One Piece: General Xuanming, Defeat the New World

"Hahahaha, now you've seen how powerful your uncle Quinn is!"

"Which bastard wanted to launch a sneak attack? He has been buzzing like a fly all the way!"

"Someone, prepare Quinn bomb number two!"

Along with Quinn's sharp and piercing shouts, the artillery unit brought in Quinn Bomb No. 2, and then adjusted the angle of the shells. Countless can-shaped shells were fired again, falling in the center of the Kozuki troops.

Having witnessed the horror of this canister-shaped weapon, the warriors surrounding the point where the shells landed were already in despair, waiting for the tingling sensation on their skin, but after waiting for a long time they did not feel any discomfort.

It was as if this time it was just an ordinary jar, and not a horrible and bloody weapon like a messenger from hell.

Although they didn't know what was going on for the time being, they thought it was better to live a miserable life than to die, so these warriors who escaped death breathed a sigh of relief and then quickly ran away.

Quinn Bullet No. 1, a purple-red poisonous mist, can quickly corrode the skin, muscles and even bones, but will not cause damage to the internal organs. It is a typical means of torture with a quick effect.

The Quinn Bomb No. 2 is a light red mist that is almost invisible. Inside it are countless micron-sized insect eggs, which take a week to gradually hatch.

Once successfully hatched, they become capable of reproduction on the third day. They reproduce sexually under suitable conditions, and can directly reproduce asexually under harsh conditions.

The most terrifying thing is that their DNA molecular chains are extremely fragile and can easily mutate during the process of sexual reproduction, causing the effects of the poison to change every minute, making it extremely difficult to predict the consequences.

But only one set of chromosomes is extremely stable, and the gene fragments on this chromosome represent "efficient transmission" and "tenacious vitality."

Only the first generation of the mother and the mother's asexual offspring are controllable, and the insect eggs spread by the Quinn Bomb No. 2 can only be said to have a variety of effects.

"Hahaha, withdraw the troops and set up camp. If the Kozuki army does not provoke us, we should not take the initiative to attack. Let's use up a month to see the effect of my Quinn Bomb No. 2."

Seeing that the Quinn Missile No. 2 he had launched had fallen into the crowd, Quinn laughed and ordered his troops to retreat.

Today's battle can't even be called a battle. The Kozuki army rushed up in a daze, and then were directly repelled by Quinn Bombs No. 1 and No. 2. There was almost no hand-to-hand combat.

That's why Quinn was extremely satisfied with today's battle situation. All the frustration he had suffered from the repeated sneak attacks in the past few days was swept away.

……

Quinn was happy, but Kozuki Nohara began to have a headache. As the Kozuki army barely stabilized its formation and set up a camp after retreating for dozens of miles, Kozuki Nohara suddenly collapsed in his chair.

"This inexplicable poison gas has such a horrible effect. What can we do?"

Kotsuki Nohara closed his eyes and frowned slightly, as the scene of the battle flashed through his mind again and again.

Especially the terrifying weapon called "Quinn Bullet No. 1" and the purple poisonous fog flashed through Kotsuki Nohara's mind again and again, and the wailing and roaring that still lingered in his ears made him feel deeply terrified.

Before this, let alone having seen it, he had never even thought that there was such a horrific weapon of war in the world. It was simply created to torture people. It was extremely painful and extremely bloody.

"vomit……"

Thinking of this, Kotsuki Nohara began to dry heave again, his stomach churning.

It is no wonder that even a seasoned warrior like Kozuki Nohara finds it difficult to remain calm in the face of such a scene.

It's nothing more than experience, it's the empathy that arises from seeing one's fellow human beings suffer. Even the most cold-blooded people will feel this way, it's just a matter of more or less.

"This is really troublesome. How can we control this kind of weapon?"

After retching, Guangye Nohara forced himself to drink a few glasses of water to suppress the discomfort in his abdomen, then sat back in his chair and began to think.

"Attack the camp? No, it will be detected by the Observation Haki."

"What about breaking it down into smaller pieces? No, that won't work either."

"But if we retreat, once the Fujiyama rebels use this weapon to attack the city, the consequences will be disastrous. We must intercept the enemy here."

"..."

Ideas flashed through Kotsuki Nohara's mind, but were quickly rejected. Kotsuki Nohara grabbed his hair with both hands and racked his brains to think.

"Nohara-kun, the weapons used by the Fujiyama rebels today are too cruel. Even in war, we cannot use such cruel weapons. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

On the other side, Kin'emon, who had already comforted the wounded, pushed the door open, still cursing.

You know, even if this poisonous fog can kill the soldiers who come into contact with it directly, Kotsuki Nohara and Kitsune Kin'emon would not be so resentful. This is clearly deliberate torture.

But it must be said that this was a very successful psychological warfare. No one wanted to experience torture worse than death. Even though the number of people affected by the poison gas bombs today was less than 3,000, the main force was not damaged.

But this cruel consequence made every samurai feel deeply afraid, and now they would shudder at the mention of the Fujiyama rebels. Morale suddenly dropped to the freezing point, and it would be difficult to fight again before this problem was solved.

"Kinemon, send someone to tell father everything that happened here, so that father can make preparations early. This Fujiyama is wrong, and I can't stop him."

Kotsuki Nohara did not curse along with Kin'emon. Instead, she remained silent for a long time before she spoke.

"Father, please send strong men and experienced doctors to accompany us. Otherwise, even if we defeat this army, the Fujiyama region may send new troops at any time."

"The core problem lies in these two weapons. If the problem of weapons is not solved, we will always be at a disadvantage."

Kotsuki Nohara said helplessly. He also knew that this battle was a rare opportunity for him, as it could help him exercise his military capabilities.

At the same time, it can also help you establish prestige among the army and the people, paving the way for taking over the position of daimyo in the future.

However, at this moment, if the information was concealed, it was very likely that something more serious would happen. Kotsuki Nohara could still distinguish between the serious and the minor.

"Kinemon, accompany me to visit the wounded. They are fighting for the stability of the Flower Capital. We cannot let them suffer in vain."

"no!"

Before Kotsuki Nohara could stand up, Ashura Douji beside him waved his hand and spoke out in objection.

"Nohara-kun, we cannot guarantee whether this poison is contagious, and we also do not know the function of the second type of shell fired by the enemy."

"Your safety is the core of the stability of the army. What you need to do now is to have as little contact with the wounded as possible. It is better to leave the visit to us."
