Chapter 969 Big Trouble
Borsalino felt that he was in deep trouble.
A laser pierced through the body of a phantom beast, but had no effect at all.
Accompanied by notes of various colors, the injuries on the phantom beast recovered quickly.
Although they were temporarily endowed with souls by Liszt, they were still not real lives. Everything about them was made up of music, so they would naturally not be affected by any negative effects.
They themselves are "immortal" as long as Liszt is alive and the music continues to play.
Borsalino nimbly dodged one phantom beast after another. He knew that this was not going to work, so he wanted to get rid of Lister, the culprit, first.
"Eight-foot beautiful magatama!"
Faced with this move, Harolant did not react at all. He knew how powerful Lister was, and this did not pose any threat to Lister.
This time, the high-temperature laser rays with extreme penetrating power stabbed towards Lister like long spears.
The Emerald Basantur hovering above Lister stood still. Following countless explosions, the surface of the Basantur suffered some damage, but it was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Such special means, creating so many mythical creatures, naturally took a huge toll on Lister.
Especially since Lister’s body itself is not of monster level.
His physical talent can only be ranked in the upper middle level among the many members of the Black Emperor Pirates.
However, in Liszt's heart, music has a healing effect.
During the performance, a special healing power continued to restore Liszt's spirit and physical strength.
Of course, the recovery speed is not as fast as the consumption speed.
However, it also made Lister's consumption minimal and allowed him to fight for a long time.
In terms of talent, Lister can only be considered decent, and his attainments in physical skills are not very high.
Even with the support of Teach's gravity field, his future limit might not even be able to reach that of a vice admiral.
However, with the power of the Music Fruit, Lister's upper limit will increase dozens of times to a level no less than top-level combat power.
Sitting on a chair created by his ability and playing the piano is Liszt's special way of fighting.
If we cannot break Lister's defense in the first place, we will not give Lister a chance to recover.
It can be said that Liszt is invincible.
This was because, if they failed to defeat Lister, they would be trapped in an endless quagmire of battle, and would eventually be dragged to death.
Of course, the limitations of his abilities and talents also make it impossible for Lister to become one of the world's top powerhouses.
It seems that Borsalino can't do anything to Liszt, but similarly, Liszt can't do anything to Borsalino.
Borsalino's speed can easily avoid the attacks of various phantom beasts.
It just looks a little awkward, like dancing on the edge of a knife.
Faced with the terrifying ability displayed by Lister.
Even the crane was caught off guard.
"The Devil's Pianist" Liszt, who comes from all over the world, is an ordinary user of music fruit ability.
Before joining the Black Emperor Pirates, he had never displayed such terrifying abilities.
Therefore, it did not receive the attention of the intelligence forces of the Navy Headquarters.
But I didn't expect that this guy was hiding so deeply.
Anyone can feel the threat from the abilities displayed.
He single-handedly created many high-end combat forces.
Moreover, it can also launch powerful and unstoppable sonic boom attacks.
He can definitely be ranked among the top few in the Black Emperor Pirates.
Because he has demonstrated the powerful force of a one-man army.
"Lister's bounty is too low and needs to be raised."
He said slowly, then suddenly realized and shook his head.
"After this battle, the bounties of all the main officers of the Black Emperor Pirates should increase."
Seeing the power currently displayed by the Black Emperor Pirates, even though only two cadres took action, Crane realized that they might have underestimated the overall strength of the Black Emperor Pirates.
Plus the Black Emperor Pirates' confident attitude.
If they rely solely on Borsalino and Garp, as well as the marines on Garp's ship, they will most likely fail.
The other generals in the conference room understood the meaning of Chief of Staff He's words and their faces darkened.
"Do we need to send more support?"
"Forget it. It will take at least five or six days for the reinforcements sent from our headquarters to reach the Drum Kingdom. By then, the battle will have been over."
"If even Garp can't defeat the Black Emperor Pirates, then sending reinforcements will be useless. We can only look for opportunities next time."
He didn't want to waste his fighting power in vain.
With this time, we can also destroy several pirate groups.
Targeting the Black Emperor Pirates would not benefit the Marine Headquarters in any way, and if it fails, it might even cause terrible losses.
For today's navy, the correct thing to do is to let the Black Emperor Pirates go to the New World to fight those top monsters.
Young Marshall D. Teach, such an ambitious monster, could not remain calm after entering the new world.
The expansion of territory is always accompanied by war and fighting.
It is normal to have conflicts with other forces.
If you want to become the emperor of the sea, unless you have recognized prestige and power, you can only defeat one of them and dethrone him.
This is what the Navy wants to see.
War necessarily means sacrifice.
The battle between the Tyrannosaurus Pirates and the Silver Axe Pirates resulted in heavy losses for both sides.
Even though they later defeated the Silver Axe Pirates, the previous losses caused the Tyrant Pirates to be surpassed by the Demon King Pirates.
The demise of the Silver Axe Pirates is even more in line with the Navy's wishes.
For the Navy and the World Government, the more chaotic the New World is, the better.
In the war between the Demon King Pirates and the Gofeng Pirates, although the Demon King Pirates won, both sides suffered heavy losses.
You know, this is the Great Pirate Age.
The number of pirates on the sea is growing every year.
This is a trend that the Navy cannot suppress no matter how hard it tries.
When the navy is unable to intervene in the New World, allowing pirates to fight each other is also a way to weaken the power of pirates and suppress their numbers.
Otherwise, the number of pirates will only increase.
They still remember vividly the scene in which most of the pirates in the New World mobilized hundreds of thousands of pirate troops during the Second Bloody War.
After the war, the navy suffered heavy losses and the army's casualties exceeded one million.
The Great Pirate Age caused the number of pirates lost in the New World to quickly recover and continue to grow.
If such a war breaks out again.
If all the pirates in the New World unite, it is very likely that they can form a pirate army of 700,000, 800,000, or even a million.
This number of troops is larger than the entire navy's strength.
It’s kind of scary to think about it.
Therefore, the new world must never be allowed to calm down.
Otherwise, the military forces of the sea emperor entrenched in various parts of the new world will only become larger and larger.
Of course, the navy is also afraid that the pirates released into the New World will grow rapidly and face fierce competition in the New World.
This is very contradictory.
These monsters are the real threat to the navy and the government.
