Eight days later.

Outside the Calm Belt, the Grand Line.

A super-large fleet is staying here at the moment.

The number of its ships even exceeds 400, and there are many peak sea fighters.

The number of its soldiers has exceeded 80,000.

The scale of the mobilization has not been seen for dozens or hundreds of years.

Even the Battle of Et-Wol back then, or the earlier West Sea God Valley.

Perhaps the number of strong people will not be less than this time, or even more.

But the scale of the fleet and soldiers is definitely not as large as this time.

About 80% of the fleet are naval warships, and the remaining 20% ​​are from the World Government.

The fleet sent by the World Government consists of more than 40 ships.

Located on the left wing of the entire fleet.

In addition to the soldiers, there are also a large number of CP agents in black suits, and three groups of 15 CP0 members.

Each CP0 team has a captain who is at least a candidate general, and under his command are four elite lieutenant generals.

In other words, the three teams sent out by the Five Elders are equivalent to three candidate generals and twelve elite lieutenant generals.

It is also a force that cannot be underestimated.

------

"Marshal Zhan Guo, you can set off!"

Coming here with the three CP0 teams.

is Spandine, the commander of the previous CP9 and Spandam's father.

He was specially appointed by the Five Elders to come here as a military supervisor. After all...

The retreat of the advance fleet before made them very dissatisfied.

"Marshal Zhan Guo, give the order to start!"

"Master Five Elders, but waiting for our victory!"

On the flagship navy steel battleship, Spandine's face was full of gloom.

Since Spandam was assassinated on Judicial Island, he has been investigating who did it.

Although no definite results have been found so far, more and more indirect intelligence points to the organization of King's Landing.

After all, at almost the same time, three members of CP9 in Alabasta and four members in the Seven Waters City disappeared inexplicably.

And in both places, there are traces of King's Landing.

This makes Spandane doubt whether King's Landing was responsible for the death of his son Spandam?

So, this mission is said to be designated by the Five Elders, but in fact...

He asked the Five Elders for it.

Just to annihilate King's Landing personally, capture its leader, and torture the cause of death of his son Spandam.

Although Zhan Guo was very unhappy with Spandane's command in a tone of command.

But there is no way, who made this guy the military supervisor?

And he was appointed by the Five Elders himself.

Immediately, Zhan Guo had no choice but to order the departure.

Soon after...

The huge fleet broke into the Calm Belt.

------

The entire fleet had more than 80,000 people.

At this moment, all nerves were tense and ready for battle at any time.

After all, no one knew when and where King's Landing would attack.

For King's Landing, except for Spandine, no one in the entire fleet would underestimate them.

"How is it, have you found any trace of King's Landing?"

"No, the alert warships outside the fleet did not find the existence of the King's Landing fleet at all."

Hearing Zhan Guo's question, Lieutenant General Jonathan, the commander of the G8 branch who was specially transferred to command the fleet, shook his head.

Although Jonathan's strength is the bottom among the lieutenant generals, it is undeniable that his fleet command and naval combat capabilities are absolutely outstanding in the entire navy.

Otherwise, Zhan Guo would not have specially transferred him here.

It has been 3 hours since entering the Calm Belt.

King's Landing still did not appear, but this made Jonathan's expression more solemn.

"Marshal, I have a bad feeling!"

"What did you find?"

Zhan Guo asked.

"Marshal, we are now deep in the doldrums, and the fleet's speed is even less than three knots!"

"Do you know what this means?"

"This means that once King's Landing launches an attack, even if we want to retreat, we can only retreat at a speed of two or three knots, which will take a full three hours!"

"And I don't think that King's Landing's fleet is only this speed, after all..."

Speaking of this.

Jonathan looked back at the island of the steel battleship he was on.

Zhan Guo suddenly realized.

Yes, these steel battleships were bought from King's Landing, and the cruising speed can be as high as more than 20 knots, and the maximum speed can even reach 30 knots.

AndThis speed is the same even in the doldrums.

Because it does not rely on sails to drive.

"So, you mean..."

"The reason why it is still calm after three hours in the doldrums is because..."

"King's Landing wants to wait until we go deeper before taking action?"

Zhan Guo suddenly widened his eyes.

"Not good!"

"Send out all the alert ships immediately, and keep absolute surveillance of at least ten nautical miles around the fleet!"

Zhan Guo suddenly shouted.

But it was too late.

A large number of shells streaked across the sky and slammed into the left wing of the joint suppression fleet.

Even one warship was directly hit, and the horrific explosion directly blew the warship into two sections.

At the same time, many warships were damaged due to near misses.

"Jonathan, it seems that you guessed it right, what should we do next?"

King's warships could not be seen at all.

This means that they are at least attacking from a distance of 10 nautical miles from the fleet.

At the same time, looking at the number of shells...

If we estimate based on the four steel battleships purchased by the navy, there are at least 20 ships.

What Zhan Guo doesn't understand is how they guide the bombardment and calibrate it at a distance of about 10 nautical miles?

Could it be that there are traitors in the joint suppression fleet who are providing guidance for the bombardment of King's Landing?

Although he has some doubts, there is no time for Zhan Guo to confirm it now.

He had to ask Jonathan to see if there is any way to solve this disadvantage.

"Marshal, the only way at present is to let Admiral Kizaru go out and find the King's Landing fleet as quickly as possible along the bombardment."

"Even if we can't defeat them, we must prevent them from continuing the bombardment."

"Otherwise, our entire fleet will be here and swallowed up by King's Landing bit by bit."

Hearing this, Zhan Guo nodded.

Then he immediately took out the Den Den Mushi and called a vice admiral on Kizaru's ship.

There was no other way. If he called Kizaru directly, he would most likely not get through.

Sengoku had to settle for the next best thing and deployed a vice admiral on Kizaru's ship.

He was specifically responsible for communication and transmission...

Soon, just a hundred meters away, on another steel battleship.

A golden light shot up into the sky, and then headed towards the direction where Junlin's shells had just come from...

Across the sky.
