Chapter 199: Are You Deaf!?
On the surface of North Blue, the colossal 'World Patrol Ship' North Blue Cross Star was docked.
The newly appointed Vice Commander of the Holy Land Guard Legion, 'Klaymiller', looked rigid.
His gaze was fixed on the relatively miniature warship in front of the North Blue Cross Star.
It was a warship shaped like a cola bottle—it stood athwart the path of the North Blue Cross Star, blocking the latter's way.
And Klaymiller naturally recognized this ship.
"Kuroyagi (Black Goat)..."
He knew this was the warship of the Marine Headquarters Admiral Candidate—'Kuroyagi' Roy Amos.
In fact, the biggest reason Klaymiller could be promoted to the new Vice Commander of the Holy Land Guard Legion was that the former Vice Commander, 'Vicious Tongue' Tholas, died at the hands of the other party during the joint military exercise.
But precisely because he knew the other party's identity, he was puzzled.
"Is this guy crazy?"
He muttered.
Clearly a guy with a promising future, why block the way of a Celestial Dragon?
But just then...
Cough cough...
Klaymiller saw a tall, burly man taking a bite of the burger in his hand, walking out from the cabin below.
"Munch-Munch Fruit · Voice Amplification."
His voice pierced the sea breeze, resounding in Klaymiller's ears.
"I am Marine Headquarters Lieutenant Hans, ordered to convey the first notice here."
"Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral 'Kuroyagi' Roy is executing a classified mission in this sea area."
"This sea area has now been designated as a temporary restricted zone, forbidding any ships from entering or exiting."
"After three notices, if anyone still acts arbitrarily, our ship will exercise jurisdiction."
He issued such a voice.
"?"
Klaymiller almost doubted his hearing.
"Bastard!"
But the next moment, his face twisted instantly.
"Who do you think you are talking to?"
Finally confirming the other party's intention, he picked up the loudspeaker snail beside him without hesitation, his angry voice almost trembling: "Look clearly, you fools—this is the 'World Patrol Ship', the vehicle of the great Saint Thatcherz M. Pierre inspecting the nations!"
"Get lost immediately! Marines... are you going to disobey the World Government's order!?"
He roared, pointing to the cross star flag behind him.
But...
"Ha?"
He found that after hearing this, the Marines on that ship showed no fluctuation in expression.
Hans even casually picked his ear, then blew on his finger.
"Government or not, do you not understand human language?"
Then, he continued, "Second notice—I said... we are executing a classified mission here, so we need to blockade this sea area."
"It is true that your side is the World Patrol Ship and has the authority to temporarily mobilize Marine branches within World Government allied nations, but we are the direct unit of Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral 'Kuroyagi', not subject to your orders."
Hearing this, Klaymiller's eyes widened further, almost speechless.
But just then...
"Noisy."
A voice suddenly came from behind Klaymiller.
Then...
Thud! Thud!
Heavy footsteps came.
Next moment, a figure walked out from the cabin of the North Blue Cross Star.
It was a Celestial Dragon—that iconic bubble helmet was proof enough.
But unlike ordinary Celestial Dragons...
This Celestial Dragon wore pitch-black armor.
The armor was visibly special at a glance—there were many hollows on the armor, and 'Click click' sounds seemed to come from within continuously, as if gears and machinery were constantly running, cutting something.
Red smoke constantly emerged from the hollows, wrapping the Celestial Dragon entirely.
"Noisy! Noisy!"
At this moment, the Celestial Dragon seemed to have mania, gritting his teeth and growling, "Why is it so noisy?"
"Saint Pierre, it's like this, we have arrived at Mont Blanc Island—Zephyr and Edward Weevil are both on the island, but now we are blocked by Marine Headquarters' 'Kuroyagi', he is..."
Klaymiller turned around hurriedly, bowing respectfully to the Celestial Dragon.
His words were extremely humble.
Because he knew the identity of the man before him—an extremely special existence even among the Celestial Dragons he guarded and served.
The other party was a member of the legendary 'God's Knights'!
"I will make them get lost right away, send people to drive them away, please continue to rest..."
Klaymiller said.
But...
Bang!
His words were cut short.
Not because he didn't want to speak—but because he couldn't speak anymore.
BOOM!
Even the people closest to Klaymiller didn't see what happened clearly.
They only saw the deck where Klaymiller was, along with the hull below the deck and the sea below—everything was pierced by something in an instant.
A pitch-black hole even appeared on the pierced sea surface, as if something penetrated it directly to the seabed!
Klaymiller turned into a mist of blood directly, leaving not even a piece of flesh.
"Idiot—indeed a lower life form from the lower world."
At this moment, the God's Knight named Saint Pierre continued to emit that growling voice.
"Rest? I never rest—that is a symbol of weakness."
"And... the guy blocking my way, why ask him to get lost?"
He said, looking at the black warship blocking the way below.
"Marines? Kuroyagi?"
To a God's Knight, those were clearly names not worth mentioning.
So, he raised his arm wearing a black gauntlet.
That growling voice finally seemed to convey pleasure.
"Crush over, sink him."
"I want to see those trash daring to block my way become 'Painful'... Immediately!"
Words fell.
So...
"Yes yes!" (xN)
Responses came from North Blue Cross Star and all surrounding escort fleets in unison.
Klaymiller died.
But no one cared.
For these members of the Holy Land Guard Legion or Celestial Dragon Guard—it was nothing surprising for a great God's Knight, symbolizing the will of the World Government, to kill a bug casually.
Click!
Click!
So at this moment, accompanying the mechanical sound of turrets turning and the roar of engines.
All escort ships' cold muzzles aimed at the Black Loyalty.
And the massive hull of the North Blue Cross Star was about to... Crush toward that tiny pitch-black warship!
But...
"I said—No Passage Here."
A voice sounded.
The entire sea, and those countless warships ready to strike, seemed to be paused at this moment.
"You guys... Are You Deaf!?"
Words fell.
BOOM!
Black-red Conqueror's Haki erupted and dissipated abruptly.
Centered on the Black Loyalty, the entire sea began to solidify and cave in instantly.
The shock swept across all escort ships instantly.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Whether escort ships or North Blue Cross Star.
Whether gunners preparing to fire or commanders directing the attack, regardless of what they were doing a second ago, now their eyes rolled back, saliva flowed uncontrollably, and they collapsed paralyzed.
In just a moment...
"..."
The originally murderous sea surface was left with only silence.
On the entire North Blue Cross Star, only Saint Pierre stood alone.
"..."
He gritted his teeth, widening eyes staring at the ship below.
Click.
On that warship, the cabin door slid open silently.
A figure walked out.
On the deep black Marine coat, the stars dotting the cuffs fluttered in the wind.
Black-red Haki still lingered between his hair strands.
"Later you guys drive the ship to the island, help Ain and others evacuate the civilians, and pay attention to controlling public opinion by the way."
He tossed the Marine coat casually to Pharrel beside him while saying so.
"Yes, Chief."
After Pharrel nodded and left.
He strolled out, stepping onto the deck.
"Ah, sorry."
He looked at the Celestial Dragon above, tone flat. "Looks like your crew members fell asleep—so Lord Celestial Dragon, I will personally conduct the third notice."
"This ship is executing a classified mission here, this sea area will be temporarily blocked."
His gaze looked at the God's Knight, and the cross star flag behind him.
"So... please cooperate with my work."
