章 227: 227. Attack
Everyone agreed with Nami.
Leo asked, "Where is the entrance anyway?"
Nami looked out to the sea and saw a waterfall. She pointed to it.
"That is the entrance."
Heh. Intriguing.
Strong tides pushed the Sunny towards the waterfall.
"Hey, carps!"
Luffy yelled as he pointed to the sea.
Giant colourful carps jumped through the sea and rushed up the waterfall.
Suddenly Luffy grinned, "Hey, I got an idea."
He stretched out his arms and grabbed two craps. He then wrapped his legs around the Sunny.
"Baka, what are you doing?!"
Nami was shocked and shouted.
Hahaha.
She only got an excited laugh as an answer.
Suddenly the Sunny rocked. It burst into a terrible speed. The carps jumped into the waterfall and started to climb it. They pulled the Sunny with them.
"Haha."
Leo lightly laughed. He was finding this very exciting.
Suddenly he turned around. He saw an octopus wearing a headband on the ship.
What the hell?
He was flabbergasted. However the creature was harmless, so he let it be.
The carps pulled the Sunny through the strong tides. After a while they saw a break in the waterfall.
Whoosh!
The carps sped through the waterfall and jumped out. The Sunny was pushed out of the waterfall and thrown in air.
"Hahaha! We are here!"
Luffy spread his arms and laughed excitedly.
However the rest of the crew paled. The sea down below was swirling. It formed a terrifying whirlpool. The carps were swept away and swallowed by it.
Leo grabbed onto the main mast, as did Flare.
"Sir, should we jump out?"
Flare asked.
Leo shook his head, "Why? We can swim even in that whirlpool. And, don't you think it's exciting this way."
Flare smiled. He had to admit that this journey was very exciting.
Crash!
Sunny fell into the whirlpool and was swallowed by the strong tides.
...
While Leo was taking a detour to Wano, the outside world was rolling over in shock.
Big Mom was killed! A Yonko died!
And the one who did it was a marine!
This news shocked the world. Every force around the world reeled in shock.
Yonko were apex existences roaming the seas. And now, one of them fell.
Navy HQ.
Akainu just got the Intel, he went silent for a while.
Kizaru who was seated before him said, "Now it's impossible to have any marine move against him."
Though he spoke without a care in the world, he was still shocked to his core. This was a Yonko! It would take two or more admiral level marines to take one down. However, at this moment one person managed to kill Big Mom and her entire crew.
Akainu sorted himself and said, "Let the higher ups worry about it."
Frankly he was a bit worried. At first Leo was someone he could defeat, but he got strong in the blink of an eye. He reached a height which others thought impossible.
Kizaru faintly looked at Akainu and said nothing.
...
Mariejois.
The Gorosei held an emergency meeting.
"This is terrible."
"Yes. He has already reached such heights, and that too right under out nose."
"He is a threat now."
"I agree. I propose to send two admirals and the CP after him."
"I second."
"No objection."
The five elders agreed to eliminate Leo as soon as possible. One of them asked.
"Where is he now?"
"Indefinite. He hasn't returned. The ship he used to get to Totto Land returned missing him and his captain."
All of them fell silent for a moment before one of them said.
"This is actually good."
"Yes. With his strength and that women's terrifying poison it would be impossible to kill them when they are together."
"That's true. Now we can pluck them one by one. His island maybe tightly guarded and impossible to step foot into but there are ways to go around it."
"Right. Kill that women and his crew. Without their help he is just one man, what can one man do?"
The Gorosei came to a decision. Fleets of ships set out from Mariejois.
Orders were relayed to Navy HQ to send two admirals to help the fleet.
However the World Government was surprised when they heard no reply from the admirals.
Aokiji didn't simply pick up his den-den mushi and took a rare vacation.
Kizaru on the other hand tactfully declined stating he was busy with work.
The elders were obviously angered by their half hearted reaction. But there was nothing they could do about it. After all they were admirals.
On Dragon-Tiger island.
The crew was as usual. They trained, ate and slept comfortably. Since their superior was deemed as a criminal they too would be marked as such.
Without official duties they had a little too much time on their hands.
As for the main combatants...
Issho was always fishing.
Mace spent most of his time training.
Dali was lazy for once since Leo wasn't here. He slept most of the time.
As for Violet she helped Shinobu with some work.
Today was as usual. However Issho and the rest were looking sharp and ready for combat.
The rest of the marines stood orderly behind them in a group of five. There was several large canons beside them.
Shinobu was also with them. Snow was resting on her shoulder.
Not long after they saw faint shadows in the distance.
"They are here."
Issho said. He raised his arms and made a gesture.
The marines behind them calmly and orderly marched to the front while dragging the large canons with them.
When the ship's were at firing range Issho gave the command.
"Fire."
Bang! Bang!
Volleys were shot at the fleet coming for them. The shots fired burst apart into a cloud of dark green mist.
The dark green mist blocked the fleets path. And the wind blew the mist towards the fleet.
In a few minutes dark green mist swallowed a large portion of the fleet.
Not long after those ships lost control and steered off of it's course. They rammed into other ships close to them, creating chaos.
Several shadows jumped out of those ships and rushed to the sky.
The marines kept firing. Soon most of the ships were taken out of action. The remaining stayed far from the dark green mist.
Men dressed in white jumped out of the ships and rushed towards the sky, they flew past the mist towards the island.
"Retreat."
Issho commanded.
The marines calmly retreated. The canons were dragged out of the way. After that all of them took out their rifles and stood straight, ready for battle.
Soon those shadows rushing through the sky reached the island. All of them were wearing white suits or the like.
"As expected of Queen Mystique."
One of the man wearing a white hat said.
Shinobu was lazy to even reply to any of them. She turned around and walked towards her laboratory.
One of the men in white saw her movement and acted. However before he could reach her Mace blocked his path.
He wasn't courteous and slashed his large sword at the man. His sword hummed as busoshoku haki covered it's blade.
The man's face changed. He immediately used Soru and retreated. His eyes turned sharp as he looked at Mace.
Mace pointed his sword at him, "We are your opponents."
