章節 135: Chapter 135
Garling fell into a tense silence, his thoughts swirling as he considered the recent turn of events.
As mentioned earlier, Garling thought Carnes had somehow narrowly managed to evade 'that' attack.
He didn't want to believe that the attack with such sheer force couldn't even touch him at all.
He found it hard to accept that Lord Imu attack had just barely scratched him.
However, doubts lingered in Garling's mind as he continued to contemplate his situation.
It was at this moment that the scout's voice broke pierced the air breaking his introspection.
"Reporting, Commander! The Gale Emperor Pirates are rapidly closing in on our position."
Garling couldn't help but mutter under his breath, frustration evident in his voice,
"Those guys!"
Ever since their last encounter, Garling's once unshakable confidence had eroded. He questioned whether he still stood any chance against Carnes, who appeared to be unharmed from that attack.
With every passing second, Carnes' imposing ship drew closer, now mere hundreds of meters away from the Marine battleship.
The elite commanders of Carnes' crew formed a formidable line at the front of their ship, poised for battle.
"Today truly is a fortunate day," Carnes declared, a sinister grin on his face.
"First, I got rid of both Linlin and Kaido myself, and now, Garling, you're here to meet the same fate."
"Give them my regards Garling, when you join them in the afterlife."
"Tsk tsk tsk... You guys really save me time."
Garling clenched his teeth in anger, feeling a profound sense of regret welling up within him after hearing what Carnes said.
Regret welled up within him, an endless cascade from the depths of his heart.
If only he had killed Carnes in God's Valley battle, perhaps everything would have unfolded differently. Alas, it was too late for regrets now.
"Justice will always prevail," Garling declared coldly as he drew his longsword from its scabbard.
"Puff..."
A mocking laugh escaped Carnes's mouth after hearing Garling's proclamation.
"Hahahahahaa....."
He couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Justice?" he chuckled.
"While the Marines may present themselves as champions of justice, their actions behind closed doors often mirror those of pirates and World Government.
Justice is a subjective concept, defined differently by each individual.
To the average person, justice means merely the eradication of evil and the promotion of good. What served their self-interest is constituted as justice.
If one sought to end their life, they are deemed evil in their eyes.
This so-called justice in truth, is self-centered, serving the interests of their own group."
"For World Government it means concentrating power within their own ranks and continue to rule the world."
Carnes wasted no more words and issued a straightforward command, his tone resolute.
"Kill them all. No one should leave this place alive."
With that, the battle between the Marine forces and the Gale Emperor Pirates was set to begin.
"As you say, Captain!" everyone shouted.
Tatsumaki took the lead, floating gracefully in the air, her presence commanding.
With a simple wave of her hand, a potent force enveloped all the Marine warships, bathing them in a vibrant green light.
In response to her movement, the massive Marine warships ascended into the sky, defying gravity itself, rising from the sea.
"Could that be Shiki's Devil Fruit power? No, it's different from the Float-Float Fruit."
Garling pondered aloud, his keen observation failing to pinpoint the source of Tatsumaki's powerful ability.
However, Garling wasn't one to remain idle. He refused to stay passive.
With a swift motion, he lowered his body and then using his legs to propel him, he launched himself skyward.
He used the longsword in his hand, and with a swift and powerful motion, he slashed it vertically downward, unleashing a devastating wave of sharp sword energy.
