Dark clouds are rolling in, covering the entire sea. At first glance, they seem to be directly overhead, making people feel even more depressed.
Sakazuki had just ended the call with Akira when a deafening roar of thunder suddenly sounded from the sky shrouded by billowing dark clouds.
Immediately afterwards, the dazzling Inazuma pierced the sky with thunder, tearing the sky apart like sharp swords, illuminating the sea surface and making it dim, as if the end could come at any time.
This is New World, the most dangerous sea area in the world.
After a burst of lightning and thunder, the majestic heavy rain poured down unreasonably, instantly connecting the sky and the earth to form a boundless giant rain curtain, covering everything in this sea area.
Under the shadow of the Inazuma that tore the sky, the Akainu's Fleet fleet led by Sakazuki did not stop or change course, and raced toward the sea ahead at full speed amid the surging waves.
Sakazuki came to the command module and stared straight ahead. When he first joined the navy, he thought that as long as he became Admiral, he could do what he wanted to do most, but he found that was not the case.
Because as Admiral, he not only has to be ready to protect Celestial Dragons at any time, but fighting against sea emperors like New World also requires permission from above. There are many restrictions and restraints, so he cannot let go and do what he wants to do.
But those have become a thing of the past.
Now the navy is no longer controlled by Holy Land, and the young commander of the headquarters allows him to let go.
The most important thing is that the young commander did not just let him work alone, which gave him the inexplicable illusion that he finally had a backer.
Of course, it's not all an illusion, because Akira is not only his backer, but the backer of the entire navy.
With this young commander who dared to show his sword to Holy Land sitting in the rear, he believed that not only him, but also Kuzan who went to Big Mom Pirates to control the sea area would have no worries, let alone Big Mom Pirates coming to affect his war with Beasts Pirates!
"BuluBulu~"
Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi placed next to it rang, "Report Sakazuki Admiral, we have lost traces of the Beasts Pirates fleet. The rain is too heavy, and the distance we can observe is very limited!"
"Don't worry!"
Sakazuki recovered his mind and said in a deep voice, "Our observation is limited, and so are they. Keep the previous route unchanged and continue moving forward!"
At the same time.
The mighty Beasts Pirates fleet was also engulfed by the heavy rain, rising and falling on the turbulent sea.
On the deck of the first huge warship, there were hundreds of Beasts Pirates, True Imposter, Numbers, Gifters and laughers standing neatly. The team of more than 300 people looked at the two huge figures in front of them in the heavy rain.
Standing in front of them were the two of Beasts Pirates and Three Calamities.
Wearing a mask, wearing black double-breasted clothes, tall and strong, with a pair of black wings, it is King the Conflagration who is the leader of Three Calamities.
Jhin is the earliest member of Three Calamities. He is not only a Zoan Devil Fruit Dragon-Dragon Fruit·Ancient Zoan·Pteranodon Form ability user, but also has a bounty of up to 1.39 billion Beli. He is regarded by Kaido as his right hand and has extraordinary strength.
Standing side by side with Jhin are Queen the Plague among Three Calamities, Zoan·Dragon-Dragon Fruit·Ancient Zoan·Brachiosaurus Form, whose bounty is only 70 million lower than Jhin.
Queen has a bald head and is fat. At first glance, he looks round and round, like a giant balloon.
Neither of them spoke, letting the downpour of rain hit them. They both stared at the rough sea ahead, with sadness and silent anger in their eyes.
Because they received a bad news that Jack, who went to rescue the members of the Donquixote Family, was attacked by Sakazuki due to incorrect intelligence. All the crew members, including Jack, fell into the sea as the warship was sunk. Based on their understanding of Sakazuki, the probability of Jack's survival was almost zero.
"Boom~"
"Kacha kacha--"
Accompanied by the sounds of thunder, Inazuma tore apart the sky again, illuminating the sea area as bright as day.
At the moment when this sea area was as bright as daylight under the reflection of Inazuma, the figure of a warship riding the wind and waves suddenly appeared in the sea ahead.
Before Queen and Jhin could react, Inazuma suddenly disappeared, and billowing black clouds enveloped the land again, making this sea area almost invisible.
With his amazing vision, even if the lightning flashed away, Jhin could still clearly capture the warship breaking through the waves in front of him.
Without the slightest hesitation, Jhin decisively turned around and ordered, "Command all warships to prepare for boarding battle!"
Rumble--
Before Jin finished speaking, the thunder started again, swallowing up his voice in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, several Inazumas tore through the sky, illuminating the naval fleet several sea miles away.
Bang bang bang bang--
The warship illuminated by Inazuma took advantage of Inazuma's remaining light and decisively launched a bombardment.
Accompanied by the firing of dozens of naval guns, dense shells immediately rose into the sky, tearing through the sky at an astonishing speed and heading toward the Beasts Pirates fleet.
"Damn it!"
Listening to the scream of the cannonballs breaking through the air, the expression on Jhin's mask suddenly changed.
Because just as the shells broke through the air, the residual light of Inazuma also flashed away, and darkness enveloped the sea area again.
The ear-piercing sound pierced the air from far to near.
The next second, deafening explosions occurred one after another in the darkness, and soon the shock wave after the shell exploded swept across unbridled, and the waves rising into the sky mixed with the majestic heavy rain poured on the deck.
Jhin, who was on the deck, did not dare to be careless at all. With his strong strength and the cooperation of Observation Haki, he raised his knife to cut through several oncoming cannonballs.
The moment the shells were cut, they exploded at high altitudes. The rising fire suddenly illuminated the deck of the warship he was on red. The True Imposter, Numbers and Gifters standing behind him and Queen were also rushing to intercept the whizzing shells.
After just one round of shelling, all the Beasts Pirates warships that entered the sea area, including Jhin and the warships where Queen was, fell into chaos. The decks of the warships that were hit by the shells were wailing. One of the warships was extremely unlucky. It was hit by more than a dozen cannonballs at the same time in the dark. While the personnel on board suffered heavy losses, the warship was also quickly engulfed by the rising flames.
"Damn damn it!"
Looking at the flames rising from the sea not far away, Jhin took Den Den Mushi and roared, "Get away from that burning warship, quickly!"
As the leader of Beasts Pirates Three Calamities, Jhin not only has great strength, he also has extremely rich combat experience, especially for pirates of this size shrouded in darkness. Although the rising flames allow them to see the surrounding situation clearly, it will also become the focus of the opponent's attack range.
Sure enough...
As soon as Jin finished speaking, the sound of naval gunfire was heard again from the sea ahead, which was not illuminated by Inazuma.
Accompanied by the harsh sound of breaking through the air from far to near, dense shells fell straight down and exploded around the flaming warship.
