Chapter 99 The Golden Lion Must Die
Warring States' unusual anxiety made Darren frown and couldn't help but ask:
"General of the Warring States Period, with your wisdom, it should not be difficult to see that this is the time when the Golden Lion and Roger are fighting fiercely, and it is not the right time to order an attack now.
Darren looked at Sengoku with a flash of confusion and doubt in his eyes.
Although the current timeline is still quite early, the Warring States Period was only a general of the headquarters, and he was far from becoming the resourceful, amazing, and rebellious naval marshal of later generations.
Both the city and the vision are limited to this era, and have not reached the peak level during the war.
But even so, his reaction shouldn't be so "unbearable".
"Of course I know now is not the best time to launch a general attack."
Hearing Darren's words, Zhan Guo couldn't help but grit his teeth, with a tangled look on his face.
"According to normal tactics and intelligence analysis, the best time is of course to wait until the two pirate groups fight each other until both are defeated, and then our navy finally steps in to clean up the situation."
"But Darren boy, this is just the perfect, ideal situation."
Sengoku's eyes were filled with gloom and solemnity.
"What is more likely to happen is that our navy may be discovered by them at any time. The longer the delay, the greater the possibility of being discovered."
"Boy Darren..."
Warring States turned to look at Darren and said worriedly:
"We can't wait any longer. The Navy Headquarters cannot afford such a risk."
Darren was stunned.
Looking at the streaks of blood lingering around Sengoku's pupils in front of him, he instantly realized something.
Political pressure!
The Golden Lion has wreaked havoc all over the world during the past period, creating extremely heavy political pressure on the Navy Headquarters.
Both the franchising and non-franchising countries, and even the World Government, are probably putting constant pressure on the navy, especially Sengoku, the naval headquarters general responsible for arresting the Golden Lion.
Warring States, who has been under such pressure, is obviously not in a good state. It is estimated that he has not slept for many days.
Golden Leos are cautious, dangerous, and extremely difficult to deal with.
Relying on his Devil Fruit ability, this guy can easily avoid the navy and government intelligence networks and hide his whereabouts perfectly.
It is precisely because of this that the Navy has nothing to do with him.
As for the situation at hand.
The longer time passes, the more likely he is to discover the navy's ambush and retreat directly before the navy can react.
Therefore, for Warring States, even if now is not the best time to attack, he cannot risk waiting any longer.
Seize this opportunity, even if you have to face the risk of facing two legendary pirate groups at the same time, the navy must take action!
No wonder……
Darren suddenly understood and couldn't help but sigh.
This is where he was negligent.
He only cares about maximizing interests and tactical victory, but forgets the overall strategic issues.
But there’s nothing wrong with that.
If he is not in his position, he will not seek his government.
"General Warring States, I understand, and I admit that your opinion is important."
Darren lit a brand new cigar and said calmly.
Warring States' eyes lit up.
"But I refuse."
Darren said without hesitation.
Warring States Period:…
This damn brat! !
Only the Vice Admiral's confident and proud voice was heard slowly spreading in the violent storm.
"I am just a vice admiral, not a general, let alone a marshal."
"It is your job, Warring States General, to withstand political pressure, not mine."
"I have only one duty."
Darren's eyes were fixed on the sea in the distance that was gradually shrouded in blood and gunpowder smoke. Countless tragic wails and deafening roars of artillery came from that direction.
Bodies were tossed in the huge waves, and the torn pirate ship sank into the sea... An earth-shattering battle was taking place over there.
Darren exhaled a long stream of smoke like a dragon and sneered:
"——Lead the navy to the final victory in this war!"
Warring States pupils shrank.
Final victory! ?
This kid... is too confident! !
He waited so firmly...
What are you waiting for! ?
Or is it that he still has some back-ups and trump cards that he hasn’t used yet?
But the navy headquarters' elite and high-end combat capabilities have basically been exhausted.
Marshal Kong must garrison Marinevando and at the same time protect the holy land of Mariejoia.
Zefa did not participate in military affairs and stayed in the training camp to prepare for the next training camp.
It can be said without mercy that the high-end combat power that the navy can dispatch has basically been invested in this war.
There is no way Darren has any other hidden cards!
"etc!"
Warring States pupils suddenly shrank.
"You...want to kill the Golden Lion directly!?"
Darren glanced at him and said doubtfully:
"Isn't that what you think?"
The Warring States Period paused for a moment and then said in deep thought:
"The Golden Lion's ability is too difficult to deal with. If he encounters an absolute danger, that guy will definitely abandon his fleet and escape alone without hesitation."
"I have discussed this issue with Marshal Kong in private before. Considering this factor, the main goal of this operation is actually to annihilate the effective force of the Flying Pirates."
"Besides that, the priority is to defeat the Roger Pirates!"
After all, the Roger Pirates can't fly.
But the Golden Lions.
The difficulty of the two crusade is not at the same level at all.
I see……
A mocking smile appeared on Darren's lips.
"It's such a shame."
He understood what Warring States meant.
The Golden Lion himself is too difficult to defeat, but his fleet is different.
The most important point is that as long as the Golden Lion's flying fleet is annihilated like last time, the navy will have a good explanation to both the World Government and the members of the major alliance countries.
politics!
It’s still this damn politics! !
"Our views are somewhat different, Warring States General."
A gloomy killing intent burst out from Darren's eyes.
"In my opinion, Roger can put it aside for this time."
"But... the golden lion must die!!"
Warring States was shocked when he heard this.
He looked at Darren in surprise.
From the eyes of the Vice Admiral in front of him, he did not see the opposition between justice and evil, nor the excitement of conquering the pirates, nor the slightest sense of responsibility.
Some, there is only pure hatred!
From the beginning of the plan to spread false news to the layout of this war, Darren only had one goal from beginning to end!
Not Roger, not the flying fleet of the Golden Lion!
This kid... just wants to kill the golden lion!
How vindictive!
Warring States trembled for no reason.
'Don't let this guy Darren take note of you in the future, otherwise you won't be able to sleep well...'
An idea came to his mind.
"Then how long do you have to wait?"
Seeing that the war in the distance had begun to enter a fierce stage, the figures of Roger and the Golden Lion turned into red and gold and fought in mid-air, erupting with terrifying turmoil. Warring States couldn't help but ask.
“The question is not when to wait, but what to wait for.”
Darren smiled meaningfully.
"Trust me, Warring States General."
His eyes were extremely unruly.
"Justice will prevail."
————
"kill!!"
"Kill them!!"
"Kill Roger, and our Sky Pirates will dominate the world!!"
"Ha ha ha ha!!"
The pirates' ferocious laughter kept ringing in the wind and rain, mixed with the roar of artillery and the clash of swords.
With Roger and Golden Lion officially fighting each other, the Flying Pirates also completely signaled the war.
The cannons poured out tongues of fire crazily, and the dense shells cut through the rain curtain, turning into an airtight net of death... and shrouding the Oro Jackson.
"Protect the Jackson!"
Rayleigh's eyes narrowed, he shouted in a solemn tone, and he jumped up from the deck immediately.
The silver-white long sword in his hand suddenly came out of its sheath, slashing out a brilliant moonlight.
Swish, swish, swish! !
A dozen or so silver slashing sword lights flashed through the air, cutting dozens of cannonballs in half before exploding.
