The World Government did not dare use Dyna Stone in this war as it had against the Monster Legion.
Its attack on the Monster Legion had been an act of revenge.
But Golden Lion Shiki could retaliate too.
With his power to control Islands, Golden Lion Shiki already had a nuclear weapon in his hands.
If he dropped dozens of Islands, who could escape?
A Dyna Stone explosion might inflict devastating losses on the Pirates, but their retaliation would exact a terrible price in return.
Better not to use it at all.
The main reason was that the World Government had no confidence it could wipe out every Pirate in one strike, as it had the Monster Legion.
The blast radius of dozens of Dyna Stones had been enough to cover all of Monster Paradise and destroy most of the Monster Legion's forces in an instant.
Against Pirates arriving from every direction, that was impossible.
More importantly, the World Government did not control when the war would begin.
The Battle of the Golden Sea could erupt at any moment.
Even with vast stockpiles, a fierce war would burn through supplies quickly.
Weapons, food, and every other kind of provision would be needed.
Painkillers, alcohol, and antibiotics were essential medicines.
But because the World Government could not predict when fighting would break out, it could not stockpile enough war supplies in advance.

There had been no time to prepare in advance or move Dyna Stone onto each
