122 Big Moms Fleet is Coming

As countless black spots dotted the sea, everyone recognized them as the ships of the Four Emperors. The sheer number of ships indicated the significant presence of the Emperors. 

It can be said that those people standing on the high platform, except Blackbeard, felt extremely fearful.

The presence of such a formidable enemy weighed heavily on the atmosphere of the battlefield.

Blackbeard sat on the high platform with his legs crossed, holding a telescope and looking at the pirate ship opposite side

"Laffitte, do you have any idea how many crew members the Four Emperors have? The ships don't seem to be fully manned when I look at them."

At that moment, Laffitte's legs seemed restless.

But he still forced himself to be calm.

As a Backbeard pirate's titanic captain, he knew the power of his opponent well, which made him anxious not to appear weak in front of Blackbeard.

So he cleared his throat to compose himself, then turned to calmly answer Blackbeard's question.

"Captain, it looks like Big Mom hasn't brought their entire crew."

"Why would Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, hold back if she was not afraid her whole army would be wiped out?"

When Blackbeard said these words, he appeared somewhat disappointed.

He had hoped that Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, would mobilize all her forces so they could be dealt with decisively and prevent future trouble. But it seemed she was hesitant, which left him uncertain too.

Everyone sat on the high platform, waiting in silence, though the hearts of several titanic captains were beating wildly

Seeing Blackbeard's relaxed and satisfied expression, Burgess approached to ask.

"Captain, are we gonna just sit here waiting for death, how do we plan to fight them when they get closer? Even though they haven't deployed their full force, those on the ships are still powerful. We're completely unprepared..."

As he watched the ship slowly approaching, Jesus Burgess could no longer hold himself back

"Yeah, Captain, Big Mom is known for her natural strength and devil fruit. She's going to attack our Beehive Island..."

Though they didn't finish their sentences, Blackbeard understood their implication: the Four Emperors would surely destroy Beehive Island entirely.

Though the other captains nearby remained silent, the words of Laffitte and Jesus Burgess echoed their thoughts and worries perfectly.

"Are you scared? Let me tell you, once we're on this high platform, even Big Mom, the Fourth Emperor, won't be able to come close."

Upon hearing these words, several captains exchanged glances. While they recognized Blackbeard's strength, they were skeptical that he alone could deter the Four Emperors just by being here.

This is truly unprecedented.

"The captain not only considers our crew but also the people on Beehive Island."

"Yeah, they're defenseless. We can hold off the Four Emperors for a while. Though we're pirates, none of us want to see fields strewn with corpses and rivers running red with blood of our crew. Please give the order soon. Let's get ready now. We have enough time."

This quiet sea really gives the Four Emperors an opportunity to attack. Without any obstruction, they will march straight in.

But Blackbeard actually sat firmly in the middle of the upcoming battle, which really made the captains anxious.

At the same time, everyone gathered around Blackbeard, eager to offer their advice.

"Why are you running out of patience? "

Blackbeard said calmly, the indifferent attitude on his face really made everyone anxious.

Everyone, take a moment and look around. Though countless questions linger in their minds, Blackbeard does hold certain beliefs.

The sea remained calm as usual, but the black spots had already outlined their presence.

Ships with masts are closing in on Beehive Island. They're spread out over a wide area, forming a large area of the encirclement.

Seeing the dark ship, Jesus Burgess couldn't help but let out a long sigh. It felt as if their hard-work foundation was on the brink of destruction.

But he didn't dare to say it out loud his concerns; instead, he quietly felt his sadness.

Without any pirates at their disposal, even if a few of them possess exceptional skills, they wouldn't stand a chance against pirates like the Yonko, Big Mom.

After all, the opponent has both a large number of people and considerable combat experience.

So, with just the strength of a dozen of them, trying to defeat the Fourth Big Mom would be like hitting an egg against a stone.

But as the captain, Blackbeard remains seated firmly here. Without his orders, who would dare to act recklessly? They can only sit and wait, as if the end of the world is upon them.

As the ship picks up speed, the churned-up sea water splashes, and the salty scent fills the air.

"Captain, let me gather some weapons. If things get bad, we'll be able to defend ourselves"

Since everyone rushed to the high platform to assess the enemy's approach, they didn't have a chance to grab their weapons.

However, despite the opponent's ship drawing nearer, Blackbeard showed no signs of taking action.

At this moment, everyone on Beehive Island and the newly joined pirates are all in danger.

Even though they're hiding on the island, they can feel the menace looming over them. The massive Pirate Fleet instills an unprecedented fear in them.

"What's the captain's plan? Why isn't there any intention to fight? Is he ready to sacrifice all of us?"

"I think it's best for us to seize this moment to escape from here. Perhaps there's still a chance for us to survive."

"Let's wait for the captain to act cautiously. There must be a reason for his decisions. If we run away now and get caught by the captain, we'll still be on the bad side."

"Waiting like this might lead us to a dead end. Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, isn't to be underestimated. She's fearless in battle, and her pirates are all strong fighters."

"How can you enhance other people's prestige and destroy your own spirit?..."

"I don't either. I know our pirate crew is also very strong, but look at us now. There's no will to fight. No weapons in hand, yet we're still here..."

Two young pirates standing on the island were whispering to each other.

"This is really confusing..."

...…

On the deck, Charlotte Linlin, Captain of the Big Mom Pirates, looked towards Beehive Island through a telescope.

"It was strange how the Beehive Island, which was usually bustling with activity, was so peaceful today, and not even a ship could be seen on the sea. "

Looking at everything in front of her, Charlotte Linlin seemed to feel that something was wrong.

"Perospero, order to slow down the ship"

"I want to see what's happening up ahead. Why is there no movement at all?"

The Queen Mama Chanter is traveling too fast. She believes that if they continue at this speed, they will reach Beehive Island in no time. But the current situation on Beehive Island is puzzling to her.
