MTL - Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!-Chapter 229 man crying

Update: In this defensive move around Alabasta, there's actually one thing Dalton doesn't quite understand.

Alabasta's territory is too vast.

Not counting the sea area, in terms of land area alone, Alabasta is more than ten times the size of the Drum Kingdom.

A country with such a terrain, although it is quite difficult to defend, if it really wants to break out a "war" with him, it is actually a very difficult thing for the attackers of the war.

Because there should not be any force on this sea, with such a large-scale force, to attack such a "long" coastline in all aspects.

Therefore, if you want to attack Alabasta from the outside, there must be a so-called "main attack direction".

At the same time, from a strategic point of view, there are many "inevitable" elements in the choice of this active direction.

As I said before, Alabasta's territory is too vast.

Unless the Alabasta side completely gives up resistance, it is impossible to break through the country in a short time.

Therefore, the side attacking Alabasta must be prepared to fight in the territory of other countries for a long time.

In this way, elements such as "supply lines", "acclimatization", "special terrain", etc., must be considered by the attackers in the plan.

This is not a problem that can be solved by "strong power" alone.

Dalton once heard his old king tell a story about his youth.

There was once a king who led an army to attack a Snow Country on Winter Island. That army swept across many countries in the South China Sea, and it has almost become synonymous with invincibility.

But in the end, most of the army died on that Winter Island!

This is one of the many differences between "war" and "battle".

For a country with a vast territory, unless it is in danger of subjugation, it is difficult to threaten the inland cities. At most, wars break out in the coastal cities.

That being the case, why not relocate the residents of the coastal cities to the inland cities?

Therefore, in Dalton's view, Rowan seems to have no reason to rashly arrange for the residents of Alabasta to go to the bottom of the sea for refuge.

Although those "undersea bubble shelters" built with the help of the murlocs are indeed a unique idea in this sea, Dalton still feels that there is no need to waste money and people.

After all, the economic losses caused by the "all-people evacuation" are difficult for civilians to make up for in months or even years.

But Dalton's idea is not to "refute" Ryan Rowan.

After all, he was someone who had witnessed what Ryan Rowan did, so Dalton was just wondering why Rowan did these things.

Dalton thought so.

If you ask Rowan face to face, the other party should answer your doubts with a smile.

But it is a pity, so the time is short, the first time Dalton came to Alabasta, he received a notice from the Alabasta King Army: Ryan Rowan hoped that they would be here on the spot.

So what can be done?

Dalton smiled helplessly, and then began to seriously arrange the work of arming.

Time will give him the answer.

If time can't give it, so will Ryan Rowan in hindsight.

...

As it turns out, Dalton's idea does make sense.

Because that's the most "normal" way of thinking about war.

But Dalton didn't expect one thing, that is, whether it is himself, or the old king who told him the story of Winter Island, or the army in the old king's story, they are still "normal" people after all.

Above this sea, in addition to those "normal people" who can use "normal thinking" to figure out their actions, there are also a group of people——

They are "not normal".

Or to be more precise, they are "abnormal" beings in this sea.

Such a person cannot use the thinking of a normal person to speculate, because it is wrong from the fundamental starting point, and how can the result of the inference be correct?

Ryan Rowan does.

[Beasts] Kaido is the same.

...

"island!"

"Flying!"

"In the sky, an island is flying towards us!"

When Dalton heard these exclamations from the lookout next to him, he knew in his heart why Ryan Rowan would go to great pains to arrange such a large-scale evacuation of the whole people.

Because the so-called "four emperors" represent the most incomprehensible "abnormalities" in this sea!

Dalton took out the binoculars around his waist and looked up.

Through the double blessing of the telescope and the animal-type devil fruit ability, Dalton can see more things than the lookout.

It was a quirky island with a hill in the shape of a horn and a skull, and many figures could be vaguely seen on it.

Dalton's ears moved, and the animal-based devil fruit also brought him extremely sharp hearing.

He vaguely heard that there were many noisy sounds coming from the strange island, as if there were many people on it.

And among those noises, there were a lot of metal friction sounds.

weapon?

Yes, it should be a weapon.

Bad visitor...

Dalton frowned, and immediately arranged for someone to report the abnormality here to Rowan, and at the same time picked up the telescope in his hand to continue to observe.

Suddenly, Dalton noticed that a burly figure was sitting on the bulge at the very front of the island.

Black-haired shawl, with a pair of long horns like dragon horns, a long beard like a dragon's beard on his mouth, and a dragon scale tattoo on his left arm.

The upper body is naked, and there is an X-shaped scar on the right abdomen.

That's an unmistakably iconic look.

That person is one of the four emperors, [Beasts] Kaido!

At this moment, Kaido is holding his own wine gourd with the word "天" in his hand, and drinking with his head up.

As he drank, he covered his eyes, tears gushing from his fingers.

"Wow!"

This terrifying Fourth Emperor is actually crying at this moment!

"joker...joker!"

Kaido cried very wantonly, not caring about his image at all.

In other words, no one dared to make irresponsible remarks about Kaido's indecent image.

"Joker, there is only one reason for your defeat, and that is that you are too weak!"

Kaido muttered to himself aloud, not stingy with his grief.

"Let me avenge you!"

Suddenly, Kaido's eyes widened, and his gaze fell directly in the direction of Alabasta.

This scene made Dalton's heart tremble as he was already prepared.

That is a sense of fear brought about by the absolute strength gap~www.novelbuddy.com~ makes people fall into an ice cave!

Is he looking at me?

No, not right.

Dalton soon noticed something was different.

Kaido's gloomy eyes were not looking at him, but at him—that is, behind Dalton.

what's behind me?

Dalton also looked back.

I saw a figure standing slowly in the desert.

——

What a "huge" figure!

That's a gravel giant!
