Capítulo 104: Chapter 104: Rocks Takes Action
In the instant his life was threatened, he fled without hesitation, disregarding the naval fortress's fate.
"This guy actually escaped!"
Li Yuan did not expect the Army General to be so cowardly, running away so decisively. Before he could react, the general had already flown out of the G7 fortress, retreating further into the naval territory.
"Forget it, let him run!"
Li Yuan had no intention of chasing him down, wary of potential strong opponents lurking deeper within the naval territory.
"Since that's the case, this naval fortress doesn't need to exist anymore!"
With the general no longer holding him back, Li Yuan, a top-tier combatant, was fully unleashed. Walking across the battlefield like a grim reaper, every swing of his Seven Star Sword claimed hundreds, if not thousands, of lives. Their essence and blood were greedily absorbed by the sword.
Even naval vice admirals fell to a single strike from Li Yuan; no one could withstand his blade! In mere minutes, the naval forces within the fortress became sparse under Li Yuan's slaughter.
"Damn Tyrannosaurus Kaweh, he actually ran!"
Sengoku, who was battling Whitebeard, noticed Li Yuan's rampant killing spree and his face darkened instantly.
"Sengoku, you're distracted!"
"Quake Punch!!"
Seizing the moment when Sengoku's attention was on Li Yuan, Whitebeard's Bisento, imbued with powerful quake force, struck Sengoku's abdomen, sending him flying.
*Cough cough!*
"All navy personnel, retreat from G7 fortress!"
Sengoku, coughing up blood after being sent flying, immediately ordered the naval forces to retreat from the fortress.
"Jeeraharara, CP0 Deputy Chief? Just a bunch of rats living in the shadows, too weak!!"
Seeing Li Yuan's battle conclude, the Golden Lion also went all out, defeating CP0 Deputy Chief Wind Drake Carlo. Thus, the G7 naval fortress was completely overtaken and destroyed by pirates.
After the war, Li Yuan, Golden Lion, and Whitebeard returned to their pirate ship, voraciously devouring food to replenish their strength.
"Golden Lion, you were too slow; it took you such a long time to deal with that Wind Drake!"
While eating, Li Yuan couldn't resist teasing the Golden Lion.
"Bastard, you're the one who's too slow, your whole family is too slow!"
"I was just using that Drake as a whetstone. Didn't you see how quickly I defeated it once I went all out?"
The Golden Lion retorted, displeased by Li Yuan's remarks.
"But you still defeated your opponent slower than I did!"
Li Yuan continued while munching on sea king meat.
"Didn't you hear me? I said I wasn't giving it my all!"
The Golden Lion replied.
"However, you still defeated your opponent slower than I did!"
Li Yuan persisted.
"Damn it, why don't you mention Newgate? He couldn't even defeat the naval vice admiral Sengoku!"
Golden Lion exclaimed in frustration.
"Gurararara, Sengoku isn't just any vice admiral; he's stronger than those Army Generals."
Whitebeard laughed, taking a swig of his drink.
"That's right, the navy is indeed much stronger than the army, and Garp's fists are formidable too."
The Golden Lion added.
Overall, the navy was much stronger than the army, in both lower, middle, and high-level combat strength.
"Let's rest here for now. Once we're recovered, we'll head to the nearest G6 fortress to support."
Li Yuan suggested.
The reason for supporting G6 instead of advancing into G4 was to avoid being at the forefront and facing the navy's strongest attacks. Such risky endeavors were best left to Rocks.
"Indeed, supporting G6 isn't a bad idea."
"But we haven't heard any news of Rocks taking action yet. Who knows what he's planning?"
Whitebeard pondered.
"Who cares, eventually he'll have to act. Right now, he's probably assessing the navy's top-tier forces."
Golden Lion speculated.
"Yeah, if Rocks doesn't make a move soon, we should be cautious not to become navy targets."
Li Yuan advised.
"Jeeraharara, well said. If Rocks doesn't act, we won't exert ourselves either."
Golden Lion agreed with Li Yuan. Although they were under Rocks' command, capturing the G7 fortress was achievement enough. They wouldn't risk their lives for the Rocks Pirates unless Rocks personally entered the fray and succeeded.
"Admiral, sorry, we couldn't hold the G7 fortress!"
After retreating, Sengoku reported the situation of the G7 fortress to Admiral Black.
"Alright, I understand the situation, this isn't your fault."
"Next, head to the G6 fortress for support. After destroying the G7 fortress, Li Yuan and his crew will likely head there too."
Admiral Black, upon hearing Sengoku's report, responded helplessly.
As the navy admiral, he couldn't control the Army Generals. After all, it was the navy requesting assistance from the army this time, and as the admiral, he couldn't say much.
"Yes, Admiral!"
After hanging up the transponder snail, Sengoku ordered his subordinates to advance towards the G6 fortress.
In the G6 fortress, Vice Admiral Zephyr, Army General Hamadi Fisher, and CP0 Deputy Chief Serguen Kormy were stationed as powerful defenders. Army General Hamadi Fisher wielded the Logia-type Steam Fruit, while CP0 Deputy Chief Serguen Kormy possessed the Logia-type Mercury Fruit.
World Destroyer Wald, Violent King Branton, and Weather Queen Charlotte Linlin fought the navy for six days, resulting in a stalemate with neither side gaining the upper hand. Eventually, both sides agreed to cease their high-level conflict, allowing their subordinates to continue battling while they rested, prolonging the confrontation.
"Hahahahaha, looks like you guys aren't doing well, unable to take the G6 fortress after all this time!"
On the seventh day, as both sides prepared to resume their battle, Li Yuan, Golden Lion, and Whitebeard arrived at the G6 fortress with their fleet.
"Quit the sarcasm, if you're so capable, why don't you give it a try?"
Violent King Branton snapped, displeased, as his opponent was the Steam Fruit user Hamadi.
And he was a Muscle Fruit user; his opponent's refusal to engage in direct combat frustrated him.
"Of course, I'm more capable. We've already conquered the G7 fortress, and now we're here to support you."
Li Yuan smirked.
With the fall of the G7 fortress, the pirate forces gained momentum, and the battles among lower and middle-level pirates intensified.
As top-tier forces, the Rocks Pirates' officers engaged in fierce battles against the G6 navy fortress upon Li Yuan and his crew's arrival.
In the G6 fortress, besides the original top-tier defenders, Sengoku, who had been stationed at G7, also arrived.
Meanwhile, Wind Drake Carlo and Tyrannosaurus Kaweh had largely recovered from their injuries over the past two days and rejoined the battlefield. However, this time they switched opponents, fighting against Violent King and Charlotte Linlin instead of Golden Lion and Li Yuan.
Li Yuan faced another Army General, Hamadi Fisher, a Logia-type Steam Fruit user.
"This is my first time battling a Logia user; I hope you can withstand my strikes!"
Li Yuan, brimming with battle intent, addressed the Steam King Hamadi standing before him.
"Hmph, let's see if your body is as tough as your words!"
Hamadi replied expressionlessly.
The battle in the G6 fortress continued. However, this time, the battles were evenly matched, and both sides' top-tier forces had an unspoken agreement to pause after five days of intense fighting.
After a day's rest, they resumed the next battle. This cycle persisted for half a month before a significant change occurred.
The main shift was Rocks finally taking action!
"Wahahahaha, Black, come out and face me in battle!"
Rocks appeared in the sky, laughing wildly as he looked down at the G6 fortress below.
He knew that everyone was waiting for him to act, not just the navy but also his officers. If he didn't act, this war would drag on, ultimately resulting in a pirate defeat.
"Rocks, now that you've shown yourself, don't think you'll escape. Today, we're going to kill you!"
Black, Steel Bone Kong, Army General Sora, and CP0 Chief White Ghost. These four powerhouses immediately surrounded Rocks, giving him no chance to escape.
"Wahahahaha, let's see if it's me, Rocks, who kills you and cements my undefeated legend, or if I fall here today!"
Even when surrounded by four admiral-level opponents, Rocks showed no fear.
"Attack!!!"
In an instant, Black and the other four admiral-level powerhouses launched an assault, attacking Rocks together.
And Rocks engaged in a fierce battle with the four of them.
However, despite Rocks' formidable strength, he began to show signs of disadvantage under the four powerhouses' siege.
Two fists could hardly contend against four hands, let alone Rocks fighting four admiral-level powerhouses alone. Even though among the four, only Steel Bone Kong could be considered at the admiral pinnacle, with the others having their flaws, the numerical advantage was evident.
Rocks, who once maintained an undefeated record against three admiral-level powerhouses, was now being pushed back by four.
A single mistake could lead to an irreversible downfall.
Yet, even amidst the siege, Rocks persevered, using his immensely powerful Armament Haki to hold his ground.
