# Chapter 609: Consecutive Variables, Blazer
"As expected, they've come out?"
Eerie, deep blue flames spread strangely across the Battlefield.
Corpses lying on the ground, whether Marines or Pirates, one by one turned into skeletons and stood up under the effect of the strange flames.
Each one, either bare-handed or wielding weapons, charged towards the World Government's Marines or Army.
In the blink of an eye, the Pirate Alliance Army gained tens of thousands of troops.
And these were the difficult-to-deal-with Undead Legion.
The ground trembled in the Pirate Alliance Army's Rear Area.
A dense chill emanated from the air, continuously spreading.
An Undead Legion of several thousand was approaching.
Leading them was none other than "King of Hell" Blazer, a Sea Overlord of the past, who was still alive and well today.
And the Undead Legion behind him was incomparable to the "Recruits" on the Battlefield.
Most were elites who had died in battle on the Battlefield during the late Rocks Era, the era before the previous era.
Among them were not a few Great Pirates.
"What a familiar aura, I thought you would forever sleep Underground."
Blazer looked at the entire Battlefield, unable to help but sigh with emotion.
He had thought the Undead Legion behind him would remain buried underground forever, until his own death.
After the Battle of God Valley ended, he had gone to the New World North, specifically to an Island in the Isolation Zone between the Big Mom Pirates and the Pluto Pirates, and lived in seclusion.
The Undead Legion he had formed during the war also slept on the Island with him.
Although his strength remained at its peak, he knew there was no longer a place for him on Great Sea.
These young monsters would not allow an Old Man like him to compete with them.
Furthermore, his heart had grown old, and he no longer possessed the passion for hegemony.
After all, he had already been a Sea Overlord, and now he would have to compete with a bunch of juniors.
Blazer agreed to Shiki's invitation.
Although not many factions on Great Sea dared to provoke him, holed up on a Small Island.
But he would not refuse Shiki, the current Sea Overlord.
After all, the Flying Pirates completely possessed the ability to kill him.
The longer he lived, the less he wanted to die.
After all, he was already alone and without support; being a rich man was quite good, and he had inexhaustible treasure.
From time to time, Young Pirates who didn't know of his existence would stumble onto the Small Island on Great Sea, providing him with some amusement.
Although years of comfortable living had caused Blazer's combat awareness to decline to some extent, Blazer still possessed terrifying strength.
His non-human body, tempered by undead fire, had not weakened with the passage of time.
Dealing with a Marine Admiral was no problem at all.
Furthermore, he possessed an Undead Legion that had experienced several great battles.
The help he provided to the Pirate Alliance Army was not merely that of a Top Tier Combatant.
Across the entire Battlefield, countless people had made the sacrifice; every corpse was a source of troops for the Undead Legion.
The Undead Legion, which had once shaken Great Sea, was now unleashed again.
Once it erupted, it would expand like a snowball.
"Kill! This might be the last chance!"
Blazer waved his hand, and the Undead Legion behind him charged towards the Battlefield from his sides.
After all, he had only promised Shiki to act once.
And what about himself?
He charged directly towards the Guard Member who had originally been blocked by Gaban.
As for Gaban, he only needed to face That Person, the God's Guard Candidate.
Licking his lips, facing this God's Guard Candidate whom he had been battling for quite some time, the advantage was completely on his side.
Dealing with such an enemy was very easy for Gaban.
After all, this would not threaten his life.
An Agent with Quasi-Admiral combat power saw his master in danger and immediately broke away from his opponent to help deal with Gaban.
However, Gaban still didn't take him seriously.
If it were a Top Tier Combatant, Gaban might feel a bit of trouble, but what did a mere Quasi-Admiral level combatant strength mean to him?
So.
"All of you, go to hell!"
Gaban furiously swung his twin axes.
The World Government's ambush of the Roger Pirates back then had killed so many of their companions, and the grief from that had always been hidden deep within his heart.
He would take this opportunity to get revenge, carrying the blood feud from the past!
As for the Celestial Dragons, wasn't he killing Celestial Dragons?
His dominant battle axe was coated with Conqueror's Haki, and the terrifying strength instantly severely wounded the Agent who came to provide reinforcements.
He directly eliminated one.
The remaining God's Guard Candidate showed fear on his face.
He felt the terror of the monster before him.
Roger's death had allowed Gaban to break free from a restraint, and in his anger, he awakened Conqueror's Haki.
For a strongman like him, he naturally possessed such potential.
It was just that he hadn't awakened it before.
And the technique of Conqueror's Haki infusion, which he understood very well, he could easily master.
Undoubtedly, Gaban's strength was even greater, and he was still at his peak condition.
The World Government possessed numerous strongmen.
These God's Guard Candidates, each one was an important member of a Celestial Dragon Family.
For this reason, each Family naturally sent powerful combatants to protect them.
Although they did not send out all of their foundation, the various Celestial Dragon Families undoubtedly paid a heavy price.
Surrounding these Celestial Dragons, the minds of many agents were focused on the important members of the Celestial Dragon Family they belonged to.
This was their primary mission.
As for dealing with Pirates, that was secondary.
To some extent, while protecting the Celestial Dragons, they were not fully utilizing their role.
Luxuriously dressed and protected by others, the identity of these God's Guard Candidates was obvious.
Some Pirates who cherished their life would deliberately avoid them.
While some strongmen were directly excited and made them their primary target.
Especially the Lunarian Tribe members who had a blood feud with the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.
"Calamity Flame" King of the Beast Pirates.
"Mist" Sasumu, Fleet Captain of the Flying Pirates.
Several Cadres of the Demon King Pirates.
All of their targets were those Celestial Dragons.
For the God's Guard Candidates with weaker strength, even the agents guarding them were at most Quasi-Admiral level combatant strength.
Their strength was indeed powerful, but as long as one was held back, dealing with the other became much easier.
And they were not alone; behind them stood the Top-Tier Pirate Crews of the New World, and they had their companions to help.
Aside from one God's Guard Candidate with Top Tier Combatant Strength who made the sacrifice, the war had continued until now, and more than one God's Guard Candidate had actually died, but not many people paid attention.
No matter how high their identity, on a Battlefield as chaotic as this, without sufficient strength, ultimately not many people paid attention.
But now, there were still three monsters facing an ambush.
"Golden Lion" Shiki, Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle, and Ulquiorra.
Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle and Ulquiorra flexibly shifted the Battlefield towards the Regal Mammoth.
The Regal Mammoth's enormous scale meant that a single casual blow possessed destructive power.
For them, three against four was not a problem at all.
For monsters like them, the least concern was recovery power.
Only Shiki remained, facing two of the Five Elders.
However, he did not engage in a deadly battle, but instead relied on his aerial combat advantage and Devil Fruit ability to constantly maneuver, minimizing his consumption as much as possible.
As if sensing something, Shiki avoided Saint Nusjuro's slash and blocked Saint Warcury's assassination attempt.
His gaze turned towards a distant corner.
There was still one person who hadn't made a move!
