OPI Chapter 201: Titans' Last Stand
🕑 Added 2024-07-20 16:14:39 +0000 UTC[Boom!]
Body parts and a thick white mist flew out from the Dimensional Gate, crushing several advancing Wall Titans.
Immediately, an extremely violent shockwave erupted, shattering more than a dozen Wall Titans.
"Bwahaha, Whitebeard, I'm one step faster than you!" Garp shot out of the Dimensional Gate, laughing as he looked at Whitebeard coming up behind him.
"I don't remember ever saying that I want to compete with you in such a boring thing." Edward Newgate replied without interest and with a displeased expression, he grumbled. "Hmph, Sakazuki has made this place like this. I was thinking about enjoying the scenery of the other world, but now, even the air is filled with his stench!"
At this moment, two figures emerged from the Dimensional Gate, quickly passing by Whitebeard's sides.
"Kuahahahaha!" Crocodile laughed out loud and looked mockingly at Bullet, whose face was gloomy. "You are far behind in speed!"
"Hmph!" Bullet turned his head away without saying anything, ignoring Crocodile completely.
Next came the army officers. In addition to the Giant Troops led by King Farbauti, and the Kabaneri troops led by Steve Gus.
Thus, the main forces of the World Government had arrived at the Titans World.
On the other hand, the Rumbling continues to advance from all directions, surrounding the dimensional portal.
"We must leave some people here to stop these giants from approaching the dimensional gate!" Garp said, with a serious expression, to Edward Newgate.
"If you want to stay, then you stay. I have to retaliate against this world for what they did to my son, especially against that brat named Eren."
After Edward Newgate finished speaking, he kicked the yellow sand beneath him and flew out with a bang. Ever since he learned the Geppo, he has liked this wild way of moving
"Whitebeard, this bastard." Garp was speechless and his expression turned grim, then he turned his head and gave orders to Bullet and Crocodile behind him. "You two stay here and build a defense line. If you let another giant enter the dimensional gate, you will be beaten by my fist!"
After saying that, Garp flew away like a projectile, leaving the two with a gloomy expression.
"Since when does a Navy admiral have the authority to give orders to a lieutenant general of the Army?" Crocodile sneered dissatisfiedly.
"Do you think that old bastard will reason with us?" Bullet replied, clenching his fists and glaring at Garp's retreating figure. He had tried to challenge him twice and was painfully defeated each time.
Crocodile was speechless and fell silent with a gloomy face.
...
About ten kilometers southwest of the dimensional gate, was the huge military camp of the United World Army.
This camp was built with nearly eighty percent of the Titans World's military strength, along with vast resources and manpower, prepared for all-out war.
[Boom!]
At that moment, a loud explosion occurred near the camp.
After a while, projectiles began to fall from the sky in the area near the camp, causing large flares.
[Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!]
The nine flying warships that were hovering in front of the enemy camp began to land, while firing artillery toward the area near the camp to clear the minefield.
Moments earlier on the front line of defense, several soldiers of the World Government army, including some Kabaneri warriors, had been killed by the mines. Even some giants were injured.
Those sudden explosions beneath their feet were almost impossible to foresee using Kenbunshoku Haki.
Half an hour later, the shelling stopped, the explosions quieted down, and the area outside the camp was in ruins.
But in the next second, screams and exclamations arose throughout the camp.
The Giant Troop began to wreak havoc on the United World Army camp.
[Ratatatat]
A shower of bullets shot out at breakneck speed, forming a dense network of fire that headed toward the otherworldly giants.
Behind them, at their feet and on their shoulders, were humanoid creatures covered in terrifying black armor. Their chests and eyes emitted a dark blue glow.
The entire defense line was unleashed, firing with all their might.
After following the giant troops for some distance, the Kabaneri warriors stopped and raised their hands.
With a hum, a purple-colored energy began to gather in his palms, transforming into a shockwave that shot forward.
[Boom! Boom! Boom!]
The purple energy created columns of light that pierced hundreds of meters into the United World Army's defense line. Soldiers, armored trains, and even machine gun bunkers were instantly annihilated.
Seizing the opportunity, the giants charged with all their might.
More and more giant warriors, under the rain of bullets and artillery fire, entered the defense line, unleashing carnage.
The agonized screams and desperate wails became the symphony of the battlefield.
Likewise, Kabaneri warriors displayed their prowess in hand-to-hand combat.
Their Kenbunshoku Haki and agile movements allowed them to dodge the hail of bullets and even anti-tank gunfire with ease.
The biological black armor on their bodies can effectively defend against the attack of rifles. Even if they were hit by some bullets, at most they would just splash a few sparks.
And once they rushed into the crowd of soldiers, their black bladed arms could start the most brutal slaughter.
...
Starfish World.
In the meeting room of the Armed Forces Headquarters, three Den-Den Mushi display a holographic projection on a conference table.
This is the real-time battle map of the World of Titans.
It can be clearly seen that Douglas Bullet and Crocodile are leading Charlotte Owen, Charlotte Cracker and other military officers with large-scale attack skills to block the Rumbling in front of the Dimensional Gate.
Meanwhile, Shiryu, Charlotte Daifuku, Vista and others have quickly followed the giant troops and Kabaneri troops to participate in the assault on the United World Army camp.
In the air, Borsalino remains transformed into a golden flash, resisting the hail of projectiles heading towards the Dimensional Gate.
Kuzan, on the other hand, is found skating in the vast sea near the peninsula, sealing off the spots where the Wall Titans spawn.
At the same time, taking advantage of this opportunity, army troops continued to pour out of the dimensional gate like a huge black torrent.
Edward Newgate and Garp had already opened a great distance from the giant troops and entered deep into the camp of the World Alliance Army, facing forces of hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
The devastating power of their attacks breaks through fortifications, bunkers and armored trains.
As for the ordinary soldiers, they are swept away like ants before the hurricane, unable to get within a hundred meters of these two.
Behind them, the flames unleashed by Prometheus and the lightning bolts of Zeus ravage the trenches and human lives, accompanied by the unbridled laughter of Charlotte Linlin.
The most tragic thing happens in the rearguard. At that time, it was bombarded and massacred by ten flying warships led by Kaido.
Kong, Tsuru, Zephyr, Raymond and Sengoku are gathered around the conference table, observing the situation.
“The problem now is how to stop this Rumbling. If it really is millions of Wall Titans advancing endlessly, that would be a huge problem.” Tsuru frowned and looked at the virtual sand table and said in a deep voice: "We can't let the dimensional gate be threatened by invasion all the time. We must solve this so-called Rumbling!"
“The Five Elders’ report indicates that this Rumbling could theoretically be infinite. As long as Ymir keeps creating Wall Titans in the Coordinate Space and Eren keeps the Rumbling active, they will continue to arrive without stopping.” Kong also acknowledged the seriousness of the matter.
Even if they killed all the millions of troops of the World Alliance Army, these Wall Titans would still continue to surge over. They couldn't expect Bullet and the others to stay there indefinitely eliminating these Titans.
At this time, Sengoku asked: "Intelligence says that each wielder of each of the Nine Titans can only live thirteen years after inheriting the Titan's power, so how much time does Eren have left now?"
Zephyr understood what he meant, frowned and said: "I think we should find Eren as soon as possible, but the problem is that we don't know where he is or what he looks like. He also has the ability to predict the future. Lastly, there is a language and writing barrier, which makes it difficult to capture someone for questioning."
...
Regarding the problem of stopping the Rumbling, Imu was also deep in thought, as he had a deeper understanding of the Titan World. But precisely because of that, he knew how difficult this task was.
So engrossed was he in this matter that even when the four sisters of the Ubuyashiki family were taken to Noah's Ark, he had no interest in seeing them. He simply ordered Stussy to arrange someone to take charge of their training and education.
“Let me think about it. From Eren’s perspective, he must have known that those armies wouldn’t be able to stop the World Government’s invasion, and that the power of the Nine Titans would be no match for Garp and the others, so the best option was to leave early and hide with all his trusted companions.”
Because as long as he is alive, the Rumbling will not stop.
In other words, even if the World Government defeats the World Allied Army and conquers the Titans World, as long as Eren is alive, he and the other hosts of the Nine Titans will always be a big problem.
“So how to find them?”
This was the main dilemma Imu was thinking about, and also the problem that plagued Sengoku, Tsuru, and the others.
