253 The two imperial regiments are about to fight?
🕑 Added 2025-08-02 13:05:08 +0000 UTCOr maybe we just don't know the full story yet—maybe that old woman and the lunatic had a falling out over something, and now they're on the brink of war.
Everyone was shocked!
If Akainu's judgment is correct...
Then the world is truly descending into chaos!
Why are wars breaking out everywhere?
Kronos and Whitebeard are about to fight. And now, even old rivals Kaido and Charlotte Linlin (Big Mom) are preparing to clash?
Many people sighed with relief, thinking, At least Shanks is an unambitious pirate. If even he started making moves, the seas would be in complete turmoil by now!
A Vice Admiral timidly raised his hand and asked,
"Then, Fleet Admiral Akainu... what do you think we should do next? Just let them fight it out?"
Akainu retorted,
"Do you have any better ideas? What else can we do?"
"Dealing with Kronos alone is already pushing us to the limit. We don’t have the manpower or resources to take on other factions as well, do we?"
His words struck a chord with everyone present.
Yes!
Just as Akainu said.
They no longer have any spare combat strength to interfere in the conflicts between the other Emperors.
After the Summit War, the Marines were left devastated. Their overall combat power has taken a massive hit.
There are very few available fighters left.
The number of Admirals has dropped from three to two.
This is the weakest the Marines have been in decades.
Even forty years ago, when they faced the Rocks Pirates, the situation wasn’t as dire as it is now.
Because in this era, there is someone far more terrifying than Rocks ever was...
That man is Kronos.
The Fifth Emperor!
Although the world refers to Kronos as the Fifth Emperor, within the Marines, they know—he’s far more dangerous than just a "fifth."
At this rate, it’s only a matter of time before Kronos replaces Roger as the most fearsome pirate of all time.
Just one statement from Roger before his death was enough to plunge the seas into chaos.
But if Kronos were to make a move, leveraging his overwhelming influence...
What kind of catastrophe would follow? Even the Vice Admirals dare not imagine it.
That's why the top priority of the Marines right now...
Is to figure out how to eliminate the Kamui Pirates!
Not just to avenge their humiliation…
But to stop Kronos and his crew from rising to absolute dominance.
On this point, the Five Elders are in complete agreement. They all believe that the Kamui Pirates must not be allowed to grow stronger.
In a few more years, the Kamui Pirates might actually be able to swallow the entire Marine force whole!
If it ever gets to that point, they might even have to consider joining forces with their long-time enemies—the Four Emperors—to stop Kronos.
At that moment, Chief of Staff Tsuru (Crane) quietly spoke:
"I've always had a hunch... that Kronos will surpass even Roger."
"That he will become the next Pirate King."
As soon as she said this, everyone erupted in shock!
Even Chief of Staff Tsuru thinks so highly of Kronos?
Claiming that he’ll surpass Gol D. Roger!?
Just as everyone was reeling from her words, Akainu suddenly stood up, his tone full of determination.
"No matter what happens... we have only one goal!"
He slammed the table with force and shouted the name—
"Kronos!"
