Chapter 279 Landing in Wano Country
Chapter 279 Landing in Wano Country
"Kaido is going to die. No one can save him this time."
When Profik learned that Whitebeard had declared war on Kaido, he had already picked up Big Bear from the entrance to the New World and sailed to the waters near Wano Country.
The newspapers these days are full of news about the war between the Beasts Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates.
The affiliated pirate group of the Whitebeard Pirates took the lead in launching an attack on the territory of the Beast Pirates, and for a while it was overwhelming. On the one hand, the Whitebeard Pirates are the elite among the Four Emperors, and the average level of their affiliated pirate groups is much higher than that of the Beast Pirates.
On the other hand, the Beast Pirates took the initiative to give up many peripheral territories.
Facing Whitebeard, Kaido, who has always been fierce and direct when faced with problems, rarely adopted "tactics".
The Beast Pirates' strategy is to shrink and concentrate all their elite forces on the defense of Wano.
Are their pirate groups not as powerful as the Whitebeard Pirates? It doesn't matter, the Beasts Pirates won't go head-to-head with the Whitebeard Pirates!
Can’t defend the outer territory? It doesn’t matter, you can give up!
As long as nothing happens to core territories like Wano Country and Onigashima, these territories can be regained.
There is a limit to the scope of the four emperors' influence. They are all a group of pirates, and their governance capabilities are really limited. A territory that is too broad will become a burden. Sure enough, after capturing the outer territory, the Whitebeard Pirates' ability to control the territory dropped significantly. Even the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates was attacked by other pirate groups.
Two affiliated pirate groups were eager to try. They did not listen to Marco's arrangements and forced themselves close to the waters near Wano Country. As expected, the ship capsized and almost the whole army was wiped out.
"No, Mr. Xiong," Profik stood next to Big Bear, "Wano Country is the focus of the decisive battle, and the previous ones are just side dishes."
"The leader said," Xiong still held the Bible in his hand, his tall figure motionless like a sculpture, looking at the sea in the distance, "You will make sure that the plan is foolproof."
"Yes, is that what you said?"
The bear said, making Profik feel a little embarrassed. Where in the world can there be any "foolproof" plan? Even if the two legendary pirates Whitebeard and Rayleigh take action, it is still unknown whether they can kill Kaido.
Not to mention anything else, the sea area near Wano Country alone is enough to withstand thousands of troops. Not to mention that the Beasts Pirates also have several potentially powerful allies. Even if Profic has been prepared for this and arranged countermeasures in advance, it is impossible to guarantee that everything will go wrong.
Unless you are near Wano Country, you will never be able to experience the horror of this sea area - strong winds, heavy rain, lightning, thunder, huge waves, whirlpools, reefs, rapids, it seems that all conditions that are not conducive to navigation are gathered together. It would be more difficult to sail the ship into Wano Country from here than to reach the sky.
However, this is already the "safest" route into Wano Country.
In this sea area, Whitebeard capsized the boat, and future Luffy and Big Mom also capsized the boat. This level of natural danger is on the same level as Mariejoia's red clay cliffs, and is definitely far better than a hundred thousand soldiers. It is even possible to outperform a Yonko.
This kind of terrain was simply created for isolation.
Profik's brows couldn't help but frown.
"What are you thinking about?" Big Bear noticed something unusual about Profik.
"I'm thinking about the future of Wano Country," Profik pointed to the huge dragon gate-like waterfall in front of him. "You see, Wano Country has such natural dangers. It may not be easy to establish connections with overseas countries in the future."
Daxiong remained silent, but his evaluation of Profic was even higher in his heart.
No matter what the big bear was thinking, Profic just focused on observing the surrounding terrain.
This closed terrain will definitely become an obstacle to the founding of Wano in the future. He remembered that the terrain of Wano was not like this since ancient times, but was man-made eight hundred years ago.
However, even if he captures the Kingdom of Wano, Profic has no intention of dismantling the natural barriers of the Kingdom of Wano in the short term. Not to mention the natural barrier built eight hundred years ago, will its demolition now bring unexpected consequences? Taking down these barriers would be tantamount to exposing Wano to the World Government and the New World Pirates.
Then, Wano may face a swarm of pirates from the New World, or an army from the World Government.
At that time, even if Kozuki Oden and Shigetsuki Ryoma are both resurrected, without the bonus of natural insurance, it is still unknown whether they can save the country of Wano.
In this sense, Kaido's existence may have "protected" the country of Wano from foreign enemies to a certain extent, and in the future, Momonosuke's choice not to "found the country" for the time being will be due to a combination of circumstances. The “right” decision was made.
It seems that the improvement of transportation capacity will be put on the agenda. I wonder if the "Sea Train", the masterpiece of Master Tom of the Seven Waters, can adapt to such a windy and rough environment. Of course, what Profik is most interested in is the hot air balloon technology similar to that of Visalia, an island country in the sky. After all, you can avoid most adverse sea conditions by sailing from the air.
"Mr. Xiong, without further ado, let's get started!"
Profik called his companions to the deck.
"Star, Morana, Leif and I will go to the country of Wano later. When Mr. Xiong activates his abilities, please do not use Armed Haki or Devil Fruit abilities to resist. The others will stay in Bifu On board the Er, move the ship farther away..."
In fact, if it were Profic himself, he would not need Big Bear's help to enter the country of Wano. He would just need to have a "wishes come true" to temporarily gain the ability to fly. Unfortunately, if he wanted to use his ability to influence others or take people to fly, the requirements for Profic were still a bit too high, so he had to ask for help from Big Bear.
However, this operation in Wano cannot be solved by just one or two people. Flower City, Guri, Rabbit Bowl... Every place may need manpower. Kuangshirou, Kawamatsu, Leopard Goro, Ashura Doji, Shigezuki Yasuie, and even masters such as Orochi and Kaido who may appear at any time, there are not enough manpower. This is absolutely not possible.
Most of the companions who have sufficient fighting strength must go to Wano Country.
But there must be enough manpower on the Bifur, at least to ensure the normal operation of the ship - the waters near Wano will soon turn into a battlefield, and it is too dangerous to stay here. When Profic and others enter the Kingdom of Wano with the help of Big Bear's ability, the Bifur will leave the Kingdom of Wano and go to safe waters.
After careful consideration, the most suitable job to be left behind was Gao Shifu and Matifa, both of whom were capable of driving ships and also had certain combat effectiveness.
As the bear's paw became powerful, Profik and the other four were wrapped in a unique bubble and flew into the sky...
