On Enies Lobby.
A group of pirates and navy were continuously retreating.
Everyone wanted to clear a space to provide an open battlefield for Uchiha Madara and Douglas Bullet's battle; no one present dared to compete with them!
"Everyone retreat!"
"Retreat in the direction of the Tower of Justice!"
Akihara Kagura raised his arm, loudly commanding all the navy to immediately retreat to the Tower of Justice to avoid unnecessary losses.
"We'll retreat to the ship too!"
Red-haired Shanks also raised his arm, calling his companions to leave together; his gaze then turned to Luffy and the others: "Go and rescue Luffy's little guys!"
However…
This time, no one stopped him.
Because of the appearance of the Konoha Pirates, neither Straw Hat Luffy nor anyone else mattered, not even the Red Hair Pirates or the Whitebeard Pirates were as important.
Before the Red Hair Pirates made any move, the silhouette of the Golden Merry swam over from the sea, and the Straw Hat Pirates, regardless of the chaos, rushed up and snatched Luffy and the others away!
These small pirates…
Naturally wouldn't attract the attention of others.
Only Smoker, accompanied by his deputy Tashigi, tried to stop them a bit, but their actions seemed more like going easy, and Tashigi even tossed Zoro's sword to the ground!
"Hey, hey, hey, you woman!"
Zoro was so startled that he immediately pounced over, clutching his sword to his chest!
"Roronoa Zoro."
Tashigi looked down at Zoro, the gaze of this female swordsman particularly sharp: "I always thought you were a heinous pirate, but in Alabasta, you were willing to declare war on Crocodile's Baroque Works for the civilians of Alabasta. It was my narrow vision before. I'm giving all your swords back to you. I hope in the future on the sea, you won't betray your Wado Ichimonji!"
"Tch..."
Zoro scoffed disdainfully; he didn't care what others thought of him! He had only one goal, to become the World's Number One Sword Master!
"Straw Hat boy..."
"Next time I see you, I'll capture you again."
Smoker watched Luffy's figure, the cigar in his mouth puffing smoke, muttering: "Don't make me find you doing evil on the sea next time!"
"Blergh blergh blergh~"
Straw Hat Luffy made a face at Smoker, hurriedly leaving with Ace carrying Marco on their back, not caring about much else!
"Tashigi, we need to go too."
Smoker watched Luffy's back, his gaze falling on Enies Lobby where Uchiha Madara and Douglas Bullet clashed, a hint of frustration flashing in his eyes: "The dignified Navy can only let pirates fight on our territory…"
"Brigadier General Smoker…"
Tashigi understood her supervisor's feelings, but she could only utter a few words in consolation: "After all, the opponents are monster-like pirates, and wasn't letting pirates kill each other always Brigadier General Smoker's style?"
"Let's go."
Smoker didn't want to dwell on the topic.
Tashigi followed his footsteps, muttering as she spoke: "Maybe Admiral Aokiji and Admiral Kagura want to let the pirates kill each other too…"
"Tashigi…"
Smoker tapped Tashigi's forehead with his finger, slightly displeased with her obliviousness: "Don't overthink it, let's move!"
This idiot...
Did she forget the horror from the Sky Island battle images?
That was a force enough to easily destroy an island!
If Tashigi thought that having the monsters among these pirates just kill each other would be enough, she'd be gravely mistaken. Battles between monsters are perilous!
If Whitebeard, Red-haired Shanks, and the Konoha Pirates really went to war, the result of this conflict might still not be particularly clear, but there's no doubt that the navy spectators and Enies Lobby as the battlefield are certainly going to be the casualties of this war!
In front of those monsters...
There's absolutely no safety!
On Enies Lobby.
The battlefield was gradually being emptied.
Except for a group of unavoidable great pirates, others had fled elsewhere in droves; both Uchiha Madara and Douglas Bullet were inherently arrogant, they didn't care if their battle would affect others!
However…
These two were currently only engaging in basic Taijutsu!
Uchiha Madara's movements were extremely fierce, each move a deadly strike because his forte was killing and fighting, with his five fingers curving fiercely toward Douglas Bullet's neck, as if that was the opening to end the battle!
Douglas Bullet was no exception; he had battled many strong opponents at sea, even frequently clashing with Pirate King Roger, his combat style leaned toward overpowering enemies with absolute strength!
This was a clash of techniques and strength!
Everyone watched the fight between the two intensely, each person's eyes dazzled, each could feel enormous pressure from their exchange, with few believing they could endure long at the hands of these two!
"So strong..."
The people present couldn't help but sweat from their foreheads.
Even to some great pirates, going up against them was simply becoming a defeated subordinate to these two guys, not expecting there to be such terrifying figures on the sea!
Uchiha Madara's Sharingan glowed red, his palm relentlessly thrusting forward, yet Douglas Bullet forcibly blocked it with a raised arm, then swung a fist toward Uchiha Madara's head, to which Madara unhesitatingly twisted and retaliated with a punch!
