Journey to Marineford

Chapter 79 Journey to Marineford

Early the next morning, Kaido, Rod and the others regrouped. The Marineford War was about to begin, and it was time for them to set off.

"Are you sure you don't want me to come along this time?" Yamato asked, standing to the side.

"It's alright, you don't need to this time. You and the Three Calamities will protect Wano Country together," Rhodes said.

"Okay! Then be careful on your journey, I won't say anything else," Yamato said.

"You brat, let's head to Marineford, the Marine Headquarters, now!"

"Even if we fly, it will take us a full day and night to travel from Wano Country," Kaido said impatiently.

Tch, what a bastard. Every time Kaido sees him and Yamato being so close, he feels inexplicably annoyed.

It's so strange! I really wanted them to get together before, but why do I get inexplicably angry every time I see this guy being intimate with her?

It must be because he was getting too close to that woman with purplish-black skin and red eyes, making him uncomfortable.

That bastard, after getting Yamato, he still goes around flirting with other women?

"Alright! Let's go! Your Majesty, we'll set off now, taking that skeleton with us. This time, it'll just be the four of us," Rhodes said.

"I can't wait!" Sylvanas smiled, slung her bow and arrows over her shoulder, and came to Rhodes' side.

A giant blue dragon soared into the sky, carrying Rod, Sylvanas, and Brook, who was already bound like a mummy, away from Wano Country.

"Damn brat, why do I have to transform into a dragon and fly there with you?"

"Isn't your teleportation ability pretty useful?" Kaido said with great dissatisfaction as he flew through the air.

What's going on? This Yonko is practically being used as a means of transportation, isn't he?

You clearly have a faster way, why don't you just use that magic ability to teleport?

It arrived in a flash, why did it take me so long to fly?

"Don't say that, Kaido. You should know that casting spatial magic is very troublesome. What if the positioning is wrong?"

It's very likely that you'll be teleported to an unknown place. For example, to the deep sea.

"Or perhaps you'd be transported to outer space, or even suddenly appear in a very dangerous place," Rhodes said with a smile.

He can indeed use spatial teleportation, but he needs a pre-made location marker.

He had only learned this technique from the blood elf mage of Silvermoon City, and currently could only passively inscribe it for location teleportation, and he had never been to Marineford, the Marine Headquarters.

Without leaving safe spatial coordinates there, activating teleportation ability rashly would leave you with no idea where you'd end up. So, it's safest to ride Kaido himself there.

"Tch! You can turn into a dragon and fly too, can't you?" Kaido said.

"That's right! I do have the ability, but I don't know the way! You're the only one who can get there as quickly as possible, and didn't you say so?"

"We need to capture that Blackbeard guy and take him to Wano Country, then have him help us retrieve Orochi's Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit," Rhodes said.

After learning that Blackbeard could steal other people's Devil Fruit abilities, Kaido also set his sights on Blackbeard, as this ability was extremely useful.

"Once we get to the battlefield, I won't have time to take care of you, kid. You'd better protect yourself," Kaido said.

"Don't worry! I have my own way of protecting myself. I've left spatial coordinates in Wano Country, so I can return to Wano Country in an instant by using those coordinates," Rhodes said.

Just kidding, Wano Country is my current stronghold, I must have marked the spatial coordinates there.

If we encounter danger, we can simply activate our teleportation ability to get there, and take Her Majesty the Queen with us on the way.

As for Kaido! How could Kaido be in danger? Besides, this guy can fly; he can run back by himself.

Given Kaido's current strength, Rhodes really doesn't need to worry about his safety.

"Then I'm relieved. You'll be coming with me this time, and you'll probably be wanted too. Try not to show too much of your abilities, especially your Devil Fruit powers."

"If possible, try not to use it," Kaido said.

The Navy won't allow another Kaido to appear, so it's best to keep Rhodes' abilities a secret.

Rhodes nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Sylvanas, you might end up with a bounty on your head from the Navy too!" Rhodes said.

"I don't care. There's only one thing I care about: how to take away all of this slave's abilities," Sylvanas said, patting Brook's skull.

"Waaah!" Brooke, who was tied up like a dumpling and had a strip of tape over his mouth, began to struggle frantically.

Help, Captain! If you don't show up soon, I'm doomed!

Waaah! I was hoping to use the power of music to help this lady heal her emotional wounds!

It wasn't until the very end that Brook discovered the other party was an old monster who had lived for over a thousand years, even though Brook himself always considered himself an old man.

Compared to the age of this Banshee Queen, he was just an ordinary little kid.

Moreover, the other side rules over a country inhabited by the undead, teeming with countless undead creatures.

She calls herself the Banshee Queen, and she's practically a carbon copy of Moria, with a penchant for manipulating zombies, skeletons, ghosts, and the like.

No, no, no, she's far more terrifying than Moria. Moria can only control low-level zombies, but the undead under her command have their own consciousness.

Seriously, why would they target me? Is it just because I feel like a living person?

The group of female dark rangers under her command were also very jealous of her abilities.

They always find new ways to torment him. When will this suffering ever end?

"Don't rush things. Haste makes waste. This time, you definitely won't be disappointed," Rod said.

"I'm looking forward to it. I've also prepared the Death Knight transformation, along with a four-meter-long Frost Rune Sword and matching Death Knight armor. Unfortunately, I can't get his mount sorted out," Sylvanas said.

Upon learning that the other party was also a giant, Sylvanas ordered the artisans of Undercity to...

They designed and forged a massive rune sword, then used technology and a rune forge captured from the Scourge to inscribe runes.

As Forsaken who separated from the Scourge, they possess considerable Scourge technology.

In particular, during the attack on Naxxramas, they obtained a great deal of knowledge about the Death Knights in the residence of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

It's a pity we didn't manage to capture this important floating city of the Scourge.

There was nothing they could do; the Forsaken were merely playing a minor role. The real main force consisted of the elite troops of the Alliance and the Horde, as well as members of the Knights of the Silver Hand.

Moreover, if it weren't for the protection of the tribe and the persuasion of a certain high lord, the paladins of the Silver Hand at that time, and even the Forsaken under her command, would have evolved along with her.

To be honest, this was also her first attempt at creating a Death Knight.

"Okay! Just do your best," Rod said.

Sylvanas isn't very wealthy yet, since a certain Jailer hasn't contacted her yet!

She also lacked the Valkyr forces to resurrect the undead and increase the number of the Forsaken.

The Forgotten Ones of today are mostly free undead who have broken free from the shackles of natural disasters, or lost souls who have accidentally become undead creatures.

However, some necromancers among the Forsaken have participated in the work of the Death Knights.

However, it has never been used in recent years. In recent years, the Forsaken have strictly enforced the order not to convert the undead.

They are the Forsaken, who have survived to this day in order to seek revenge against the Lich King. If the living are turned into undead creatures, then what difference is there between them and the Scourge?

This time, Sylvanas made an exception to help Rhodes.

Even the method for converting Blood Death Knights was secretly devised by one of her subordinates, a fact unknown to many Forsaken in Undercity.

This time, it's to help Rhodes transform into a Death Knight.

Sylvanas has truly broken many precedents. If some of the Forsaken were to learn the truth, her prestige as queen would likely suffer a significant drop.

Rhodes saw all of this.

"My men assured me that the conversion ritual for Blood Death Knights is all set up and there shouldn't be any problems," Sylvanas said.

Moreover, given her own power of death, there is no problem with this matter.

"Thank you, Sylvanas!" Rhodes nodded and said.

For the next period of time, Rhodes and Sienvanas rode on Kaido's dragon head.

Looking down at the vast ocean, one gets a sense of riding a dragon and wandering among immortals.

Riding atop Kaido's dragon head, looking down at the vast ocean, the view was truly breathtaking.

After a day and a night of flying, Kaido, Rod and the others finally arrived at their destination, Marineford, the Marine Headquarters.

At this point, the Whitebeard Pirates had launched their attack, and the entire war was at a fever pitch.

Countless pirates and marines clashed. The captains of the Whitebeard Pirates' various divisions also displayed their unique abilities, engaging in fierce clashes with the marines, while the Seven Warlords of the Sea stood aside on the high platform.

"Kill them! We must rescue Ace!"

"We must rescue Captain Ace today."

"Dad's watching us! Give it your all, kids!"

The Whitebeard Pirates, led by their captains, are launching a fierce attack on the Navy's lines.

At this moment, no one knew that a huge blue dragon was slowly approaching.
