Chapter 560 Fire
"Fire!!!"
Following the commander's order, the World Government fleet suddenly became excited.
A uniform mechanical sound echoed on the sea, the ship's gun ports slowly opened, and the black muzzles were all aimed at the lonely ship sailing in the distance.
The sea breeze carried the smell of artillery fire, making the soldiers' blood boil.
"We can finally open fire! I've been wanting to try out the power of these new artillery pieces for a long time!"
A soldier rubbed his hands together and excitedly adjusted the aiming device.
"Haha, you dare to block us with just a broken ship? You are really courting death!"
Another soldier laughed as he loaded his ammunition, his eyes gleaming with bloodthirsty excitement.
The commander stood on the platform of the flagship, staring grimly at the ships approaching from a distance.
He raised his hand and said in a cold and hard voice:
"volley!"
boom--!
The sound of artillery fire was deafening, and hundreds of shells, dragging hot flames, broke through the air, like a meteor shower pouring towards the target.
The surface of the sea seemed to be shaking, and countless seagulls flapped their wings and flew away amid the loud noise.
But the ship continued to sail leisurely, as if it didn't take the artillery fire seriously at all.
Boom!
The first round of shells exploded around the ship, creating waves tens of meters high, but the target was unharmed.
The soldiers in the fleet stopped and looked at the incredible scene in the distance.
"What happened? Did you miss?"
A soldier said blankly.
"Impossible! This is locked aiming!"
Another soldier looked confused.
The commander frowned and said coldly:
"Keep firing, don't stop!"
The second round of artillery fire came again like raindrops, and this time huge waves were raised again around the target, but it still failed to hit the ship at all.
What's even more strange is that the speed of the ship did not decrease at all, but became even faster.
At this moment, Loki, who was standing on the distant deck, raised his head and glanced coldly at the densely packed fleet.
The corner of his mouth curled up slightly with a sneer, and he said softly:
"What a bunch of guys who can't wait to die."
Then, he said calmly to his comrade beside him:
"Let them have fun for a while. When they are almost exhausted, we will take action."
The air on the deck suddenly tensed, and the people standing next to Jin An tightened their weapons, with a burning desire to fight in their eyes.
There was continuous sound of artillery fire in the distance, but for the people on this ship, it was just a prelude to the war.
The roar of artillery fire resounded through the sea and sky, and thick smoke spread over the sea and enveloped the sky above the battlefield.
"Rumble..."
The bombardment of the World Government fleet came like a rainstorm, the shells cutting through the air and rushing towards us with a howl of destruction.
However, when these shells were still several meters away from Jinan and his ships, they suddenly exploded in the air as if torn apart by an invisible force. Flames and metal fragments surged in the air, forming layer after layer of dazzling smoke.
Jinan stood at the bow, his figure as steady as a mountain.
There were faint spatial ripples flickering around him, which were the marks left by the ability of the Men Men Fruit.
His eyes were cold, piercing through the smoke and looking directly at the World Government's fleet in the distance.
Behind him, the crew members looked solemn, but their eyes showed trust and determination.
They knew that as long as Jin An was there, any threat would be resolved.
“It’s really endless.”
Jin An whispered to himself, his tone somewhat cold.
Then he raised his hand and waved it slightly.
The ripples spread out again, like an invisible barrier spreading around the ship, blocking all attacks that tried to approach.
"keep going!"
His voice was not loud, but it revealed unquestionable majesty.
The ships cut through the waves and passed through the area covered by artillery fire, and every advance seemed to declare their determination to the enemy.
Amid the smoke, the rough laughter of Whitebeard could be heard faintly.
"Gulala! You are a bunch of idiots. You think you can stop us with just these shells?"
"Don't underestimate them."
Jin An glanced sideways, looking at the enemy fleet vaguely visible behind the smoke.
He knew that this was just a tentative attack and the real challenge was yet to come.
However, they had already made full preparations for this war.
The smoke of gunpowder is the prelude to the battlefield, and the rhythm of conflict has just begun.
The ship continued to move forward, accompanied by the sound of waves and the hull breaking through the waves, which was a firm oath of the coming victory.
Jinan's attention was gradually attracted to the distant place lit up by flames of war. There was the enemy's main force and the core of this war.
There was a subtle fighting spirit in his eyes, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He will leave no room for these enemies who never stop fighting him.
This sea will witness their destruction.
In the distance, in the vast starry sky, the fleet of the World Government is like a huge net. The ships are densely packed in the field of vision, and the flickering lights are like cold stars in the darkness.
It was a suffocating torrent of steel, as if it would crush everything in the next moment.
However, Jin An, who was standing in the command cabin of the battleship, just narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze was as calm as a bottomless well, without any ripples.
He slowly reached out and tightened the edge of his glove, his knuckles turning slightly white, as if silently declaring his calmness and determination.
His companions seemed more excited than him.
Someone clenched his fist, and the joints made a crisp sound, which was the warm-up before the battle;
Someone was leaning back in his chair, crossing his legs, with an unconcealable smile on his face and an eager look in his eyes.
Some people even fiddled with their weapons, making them make noises, as if teasing the enemy in front of them.
The atmosphere in the entire cabin was like a fully drawn bow, with every string stretched taut, yet full of tension ready to burst forth.
"This kind of scene is tailor-made for us."
One of his companions grinned, with a hint of frivolity in his voice.
His hands were on the console, his fingertips tapping the buttons with a clear rhythm, as if he was playing a battle movement that was about to begin.
"Yes."
Another companion took over the conversation, licked his chapped lips, and his eyes shone with a blazing light.
"If we can defeat them, our names will spread all over the world! Who will dare to look down on us then?"
Jin An never said a word, he just looked into the distance quietly.
Suddenly, he raised his hand gently and pointed to the center of the fleet. The flagship there was like a sleeping beast, emitting a cold light.
His movement was not big, but it made the entire cabin quiet instantly.
"The action begins."
His calm voice rang out in the silence, like a blade cutting through the darkness.
At this moment, all eyes were on him, no one questioned, no one backed down.
The real battle has just begun.
