East Blue, Goa Empire, Sasp Province.
The vast and mighty imperial fleet stretched for miles, its warships blotting out the sky, its imposing presence awe-inspiring.
The Exile Emperor sailed ahead, crates of cannonballs and Poison Gas Shell disappearing onto the deck.
"Judge, it seems Queen and Doflamingo both want to kill you this time."
Wang Shi casually banished the ignited and activated cannonballs into the void, also banishing some of Eric's ultimate Wind Blade and El Drago's Laser Sonic Cannon.
According to Diamante, Doflamingo and Morgans are now working to shut down Germa 66's intelligence.
There are quite a few factions that want to see Germa 66 suffer.
Of course, some people just want to see the excitement.
Some people also want to see the Goa Empire and Germa 66 both suffer heavy losses, or even one of them be wiped out.
I heard that Morgans has started live streaming, providing live footage and entertainment for major Affiliated Nation, underground forces, and even the Celestial Dragons around the world.
With the traps set by the Wang Shi, the [Exile Emperor] returned to the Grand Fleet.
We await the arrival of the Germa 66 Legion.
After all, Judge was the one who actively sought trouble.
···
At the moment when the sun reaches its zenith.
A dense array of Snail Ship, exuding a chilling aura, appeared on the distant horizon.
"Judge is indeed arrogant and conceited; anyone who challenges Germa's authority will face his retribution."
On the Flamingo, located on the right edge of the Grand Fleet, Diamante laughed heartily, though there was a hint of resentment in his voice.
Regardless of the outcome, this war will benefit the Donquixote Family.
If Germa 66 defeats the Goa Empire, the Donquixote Family can continuously sell arms to the Goa Empire, supporting the Goa Empire in its ongoing war with Germa 66, making money while simultaneously weakening Germa.
If Germa 66 suffers a defeat in the East Blue, the Donquixote Family will have to take over Judge's business and resources in the North Blue.
If both sides suffer heavy losses, that would be even better.
Donquixote could eat even more.
"Diamante, you still haven't found a chance to give Baby5 a task."
Old man Lao G reminded Diamante, this unreliable top official.
To be honest, if it weren't for Diamante, Trebol, Pica being among the first to follow Doflamingo...
He was even Doflamingo's savior and the one who gave him the String-String Fruit.
Otherwise, how could Diamante and Trebol have firmly secured their positions as top officials?
Lao G and Gladius are estimated to be stronger than Diamante and Trebol.
When Doflamingo and his two sons were tied to a wall and shot to death by civilians, it was Doflamingo's dying rage that Awakening his kingly potential.
The burst of Conqueror's Haki stunned the civilians and attracted the attention of pirates like Diamante and Trebol.
At that time, Diamante's pirate crew had just been completely defeated by the enemy, and they all believed that Doflamingo, who possessed the qualities of a king, could lead them to greater strength.
Therefore, Diamante, Trebol, Pica, Vergo decisively pledged allegiance to the young Doflamingo, and presented him with the String-String Fruit and a Flintlock.
Diamante and the other three witnessed Doflamingo's patricide and became Doflamingo new 'family'.
···
"Hmph, that ignorant little traitor, Baby5, always stays by Wang Shi's side. What can I do about it!"
Diamante, with a dark expression, began to complain irritably.
"Let's get through this war first!"
Machvise, looking at the Germa army in the distance, interrupted Diamante and Lao G's discussion.
Meanwhile, the fat Buffalo tried his best to make himself inconspicuous, afraid of being beaten up again by Diamante and Lao G.
Buffalo was incredibly depressed at the thought of his childhood friend Baby 5 leaving the Donquixote Family.
His life in the Donquixote Family will certainly become even more difficult from now on.
···
On the Exile Emperor.
"They really just charged right through like that?"
"It seems that the tyrannical behavior of the Germa 66 evil legion over the past ten or twenty years has made you really believe that you are the true Overlord of the North Blue."
Wang Shi watched as Germa 66's Snail Fleet charged forward fearlessly and couldn't help but chuckle.
Today he will shatter the demonic legend of Germa 66.
"So many Snail Ships!"
Eric and Van Augur became incredibly nervous, as this was their first time facing such a large-scale war.
The enemy was still the infamous Overlord of the North Blue.
"Hey ha ha ha! Here I come! Today, I, Bartolomeo, will make the title of Hero of the East Blue resound throughout the world!"
"I am the Hero of the East Blue!"
Bartolomeo and El Drago both spoke up, expressing their fondness for the nickname "Hero of the East Blue."
"Overlord of the North Blue, after defeating them, will I be qualified to seek out Hawkeye Mihawk...?"
Zoro gripped the Sandai Kitetsu and muttered to himself, realizing how vast the gap was between him and a true swordsman after training with Bogard and Diamante these past few days.
Bogard at least had the Daimyo title of a naval hero's second-in-command, while Diamante was merely a member of the Shichibukai, yet Bogart was far superior to him.
The road ahead of him is still very, very long.
However, Wang Shi's words, "Don't underestimate your growth rate," made Zoro even more determined.
No matter how strong the enemy is, we can still surpass them.
"Germa 66 is an evil legion that destroys homes and nations, and I will surely crush them with my sword of justice!"
Silver-haired Saka gripped the Ryo Wazamono, Yubashiri, his eyes intensely focused. He was at least ten times stronger than he had been on Shimotsuki Island.
Indeed, only by going out to sea and gaining experience can one become stronger faster!
"If I survive this war, I can finally take off this Slave Collar!"
Steel Bear, Jango, and the Cat Brothers were both afraid and eager.
Once they gain the Wang Shi's approval and officially become subjects of the Goa Empire, they can gradually achieve success and rise to the position of nobles.
"I want to become the first female Baron of the Goa Empire!"
The underworld boss, Dezaya, had a look of longing in her eyes. "Your Wang Shi, I will definitely make you look at me in a new light!"
Dezaya, who had been resentful of Bartolomeo since childhood, couldn't stand seeing Bartolomeo become an Imperial Baron and surpass her.
She will rise to the top through her own strength!
···
On the Snail Fleet of Germa 66.
"Wang Shi, you brat, actually assembled such a large fleet!"
"However, how could those ordinary humans possibly be a match for my strongest Clone Soldier!"
Judge's expression was slightly serious, but more so confident.
His Clone Soldier are fearless and tireless, and are all powerful soldiers capable of taking on ten or twenty enemies at once.
"Father, we will definitely take down Wang Shi and crush this rabble as quickly as possible!"
Ichiji and Yonji showed no fear; no matter how large the fleet, it was nothing more than ants.
At worst, we can just spend a little more time annihilating them.
"Excellent! After eliminating Wang Shi, unleash a massacre and show them that the Vinsmoke's authority is inviolable!!"
Judge is very confident in his most powerful cyborg son.
Moreover, he had made ample preparations to deal with Wang Shi, an ability user.
That bastard Wang Shi can only swagger around in the Weakest Sea; if he encounters Germa 66 at full strength, he will kneel down in an instant.
