Chapter 63: Roger, Chinjao, Redfield, Marines Shaken! Total Encirclement! (2)
The curly-haired Elder got emotional; they might as well just have a full-scale war!
After all, the Rocks Pirates weren't the only pirate crew in the world!
The recently emerging Roger Pirates were also an extremely talented crew!
The entire crew had been at sea for less than a year, with fewer than ten members currently, yet their total bounty exceeded 10 billion!
Their potential was terrifying!
The captain, Gol D. Roger, was also one of the Clan of D!
There were also some strong fighters on their ship.
If they could utilize the power of the Roger Pirates, they could cause huge trouble for Rocks!
Then there was the emerging figure with a bounty exceeding 2 billion, "The Aloof Red" Patrick Redfield!
"World Destroyer" Byrnndi World!
The 12th Leader of the Happo Navy, Chinjao!
These were all great pirates famous throughout the world!
However, under the prestige of the Overlord of the Sea, Rocks, these pirates appeared somewhat dim.
"What you say makes sense. The power of the pirates can also be utilized!"
"But there is no need for trash pirates; they would just be cannon fodder."
"We can have CP agents secretly notify the great pirates like Roger, Redfield, Byrnndi World, and Chinjao."
The bald Elder's eyes lit up.
Using pirates to wear down pirates was indeed brilliant!
It could also effectively reduce casualties for the World Government and the Marines, preserving their active forces.
There was no need to worry that these great pirates wouldn't come.
Although the Rocks Pirates' reputation was resounding, there were many ambitious pirates waiting for an opportunity!
Waiting for an opportunity to pull the Rocks Pirates off their horse and make a name for themselves!
They could use exactly this point!
"Good! Very good! Let's do it this way!"
The suit-wearing Elder couldn't help but nod.
The World Government, CP0, Marines, Army, Science Unit, top powerhouses from various Allied Nations, plus a bunch of eyeing pirates!
The Rocks Pirates were destined to fall at God Valley this time!
Especially Rocks and "The Most Heinous Criminal" Rono!
They would use the lives of these two to complete the sacrificial ritual of God Valley!
What a beautiful scene that would be!
...
Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
Steel Bone Kong had just received the call from the Five Elders and summoned the backbone of Marine Headquarters for a meeting.
The meeting room at this moment could hardly be called a meeting room; it was more like a hospital ward.
Every officer above the rank of Vice Admiral attending the meeting was wrapped in thick bandages.
Whether it was the elite Vice Admirals of the Headquarters or the monster rookies like Kuzan, Sakazuki, and Borsalino, they were all the same.
The most severely injured were Steel Bone Kong, Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr.
They had nearly been killed in the Gold City, so their injuries were naturally not light.
"Are those old bastards plotting something again?"
Garp, whose chest and abdomen were wrapped in bandages, stuffed rice crackers into his mouth while speaking grumpily.
The Gold City incident was clearly a good opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the Rocks Pirates.
But it was wasted by those useless Five Elders!
Garp became increasingly dissatisfied with the Celestial Dragons and even the Five Elders.
Regarding Garp calling the Five Elders "old bastards," Steel Bone Kong rarely didn't stop him.
He was also very annoyed with those old bastards.
"The Five Elders said they plan to destroy the Rocks Pirates at God Valley!" Steel Bone Kong said.
"Hmph, what's the point of saying that now!"
"The Rocks Pirates retreated unscathed from the Gold City incident and killed 19 Celestial Dragons!"
"The news was spread all over the world by the News King. Now the Rocks Pirates are famous and even more terrifying than before!"
"Many pirates are rushing like ducks to join the Rocks Pirates. Their strength has grown significantly again!"
Sengoku also spoke angrily, looking displeased.
After the fermentation of the Gold City incident, the Rocks Pirates were no longer just a pirate crew!
Having defeated the Five Elders plus the Marine Headquarters!
The world's attitude toward the Rocks Pirates was now that their existence was enough to challenge the rule of the World Government!
Even to overthrow the rule of the World Government!
Many powerhouses on the sea had joined the Rocks Pirates!
The Rocks Pirates were even more terrifying now than they were at the Gold City!
And this was without Sengoku even calculating the growth of that monster, Rono!
"That's right. After Rono joined, the Rocks Pirates' strength became too terrifying. The threat level has increased by more than one grade!"
"Now, even the Marine Headquarters plus the Five Elders cannot deal with the Rocks Pirates!"
Zephyr, who always valued benevolence and righteousness, frowned and said.
"Now the word 'Justice' of the Marines has been trampled underfoot by the Rocks Pirates!"
"Anyway, I won't trust those old bastards anymore!"
Garp said as he made to leave, too lazy to listen to nonsense.
"Garp, sit down!"
Steel Bone Kong scolded, and Garp had to force himself to be patient.
"After the last Gold City incident, I know you all have complaints, and what you say makes sense."
"To tell you the truth, I'm also a bit upset!"
"But this time is different; this time it's for real!"
Steel Bone Kong emphasized his tone and continued:
"The Five Elders said that God Valley will be the place where the Rocks Pirates are buried!"
"This time, besides the Marines and the World Government sending people!"
"The top executives of CP0, the deep-sea prison Impel Down, Enies Lobby, the Science Unit, the Commander-in-Chief of the Three Forces, and top powerhouses from some World Government Allied Nations will also come!"
Steel Bone Kong's tone was very solemn. clearly, he hadn't expected the Five Elders to mobilize so much power this time!
Almost all the forces that could be mobilized under the jurisdiction of the World Government were being used!
It seemed the Five Elders were serious this time!
Sure enough, after Steel Bone Kong finished speaking, the Marine officers present were stunned!
Even the eyes of Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr, who were very annoyed with the Five Elders, changed!
Such a grand scale?
Impel Down, Enies Lobby, the Science Unit, CP0, and the Army and Air Force other than the Marines—let's not talk about those for now.
These were all within the jurisdiction of the World Government, so they would naturally accept the World Government's deployment.
But even some Allied Nations of the World Government had to send top experts. It seemed this was really happening!
This could be a total war against the Rocks Pirates!
"Not only that, the Five Elders also plan to use the power of pirates to wear down the Rocks Pirates!"
Steel Bone Kong continued.
"Great pirates like Redfield, Byrnndi World, Chinjao, the Roger Pirates, and so on might all come!"
Hearing this, the high-ranking Marines took a deep breath!
A total encirclement!
This was the definition the high-ranking Marines gave to this operation!
The Five Elders, Marine Headquarters, CP0, Impel Down, Enies Lobby, the Science Unit, and even the power of pirates!
What the Rocks Pirates would face at God Valley would be a comprehensive encirclement from all sides!
