World Government is already urging us to act.

Meanwhile, a powerful figure is hidden within Gaya Island as its commander. Although their identity is unknown, they have obtained some intelligence on the battlefield.

"Have they set off yet?" Rediat chuckled on the other side, having received intelligence that the Vulture had been dispatched.

Then he took out a Den Den Mushi), "Alex, let's get started. The Vulture has left."

"Is that so? Haha, then let's make a scene!" Alex laughed loudly. He already knew about his mission beforehand and had concealed his strength for that purpose.

After Alex, Rediat issued a series of orders.

Unbeknownst to Vulture, fierce battles erupted in the smaller battlefields near the fourth battlefield. Most of these battles ended in victory due to overwhelming strength, and all the pirates gathered in the direction of Alex.

Rediat also sprang into action; such an Admiral- level combatant needed to be targeted, otherwise it would cause them enormous damage.

Rediat's main mission upon arrival was to target this fourth Admiral.

On the glacier, the battle continued, a faint chill permeating the air, but to those engaged in combat, this chill was negligible.

"Ten Finger Bullet!" Sharp bone spikes shot out like bullets, easily piercing the bodies of many allied soldiers.

Wielding a bone sword, Kaguya traversed the battlefield, seemingly performing a magnificent dance.

Despite being attacked by multiple powerful allied warriors, Kaguya remained calm. Her bone armor and formidable physical skills, instead of being able to defeat Kaguya quickly, served as a whetstone for Kaguya.

Even though the allied forces sent many powerful warriors to deal with Kaguya, they were all defeated by Kaguya, either killed or forced to flee.

As for the stronger ones, they were all dealing with other pirates and couldn't spare any manpower to deal with Kaguya.

On this battlefield, the pirates have a slight advantage, while Kuzan is being somewhat suppressed and unable to make any moves.

The World Government coalition forces also found themselves at a disadvantage in battles against the strong, suffering injuries and even deaths. This wasn't immediately apparent, but as time went on, Gaya Island's advantage would only grow.

The various large pirate crews, the powerful figures who rose to prominence through battles in the New World, gathered together, making it a veritable gathering of strong individuals. Even with the World Government's reinforcements, it still fell behind in terms of high-end combat power.

The World Government Alliance's advantage lies mainly in its larger number of mid-range combat forces.

After Vice Admiral Juan, who possesses Admiral Candidate combat power, was tied down by Shiryu.

Alex, the first fleet captain of the Flying Pirates, was even more difficult to control. Several Vice Admiral joined forces to resist him, but even so, one of them still died at Alex's hands, torn apart by his own flesh.

Alex is a master of physical combat. Relying solely on his physical skills, Alex has become a powerful figure in the ocean, with a bounty exceeding one billion.

Now, Alex has gained a new ability: Ancient Species Centipede Form.

During the chaotic battle of the kendo tournament, Alex set his sights on this Devil Fruit, but unfortunately, it was eventually taken by the Beasts Pirates.

Golden Lion Shiki would naturally not refuse to help Alex improve his strength, especially since he also had the idea of helping Alex find Devil Fruit, but he hadn't found a suitable one yet.

Alex's increased strength will undoubtedly enhance the Flying Pirates' dominance.

Alex then used the Ancient Species Crocodile Form he obtained from Golden Lion Shiki, along with three ordinary Zoan Devil Fruit, to successfully exchange for this Devil Fruit from Kaido.

It's hard to say which is stronger, an ancient insect or an ancient carnivorous animal. Kaido also got three Zoan Devil Fruits. He undoubtedly made a profit, and he can also give Shiki this face.

Their territories are also bordered by the Whitebeard Pirates and the Chaos Sea, so there are currently no conflicts of interest between them.

Alex was not on one of the three main battlefields, but on an island known as the fourth battlefield, which held the Allied Forces by the throat like fangs. Beyond that lay the rear of the World Government's Allied Forces.

Alex alone tied down a significant portion of the Allied forces. Although only one Vice Admiral -level officer died, he left many others crippled, and Alex severely injured several others.

Even so, Vulture did not dare to attack Alex easily, and tried his best to send people to wear Alex down here. Although Alex was strong, his physical strength was ultimately limited.

The Vulture's only request to the others was to keep Alex occupied.

"Fire Dragon Flame Emperor!" Jin unleashed a full-force strike, flames enveloping his katana as a dragon-shaped fiery slash erupted instantly, the scorching flames as intense as magma.

On the other side, Gari transformed into a bolt of lightning, flashing past at incredible speed, his double-edged Hunting Knife, crackling with static electricity and flames, slashing fiercely at Kuzan.

As the battle dragged on, Gari and Jhin's teamwork became increasingly seamless, putting more pressure on Kuzan.

"Ice Wall!" In an instant, a huge ice wall condensed in front of Kuzan, exuding extreme cold and possessing an unimaginable hardness.

Even so, the ice wall was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This amount of time was more than enough for Kuzan, and he had gradually gotten used to Jhin and Gari's fighting style.

"Frozen Moment!"

Extreme cold air was released rapidly, and Gari's body was frozen instantly when he got close, his whole body encased in ice and suspended in mid-air.

The next moment, cracks appeared on the ice sculpture, Gari, engulfed in flames and radiating heat, broke free from his frozen state.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kuzan has already begun fighting Jhin.

The powerful cold air can easily freeze magma and volcanic eruptions, so even if they could use the power of fire, Jhin and Gari would still be frozen solid.

However, it cannot completely freeze the surface; at most, it can only freeze the surface.

Kuzan's ability is very troublesome. In terms of control and defense, even if you fall into a disadvantageous position, that's all you can do; you can't expand your advantage any further.

Being repeatedly frozen, while having no real impact, is still quite frustrating.

Conversely, Kuzan also found Gari and Jhin's offensive very troublesome. His freezing ability was weakened, and he was also countered by fire. He was unable to defend himself when hit by heated objects or flames, which was his weakness.

In other words, his elementalization was completely ineffective against Jhin and Gari.

Just like the Sand-Sand Fruit is afraid of water, once it comes into contact with water elementalization, it loses its effect and will take on a physical form.

The inability to transform into an elemental form greatly impacts Kuzan's combat power. Attacks that he could easily avoid with his elemental form are now impossible to dodge, requiring him to use Haki to defend against them.

This also necessitates a change in Kuzan's fighting style, requiring him to adapt in the short term.

The battle continued when suddenly, a powerful aura appeared, which could be sensed from afar. Looking up at the sky, a giant Vulture with wingspans of tens of meters appeared, seemingly obscuring the sky and casting a shadow.

The morale of the World Government coalition forces soared upon seeing the newcomer. They knew who he was: Army Admiral Vulture, the commander of the coalition forces. With the support of such a top-tier fighter, they seemed to see the dawn of victory.

Kuzan a sigh of relief. The continuous battles had left him exhausted, not physically, but mentally. It would be great if someone could share the burden.

Meanwhile, the pirates looked grave. Several powerful figures were prepared to join forces to restrain the Army Admiral, Vulture. If they were not restrained, their favorable situation could very well be reversed.

Seemingly wanting to intimidate, the Vulture swooped down with unstoppable momentum, like a falling meteor. Its terrifying aura seemed to make the sky tremble. Its flowing Armament Haki enveloped its entire body, and no one wanted to withstand this terrifying attack.

Jin was already planning to make his move. Only he had the ability to block this attack, and even if he did, he would be severely injured. The better way would naturally be to avoid it, but the landing position could be adjusted, and Jin, being a fellow Ancient Species ability user, naturally knew this.

At that moment, a shadow flashed, and a calm voice echoed across the entire battlefield, "Dragon Breath!"

Rediat appeared in the center of the battlefield without making a sound, but those with greater strength noticed him immediately.

In contrast, the reactions of the two sides were completely different from before: the allied forces were astonished and couldn't believe it, while the Gaya Island side was overjoyed.

An eerie shadow spread, and a black beam of light shot upwards towards the Vulture descending from the sky.

The earth trembled, and a terrifying Dragon Breath, carrying with it a powerful impact and the corrosive force of shadows, emanated from the earth.

The two impacts collided directly in mid-air with a loud bang. The Vulture continued its downward descent, but its descent speed noticeably slowed down, and it was restricted.

The impact of the collision spread outwards like overlapping waves, and many people were affected by the shockwaves from the mid-air collision.

It is visible to the naked eye that the power of the Vulture's swooping attack is being eroded and weakened.

This impact was thus blocked by Rediat.

The Vulture transformed into human form, standing upright in mid-air, with a pair of wings constantly flapping on its back.

His face was somewhat grim. His whereabouts had been discovered. He was certain that Rediat's sniping was no accident, indicating that there was a problem within the Allied forces.

Rediat was not unexpected, after all, among the powerful members of the top pirate crews in the New World, there were only a few who had not yet appeared.

Rediat arrived too early; the leak of intelligence within the coalition forces was what he was most concerned about.

They stared at each other; the war continued.

At this point, there's no other option but to fight; there's nothing more to say.

Rediat sprouted two wings on his back; with a flap of his black dragon wings, his figure shot directly into the sky.

He casually drew his long sword from his waist and swung it swiftly, flashes of black light streaking across the air as his slashes blocked all of the Vulture's escape routes.

Despite these fierce slashes, the Vulture remained unfazed and charged towards Rediat as well. Its figure spun and dodged in the sky, avoiding most of the slashes. Its claws, wreathed in Armament Haki, slammed directly into a black light.

Rediat's slash was shattered, while a crack appeared on the Vulture's talons, which quickly healed thanks to the Ancient Species' powerful regenerative abilities.

The main reason the Vulture could become a commander was that he was slightly stronger than the Violent Bear.

The two fought fiercely, their figures flashing across the sky at such incredible speed that it was difficult for the eyes to keep up. Only the bursts of air proved that they had collided in that area.

Rediat quickly abandoned his longsword, transforming his arms into dragon claws, and fought in the most primal way.

Even though those on the battlefield couldn't afford to be distracted by the clash between the two aerial overlords, the immense commotion was still palpable to those below.

Rediat's appearance directly halted the rise in morale of the Allied Forces due to the arrival of the Vulture, while the pirates were even more invigorated.

Rediat displayed astonishing dominance from the outset, displaying terrifying physique and combat prowess, suppressing Vulture in aerial combat.

It possesses the abilities of Mythical Zoan, the highest level of Two types of Haki, and Conqueror's Haki infused with the Conqueror's Haki of a dragon.

An eerie shadow was constantly eroding the Vulture's body, eroding its Vulture Haki.

Although there isn't a significant difference in overall combat strength, Rediat's Observation Haki is enough to give him the upper hand and allow him to gradually expand his advantage.

The arrival of the Vulture did not change the fact that the allied forces were at a disadvantage on this battlefield; on the contrary, the trend of being at a disadvantage became even more obvious.

Vulture had never expected Rediat's strength. He was no match for Rediat. Even though Rediat possessed the power of Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, in Vulture's eyes he was still just a 23-year-old brat.

However, that was indeed the case; he was suppressed by Rediat. In full view of everyone, the commander-in-chief of the allied forces, Army Admiral, was suppressed by a young pirate.

He still had his pride. Vulture went all out, even trying to trade blows, but the battle didn't turn around. Rediat always seized the initiative, predicting his actions and preventing him from gaining an advantage.

"Is it Future Sight?" the Vulture wondered to itself.

Rediat easily overheard the Vulture's thoughts, smiled disdainfully, and unleashed a Dragon Claw Fist at the Vulture.
