"What is it? Three warships on standby were sunk?”
As the commander of this operation, Zefa's face was as black as the bottom of a pot when he received the report. He clenched his fists tightly.
He grabbed the phone bug and asked in a deep voice,""What exactly happened?"
He had never expected that something would happen so quickly before the fleet he had deployed had even begun to enter the battle.
" A small number of people survived. According to their reports, they encountered a sudden storm and were unable to avoid it. The warships were overturned in the blink of an eye and blasted into the bottom of the sea…"
The phone bug mimicked a woman's expression, and it was very vivid.
On the other side of the phone worm, at the G-5 branch in the first half of the New World, Lieutenant General Ah He, who was in charge of guarding the fortress in place of the base commander Zefa, said in a deep voice.
In the great sea route where the weather was harsh and unpredictable, it was nothing new for naval warships to have accidents or even lose contact.
Not to mention the new world, which had an even harsher climate and was simply unfathomable.
At one moment, it might be calm, but the next moment, it would rain heavily, thunder, and storms. Such situations could be seen everywhere.
The most worrying thing was the situation that Major General Will and the others had encountered.
There were no signs in advance, and a huge storm came at any time.
You can't escape even if you want to.
However, three battleships that were dozens of nautical miles apart in three different directions had almost all met with accidents at the same time.
It was truly inconceivable.
He was even more suspicious.
"Is that so?"
" I understand." Zefa's expression was solemn." Immediately organize the nearby warships to rescue them."”
" I've already made arrangements…" Lieutenant General Ah He asked in a deep voice,"" Also, Zefa, I suspect that the pirates of the Giant Tribe are not simple. According to the intelligence of the Sierna Kingdom, they have been very cunning when bargaining with them over the ransom. They are different from the giants that we used to think were honest and straightforward. The Steel Skeleton General also values them very much…"
"It's possible that they were the ones who caused the warship to sink during the storm.”
As he spoke.
Lieutenant General He's expression had already become serious.
It was too much of a coincidence that three large-scale warships in three different directions had met with mishaps at once.
It made people suspicious.
However, if one of these pirates could really control the storm, it would be very alarming.
"Little crane, do you mean that among the pirates of the Giant Tribe, there might be a Devil Fruit ability user?”Zefa's eyes turned cold as he asked seriously.
" We can't rule out this possibility, but there are only less than two days left before the deadline for the exchange of hostages with the ransom agreed upon by the Kingdom of Sierna and these giant pirates. Time is too tight, and it's too late to send other fleets as reinforcements…"
Ordinary humans could become aptitude users. If the Giants were lucky enough to obtain some rare Demon Fruit, they could naturally become Demon Fruit aptitude users.
Lieutenant General Ah He didn't think that other than ordinary humans, the Giant Tribe couldn't obtain greater power.
The Giants were born with huge bodies and endless strength. If a Demon Fruit ability user really appeared, it would undoubtedly be quite troublesome.
Especially the ability to control the weather.
It was truly shocking and one had to be vigilant.
"Zefa, be careful!"
Lieutenant General Ah He reminded.
Although Zefa was very strong, it was hard to guarantee that no accidents would happen.
One had to know that the lifespan of the Giants was three times longer than that of ordinary humans. It could be said that they were born warriors.
To them, even if they were a hundred years old, they were still in their prime.
Just the joint attack of the two giant leaders of the Giant Soldier Pirates, Blue Ghost Tony and Crimson Ghost Brokey, decades ago was enough to easily penetrate a fortress, which was terrifying.
She felt that if a normal and talented person appeared in the Giant Tribe, it would definitely be a headache.
Just the lifespan of over 300 years was enough to kill generations of navy soldiers.
"The Giant Tribe's Demon Fruit ability user? It's a little tricky…"
Zefa muttered to himself.
However, he immediately relaxed his brows and said confidently,"Don't worry, little crane. You should know my strength very well. It shouldn't be too difficult to capture these fledgling pirates of the Giant Tribe.”
As a famous elite lieutenant general of the navy and one of the hot candidates for the next general, he was obviously confident in his own strength.
What he lacked was the corresponding " qualifications."
……
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
A sudden storm destroyed two cruisers and a large battleship, but it didn't cause any waves.
After Andre Ares gave him a small greeting gift, he did not wait for the opportunity to cause trouble.
The time agreed upon with the Sierna Kingdom arrived.
The huge Godzilla carried Apollo and slowly sailed into the Strom Sea.
He met Duke Duofree, the admiral of the Sierna Kingdom, on the sea.
The sky was gloomy and covered with dark clouds.
"Gulp! Is this a boat?"
"That's a giant turtle!"
"Is this the giant of Elbaf?”
"It's really exaggerated…"
" We're not even as big as their palms…"
He saw Andre Ares, Heldin, and the other Giant warriors standing on Godzilla.
Some of the soldiers of the Sierna Kingdom were a little flustered and broke out in cold sweat.
"Giant warriors, the ransom you asked for, 2 billion Bailey and a demon fruit, are all here…"
Duke Duffrey did not lose his composure. He took a deep breath and shouted at Andre Ares, who was leading the giant turtle Godzilla,""I hope you can release the detained prince and the other nobles first!”
"I'm sorry, but I prefer to pay first and then deliver the goods…"
Andre Ares looked into the cabin of the frigate.
At this moment, Haredin directly dragged the luxurious cruise ship over.
He grabbed the prince of the Sierna Kingdom.
"Ah, let me go…Duke Duffley, save me…Boohoo…"
The prince of the Sierna Kingdom was no longer as arrogant as he used to be. With a pale face and tears flowing down his face, he asked for help from Duke Dofry, the commander of his country's navy, as if he was on the verge of collapse."Hurry up and agree to their conditions. Otherwise, these demons will really kill us!”
"Your Excellency Giant, can you…"
Looking at Duke Duofuli, who was about to say something, Andrei Ares, who was standing there with his arms crossed, said,"I don't have the patience to waste time with you. Either you pay up first or the deal is invalid. We don't mind killing the hostage directly…"
"This…Alright, I hope you can keep your promise and ensure the safety of His Highness and the other nobles!”
Duke Duffrey's expression changed as he looked at the prince who was being grabbed by the ferocious giant next to Andre Ares. He could only agree to the prince's request helplessly.
He looked at Haredin, who could easily crush Prince Sierna with just a little force, and said carefully,""Sir Giant, please be careful and don't hurt His Highness!”
"That's right…"
Andre Ares nodded in satisfaction.
He turned to Galz, who was carrying a long-handled battle axe on his back and was full of heroic spirit, and ordered,"Galez, go check it out!”
"Alright…"
Galz's movements were agile as he leaped lightly.
It crossed a distance of dozens of meters and landed heavily on the frigate.
"Boom…"
For a moment, the surface of the sea surged, and the deck wailed. The entire frigate shook violently.
Many navy soldiers of the Sierna Kingdom were caught off guard and fell to the ground.
Galz's huge body stood there, making the soldiers of the Sierna Kingdom feel that the already gloomy sky had darkened. They were all panicking and fearful.
