One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 181 Summoning That Woman
Wano Country, in the northwest.

The thick white smoke formed by the evaporation of large amounts of seawater reached the horizon and could be clearly seen even from hundreds of miles away.

"That's the calm zone!"

On the watchtower of the warship, the marines quickly spotted the anomaly, but they were too far away to determine the specifics.

The colonel leading the team came to the deck and picked up his binoculars to observe.

"Volcanic eruption?"

The huge plumes of smoke rising in the distance looked exactly like the scene created by an underwater volcanic eruption, but he felt uneasy.

The warship was located in the southwest of Wano Country, while the thick smoke was located in the doldrums in the northwest of Wano Country, forming a triangular shape.

Therefore, the volcanic eruption site is very close to Wano Country, and judging from the size of the smoke, the scale of this volcanic eruption is extraordinary.

They are tasked with surveillance, and any unusual occurrences near Wano Country must be carefully investigated.

"Go over and have a look!"

"Yes!"

The surveillance warship approached the thick smoke, but just as it entered within fifty nautical miles, the Beasts' warship emerged from the dense fog ahead!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Gunfire roars!

New World, G-14 Naval Branch.

A peacock broke into the base commander's office.

"Vice Admiral Dol, just now, the warship responsible for monitoring the beasts was sunk. This is the last photo they sent back!"

"Bring it quickly!"

Dole took the photo, her heart sinking.

In the photo, several large warships of the Beasts are approaching, with huge white plumes of smoke billowing from behind them.

It is impossible to determine what happened.

But there was one thing she knew: the smoke pillar must be related to the Hundred Beasts, otherwise the Hundred Beasts would not have sent a fleet to blockade the sea area.

We must find out the truth!
"Contact headquarters!"

"Yes!"

At this moment, within the doldrums.

Goode stood in the seawater, with lava constantly gushing out from beneath his feet. He walked for a distance in the doldrums before stopping.

To build a super-large fortress like the Navy's G series, the foundation must have at least a small to medium-sized island.

The workload is enormous.

But there are also ways to take shortcuts.

With a thought, Goode controlled the magma to surge downwards, quickly connecting with the seabed and extending his senses along the earth towards the Earth's core.

This place is very close to Wano Country, and the seabed is relatively high, with the water depth only a few hundred meters.

With his abilities, he could easily trigger a small-scale crustal movement, squeezing the earth below upwards.

"Boom!!!"

Soon, the seabed trembled slightly.

The unusual situation immediately startled the fish living in this area, causing them to flee in all directions.

There are also large sea monsters.

"Crash!"

One by one, sea kings emerged from the surface of the sea, and even the smallest of them were comparable in size to large warships.

"The food problem is solved too!"

Goode raised his head, looked at the bizarrely sized sea kings, grinned, and drool dripped from his mouth.

With so many sea monsters as food, we can save a lot of money!

The sea kings noticed Goode, and although Goode was less than a tenth the size of them, he made them feel threatened.

The next moment, an earthquake struck!

Suddenly, the sea beneath Goode's feet bulged, and a large amount of seawater spread outwards. As the sea level rose rapidly, land covered with mud, sand, and shellfish appeared on the surface.

Groudon in the distance.

The pirates were stunned into silence.

"An island has risen from the sea!"

They thought that creating land was already a miracle, but the island that appeared out of nowhere refreshed their understanding once again.

What a power this is!
"Hehehehehe!"

Goode spread his arms and laughed, looking at the sea king who was staring blankly not far away. He glared and fired a laser beam, which instantly pierced through the sea king's body.

What are you watching this for!
Upon seeing this, the other sea kings immediately dived underwater in terror.

Goode transformed back into human form and returned to the Groudon.

This is enough for now.

Too large a target would be easily discovered. We should wait until this fortress is nearly complete before paving the road and building the other fortress. "Has Halding returned?"

"almost there!"

Goode nodded slightly.

Building a large fortress requires a massive workforce, but with giants involved, the construction time will be greatly reduced.

Moreover, when attacked, the giants can be transformed into combatants.

Such a large project will inevitably be discovered by the outside world sooner or later, and conflicts will be inevitable. It all comes down to who has the higher level of awareness.

Resources were also consumed at a tremendous rate.

"Good Boss!"

A colossal giant warship sailed in from afar, and Hajrudin stood on the deck, waving to Goode.

Behind him stood a group of giant warriors.

At least a hundred people!

Such a large army of giants has not appeared on the sea for many years, and even the navy's giant vice admirals number less than 10.

Goode's smile blossomed.

Just in time!
As time passed, the pirates of the New World were all engrossed in fighting for the title of Yonko, while the Beasts, the instigators, ceased their conquests.

But the beasts did not stop moving.

Every day, a large number of transport ships, fully loaded with building materials, head to Wano Country. This unusual situation has made many forces feel uneasy.

Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.

"Marshal Sengoku, our intelligence warship has been sunk by the beasts once again."

"understood."

Zhan Guo, exhausted, rubbed his head.

Since the news came from Dor, the navy has dispatched more than a dozen small and medium-sized warships, but all of them have been sunk by the Beasts.

They can't even get close to Wano Country.

In addition to the recent actions of the Beasts, with so many supplies disappearing without a trace, it is clear that the Beasts are brewing a huge conspiracy.

The longer it dragged on, the more uneasy he became.

The most important thing now is to find out what the Beasts are doing so that the Navy can respond in time.

Vice Admiral Tsuru frowned and said, "Since our warships cannot approach Wano Country from the New World, why not try to conduct reconnaissance from other routes?"

"Ah He, what do you mean?"

"The Calm Belt!"

"."

The Warring States period was lost in thought.

The Calm Belt is the lair of Sea Kings, and even warships cannot stay there for long, making reconnaissance through the Calm Belt extremely risky.

Vice Admiral Tsuru suggested, "Kuja's ships can sail freely in the calm zone, so we can follow Kuja."

"That woman is probably..."

The Warring States period was even more distressed.

The last time I summoned the Pirate Empress, it caused a lot of trouble. It won't be so easy to summon her again.

She's so willful!

But there really isn't a good solution right now.

The great sea route, the windless zone.

Daughter Island.

The two younger sisters were furious.

"Big sister, the navy is here again!"

"The warship is just three kilometers away!"

Only two or three months had passed since the last summons, and the navy had arrived again, which infuriated the two younger sisters.

My older sister hates summons the most!

"What a useless bunch of men, always asking me for everything."

Hancock walked to the window without paying any attention.

"Did the Navy say anything?"

"The Navy said that as long as my sister agrees to this forced mobilization and assists in capturing the Disaster, they will not trouble her again for the next three years."

"Three years?"

Hancock's eyes twitched slightly.

This deal was pretty good.
