Chapter 925: The War Begins! Tower Defense Game Level 1: Spell Trap!
Under the command of Kaido and Big Mom, the 20,000-strong Pirate Alliance fleet surrounded Cake Island tightly, and then a cannon shot sounded, marking the beginning of the battle.
The Beasts Pirates were divided into three teams, two of which were led by the "Fire Disaster" Jin and the "Drought Disaster" Jack, with a number of Flying Six and Big Bosses. The team had about 4,000 people, and attacked Cake Island from the northeast and northwest with a "double-wing" force. Kaido himself led the remaining 2,000 pirates to attack from the north;
The Big Mom Pirates were divided into five teams, four of which were led by the "Four Dessert Generals" and had several ministers. The teams had more than 2,000 people and attacked Cake Island from the east, southeast, south, and southwest. Big Mom herself led 2,000 pirates and launched an attack from the west.
"Little guys, charge for me!!!"
“Ohhhh!!!”
"Kill them!"
“Kill, kill, kill!!!”
From eight directions, 20,000 people, with ferocious faces and waving swords and guns, rushed towards the warm and peaceful Cake Island. Shouts filled the sky and artillery fire flew.
But soon, the pirates discovered something wrong. There was not a single person on the Cake Island, which was supposed to have tens of thousands of residents!
For a moment, the guns fell silent, the swords stopped swinging, and the shouting gradually faded.
At this time, in the big castle in the center of the island, a group of magicians have gathered, surrounding the magic sand table projected by the "Eye of Exploration", discussing the next battle plan.
"They have begun their attack!"
Irene, who was sitting on the throne, asked, "Have all the irrelevant people been moved out?"
"Don't worry, there are only two kinds of people on the island now, pirates and wizards!" Kira smiled faintly.
The war is between pirates and wizards, so ordinary people should not be involved, so they were prepared to send irrelevant people away from Cake Island early on.
So how do you transfer? Of course, you use space magic!
Use magic perception to lock onto all the humans on the island who have no magic power, then cast 'space teleportation' on them and transfer them to the small island on the border of the Torrant Sea.
After getting the confirmation, Irene nodded with satisfaction: "Then let's get started, the first line of defense of Cake Island!"
"I understand!" Felide responded, and activated the magic power in his body to simultaneously activate the more than 3,000 spell traps he had spent a day carving on the island!
Suddenly, purple invisible cages appeared all over the Cake Island, and then words appeared:
"You can only leave when only one person is able to move! Current number of people: XXX"
Inside the castle, Gray looked out the window at the purple spells rising outside and couldn't help but exclaim, "This kind of magic is really a weapon of war!!"
Felide remained humble: "It's also thanks to the fact that there are no humans or demons in this world who can use magic barrier particles!"
On Cake Island, many pirates looked at the purple transparent barrier rising around them, their faces filled with astonishment: "What is this?"
"Only one person can leave? Are you kidding me?" A rough-looking pirate shouted, raised the Hundred Forged Sword in his hand, and chopped it down hard at the barrier...
clang!!!
A powerful reaction force came from the barrier under the sword, which made the extra pirate retreat several steps. The Hundred Forged Sword in his hand flew out of his hand and fell to the ground with a "clang".
"This barrier is so hard!!" The extra pirate showed horror on his face and immediately suppressed his contempt.
"Hey, hey, hey...you're not? You can't see through this??"
"Tsk! Come and try if you're brave enough! If you can cut it through, you'll be awesome!"
“Just give it a try!!”
Ding! Clank! Clank!
“Ah?! How could this be…?!”
"Haha, you're still laughing at me? You're the same!"
“Stop… stop talking! I just twisted my hand… it hurts!!”
"Are you an idiot?! You can't even control this much strength?! I really can't do anything with you~ Let me see..."
"These two are so disgusting... I don't want to stay with them for even a moment!!"
A similar situation (referring to the inability to break the magic barrier) occurs in every magic trap on Cake Island. No matter swords, guns or cannons, they are unable to destroy it!
Less than five minutes after the two pirate groups arrived on the island, they encountered the first obstacle.
"What on earth is this? Is it the Barrier Fruit?!"
"I don't remember the Barrier Fruit having this ability..."
"No, no matter whether you chop with a knife or shoot with a gun, you can't penetrate this barrier!"
After many unsuccessful attempts, a minor member of the Beasts Pirates could only seek help from the team leader.
"Get out of the way and let me do it!"
A small captain who led a hundred pirates strode forward, added Armament Haki to the blade in his hand, and slashed hard at the strange purple barrier in front of him...
But it was like nothing!!
"Eh?! Can I come over?? Could it be that..."
The team leader thought about it, walked back into the ritual, removed the Armament Haki from the sword, and chopped down again. This time the barrier did not move at all. He added Armament Haki again for the third time, and the result was the same as the first time.
"It seems that this barrier can . It doesn't matter..."
The extras were embarrassed: "But Captain, we don't know how to use Armament Haki!!"
"Oh no! I actually forgot this..." The team leader looked embarrassed, but quickly realized that it was not his fault, so why should he be embarrassed?
So he changed his mind and yelled at his subordinates: "I told you to practice well, but you didn't listen! You are useless at the critical moment now, how can you survive in the pirate group in the future?! When the bosses blame you, what can I say to speak for you?!!"
The group of extras were so timid that they dared not say a word and kept their heads down while being scolded silently.
After cursing for a long time, the team leader finally stopped, panting, and said helplessly: "Brother Jack has given the order to attack, I have to go! There is no other way, I can only go by myself now!"
" Listen carefully, I'm leaving now! You only have two choices now. Either comprehend the Armament Haki now, or do as I said above and fight until only one person is left!!"
After saying that, the team leader walked towards the depths of Cake Island without even looking back, with greed in his eyes.
Before the battle, Big Brother Jack told them that Boss Kaido's original words were, "There are countless treasures on Cake Island. In this operation, whatever you grab will be yours."
The extras who stayed behind looked at each other, all with confused expressions.
"Really?! You want us to kill each other?! There are dozens of people here!!"
"Instead of defeating the enemy, they started fighting with their own people. This is too ridiculous!"
"That's right...only a fool would do that!"
"But we can't just sit here and wait, or else the big brothers will settle accounts with us after the battle, right?"
"How about... let's give it a try. It says here that only one person can leave. Maybe it means that as long as the others temporarily lose their combat effectiveness, it will be fine, right?"
"Well... okay, then we'll just... ahhh!! You actually launched a sneak attack?!"
"Didn't you just agree?"
…
"Those who know Armament Haki can pass, but those who don't can't?"
"What exactly is this? Some kind of devil fruit ability? Why is it so weird?"
"Won't our forces be divided in this way?!"
"Brother Katakuri, didn't you see this trap before?"
"I saw it, but can you react? If I jump away by myself, who will lead you out of a trap of unknown danger?"
Everyone was stunned, for they knew that their brother, this cadre, had chosen to stay in order to protect them.
Although in terms of the result, it doesn't matter whether he stays or not, but in their hearts, it's still different whether he does it or not, whether he stays or not!
Apparently, the situation of being trapped in a ritual trap also occurred in the Big Mom Pirates.
However, compared to the Beasts Pirates, they don’t seem to be worried about this trap, because every team in this operation carries a huge mirror.
"Bree, how are you doing?"
Mirror world.
Brulee led hundreds of Big Mom's elite pirate team and ran quickly in the passage. Their goal was to sneak into Cake Island through the mirror and collect all the treasures that Big Mom cherished to prevent Kaido's men from snatching them away in the chaos.
Especially the red historical texts, which are the most important and must not be stolen or copied by anyone!
In fact, Brulee had already taken action with her men several days ago, but in the previous battle between the Big Mom Pirates and Irene's gang, Selene discovered that there were people with space abilities among the members of the Big Mom Pirates, so she set up the magic of "space folding" around the entire Cake Island.
This magic can make all the alien spaces within the scope of Cake Island, including the mirror world, be in an extremely chaotic state, unable to be invaded in any form. Now, the space magic that protects Cake Island from invasion by alien spaces has disappeared, so they can sneak in.
However, they had entered the mirror world before the war and had been searching for more than ten minutes, but still to no avail. They were extremely anxious: "No! Apart from the mirror we brought to the island this time, there is not a single mirror on the entire Cake Island!!"
"How is this possible?! Could it be that your ability has been exposed?"
Hearing Brulee's voice coming from the mirror, the four leading generals and the other brothers and sisters all frowned: "Even if that's the case, how can it be so easy to destroy all the mirrors on the island?!"
"Brother Katakuri, what should we do next?" Brulee's voice came from the mirror.
Before the attack, Big Mom handed over the overall command of the operation to Katakuri, and she herself was responsible for the killing, so now these 10,000 pirates are all obeying his orders.
"If you can't find the mirror to the treasure room, just ignore it for now. We can talk about this later."
Katakuri thought for a moment and gave the order, "There is a problem with our attack now. We must split up our forces. First, help bring those trapped on the island into the mirror world and let them advance towards the island from there!"
"I understand. I'll just..."
“…Bree?…What’s wrong, Bree?? Bree?!!”
After calling many times but getting no response, Katakuri immediately became worried and couldn't help but shouting at the mirror: "Brulee!! Can you hear me?! Answer me now!!!"
Unfortunately, the mirror in front of me was eerily quiet, without any sound coming out of it.
"Damn it! What the hell happened?!" Katakuri's eyes were terribly gloomy, and his powerful domineering aura was instinctively released, shocking the thousands of people present.
Due to the sudden loss of contact with Brulee, the team led by the four generals, who had been in contact before, now became headless flies. They could only divide their forces according to Katakuri's previous arrangements, letting the elite part continue to advance towards the island, while the other part stayed where they were and waited for Brulee's mirror world passage.
However, as the battle line advanced, the pirates of the Big Mom Pirates, who were very familiar with Cake Island, noticed something was wrong.
"Is this an illusion? Why does it feel like Cake Island has... become bigger?"
