Chapter 523: Complete Disadvantage and Sacrifice
The great battle had already begun.
Garp and Sengoku, two Top Tier Combatants, joined forces to deal with Roger.
Immense pressure continuously impacted Roger.
Their tacit agreement of several decades, combined with their strength, achieved an effect far greater than one plus one.
Two fists are no match for four hands, especially since Roger only had one sword.
Even so, Roger still stabilized the situation.
Future Sight, Armament Haki, Conqueror's Domain – he fully exhibited all the means by which he had established himself on The Great Sea.
Breaking through Roger's defense line in a short time would not be easy.
Garp, who was familiar with Roger, knew that as time passed, Roger's combat strength would only grow stronger.
Rayleigh was above the Sky, holding his black blade, an absolute domain formed by powerful Haki.
Dragon and the CP0 Director-General joined forces to deal with Rayleigh.
Similarly facing the assault of two monsters, Rayleigh did not fall into decline.
Possessing Conqueror's Domain, he naturally held an advantage over his enemies.
His slashes, radiating endless pressure, constantly clashed with the CP0 Director-General and Dragon.
Gaban's opponents were Zephyr and Army General "Bamboo Python".
Although Zephyr and "Bamboo Python" didn't have the same tacit agreement as Garp and Sengoku.
However, both were considered strong body technique users, and "Bamboo Python" was also an Ability User who had eaten an Ancient Zoan.
In the previous era, Zephyr had not yet become an Admiral, and "Bamboo Python" was still an Admiral Candidate; they were acquainted.
As long as they intended to cooperate, their combined powerful combat strength completely suppressed Gaban.
Kozuki Oden's opponents were the CP0 Deputy Director and Army General "White Ghost".
The CP0 Deputy Director's combat strength alone was no less than his, and adding Army General "White Ghost" made things even worse for Kozuki Oden.
Army General "The Storm Dragon", numerous CP0 Agents, God's Guard Candidates, and Army Admiral Candidates.
Including Marine Elite such as Borsalino and other Logia-type Devil Fruit Users, attacked simultaneously.
They engaged in a great battle with the combatants of the Roger Pirates.
Among the Roger Pirates, who were all elite, there were two Apprentice Pirates, and some members who, despite having slightly weaker strength, possessed special talents.
The other combatants were undoubtedly strongmen of the New World.
Spencer, Brumalin, Sambell, and others, all possessed powerful combat strength approaching that of Top Tier Combatants.
Especially Spencer, who still held his own against Army General "The Storm Dragon".
The other members of the Roger Pirates also faced strong enemies.
In this war, even Sakazuki and Borsalino were just ordinary members.
However, the war situation was undeniable.
The Roger Pirates were being suppressed.
At least half of the Roger Pirates' combatants had to face the assault of two powerful combatants.
This time, the World Government and Marines jointly dispatched over sixty powerful combatants.
Marine Headquarters, Army, and CP0 Agent had basically all been mobilized.
The quality of most Headquarters Vice Admirals and Army Vice Admirals was not high.
The Army, needless to say.
The new generation of Marines had not fully grown up, and most of the older generation had died in battle.
The real suppression was actually only being formed by the Top Tier Combatants.
Many Roger Pirates combatants were still handling the assault of two Vice Admirals with ease.
Tsuru in the distance clearly saw this; it was unavoidable.
The Elite Training Camp had been established for too short a time, and the Marines' high-end combat power was lacking.
Many of the newly promoted Vice Admiral level combat power lacked a deep foundation, similar to the Army.
Army Vice Admirals at least had backgrounds, and many were Ability Users.
The most outstanding performers were Sakazuki and the others.
Sakazuki fought the tall Nozdon alone.
Borsalino's opponent was Jackson Bana.
Kuzan was also handling a Roger Pirates combatant with ease.
However, the advantage was still with them.
The performance of the four God's Guard Candidates was astonishing.
They were completely on par with Sakazuki and the others, perhaps even slightly more outstanding.
With absolute strength, they suppressed four Roger Pirates combatants.
There was no issue of lack of battle experience as imagined; they were completely battle-hardened and incredibly strong.
The scales of victory had already tipped towards them.
If there were no surprises, soon, within just half a day, the members of the Roger Pirates would reveal openings and suffer casualties.
Facing an assault, lasting for one day was roughly the limit for an ordinary combatant.
In three days, the Roger Pirates would face downfall.
Even Roger, under the assault of Garp and Sengoku, could only last for three days.
At the same time, Tsuru also considered the casualties issue.
They had an advantage in the number of Strongmen, so the final casualties wouldn't be large, ten at most.
This was completely within their acceptable range.
Moreover, it was calculated based on each Faction sharing the burden.
Everything seemed to be within her predictions.
However, for some reason, Tsuru's heart was not entirely certain of success.
One should know that the World Government had already made arrangements regarding the World Economic Journal.
There would be no Reporter Bird live streaming this battle.
Even if birds appeared, to prevent news leakage, they would be killed without hesitation at the first opportunity.
No one knew where the Battlefield was.
Even if the news of this battle spread across the Great Sea, it was believed that no one would find this place before the war ended.
Without a clear target, arriving within three days was simply impossible.
The Wash-Wash Fruit ability seemed to cleanse the ice layer, making the thick ice transparent like glass, allowing Tsuru to see the situation on the Sea Surface beneath the ice.
She was concerned about Roger's ability, but likewise found no unusual movements.
However, she did not relax her vigilance.
While paying attention to the Battlefield, she also kept an eye on the situation of the Great Sea beneath the ice.
Half a day later, as expected, the Roger Pirates suffered casualties.
Under the continuous assault.
A combatant named Langram died in battle.
The one who killed him was precisely one of the God's Guard Candidates.
A companion had been sacrificed, but the battle continued, transforming grief into strength.
All members of the Roger Pirates continued to persevere under immense pressure.
