Chương 1923: Battle of the North Sea (69)

At that moment, his eyes became unusually clear, as if he was suddenly awakened by something.

She was no longer obsessed with the deliciousness of the cake as usual, nor did she get angry easily over trivial matters. She seemed unusually calm.

This scene takes place on the Island of Beasts, a mysterious and dangerous place.

"Captain, there's news!"

Jhin walked into the room with a serious look on his face and reported to the captain.

"Tell me, what's the news?"

The captain's voice was deep and powerful.

"The news from Mary Geoise is terrible. Mary Geoise has suffered heavy losses, with heavy casualties. It's practically razed to the ground! All our spies there have been killed!"

There was a hint of anxiety in Jin's words.

Upon hearing the news, Yamato frowned.

"Uncle Jin, have you found out what weapon caused such severe damage?"

Jin shook his head and replied helplessly: "It's not clear yet, but we have heard some rumors from the Buggy Pirates that it seems to be related to the Uranus, one of the three ancient weapons, but no one can confirm this yet."

Yamato pondered for a moment, then said, "Okay, I understand. Everyone should be more restrained during this period. The World Government may make major moves, and we cannot take it lightly."

After saying that, Yamato turned his gaze to Jin and continued, "By the way, Uncle Jin, have you found out why the navy has been making such a big move these days?"

Jin's expression changed slightly, and he seemed a little hesitant about this question.

"Captain, there's an incident in the North Sea!"

Jin said with a serious expression.

When Yamato heard what Jin said, he suddenly raised his head and frowned.

"What's going on? Tell me!"

Jin took a deep breath, collected himself, and then said, "The general we placed in the navy just sent us word that the Rockefeller Kingdom has actually invaded the North Sea!"

This news was like a bombshell, causing an uproar in the room.

The high-ranking members of the Beasts Pirates present were all stunned. They looked at each other, unable to believe their ears for a moment.

"What? The Rockefeller Kingdom invades the North Sea? How is this possible?"

Quinn asked with wide eyes and a suspicious look on his face.

Jin nodded and said seriously, "I didn't believe it at first, but now the Navy and the World Government are like ants on a hot pan, scrambling and mobilizing troops to rush to the North Sea's aid. This means that this news must be true."

The room fell into silence as everyone pondered this sudden turn of events.

After a while, Jin continued, "But I believe that such a big thing can't be kept secret for long. Maybe we'll see related reports on the news soon."

Yamato's face grew darker and darker, and she clenched her fists tightly.

"The Rockefeller Kingdom actually dared to take action at this time. What on earth do they want to do?"

Jhin shook his head.

"It's not clear yet, but what is certain is that this is definitely not good news for us."

"I'm afraid another war is about to break out. Neither the Rockefeller Kingdom nor the World Government are easy to mess with!"

Yamato looked at his subordinates solemnly and spoke slowly.

"If we don't respond in time, we might be dragged into this war between the two sides, and the consequences will be disastrous. So, from now on, all crew members of the Beasts Pirates must behave themselves and try to avoid unnecessary conflicts."

"Yes!"

All the top leaders of the Beasts Pirates nodded in understanding.

They also felt the abnormality of the current situation and were secretly frightened.

Most of the people present were well aware of the power of the Rockefeller Empire.

This behemoth that has emerged in recent decades has unfathomable strength. It can be said that it is fully capable of destroying the Beasts Pirates easily.

The World Government is also an unshakable behemoth for the Beasts Pirates.

Moreover, the World Government has existed for more than 800 years, and its foundation is far more profound than that of the Beasts Pirates.

Whether it is the Rockefeller Kingdom or the World Government, neither force can be easily offended by the Beasts Pirates.

Now that the two forces have gone to war, it is like two ferocious beasts fighting each other, and the Beasts Pirates are like a little lamb caught in the middle. If they are not careful, they will be dragged into it and suffer a devastating disaster.

On the rough sea, a huge sailboat with a red flag flying is breaking through the waves. This is the famous Red Hair Pirates.

On the deck of the ship, Ben Beckman was leaning leisurely on the railing, with a cigar in his mouth and smoke curling up.

At this moment, crew member Laqi Lu hurried over, handed him a piece of intelligence, and said anxiously: "Second Captain, the Rockefeller Kingdom is attacking the North Sea through the doldrums. Now the Navy and the World Government are as anxious as ants on a hot pan!"

Ben Beckman took the information, looked at it carefully, and frowned slightly.

He knew that the doldrums were an extremely dangerous sea area where there was no wind and it was difficult for ships to sail, let alone lead a large army across it.

"I bought this from a World Government official. It's absolutely authentic!"

Lazi Lu quickly added, fearing that Ben Beckman would doubt the authenticity of the information.

Ben Beckman took a deep breath, slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, and muttered to himself, "The Calm Belt... Who could have imagined that such a large army would dare to pass through the Calm Belt? This Rockefeller Kingdom has truly shocked us!"

However, when he thought of Shanks, his heart grew heavy again.

"What's the point of leaving me alone in such a wonderful world?"

Ben Beckman stood up and stared at the distant sea horizon, as if he could see the familiar figure of Shanks.

After a while, Ben Beckman came to his senses and said to Laqi Lu, "Let's go. We can't get involved in this matter. When gods fight, mortals suffer. Let them fight to the death!"

After saying that, he turned and went back into the cabin, leaving Laqi Lu standing there, thinking.

The Red Hair Pirates' sailboat continued to drift on the sea, away from the fierce conflict that was about to break out, heading towards the unknown shore.

It would be harder than climbing to the sky for Ben Beckman to intervene in the fierce battle between the two sides.

Unless he can gather all the pirates and form a powerful pirate alliance, there may be a chance for him to participate.

But this is just an assumption, and it is not easy to implement in practice.

More importantly, even if he succeeded in forming a pirate alliance, it would depend on whether Charlotte and Im would survive.

If these two giants decided to take action personally, Ben Beckman and his pirate allies might not even have the chance to fight and could only become bystanders.
