Chapter 237: Lieutenant General

Whitebeard has been roaming the Grand Line for so long, and it has to be said that he has a very sharp vision.

At a glance, I could tell that the camp in front of me was led by the third ship in the middle.

Under Whitebeard's ruthless ruling, the group quickly formed a line. Whitebeard shouted in a gruff voice: "Men, start now, follow my artillery fire to fight against the navy! The weak ones will stand in the back as backup, and the strong ones will stand in the front as the main force!"

Under Whitebeard's smooth arrangement, all the pirates lined up neatly, and Whitebeard's battle strategy was formed in an instant. In the subsequent mutual attack, Whitebeard's pirate group attacked swiftly and unexpectedly, and the navy's team's strength was gradually reduced.

"Lieutenant General, their attacks have become more orderly, and our artillery shells can't hold out for much longer." A navy officer explained the situation to the vice admiral. The vice admiral's face darkened, and he looked at the orderly troops in front of him with a worried look: "Everyone, fight back relentlessly. No one is allowed to escape! If you run out of ammunition, send a message to headquarters for more!"

The vice admiral of the third warship spoke in a much tougher tone.

It's not that he is really out of danger, but this time the attack has been ordered. If Whitebeard is not killed, then he will be the one to die. On the contrary, if Whitebeard dies, then he will receive a large reward. The reward is very considerable, and he has even been promised to be the next admiral of the navy!

This is quite tempting! Who in the navy wouldn't want to be promoted to a high-ranking position?

So for him, no matter what, this is a battle that must be won!

Encouraged by the Vice Admiral, the soldiers' morale was greatly boosted, and the two sides were entangled in an inseparable battle!

at the same time--

"What, we need more? Isn't it just to capture a Whitebeard? How much ammunition is needed?" The War Buddha was a little hysterical. He didn't expect that a mere Whitebeard would consume so many troops.

After all, he had dispatched five warships! Even these five warships, under normal circumstances, would be enough to strike down a wanted criminal with a bounty of over 80 million!

What's more, there was spare ammunition, and the War Buddha was well aware of Whitebeard's cunning, so he ordered people to prepare ammunition for another warship!

Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, they actually used Den Den Mushi to contact the headquarters and asked for combat supplies!

The War Buddha even said that he was somewhat dissatisfied with their behavior!

"This..." The navy who came to report was a little scared, but he had to bite the bullet and express his opinion: "Vice Admiral Gewei's approach is to use artillery bombardment to deal with Whitebeard, and Whitebeard has also responded!"

"What an idiot! So stupid!" The War Buddha knocked on the table angrily. Perhaps he was too angry, and the table under his palm turned into powder in an instant!

"Marshal, calm down..." The marine was a bit timid, perhaps afraid of being implicated, and evaded the issue by stating a fact. "Also, Vice Admiral Gewei did this because everyone was saying that if he succeeded, the marshal would give him the title of Admiral! So, no one at the scene dared to refute his actions..."

The navy's words became quieter as time went on, but they still reached the ears of the War Buddha.

"This bastard..."

The War Buddha's body trembled, and the pressure on his body was fully revealed, which scared the little sailor in front of him so much that his whole body trembled!

"Marshal, could it be that what they spread was all wrong?" the young sailor asked tentatively.

"Bullshit!" The War Buddha cursed. "I only told him that if he could successfully kill Whitebeard this time, I would only give him the power to compete for the position of general. But he deliberately twisted the facts! After spending so many troops, he actually asked the headquarters for supplies! It's unreasonable!"

The words of the War Buddha were filled with natural pressure, which suppressed the young navy in front of him and made him speechless.

After a slight pause, the War Buddha asked again: "Where has the situation expanded to now?"

The young marine replied tremblingly, "Right now, our team is in a stalemate with Whitebeard's team, so Vice Admiral Ge wants us to send ammunition reinforcements!"

The War Buddha snorted coldly, his words revealing a solemn authority: "No need to resupply. We sent so many troops, and it only ended in a draw. There is no value in using a lieutenant general who can only use artillery."

The War Buddha was extremely angry and said nothing more after a few words.

The young navy lowered his head and trembled: "Okay, I'll go and inform them right away!"

The little navy walked out with his thighs trembling. Although the punishment that Gewei received this time was due to his instigation, the little navy did not think so. Instead, he felt that the war Buddha's behavior was really inhumane and that human nature was cold and indifferent.

On the other side, naval warships.

"What? Headquarters won't give us more firepower?" Lieutenant General Gewei was a little bit unbelievable. He originally thought that his request would definitely be granted, but he didn't expect that the War Buddha would be so ruthless.

"That old coffin, the War Buddha, promised me the title of general, but now he refuses to send me reinforcements. He must be afraid that my becoming a general will threaten his position!"

Even at this point, General Gewei still felt that it was all the War Buddha's fault, and even thought that the War Buddha was jealous of him!

He was speechless for a moment, and the pirates under his command were all surprised when they heard the order from the War Buddha.

"What? There's no military reinforcement!"

"He lied about being the next general, and now he can't even get reinforcements."

"That's right, if we have someone like this as our leader, it might cost us our lives!"

The voices from below refuting General Gewei became louder and louder, and the latter suddenly placed the morale-boosting flag in his hand heavily on the ground!

"Who allowed you to refute me?" He just said this clearly, and everyone present was stunned.

"Why don't you think about it yourself? Think about it. In terms of military rank, is there anything among you that can compare with me? Since there is no one, just shut up!" Lieutenant General Gewei seemed to have been hit in the sore spot, and his tone was even more brutal!

"The battle isn't over yet. Besides, even if we fail, it won't be our fault. It's because the Whitebeard Pirates are too strong! Those cowards who use this to blame their own strength can get out of here as soon as possible!"

Although Lieutenant General Gewei was arrogant, he still had the ability to inspire people. With just a few words, he had many people speaking to him and pointing out that what General Gewei said was the truth!

As a result, the morale of the navy was completely lifted! The soldiers used their limited artillery fire to attack Whitebeard's ship accurately and skillfully!

Chapter 238: Battle between Two Armies

"Dad, that enemy vice admiral must have used some trick to boost the morale of all the navy!"

When Whitebeard heard the report from his men, his brows furrowed tightly.

Although fighting a war is all about strength, Whitebeard is clearly no match for five warships with sufficient firepower.

"What should I do?" Whitebeard murmured softly. He had been roaming the Grand Line for so long, but this was the first time he felt a difficult situation. This time, the navy seemed determined to take over his ship.

"Don't be afraid. If he comes head-on, we will fight him head-on." Whitebeard hesitated for a long time and finally came to this conclusion.

Whitebeard shook his head and simply stopped thinking about it. If he was really defeated, it would be his fate. However, even if he fell into the hands of the navy, he would absolutely swear to protect his little ones to the death.

Whitebeard looked at the people fighting below with a little affection. They were all his relatives who had worked hard for him, and he would never allow the navy to hurt them in the slightest!

Thinking of this, Whitebeard maximized the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit in his hand.

"Guys, attack with all your might. I'll cover for you!"

Hearing Whitebeard's roar, all the crew members below were stunned.

"Dad..."

After all, Whitebeard has always been a behind-the-scenes character. Now he not only has to take the initiative to attack, but also has to provide cover for them. This shows Whitebeard's intentions for them.

But looking at it from another angle, it is enough to show the urgency of the situation.

"We will not hold back and will take care of the navy!"

"Me too. Dad has been so kind to me. Even if I die, I will protect him!"

The roars from below reached Whitebeard's ears, and tears immediately welled up in his eyes. The morale of the crowd also rose to the extreme again at this moment!

On the other side of the navy ship.

"Lieutenant General, there's really nothing we can do. They're too powerful!"

Lieutenant General Gewei's face was as black as a coal ball. If he couldn't win this time, he was afraid that he would be beaten to death by that old coffin, Zhan Fo, when he returned.

It’s even uncertain whether you can go back alive!

Thinking of this, Gewei's body swelled rapidly, as if he had made a great determination. His body was like a huge hydrogen balloon, growing rapidly.

"This... Lieutenant General Gewei, what's wrong with you?"

"How did it suddenly become like this?"

"Is there no hope? Even the Lieutenant General has been driven insane by the fighting."

The sailors below were shouting one after another. Vice Admiral Gewei looked uneasy, staring at the sailor who had just said that he was crazy, and a strange smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Vice Admiral Gewei stretched out his huge hand and tightly grasped the neck of the sailor. The sailor's face turned as pale as paper in an instant.

With just a click, the young sailor's neck was twisted alive by the lieutenant generals!

Lieutenant General Gewei's expression darkened, and even a bloodthirsty smile appeared on his lips!

"Dead...dead..." Several sailors looked solemn. They could hardly imagine that Vice Admiral Gewei would suddenly attack them!

A cruel smile appeared on Gewei's lips, and he made a strange laugh.

"I'm helping you guys. For you, I'm unleashing the power of my devil fruit to its maximum! But..." He suddenly let out a creepy laugh, "But, unleashing the power of a fruit to its maximum has its pros and cons."

"The benefit is that it can help you quickly fight against Whitebeard and his group. Although you guys are not very strong, you should still have at least some reasoning ability."

"But you should know that Devil Fruits are products of the sea. They exert such great power to help you kill. It's inevitable that they'll accidentally kill a few people because they're so powerful."

There was a sense of mystery in Lieutenant General Ge's words.

He completely blamed the devil fruit for his intentional revenge. Although the people below were confused, they were completely convinced by the words of Lieutenant General Ge.

"So that's how it is. This is understandable."

"Indeed, there is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to kill our forces at this moment."

The people below actually expressed their sympathy. Ge Wei thought they were a bunch of idiots, but he still said with a smile, "Indeed, but I'm very pleased that you trust me. So now, everyone, charge forward with all your might. I'll cover for you."

Everyone felt extremely relieved to hear Lieutenant General Gray's words.

At the same time, their fighting spirit was aroused and they rushed forward bravely. Under the swift attack of the navy warships, everyone worked together to fight back.

Whitebeard's forces were weakened inch by inch under their relentless pursuit.

"You really don't know what you can do." Whitebeard was really irritated. His eyes narrowed into slits, and the pressure on his body quickly burst out. The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit became incomparable, and it quickly stepped on everyone!

"What should we do now?"

"Yeah, Dad, the navy seems to be particularly tricky this time."

After hearing the report from his men, Whitebeard roared, jumped forward, and tapped the water with his feet.

Everyone stared at Whitebeard's agile figure in surprise!

How amazing! It's common knowledge that Devil Fruit users are afraid of the ocean, but Whitebeard can actually soar above the surface! It's truly impressive!

With Whitebeard's graceful figure, everyone's eyes followed his movements.

"Guys, stay behind me and support me. Don't attack without my permission!"

Whitebeard shouted loudly, and the pirates behind him quickly followed his actions, carefully protecting Whitebeard's back.

"Oh? Using this trick is really stupid!"

Lieutenant General Gewei narrowed his eyes, and a strange arc appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Men."

He shouted loudly, and the people under him stood up quickly as if they were injected with chicken blood.

"exist!"

"Now, everyone, attack the weakest people on Whitebeard's back!"

"Yes!"

There was a rustling sound. On the surface, there were still many navy soldiers on the warship, but in fact, all of them had quickly walked behind the Whitebeard Pirates. The last people who surrounded them were quickly killed by the navy in a silent manner!

"So," Lieutenant General Gewei said with a sarcastic smile on his face. He turned to Whitebeard and laughed heartily, "Whitebeard, you still don't repent. You want to fight against such a powerful army like mine?"

Whitebeard was naturally disdainful: "Humph, Gewei, you are just a small fry, yet you actually dream of using all these troops to defeat us! What a foolish dream!"

"Hah!" With a long shout, the power of Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit quickly spread forward.

Chapter 239 Appears! Inspirational Fruit!

"With your meager abilities, you still dare to underestimate yourselves. How shameless!"

Lieutenant General Gewei shouted loudly, deliberately trying to delay Whitebeard's time, but unfortunately Whitebeard's attention was completely focused on the battle in front of him, and his eyes moved quickly following Lieutenant General Gewei's movements.

"Oh, you've fallen into the trap." Lieutenant General Gewei smiled strangely.

Whitebeard reacted: "What did you say?" Then, when he turned around, he saw corpses lying on the ship behind him. The deck of Whitebeard's ship was covered with blood. It was a mess.

"You..." Whitebeard's eyes quickly turned red, like the anger of a wild beast, "I will kill you!"

Whitebeard moved swiftly and leaped to the side of the Lieutenant General, and the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was instantly exerted to its maximum.

"Why? Are you feeling extremely regretful now? Whitebeard, you're a pirate of some repute in this sea, yet you can't even see such a simple thing." He paused slightly, "It's no wonder. With your intelligence, it's no surprise that you can't see the cause and process of this incident."

The lieutenant general acted as if he was the greatest of all.

Whitebeard was no longer interested in arguing with him, and his anger burst out in an instant, like a monster about to be bloodthirsty. With every step he took, the sea surface below shattered a piece of water, causing an uproar. The originally slightly surging sea water gathered together in an instant, forming a huge water column!
