One Piece: Starting as a Marine Lieutenant, I Slack Off and Get Stronger

Then the old woman jumped onto the black Zeus and immediately delivered an Emperor's Sword strike.

Hey~

Karl spread out his sword energy, looked at the middle-aged woman who seemed to have lost weight, and couldn't help but sigh, "She really has some skills."

Well, after fighting for so long, the biggest impression Big Mom gave Karl was that she was incredibly tough, much tougher than Whitebeard.

It wouldn't be easy for him to handle the older woman in one day, but...

Karl glanced at the nun's photos scattered on the ground not far away. Sigh~ I'll save them for when it's three against one!

The woman's change also caught the attention of Fujitora and Akainu. Akainu coldly snorted and shouted, "Need any help?"

Karl shook his head: "No, you and Fujitora continue to deal with the Charlotte family members and weaken their fighting power. When the time is right, you can come and help me!"

Akainu scoffed and continued his attack on Katakuri. The Charlotte Family's lineup was indeed difficult to deal with, all flashy and unpredictable.

While the battle raged fiercely on Whole Cake Island, the outside world remained completely unaware of it.

The reason is simple: this is a secret operation. Kuzan doesn't want this operation to be like the Marineford War, where anyone can get involved. Therefore, only the Navy's high command knows about this operation.

Even the naval officers and soldiers who came to participate in the battle were gathered together under the pretext of acting, and the truth was not told to them until the last moment.

In fact, Kuzan had no choice but to do this, because Big Mom and Kaido used to be on the same side. Who knew that Big Mom would fall into crisis and Kaido would either kick her while she was down or help her in her time of need.

As time went on, the Big Mom Pirates were already in dire straits.

Apart from a few extremely strong senior officers, almost all the other members were wiped out. Those who are still standing on Whole Cake Island are all outstanding individuals.

It was thanks to Carl that Big Mom was held back; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy for Fujitora and Akainu to clear the area.

"Bang~"

The Lava Fist pierced Katakuri's abdomen with a hissing sound, and large beads of sweat rolled down Katakuri's forehead.

"Tsk~ Still won't fall down? What a tenacious life force!"

"I... I absolutely cannot fall!!!"

Sakazuki slowly withdrew his fist, brushing past Katakuri: "Sorry, I don't have time to play with you anymore."

After saying that, Sakazuki slowly walked towards Karl and the old woman who were fighting in the distance.

Thump! Katakuri collapsed to his knees, staring at the ruins of Whole Cake Island, his eyes filled with resentment...

On the other side, Fujitora slowly sheathed his sword. In front of him was a huge crater, clearly indicating that Fujitora had just used the Gravity Sword: Hell Tribe.

"Are there not many survivors left? Hmm, it seems that this old man can finally lend Mr. Karl a hand."

......

"Hahahaha! Damn it! Die, you bastard!!!"

At this stage, the woman was no longer just anxious; she had completely gone mad.

In less than half a day, the foundation she had painstakingly built over thirty years was destroyed, all thanks to Karl.

Ding Ding Ding ~

Carl effortlessly blocked the old woman's attacks, even more easily than before the fight began.

Because at this point, the big woman was completely disorganized, attacking haphazardly based entirely on instinct. Karl was able to easily defend against her attacks using his Observation Haki, instead of being caught off guard by her chaotic attacks.

The idea that a novice could defeat a master with a flurry of punches is impossible for Karl.

"Dog bites Guren!!!"

bang~

The sneak attack succeeded; Akainu punched Big Mom in the back, delivering a textbook example of a righteous backstab.

Ahhhhh!

The woman screamed in pain, turned her head, and gritted her teeth in fury: "Sakazuki, you damned bastard! I'll kill you!!!"

Sakazuki gave a mocking smile: "I couldn't be happier!"

So, the old lady immediately started fighting with Sakazuki.

Carl, now with nothing to do, stood there with his hands on his hips watching the two fight.

"General Karl, thank you for your hard work."

Karl turned his head and saw Fujitora. His clothes were a little torn, but he was otherwise unharmed. In fact, the holy light energy that Karl had given him before the battle had not been completely used up.

Karl conjured a ball of holy light and threw it at Fujitora: "Just proceeding according to plan. The Charlotte family members have been mostly dealt with?"

Fujitora nodded slightly: "There are no longer any opponents worthy of my battle. Now, only this key figure of the Charlotte family remains."

Carl said with a laugh, "She's a tough nut to crack."

"Haha, with General Karl's abilities, even the toughest challenges can be easily overcome."

"Haha, looks like you're in pretty good shape, you even have the mood to joke around?"

Fujitora smiled slightly: "The cancer that has plagued the sea for many years is finally going to be removed, so I am naturally in a good mood."

During his time as a wanderer, he heard many tragedies that occurred because old ladies wanted to hold tea parties, especially on islands famous for their delicious food.

Such a pirate crew deserves to die.

Chapter 310 The Fall of All Nations

"Haha, then I'll leave it to you. I'll take a break now."

Fujitora nodded and walked towards the old woman without saying a word.

It's impossible to quickly resolve a battle against an opponent as tough as an old lady, not even someone as strong as Karl.

Because although Carl is strong, he is still within the realm of mortals. At most, he can defeat Big Mom, but he can never defeat her one by one like he would the Supernovas.

Therefore, Akainu and Fujitora's mission is to whittle down Big Mom's health bar, and then work together to take her down when she is low on health.

......

Looking at the ruined Whole Cake Island, Carl couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion. This was war! So cruel. Thankfully, he was both the instigator and the victor of the war…

"What's the situation on Whole Cake Island now?"

Kuzan's voice was somewhat urgent, after all, this was the first large-scale campaign he had planned as a marshal.

"It's alright. Right now, besides Big Mom, there are only a handful of people left on Whole Cake Island. They're not worth mentioning. Once Big Mom's stamina is exhausted, Whole Cake Island will disappear from the map."

Kuzan, far away in Marineford, smiled slightly: "Great, thank you for your hard work. Let's finish this battle as soon as possible! Otherwise, our actions will be discovered sooner or later, and it will be troublesome if Kaido finds out."

"Don't worry, I've already taken control of all the guests on Whole Cake Island, so the news won't get out anytime soon."

"Well, whatever you do, do it as soon as possible. I'll be waiting for your good news at Naval Headquarters."

"I try my best."

After hanging up the phone, Carl looked up at the sky and saw a dark figure rushing towards him.

"General Karl, the Straw Hat crew somehow managed to bypass our defenses and escape. Should we give chase?" Major General Peng asked anxiously.

Karl pondered for a moment, then shook his head: "Ignore them. Just let the generals surrounding Whole Cake Island stay put."

"But... Admiral Karl, what if the Straw Hat crew leaks our plan to raid Whole Cake Island? Then we..."

Carl waved his hand: "Don't worry, they won't."

Carl was very confident about this.

Where will Luffy go after leaving Whole Cake Island?

There's only one answer: Wano Country. And Wano Country? It's Kaido's territory.

Karl would love for Luffy to fight Kaido so the Navy could reap the benefits.

Although Luffy has lost many allies now, such as Kid and Law, who is Luffy? He's the chosen one. If Kaido can defeat Luffy, that would be truly... amazing!

the other half.

Fujitora walked towards the older woman, slowly drawing his cane sword. A purple aura flashed by, and then...

A huge meteorite appeared in the sky and crashed straight down on the old lady.

The two, who were fighting back and forth, suddenly felt the sky darken. The old woman looked up and her pupils suddenly contracted.

"Meteorite?"

Akainu curled his lip and instantly transformed into a pool of lava.

The next second, boom!

A meteorite fell, and the old lady, unable to dodge in time, was hit squarely, creating a huge crater on Cake Island.

"Hey, Fujitora, I'm still here!"

Fujitora smiled faintly: "Admiral Akainu, aren't you alright?"

"you!"

bang bang~

"This is too much!"
