Chapter 178 Bloody Announcement, Nation-Destroying Beast! (two in one)

The speed of the Dawn warship is very fast, and the excellent hull design and power system allow the warship to ride the wind and waves with ease in the waters of the New World, like walking on the ground.

Although there is no talented navigator like Nami on Ji Guoyuanyi's ship, the navy's accumulated sailing experience over the past few hundred years is enough to make them more effective in training navigators.

And the crew members who are at the helm and in charge of navigation on the Ji Guoyuan ship are also dispatched by Karp, and they are all "old fritters" who have followed Karp for more than ten or even twenty years.

The journey that would have taken several months to complete, Ji Guoyuan and the others took less than two months.

In March of the year 1500, Ji Guoyuan and their troops were finally about to end their months-long voyage.

In March in Dressrosa, the weather has begun to warm up.

In the middle of the night, the sky was pitch black, the stars and moon in the sky were blocked by thick clouds and fog, and the thick fog enveloped the port of Dressrosa.

At such a night, the port of Dressrosa was silent. People who had been tired all day were sleeping soundly. The lights in the port were all turned off. Only the lighthouse on the far coast was still shining toward the sea.

A huge ship slowly broke through layers of thick fog, and under the cover of night, approached the port of Dressrosa silently.

This is a huge black ship with a height of more than ten meters. It is a standard medieval giant sailing ship. At the bow is a golden sculpture of a girl holding a huge lantern.

The flames in the giant lanterns shone brightly, exuding dim light, illuminating the sea area in front of the giant ship.

The sails on the ship have been put away, and as the huge ship slowly enters the port, the speed of the ship is much slower.

A middle-aged man in a pirate hat stood on top of the golden statue of a girl on the prow with his hands behind his back, looking coldly at the pier.

The man is about 40 years old, over three meters tall, with a strong figure, and his breath is long and long.

It was still a bit cold in the middle of the night in March, but the middle-aged man was shirtless, only wearing a black cloak, which was placed on the arms in front of his chest. His muscles were bulging, and the veins were like horned dragons, attached to his arms. superior.

Seeing the boat getting closer and closer to the pier, the middle-aged man also had a smile full of desire on his face.

"spread!!!"

"Little ones! Come on!"

"Bring me the woman and the treasure to the boat! Hahahaha!!"

A wild laugh broke the tranquility of the night. Following the order of the middle-aged man, sharp cheers sounded on the deck in an instant. The next second, the ship docked on the shore. He jumped on the pier and rushed towards the surrounding houses.

After a while, screams of fear, screams, and cries filled the entire pier.

Ten minutes later, the alarm bell sounded on the pier.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

As the sound of the bell spread far away, more and more people in Dressrosa were awakened from their sleep. The people in the city also heard the bell ringing from the pier, and looked out the window with their probes. What they saw were burning houses in the distance.

In the palace, the captain of the kingdom's army who was in charge of the night guard anxiously slammed on the door of King Liku's room.

Not long after, Liku Dold III, who was wearing a thin pajamas, opened the door, frowning, looking solemnly at the army commander who knocked on his door in the middle of the night.

Knocking on the door of his bedroom in the middle of the night, I'm afraid something serious happened.

"King Riku! The pier has encountered a large-scale pirate attack!"

Seeing King Liku who opened the door with bare feet in pajamas, the army commander immediately knelt down on one knee, made a big salute, and anxiously reported to King Liku.

"!?"

"Pirate attack?!"

"Where's the security army at the pier?! Isn't the top priority immediately dispatching the pier's security army?! Immediately dispatching the pier's security army to settle the payment. Do you still need to ask for my opinion on such a matter?!"

"Tankuleipound, what are you doing, army commander?!"

King Liku's palace is located in the center of Dressrosa, and it was built on the basis of a hill. Riku Dolde III's own bedroom is directly facing a platform. There is no wall around the platform and you can directly see the sea.

King Liku, who heard the report from his subordinates, was already looking at the port. Although it was covered by layers of thick fog, it was impossible for the fire at the dock to be blocked by such thick fog.

Although the flames in the distance looked blurry under the shroud of fog, King Liku immediately realized the seriousness of the situation when he saw such a scene, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.

"King Liku's order has already been issued by me, but... the guards at the pier completely lost contact ten minutes ago."

"So. I have to disturb you. I think we need to dispatch the Self-Defense Forces!"

Dressrosa is a member of the world government, and the king has the right to prepare his own army. There are tens of thousands of troops in Dressrosa.

This army is divided into three parts, one part is to guard the palace, the royal city army stationed in the palace, one part is to deal with the enemy's aggression, suppress riots, and conduct daily patrols. Attacked by pirates, garrison troops stationed at ports and docks.

Among the three troops, the Wangcheng Army has the smallest number and is the most elite. Those who can join this army are at least elites who can fight three with one.

The largest number is the self-defense army. Although the number is the largest, the quality of the soldiers is the worst.

As for the garrison, the number is in the middle, but the quality of the soldiers is seriously polarized. Due to the fact that they often have to fight pirates, the turnover of personnel is very large. The veterans are the elite of the elite, but there are also many, many recruits. The combat effectiveness is not as good as that of Wangcheng. military.

These three troops, including the Wangcheng Army and the Self-Defense Army, need to be ordered by King Liku himself if they want to mobilize in large numbers. Due to its special attributes, the garrison is often able to act on its own, and Tankure Pound, the army commander, can also mobilize the garrison.

In fact, the attack on the pier had already happened for some time before Tankure Pound reported to King Liku. Dressrosa, located in the New World, is actually often attacked by pirates, but the garrison has nearly 10,000 people. Generally speaking, the little pirates with a bounty of 18 million have already been sent away.

But with the development of the situation, Tankulepond discovered that the pirates who attacked the pier this time did not seem to be ordinary people. Not only were the pirates on the pier not successfully suppressed, but the guards lost contact and rioted. Seems to be moving fast towards the city

"Self-Defense Forces?!"

"Bastard! Is this still a matter of dispatching the Self-Defense Forces?!"

"Let Wang Chengjun take the initiative to prepare!"

King Liku glanced at the scene in the distance, immediately cursed, and then quickly turned around and entered the bedroom.

"What happened?!" The young woman who was lying on King Liku's bed heard the movement outside and had woken up at this moment, looking at King Liku who hurried back to the bedroom, asked worriedly.

"Nothing happened!"

"Go on to sleep, I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back soon."

King Liku didn't say much, but just gave a word of relief, then found his armor from the cabinet, put it on in a hurry, then grabbed the long sword on the shelf, and left the bedroom directly.

Looking at King Liku who was leaving with a long sword, how could the young woman still feel sleepy, she got up and walked to the door, and noticed the scene of the pier, the worry in her eyes couldn't be erased at all.

The young woman clasped her hands in front of her chest, lowered her head slightly, and secretly prayed for her husband.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Little ones, hurry up and get rid of these guys! Don't stay here anymore, go to the city, where there are more treasures and women are more tender!"

On the edge of the city of Dressrosa, the pirates charging towards the city have been stopped by the reacting self-defense forces. The middle-aged man wearing a pirate hat looked at the guards who surrounded him, with a wild smile on his face.

While speaking, he punched the guard in front of him directly. The next second, the terrifying wind of the fist directly knocked away several guards who were closer to him. As the body of the guard fell back to the ground, the blood was instantly blown away. The ground was stained red.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"My uncle is a powerful man who has eaten the fruit of strength. How can you wastes stop me?!"

The man looked at his masterpiece and laughed heartily.

"You bastard, who the hell are you?!"

The guards all looked at the tall man in horror when they saw their companion being killed so easily. Some guards used curses to hide the fear in their hearts, and questioned the man.

"oh?!"

"You don't know me?!"

The man turned his head and looked at the guard who questioned him, with a frown and a gloomy expression on his face.

In the next second, the man suddenly disappeared in place, and in a flash, he had already arrived in front of the guard. He quickly stretched out his arm and grabbed the guard's neck. With his hands raised flat, he lifted the guard up off the ground.

"Uh ho." The guard was grabbed by the neck, struggling hard, and a painful moan came from his throat.

"Remember that my uncle is Lou Winter with a bounty of 550 million Baileys."

"Those people call me a beast that destroys the country!"

While speaking, Lou Winter squeezed the guard's neck with force, and then threw the body away with a casual throw.

The corpse directly hit several guards in the distance. The guard who couldn't dodge in time was hit by the corpse of his companion, and his sternum was broken, and he died soon.

"Isn't it good to live well?!"

"Why did you come to stop me?"

"As long as we have enough, we will leave. Don't resist, obey us obediently, and you will be able to survive."

Winter looked around at the guards surrounding him and his subordinates, and threatened with a smile.

And after his words fell, some guards really started to retreat timidly. Obviously, his words had some effect.

In the face of an enemy that cannot be resisted, most normal people would not dare to put all their eggs in one basket unless they are really driven to a dead end.

The word brave has always been used to describe a small number of people!

"hey-hey!"

Seeing that the guards began to back down, Winter showed a grin on his face, clenched his fists, and after a sprint, he directly rushed into the crowd of guards.

Although these guards are not strong, if the opponent resists stubbornly, it will really waste some of their hands and feet.

Like now, if everyone has no will to fight, they will really become fish on the chopping board and let others slaughter them!

Wen Te, who entered the guards, opened his bow left and right, relying on the power of the fruit of force, making every punch of him a sickle in the hands of the god of death, reaping the lives of the guards.

The guards who were hit by his fist often had no way to stand up again after they fell to the ground. Even if it is just rubbed by a fist, it will still be injured.

But in the blink of an eye, all the guards surrounding Winter's pirates fell to the ground, and no one survived.

"Walk!"

Looking at the corpses of the guards all over the floor, Winter grinned grimly, waved to his subordinates, and then walked towards the city.

Soon, on the edge of the city of Dressrosa, the people began to cry for help, and the raging flames began to burn on the edge of the city.

Killing and setting fire are two of the most skilled things for pirates.

Soon, the pirates carried a lot of "harvests" on their shoulders.

There are less than two hundred people in Winter's team. In a rich country like Dressrosa, only a few "rich people" need to be found, and the pirates' desire for wealth will soon be temporarily satisfied.

In less than half an hour, Winter began to lead his subordinates back towards the port, without entering the central area of ​​the city at all.

Just looting on the edge of the city has already made a lot of money.

And not long after Wen Te and the others faded away, King Liku arrived with the Wangcheng army, but when they arrived here, apart from leaving them a mess all over the ground and screaming people, there was nothing left. Are there pirates? !

The raging fire was burning on the edge of the city, and under the blowing of the wind, it actually began to spread towards the surroundings. The surviving people saw the pirates fade away, and ran out one after another to fight the fire.

King Liku and his men asked a few survivors, and when they learned that the pirates were retreating towards the port, they immediately ordered people to chase them.

However, when King Liku led his Royal City Army to the port full of corpses, the pirate ship with the golden statue of a young girl on its prow had already disappeared into the thick fog.

On the sea area, covered by thick fog, Li Ku Dynasty looked at the sea surface, and could only see a slightly blurred light on the sea surface. There was no trace of the pirate ship at all, let alone the flag of the pirate ship.

Knowing that this group of pirates left, King Riku didn't even know who the enemy was attacking his kingdom.

This group of people, like evil spirits in the thick fog, came and went quickly.

All that is left is the "pain" all over the place.

"."

"Damn bastard! I will never let these guys go!"

King Liku got off his horse, stood at the bow of the boat, watched the light gradually disappearing in the thick fog, and roared with gritted teeth. After venting his emotions, King Liku began to send people to appease and rescue the people, and counted the losses.

This night is destined to be a restless night.

In the early morning, the tired King Liku returned to the palace under the escort of Wang Chengjun. The losses that Dressrosa suffered last night have almost been counted.

Apart from the unquantifiable property, there were hundreds of casualties in the army, the vast majority of them were port guards.

However, the number of victims was five or six thousand.

Seeing the data reported by his subordinates, King Liku's face was extremely ugly, and he summoned the commander of the garrison and countless officers early in the morning.

guess what? ! The middle and high-level members of the security force who could not be contacted last night, most of them were able to contact this morning!

"Fear of war."

"How dare you bastards dare to fight?!!!"

"With the people's offerings, you actually backed down at this time! Bastards! You guys are all bastards!!!"

On the throne, King Liku tightly clutched the paper in his hand, looked at the officers of all ranks of the garrison kneeling below, and said angrily.

Unlike King Riku's imagination, the guards were not wiped out by the pirates, but retreated.

Except for a few hot-blooded and upright squad leaders leading the attack, most of the people were ordered to hide in the camp, guarding the troop leader and his family members.

While King Liku was investigating the damage caused by the pirate attack last night and was pursuing responsibility, a warship slowly docked on the shore of Dressrosa.

"What's going on here?"

"Did you encounter a pirate attack?!"

On the bow of the warship, Cyrus' face was full of excitement after seeing the tragic situation at the dock, his face sank, and he couldn't help whispering.

Soon, Cyrus left the bow and hurried towards the cabin.

Not long after, Ji Guoyuan led Yixiao, Mihawk and others appeared at the bow of the boat, and under the guidance of Cyrus, they looked towards the pier.

At this time, the pier still had traces of last night's pirate madness, the blood on the ground had solidified and oxidized, and the suffering people were digging up the rubble in grief, trying to remove the bodies of relatives and friends from it.

The road in front of the houses was covered with white cloth, some of which seemed to be a little small in size, exposing the head or feet under the white cloth.

Cries of grief filled the entire pier.

Ji Guoyuan, who was called to the bow by Cyrus, also frowned when he saw this scene, and couldn't help but mutter to himself:

"It looks like it's the work of pirates."

"And it's a very vicious character!"
