Kong could be clearly seen from the central army.
The left flank, right flank, and center were all under attack simultaneously, and the defensive line was like being stabbed by three sharp knives at the same time under the fierce attack of the Allied forces.
Where are those men in black robes?
He roared behind him.
"Send the Black Turn Squad!"
Dozens of dark figures rushed out from the reserve team.
Wrapped in black robes, their faces hidden beneath hoods, each person exuded a chilling and eerie aura.
They charged into the battlefield, heading straight for the center. Loki's Iron Thunder slammed down, and a man in black robes caught it.
A burst of lightning struck, and the man in black robes was forced back several steps, but surprisingly, he did not fall.
Loki's pupils contracted.
Few could withstand a single blow from his Iron Thunder.
The men in black robes each sought out the allied forces' top fighters.
Two men in black robes entangled Loki, one on his left and one on his right, working in perfect coordination.
Although Iron Thunder was powerful and heavy, the black-robed man's movements were unpredictable, always managing to avoid a direct confrontation at the last moment.
The offensive down the middle lane was contained.
Roy had a clear view from his vantage point.
The aura of those black-robed figures is the same as that of Imu's black mist; they must be puppet warriors created by the Nineteenth King using Davy Jones Origin.
Each one possesses combat strength approaching that of Admiral, and is protected by black mist, making them impervious to ordinary attacks.
" Hawk Eyes."
Roy spoke,
"Take a small squad to the middle lane and kill those men in black robes."
Hawk Eyes nodded, and in a flash, he rushed towards the middle lane.
Black Blade Yoru, unleashing a thousand-meter-long green slash.
The slash landed precisely in the center of the Black Turn Squad's formation, instantly cleaving two black-robed figures in two.
Black mist surged from the broken torso, attempting to reform, but Hawk Eyes's slash, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, forcefully shattered the black mist, preventing it from ever gathering again.
Enel.
Roy continued to give orders,
"Take the lightning troops to the left flank and suppress the Army's ability users."
"Hahaha! No problem, Captain!"
Enel transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged to the left.
Ten thousand bolts of lightning erupted from his body, covering the entire left flank of the battlefield.
The Army's special forces were struck by lightning, falling in droves.
Kaido seized the opportunity and charged forward with his All-Stars, completely tearing apart the left flank of the defense.
The black-robed men in the middle lane were mostly dealt with by Hawk Eyes like cutting melons and vegetables. The remaining ones, seeing the situation was not good, tried to retreat, but Loki smashed them all into black mist with a single hammer blow.
The Giant Tribe warriors advanced side by side, forcing the Army's central defensive line to retreat repeatedly.
Kong watched as his painstakingly constructed defenses crumbled under the fierce attack from three directions, his face turning ashen.
He drew his long sword from his waist, slashed back the Red Count, and personally charged into the center of the battlefield.
Iron fists and blades struck alternately, cutting down the first few Allied soldiers who were charging at the front.
But the Red Count's figure followed closely, his blood-red claws attacking from all directions, forcing Kong to turn around and block.
The battle raged from dawn until noon, and then from noon until dusk.
On the edge of the Red Line, corpses were piled up layer upon layer.
The blood soaked into the red soil, making it sticky to walk on.
Both sides were blinded by rage, and neither retreated an inch.
On the left flank of the battlefield, Kaido had already transformed back into human form, standing atop a mountain of corpses while carrying the Hassaikai.
He was covered in blood, some from enemies and some from his own. Several of his dragon scales were shattered, and blood was still seeping from his wounds, but his laughter grew increasingly fierce.
"Hahaha! Again! I'll take as many as you want!"
He kicked away a charging heavy infantryman, and with a sweeping motion of his Hassaikai, another group felled.
Queen had already emptied three boxes of virus ammunition and was squatting on a damaged Pacifista mech, loading new virus ammunition into his gun.
Jack's tusks were broken in half, and he was covered in wounds, yet he still charged like a mad beast, causing the Army's phalanx to stagger and fall.
Jin's wing was ripped open, and the flames dimmed considerably, but it still swooped back and forth in the air, turning the Army's positions into a sea of fire.
The Beasts Pirates suffered heavy casualties, but no one retreated an inch.
The opposing Army surged forward like a tide, wave after wave.
On the right flank of the battlefield, Luffy has switched to his Gear Fifth form several times.
Despite being extremely exhausted, he still laughed heartily and fought with increasing vigor.
Zoro's three swords were all dulled, and he had several wounds on his body, yet his Demonic Aura grew stronger.
Sanji's suit was tattered, blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth, but his Diable Jambe was getting heavier and heavier with each kick.
Of the lieutenant Vice Admiral who were holding them back, two had already fallen, and the remaining three were all wounded and struggling to hold on.
In the mid-lane battlefield, Hawk Eyes was already engaged in combat with the Black Robe Squad.
Black Blade Yoru swung it repeatedly, sparks flying everywhere.
The black-robed squad suffered repeated defeats, their bodies riddled with knife wounds.
Loki's Iron Thunder had already smashed through three waves of enemy charges, and the Giant Tribe ' phalanx had lost a third of its men, but the front line remained as solid as a rock.
Sabo's Revolutionary Army had circled around from the left flank to the rear of the Army, constantly harassing the supply lines and blowing up several enemy ammunition depots.
Shanks ' Red Hair Pirates are elusive, ambushing every road that Army reinforcements must pass through, which has delayed the arrival of Kong's reinforcements.
Roy remained standing on the high rock behind them.
His Observation Haki was always fully deployed, and no movement on the entire battlefield could escape his perception.
Eighty percent of the Army's forces have already been deployed, and the reserves have long been exhausted.
Kong- handed, with only his last royal guard remaining.
The defensive line has been compressed to nearly ten miles; if we retreat any further, we will reach the outer defensive perimeter of Mary Geoise.
"That's about it."
Roy said something in a low voice.
He slowly raised his right hand, preparing to join the final reserve force—the elite troops of the Hachinosu headquarters.
Just then, his Observation Haki suddenly activated.
Several powerful auras are rapidly approaching from the direction of Mary Geoise.
Moreover, that aura... originated from the same source as the Holy Knights, but was far stronger.
Roy's eyes narrowed.
They've arrived.
The World Government's true trump card.
As expected, Kong had been hiding a trump card all along.
The next second, several more figures in black robes descended from the sky and landed in the very center of the Army position.
There were five people in total, all wrapped in large black robes and wearing masks, revealing only pairs of cold eyes.
As soon as they landed, their Black Turn aura spread out, engulfing the battlefield like black water.
The leader raised his hand, and a black blade of light materialized out of thin air, slashing fiercely towards the giant formation in the middle.
"Careful!"
Loki roared, and Iron Thunder was placed in front of him.
clang--!
The black blade flashed as it struck the Iron Thunder, sending sparks flying.
Loki's massive body slid back two steps, shattering the rocks beneath his feet.
His expression changed.
What incredible strength!
" The Celestial Dragons ' trump card?" Loki gritted his teeth, his golden vertical pupils fixed on the black-robed figures.
These five people are far stronger than the previous men in black robes.
The five people remained silent.
The leader waved his hand.
The remaining four immediately dispersed: one went to the left flank, one to the right flank, one to flank around the rear, and one to stay in the middle to provide support.
Wherever the man in black robes went, the allied forces' offensive was immediately halted.
The black-robed figure heading to the left wing raised his hand and summoned a sky full of black flames, forcefully blocking Kaido's dragon breath.
The black-robed man heading to the right wing produced a long black whip, and with one lash, he forced Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji to retreat simultaneously.
The black-robed man who had circled around confronted Shanks, and the two engaged in a fierce battle, their swords flashing.
The black-robed man who remained in the middle lane clashed with Hawk Eyes, their swords flashing against each other in a fierce and evenly matched battle.
Seeing Kong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He immediately ordered a full-scale counterattack.
When the Army soldiers saw that reinforcements had arrived, their morale soared, and they charged forward with shouts.
The allied offensive was immediately halted, and the battle lines began to retreat.
High on the cliff, Roy's eyes darkened.
"They've finally decided to take out their savings."
He flexed his wrists.
With a "clang," Shusui was drawn half an inch from its sheath.
It's time to get involved ourselves.
