One Piece Demon Dragon

Chapter 274 The Crisis of Fishman Island
"Nami, can you create a huge current in the sky?" William looked up at the dark water above Murloc Island, thankful that he brought out Nami, a talented navigator, when he came to Murloc Street.

"It's not difficult to change the ocean current, but I must know the nearby terrain!" Nami said with some embarrassment in her heart.Although as early as in the East China Sea, Nami could make the evil dragons change the current to form a whirlpool according to the topography of the seabed, but the premise is that they must know the underground conditions around the seabed to do this perfectly.

Since the light in Murloc Street is already very dim, it is simply impossible to see the nearby underground clearly.And if you want to change the direction of the sea current on the bottom of the sea, you can't do it just by relying on them, unless the residents of Murloc Street are willing to help.

After all, this is the bottom of the sea, and even if they are not devil fruit capable humans, those humans who live on land are also handicapped.After all, the water is still the field that the murlocs and mermaids are good at, and the [-]-meter deep sea is the only advantage they have.If it wasn't for the protection of the deep sea, perhaps the Fishman Island would have been erased from the world by the world government.

And Trafalgar Law on the side didn't know that William was discussing with Nami in the castle space about creating sea currents to defend against the enemy, otherwise the aloof Trafalgar Law would definitely open his mouth in surprise up.Although the navigators on the great route are very good, there are very few people in the world who can change the direction of the current according to the topography of the seabed.

And at the same moment when William learned that the warships of the World Government were about to attack the Fishman Island again:

Under the Red Earth Continent, at a depth of 8000 meters in the sea, before entering the Fishman Island, one must enter a deeper and huge trench, but now a small-scale intermittent submarine volcanic eruption suddenly erupted above this trench .Although it was a small-scale submarine volcanic eruption, at least a dozen submarine volcanoes were affected for several kilometers.However, compared with larger-scale and larger-scale submarine volcanic activities that erupt occasionally, such small-scale submarine volcanic activities are already commonplace.

More than 50 warships of the world government that have been coated all stay nearby and do not dive further into the trench. Although this small submarine volcanic eruption will not affect the navigation of individual ships, it is necessary for a large number of fleets. It's dangerous.And the main reason why they didn't dare to dive into the trench rashly was because they were afraid of sudden deep-sea mudslides, which were terrifying disasters that could swallow large warships in an instant.

Because in the event of an emergency, a single ship can easily avoid it, but for the fleet, it is very likely to knock down other ships during the avoidance process.This is not on the sea, and you can use lifeboats to escape in case of shipwreck.

If the two ships collide seriously, the coating will be damaged in minutes, and even a hard warship will be crushed into scrap iron by the extremely powerful water pressure.Although the lifeboats in warships are also coated just in case, how many people can get on the lifeboats in time?And in this place full of giant fish, how many lifeboats will become the rations of these giant fish?
Sailing in this deep sea, the dangers encountered are much greater than those sailing on the sea surface of the great route.To be precise, sailing in the deep sea is itself in danger.

So for the sake of safety, the fleet of the world government can only wait for a while, and wait for the submarine volcanic eruption to stop before moving on.As long as they enter the trench in front, all the warships will dive smoothly to the deeper seabed, which is also where the fishman island is located.

As far as the world government is concerned, this attack will definitely take down the Fishman Island in one fell swoop.After all, the previous attacks had already caused considerable damage to Murloc Island.Joining the world government's continuous economic and intelligence blockade on the Fishman Island, the Fishman Island has also been in a passive state.

Moreover, the scale of this offensive is not comparable to the previous few battles.

boom!
A striped fish with a body length of more than 20 meters was hit by a howitzer, and immediately rolled its eyes and sank to the bottom of the sea.In fact, this striped fish just approached these warships when it was preying. Perhaps it was ready to attack one of the ships when it sensed the food, but it was killed before it entered the coating.

It's just that this striped fish hasn't disappeared from everyone's attention. Another giant fish with a size of more than [-] meters has already snatched the striped fish away in one bite.

However, even giant fish with a body size of more than [-] meters are kept low-key here, otherwise they will become a meal for other even larger marine creatures in minutes.This is the daunting underwater world, full of terror everywhere.

Because this is a dark seabed, the sun can't reach such a deep seabed at all.However, the lights on these warships that dive into the sea will inevitably attract some fish and mistake these warships for food.Of course, most fish will choose to leave when they find that these warships are not food, but if they encounter some sea king-level creatures, they will really regard them as food.

In this depth of sea, the probability of sea kings appearing is several times that of the great route, almost no different from sailing in a windless zone.Although they have the technology provided by Vegapunk, the energy emitted by Hailou Stone cannot deceive all marine life.

The person who killed the striped fish before was Leo, the supreme commander of CP10.

In this operation, in addition to the 50 warships organized by the World Government, CP10 also dispatched almost all of its forces, including a total of ten ships including two submarines.This is a mercenary who went to Murloc Island to assist the World Government in the name of Don Quixote Sun's revenge, but the main purpose of the World Government is to capture the Murloc Island, and Don Quixote Sun's purpose is to kill the Straw Hats gang.

Although Wu Laoxing was a little reluctant at the beginning to allow outsiders to participate in this operation, but considering that this mercenary was appointed by the Tianlong people, even if they doubted their identities, they had no choice but to agree.

After all, when he was in Chambord Island before, the escort ship that Don Quixote Sun was riding was cut open by Sauron. If the world's noble Tianlongren, who is a domineering world, does not take revenge, he will lose face.Therefore, in order to protect the face of the Tianlong people, the entire Don Quixote family not only put pressure on the World Government, but also let Don Quixote Sun's subordinates participate in this operation.

"The activity of the submarine volcano seems to be about to stop! Get ready to move on, don't fall behind!" Leo carefully observed the activity of the submarine volcano, and found that it was not as violent as before.

However, Leo has never been to Fishman Island, so he doesn't know if there are other dangers under the trench.At least along the way, they have encountered two seabed turbulence and more than a dozen attacks by super giant fish.Therefore, he will not act rashly before the fleets of the world government act. As long as he follows these fleets, he is absolutely safe.

The submarine volcanic activity slowly stopped, and after about five or six minutes, one of the naval warships had sailed to the top of the trench first, and then the second and third warships were also slowly sailing forward.After all the warships entered the top of the trench, all the people found that there was still a dark abyss under the trench, or they were surrounded by darkness, and they couldn't tell the direction at all.

Because all warships are almost invisible to each other directly, they can only contact each other through phone bugs and faint light signals.

The dark and silent environment, unknown dangers, often make people nervous!Although they all knew that they would soon enter the range of Murloc Island, they would be lying if they said they were not nervous.

But to use Luffy's words: Only in this way can there be an adventurous atmosphere!

"All warships, continue to dive!" The commander-in-chief of this operation immediately ordered all the warships through the phone bug in his hand after all the warships entered the top of the trench.

If they had just entered the trench when the submarine volcano erupted, it is estimated that there is a high possibility that they will be swallowed by the debris flow from above the trench, but it is much safer now.But through the light, it can still be found that there is some turbidity in the sea water near the warship.

Of course, this safety is relative. After entering the trench, there are still many dangers.There might still be giant sea creatures appearing, and maybe there might be deep-sea currents. In short, before entering the sea area of ​​Murloc Island, it's not safe.

The entire fleet slowly entered the trench and dived toward a deeper seabed. Now they have dived to a depth of 9000 meters.This is the abyss of Haiti that ordinary submarines cannot dive into. If there is no coating technology, all these warships will be destroyed by water pressure.It was the discovery of this miraculous coating material on Chambord Island by human beings that enabled this deep-sea route that can connect the front and rear half of the great route.

"We are about to enter the range of Murloc Island, everyone pay attention!" The radio phone bug of each warship rang the command broadcast, and of course the fleet including CP10 also received this broadcast.

This is already a sea abyss close to [-] meters deep.

The sea water here is no longer icy cold. Compared with the sea water above, it is already a little warmer.Moreover, compared with the pitch-black darkness before, the soldiers' naked eyes also detected a faint light.

All of this indicated that they were about to enter the range of Murloc Island.
