Chapter 302 Baptism of Fire
Amid the roar of artillery fire, the pirates revealed bloodthirsty smiles.
The breath of battle made them excited, and there was a bloodthirsty light in their eyes, as if they had already smelled the blood of battle.
"Fire!"
A tall pirate captain brandished the sword in his hand and roared wildly.
The cannons on hundreds of pirate ships fired at the same time, and in an instant a huge roar resounded throughout the entire sea, echoing in the air like thunder.
The moment the artillery fire started, the entire sky seemed to be dyed red, and thick smoke filled the air, carrying a pungent smell of gunpowder.
Amid the gunfire, the pirates shouted excitedly; their voices were drowned out by the roar, but their enthusiasm and excitement remained undiminished.
There was a crazy light in their eyes, and the shells in their hands were loaded into the gun barrels one after another and fired without interruption.
"boom--"
The shells whizzed across the sky, with destructive force, heading straight for the G5 branch's defense line.
Each shell seemed like a messenger of death, drawing black arcs in the air and then slamming into the target.
On the pirate ship, the gunners were busy like sophisticated machines.
Their movements were swift and skillful, and each step was completed smoothly.
Sweat streamed down their cheeks, but no one stopped working.
Every shot was accompanied by violent vibrations of the barrel and strong impacts on the body, but they did not care and just kept repeating the process of loading, aiming and firing.
"Keep firing! Don't give them a chance to breathe!"
The pirate waved his weapon and shouted loudly, his voice sounding particularly loud amid the gunfire.
On another pirate ship, a tall gunner held the cannonballs tightly in his hand, looking straight ahead.
He stuffed the shell into the barrel and pulled the firing rod suddenly. The huge impact force caused his body to lean back slightly, but he quickly steadied himself and stared straight ahead.
"boom--"
There was another loud bang, and the shell flew out, heading straight for the G5 branch.
The deck of the pirate ship trembled slightly under the continuous gunfire, and the hull shook with every shot.
The pirates seemed particularly excited in such a vibration; their laughter and shouts mixed with the roar, forming a strange harmony.
"It's so satisfying! Let those navy officers see how powerful we are!"
A pirate shouted excitedly, almost crushing the cannonball in his hand.
However, the fierce artillery fire did not make the navy retreat.
On the G5 branch's defense line, Kuzan calmly commanded his troops with a sharp gaze.
"Keep the formation and concentrate your firepower to counterattack!"
His voice was steady and powerful, instilling endless confidence in the sailors.
Tian Yueshi was also commanding at the front line, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.
"All turrets, aim at the pirate ship ahead and counterattack!"
The G5 branch's artillery began to respond to the pirates' offensive, with dense artillery fire interweaving in the air, forming a barrier of flames.
The shells collided in the air, explosions were heard continuously, fragments were scattered, and flames shot into the sky.
The fanaticism of the pirates and the tenacity of the navy formed a fierce confrontation in this sea area.
The roar of artillery fire lasted for a long time on the sea, and every explosion seemed to announce the cruelty and determination of the battle.
The entire battlefield was shrouded in thick smoke and flames, and the intensity of the battle continued to escalate.
The pirates were busy loading ammunition, their movements were skillful and quick.
Every gunner stared straight ahead, their eyes filled with determination and madness.
Shells flew out one after another, aiming directly at the G5 branch's defense line.
On the deck of the pirate ship, other pirates were responsible for defending against the shells fired by the navy.
They used huge shields and special net devices to try to intercept the oncoming shells.
Although every interception was accompanied by a huge impact, they did not show any fear, but instead it further stimulated their fighting spirit.
"Hahaha, you think you can stop us with just this little firepower?"
A pirate laughed and swung his shield hard, knocking down a cannonball.
However, not all shells could be intercepted. Some shells hit the pirate ship accurately, explosions sounded one after another, fragments flew, and flames instantly engulfed part of the deck.
The pirates roared in the explosion, there was no fear in their eyes, only the desire to fight and hatred for the enemy.
"Keep firing! Don't give them a chance to breathe!"
On the pirate ship, the top leaders of the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates were also nervously directing the battle.
They stood at the bow, calmly observing the situation on the battlefield.
The figures of Kaido and Big Mom are like two mountains, bringing endless courage and strength to their subordinates.
Kaido looked ahead coldly, the huge mace in his hand shaking slightly.
"These navy men are really tenacious."
He whispered, a hint of disdain in his eyes.
The aunt laughed wildly, and her laughter echoed on the battlefield.
"Crush them all!"
There was a frenzy and authority in her voice.
The bombardment of artillery fire became more and more intense, and the entire battlefield was shrouded in smoke and flames.
On the sea, the fleets of both sides continued to approach each other under the cover of artillery fire, and the intensity of the battle gradually escalated.
In the G5 branch, Kuzan and Toki commanded the navy to put up a tenacious resistance.
The sailors did not flinch under the fierce artillery fire, and their eyes were also full of determination and fearlessness.
"Keep your formation and don't let them break through!"
Kuzan ordered loudly, his voice sounding exceptionally calm and firm on the battlefield.
Tian Yueshi waved the command knife in his hand and quickly mobilized the troops for defense and counterattack.
"Concentrate all your firepower at the front and hit them hard!"
The artillery fire from both sides intertwined in the air to form a sea of fire, and the intensity of the battle had reached a fever pitch.
Both the pirates and the navy showed tremendous courage and determination in this life-and-death battle.
Amid the roar of artillery fire, the buildings of the G5 branch and the pirate ships were like fragile pieces of paper, being ruthlessly torn apart by the shells.
Each explosion was accompanied by a huge shock wave that shook the ground and the sea.
The building was crumbling under the fierce bombardment, the walls began to crack and bricks and stones flew everywhere.
A tall tower finally collapsed under the bombardment of several consecutive artillery shells.
Rubble and debris flew everywhere, and smoke and dust filled the air, as if a dark haze covered the entire battlefield.
The sailors ran among the ruins, trying their best to find cover, while fighting back desperately with the weapons in their hands.
At sea, pirate ships also suffered devastating blows.
Shells fell like raindrops, and the huge explosion blew the hull into pieces.
The planks and canvas were torn apart, the flames spread rapidly, and the entire deck was in flames.
The bow of the pirate ship was blown to pieces by a direct hit from the shell. The huge crack quickly expanded and sea water rushed into the hull madly. The crew screamed in horror and tried desperately to plug the gap, but to no avail.
The ship began to tilt and eventually sank slowly into the sea, carrying with it countless debris and human despair.
The mast was hit by artillery fire, and the broken mast fell down with a loud bang, hitting the deck and causing a mess.
The pirates on the ship were staggering due to the violent shaking, and some were thrown directly into the sea.
The surviving pirates hurriedly picked up their weapons and tried to fight back, but their shells seemed so insignificant that they could not stop the navy's offensive.
