Chapter 132 A Devastating Battle
After about a day's sailing, Kaido and his crew finally made it close to the legendary Birka Island.
"The island's outline is already visible!!"
"Hey hey hey, move the boat closer!!"
Several tens of minutes later.
The boat arrived at the island's shore.
Since the entire island was made up of island clouds, there was no need to worry about the ships being damaged by running aground, so Kaido simply had his men ram the ships onto the shore.
Olga and Moria were the first to jump from the bow.
"Yo-ho! We're finally here!!"
"Hehehe, I've heard that the people here are very xenophobic. I'd like to see just how xenophobic they are!"
The gangway was lowered, and Kaido led a group of people down slowly.
"Hey, you two, let's discuss it. Who will stay behind to guard the ship, and who will come with me to the island?"
"what?!"
Olga and Moria screamed at the same time.
"We're still supposed to guard the ship?!"
"What? Do you have any objections?"
Kaido's expression darkened, and the two little ones immediately shook their heads like rattles.
"No, no..."
"How about this, to be fair, the two of you will guard the ship together, and I'll lead the team into the island by myself, how about that?"
Olga and Moria's expressions froze, and they somewhat regretted their earlier doubts.
Faced with Kaido's suggestion at this moment, they clearly had no choice but to accept it.
"Don't be discouraged!"
Kaido gazed into the depths of the island and sneered:
"Given the island's isolationist attitude, even if you stay here and don't move, there will be people who deliberately come to cause trouble."
"So even when guarding the ship, there's never a lack of fun!"
Upon hearing this, Olga and Moria immediately beamed with joy.
"Hehehe..."
"Hehehehe..."
"Captain, please rest assured! We will do everything in our power to protect the ship!!" x2
"Uro ro ro..."
Kaido smiled and began leading 800 of the 1000 people on this trip along the left, searching for a way into the town.
They had only traveled a few hundred meters, and the ships had not yet disappeared from sight, when a group of special winged guards crawling on the ground appeared in front of Kaido and his party.
As soon as they saw that Kaido and his crew didn't have wings, they knew that they must be from Qinghai.
So he stood up.
The captain of the guards stepped forward and said, "People of Qinghai! This island does not welcome you! Please leave as soon as possible!"
"You have 10 minutes! For every minute you exceed this time, each of you will have to hand over 100 million Escudera coins (10,000 Berries)!"
Hearing this outrageous and impolite demand, Kaido sneered, "What if I choose to refuse?"
"Then let's go to war!!"
The guards with wings on their backs held their spears, each fitted with a special shell, level, their eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Ura ura ura ura... Little ones, did you all hear that?!"
“┗|艹皿艹|┛嗷！！”
The pirates behind Kaido cheered, their killing intent surging even stronger.
"Kill them!!"
"kill!!"
Kaido waved his hand, and 800 pirates swarmed forward.
Laro, who was traveling with them, was completely stunned. Did they really start fighting without warning?!
Well, thinking back carefully, it seems that was the case when they fought the Shandians.
Kaido transformed into a blue dragon and flew into the battlefield, stunning everyone. Afterward, they were all tied up.
800 pirates against a few dozen guards of Bika Island.
On average, there are only 1 out of every 10 pirates who can get a share, and their opponents can't even get one.
Therefore, even though the guards' special weapons did cause some trouble for the pirates, the battle did not last more than 10 minutes.
All the guards on Bika Island were killed.
"Hurry up, clean up the battlefield, let's move on."
A few minutes later, all the corpses were thrown into the sea, and Kaido and his crew continued on their way.
Upon arriving at the town's main entrance, even more guards had formed a military formation.
The leader, seemingly the island's lord, roared, "Evil invaders! If you don't want to die, leave now! Bica Island does not welcome you!!"
"If you don't leave, God will judge you! You will all perish here!"
Kaido ignored the leader's ravings and simply used his Observation Haki to sense the number of enemies.
The total number of soldiers is approximately 300.
The island has a total population of approximately 3700.
On average, one in ten people were conscripted, which can be considered an act of militarism.
However, this is also a unique feature of the One Piece world.
After all, many islands are quite small.
Without mobilizing the entire population to fight and uniting all forces to protect the island, it would be difficult to resist invading pirates.
Besides using his Observation Haki to count the number of enemy troops, Kaido also discovered some interesting things on the island.
Kaido, who had originally planned to waste more time and make his move more legitimate, immediately asked only one question: "I'm giving you one chance: submission, or death?"
"Invaders! You're the ones who deserve to die!!"
Upon hearing this, Kaido simply waved his hand.
"Kill them!!"
“┗|艹皿艹|┛嗷！！”
Upon receiving the order, the Beast Pirates immediately launched a swarm attack like hungry wolves.
With 800 people against 300, the number of people was almost twice that of the opponent.
In terms of weaponry, although the people of Bica Island have specially made shell weapons, the flintlock guns used by the pirates are not much worse.
In addition, Kaido occasionally drains the enemy's life force to replenish his own wounded members.
Final result.
The battle ends in 30 minutes.
Of the 800 Beast Pirates, more than half were injured, but none were killed.
Of the 300 guards on Bika Island, more than 150 were killed in action, and the rest, almost all wounded, chose to surrender.
"Uro ro ro..."
Kaido walked up to the "god" on Birka Island.
"Where is God's judgment?"
The "god" of Bika Island turned away, clearly not wanting to discuss the topic further with Kaido.
"Uro ro ro..."
Kaido chuckled mockingly, too lazy to bother with this "god" anymore.
After leaving 200 men to guard the prisoners and clean up the battlefield, he led the remaining 600 men into the town.
"Gather everyone on the island! I need to find something!!"
"Yes!!"
The 600 pirates quickly dispersed within the town.
Large numbers of people from Bika Island were forcibly driven to the square in the center of the island.
In this process, the pirates will inevitably resort to dirty tricks.
Putting rare items into one's own pocket is a basic practice.
Kaido is now choosing to let things go.
After all, pirates are not an army, and besides, the army in this era wasn't much better than the pirates.
Even in the Marine Headquarters, apart from the troops led by that particular admiral, most of the others are unconventional pirates who shout about justice.
Therefore, Kaido plans to gradually implement discipline measures for the pirates after establishing a formal base on the Grand Line.
