CHAPTER 118 RETREAT ORDERS

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

“Three Headquarters Vice-Admirals are really hard to deal with.”

Far away from the battlefield where he fought against the three Vice Admirals, Ross quickly landed on the ground, slightly staggering and muttering when he landed.

At this time, the wounds on his shoulder and the wound on his fist had all healed up and almost all the bloody condensed blood had fallen off, but his forehead was covered with a drip of fine sweat stains due to excessive consumption of stamina.

Doberman, Momonga, and Cancer were recently promoted Headquarters Vice-Admiral and there was still a slight gap between their strength and that of a veteran Vice-Admiral who had at least 9 years of experience, If they were veteran Vice Admirals then Ross would not have won even if he activated his “Tenacious” talent.

Even to the extent that.

If they were senior Headquarters Vice-Admiral, then two of them would have been sufficient to completely subdue Ross.

“Anyway, I was able to defeat them this time.”

Ross slowly walked towards the shore where Ghost Shadow Ship was. The last bloody battle with Momonga and others had almost exhausted the part of stamina that had risen after he had activated the “Tenacious” talent. Otherwise, he would not have noticed that the two Headquarters Rear Admirals were approaching and escaped directly.

Headquarters Rear Admiral is still eligible to intervene with Vice-Admiral’s Battle.

Ross pushed himself to his limit to win this fight, if the Momonga and others have brought two additional Headquarters Rear Admiral, then the outcome of the battle would have been very different.

Naturally.

With Gravity Distortion’s flying ability and his slightly faster speed than that of three Headquarters Vice-Admirals, Ross immediately escaped with the help of his ability once he senses that he has no chance of winning. Three Headquarters Vice-Admiral can’t stop him with flying ability at all.

As for the activation of the ‘Tenacious’ talent, this is also within Ross’s budget. He thought about whether to activate this talent a long time ago, but it has not been implemented.

Physical Enhancement is one of the three main talents of the General Department, which is a comprehensive enhancement of the body, while Tenacious is a talent branch under the Physical Enhancement.

Compared to Physical Enhancement, ‘Tenacious’ specializes in the stamina and resilience, It provides a big stamina boost to Ross and it is also capable of bearing Distortion power overload and healing Ross of any hidden injuries!

There was no system sound in his ear that indicates to defeat of Marines and he didn’t get any rewards. Ross shook his head and felt his stamina recovering little by little. He took a deep breath and walked forward.

……

On the coast.

The Ghost Shadow Ship is quietly docked on a sandy beach. On the side of the Ghost Shadow Ship, there are a lot of Marine soldiers lying on the ground. The Battle here is still intense.

Marine’s three Headquarters Rear Admirals led a group of elite Marines and they are fighting against Laffitte and others, although the Marines side had lost a lot of soldiers, the current situation is very unfavorable for Laffitte and others.

Both Laffitte and Robin have the ability to be fearless of ordinary army tactics. Marine initially swarmed in and suffered a big loss, but the three Headquarters Rear Admirals are not just simple Marines.

Whiz! Whiz!

Laffitte is moving like a ghost and at the same time he occasionally fires his guns to support Robin as he fought a Headquarters Rear Admiral.

Robin struggled under the attack of a Headquarters Rear Admiral. This Rear Admiral is a pure-body type powerhouse and not a swordsman. The advantage is that he is not a big threat to her Flower-Flower Fruit (Hana Hana no Mi). But the disadvantage is that she cannot defeat him by using her Flower-Flower Fruit (Hana Hana no Mi).

On the other side.

Trafalgar Law joined forces with Xilu to fight the last Headquarters Rear Admiral.

Xilu is a sailor brought by Ross from the Sky island. He has Observation Haki and strong physique. He uses an axe as a weapon and can withstand the attack of the Headquarters Rear Admiral with Law’s ability as support.

However.

Law is too young and even if he is only supporting from the side and not fighting the frontal combat, he is breathing heavily and his forehead overflows with sweat.

He took a deep breath and turned his wrists. Surgeon-Surgeon Fruit’s ability was activated. He suddenly swapped the Headquarters Rear Admiral location with the sand next to Xilu, causing the Headquarters Rear Admiral to receive Xilu’s big axe.

Qing!

The Headquarters Rear Admiral, with a cold gaze, blocked the big axe with his sword which resulted in him staggering slightly and then he suddenly attacked Law with his sword energy.

The sword energy cut a crack more than ten meters in length on the beach and Law did not hesitate to re-stimulate his ability to avoid the chop, but the sweat on his forehead was increasing.

“If it drags on like this, it will be more and more disadvantageous…”

He looked at the battlefield with great dignity. Robin and his side fought bitterly. If Laffitte hadn’t intervened from time to time and provide some help, they would have been defeated a long time ago and this continuous support also made it difficult for Laffitte to defeat the Headquarters Rear Admiral quickly.

It’s all so hard here, Ross’s troubles are probably even bigger.

Law’s heart sank to the bottom. He was indeed close to his revenge on Ross’s ship but the danger he encountered also increased a lot. Originally, he dealt with some bounty hunters at most, but now he was confronted with Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral, a character of this rank is someone he cannot defeat!

If not for the abilities of Surgeon-Surgeon Fruit, he would not even have the qualification to intervene in this fight.

Whiz! Whiz!

Three Headquarters Rear Admirals kept attacking, forcing Robin and others to resist passively. Only Laffitte could spare his hands, but he could not deal with three Headquarters Rear Admirals alone.

And just as the situation became more and more unfavorable, Robin’s Rear Admiral, who was trying to suppress Robin suddenly heard the sound of the Den Den Mushi in his pocket.

“Huh?”

His brows were slightly wrinkled and his fists slightly paused. Instead of taking out Den Den Mushi, he tapped his pocket directly.

“Rear Admiral Jon, what’s the situation there?”

“It’s almost over.”

Jon responded quietly as he kicked a chop at Robin.

“Not finished yet?!”

A repressed and low voice came from the Den Den Mushi. After a pause, the voice became serious and said: “Vice-Admiral Momonga has given his orders, everyone will retreat immediately!”

The voice came from Jon’s pocket and was clearly captured by Robin and Laffitte, who were present.

“Whoop…”

Laffitte was a little stunned and he did not know what to think, But after some time the corner of his mouth was raised in a strange curve and Robin’s slightly dignified and tense expression was also slightly relieved.

Jon and two other Rear Admiral heard the voice and all of them were stunned.

“Hey, what the hell are you saying? We will be able to defeat them in under a minute. Why are you telling us to retreat? Is this really Vice-Admiral Momonga’s command?!
