Having become a general, completed a hidden mission, and also finished a link in a chain of missions, Yi Shuihan was experiencing a series of happy events.

With joy comes sorrow. Becoming an admiral means taking on the duties of an admiral. Admirals are the navy's most formidable force, and generally, they are either stationed at headquarters or in the New World.

Akainu was originally stationed in the New World, but now that he's dead, this task has naturally fallen into the hands of Yi Shuihan.

Yi Shuihan didn't even have time to rest before setting sail again to oversee the New World.

Yi Shuihan was accompanied by 10 warships and several thousand people, including 3 lieutenant generals, 20 major generals, and many more. In short, it was a very powerful force.

With the new world base he's about to go to, there are also quite a few naval forces waiting for him to take over. It can be said that from now on he will be a true regional governor.

Tasnia, the location of the New World garrison

In an ordinary room, a group of people wearing cloaks of justice sat together amidst billowing smoke.

"Tell me your thoughts, what should we do with this newcomer?" asked the speaker, Vid, a lieutenant general who was formerly Sakazuki's second-in-command and currently in charge of all Tasnia's garrison.

Vader was extremely frustrated. He thought that with Sakazuki dead, Tasnia would be his domain from now on, but he never expected that a great god would descend from the sky before he had even been in power for a few days. He would have to keep a low profile from now on.

By directly sidelining Yi Shuihan, Wade certainly wouldn't dare to do anything. Putting aside everything else, Yi Shuihan's strength alone was something he couldn't afford to offend. Besides, everyone knew that Yi Shuihan was a favorite of the Warring States. If he offended him, he might just say something to the Warring States and end up in deep trouble.

Actually, he was just venting casually. The people in this room were all his old subordinates, trustworthy, and wouldn't betray him or anything.

"In my opinion, there's really no need for the higher-ups to send anyone. Hasn't Lord Wade been doing a good job lately?" a tall, burly man shouted.

Wade was somewhat comforted by these words, and gave the big man an appreciative look, feeling much better.

Seeing this, the others naturally began to express their opinions, all meaning the same thing: they would listen to Wade from now on.

Just as Vader was enjoying the flattery of his subordinates, about a hundred pirate ships were sailing towards Tasnia in the waters not far from Tasnia.

"Brothers, Sakazuki is finished. This time, we'll destroy the Navy's base in the New World and show them how powerful we are."

"Revenge! Sakazuki killed my brother, and I'll make the Navy pay!"

“Destroy them. Without Sakazuki, they are nothing.”

"That's right, it's time for our pirate alliance to make its voice heard. Now that we've wiped out the Marines, even the Four Emperors won't dare to underestimate us!"

The Pirate Alliance, a newly emerging force in the New World, is composed of pirate crews that failed to contend for the title of Yonko and those that were hunted down by Sakazuki. Recently, they have been making waves in the New World, aiming to become a force comparable to the Yonko, and this time they are flexing their muscles.

Of course, their ideals are grand, but reality is cruel. Despite their large numbers, they only have one top-tier fighter who barely reaches the level of an admiral. They can handle forces without admiral-level fighters, but if they encounter any of the Four Emperors, any one of them could easily defeat them.

Chapter 138, Unleashing a Bloodbath

"Look, what is that?"

"It looks like a pirate ship."

"How is that possible? Pirates coming here? Wouldn't that be walking right into a trap?"

"No! It really is a pirate ship."

"What!?"

"Go quickly and inform them that the enemy is attacking."

The two marines ran frantically toward the base, but they were a little slow.

However, they were too disorganized and didn't have time to organize their forces before the pirates stormed in.

Faced with the ferocious pirates, these unprepared marines were at a disadvantage from the start, and if nothing unexpected happens, it is possible that all the marines here will be wiped out.

"What happened? Why is it so noisy outside?" Wade frowned, never having considered the possibility of pirates attacking.

"boom"

The door was flung open, and a navy officer with the rank of lieutenant, covered in sweat, cried out in terror, "Lord Vader, there are... there are pirates! The pirates are attacking!"

"What?" Wade was shocked and hurriedly walked out of the room, only to see a scene he never dreamed of: the pirates had actually attacked the Navy, and it seemed that the pirates had the upper hand.

"Damn it, organize a resistance! Follow me!" Wade shouted, charging into the battlefield, trying to turn the tide of battle.

A group of high-ranking officers rushed out and easily crushed ordinary pirates, which boosted the morale of the Navy.

“Wade, an old friend has come to see you.”

“It’s you, Alex.”

Vader's expression turned extremely ugly. Alex, the captain of the Hercules Pirates, was just as strong as him, and they had fought many times without a clear winner.

"Are you the ringleader? How dare you openly oppose our navy?"

This is tricky, this is bad.

"No, no, no, I'm just a nobody. How could I dare to lead an attack on the naval base? The real boss is someone else." Alex said with a mocking expression.

Vader's expression changed drastically. There was someone behind him. The person Alex called his boss must be stronger than him. This was not good news.

"who is it?"

Alex made a throat-slitting gesture and looked at Wade with a smile.

"Could it be the throat-slitting assassin?"

"That's right, it's Lord Throat Slitter."

The Throat Slitter, whose real name is unknown, is known for slitting the throat of anyone he kills. His strength is unfathomable, and he is said to be a general-level powerhouse. Vader knew he was no match for him.

Wade's heart sank to the bottom; he couldn't see a glimmer of hope.

A sense of desolation emanated from Wade, who roared, "Everyone, fight to the death! Someone will avenge us!"

Knowing he was doomed, Wade was determined to kill as many as he could, and fought with extreme ferocity, trading blows for blows.

Seeing this, Alex did not engage in a direct confrontation with Vader. Instead, he tried to wear Vader down, and later joined forces with another formidable pirate to launch a siege against Vader.

"puff"

Wade was struck hard in the back, coughing up blood. His vision blurred, and he felt an overwhelming sense of sorrow.

Unlike his physical body, Wade's mind was unusually clear at this moment, and he was thinking of Yi Shuihan, the newly appointed general.

If a high-ranking admiral were in charge, these pirates wouldn't dare to be so arrogant.

I was wrong, I was wrong. I was complaining before about why a great general was parachuted in, but it turns out that without a great general in charge, I couldn't protect this place at all.

Filled with remorse, he could no longer express it. Alex's blade was about to strike him. Vader mustered his last strength, his eyes wide open, dying with his eyes wide open in disbelief!

"Zheng"

"Pirates are attacking the Navy? They're disrespecting me! Since we're here, we're not leaving."

Wade looked at the young man in front of him, first in astonishment, then with relief he closed his eyes and collapsed. He recognized Yi Shuihan, and with a sense of relief he could no longer hold on.

It was Yi Shuihan who blocked Alex's fatal blow and saved Vader.

Yi Shuihan and his group arrived a little later than the pirates. When they saw the pirates appear and attack the navy, Yi Shuihan was speechless. He gave an order to his men and rushed over to rescue Wade.

Yi Shuihan was furious. In his eyes, this was his territory, and the pirates dared to attack it, which was simply disrespectful to him.

Moreover, as pirates, it's already good enough that the Navy doesn't bother with them; they actually turned around and attacked the Navy instead. This is simply outrageous and absolutely intolerable.

A murderous glint flashed in his eyes, and Yi Shuihan unleashed his power, his aura soaring into the sky to declare his presence.

Alex, a pirate who could fight Vader, didn't even have time to react before being blasted to pieces with a single punch.

Another pirate who was besieging the area stared blankly at Yi Shuihan, and was about to run away when Yi Shuihan kicked him, sending Bai Mi flying. Bai Mi was sprawled out in a ball, his internal organs shattered.

The throat-slitter ruthlessly severed the head of a navy officer and was about to look for his next target when he saw a blurry image and then felt a sharp pain in his body.

The afterimage vanished, and the man who had his throat slit looked down and saw a hole the size of a human head in his stomach, through which he could see the other end. Overwhelmed with fear, he who could have lived for a few more seconds was instantly scared to death.

A general-level figure, though barely reaching that rank, died without ever even seeing his opponent; it was utterly inhumane.

A blur appeared on the battlefield, relentlessly reaping the lives of the pirates. No pirate could withstand a single blow from him. The marines only saw a blur sweep past before all the pirates in front of him fell to the ground, dead.

"Yes, Yan...Long, General Yanlong has arrived."

"General Yanlong killed the throat-slitter."

Someone shouted those words, and the previously despairing marines cheered instantly, while the pirates turned ashen-faced, especially after hearing that the throat-slitter was dead, and began to flee.

There was no escape. Yi Shuihan's speed was too terrifying. These pirates were mercilessly harvested like wheat.

After killing the last pirate, the people Yi Shuihan brought from the Marine Headquarters had just arrived. When they saw Yi Shuihan standing on top of the pile of corpses with a murderous look on his face, they were all stunned.

Nearly 2000 people died at Yi Shuihan's hands. At this moment, he looked as terrifying as a demon from hell. Just one glance at him made people feel like they were on a battlefield in hell. Even the elites of the headquarters felt uncomfortable all over because of his murderous aura.

"Long live Lord Yanlong! Long live Lord Yanlong!"

"Long live Lord Yanlong! Long live Lord Yanlong!"

Unlike the people from the Navy Headquarters, the locals cheered, their gazes towards Yi Shuihan filled with reverence and fervor.

Yi Shuihan's displayed strength had completely won them over; his unparalleled and powerful figure was deeply imprinted in their minds, indelible.

Chapter 139, A Bloody Month

"What are you all standing there for? Go help!" Yi Shuihan said irritably to his subordinates who looked dazed.

With these words, the atmosphere changed. The previous shock was gone, and everyone seemed to wake up from their daze after hearing Yi Shuihan's words, and began to help the wounded sailors.

Seeing his subordinates bustling about, Yi Shuihan finally nodded with satisfaction. If they were useless in battle, that was one thing, but if they couldn't even handle this small matter, then they really had no reason to exist.

If the navy personnel brought by Yi Shuihan knew what he was thinking, they would definitely cry foul, saying it wasn't that they didn't want to fight, it was just that he killed too many enemies by himself, and the battle was already over when they arrived.

"Our General Yanlong is truly terrifying!" Apart from Yi Shuihan, Succubus was the only one who didn't go to help, and she was also the only one who arrived before the battle was over.

Although she arrived, she simply watched without offering any help, and remained completely indifferent to the deaths of these naval personnel.

Seeing Yi Shuihan unleash his power and go on a killing spree, even the succubus was startled. His powerful aura, ghostly speed, and murderous intent, like that of a demon, left even her somewhat bewildered. This was the first time she had ever witnessed Yi Shuihan go on such a killing spree.

Compared to the Yi Shuihan of normal times, the Yi Shuihan who goes on a killing spree is a completely different person. There is no similarity between them at all!

"You seem quite relaxed." With his murderous aura dissipated, Yi Shuihan returned to his harmless demeanor. However, anyone who had witnessed his violent side would never truly believe that he was genuinely harmless.

"What? Are you angry with me because I didn't help?" The succubus looked at Yi Shuihan with surprise, a slight smile playing on her lips. "If I had actually intervened, wouldn't I have stolen your thunder?"

Yi Shuihan didn't respond to the succubus's words because what the succubus said was actually true. If the succubus were to make a move, and the two of them were to do it, firstly, it would definitely not be as shocking as if he were to make a move alone, and secondly, a woman always has an advantage. In that case, the succubus's status in the hearts of these navy men would probably be far higher than his own.

Yi Shuihan then acted like a leader on an inspection tour, looking around and offering condolences to wounded soldiers, saying some insincere and sentimental words to gain some fame.

To be honest, when Yi Shuihan said with a sorrowful expression that it was all his fault and that he was late, quite a few people were fooled. The prestige that would normally take a long time to build was established in just a few words from him, saving Yi Shuihan a lot of time.

Judging from this injury, Yi Shuihan should even be grateful to those pirates, for they arrived at just the right time.

I wonder what those pirates would think if they knew from beyond the grave that they not only lost their lives to Yi Shuihan, but also their reputations.

After walking around, almost everyone in the navy remembered Yi Shuihan, and Yi Shuihan also learned about the current basic situation of the navy.

While not a devastating loss, it was still a significant blow. This wave of pirates wiped out at least half of Tasnia's forces, with more than a third killed or wounded. It will likely take some time for them to recover.

After working for most of the day, the situation finally stabilized. Looking at the naval branch after the battle, Yi Shuihan's eyes blazed with renewed fervor.

"Now that we're here, we should do something. Pirates have come knocking on our door; it's not my style to not fight back."

After spending three days in Tasnia and handling the post-war matters, Yi Shuihan went straight for the succubus, who shamelessly followed him, one man and one sword.

At a rate of almost one pirate hideout per day, for a full month, Yi Shuihan was killing pirates relentlessly, and the number of pirates who died at his hands exceeded five figures, their blood almost staining the sea red.

With this massacre, Admiral Yanlong's reputation spread throughout the New World. Especially later on, whenever they heard that Yanlong was coming, these pirates would flee in terror, fearing that they would be caught by this great killing god.

Originally, there were some pirates resisting, and they even gathered together to try to kill Yi Shuihan. However, after Yi Shuihan unleashed his domineering aura, killing 99% of those who tried to kill him, no one dared to provoke him anymore.

Even those belonging to the Four Emperors retreated as soon as they heard news of Yi Shuihan.

The appearance of Yanlong brought a chill to the pirates of the New World. A month after he was killed, pirate crews that were once everywhere have become very rare to see.

It's not that fewer pirates have actually been killed. After all, there are far more than tens of thousands of pirates in the New World. Even if Yi Shuihan were to kill them all over the place over several years, he still wouldn't be able to wipe them out. It's just that these pirates are afraid of being killed and have gone into hiding to avoid trouble.

A month later, when Yi Shuihan returned to Tasnia, everyone who saw him was filled with awe and deep admiration.

Now, all that's being discussed in Tasmania is Yi Shui Han; Sakazuki has long been forgotten by them.

Compared to Sakazuki, Yi Shuihan killed more pirates in just one month than Sakazuki did in several years, so there's no comparison at all.

The reason for such a large gap is simply that Yi Shuihan is much faster than Sakazuki. Once targeted, Yi Shuihan has virtually no chance of escape. In contrast, if it were Sakazuki at sea, as long as the other ship is faster, escape would be possible, though not easy.

Furthermore, Sakazuki has to consider the Four Emperors and is afraid of being trapped if he goes deep into enemy territory. Yi Shuihan, on the other hand, has no such worries. Even if the Four Emperors surround and kill him, he can leave whenever he wants. Moreover, apart from the Four Emperors themselves, if he really angers their subordinates, he can kill them on the spot even if he is surrounded and attacked.

If they spare no expense, the Four Emperors themselves will only perish.

The reason why the Four Emperors ordered that Yi Shuihan not be provoked is because they recognized Yi Shuihan's strength. Kaido and Shanks had both witnessed it and naturally would not easily provoke him. As for Whitebeard, Yi Shuihan would basically not go to his territory, since they were considered relatively good among pirates and would not generally cause trouble.

As for the last of the Four Emperors, Big Mom, she initially did not intend to back down. It was only after witnessing Yi Shuihan's strength that she followed the other Four Emperors. Naturally, this was partly due to the fact that Yi Shuihan did not kill their core members.
