Chapter 645: Completed, storm is coming! (Two in one)

The overall bounty of the Straw Hat Pirates is only a small pirate group in the whole ocean.

If we only talk about strength, the Straw Hat Pirates are definitely the top in the first half of the Grand Line.

Although they did not encounter any strong opponents along the way, the growth rate of the members' strength did not slow down due to the low intensity of the battle.

With the help of Luffy, even Sanji, who was obsessed with cooking to please Nami and Vivi, successfully awakened the observation Haki and armed Haki.

Whether or not to master Haki can be said to be a watershed.

This determines whether this pirate group is qualified to enter the New World.

For any pirate group that is capable of making a breakthrough in the New World, mastering Haki is the most basic and can be regarded as the threshold for entry.

And now this Straw Hat Pirates has the strength and vision to make a breakthrough in the New World.

Luffy, who had received orthodox naval education in the Navy Headquarters, had already opened his eyes. He knew very well what position his strength was in this sea. Although his style of doing things still seemed a bit nonsensical, Luffy knew very well what kind of people he could and could not provoke.

Therefore, after landing on the Sabaody Archipelago with the crew, Luffy and the crew were also very low-key.

Luffy slipped out of the Navy Headquarters. He knew very well how powerful the Navy Headquarters' intelligence network was in the Sabaody Archipelago. In order to prevent his actions from being discovered by Sengoku, Luffy also tried to be as low-key as possible.

Luffy was afraid that Sengoku would send a general that he could not deal with and forcibly take him back to the Navy Headquarters.

In order to conceal his presence, Luffy also hid in the most lively island GR-33 during the period when the ship was coated.

The islands GR30-GR39 in the Sabaody Archipelago form a very distinctive soap bubble park, which is the most crowded amusement park in the Sabaody Archipelago. All tourists who come to the Sabaody Archipelago will not miss it.

With a large population and complex personnel composition, the Bubble Park naturally became the best place for Luffy and his crew to hide their tracks.

The headquarters navy stationed in the Sabaody Archipelago paid more attention to the shipyards of GR50~GR59, the concentration area of ​​coating craftsmen, and the concentration area of ​​hotels in GR70-GR79.

The security environment in places like amusement parks has always been good, and the navy has invested relatively little supervision here.

It is precisely because Luffy was born in the headquarters of the navy that he can clearly know which area of ​​the Sabaody Archipelago is more suitable for their activities.

The coating work is a relatively long process. Good craftsmen may need three or four days, and craftsmen who are a little slower may need a week or even longer.

And those black craftsmen who specialize in coating pirate ships, both the coating period and the coating cost are far higher than ordinary craftsmen.

This is not

When Nami didn't know how to find the "black worker" Rayleigh, Nami had already spent 300,000 Baileys before coating.

This is the channel fee.

Every pirate who wants to go to Fishman Island will be "slaughtered" before departure.

Rayleigh and Luffy are not familiar with each other, and the two have not established a preliminary understanding through the auction world. Even when Rayleigh was coating the Sunny, Luffy had already led the crew except Franky to the amusement park.

He and Luffy have never even met, let alone any kind of master-disciple relationship between the two.

For Rayleigh, coating the Sunny is just a job that allows him to buy wine.

I am afraid that even he himself did not expect that the young savior who ate the Nika Fruit would pass by him like this.

Just when the Straw Hat Pirates arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago and prepared to go to Fishman Island, the main force of the New Navy also spent more than a year to complete the full army refit.

It took a lot of time from the design and production of new equipment to the full army's equipment. During this period, these new weapons of the New Navy also made a lot of detailed adjustments.

At the same time, Vegapunk's development of thermal weapons did not stop just because it wanted to re-equip the entire New Navy.

New weapons were invented one after another. The New Navy not only made large-scale updates to individual weapons, but also had different degrees of "evolution" in warships, naval guns and other weapons.

There is a huge generation gap between the weapons and equipment of the New Navy and those of ordinary pirates.

On this day, the New Navy, which had updated its equipment and completed training, began to gather on a large scale at the Cake Island Harbor, and then, under the leadership of Kuzan, quickly sailed out of the harbor.

The total number of warships in the fleet led by Kuzan has expanded to nearly 200, and the number of main battleships with a length of nearly 200 meters has reached 20. Other navigation ships, frigates, early warning ships, and supply ships formed a formation and gathered around the main battleships, and sailed out to the open sea.

At a glance, the huge New Navy fleet covered the entire sea area visible to the naked eye.

As the fleet passed, turbulent waves appeared on the originally calm sea surface.

Wooden sailing ships, which are outdated products, have been completely eliminated. With the production machines designed and manufactured by Vegapunk, it took only more than a year for the new navy's fleet equipment to be completely new.

It is foreseeable that no pirate group in the new world today can survive the steel torrent of the new navy.

The generals leading this large-scale action of the new navy are Kuzan, Yixiao and Mihawk.

After the fleet sailed out of the Wan Guo Sea, it was divided into three forces and headed in different directions.

Even if the new navy tried to block the news, such a large-scale action could not be concealed by blocking the news.

The secret construction of so many warships has already taken advantage of the special characteristics of Lantern Lord. Naturally, this large-scale action cannot be concealed from other forces on the sea.

As soon as the new navy's troops were dispatched, the Navy Headquarters and the World Government received news about the latest developments of the new navy.

The appearance of this steel torrent also scared Sengoku so much that he didn't care about Luffy's group at all, and hurriedly held an internal meeting.

The new navy has achieved a technological leap.

This is an extremely huge pressure for everyone on this sea.

Whether it is the pirate forces or the world government, the strength of the new navy is harmful to them.

But strangely, no one acted rashly. They were all waiting, waiting for the first battle of the new navy's steel torrents, and then they could effectively evaluate the strength of the new navy and formulate the next way to deal with the new navy.

Fishman Island.

After the new navy's new weapons and equipment were equipped to the main combat units, they were finally able to supply other combat units.

Jinbei's unit, which was stationed on Fishman Island all year round, was considered to be a group of people who received new equipment relatively late in the entire new navy system.

The reason was very simple. The fishman navy stationed on Fishman Island did not participate in the unification war of the new world, and the fishman navy itself had an unparalleled advantage in the sea. In the deep sea, they could apply new weapons and equipment in relatively few occasions.

Therefore, when the warships were equipped, the fishman navy's priority was naturally relatively low, and the number of new equipment given to them was relatively small.

But on the day when the warships transporting the warships entered the harbor of Fishman Island, Jinbei personally brought a group of people to receive these weapons.

In Yoriichi's opinion, the Fishman Navy may not need these weapons and equipment, but the actual situation is not like this.

In recent years, the number of pirates who sneak into Fishman Island through various channels has only increased.

Even if the Fishman Navy stationed on Fishman Island has expanded twice, it is impossible to monitor the entire Fishman Island. The weakening of the World Government's control over the four seas has made the soil for breeding pirates more fertile, and its influence has inevitably affected Fishman Island.

In recent years, the Fishman Navy on the island has also needed to fight pirates on the land of the island. Although fishmen are naturally stronger than ordinary humans, every pirate who can come to Fishman Island is not an ordinary person. Ordinary fishmen do not have an absolute advantage in fighting these pirates on land.

Fortunately, the general guarding Fishman Island is Jinbei. If it were a weaker leader, Fishman Island would have been penetrated by pirates long ago.

But Jinbei is a kind and honest man. Even though he encountered such great pressure, he never made any request to the headquarters, and he didn't even complain to the art school. He has been silently leading the fish-man navy to resist the increasing number of pirates, bearing huge pressure.

The reason why Jinbei attaches so much importance to the replacement of the new navy's weapons this time is because he really needs the help of the headquarters.

"Vice Admiral Jinbei, this is the list of weapons, please take a look."

On the warship, Jinbei was carefully looking at this all-steel transport ship. A transport officer came to Jinbei's side with a list and said softly.

"Okay."

Jinbei heard the list from the transport officer's hand, and his expression became a little strange.

It's not that there is anything wrong with this list, but the names of the weapons listed on this list are the first time Jinbei has seen them, and he doesn't have an intuitive concept.

"Um. Lieutenant Colonel, can you give me a brief introduction to these weapons and equipment?"

"I'm a little confused."

"You know, I haven't seen these new weapons."

"And how will the headquarters arrange the subsequent use and maintenance of these equipment?"

Jinbei, who has been stationed on Fishman Island for many years, has been outside the power center of the new navy. It's not that the new navy deliberately alienates him, but because Jinbei himself hopes to stay on Fishman Island to protect his hometown from pirates.

It's natural that Jinbei doesn't know the latest major events in the new navy headquarters after staying in the deep sea for many years.

"Okay, Vice Admiral."

"Let me give you a brief introduction to these weapons."

"As for the equipment maintenance and use issues you mentioned, the headquarters has also sent a special teaching team this time. They will stay on Fishman Island to teach their colleagues how to use these new weapons."

The transport officer, Lieutenant Colonel, said as he led Jinbei to the front of the armory box, opened a weapon box with a "Pioneer" steel stamp on the outside, took out the weapon from it, and then returned to Jinbei to introduce it.

The simple demonstration without bullets only satisfied Jinbei's curiosity, but when Jinbei was taken to the small shooting range inside the ship and saw the live-fire exercise with his own eyes, he also showed a deep surprise on his face.

"These weapons are too powerful!!!"

"What happened in the headquarters? Who invented and manufactured these weapons?!"

The power of the new weapons can even pose a certain threat to Jinbei, which makes him curious about the scientists who invented these weapons in the headquarters, and he subconsciously asked such a question.

"Uh, sorry, Vice Admiral Jinbei."

"Although I really want to answer your question, the fact is... I don't know."

"I'm afraid only the admirals of Cake Island know this."

"By the way, Vice Admiral, there is another special weapon that you need to see in person."

"The superiors have said that only you can use this weapon."

After simply testing some weapons in the small shooting range on the warship, the transport officer also came to Jinbei with a mysterious look on his face.

"Only I can use it?"

Jinbei was also stunned when he heard this, and he was a little excited in his heart.

No man can refuse such a powerful firearm.

But when Jinbei was taken to a dim cabin by the transport officer, he was stunned.

This is a small cabin of five or six square meters. On the bed in the cabin, there lies a young boy with white hair. He looks like Abel.

"What is this?"

The moment he saw the sleeping boy, Jinbei's mind was full of question marks.

"This is the Seraphim, named S-Abel."

"Vice Admiral Jinbei, his system only recognizes your audio. You can wake him up by calling his name."

At the reminder of the transport officer, Jinbei collected his mind and gently called S-Abel's name.

The moment he heard Jinbei's voice, the Seraphim S-Abel started, slowly opened his eyes, and sat up from the bed.

"S-Abel is the latest artificial human developed by the headquarters."

"It is a real war weapon."

"As long as it is not in the sea, he can adapt to any combat environment."

"The highest command of the Seraph is the headquarters' generals, and this Seraph, in addition to obeying the orders of the generals, only obeys the orders of you, the vice admiral."

Although he has not seen S-Abel take action with his own eyes, Jinbei can feel a faint sense of oppression from this Seraph.

He understands that this "weapon" sent by the headquarters this time is probably something extraordinary.

After receiving the new weapons from the headquarters, the navy on Fishman Island spent some time to familiarize themselves with the new weapons.

And when these fishman navy appeared in front of the pirates again, the combat effectiveness they possessed was already very different.

"Let's sail!!!"

On a sunny afternoon, the Straw Hat Pirates gathered again on the Sunny, which had been coated. With Luffy's roar, the Sunny also dived into the sea and headed towards Fishman Island 10,000 meters below.
