Chapter 846: Observing the Battle from the Ruins
The turmoil in Mary Geoise did not affect the progress on the Battlefield.
The war had been ongoing for several hours.
Most of Marineford had turned into ruins.
A dense smell of gunpowder filled the air, and burning flames could be seen in many Areas.
Large numbers of Marine Soldiers continuously tried to put out the fires.
More people protected the Civilians in the Rear Area.
With the wind fueling the flames, and King, the arsonist, present, without the suppression of special abilities, the fires were difficult to suppress.
Fortunately, Borsalino had arrived at the Battlefield early.
As the only Strongman with aerial combat ability, he greatly alleviated the pressure on Marine Headquarters.
"Yasakani no Magatama!"
Countless streams of golden light burst forth, as if dyeing the entire Sky gold.
The dazzling light was filled with a dense killing intent.
Seeing this, King inwardly cursed.
He used the wings on his back to shield himself.
The next moment, countless lasers accurately struck his body.
When Borsalino became completely serious, Yasakani no Magatama was simply impossible to dodge.
Because the speed was too fast.
By the time your eyes saw the golden light, the lasers had already arrived.
Furthermore, these lasers seemed to have scopes attached, locking onto him completely.
On his pitch-black wings, streaks of scorching golden light spots appeared.
Boom boom boom!
King's body was covered by countless streams of golden light.
"What a terrifying Race, the Lunarian Tribe."
Looking at the black wings that unfolded again, Borsalino said with a solemn expression.
This was because King's body had only suffered minor injuries, which had no effect on King, who possessed powerful recovery power.
Borsalino had some understanding of the Lunarian Tribe's special talent.
The World Government had researched them and had relevant data.
Their powerful endurance, unique racial talent, coupled with the defense of Armament Haki, completely blocked his lasers.
In their battle, although Borsalino held the advantage due to his strength, it was very difficult to defeat King.
It was highly likely to turn into a prolonged entanglement.
And that was indeed the case.
After such a long great battle, both sides were somewhat tired.
Neither Borsalino nor King were fighting with their full seriousness.
For King, the moment Borsalino's figure appeared, targeting him and disrupting his operation to plunder the Marine Treasury, it meant the mission given to him by the Governor had failed.
Now, Marine Headquarters' objective had been achieved.
They could Evacuate at any time if they wished.
The war had reached the point where it was time to Evacuate.
Apart from "Pig Head Emperor" Krut, the condition of the other Pirates could be described as poor, due to continuous battle and stamina consumption.
Continuing the battle would put them at a disadvantage in the situation.
Despite having aerial superiority, Borsalino's arrival allowed Marine Headquarters to specifically counter them.
Admiral Sengoku, Fleet Admiral "Steel Bone" Kong, Chief of Staff Tsuru, Shirek, and other Strongmen of the Marines.
Although Marine Headquarters suffered heavy destruction, Goenitz and the others still couldn't truly threaten Marine Headquarters.
As the Residents in the Rear Area successfully Evacuated, the Marines could also invest more strength to deal with them.
Even Goenitz and Pain had no intention of fighting to the death.
The two of them barely moved, simply standing in the Sky.
With them not moving, Advisor Tsuru and the others didn't dare to act rashly.
Once someone planned to make a move, the other side would inevitably send someone to block them.
In the current situation, this was meaningless.
They were merely observing the great battles of the other few individuals.
The ones truly still in combat were actually only a few people.
Only King and Borsalino.
And "Pig Head Emperor" Krut, sent by the Monster Legion.
And "Pig Head Emperor" Krut exhibited terrifying war potential.
He was withstanding Admiral Sengoku head-on, and his condition had not shown any decline so far.
Their Battlefield had become a complete mess.
No matter what means Sengoku used, even joining forces with Kong, it was difficult to suppress Krut.
Even Goenitz and the others were somewhat curious about what was special about this new Monster that had emerged from the Monster Legion.
They watched their battle with great interest.
Even the Pig Head Human Army had stopped fighting.
After all, Crow Monster Klay wasn't foolish enough to watch the Pig Head Human Army be completely wiped out for nothing.
He cut his losses in advance when they were close to half, stopping the war.
The final result was naturally their live performance of a Gluttonous Feast, eating the corpses of their companions and many Marines, restoring their condition to peak.
Every member of the Pig Head Human Army was an Elite.
Evolving from Pig-type Beasts into Pig Head Humanoids, besides using "Pig Head Emperor" Krut as a template, it also required a large amount of mutant blood.
Achieving this required extensive killing.
They needed to accumulate enough energy to undergo transformation.
There were tens of thousands of Pig-type Beasts in the Jura Great Forest, but only about one thousand had evolved into Pig Head Humanoids so far.
This illustrated the terrifying nature of the Pig Head Human Army; even the weakest member was an absolute Elite.
A powerful Legion with an average height of five meters, and this was after shrinking.
Wild Beasts inherently possessed powerful innate advantage, and after evolving into human form, they could maximize their own strength.
Marine Headquarters suffered particularly heavy losses.
Many students from the so-called Elite Training Camp couldn't even deal with a single Pig Head Soldier, even when joining forces.
One could imagine how despair-inducing the scene was: these Pig Head Soldiers, after suffering significant injuries and having their stamina nearly depleted, would cover themselves in Armament Haki, endure their insignificant attacks, and then bend down to eat, restoring their stamina and injuries.
Facing the strong Pig Head General, even Gion, who had great confidence in her own strength, felt somewhat helpless and was even suppressed.
Because her strength was not yet strong enough, her destructive power was insufficient, and she couldn't threaten the Pig Head General, so she could only become his plaything.
Many people in the Marines also focused their attention on the Battlefield.
Watching "Pig Head Emperor" Krut, who radiated a fierce aura like a Demon God, brandishing his Great Saber and clashing head-on with Sengoku, who had transformed into a Great Buddha, they couldn't hide their inner shock.
Each time, "King of Monsters" Typhon's Monster Legion seemed to bring them huge surprises.
First, Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle, then "Ant King" Meruem, "Black-Winged Great Demon" Ulquiorra.
Followed by Super Monster, Regal Mammoth.
Now, "Pig Head Emperor" Krut had emerged.
His terrifying recovery power was akin to an Undying Body.
Even having his head cut off or his chest pierced through along with his heart couldn't harm Krut.
Even Chief of Staff Tsuru and the others keenly noticed that no matter what kind of injuries he endured, "Pig Head Emperor" Krut seemed to feel no pain sensation and was completely unaffected.
What made Sengoku and the others feel even more terrifying was that "Pig Head Emperor" Krut was gradually exhibiting the Learning Ability of a "human."
His somewhat stiff and savage movements were becoming increasingly decisive and he was gradually adapting.
What remained unchanged was his increasingly brutal aura and greedy gaze, staring intently at Sengoku.
It was as if he had already regarded Sengoku as his Prey, and foul-smelling saliva couldn't help but drool from his mouth.
