章 142: Battle Plan
Bang!
A large splash of water fell on the deck as the Going Merry began to sail toward the Ennies Lobby.
"Liam, it seems like Enies Lobby is at the corner of the Calm Belt. If we get stuck in the Calm Belt, it will be big trouble. What should we do?" Nami stood next to Liam and asked.
She was holding a map in her hand which was the map of Enies Lobby.
"Don't worry too much about that! I have already taken care of that."
Liam shook his head and turned around.
"Robin, how about the Marines? Did you find the Admirals?"
"Uh-huh!"
Robin nodded her head and spoke.
"The Marine Ship that is chasing us right now has Aokiji. As for Kizaru, I haven't seen him but there must be a warship following Aokiji's warship."
"Kizaru is a Logia Light Fruit User, right? He could simply fly to Enies Lobby." Sanji put down his cigarette and spoke.
"Liam, those guys woke up!"
Chopper ran out of the cabin and shouted.
"Alright, call them out. Let's discuss the plan of attack properly."
Liam nodded his head and spoke.
"Vice-Captain, Marine Ships are closing in. What should we do?" One of the Buggy's Crew Members shouted from the other ship.
"Just focus on following our ship." Liam didn't bother with them and sat down.
He took out a massive map. It was a drawing of Enies Lobby but on a bigger scale and with a lot of details.
Pat! Pat! Pat!
Several figures walked out of the cabin. They were none other than Bentham, Galdino, Mikita, Zala, Marianne, Buggy, and Alvida.
"Sit down! I will tell you our next moves."
All six of them nodded and sat down.
Liam raised his head at Mikita and said.
"Before Usopp should have already told you that we will be facing Marines, right? But, you might not know the true scale of this attack."
"Let me give you a reference. Marines are sending forces capable enough to hold down a Yonko Crew and if they are serious, even destroy a Yonko crew."
"What?"
Everyone except for Straw Hats shouted in shock.
Buggy began to shake in fear as he asked.
"Admirals are coming. How many?"
"Two!" Liam raised his fingers and spoke.
"Two?"
Buggy lost light from his eyes and almost lost his soul.
"Tch! You are still a coward." Luffy clicked his tongue and didn't forget to insult Buggy.
On the other hand, Buggy got enraged by his words and grabbed his collar with his separated limbs.
"You idiot, do you have any idea what the attack of Two Admirals means? They can easily obliterate us. What kind of mess did I get involved in?"
"Humph! I can take down an Admiral." Luffy pushed him away and folded his arms in front of his chest.
"But, if we win, we can reach the rank of Emperor. We will have both prestige and power."
Liam words instantly attracted Buggy's attention. Although he was a coward, he would do anything to achieve a greater reputation.
His words not only inspired Buggy but also to other members.
"But, can we really win against Admirals?" Zala asked.
"Don't worry about Admirals. Luffy and I will handle them. Your opponent will be different."
Liam pointed at the map and said.
"There are three parts that we need to focus on. First is the Gate of Justice. It can be opened from the other side and a large number of Marine Ships can easily arrive in Enies Lobby through there."
"But since Marines have already sent a large portion of their forces, they won't dare to send more. Even Buster Call only has Five Vice Admirals at most."
"So, our battlefield will be this middle section of the Enies Lobby."
"But, there seems to be a gap between these two sections, right? How are we going to reach there?"
Robin asked.
"Simple! We will send Sanji inside. With his Lightning Speed, he can easily speed-blitz those guards and open the Main Gate."
"After that, we just have to make sure that our ships stay away from the Battlefield which means we will need to distract the Marines. And, we can do this by simply destroying two parts of the Enies Lobby."
Liam answered.
And, he pointed at a long bridge and a massive tower.
"This is a Bridge of Hesitation and this is the Tower of Justice. Sanji will take Luffy to the Bridge of Hesitation and Luffy will begin to use his Gear Third to break down that Bridge."
"Usopp, Robin, Franky, Mikita, and Zala will go to Tower of Justice. Spandam lives inside the Tower of Justice and right now, only two powerful people are guarding that place."
"But, all of you should have enough strength to take down those two people. Franky and Robin can decide on how they want to take their revenge while Mikita and Usopp will focus on destroying the Tower of Justice."
"Surely, it will lead the Marine Admirals to find us as soon as possible. Kizaru will go to stop Luffy or Usopp and Mikita. Since Luffy is closer to them, he can easily reach in front of Kizaru and fight him."
"Unlike Kizaru whose Awakening is still a mystery, Kuzan can change his surroundings with his Awakening. So, I will fight Kuzan in the middle of Enies Lobby."
"Sanji, Zoro, and our main crew will fight Vice Admirals and some Rear Admirals near the middle while our Fleet will focus on holding down the other marines such as Commodore, Captains, and Marine Soldiers."
"Remember, in this battle, Luffy and I will not reveal our Conqueror Haki early on. So, that means you have to take down Marines with your strength."
"After we take down the marines, Franky will repair the ships if necessary, and then, with the help of Coup De Burst, we can escape."
"So, what do you think of my plan?"
Hearing his entire plan, the ship was pretty much silent for a moment until Luffy broke the silence with his laughter.
"Hahaha! Liam, you are so amazing."
"Indeed! You have pretty much planned it all. No wonder, you asked me to install Coup De Burst into our ships. But, these ships might not be able to hold that much pressure."
"They will easily break." Franky spoke with a serious tone.
"Don't worry about this! After we settle with the Marines, we will make Buggy and Mikita new ships with Treasure Adam Tree Wood. As for our ship, it is a bit unique."
"I will explain it to you later."
Franky didn't understand the uniqueness of their ship but he still nodded. On the other hand, Liam's words silently touched Buggy and Mikita's heart.
After all, it costs hundreds of millions of Berries to buy Treasure Wood.
"But Liam, if I remember correctly, there will be three Vice Admirals, Six Rear Admirals, Ten Commodores, Twenty Captains, and Six Thousand Marines."
"How will we fight them?" Robin asked.
"What? So many?" Buggy knew that the forces marine would send might be extraordinary because of the presence of the Admiral, but he never considered the true scale of this force.
Now, hearing the total numbers, almost freaked him out.
"I can handle the Vice Admiral." Zoro spoke
"I can do what this moss head can do and even faster." Sanji also spoke without backing down.
"But, what about the third Vice Admiral? Who will fight him?" Nami asked. Frankly, she knew she didn't have enough power to face a Vice-Admiral.
Similar to her, others might also not have enough strength to face a Vice Admiral.
But, one of them had a pretty good confidence in facing a Vice-Admiral.
Robin's eyes trembled a little as she clenched her soft fists and said.
"I can do it. I will hold off the vice-admiral."
She didn't have the confidence to defeat the Vice-Admiral. But, with her newly enhanced power, she knew that she would be able to face off against a Vice Admiral.
"Robin!"
Everyone except Liam and Luffy looked at her in surprise.
"I think I can do it. I have awakened Observation Haki and my strength has grown as well. I can use those shells to fight a Vice Admiral." Hearing Robin's words, Usopp also shouted.
He didn't know where he got his courage from but he knew that he couldn't back down when Robin would have to face a Vice Admiral.
This time, everyone looked at Usopp from different perspectives. Straw Hats knew just how much of a coward Usopp was so it was surprising to see this.
While Straw Hat Fleet was surprised that Usopp had already awakened Observation Haki.
Except for Buggy and Alvida, they knew just how weak Usopp was. So, it was an absolute surprise for them that he could awaken Observation Haki and they couldn't.
Suddenly, a small whirlpool of sand appeared in the middle and Vivi who was usually silent spoke.
"Let me face the Vice Admiral. I have Logia Fruit. I might have a chance in defeating a Vice Admiral."
