Amidst the roar of cannon fire, the pirates revealed bloodthirsty smiles.
The scent of battle exhilarated them; their eyes gleamed with a sanguinary light, as if they already tasted the blood of combat.
"Fire!"
A towering pirate captain brandished his greatsword, roaring madly.
Hundreds of cannons from the pirate ships fired simultaneously, instantly unleashing a deafening roar that reverberated across the entire sea, like a thunderclap in the sky.
The moment the cannons fired in unison, the entire sky seemed to be dyed red, and thick smoke billowed out, carrying the acrid smell of gunpowder.
Amidst the cannon fire, the pirates shouted excitedly, their voices drowned out by the roar, but their fervor and excitement remained undiminished.
Their eyes gleamed with a frenzied light as they fed cannonballs into the breaches, firing them out relentlessly.
"Boom—"
The cannonballs whistled through the sky, carrying a destructive force, heading straight for the G5 branch's defense line.
Each cannonball was like an emissary of death, drawing black arcs in the sky before slamming violently into its target.
On the pirate ships, the gunners worked with the precision of machines.
Their movements were swift and practiced, each step completed with fluid grace.
Sweat streamed down their cheeks, but none stopped their work.
Each firing was accompanied by a violent jolt of the cannon barrel and a strong impact on their bodies, but they paid no heed, simply repeating the process of loading, aiming, and firing.
"Keep firing! Don't give them a chance to breathe!"
The pirate waved his weapon, shouting loudly, his voice particularly resonant amidst the cannon fire.
On another pirate ship, a tall gunner gripped a cannonball tightly, staring straight ahead.
He rammed the cannonball into the breach and yanked the firing lever; the massive recoil caused him to lean back slightly, but he quickly steadied himself, his eyes fixed on the front.
"Boom—"
Another loud bang, and the cannonball flew out, heading straight for the G5 branch.
The decks of the pirate ships trembled slightly under the continuous barrage, and the hulls swayed with each firing.
The pirates seemed particularly excited by the shaking, their laughter and shouts mingling with the roar to create a strange harmony.
"That's satisfying! Let those marines see how powerful we are!"
One pirate shouted excitedly, almost crushing the cannonball in his hand.
However, the fierce cannon fire did not cause the marines to retreat.
On the G5 branch's defense line, Kuzan calmly commanded the troops, his gaze sharp.
"Maintain formation, concentrate fire and retaliate!"
His voice was calm and forceful, instilling endless confidence in the marines.
Toki was also commanding on the front lines, her eyes gleaming with determination.
"All turrets, aim at the pirate ships ahead, retaliate!"
The G5 branch's turrets began to respond to the pirate attack, and dense cannon fire intertwined in the sky, forming a barrier of flames.
Cannonballs collided in the air, explosions rang out incessantly, fragments scattered, and flames soared.
The pirates' frenzy and the marines' resilience formed a fierce confrontation on this sea.
The roar of cannon fire echoed endlessly across the sea, each explosion seeming to proclaim the cruelty and decisiveness of this battle.
The entire battlefield was shrouded in smoke and flames, and the intensity of the battle continued to escalate.
The pirates busily loaded ammunition, their movements practiced and swift.
Every gunner stared intently ahead, their eyes filled with determination and madness.
Cannonballs flew out one after another, targeting the G5 branch's defense line.
On the decks of the pirate ships, other pirates were responsible for defending against the cannonballs fired by the marines.
They used huge shields and special net-like devices to try to intercept the incoming projectiles.
Although each interception was accompanied by a huge impact, they showed no fear, but instead, it further stimulated their fighting spirit.
"Hahaha, you think you can stop us with this little firepower?"
One pirate laughed loudly, forcefully waving the shield in his hand, knocking down a cannonball.
However, not all cannonballs could be intercepted. Some cannonballs accurately hit the pirate ships, explosions rang out one after another, fragments splashed, and flames instantly engulfed parts of the deck.
The pirates roared amidst the explosions, their eyes devoid of fear, only filled with the desire for battle and hatred for the enemy.
"Keep firing! Don't give them a chance to breathe!"
On the pirate ships, the high-ranking members of the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates were also directing the battle intently.
They stood at the bow of the ship, calmly observing the situation on the battlefield.
Kaido and Big Mom's figures were like two mountains, bringing endless courage and strength to their subordinates.
Kaido looked coldly ahead, the huge club in his hand swaying slightly.
"These marines are really tenacious."
He said in a low voice, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
Big Mom laughed wildly, her laughter echoing across the battlefield.
"Crush them all for me!"
Her voice was full of rage and majesty.
The cannon fire intensified, and the entire battlefield was shrouded in smoke and flames.
On the sea, the two sides' fleets approached each other under the cover of cannon fire, and the intensity of the battle gradually escalated.
At the G5 branch, Kuzan and Toki commanded the marines to put up a tenacious resistance.
The marines did not retreat in the face of the fierce cannon fire, and their eyes were also filled with determination and fearlessness.
"Maintain formation, don't let them break through!"
Kuzan ordered loudly, his voice particularly calm and firm on the battlefield.
Toki waved the command sword in her hand, quickly mobilizing troops for defense and counterattack.
"Concentrate all firepower on the front, give them a hard blow!"
The two sides' cannon fire intertwined in the air into a sea of fire, and the intensity of the battle had reached a fever pitch.
Both the pirates and the marines showed unparalleled courage and determination in this life-and-death contest.
In the roar of cannon fire, the buildings of the G5 branch and the pirate ships were like fragile pieces of paper, ruthlessly torn apart by cannonballs.
Each explosion was accompanied by a huge shock wave, shaking the ground and the sea.
The buildings swayed under the fierce shelling, the walls began to crack, and bricks and stones flew everywhere.
A tall tower finally couldn't withstand the bombardment of several consecutive cannonballs and collapsed with a bang.
Rubbles and tiles scattered everywhere, and smoke and dust filled the air, as if a gray haze shrouded the entire battlefield.
The marines ran through the ruins, trying to find cover while desperately fighting back with the weapons in their hands.
At sea, the pirate ships were also suffering devastating blows.
Cannonballs fell like rain, and the huge explosions blew the hulls to pieces.
Planks and canvas were torn apart, flames spread rapidly, and a raging fire broke out on the entire deck.
The bow of the pirate ship was shattered by a direct hit from a cannonball, the huge crack expanded rapidly, and seawater poured frantically into the hull. The crew members screamed in horror, desperately trying to block the breach, but to no avail.
The hull began to tilt and eventually sank slowly into the sea, carrying countless wrecks and people's despair.
The mast was hit by cannon fire, and the broken mast crashed down, hitting the deck and causing chaos.
The pirates on the ship staggered in the violent shaking, and some were thrown directly into the sea.
The surviving pirates hurriedly picked up their weapons and tried to fight back, but their cannonballs seemed so insignificant that they could not stop the marines' offensive.
