The pirates sat and forgot, and they really believed the nine truths and one lie.

There are only two days left before Ace's public execution. As the interwar period gradually wears off, there is a rare period of peace at sea.

All major forces chose to lay low and wait for the war to come. The visible battlefield was very calm, but in the invisible intelligence war, there was a record of fighting between the major forces.

Whitebeard attaches great importance to intelligence work. He always values ​​his family, but he is not stupid. He will not take his allies and adopted sons into an ambush set up by the navy for pirates.

These days, meetings are held on the Moby Dick whenever there is time. Whitebeard allows the young people around him to express their opinions and speak out their ideas in front of the boss. If the suggestions are useful, they will definitely be adopted.

Mirajane once proposed a suggestion at the meeting whether it was possible to temporarily form an invasion team to rescue Ace from prison without engaging in large-scale combat.

The witch's method was not opposed at the first time. Instead, it was the outsiders on the ship who raised objections, saying that Mirajane's plan was not feasible.

Shamrock is temporarily stationed on the Moby Dick. As a Knight of God, he provides intelligence support to the pirates. Although he does not participate in the war, sending him here can prove the sincerity of the World Government.

"According to our naval insiders, there are at least three admirals on duty every night. The admirals don't sit in their offices, but patrol all over Marineford with patrol teams. You don't have a chance to cheat."

Shamrock directly rejected Mirajane's method. The navy wanted to eat Whitebeard and the Golden Lion Pirates alive and would not tolerate any low-level mistakes.

Even if Whitebeard could convince Garp to turn a blind eye and open a hole in Marineford for the pirates to enter, it would most likely be a trap from which there would be no return.

Garp has lost the honorary title of naval hero. He is now just an ordinary vice admiral, and his influence within the navy is declining day by day.

If he really wanted to rebel against the navy, there would definitely not be many people supporting him internally. Garp is now in a dilemma, and his situation is not much better than Whitebeard's.

Shamrock has a face exactly like Red Hair's, which makes many people on the ship often hallucinate and think that Shanks is standing with the Whitebeard Pirates.

After a brief contact, Marco realized very well that Shamrock and Shanks were two completely opposite people. Although they shared the same blood, they grew up in different environments, which led to their different personalities.

Shamrock fits the stereotype of a powerful Celestial Dragon very well. He doesn't even look at the weak and only shows a little basic courtesy to powerful pirates like Whitebeard and Golden Lion.

Shanks is not as arrogant as his brother. He has been hanging out with pirates for many years and has a more easy-going personality. As long as they don't provoke him, the little pirates will drink with him.

After Shamrock boarded the Moby Dick, he refused to accept any food offered by the Whitebeard Pirates and even refused to drink. He took the initiative to distance himself from the pirates, and his words always revealed arrogance and an inexplicable sense of superiority.

However, the intelligence support he provided made the pirates temporarily tolerate Shamrock's attitude. The World Government had already obtained the navy's defense map.

The important defense nodes of the navy are highlighted on the map. The pirates never imagined that the Warring States would even take out loans to build fortifications for this war.

If the pirates landed on the shore, they would be caught in a trench war with the navy. Outside the core area of ​​the navy, all the places that could be dug had already been dug, and the trenches were connected together, making it very convenient for the navy to mobilize troops.

A large number of bunkers were built among the fortifications to occupy advantageous shooting views. If the pirates rushed in without caring, they would only fall in large numbers.

Many bunkers have been reinforced with steel bars and cement, and ordinary guns and artillery cannot blow them open. It requires pirates at the cadre level to use their own abilities to break into the bunkers.

Ordinary pirates cannot break the turtle shell when facing a bunker with delayed defense, and getting close will only lead to death.

In the core area of ​​the navy, most of the buildings have been reinforced, becoming a barrier for the navy to block large pirate forces.

If the pirates do not have intelligence support and engage in a head-on war with the navy, the trench warfare will consume a large amount of the pirates' manpower. If they cannot advance into the core area, more than half of the pirate group will be killed or injured.

As for the core area of ​​Marineford, it is the battle area among the masters. The fight for Ace will take place here. Facing six navy admirals directly, the pressure is not small.

If the war is unfavorable, given Zhan Guo's character, he will definitely join the war without any moral ethics. The Navy Marshal has not taken action for many years, and his strength is at least equivalent to that of a general.

There are still a group of old guys alive in the navy. They will all participate in this war. They all want to die gloriously on the battlefield and don’t want to die of old age on the sickbed.

Shamrock mentioned the former Marshal Sora and the former Admiral Zephyr. The two old men had declined in strength due to age, but they used the last of their lives to shine and were able to hold back the two cadres of the pirate group.

The main goal of the Navy Admiral is to surround and kill the two great pirates of the old era. Whitebeard and Golden Lion must be mentally prepared to encounter a one-on-many situation on the battlefield, and they may lose their lives if they are not careful.

The World Government also learned that the Black Cult had signed a secret agreement with the Navy, which stipulated that the Black Cult would not interfere in wars between humans and that they were only interested in the Blackbeard Pirates.

"According to reliable intelligence, Teach and his newly formed pirate group are hiding in the Devil's Triangle. All the agents we sent there have never returned."

When Shamrock mentioned Teach, he couldn't help but show an expression of disgust. The threat of Blackbeard cannot be underestimated, and the ambition of Rocks' son cannot be ignored.

Rocks was the first pirate in recent decades to break into the Flower Palace and meet Lord Im. Unfortunately, he eventually died from betrayal and was less fortunate than Roger.

"How about we take a few people to the Devil's Triangle and eliminate Blackbeard in advance?"

"I will kill this traitor with my own hands."

"Count me in"

When it comes to fighting Blackbeard, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates are more enthusiastic than each other, but they are eventually suppressed because Daddy doesn't agree to temporarily split up the forces.

The strength of the newly formed Blackbeard Pirates is unknown. If too few people go, they may be surrounded, and a large force will have to be sent to rescue them.

Judging from Teach's style of doing things, he will definitely be the last to arrive at the Battle of Marineford. The pirates and the navy will both suffer losses, and he will bring demons to take advantage of the situation.

As for the whereabouts of the Joker Pirates, they have not been found yet. The World Government speculates that Buggy is not very interested in the Battle of Marineford, he is only interested in Impel Down.

Defending the underwater prison is something the World Government should worry about. Barrett must not fall into Buggy's hands if things get out of control.

The Celestial Dragons will order Shiryu of the Rain to kill Barrett, leaving only Buggy with a corpse. The Five Elders do not want the Joker to know more about the secret of the Final Island.

The Whitebeard Pirates and the Golden Lion Pirates have no choice but to fight the navy head-on. There is no other way to save Ace.
