Chapter 604: Magic Array, Divine Soldiers Descend
The sky, for some unknown reason, became incredibly gloomy.
Many Strongmen turned their gaze towards Saint Saturn and Typhon.
The War had lasted for such a long time, and their intuition told them that an upheaval was definitely about to occur.
Above the ground, a strange aura permeated the air, and a mysterious magic array with a five-pointed star in its center gradually appeared.
Such a method definitely wasn't created by Typhon; it was most likely Saint Saturn, one of the Five Elders.
The aura brewing from the magic array was very similar to the aura of Saint Saturn during his Beast Transformation.
After a brief hesitation, although he didn't know what Saint Saturn was planning, Typhon knew he couldn't let Saint Saturn continue like this.
Instead of passively waiting, it was better to take the initiative and attack.
Since it was caused by an ability, it definitely had flaws.
However, he didn't underestimate the situation.
A giant ship anchor, coated with Conqueror's Haki and covered in powerful Armament Haki, was swung up by Typhon with both hands, and then smashed fiercely towards the location of the magic array.
He wanted to try and see if Haki could shatter this thing.
Seeing this, Saint Saturn's body nimbly dodged the ship anchor.
Immediately after, the magic array on the ground strangely moved to the side.
Haki could indeed destroy its role, and even before the ship anchor fell, reinforcements located in the Holy Land could arrive.
However, to prevent them from being severely hit as soon as they appeared, Saint Saturn directly shifted the coordinates of the magic array.
After all, Typhon's full-power strike was still very terrifying.
Even a Top-tier Monster, without any protective measures or means, might be directly killed.
Typhon possessed such destructive power.
If Haki wasn't used, most Monsters on The Great Sea would find it difficult to withstand one of Typhon's moves with just their physical strength.
"Boom!"
The ship anchor fell like a meteorite.
Countless debris splashed towards the sky.
Countless cracks spread outwards, smoke and dust rose everywhere, and the location where the ship anchor landed was already a deep pit dozens of meters in diameter.
Even the foundation of the Island seemed affected.
Although it was floating in the air, the entire Island swayed slightly, tilted, and even affected the surrounding Islands.
On the other side, in Holy Land Mariejois.
In the open space in front of the Power Peak Building, the same magic array as the one on the Blood War Island Battlefield appeared.
The difference was that on top of the magic array stood six figures.
They were Saint Warcury and five Holy Knights, dressed in luxurious attire, who had decided to participate in the War.
Outside the magic array, Saint Pitt, as well as four other Guard Members of the Holy Knights, along with Commander-in-Chief Garling Saint, were also observing.
Not many people knew about this ability of Saint Saturn, but this was the first time it had been used in recent years.
The last time was when the Rocks Pirates led their Legion to invade the Four Seas and the First Half of the Grand Line.
At that time, several of the Five Elders were also dispatched.
To save time, several Five Elders would directly teleport to other Sea Areas through Saint Saturn's magic array.
The movement of the teleportation was very intense.
Energy like black flames continuously erupted, and thunder flashed constantly in the high altitude tens of thousands of meters up.
Many people in Holy Land Mariejois could notice such a large commotion from afar.
Some people didn't know what was happening and didn't dare to go and investigate, if they didn't want to die.
Similarly, a small number of people guessed the situation.
This ability had also been displayed many years ago.
Furthermore, the Celestial Dragons' meeting was not a secret.
Some Factions with close connections to the Celestial Dragons could obtain a lot of intelligence, especially by extracting information from those Celestial Dragons who weren't very bright.
In the blink of an eye, the terrifying energy fluctuation dissipated, and the six people standing inside the magic array vanished directly.
Immediately after, the magic array on the ground also dispersed.
The impact of this on Blood War Island was undoubtedly extremely terrifying.
Everyone's face changed.
Six powerful auras at their peak spread across the entire Battlefield.
As the smoke and dust dissipated, six figures appeared on the magic array created by Saint Saturn.
Just from their clothing, it was clear that they belonged to the World Government Faction.
The powerful Conqueror's Haki of the six people erupted simultaneously, as if announcing their arrival and serving as a deterrence to the enemies on the Battlefield.
Black-red lightning continuously spread, simultaneously changing the celestial phenomenon.
"Reinforcements?"
"That's quite a grand gesture."
As for the Battlefield on Typhon's side, Shiki couldn't see it, but he could feel those six undisguised powerful auras.
However, there was no sign of panic on his face; it seemed to have been within his expectations all along.
The six figures that suddenly appeared had not yet caused a significant impact on the entire War.
Even if the sky falls, the tallest will bear the brunt.
Moreover, for the Pirate Alliance Army, which had many Strongmen, it wasn't difficult to deploy some combatant strength to hold them back.
However, their arrival had already made people feel stress.
Six Top Tier Combatants were enough to change the situation of this War and reverse the current upper hand held by the Pirate side.
Even if the Pirate Alliance Army sent out Powerful Strongmen, they could only delay for a time.
The longer they delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be for the Allied Forces.
At this time, each of the Monsters in the Pirate Alliance Army had their own enemies.
There were few who could free up their hands, and furthermore, they were not opponents for these few Monsters from the World Government.
There were many Strongmen among the Pirates, and they could still stabilize the situation for a short time.
However, when the losses became too great, the overall situation would naturally collapse.
If a Strongman were to be surrounded, their defeat would likely be faster.
The death in battle of one Monster could lead to the defeat of the War in an entire Area.
"You look a bit disheveled, Saint Saturn. Is this the little guy?"
Saint Warcury noticed Typhon's presence, looked at Saint Saturn, and smiled.
"He's no little guy. Don't worry about me, you should first help others deal with the Monsters that are easier to handle."
Saint Saturn was not in the mood to reminisce with Saint Warcury.
The War, which had lasted for nearly a month, had left him somewhat numb.
Since the reinforcements had arrived, their effect should be maximized.
Do whatever is beneficial to the War Situation.
Just as Saint Saturn said, first target the combatant strength of the Monsters that are easier to deal with.
As for a Monster like Typhon, Saint Saturn, who had fought for so long, knew that dealing with Typhon was just a waste of energy.
He clearly knew how terrifying Typhon was.
Even if they all attacked together, it would be difficult to kill Typhon.
The World's Top Tier terrifying physique, powerful Armament Haki, and top-tier recovery power.
In some aspects, Typhon could already be said to be invincible.
Unfathomable stamina and recovery power, and vast amounts of Haki, made Typhon fearless of any challenge.
Typhon's Body Limit had never been reached.
Even Saint Saturn had been defeated by Typhon multiple times, forced to leave due to stamina depletion.
Next, without Saint Saturn's resistance, Typhon went on a rampage, killing many Strongmen of the World Government in a short time.
After encountering obstacles, Typhon would retreat to the Rear Area to restore his condition.
He wouldn't be arrogant enough to face Saint Saturn after he had recovered.
Utilizing this time difference was enough for Typhon to achieve considerable Battle Results.
This Situation frequently occurred within the Monster Legion.
It could be said that the Monster Legion was a great contributor to the Pirate Alliance Army.
Making the World Government Legion, which was already slightly weaker, even more disadvantaged.
