Vic had used the 'Meteor Fall' ability from the system to attack the naval warship, causing the siege to end in failure.
Lieutenant General Douberman watched helplessly as the Freedom Pirates disappeared without a trace, as well as the heavily damaged fleets on the surrounding sea. His face immediately turned ashen." Damn it, what's going on? We were so close to sinking them. How did that bastard do this weird meteor shower?"! Could it be his ability again?"
Douberman was full of questions and even a little worried. The more abilities this kid displayed, the more shocking he was. If he was allowed to grow, the navy would probably have one more troublesome enemy in the future!
" Ahhh, save me, save me!"
"Put out the fire, don't let the fire reach the ammunition depot!”
" Jump off the ship, quickly jump off the ship, this ship is going to sink-"
The shouts of the navy soldiers could be heard all around. There were still hundreds of soldiers floating on the sea who had jumped off the ship to escape. Looking at the warship that had sunk into the sea, they all wanted to cry but had no tears.
" Rescue them immediately. Check the warships that can still sail. Prepare to return to Base G13." Lieutenant General Douberman's thoughts were interrupted by the cries in his ears. He wanted to get angry, but when he saw the sorry state of his soldiers, he had no choice but to suppress his anger and began to command his soldiers to participate in the rescue.
" How could this be..." Colonel Tona stood on the deck and looked at the disheveled naval fleet around him with a dumbfounded expression.
After five to six hours of struggle, the sky gradually darkened. Finally, all the surviving soldiers in the sea were rescued onto the less damaged warships.
After this battle, out of the eight warships in the navy fleet, two were sunk, four were seriously damaged, and two were slightly less injured. Compared to the loss of warships, fortunately, there were not many casualties.
In the end, everyone could only squeeze into the two warships with less damage, followed by the four warships with serious damage. The fleet slowly returned to Base G13.
On the other side, the Freedom Pirates who had escaped were still desperately sailing at full speed. Everyone could not help but feel relieved that they had survived the disaster.
" Vic..." Celia sat beside Vic's bed. She looked at the pale and unconscious Vic with a worried expression.
"Don't worry, Celia. Vic is just exhausted. Let him rest for a night!”Hawkins looked at the exhausted Vic lying on the bed and sighed softly. At that time, he thought that he was really done for this time!
If Vic hadn't created a meteor shower in the end, causing chaos in the navy, they would have had a chance to escape.
Hawkins looked at the sleeping Vic again, then walked out of the captain's cabin. As a navigator, he still had to guide the pirate ship to avoid entering dangerous reefs or whirlpool waters.
At dawn, Lieutenant General Douberman finally returned to Base G13 with the broken fleet. Even though he knew that the siege plan had failed, Lieutenant General Holfa, the commander of Base G13, could not help but change his expression when he saw the broken warships docked in the port.
The losses this time were too great. Almost half of the warships in the entire G13 base were damaged. In a short period of time, it was probably impossible to replenish the number of warships.
"What's going on, Douberman?!”Lieutenant General Holfa's face was filled with disbelief. He looked at the gloomy Doubman and asked," A meteor shower?! Are you kidding me?"
" I wish it was a joke too, but it was the meteor shower that stopped me…" Doubman's eyes were bloodshot." I want to know what happened too.! Why wasn't there any report of Steer Vic summoning meteorites?! Are you all idiots?!”
In the end, Lieutenant General Douberman got angry at Tona.
Colonel Tona was dejected in the face of the furious Lieutenant General Douberman. He could not raise his head after being scolded. In fact, even he was depressed. Wasn't Steer-Vic a natural-type Wood Fruit ability user?! However, what was going on with the meteor shower?
" This matter must be reported to the navy headquarters immediately. Also-" Lieutenant General Holfa frowned and looked at the severely damaged warships in the port." You must replenish the number of warships as soon as possible. Otherwise, Base G13 will not be able to take care of the patrol mission in the entire sea area!"”
" Don't worry, I'll apply to the Sengoku Marshal..." Douberman's expression turned even uglier. He gritted his teeth and said fiercely," Prepare the ship for me. I want to return to the navy headquarters immediately. This matter will not end just like this!"”
"Da da da…"
With that, Lieutenant General Douberman left with Major General Lance and Major General Kanpuri.
" What a headache..." Looking at the back of Douberman, Lieutenant General Holfa sighed and rubbed his forehead, looking exhausted." Ever since Gor D Roger was executed, because of the words that bastard said before he died, the whole world has become more and more restless!”
After passing through the Gate of Justice, Lieutenant General Douberman and his men only took a day to return to the navy headquarters.
As soon as he got off the boat, Douberman didn't even bother to rest. He walked towards the marshal's office with a gloomy expression.
Along the way, when they saw Lieutenant General Douberman walking over with a gloomy expression and a terrifying aura, the passing naval officers and soldiers all held their breaths and bowed to Lieutenant General Douberman quietly and properly. They looked forward and did not even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that they would become the victims of Lieutenant General Douberman's anger.
Lieutenant General Douberman ignored the generals who were saluting along the way and quickly walked past them.
" Huff huff…" When Douberman walked over, the officers who were saluting at the side all heaved a sigh of relief and quickly ran off to do their own things without looking back.
Douberman stood outside the marshal's room and knocked on the door.
" Come in-" The conversation inside stopped abruptly, and then came the dignified voice of the Sengoku Marshal.
When Douberman walked in, he realized that General Qing Zhi was also there.
" Ah la, Douberman, it's you…" Qing Zhi leaned against the sofa's armrest, one hand supporting his head as he looked at Douberman. His tone was as lazy as ever." Looking at your hurried appearance, you must have rushed all the way back to the headquarters from the North Sea!"”
"General Qing Zhi, Marshal of the Warring States Period!”Douberman stood at attention and nodded at Sengoku and Aokiji. He said with a gloomy expression," I will take full responsibility for the failure of this operation, but I request to lead the team to pursue the Freedom Pirates again. This time, I will definitely not let them escape!”
