Pokémon and Science Combo Move

As Marines from the same era as Whitebeard, Sengoku and Garp understood Whitebeard's terror more than Borsalino and Sakazuki did.

Although Kaido was just a rookie at that time, seeing him now able to clash with Whitebeard like this, they could indirectly gauge his strength.

Moreover, a few days ago, the order was to decide whether or not to attack based on the situation. Sakazuki's sudden attack could barely be said to have taken advantage of the opportunity, but as time passed, the orders from the World Government changed.

"Garp, this is the latest order from above. Operation is canceled, everyone is to return, and you must bring those two back to me."

"What happened?"

Sengoku's tone made Garp sense something unusual. It seemed like something significant had occurred to prompt the urgent change in strategy from the World Government.

"Well, the reconnaissance team sent by the World Government to Wano Country has been wiped out."

"Wiped out? Are the people Kaido left behind there really that strong?"

"It's not about strong or weak; it's that they couldn't even get close to the borders of Wano Country."

If they were facing Whitebeard, this situation wouldn't be hard for them to understand. He could cause a tsunami on the sea, which was almost unstoppable. Before the fleet could even get close, they would be forced back by the tsunami. If he set his mind to leave, there was simply no way to stop him.

Unless there was a reason to force him into a fight to the death, it was practically impossible to annihilate a monster like Whitebeard.

Roger surrendered voluntarily, Golden Lion stormed Marineford alone, and the Rocks engaged in a decisive battle at God Valley. Among the many battles in Marines history, there were too few instances of defeating powerful enemies at sea.

World was defeated because of the Cipher Pol agents' scheme.

It is precisely because of the abilities of these monsters that make Marines extremely cautious when carrying out operations. But what happened in Wano Country was not normal. According to the latest report, they were attacked by bio-weapons.

...

Not long ago, in the waters near Wano Country, probably while Yamato was still sound asleep on Genesect's back, most people were watching the broadcast of the battle on Onigashima, but the lookout posts didn't let down their vigilance.

The battle between Whitebeard and Kaido escalated, and the situation on the battlefield was gradually sent back through reconnaissance. Kaido and Whitebeard wouldn't be able to break away for a while, that was the conclusion they reached.

However, the intelligence from the World Government was much more comprehensive than that of the pirates. They could estimate how many people Kaido had taken with him and how many remained in Wano Country.

Though Kaido wasn't present, an equally terrifying Arceus' whereabouts remained unaccounted for. According to previous reports, Arceus often left Wano Country. Now, whether he was present or not had to be tested to be known.

In this situation, a reconnaissance ship carrying some agents headed towards Wano Country.

"Lord Arceus, they couldn't resist after all. Their ship is already approaching."

The aerial team brought back firsthand information. Even though many of those agents knew Geppo, normal people wouldn't use it continuously as it greatly drained their stamina, so the sky remained a blind spot for them.

But the aerial team is different. Millennial Dragon is a creature that can freely soar through the sky, carrying several scouts effortlessly.

Although the previous scout team captain, Mandrell, had already left, the team still existed. After Kaido left, they patrolled the outer seas of Wano Country, constantly conducting irregular scouting.

So, it didn't take long for that ship to be spotted.

"Since they dare to come, they have to take responsibility for their actions. Queen, you are authorized to use those things. It's a good opportunity to test their effectiveness."

"Don't worry, Lord Arceus. They are the pinnacle of my achievements over these years."

He's Queen, the designated scapegoat of the Beasts Pirates, one of the 3 Calamities, who enjoys extensive subsidies. He holds a high position within the Beasts Pirates as one of the All-Stars. Although Kaido didn't bring him along this time, his strength cannot be underestimated.

The titles "Conflagration" and "Phantom" are based on their abilities. The flames that engulf the battlefield and the illusions that deceive the senses have caused them considerable trouble. However, overshadowed by their halo, people have gradually forgotten that Queen's title is "Plague."

Whether it was the original Brachiosaurus or the modified Tropius, neither has anything to with this title. Aside from Queen's own strength, this title stems more from his research.

However, this achievement didn't hold much significance when facing opponents of the same level. When conquering other islands, their goal is to occupy it, not destroy it. So, Queen's attack methods, which can destroy reputation, are naturally prohibited.

But facing the World Government's agents, Arceus had no goodwill whatsoever, so Queen's restrictions were lifted.

This was not only to test Queen's new products but also to check out a new combat method.

After receiving the order, Queen didn't fly away from Onigashima but instead headed to the gathering place of the Mareanie on the outskirts.

"Little guys, this is what Lord Arceus wants. Just like we practiced before, deploy these things."

By now, Queen had restored his reputation among the Mareanie. He had obtained many branches of Corsola from Pierman and had earned forgiveness from the Mareanie by feeding them.

Then he distributed a bunch of small balls to several Mareanie. These were special resin processed from the sap of trees cultivated to grow Berries. With further research, members of the Beasts Pirates had long discovered that apart from Berries, the trees that grew them also held significant utility value.

Even the branches from these trees emitted a special woody fragrance when used for roasting meat.

Sealed within these resin balls were the Plague Bullets manufactured by Queen, a mutated variety created by combining the poison of Mareanie with those of Weezing.

Then some Mareanie submerged into the sea and swam in the direction given by Queen. After living here for some time, they had already become familiar with the sea currents and the peripheral areas.

The people aboard the World Government ships did not notice the Mareanie swimming deep in the sea. While they remained vigilant against unknown situations, their alertness was toward people. Mareanie, being similar to octopuses when moving through the seawater, went completely unnoticed by them through the water.

Then the people in the cabin noticed that there were suddenly several holes in the ship, which was the work of the Mareanie. Wooden ships were still mainstream in this world, and these mass-produced ships weren't made of any expensive wood, so the Mareanie were quickly able to make several holes.

Before they could even start repairing the ship, Mareanie's Spike Cannon had already shot into the cabin through the holes. At the same time, a group of Mareanie climbed up to the deck amidst the chaos and shot their spikes at the targets. Thus, the thing that Queen had created began to spread inside...
