Chapter 847: The Flying Pirates are at a disadvantage in the World Government's counterattack
On the other hand, Chief of Staff Tsuru and other high-ranking naval officers looked very unhappy.
They were in the middle of a battle and had no time to receive requests for help from other large bases.
After so much time has passed, what we know is naturally not good news.
Four of the eight large bases of the Navy in the first half of the Grand Route were invaded by powerful monster legions.
Now, the members of the monster army have evacuated, but the bases have been severely damaged, reduced to ruins, and the members have suffered heavy losses.
Especially, the G15 Fortress.
This naval branch targeted by the "Mosquito Girl" can be said to be completely wiped out. Under the attack of crazy blood mosquitoes, less than one-tenth of the troops survived.
The vice admiral guarding the G15 fortress was killed in the battle.
Xirik's face was not looking good either, because his brother Chigral was in the G15 fortress.
In terms of strength, Chiglar is inferior to himself and Kyle. In addition, he has no special devil fruit ability, so it is difficult for him to fight against the "Mosquito Girl".
Having experienced bloody battles, he knows how terrifying the "Mosquito Girl" is. Her lethality cannot be measured by mere combat power.
Without any special means, it is very likely that you will die under the endless blood mosquitoes without even the ability to resist.
Once the blood mosquitoes, which can reproduce rapidly, develop, they are no less than a horrific natural disaster.
However, after learning that Chiglar was now in charge of the G15 Fortress, Xirik also breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially after hearing that most of the remaining navy survived under Chiglar's command and protection.
Knowing that the obstacles to Chiglar's further progress have been removed.
It won't be long before he becomes the base commander of the G15 branch and is promoted to vice admiral.
Because the navy is now short of high-end combat power, first there was a bloody battle, and now there is another war, there will definitely be a lot of losses.
We can only try our best to promote young generals like Chiglar.
Especially those who are direct descendants of the navy and graduated from elite training camps like Chiglar.
Compared to a lieutenant general of headquarters who often fights on the front lines and participates in wars, being the head of a local base is definitely safer.
After all, we only need to maintain the stability of one sea area and stabilize the rear.
But there is no such thing as absolute safety.
If you are not careful, you might be suddenly attacked by some big pirate.
Or being attacked by pirates like today.
Today's navy, even at the naval headquarters, cannot be said to be absolutely safe.
Strength is the most important thing.
Only in this way can we survive in possible wars that may break out in the future.
If there is a chance, Xirik wants to recommend Chiglar to eat a devil fruit. Even if it is an ordinary carnivorous devil fruit, it can greatly enhance combat power.
Especially for a strong man like him who specializes in physical skills.
As long as the devil fruit is awakened, you will be able to fight even against top-level forces.
Although Chiglar's qualifications are not as good as his and Kyle's, he has the potential to become an elite lieutenant general in the navy.
But this is all for later.
Xirik looked at the battlefield. To be honest, he felt nothing in his heart. He actually had no interest in the new monsters in the Monster Legion.
In any case, it has nothing to do with his current purpose.
After this battle, he believed that he had completely gained the trust of core senior officials such as Admiral Sengoku and Chief of Staff Tsuru, and had a very high reputation within the navy.
He can smoothly retreat behind the scenes and focus on the Criminal Investigation Bureau and the internal cleansing of the Navy.
This laid the foundation for Sakaski to become the marshal in the future.
The war for the G1 fortress is still going on and attracting much attention.
Even the "Natural Disaster" Garrosger of the Beasts Pirates, Katakuri of the Big Mom Pirates, and the "Black Winged Demon" Ulracion of the Monster Legion arrived at the battlefield to provide support.
It still cannot change the situation of being suppressed by the world government.
Twenty top fighters.
Even if one of the Five Elder Stars was eaten by Typhon, the "King of Monsters", and Maz Saint was killed by Bondi World, the "World Destroyer".
But it still has obvious advantages.
cp0, army, navy, God's Guard candidates, and some high-end combat forces sent by the Celestial Dragon families to protect family members.
Even though the magnetic bomb allowed Asura Rhinoceros Beetle and others to seize the opportunity and kill many people, many high-end combat forces were also severely injured.
Although their numbers are small, they are still capable of fighting against the many fleet captains and officers of the Flying Pirates.
Especially with the extra top fighters from the World Government wreaking havoc on the battlefield, it took the combined efforts of several powerful members of the Flying Pirates to contain them in a short period of time.
After nearly four hours of fierce fighting, both sides lost a lot of manpower.
The pirates have an advantage established in the early stages of the war.
The World Government relies entirely on its strong hard power.
As long as the top fighters of the pirates can be held back one-on-one, the rest of the top fighters can deal with the cadres of the Flying Pirates first.
As the arch-enemy of the World Government, the Flying Pirates must be weakened first.
This is also to protect our own high-end combat power and reduce losses.
The world government is still clear about how to maximize the benefits of war.
The pirates will withdraw at any time as long as the situation gets bad enough.
Definitely.
By shifting the target to high-end combat power, the top combat forces on the pirate side will not feel too much pressure and will think they still have the strength to fight.
As long as "Golden Lion" Shiki does not give the order to retreat, this war will most likely continue.
This is the overall strategy set in advance by the world government.
If you want to completely destroy the Hiku Pirates, this strategy cannot be achieved overnight.
It's like boiling frogs in warm water. By the time they realize something is wrong, it's too late.
Even if the pirates want to evacuate, the World Government will not grant their wish so easily.
Especially for the Flying Pirates, it would be very difficult to take their cadres away under their sniping.
Destroying the Hiku Pirates is only the best-case scenario.
The World Government did not expect that the "King of Monsters" Typhon would intervene. The addition of several top fighters caused the pirates' combat power to skyrocket.
No one expected the magnetic storm bomb to be so destructive.
The pirates will have support from three top fighters in the future.
This caused their plan to destroy the Flying Pirates by relying on the numerical advantage of their top combat forces to fail.
Although there are advantages, they are not absolute.
Therefore, they tacitly shifted their target to weakening the Flying Pirates.
The biggest threat to the Flying Pirates is their huge number of high-end combat forces.
Shiqi and his companions did not realize that the situation was turning against them.
