"Quick! Turn! Turn!"
"It's Wright Commodore from G3 Branch! That lunatic who leaves no one alive!"
"Run away! The great pirate with a bounty of 100 million is vulnerable to him!"
"Boo~!" "Boom!"
The tactics used by warships to deal with pirates: visual distance, shell coverage. Although the accuracy is impressive, it cannot withstand the many shells - as long as a few shells are hit, with the strength of these ordinary pirate ships, they will basically either lose power or be on the verge of disintegration. They can only stop in place and wait for the warships to come forward for a boarding battle.
For warships led by ordinary generals Marines, more pirates are captured alive in boarding battles. In extreme cases, hawkish generals like Sakazuki, Onigumo, and Doberman are likely to directly bombard and sink the pirate ships from a distance. When the pirates are so powerful that the shells cannot defeat them, they will choose to board the battle.
Because Combined Assault Formation reported by Wright and Zephyr when Training Camp graduated, after being deduced and improved by Marine Headquarters tactical experts in recent years, it was widely promoted to grassroots soldiers and received surprising results - the overall combat effectiveness of Marines has increased by several levels!
Therefore, for Wright - or for the current Marines, boarding battle is no longer a dangerous tactic of last resort, but an important way for sailors to practice their combat skills. If you have the ability to kill or arrest senior cadres of the pirate group, military merit Wright will not be greedy for half a cent.
"We were hit!"
"Captain! The main mast was damaged by Marines shelling! We can't move!"
"Asshole! Get ready for a boarding battle! You have to kill a few sailors before you die!"
As a result, this boastful pirate captain was well educated on how difficult it is to "kill a few sailors".
The standard process is to identify whether they have harmed civilians or Marines - just look at this ferocity, no one will believe it - Wright can declare their death penalty.
"Boarding battle! Attack with the whole army! Surrender without killing, and leave no resisters behind!"
Wright gave the order - yes, unlike before, Wright no longer adheres to the guiding ideology of "killing the guilty" when he goes to sea this time. It wasn't because Wright was soft-hearted, but the painful cries of his subordinates during hard training gave him an epiphany——
For some people, killing them with a knife is a sign of mercy and irresponsibility for the crimes they have committed - a punishment of Impel Down that is worse than death is more suitable for them - what Wright has to do is to guarantee that the damned will simply die, and the damned will be worse than death.
As an acquaintance who often escorts pirates to Impel Down, deputy director Magellan's "nemesis", Wright and Magellan can also be considered They are acquaintances, and the deputy director often thanks Wright for helping him relieve his diarrhea problem... Magellan is still very happy with the small request of sentencing - this is also a dedication to his duty.
In a fierce operation, the pirates were eliminated by the "standard elimination procedure". The last supplies on the pirate ship were moved to the warship. Wright sent the pirate ship to the bottom of the sea with several huge golden slashes.
"Report Wright Commodore!" Wright's captain reported, "The materials seized in this battle are worth about 50 million Beli, arrested three officers of the pirate group except the captain, thirty-seven ordinary members, Execute sixty-three, we have no deaths, no serious injuries, and forty-six minor injuries, please give instructions to your Excellency Commodore!"
"Tsk... they are a bunch of poor people." Wright turned around and raised his eyebrows. "The old rule is that half of the supplies are handed over to the branch, and the other half is kept for you to divide. The pirates will liberate the branch and gather together to escort Impel Down at the end of the month."
"In addition, please ask the ship's doctor to take a look at the forty-six people with minor injuries. If there are serious injuries that have been ignored, call me over."
"Yes! Your Excellency Commodore!"
With his own exclusive warship, Wright's attitude towards loot has also changed - although the maintenance and personnel expenses of the warship are planned by the branch, the commander is also allowed to allocate part of the loot on his own.
In the past, most of the bounty Wright received was used for training - purchasing training equipment, high-quality food such as Sea Kings meat, and travel expenses. Although there is a lot of surplus, it is of little use, so I don't care much about it. But now, it is better to provide some benefits to the officers and soldiers on the ship.
Moreover, Wright no longer serves as a nanny - Wright Even if Wright is not on the ship, the warship must still be able to exert its combat capabilities. If the treatment ability of doctors is not cultivated, will the injured people who Wright is not on the ship have to wait to die? That's why Wright will treat serious injuries that affect the battle——
Of course, if you are willing to spend military merit to ask Wright to treat minor injuries or even remove scars, you can even treat your family and friends - this one has attracted many people to fight bravely to earn military merit.
"Bolo-Bolo-Bolo-Bolo——"
Den Den Mushi rang. Wright withdrew his attention and took out Den Den Mushi. It was Garp.
"Kaka——"
"Hey, old man, why did you remember to call me? You killed another pirate group today. Why don't you go back and bring you donuts?"
"Hmm... you better understand me..." Den Den Mushi tried his best to imitate Garp's big face and made a bared teeth gesture.
"Sengoku just told me that North Blue has a mission over there. Rosinante, who was in the same class as you, was performing it——"
Wright's heart tightened, could it be?
"That mission is very secretive, and I don't know the details. Everything went smoothly at first, but now the situation there may have changed - Rosinante's status is different."
Status is different? Not dead? That means it's still not too late!
"Old man, did Old Man Sengoku give Rosinante my "Lightforged Pointing Crystal"? This matter is very important!"
Den Den Mushi was silent for a while, and then another voice came, it was Sengoku Admiral - so Garp is now in Sengoku's office! This old guy just ran back to the headquarters and was lazy again!
"Wright... I am Sengoku. Let me explain next. The relationship between me and Rosinante is not ordinary... Therefore, Rosinante did get two "Lightforged Pointing Crystal", which is why I found you."
"At this time, Tsuru's fleet is hunting down the recently famous pirate group "Donquixote Family" in North Blue. Rosinante is responsible for the investigation... providing the location of the Donquixote Family, but recently Tsuru has been unable to receive feedback from Rosinante."
"Just now, Rosinante had the last phone call with me - but I felt something was not right with Rosinante..."
"Wright, the mission that Rosinante is engaged in, and himself... are all very important. As one of his few friends, and with the corresponding strength, I hope you will rush to North Blue, just in case."
"No problem, Sir Admiral, I will return to the headquarters now - it will take a lot of time to go to North Blue. When you reach the North Blue range, please also tell me the last communication location of Rosy, so that it will be easier."
At this time, Wright didn't dare to call Old Man Sengoku. Sengoku didn't say anything, but Wright knew his relationship with Rosinante - there were only ten pointing crystals, and Sengoku gave Rosinante two!
"Okay, when you return to headquarters, I will arrange for you to go to New World G1 Branch quickly. There will be a supporting warship over there to take you through Calm Belt and into North Blue!"
"Understood!"
