Chapter 973: Sand Crocodile died in battle? !

The World Government's artillery support made the nearly ten thousand ninjas in the audience overjoyed, but it also made many people feel uneasy.

Do they remember that not long ago the World Government was the enemy?

If these demons hadn't appeared, and if they had continued to resist, perhaps these artillery fires, which were as powerful as the 'Small Tailed Beast Jade', would have fallen on top of their heads, or perhaps they would have flown into their village?

The main reason is that these ninja villages in the ninja world really have no good way to deal with over-the-horizon bombings from dozens of kilometers away.

All they could do was follow the direction in which the shells were coming to find the artillery array and find a way to get rid of it.

"coming!

Onoki and Rasa, who were high up in the sky, were the first to notice the horizon behind them, and black spots began to appear one after another.

Look carefully again.

Those black spots are thousands of armored convoys stretching for dozens of kilometers.

At this time, the cannonballs overhead were still roaring across the sky, falling one after another into the group of demons in the distance.

Such a loud movement actually covered up the roar of those armored vehicles as they drove.

However, as the distance between the two sides grew closer, the ninjas naturally noticed the arrival of real reinforcements.

These guns are good though.

But they actually need someone to take over the defense on their behalf.

There's no way, they really can't hold on any longer

soon.

When the convoys of the Third Division and the Fifth Division arrived about two hundred meters away from the ninja coalition, they began to place the armored vehicles side by side and quickly set up temporary defense facilities.

At the same time, a figure wearing a black robe walked out of the team and took the time to draw a large-scale formation in the open space.

They are all alchemists who like to fight and choose to join the army.

Also, the pictures they drew were not simply sketched on the ground.

Instead, alchemy is used to create formation formations at different depths underground.

This can minimize the problem of the ground being destroyed and causing the formation to fail in subsequent battles.

"Everyone of the Ninja Alliance, please follow our command and retreat to the rear of our defense line. Again, everyone of the Ninja Alliance"

A dozen armored vehicles equipped with phone bugs equipped with loudspeakers ran quickly behind the ninjas, leaving behind these reminders.

Naturally, the ninjas had no objections and immediately started taking action starting from the people in the last row.

at the same time.

Lieutenant General Charlotte Owen and Lieutenant General Dalmecia both sent a platoon of fifty troops to the forefront of the ninja coalition.

This confused the top ninjas such as Rasa, Chiyo, Jiraiya, Onoki, and Fugaku Uchiha.

And when they heard what kind of experiment they were going to do, they became even more confused.

In the end, I could only watch helplessly as these heavily armed soldiers in black fired fiercely at the demon with long-handled guns that were also pitch-black.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise of gunfire on the battlefield.

A ball of fire bloomed at the muzzle of the heavy automatic rifle.

These Army soldiers never let go of the trigger from the beginning to the end.

Next to them, the major who served as the squad leader and the lieutenant colonel who served as the platoon leader narrowed their eyes and carefully observed the changes in the demons after they were shot.

Soon they noticed that the demon who had been shot gradually fell to the ground and could not get up, or staggered after getting up, making it difficult to maintain his body balance.

efficient!

The Academy’s guess was correct!

Seeing this scene, the faces of the majors and lieutenant colonels showed joy.

Dean Bega Punk of the Academy of Sciences had made a conjecture before.

Does the power of Devil Fruit really have something in common with the power of devils?

So does the Sea Tower Stone, which has a restraining effect on Devil Fruit users, have the same effect on demons?

If possible, it would be best to capture a few demons alive to test them.

It's just that it's really difficult to do it under the current circumstances.

Because they were blocked here by the ninja coalition, there were no lone demons at all.

However, Sakaski said, isn’t it just to know whether the Sea Tower Stone is useful to demons?

Try it directly on the battlefield!

The method is also simple, just fire two rounds with a firearm equipped with sea floor stone bullets, and then see how the demon is hit.

Judging from the current results, Vegapunk's conjecture is correct.

Sea floor stone is really useful for demons!

It's just that it is not the effect of killing with one blow, but it will make the devil weak and lose its strength, making it difficult to move in a short period of time.

And the more bullets in the body, the stronger the effect. If it's just one or two, you won't see much change.

After the news spread back, the morale of the whole army was greatly boosted.

After all, if you can use firearms to kill demons from a distance, how many people are willing to pick up a knife and fight with them up close?

Not to mention the number of these demons, it really gives people the feeling that they are endlessly killed and destroyed.

Then the best option is to destroy them with shells and bullets.

"Let the higher ups put down all the sea tower stones and bullets immediately!"

Charlotte Owen and Dalmesia immediately ordered.

Not long after, the four air force warships flying in the air began to drop a large number of metal boxes into the position, and then soldiers on the ground carried them to each company's squadron unit.

Things like seastone bullets.

With the support of Wano Island's minerals and the McClatchy Mechanism's ability to compress seastone powder from seawater, the World Government has been able to achieve large-scale mass production.

However, due to various concerns, in the end it was limited supply to various departments as 'special bullets'.

For example, Impel Down City, the Police Department, CIPHER POL, and of course, the bulk of them are still the main battle force of the Army.

But now that it has been confirmed that sea floor stone bullets are effective against demons, it may allow the world government to increase the scale of its production.

at the same time.

Just when the Third Division and the Fifth Division were setting up defenses and preparing to take over the defense line from the Ninja Alliance.

Crocodile, located at the westernmost point of the Swamp Kingdom, was no longer able to resist. He was half kneeling in a circular pit that was half scorched earth lava and half frozen soil and frost.

The situation of Guren and Esdeath not far away is not optimistic either.

The huge nine-tailed sky fox fell into the frost covered with bruises.

Esdeath barely used her foil sword to support her tired body and stood in front of Guren.

Fortunately, Lilith and Nahama had no intention of killing them.

But Crocodile's side

"It's so boring. Apart from the beautiful scream before, there is no sound anymore, Nahama."

Lilith looked at the man below expressionlessly.

"The aura of fear exuding from him is also very thin. It seems that he is another so-called human hero, Lilith."

Nahama recalled that the human heroes from different worlds he had encountered over the past few hundred years were all killed by them after they got tired of playing with them.

But he had to admit that Crocodile was the strongest human being they had ever encountered.

Although they haven't figured it out yet.

Why does Crocodile have the aura of devil on him.

But it does not matter.

You will understand everything later when you catch Crocodile's soul and eat it.

"Lilith, give him the final blow. There are still many humans in this world for us to play with and kill."

"Okay, Nahama, I have been looking forward to seeing his death for a long time~"

Lilith grinned.

As soon as he finished speaking, the two demons each raised an arm and released again toward Crocodile, blazing black flames and cold black ice.

"Is this the end of my journey?"

Crocodile felt bitter in his heart. He really didn't expect that he would die in such a place.

"That bastard Barrett, when he heard the news that I died in battle, he must have laughed to death, right?"
