Red the Aloof

Flames erupted, smoke billowed, and the entire uneven ground looked as if it had been struck by a meteor, forming all sorts of canyons and completely altering the landscape.

Standing amidst the blood and gore of mangled flesh, Ye Chen was pale, clearly exhausted. However, there was no one left who could stand.

This time, Ye Chen almost annihilated the pirate crew. There might be some remnants, but they are no longer a threat.

The army of the Als Kingdom arrived late, but upon seeing Ye Chen standing in the blood-soaked ground, they dared not make any rash moves.

Keep in mind, this was the Elastic Pirates! Their captain was a notorious pirate with a bounty of 180 million, and now it seems they've been completely wiped out.

Most importantly, the Elastic Pirates are backed by the Flying Pirates.

"He's that Marine Rear Admiral, the one who specializes in wiping out the forces under the Flying Pirates."

One of the kingdom's military commanders forced himself to remain calm, but looked at Ye Chen with fear.

"Brubrubru"

Just then, the sound of Den Den Mushi suddenly rang out on Ye Chen, causing him to frown.

In the past six months, the Den Den Mushi only rang once, but that was three months ago.

Ignoring everyone else, Ye Chen connected the Den Den Mushi in front of tens of thousands of Kingdom soldiers who dared not move.

"Ye Chen, where are you right now?" A dignified voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

"The Sengoku Admiral?" Ye Chen looked at the Den Den Mushi's expression and voice, and immediately guessed who it was. Moreover, only Sengoku and others knew the Den Den Mushi's number.

"Hey! Where is this place?"

Ye Chen turned his head, looked at Wang Guojun not far away, and asked a question.

"Ah!" The leading army commander of the kingdom tensed up, swallowing hard. "Rear Admiral General, this is the Als Kingdom."

"Admiral of the Sengoku, did you hear that? It's the Als Kingdom."

Turning his head, Ye Chen stared at the Den Den Mushi, wondering what Sengoku wanted to talk to him about.

"Ars, it's not far from Tegusla Island. Go there immediately. Fleet Admiral Kong might be in danger. Garp is on his way. You must..."

The Sengoku was very serious, but halfway through, some things became quite unpleasant to discuss.

What happened?

Ye Chen's eyelids twitched. Wasn't Fleet Admiral Kong always in Marineford? How did he get out? And even encountered danger? In this world, there are only a handful of people who could put Kong in danger.

"About two weeks ago, Patrick Redfield attacked the Celestial Dragons for some reason. This had a huge impact. The Five Elders gave Fleet Admiral Kong Zephyr an order to capture Redfield at all costs. In the New World, Garp was chasing the Roger Pirates, and I was no match for that guy. So Fleet Admiral Kong personally took charge, leaving me to guard Marineford."

The Sengoku period is like a depth charge, with a very strong impact.

Patrick Redfield, a man who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Roger, Whitebeard, and Golden Lion all by himself. Keep in mind that the first three all possessed considerable power, while Patrick Redfield was all alone.

The Celestial Dragons, the World Nobles, who call themselves creators, are known as a scourge on the sea. One can imagine that it must have been these reckless creators who angered Patrick Redfield.

To most people in the world, Celestial Dragons are creators who can control their lives and deaths at will. But to someone of Patrick Redfield's caliber, they are nothing but ants, to be killed at will.

Clearly, the Celestial Dragons who died this time was not just one or two; otherwise, the Five Elders would not have issued the order to spare no effort, thus requiring the Fleet Admiral to personally take action.

Furthermore, Sora's personal intervention is enough to demonstrate how formidable Patrick Redfield is. Even Sengoku admitted he was no match for him. Keep in mind that Sengoku was Admiral, yet he admitted he was no match for him. Just how strong is his opponent?

"Besides you, Sakazuki and Borsalino, who are not far from Tegusla, have also rushed over. The three of you must hold off Garp's arrival. Remember, that man is very strong. You only need to buy time; do not engage him directly."

Finally, Sengoku gave a word of advice.

"I understand." After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Ye Chen became serious. This trip could be very dangerous; one wrong move could result in someone's death.

However, Ye Chen was inexplicably excited because he wanted to truly witness the world's most powerful force.

"What direction Tegusla in?"

Putting away the Den Den Mushi, Ye Chen asked the Kingdom's military commander again.

"The north, but it will take some time." The Army Commander pointed north.

Having found his way, Ye Chen walked into the ruins, picked up a plank at random, and then took to the air, flying towards the coastline.

For him, a single moment wouldn't take long.

Let's go back to two weeks ago.

Tegusla is a large island surrounded by vast desert islands. However, due to the predominantly barren mountains, it is home to only one country with a population of 100,000. Yet, the alcohol produced by this country ranks among the world's top 100, placing it Sixteen!

For this reason, this country has always been a target for pirates and other kingdoms.

But at that very moment, in the waters off Tegusla, on the horizon, ten warships flying the flag of justice appeared in a grand procession on the island.

Upon disembarking, a tall, strong man with a stitched scar below his left eye, wearing a sleeveless black shirt and Fleet Admiral's coat made of white and dark gray, looked at Tegusla, exuding an aura of oppression.

"Fleet Admiral, Red the Aloof Patrick Redfield is on the island and has never left."

Just then, a navy man dressed as an ordinary resident ran out from the island and saluted the sky.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Observation Haki, Sora found a direction and began to move forward, followed by five Vice Admiral, twenty rear Rear Admiral, and some elite naval personnel—a truly massive entourage.

Such a large cast, yet it was all for one man.

Meanwhile, in the center of the island, countless Tegusla residents rushed towards the coastline.

The once bustling and noisy street suddenly quieted down. In the deepest part of the street, in a tavern, a tall and thin man with long hair braided into two plaits hanging over his shoulders, wearing a rose-red shirt and blood-red trousers, and draped in a large blood-red cloak, was enjoying his wine alone, Sisi wicked smile on his face.

Just then, a dignified voice came from outside. "Everyone, maintain order and get all the island's residents on the ship."

"Fleet Admiral Kong!"

Some naval personnel do not want to leave.

"This is an order." Kong's tone was heavy, because he knew all too well that these people were completely useless in the fight.

"Yes!" The navy personnel following behind Kong dispersed and began maintaining order, ensuring that the residents of Tegusla could be smoothly evacuated to the naval ships.

After finishing, Kong stepped into the tavern and walked up to the sinister-looking man. The atmosphere instantly became thick and heavy.

"Long time no see, Kong!"

Holding a wine glass, Patrick Redfield, his entire body flushed crimson, stared into the air with his captivating, scarlet eyes and a smile on his face.
