Pirate, I am the demon fox that brings disaster to the world!

East China Sea, waters near Roge Town, below.

"Om - hum -"

The electronic meter was running non-stop, and its light ticking sounds were particularly clear under the quiet sea.

The naval warship that was concentrating on cruising on the sea apparently did not notice that there was a ferocious monster lurking in the dark, waiting to launch a fatal attack at any time.

"After the Golden Lion's attack on the Navy Headquarters last time, it seems the Navy has learned their lesson this time~

Most of the warships in hand were deployed to the surrounding seas to monitor the sky and the sea 360 degrees around the clock to prevent possible attacks from happening at any time...

If I am not mistaken, this should be the order issued by Zhan Guo."

Observing the situation of the navy through the searchlight extending to the sea surface, Yakumo Shiro muttered to himself thoughtfully.

"The Red Hair Pirates, the nearly half-crippled Golden Lion Shiki, are facing Garp, Borsalino and a group of vice admirals. Tsk tsk ~ I'm afraid they may not be able to gain the upper hand. I may have to help them at the critical moment!"

Considering the difference in strength between the two sides, a new idea suddenly came to Yakumo Shiro's mind -

Even though Shanks hasn't reached the level of the Four Emperors in the original work, he should be more than capable of stopping Borsalino. And since the Red Hair Pirates can be called the Iron Wall Pirates, they can at least delay Vice Admirals such as Spider.

The key to the matter is still the battle between Golden Lion and Garp. Yakumo Shiro doesn't think that Shiki can hold out for long under Garp, who is almost at his peak. But if he wants to achieve his goal and make this drama exciting enough to maximize the "end" of a legendary pirate, then the battle between these two cannot end easily...

"Let's give it a try. Maybe we can achieve a similar effect?"

Thinking about this, Yakumo Shiro was just about to start conducting a simple experiment as he had in mind, but suddenly he heard an unexpected question.

"Can I ask a question? Master~"

Dressed in a custom-made maid outfit in black and white, her loli figure, which had not been seen for a long time, showed her cute attraction. Although she showed her lively side in front of her sister, she was still a little nervous facing Yakumo Bai, so she asked hesitantly, with a hint of uneasiness and anxiety in her words.

“Can someone really…can someone throw an island down like a stone?

This is simply not something that humans can do, right? "

After all, it's an island! It's so big! (Sugar gestured in her mind), and what about me? My small body can be pulled into his arms and kneaded at will...

"Haha~ Of course, don't underestimate humans so easily, Sugar.

You know, even those who claim to be the creators can be killed by mere humans!"

Seeing the little Lolita's nervous and frightened look, Yakumo Bai felt a little amused for a moment, so he said something shocking. At the same time, while Sato was slightly surprised, he hugged her in his arms. After all, the sweet and soft pillow was delivered to his door, so how could he not accept it?

"But don't worry, the few 'pebbles' thrown by the Golden Lion cannot hit us. Compared to us, some people are the ones who are truly anxious!"

Meanwhile, in Rogue Town overseas.

At this time, the Red Force was anchored steadily on the sea, and several naval warships were roaming around a few miles away, hovering at a distance between offense and surveillance.

"Tsk! Hasn't the Navy responded yet?"

Gabu, who was tall and strong and exuded a beast-like aura, asked anxiously.

"No, Gabu, the Navy... has already responded..."

On the side, Beckman looked at Rogge Town with deep eyes and said slowly,

"However, as expected, they really rejected our request to land on the island. Even though we have told them everything that happened in Windmill Village, the Navy obviously does not want to cause any trouble as they are ready to deal with the Golden Lion, and they will not believe the pirates' one-sided words.

Of course, even if we can prove that Yakumo Shiro did appear in Windmill Village, the Navy has no reason to lend a helping hand to the pirates..."

Beckman's tone was unusually heavy. This was related to the safety of Uta, who had grown up step by step under everyone's eyes, and everyone on the ship took it very seriously.

According to his idea, if Garp was the only one in the opposing navy, he might be willing to let him off the hook, after all, this matter might involve his hometown. However, the decision maker of this battle is Marineford after all. It is impossible for Garp to risk the failure of the operation and reach a temporary peaceful coexistence agreement with Shanks alone, or abandon his duties and return to his hometown to check on the safety of the villagers.

"What's more, in the eyes of the Navy, Shanks was once a crew member of the Pirate King and is an uncontrollable factor. The Red Hair Pirates are also unstable and dangerous. Even if an agreement is reached, they may turn against the Navy at any time.

The only wise choice for them is to isolate us far away from the waters of Rogue Town, and carry out strict surveillance or even expel us!

This way, it won’t interfere with this battle…”

Beckman's words were like a huge hammer pressing down on everyone's heart. Fighting and killing had never been a problem for them, but the current situation was that they could only passively confront the navy for a long time, and Uta would develop into a more "dangerous" situation as time went by.

“Wait for the opportunity!”

Just when the atmosphere had become somewhat tense, Shanks, who was standing at the bow of the ship in a black captain's coat and staring at Rogue Town, suddenly said,

"When Shiki the Golden Lion shows up and a battle breaks out with the navy, we will immediately land on the island! Find Yakumo Shiro! Take back Uta!"

His face was dimly lit by the shadow cast by the canvas above his head. Shanks frowned, and a rare deep anger emerged.

After seeing the cunning of Yakumo Shiro, Shanks has realized that what the other party said, "The outcome will be decided in Rogue Town", could also be a lie, but surprisingly, it is a trap!

But no matter whether it is true or false, I lost Uta with my own hands, so I must find her back with my own hands!

This is the responsibility of a "father", and it is also the captain's responsibility to his crew!

"My friends and family... I won't allow anyone to touch them!"

--------

Coincidentally, a different kind of tacit understanding was formed in the East China Sea at this time - everyone was waiting, the navy, Shanks, Yakumo Shiro, big-mom... everyone was waiting for the conflict to reach its climax and break out completely.

The waiting process is undoubtedly torturous, and being fully alert is no less than a torture.

As the saying goes, the first effort is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted. When the mind is constantly in a tense state, the pressure it brings is indeed heavy, so heavy that even the elite of the navy will become a little absent-minded and dazed.

And this kind of trance is exactly what a beast that has been lurking for a long time is expecting!

Ambush and waiting are hunting techniques that the navy understands, and every shrewd and ferocious beast is even better at it.

Yes, the proud golden lion will of course accept the challenge, but not foolishly walking into the hunter's trap, but like a real lion - real hunting!
