Chapter 116: Justifiable Reasons for Fishing

Rumbling—

At this moment.

Above the sea, wind and thunder were gathering, and the waves were furious!

Whether it was Admiral Kizaru or Admiral Candidate Tokikake, even the CP0 agents who served the World Government and the Celestial Dragons halted all actions!

As a high-tech submarine surfaced from the depths of the sea, the situation shifted instantly.

"What is this?"

The confidant sailor under Momousagi asked nervously.

Naturally, they couldn't guess the identity of the intruder based on a submarine alone. But to have such advanced technology, apart from the World Government, what other force could possess such capabilities?

"Don't worry, we're safe today!"

A flicker of hope and excitement flashed in Momousagi's beautiful eyes.

Because Shiro was here!

"Yo~ It looks like we've provoked someone truly terrifying!"

Admiral Kizaru sighed with a mix of worry and nonchalance as he watched the chaotic sky. He recalled the scenes from the War.

That young man had already shown incredible strength—one that could rival even an Admiral. Given the current circumstances, this mission offered him the perfect excuse to take things easy.

Rumbling—

As both sides focused on the submarine, dozens of massive lightning bolts struck down from the sky, targeting Tokikake's naval fleet.

"Damn, how could there be such a large-scale lightning storm? All units, evasive maneuvers!"

Shocked by the sight, Tokikake quickly ordered his men to dodge the incoming thunderbolts.

However, Shiro's battle with Enel had further honed his lightning abilities. Even though these were just God's Punishment Thunder strikes, each charged with no more than 80 million volts, they were far too powerful for regular naval officers.

With just one round of attacks, a third of Tokikake's fleet was decimated.

When the lightning barrage subsided, nine figures descended through the arcs of electricity. Leading them was none other than Shiro!

"Enel, go! Anyone willing to surrender, let them stay, the rest, eliminate!"

Upon his arrival, Shiro's gaze fell on Momousagi and her injured troops. Anger surged within him. Though he had arrived in time, the sight of Momousagi's injuries enraged him.

"Yeah, hahaha, got it!"

Enel laughed as he led seven cloaked figures in attacking Tokikake and his forces.

In mere moments, Enel displayed remarkable prowess. With his lightning speed and thunderous power, he overwhelmed the Navy's side, leaving only Kizaru and Tokikake to hold their ground. Even the seven cloaked warriors proved formidable, further tipping the battle in Shiro's favor.

Seeing this, Momousagi's subordinates reignited their fighting spirit and threw themselves into the fray. After all, they had once followed Momousagi out of the Navy's G-6 base, trusting Shiro's vision.

Previously, they had doubts, wondering if they'd made the wrong choice, and some had even considered surrender. But now, seeing Shiro in action, their faith was restored.

Because Shiro, the strongest Rear Admiral who had risen during the Summit War and challenged the might of the Navy, was here!

"Aunt Momousagi, are you alright? Luckily, I wasn't too late. If anything happened to you, I would raze the G-1 base and leave the Navy in ruins!"

Shiro said, clutching the life paper that had finally stopped burning.

Momousagi smiled, reassured by Shiro's presence.

"Don't worry, idiot. I'm not that weak. But... thank you for coming just in time!"

Despite the ongoing battle, Momousagi couldn't help but feel joy at Shiro's arrival. This young man was no longer just a promising figure—he was a true powerhouse.

"Shiro, what's the plan? I can still fight!"

Momousagi declared, raising her sword again. Judging from the situation, the warriors Shiro brought were exceptionally strong. Especially Enel, who was able to clash with Kizaru—an impressive feat even for a fellow Logia user.

But what had Shiro been doing all this time? Where had he found such powerful allies?

"Don't worry, Aunt Momousagi."

Shiro watched the battle unfold, calm yet calculating. He wasn't rushing in, the Celestial Dragons in his custody were his trump card, and he intended to make full use of them.

"Kizaru is slippery, and we can't keep him here. Aunt Momousagi, you should rest. I've prepared a surprise for the World Government and the Navy Headquarters."

Shiro's eyes sparkled with a cunning glint as he glanced at the submarine.

"Yo~ What a frightening speed. Why do I always run into these kinds of monsters? It's truly a headache!"

Kizaru muttered, unaware that he was about to fall right into Shiro's trap. Even dealing with Enel alone was a massive hassle for him.
