#318 - Chapter 318 Additional Support Arrives
The sea was turbulent, with waves growing larger and larger, as if foreshadowing an impending storm.
"Rumble!!!"
A thunderclap exploded, and the whole world seemed to shake.
Charlotte Linlin felt a sense of unease in her heart, and her brow furrowed slightly, but because she was fully focused on dealing with Zephyr's attack, she couldn't spare any attention to react otherwise.
Her eyes revealed a hint of ruthlessness, and the greatsword in her hand swung even more rapidly, each strike carrying devastating power.
However, Zephyr remained unyielding, his fists flying like the wind, confronting her attacks.
The atmosphere on the battlefield became increasingly tense, and the thunder in the sky made many pirates feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
Suddenly, Katakuri's voice, like thunder, echoed throughout the battlefield:
"Get away from the ships quickly!!!"
A red light flashed in his eyes, obviously he had foreseen the danger of the future through his Observation Haki.
Katakuri's voice carried an unquestionable authority and urgency, and the pirates were immediately shocked, stopping their movements and focusing their gazes on him.
"What's going on?"
"Since it's Brother Katakuri's cry, I choose to obey unconditionally!"
"That's right! Brother Katakuri's warnings have never been wrong!"
"......"
Immediately afterwards, the sound of 'plunk' as they jumped into the water was endless, and the pirates all chose to listen to their hearts.
The pirates knew that Katakuri's judgment had never been wrong, and even the pirates who were still operating the cannons did not hesitate to abandon the cannons in front of them and quickly fled into the distance.
The figures on the ship surged like a tide, and the entire battlefield instantly became chaotic.
The waves crashed against the hull, and the wind howled past, as if foreshadowing the impending disaster.
"Boom!!!"
A bolt of lightning struck directly from the sky, as if the wrath of the gods had descended upon the world.
The light of the lightning illuminated the entire sea surface, and the pirate ship was instantly struck, turning into a sea of fire.
The raging flames instantly engulfed the ship, and the scorching flames spread across the ship's hull, with the wooden planks making a "crackling" sound, as if the end of the world had arrived.
The heatwave of the flames rushed towards them, and the pirates' faces showed terrified expressions as they desperately fled to safety.
The air was filled with a scorched smell, as if the whole world had been swallowed by flames.
However, this was only the beginning of the disaster.
The explosives on the ship were ignited by the high temperature, and even more violent explosions followed one after another.
The huge explosions were deafening, and the shockwaves swept around like giant waves. The pirate ship disintegrated in the explosions, and debris scattered everywhere, and the sea surface suddenly became a mess.
Zephyr and Charlotte Linlin were both stunned by the sudden explosions.
A trace of panic flashed in Charlotte Linlin's eyes, but she forcibly suppressed it.
Facing Zephyr, she couldn't afford the slightest carelessness, even if her pirate ship had been reduced to nothing.
"Zephyr!"
Charlotte Linlin roared, her voice filled with endless anger and unwillingness, and her offensive became even more violent, each strike carrying a determination to fight to the death.
Zephyr's gaze was firm, and the power in his fists did not weaken at all.
The worse the enemy's situation, the happier he was.
Moreover, from the blowing gale, he knew that another reinforcement had now arrived.
The situation on the battlefield became even more unpredictable, the waves continued to roar, and the storm intensified.
The pirates struggled to escape in the chaos, while the Marines stubbornly resisted under the leadership of their officers.
"Whoosh..."
The wind was howling, and even the body could feel the increasing power of the wind.
Huge waves were stirred up on the sea, and the waves crashed against the ship's sides, making deafening roars.
The pirates struggled to stabilize themselves in the storm, their faces full of fear and incomprehension.
Strangely, this gale seemed to only affect them, while the Marines seemed to be calm.
"Whoosh..."
The roar of the gale became more and more violent, blowing the pirates so hard that they could barely open their eyes.
The ships swayed in the huge waves, and the pirates grabbed the railings tightly, trying not to be thrown into the sea.
And those pirates who had already fallen into the water could only resign themselves to fate.
In the sky, dark clouds rolled, and lightning flashed continuously in the clouds.
"Rumble!!!"
With a loud noise, lightning struck down, illuminating the entire sea.
The electric light flashed in front of the pirates, and the dazzling light made them close their eyes.
"Ah!!"
A scream pierced the sky, a pirate was struck by lightning, his body instantly turned into charcoal, and he fell painfully on the deck.
When the other pirates saw this, their faces turned pale, and they looked around in horror.
"Why does this lightning only strike us!!!"
A pirate shouted desperately, his voice filled with endless fear and incomprehension.
They had never seen such a strange scene, as if the entire sky was targeting them.
"Could it be that the weather is choosing to stand on the side of the Marines?"
Another pirate roared angrily, waving the weapon in his hand, trying to fight against this invisible enemy.
However, no matter how they struggled, lightning continued to strike frequently, as if carrying some kind of irresistible will.
The screams of the pirates rose and fell one after another, and the chaotic scene became even more desperate.
Every bolt of lightning seemed to be announcing their fate, the electric light illuminated their terrified faces, and the shadow of death enveloped everyone's hearts.
In this storm, the pirates' hearts were filled with panic and helplessness.
Their eyes revealed deep despair, and their bodies trembled constantly under the lightning strikes.
Even those pirates who were usually extremely ferocious seemed so fragile at this moment, as if they would be swallowed by this ruthless storm at any time.
And in their screams, the Marines seemed to be protected by some kind of force, steadily advancing.
Because of the weather interference, the pirate officers turned back to rescue their men, and the Marines also got a moment's respite.
Peacock stood at the bow of the ship, watching all this with a cold gaze, and couldn't help but flash a great figure in her heart.
"The god of the storm is also on our side!"
A Marine soldier shouted excitedly, his voice filled with undisguised morale and excitement.
Their eyes sparkled with the light of victory, as if they had already seen the dawn.
In this life-and-death struggle, the pirates' screams gradually weakened, and the lightning strikes never stopped.
Every flash of lightning was announcing the pirates' doomsday, and in the storm, the pirates' fate was already doomed.
At this moment, the entire battlefield seemed to be dominated by lightning and storms, and the pirates gradually collapsed under the relentless attacks.
The lightning in the sky was like the wrath of the gods, crushing all resistance and turning their hope into nothing.
In this storm, the balance of victory seemed to have begun to tilt, and the Marines' counterattack was unstoppable.
Peacock showed a smile at the corner of her mouth and murmured:
"The other support has arrived."
