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

After listening to Dragon's explanation, Kuzan took a deep breath: "I understand. I will inform Carl immediately."

"Then please!"

Kuzan waved his hand: "What time is it now? Stopping Im is saving ourselves. We will all cooperate without you saying it!"

A few minutes later, Kuzan, radiating a chilling aura, appeared beside the Giant of Light, Karl: "Karl! Can you hear me?"

Carl turned his head to look at Kuzan: "What's wrong?"

"Vegapunk has a way to break through Uranus's protective force field, but he needs our cooperation to help him collect data on Uranus."

bang~

After Karl unleashed Divine Protection to block Uranus's energy cannon, he asked, "Is this information reliable?"

"In any case, we have no choice but to trust Vegapunk now. Do you have a better idea?"

Carl nodded silently: "Alright, let's do it!"

"By the way, you'd better turn back to normal. All the people who can't fly have been evacuated, including the Revolutionary Army."

Carlton breathed a sigh of relief, now he had nothing to worry about.

"Okay, I got it. I'll tell Straw Hat Boy too."

Karl immediately and gently withdrew from his Holy Light Arbiter form, simultaneously flashing to Luffy's ear: "Luffy, stop using the Giant form, just use your normal form. Next, we're going to..."

After hearing the next plan, Luffy grinned.

"Haha, I told you we should do this! Let's get started!!!"

Chapter 383 The Fragmented Red Earth Continent

After Karl and Luffy withdrew from the "Battle of the Giants," the Marine Admirals and the Revolutionary Army took over the competition.

As the Fleet Admiral, Kuzan set an example by directly awakening his Devil Fruit powers.

It seems that Kuzan wants to tell the world that before becoming a Fleet Admiral, he was also one of the Navy's top combat forces.

Code name: Aokiji!

The weather suddenly turned gloomy, and the biting cold wind, carrying bone-scraping ice shards, ravaged the Red Earth. At this moment, half of Kuzan's body had turned into pale ice. Kuzan exhaled a breath of pale white mist and sounded the horn of attack.

"The Ice Age!!!"

Crunch, crunch~

The red earth is covered by ice, forming a region dominated by ice with Kuzan at its center.

"Ice Block Pheasant Beak"

Sizzle sizzle sizzle~

A surge of icy air formed a gigantic ice bird, flapping its wings and whipping up deathly ice crystals as it hurtled toward Uranus in the sky!

Boom!

The moment it struck Uranus's protective field, ice crystals flew everywhere, forming a white shockwave that spread outwards, demonstrating just how terrifying the power of this attack was.

However, Uranus's protective field only flickered briefly before quickly returning to its original state, forming that despairing barrier.

Sakazuki's lips curled into a slight smile as he removed his black leather hood and tossed it aside, saying with a hint of amusement, "Kuzan's working so hard, I can't fall behind..."

Glug glug~ Glug glug~ Sizzle~

Sakazuki's body transformed into magma, releasing astonishing heat, making the Red Line continent somewhat "living up to its name."

As expected, Sakazuki went all out, awakened his Devil Fruit, and activated it!

At that moment, everyone felt the air around them become hot and dry. Of course, the most uncomfortable were those caught in the middle, with ice on one side and lava on the other, a true case of being caught between ice and fire.

"Meteor Volcano!!!"

Bang bang bang bang~

Sakazuki instantly transformed into a magma cannon, launching countless magma fists into the sky, slamming them towards Uranus. Although the hit rate was appalling, Uranus was simply too big!

However, judging from the results, Sakazuki's destructive power far exceeded that of Kuzan, after all, magma is inherently more deadly than ice.

Ape: Why are you all so showy?

There was no other way; as a former colleague of Kuzanzakaski, Yuanzi didn't want to be looked down upon by others.

It's just awakening, right? How could Yuanzi not know how? You know, he's notorious for being one-sided in everything!

biubiubiu~

At that moment, Karl saw the light.

Unlike Kuzan and Sakazuki's awakening, the ape's awakening did not change the environment, but was a massive "shock of light".

This momentum surprised even Karl; was the ape really that strong?

Dragon was also somewhat moved at this moment. The Navy truly deserved to be the overlord of the seas. Three Logia-type Ability users were enough to change the course of a war.

If the Navy decides to help the World Government, the Revolutionary Army will have absolutely no chance. And that doesn't even take into account Karl's combat strength. You can imagine how strong the Navy is on paper!

"Let's go too! The revolutionary army can't just stand by and watch!"

Huhuhu~

The wind howled, and a gale swept around Dragon, making his robes flutter wildly. Soon, the green gale above Dragon gathered into a tornado, growing stronger and stronger.

If the earth is divided by ice and lava, then the sky is the territory of Dorrag.

"The revolutionary spirit!!"

Whoosh! Dozens of tornadoes, carrying lava or ice, roared toward Uranus.

Boom boom boom~

Under the combined attack of the group, Uranus could only passively defend himself, constantly shifting his force field to absorb and release energy, but he remained unharmed.

On the other side, Vegapunk excitedly recorded the data, shouting, "Yes, that's right! That's it! I'm about to unravel the secret of the Uranus field!!!"

Fujitora stood silently behind Vegapunk, his face expressionless, only occasionally glancing up at the sky, calculating how much time they had left.

"Dr. Vegapunk, we don't have much time left."

Vegapunk calmed down a bit and looked at Fujitora: "How much time do we have left?"

"At the current speed of the moon, we have about five more days..."

"Five days?" Vegapunk frowned, did a quick calculation in his mind, and shook his head.

"Based on your estimates and the distance between the Earth and the Moon, the Moon's current speed is about 2400 kilometers per hour. However, the closer the Moon gets to us, the faster it will be!"

"So, how much time do we have left?"

"Two days, preferably within two days, to stop the moon from continuing its movements. Only then can we be absolutely certain of success. Otherwise... even if the world is not destroyed, the losses will be extremely severe."

Whew~ Fujitora let out a long sigh, looking worriedly at the chaotic battlefield.

These monsters are bound to create miracles, right?

A day later, the battle was still fierce, but the red earth continent that separated the four seas had become a scene of devastation.

Gale-force winds, icy cold, lava, flames, sword marks, and countless craters resembling those left by meteorite impacts...

Red Earth Continent: I'm knocking on the horse-like creatures! A bunch of newbies!!!

A day ago, Karl's sword opened the Heavenly Gate, connecting the North Sea and the East Sea. A day later, the four seas were open to traffic, which shows how devastated the Red Earth Continent had become.

Even without Bucky's intervention, the Red Line has already been torn to pieces.

However, at this moment, a group of weary powerhouses stood on the Red Earth Continent.

Uranus's absolute defense inspires despair.

No one could break through Uranus's Wailing Wall. If Karl hadn't been constantly using his abilities to restore everyone's strength, they probably would have collapsed from exhaustion long ago.

Even so, Karl was exhausted and asked helplessly, "Drag, how much longer is Vegapunk going to keep recording? If this continues, we'll probably be exhausted to death before he even breaks through the force field."

Dragon remained silent for a while, then asked Sabo to contact Vegapunk.

After a while, Sabo excitedly ran over.

"Dr. Vegapunk has completed the documentation and is working on the tools to break the Uranus field. Now, all we need to do is buy Dr. Vegapunk some time."

"Great!!!" Dragon excitedly pumped his fist.

Finally, good news has arrived. We just need to hang in there a little longer.

Inside Uranus.

"Im" silently observed all of this, and asked calmly, "How far along is the World Destruction Plan?"

"Dear Administrator, the current progress of the World Annihilation Plan is 42% to 58%. Once the progress reaches 50%..."

"Im" closed his eyes and said slowly, "Time is running out..."

Chapter 384 You Lost

"Hahaha, finally done! Phew~ Mr. Fujitora, please deliver this to Dragon and the others as soon as possible!"
