In a stretch of sea in the middle reaches of the New World.
Besides the Goa Empire's familiar flying warships, the Exile Emperor and the Ark Maxim, more than a dozen other flying warships had appeared in the sky.
On the sea, Pluton's main cannon gleamed with a chilling light.
Aboard were powerful pirates such as Heir to the Devil Bullet and World the Destroyer, as well as Goa barons like Laffitte and Bartolomeo.
The Marine Headquarters fleet and the Black Ten Alliance pirate fleet occupied the waters on either side.
In the central waters, countless massive shadows seemed to be moving through the deep sea, stirring up towering waves.
Large numbers of fish-men surfaced and continuously reported on the situation beneath the sea to Wang Shi.
Uranus was even larger than the Fish-Man Island's Ark of Promise, Noah.
Even with Princess Shirahoshi personally commanding some Sea Kings, she still could not haul Uranus to the surface anytime soon.
"What did Vegapunk say? Can the Mother Flame's offspring flame be sent into the deep sea?"
Wang Shi asked casually. He had already stopped expecting Uranus to be of much use on the frontal battlefield.
He had Viola keep a close eye on Mary Geoise's movements.
Mary Geoise had long since begun gathering its forces.
Wang Shi felt that Imu would not give him the chance to salvage Uranus.
Perhaps Imu had already evaded Viola's Clairvoyance and was on the way here.
Thus, Wang Shi had long entered a state of high alert.
Even the Pluton warship was ready to open fire.
They were simply waiting for this king of the world to appear!
The powerhouses of Marine Headquarters and the Black Ten Alliance were all on guard.
They felt no joy over salvaging Uranus either; their eyes held only tension.
