Quinn couldn't help but cough, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, and said with a bitter smile:
"It seems we've really reached the end of the line."
Cracker gripped his weapon tightly, a hint of unwillingness flashing in his eyes:
"Why does the Navy suddenly have so much support, and how did Jin An come back!"
Oven nodded, gritting his teeth and saying:
"Even if we die, we'll die standing!"
"They're just relying on their numerical advantage, not exactly heroes!"
Katakuri felt the determination of his companions, but couldn't muster a trace of strength in his heart.
He looked up at the sky, although he didn't need to look up to sense the situation in the sky, but he didn't want Mama to fail.
They had no retreat, no choice. Before, they could still deceive themselves into trying their best to fight for that glimmer of hope.
But... now there really is no chance......
Suddenly, the Navy soldiers launched an attack.
Katakuri reacted instantly, raising his fist high, Busoshoku Haki exploded in the air, repelling several Navy soldiers at the very front.
Quinn, Cracker, and Oven also launched attacks one after another, each of their strikes carrying the determination to fight to the death.
However, the Navy's offensive was like a surging tide, their numbers and stamina holding an absolute advantage.
Katakuri and the others' defense line gradually collapsed, each attack becoming more and more difficult.
The pain of the wounds, the exhaustion of physical strength, gradually overwhelmed their will.
Quinn's offensive gradually weakened, and was finally knocked down from behind by a Navy soldier.
Cracker was besieged by several enemies, and ultimately couldn't resist, forced to kneel on the ground.
Oven tried his best, but still fell in a pool of blood.
Katakuri saw his companions falling one by one, his heart filled with a mixture of anger and sorrow.
"You damned Navy!!!"
He let out a roar, gathering all his strength for the last time, and charged forward.
Kuzan led the Navy soldiers to block Katakuri, launching the final siege against the desperately resisting Katakuri.
Katakuri used all his skills.
However, facing the endless enemies, his body finally couldn't hold on, and he fell heavily to the ground.
The Navy soldiers slowly surrounded him, their eyes filled with a complex emotion.
Victory was within reach, but facing these enemies who fought tenaciously to the last moment, their hearts were filled with hatred.
"You've lost," a Navy officer said coldly, "put down your weapons."
Katakuri gasped, struggling to raise his head, his eyes still full of stubbornness and unyielding spirit:
"We... will never surrender..."
The Navy soldiers were silent for a moment, then stepped forward and handcuffed Katakuri and the others with seastone handcuffs, preparing to escort them to Impel Down.
They knew that these once invincible powerhouses had now become prisoners.
But in any case, the rules of this sea are like this, only the victors can laugh last.
Katakuri looked around one last time, seeing those familiar figures.
Although they had failed, he knew that they had tried their best.
He closed his eyes, silently praying in his heart, hoping that there would be a glimmer of hope in the future, for their companions, for their dreams.
Hancock, Kuzan, Shiryu, Toki, Crocodile, and Dragon stood before them, their eyes coldly watching these defeated generals.
"Put down your weapons, this battle is over," Kuzan said, his voice calm and firm.
The pirates finally put down their weapons, knowing that continuing to resist was meaningless.
The smoke of gunpowder on the battlefield gradually dissipated, the battle in the sky was still continuing, but the victory or defeat on the ground had been settled.
Kuzan and Toki breathed a sigh of relief, the burden on their shoulders finally lifted.
Then everyone focused on the battle in the sky.
......
The battle in the sky was extremely fierce, and the eyes of the four powerhouses almost simultaneously noticed the changes below the G-5 Branch.
Zephyr had a smug smile on his face, he looked at Charlotte Linlin and mocked with a sneer:
"It seems that you pirates are the first to be unable to bear it."
Charlotte Linlin was furious when she heard this.
Her eyes were bloodshot, and anger burned fiercely in her heart, and she responded with gritted teeth:
"Don't be too happy too soon! It's not over until it's over!"
Jin An's eyes were like lightning, locking onto Kaido, and he was secretly vigilant in his heart.
He knew that Kaido was even more dangerous at this time.
Sure enough, Kaido's face changed, looking a little gloomy, but the violent color in his eyes was even more obvious.
He swung his spiked club wildly and attacked Jin An suddenly.
"Boom!"
Kaido's spiked club slammed towards Jin An with the force of thunder.
Jin An quickly dodged, but the spiked club hit the place where Jin An was originally standing, stirring up a violent shock wave that shattered the surrounding white clouds.
Jin An's heart shuddered, he felt Kaido's power was even more violent, but he did not flinch, and quickly counterattacked.
A slash with the power of thunder struck Kaido's chest.
Although Kaido blocked the blow with his spiked club, he was also knocked back a few steps.
"......"
Charlotte Linlin was furious, the Emperor Sword Homie Prometheus in her hand was burning with raging flames, the blade instantly lengthened, and slashed towards Zephyr with the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.
Zephyr calmly met the attack, each of his moves was as steady as Mount Tai, forming a sharp contrast with Charlotte Linlin's violent offensive.
Zephyr's eyes were full of perseverance and calmness, he knew the situation at the moment, while fighting fiercely with Charlotte Linlin, he paid attention to the battlefield below.
Every move and every style was with deliberate strategy, he knew that his stamina could not compare to Charlotte Linlin, so he adopted various tactics in battle.
Temporary retreat does not affect the overall situation, the one who laughs last is the ultimate winner.
"Lighting Sword!!!"
Charlotte Linlin's offensive became more and more violent, each slash carrying unparalleled anger and power.
She was unwilling to fail, unwilling to see her pirate group defeated in this battle.
Each of her attacks contained her anger and unyielding spirit, she wanted to prove that even in the face of a Navy admiral, she could still fight to the end.
Kaido's offensive was equally crazy, each time he swung his spiked club, it carried the power to shake the heavens and the earth.
Jin An calmly responded, skillfully defusing Kaido's attacks.
The battle between the two was like a collision between behemoths, fierce and spectacular.
The battle in the sky attracted everyone's attention, whether it was ordinary navy soldiers or officers, they were shocked by this unprecedented battle.
Everyone's hearts were filled with awe and amazement, they understood that this was not just a battle, but a decisive duel.
The battle in the sky continued, each collision of the four powerhouses carrying the power to shake the heavens and the earth.
Zephyr and Charlotte Linlin, Jin An and Kaido, the giants on the two battlefields, were writing their own legends in this sky.
