Chapter 1786 Napoleon vs. Weibull (2)

The battle was extremely fierce. Napoleon almost used all his strength to barely withstand Weibull's attack.

If he hadn't suddenly burst out with the power of the sea god at the end, the outcome of this battle would probably be completely different, and he might not have been able to defeat the opponent at all.

In fact, even Napoleon himself had no idea that Weebull would be so powerful before he fought against him.

After all, at that time, Weeble's bounty was only more than 200 million Baileys, and he was not very famous in the world.

If Edward Weeble had not always used the name "Whitebeard II" and Whitebeard himself had not pursued the matter, Weeble's reputation might not have been so loud.

However, what is the real strength?

No one in the world, including Napoleon, was very clear about it.

And it was naturally impossible for Charlotte to tell Napoleon about these things.

Therefore, in Napoleon's eyes at the time, although Edward Webber had some fame, he did not show much strength. Such an opponent was simply the best candidate to defeat first after his debut.

As long as he could defeat Weber, Napoleon believed that he would quickly become famous.

However, reality gave Napoleon a heavy blow.

As soon as they started fighting, he immediately felt the huge gap between himself and his opponent.

The gap was so huge that it was despairing. He was no match for Weeble at all.

After all, Napoleon was only fourteen years old at that time, and his strength could only reach the level of lieutenant general at most.

And Weible's strength is beyond imagination. Not only has he surpassed the lieutenant general, he is even considered the top among the quasi-generals!

Compared with Weebull, the fledgling Napoleon was completely at a disadvantage in terms of both strength and dominance, and was completely crushed by Weebull.

It can be said that if Napoleon had not been seriously injured and fell into the sea, accidentally activating the sea god blood in his body, he would have either died at the hands of Weeble or been captured alive by Weeble.

This experience left a very deep impression on Napoleon's memory.

Since then, Napoleon has deeply realized a truth: never underestimate your opponent.

Later, Napoleon successfully defeated Katakuri and became famous.

However, deep down in his heart, he had always longed to compete with Weibull again.

Unfortunately, since their last fight, Weeble and Bakin have disappeared from the face of the earth, with no news of them at all.

In the blink of an eye, three or four years have passed.

It was not until recently that Napoleon accidentally heard that Weeble and Bakin had reappeared on the sea, and they had become the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

However, Napoleon was recovering from his injuries at the time and was busy expanding his territory along the first route, so he had no time to care about Weeble's affairs.

Unexpectedly, just one month later, Weeble and that guy named Bakin would take the initiative to declare war on him.

This was completely beyond Napoleon's expectations.

In a building quite similar to the Rockefeller Castle, Napoleon sat high up in the head seat, his eyes fixed on Whitebeard II in front of him, looking at the declaration of war he had brought.

"Captain, how should we respond to their declaration of war?"

Murat stood aside and asked solemnly.

Ever since Napoleon was defeated in the battle with Yamato and even lost his weapons, the atmosphere of the entire Lion Pirates has changed dramatically.

The pirate group, which was originally full of energy and laughter, now seemed to be suppressed by an invisible force and became extremely serious.

The entire pirate group was filled with a solemn atmosphere, as if shrouded in a heavy haze.

However, in this suffocating atmosphere, there is still a glimmer of hope.

Although the Beasts Pirates detained Napoleon's weapons, they did not make things too difficult for the other members of the Lion Pirates.

Not only that, the Beasts Pirates even took the initiative to let Murat and others go, which was undoubtedly an unexpected good news.

When Napoleon just woke up and heard the news, he felt relieved and secretly relieved.

After all, what he was most worried about was that his companions would be implicated.

Now, they were able to leave safely, which made Napoleon feel very relieved.

"Of course I accept the challenge!"

Napoleon answered without hesitation, his voice firm and powerful, revealing a resolute attitude.

"The enemy has already reached our doorstep, how can I retreat?"

Murat seemed to have anticipated Napoleon's decision.

He did not show too much surprise, but just nodded slightly to show his approval of Napoleon.

After all, as a captain, he has always been brave and never retreats.

"Then I will respond to him immediately!"

Murat bowed respectfully, then slowly backed away until he was out of the hall.

When the door of the hall slowly closed and Napoleon was left alone, his face became gloomy.

More than a month had passed since the thrilling battle with Yamato, but Napoleon's resentment had not diminished in the slightest.

Losing to Yamato was a heavy blow to Napoleon. He never thought he would suffer such a devastating defeat.

However, Napoleon also knew clearly that his strength was indeed not as good as Yamato's.

In the fierce battle with Yamato, he was completely at a disadvantage and was ruthlessly crushed by Yamato.

Although he was filled with reluctance, Napoleon also understood that facing such a powerful opponent, no matter how reluctant he was, it would be of no avail.

What made Napoleon feel even more humiliated was that if Yamato had not shown mercy, he would probably have died long ago.

If Uncle Darrow had not rescued him in time, he would probably have needed the family to expend even more energy to save him.

Napoleon sighed helplessly. His Poseidon Trident is still in the hands of the Beasts Pirates.

If he wants to take back this weapon that symbolizes his glory, he has to defeat Yamato personally, otherwise there is no way he can get it back.

This was undoubtedly another heavy blow to Napoleon, making him feel unprecedented humiliation.

During this month, Napoleon did not run around like he did in the past. He stayed quietly in his room, constantly reflecting on his failure.

Moreover, Napoleon focused all his energy on improving his own strength.

He constantly challenged himself and broke through his limits. Even the solid mountains were shocked by his strength, and eight of them were directly smashed by him.

After such arduous training, Napoleon also clearly felt that his strength was gradually increasing.
