Chapter 606 The surrendered and captured navy
In addition to Russ himself, the total number of fishmen and mermaids now appearing on Nine Snakes Island is at least five hundred.
Of course, with only five hundred people, there is definitely no numerical advantage compared to the navy and others.
After all, a fully-manned large naval warship can carry as many as a thousand people.
But this thing can't just be based on quantity... If the navy coming to Nine Snakes Island this time are all elite navy from the Navy Headquarters.
So the fishmen and mermaids brought by Russ this time are the elites of the elites on Dark Island and Fishman Island.
In order to cross several sea areas within three days and also have to go through a fierce battle, Russ carefully selected the candidates for this support.
Most of the fishmen are vicious and warlike in character. In the past, when he was escorting goods, there would occasionally be some reckless little Karami who came out to die.
But as the reputation of Ancient Weapons and Wood Weapons Company grows, now almost as long as their ships fly the company flag, no one dares to provoke them.
It's a good thing to be able to make a name for yourself, but unfortunately there are fewer opportunities to fight now.
They finally became stronger, but now there is no decent opponent to verify their strength, so the fishmen on the island can only vent their energy on work.
This time, when they heard Russ say that there was going to be a fierce battle, and that he was fighting with the star captain, the fishmen and mermaids on the island immediately signed up with excitement.
At that time, there were at least 3,000 fishmen and mermaids registered on the island. However, considering the issue of strength, they were eventually wiped out to only 500 now.
However, the quality of the five hundred fishmen and mermaids who appeared here was quite high, and almost everyone had a bounty on their backs.
Among the five hundred people, there were about fifty people with bounties of over 100 million beauties, and eight people, including Jinbei, with bounties of more than 300 million beli.
As for the remaining 400 people, there are some with bounties as high as 80 to 90 million, and some with bounties of 30 to 40 million, but there is no one with a bounty of less than 10 million Berry.
Because the guy with a bounty of less than 10 million is not worthy of standing here now and has been brushed off before setting off.
In addition to the five hundred strong fishmen and mermaids on the island, Russ also contacted the fishman island. With the power of White Star, there are now several super large sea kings outside the island.
Each of these Neptunes is as big as the entire Nine Snakes Island, and they belong to those overlord-level Neptunes that can eat a small island in one mouth!
What do you think? Lord Zhan Momomaru, do you still think that your navy can escape from our hands safely if you refuse to surrender?
Looking at the ugly-faced navy people in front of him, Russ asked again.
Vice Captain Russ, do we need to talk nonsense with them? Can't we just kill them all?
Yes, yes, I haven't touched my hands for a long time, and my body is almost rusty.
They are all elites of the Navy Headquarters, so I should be able to enjoy them a little bit.
As a former marine, Russ has rebelled for many years now, but he really hates killing his former colleagues unless absolutely necessary.
Especially as he once served in the navy, he also knew very well that no matter how corrupt and incompetent the navy was, it was still a problem between the top brass of the navy and the world government.
Most of the grassroots naval forces in the Navy do have true justice in their hearts, and they just obey orders every time.
However, compared to Russ, the fishmen and mermaids around him now looked at the navy with eyes that were definitely not friendly!
Even though Princess Otohime has been working hard, the fishmen still generally hate humans, and they also hate the navy among humans even more.
The reason is also very simple. Both the fishmen and mermaids hate the world's nobles, the Celestial Dragons, and the navy is their lackey, so it is normal for them to hate Ujiu.
Shut up, our Wood Arms Company has always been a neutral camp. Zhan Momomaru belongs to the Naval Scientific Force, and his position is equivalent to the Navy's Lieutenant General.
In addition to the several major generals here and thousands of naval soldiers, if they are all killed, do you think the navy and the world government will give up?
Or do you want to spread the war to Dark Island and even Fishman Island?
On Dark Island, although Wood doesn't do anything, when it comes to reputation and popularity, there is no doubt that he is number one.
In other respects, although Robin has always been regarded as the second-in-command of Dark Island outside, only the people living on the island know that Russ has a stronger power to intimidate the fish-men on the island than Robin.
Robin is in charge of civilian work, Russ is the martial arts sect, and the fishmen and mermaids all work under him.
Over time, Ruth naturally gained a certain prestige in their minds.
Lord Zhan Taomaru, haven't you thought about it yet? You may have seen that the guys around me are gearing up and can't wait to have a big fight.
If you really plan to resist, even I can't stop them.
If it weren't for the fact that you gave Nine Snake Island three days to think about it, we might just take action directly.
After hearing what Russ said and looking at the many fishmen opposite who smiled maliciously at them, Zhan Taowan was about to say something when a flash of light suddenly appeared in front of Zhan Taowan.
Unfortunately, what appeared with the golden flash was not a handsome blond guy who liked to roll balls with his hands, but a wretched uncle who liked to pout.
Don't think about it anymore, this time our navy surrenders.
Seeing Kizaru appear, Zhan Momomaru and the other marines showed joy, as if they had found their backbone in an instant.
But when they heard what Kizaru said clearly, the expressions on their faces were all frozen at this moment.
Uncle, what are you talking about? Why should we surrender!
It's a simple truth, isn't it? Because if you don't surrender, all of you except Kizaru himself will die on this island.
He just made the right choice now. If I hadn't wanted to completely break up with the Navy and the World Government, I might not have accepted your surrender today.
As Kizaru's figure appeared on the island, Wood's figure also fell from the sky, and stood on the opposite side of Kizaru and said this.
Naval Headquarters, Office of the Admiral.
Ever since he ordered Akainu to launch the Demon Slaying Order on Kuji Island despite Wood's obstruction, Akainu has been anxiously waiting for news.
When the phone on the table rang, Akainu picked up the phone as quickly as possible.
A day and a night have passed, and Akainu originally thought that what he heard this time would be good news.
But who knew that the voice coming from the phone was not Kizaru at all, but another guy that he hated very much!
Mr. Saksky, you've been fine since we said goodbye to each other during the war.
First of all, I would like to congratulate Mr. Saksky for being promoted from admiral to marshal, and then for sending a senior thug to our weapons company.
There is another thing I want to inform Marshal Sakaski, and that is Admiral Kizaru, the highest combat power in your naval headquarters, as well as the Naval Science Force, and some senior naval generals.
Because they had some conflicts with us, they are all captured by us now. If they want to be ransomed, the navy must agree to two conditions.
As soon as Wood finished speaking, Akainu suppressed the tone of squeezing the phone bug and shouted angrily: Stop dreaming! Our navy will not agree to any conditions for you pirates!
Don't refuse in a hurry, Marshal Sakski, it's not too late for you to listen to my two demands before refusing.
The first condition is that although the Pirate Empress has been deprived of the title of The King of the Shichibukai, the Kuja Pirates and the Amazon Lily Kingdom are partners of our company, and the navy must not attack them again in the future.
The second condition is to prepare a ransom of five billion berries, otherwise Marshal Sakski will prepare to collect the corpses for Kizaru and the others.
A mere five billion berries, for a naval admiral, these senior naval generals, and the talents of the naval scientific force, I shouldn’t be asking for too much, right?
Akainu, who was already extremely annoyed, became even more angry after hearing Wood's two conditions.
The Navy is an organization that enforces justice on the sea and deters pirates. If this time it is threatened by pirates and compromises, or even pays a ransom, then where will the Navy's face be in the future?
What's more, this operation to annihilate the King's Shichibukai was originally a measure for the navy to regain its face and prestige.
But now the prestige has not been recovered, and the pirates have even attacked him, and even the highest combat power of the headquarters has been captured, and he has to pay a ransom before he can come back.
If this kind of thing spreads to the sea, what face will the Navy have? Even as a naval marshal, he might not become the laughing stock of the entire sea.
Naturally, Akainu would not agree to the conditions proposed by Wood. He was a rather cold-blooded person to begin with, and he would not make any compromises to the pirates he considered evil.
And just when Akainu was about to express his thoughts, another phone bug on his desk also rang.
This phone bug is directly connected to the World Government and is usually used to notify him when the Five Old Stars ask him to report.
Hearing the phone ringing, Akainu suddenly had a bad feeling. He didn't want to answer it, but he didn't have the courage.
And when the phone was picked up, Akainu's bad premonition suddenly came true.
The Five Old Stars scolded Akainu through the phone, making Akainu so angry that blue veins popped out on his forehead, but there was nothing he could do.
Who allowed you to make the decision to fight against ancient weapons without permission! The Pirate Empress is just a small person, and even if she and Nine Snake Island are let go, it won't do any harm at all.
Now that the situation has become what it is now, who do you think should be responsible for this?
Wood Arms Company is the most advanced and wealthy force in the sea with arms technology. If you push him to the side of the Revolutionary Army, do you understand what the consequences will be?
Moreover, Wood, the ancient weapon, is a friend of many world nobles in the Holy Land. Shalulia Palace, which was saved by him just now, came to us more than once after receiving another phone call from the other party.
How do you want us to explain to the world's noble families in the Holy Land now?
“I’ve said it before, let that guy from the Warring States Period be the marshal for a few more years, but you just don’t listen.
Not only was this young brat unable to solve our problems, he even kept causing us trouble!
In short, in order to calm this matter down, we must try our best to satisfy him according to the requirements of ancient weapons.
If he is pushed to the side of the revolutionary army, then you, the navy marshal, don't have to do this anymore... You'd better get out of the navy completely!
Hearing the phone bugs and the old guys scolding him one by one, Akainu also threw the phone bug away in his hands with an angry look.
God damn, the friends of the world's nobles are nothing more than a bunch of damn parasites who can't bear to part with that nutritious piece of meat.
Akainu is not a fool, and the CP organization of the World Government is not a freeloader. Kizaru and the others have been fighting on Kuja Island for a day and a night. There is no way that the World Government and the so-called world nobles do not know about this.
The reason why there has been no movement before and why I didn't come to ask for an explanation until now is simply that the Navy was defeated this time, and Wood also went to the World Government to ask for an explanation.
Someone must take the blame. After all, if the ancient weapons are not given an explanation, the other party will definitely not give up and may even fall to the side of the revolutionary army.
But it is impossible for the World Government and the Celestial Dragons to take the blame for this. In addition, it was indeed Akainu who made his own decisions before, so he can only take the blame for this.
Well, I think Marshal Sakski also received a call from the World Government.
Do you still feel that the conditions I proposed before are completely non-negotiable?
Almost not long after Akainu threw away the phone bug from the World Government, Wood almost made a second call.
Wood, you bastard! How dare you ask the Celestial Dragons and the World Government to suppress me!
If it hadn't been for the call from the Five Old Stars just now, Akainu would definitely not have agreed to Wood's rude conditions.
Kizaru is the shining person of the Sparkling Fruit. If he really wants to run away, Akainu doesn't believe that anyone in the sea can capture him alive.
As for the other guys, forgive Akainu's blunt statement, in his opinion, they are not worth mentioning compared to the dignity of the navy.
Since we are a navy, we must always be prepared to make sacrifices when enforcing justice.
In short, Akainu must compromise with the pirates, and even pay to ransom people. This is something Akainu will never compromise on.
There is no way, who will let the whole sea know that you, Sakaski, are a mad dog.
If I want to make a dog obedient, then of course I have to go to the dog’s owner. Do I need to try to reason with the mad dog?
Wood barked at Akainu like a mad dog, and although the latter was furious at the moment, he still had nothing to do with Wood.
