CHAPTER 103
While he was eating happily, a pirate suddenly rushed in. Seeing Sabera blissfully enjoying the food in front of him, he immediately covered his mouth and quietly waited outside the restaurant.
Two hours later, Sabera finally looked at the empty table with lingering satisfaction and walked out of the restaurant.
Seeing Sabera come out after finishing his meal, the subordinate waiting at the door quickly reported the newly received news:
"Boss!" "Captain Earl Jones sent a message." "We are to immediately head to Lion King Island to defend it!"
Hearing it was Earl Jones' order, Sabera's originally somewhat lazy expression instantly turned serious.
"Prepare the ship immediately!" "We're leaving now!"
In the lush forest, a middle-aged man with long arms and a short stature was happily eating freshly picked fruit.
"Hihihihaha! This is the life I want!"
While he was happily letting out joyful laughter, one of his executives suddenly appeared in front of him with a serious face and reported:
"Lord Guillaume!" "Captain Jones has given the order for you to lead your pirate crew to Lion King Island for defense."
Hearing his subordinate's words, Guillaume's mouth immediately stretched into a wide grin.
"Hihihihihi!" "Little ones! Let's go!"
With Guillaume's command, the Longarm Pirates he led immediately boarded their pirate ship and set off toward Lion King Island.
At Lion King Island, Earl Jones, after receiving news of the three's departure, had an exaggerated smile on his lips.
At the same time, the Rocks Pirates had already gathered together.
"Hahahahaha!" "Little ones! Let's take Earl Jones' dog head and become the masters of this sea!"
Hearing Rocks' arrogant laughter, the Rocks Pirates crew screamed fanatically and sailed toward Lion King Island.
As the Rocks Pirates' flags flew in the waters of Lion King Island, the Lion King Pirates soon received the news.
Lion King Island, Lion King Castle.
Earl Jones looked at the intelligence in his hand, his eyes suddenly becoming extremely terrifying. He smashed the golden armrest beside him into powder and growled at his confidant:
"How long until the Rocks Pirates reach Lion King Island?"
Earl Jones' confidant, seeing the other party so angry, cautiously answered:
"At their current speed, it should take about seven days."
Hearing this time frame, Earl Jones' mood improved slightly.
Because the islands guarded by Aynes, Sabera, and Guillaume could reach here in time if the three sailed at full speed.
"Notify Sabera, Aynes, and Guillaume to sail at full speed!" "I want to see them here in six days." "Also, notify all Lion King Pirates crew to return to defend Lion King Island immediately." "I want to make the Rocks Pirates come and never leave!"
With Earl Jones' orders given, he walked out of Lion King Castle. He was going to personally deploy the defenses of Lion King Island, trying to defeat the Rocks Pirates with the smallest possible cost.
Seven days later, on the Gibeku no Tsurugi, the executives of the Rocks Pirates gathered on Rocks' flagship. At this moment, the outline of a large island had already appeared in the distance.
Seeing the outline of Lion King Island, excitement appeared on Vilin and the others' faces.
"Hahahahaha!" "We've finally reached Lion King Island!" "I believe this victory will definitely belong to our Rocks Pirates!" "Jie hahahaha!" "My long sword is already starving!"
With waves of demonic voices resounding at the bow, everyone's gazes fixed on the island ahead.
After seeing the outline of Lion King Island, the Gibeku no Tsurugi immediately slowed down to wait for the fleet behind.
Soon the Rocks Pirates ships gathered together, forming a medium-sized fleet that mightily advanced toward Lion King Island's port.
Watching the island ahead gradually become clearer, Rocks couldn't help letting out excited laughter.
"Hahahahaha!" "The island in front of us is Lion King Island!" "In another ten minutes, we should enter their cannon range." "Next, it's up to you, Vilin." "We're the only ones here with a Devil Fruit capable of wide-area attacks."
Seeing everyone around him looking at him, Vilin readily agreed.
"Hahahahaha!" "Leave the enemy's cannonballs to me to block!"
Vilin looked at the island in front of him, also looking forward to this battle.
Because if the Rocks Pirates could kill Earl Jones, they would become the sole overlord of the second half of the New World.
In a few more years of development, he could use the Rocks Pirates' power to take down that monster Blite.
This would also be more beneficial for the Aitrias Pirates' growth.
Ten minutes later,
everyone could already vaguely see the arrangements at Lion King Island's port.
Vilin stood at the bow, carefully observing the island in front of him.
Soon he discovered the opponent's tight firepower deployment.
Although the opponent's firepower was very dense, it posed no threat at all to him with the Mori-Mori Fruit.
At the highest floor of Lion King Castle, the high-ranking members of the Lion King Pirates were currently sitting in the top-floor office, discussing how to deal with the Rocks Pirates.
They looked at the fleet of thirty large pirate ships outside the port flying the Rocks Pirates flag, a trace of wariness flashing in their eyes.
Because the total number of elite pirates on Lion King Island plus those brought by Aynes, Sabera, and Guillaume did not exceed two thousand.
Most of the Lion King Pirates' forces were dispersed to guard other islands.
In the port, more than a thousand Lion King Pirates crew were gathered.
They were all on high alert near the cannons, waiting for the Rocks Pirates to enter their firing range.
At the top floor of Lion King Castle, Earl Jones, constantly observing the Rocks Pirates' movements, looked out through the floor-to-ceiling glass at the distant sea. He soon saw the fleet flying the Rocks Pirates flag rapidly charging toward Lion King Island's port.
At this moment, the Den Den Mushi in his arms suddenly let out a "Buru buru" ringing sound.
It rang only a few times before Earl Jones answered.
Soon an urgent voice came from the Den Den Mushi:
"Captain Jones!" "The Rocks Pirates have entered our firing range!" "Should we open fire?"
