Chapter 47 Please read it! Two fierce cats in the South China Sea!
【Boom——】
A dazzling lightning flashed in the sky, illuminating the dim sea covered by dark clouds, but in the end it was only a moment of light. The black and blue waves kept trying to shake the towering red earth continent, but they could only end up being shattered into pieces.
【Poof! ! 】
I saw a naval warship covered with gun ports. From the point where I couldn't see the top at a glance, it rushed down like a savage beast along the mountain-climbing current of the Upside Down Mountain, and plunged into this land that was far larger than the Grand Line. In an unknown amount of sea area.
Next, every ten minutes an identical 'savage beast' would swoop down, until a fleet of five warships, far larger than ordinary ships, appeared brightly on the sea under the upside down mountain.
"Now we're encountering this kind of heavy rain..."
Dorag, wearing a green suit and a justice coat, opened the hatch and walked to the deck. He was speechless looking at the gloomy sky, the howling wind and the heavy rain.
However, because of the ability of the hurricane fruit, the invisible airflow surrounding him will naturally shield him from all wind and rain.
After many days of sailing, they always arrived at the South China Sea. At this time, Vegapunk has not yet developed the technology for warships to pass through the windless zone, so even the navy needs to line up to walk up the Upside Down Mountain.
[Crash--]
I saw Dorag glance at the warships around him, and a light green airflow suddenly spread out from his body. Suddenly, the five warships were 'blessed' by the wind. Not only did an invisible film block the strong wind and heavy rain, but the speed of the ship also increased. Accelerating at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He is well aware of the importance of military speed. The area of the South China Sea is very, very large. In addition, although the climate in the four seas is not as extreme and sudden as the Great Sea Route, it also means that it is very stable.
In other words, if we are on the Grand Line, stormy weather can come and go at a moment's notice. It lasts for a short time, but no one knows whether the next one will be hail or a tornado.
The duration of a climate here in Sihai is relatively normal, and it is not a problem if it lasts for several days or nights.
As a result, the time it takes for the fleet to reach its destination will be greatly increased!
At this time, the navies of all levels who were originally staying in the cabin gradually discovered this magical feature. Except for those who needed to stay at their posts, they stepped out of the deck to breathe fresh air with great joy.
"Major General Dolag, this ability of yours is really convenient. You are indeed a natural type!" A major general carrying a long red sheath sword came over and said with a smile.
During this operation, Rear Admiral Irvine temporarily assumed the position of adjutant. In the Navy Headquarters, only vice admirals would assign adjutants to follow them for a long time, and this time it was a special case.
Logically speaking, as a rear admiral, Dorag should not be the commander-in-chief of five headquarters-level warships, but now that he is, he needs an adjutant to assist in commanding the fleet.
However, Major General Ivan has no complaints. First, as the son of Garp, Dorag will definitely be treated differently. After all, there are not many navy who do not respect that naval hero. Second, Dorag’s strength is convincing enough. .
Dorag, who was not an esper before, has physical skills and domineering levels that are beyond the average level of a major general. Now that he has the top natural hurricane fruit, he must have become stronger.
Now the Navy has compared him with the three generals of Sakaski, Porusalino, and Kuzan.
It's just that Dolag himself knows his own situation. He has only eaten this hurricane fruit for about a year, and his level of development is difficult to compare with the three people who have been immersed in this method for more than ten years.
So his main combat power now is still focused on physical skills and domineering!
"Have you found out the situation of the naval branches around the Kingdom of Thutmose?" Dorag had no intention of joking and brought up business seriously.
"It has been found out that South China Sea Division 289, Division 242, and Division 194 are about fifty nautical miles away from the Kingdom of Thutmose, and are located in the northeast, southeast, and west directions respectively, and we are located The Upside Down Mountain is located on the northwest side."
Dorag nodded, thinking in his mind, these four naval branches are so close to the slave king's base camp, but why have they been hidden so well for so many years?
"What is the strength and configuration of these branches?"
"The 289th Division is about the same as the 242nd Division, with about 3,000 troops and five small warships. The 194th Division, which is closest to the Kingdom of Thutmose, is relatively stronger. According to intelligence, it has nearly 5,000 marines and small warships. Eight ships.”
Brigadier General Irvine told the intelligence he had obtained, and then asked: "Should we inform them now to cooperate with this operation?"
The Kingdom of Thutmose has nearly 30,000 troops and 10,000 slave-catching fleets scattered around the world. I don’t know how many slave-catching fleets they can return. Therefore, with the strength of these five headquarters-level warships they brought, it is too difficult to make a round. Difficult.
Because the regular strength of a headquarters-level warship is 800 people, five ships are 4,000 people. Although because they are all from the headquarters, both in terms of military quality and personal strength, they are much stronger than the navy of the Sihai Division, but after all, they are still few people.
You know, the Kingdom of Thutmose is a medium-sized island, which is actually much larger than the Kingdom of the Drum.
Therefore, the encirclement and suppression of the 'Slave King' Taklama and the entire strength of his subordinates will definitely require a joint operation with the naval branch here in the South China Sea.
Dorag shook his head.
"No, we will notify you when we only have one day left to sail. These branches are only fifty nautical miles away from the Kingdom of Thutmose. They can reach their locations in two hours at most. There is no need to rush."
Major General Ivan thought for a moment after hearing this, and soon understood some of the other party's thoughts. This was obviously to prevent someone from reporting to the 'Slave King'.
Thinking about it, Taklama has been operating in this South China Sea for decades. It would be nonsense to say that its influence has not penetrated into the surrounding naval branches.
After all, not many people can resist all kinds of temptations.
"I understand, Major General Dorag!"
Major General Ai Wen suddenly discovered that the temporary commander he was partnering with did not seem to be the kind of person who was all about muscles and dealt with things solely with his fists.
Ahem, although some people shouldn't say this, Lieutenant General Garp gave everyone this impression, so they thought Dorag was similar.
"By the way, who is the pirate with the highest bounty in the South China Sea now?" At this time, Dorag asked again, and Major General Ivan thought for a while.
"It should be the Black Cat Pirates and the White Cat Pirates. The Black Cat Pirates' captain 'Three-Legged Cat' has a bounty of 48 million Baileys, and the White Cat Pirates' captain 'Kitten Cat', With a bounty of 43 million Baileys, these are the two most famous groups of pirates in the South China Sea in recent years."
"Three-legged cat, fishing for kittens, what kind of funny name is this?" Dorag turned his head in confusion, because it didn't sound like a nickname that a vicious pirate should have.
Major General Aiwen shrugged and said he didn't know.
"Haha, although the names are ridiculous, according to the information, both of them are users of the animal cat fruit, and they are in the form of the Pallas cat and the lion cat, which are famous for their ferocity among cats. Since their real names are unknown, they are Called by nicknames.”
"It is said that they are still brothers and have a very good relationship. Because neither one wants to wrong the other, they each established a pirate group in the name of the captain. However, the two pirate groups have always acted jointly. Over the years, whether it is The strength and power are enough to dominate one side in the South China Sea, and they are not even willing to risk entering the Grand Route."
"I see, there are still two animal-type ability users. That's not surprising." Drago suddenly understood and no longer dwelled on the nickname.
"In this way, you report the news to those three branches, no, to all the surrounding branches, saying that we are here to catch these two 'cats', and ask them to help pay attention to each other's position, and wait for orders to support at any time. !”
