Chapter 545: Knights of God
Looking at the nine people who clearly meant no good, Sabo furrowed his brows. He had originally thought the Navy would be the ones to intercept them, but instead, they were people he had never seen before.
"Who are you..."
"Heh, no need to ask. Dead men don't need to know that much!" After speaking, the leader of the Knights of God blasted a punch toward Sabo.
Sabo's pupils constricted, and he shouted loudly: "Dragon Claw!"
Boom~
The battle was on the verge of breaking out.
The first attack was merely a probe, yet Sabo's gaze immediately turned solemn.
If he hadn't guessed wrong, these people were the Knights of God mentioned by Mr. Dragon. Each of them possessed power not inferior to an Admiral candidate, and the one who had just attacked was at least an Admiral-level opponent.
"Morley, Lin Deboge, take Mr. Kuma and go first! Crow, come help!"
"Got it! Sabo, then we're leaving first!"
Without any hesitation, Morley and Lin Deboge took Kuma and dived underground. The others from the Knights of God tried to pursue, but were blocked by Crow.
"Logia type?"
Crow didn't speak, but his body constantly misted, turning into a pile of coal ash, condensing dozens of giant coal ash swords that he hurled at the Knights of God.
On the other side, flames ignited behind Sabo as he began to clash with the leader of the Knights of God.
"Hmph! No wonder you dared to stay behind to cover the retreat. So you are two Logia users. It seems you aren't just small bugs after all!"
Sabo curled his lips: "Say whatever you want, Dragon Breath!!!"
Sabo wrapped the lower part of his forearms in Armament Haki, then lightly touched the ground with both fists. Following this, using a zero-distance attack method similar to an inch-punch, he instantly struck the ground at high speed. By doing so, he applied a powerful force to a single point on the ground, causing it to begin shattering with Sabo at the center. Finally, this power erupted all at once, like a dragon's breath, destroying the entire ground and simultaneously creating massive smoke and explosions, collapsing the rock layers downward.
Boom, boom, boom~
This area collapsed instantly, showing just how powerful this move was.
Sabo could have left directly with Crow, but he remembered Mr. Dragon once saying that the Knights of God were the World Government's trump card. If he could roughly gauge their strength, the Revolutionary Army could better respond to them.
Therefore, he prepared to linger for a while to test the strength of the Knights of God. Of course, if the Navy arrived, he would have no choice but to run.
"Everyone, please don't panic. I guarantee on my honor as a Navy Hero that you will absolutely be safe. Please trust me, trust the Navy."
Karl helplessly comforted this group of terrified representatives from the affiliated nations and their families. Fortunately, his reputation was great, and everyone trusted him. After a brief moment of panic, they slowly calmed down.
"Admiral Karl, what exactly is the situation outside? Could it be that the Revolutionary Army has already reached Mary Geoise?"
Karl waved his hand: "Rest assured, absolutely not. According to reports, the Revolutionary Army came to Mary Geoise this time only to declare war on the World Government. The commotion outside right now should be the World Government capturing these Revolutionary Army cadres."
"As long as everyone stays here, you are safe. Once the Navy's reinforcements arrive, I believe the Revolutionary Army will be suppressed very soon. Please wait patiently."
Hearing this, everyone present immediately felt relieved. They still trusted the power of the Navy; after all, a large part of the reason they were willing to pay protection money was that the Navy could protect their countries. As for the World Government, although they had the CP departments, well... it's better not to mention them.
Brrr, brrr, brrr~
Karl picked up the Den Den Mushi: "You've arrived? Where are you?"
"Fine, I'm at the emergency shelter on the southwest side. Bring your people over!"
After Karl hung up the phone, a king asked impatiently: "Admiral Karl, is that the Navy's reinforcements?"
Karl nodded: "That's right. Fleet Admiral Kuzan has sent Admiral Kizaru and Admiral Fujitora, along with 5 Vice Admirals, to protect your safety. They will be here soon."
That king breathed a sigh of relief; now he finally didn't have to live in fear.
Five minutes later, Kizaru and Fujitora arrived with 5 Vice Admirals.
"With such a big thing happening, you still look very relaxed, Karl-san."
Karl shrugged: "You've come at the right time. Admiral Kizaru, leave the Revolutionary Army to you. They should be clashing with the Knights of God right now. Go over and help out, but don't put in too much effort. I think you should understand what I mean."
Whoosh~
Kizaru pursed his lips, staring at his fingertips, and said with an indifferent look: "Sigh~ what a pity~ I was actually prepared to go all out?"
Karl:......
If Fujitora had said this, Karl might have believed him, but coming from Kizaru, why did he find it so hard to believe?
Go all out? I think you just want to slack off!
"As long as you're happy, then I'll leave it to you."
Kizaru pouted, his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the spot.
Then Karl turned his gaze to Fujitora: "Mr. Issho, I leave this place to you. Your mission is to protect these representatives of the World Government's affiliated nations. There shouldn't be any issues, after all, there are only 4 people in the Revolutionary Army."
Issho nodded silently: "Rest assured, little friend Karl, just leave it to this old man."
Karl revealed a smile, patted Fujitora on the shoulder, and brushed past him.
"Vice Admiral Momonga, Vice Admiral Onigumo... I leave this place to you."
"Rest assured, Karl. If the Revolutionary Army dares to come, I guarantee they won't be able to return!"
Then, Karl walked to Shirahoshi's side and comforted her...
10 minutes later.
Karl arrived at the scene of the battle. Kizaru was picking his nails on the side, looking idle.
Watching Sabo and Crow clashing with the Knights of God, Karl couldn't help but rub his chin, a look of contemplation appearing in his eyes.
The Knights of God were indeed something, but as for their specific strength, he still had to observe more.
"Yo, you've come to watch the show too. I thought you were prepared to come over!"
Karl laughed: "Fujitora is over there, so there's nothing for me to do. I might as well come over and see the situation here. Tsk, the Revolutionary Army's strength is indeed quite good! No wonder they dared to break into Mary Geoise with only four people!"
"Four people? Where are the four people? I only see two of them?" Kizaru said, puzzled.
"Then those two are the ones left behind to cover the retreat; the others must have already run away." ===== CHAPTER 547 =====
