King Arthur, Apprentice of Roger’s Company Chapter 258

“Then…”

“What should we do?”

General Silver Hammer frowned and looked at General Gold Hammer. Among the army, he had the highest status, so he naturally became the backbone of the group.

“What to do?”

“The joint order from the Council and His Majesty has arrived, what else can we do?”

Gold Hammer shook his head helplessly.

According to his own style, he always played it safe, preparing to use a swapping tactic and wait until the allied forces achieved significant results in their surprise attack on Fish-Man Island and Wano Country.

Whether it was to cause panic among the Britons or force them to send troops to support, they would fall into his trap, and then he could launch a full-scale invasion, minimizing losses.

That’s right—

Even now, he was still thinking about minimizing losses. As for victory or defeat?

Heh!

Their Steel Empire was a top-tier powerful nation, and their strongest forces had been mobilized. How could they not take down a mere Britain? Copper Hammer’s death was just because he was useless.

General Gold Hammer was only worried that Britain might explode at the end, wanting to perish together.

That brat named Arthur was not easy to deal with.

If they were to kill him by force, who knew how many losses they would suffer!

He looked worried.

If he knew that Arthur was not in Britain, he would have probably grinned to the sky long ago.

“Pass on my military order!”

“All fleets prepare for full-speed advance towards the British waters!”

“Don’t hold back, use scorched earth tactics directly! At all costs, strive to capture it as quickly as possible!”

“And the allied forces, tell them to cooperate with me, attack with the greatest intensity, and be sure to open a breach at the first opportunity, making it impossible for them to cope!”

General Gold Hammer patted the sea chart, pondered for a moment, and finally made his decision.

The stone in his heart fell, and he should have breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the vast and surging British waters not far away, he felt an inexplicable sense of unease.

Could it be…

Is there a problem?

No!

Impossible!

The Empire’s strongest army could never have a problem.

Even if a Admiral-level combatant appeared.

His Majesty and the Council had already considered this and provided corresponding support.

General Gold Hammer shook his head.

His fists clenched under the table, repeatedly convincing himself, but there was always an lingering shadow in his heart.

Especially looking out at the distant British waters.

The vast and mysterious sea, like a monstrous beast with bared fangs, a deep abyss waiting to devour people.

The sea area, with its combat power dispersed and seemingly empty internally.

Yet, it was precisely at its most terrifying and unreachable.

“Hey~!”

“Sister Morgan, the battle over there should be starting soon!”

Arthur’s emerald eyes looked at the distant sky. Although the young man didn’t turn his head, his clear voice echoed back.

“Battle?”

Morgan raised an eyebrow in surprise.

A hazy glow flashed in her beautiful eyes, with traces of surging magic on it.

“The Steel Empire’s battleships have indeed invaded the entire territory.”

“Fish-Man Island, under the protection of Galahad, is completely at an advantage with the resistance of the 100, 000 Fish-Man Knights…”

“Wano Country is guarded by Gareth, and the samurai and knights are barely usable, so there won’t be any problems in the short term…”

“Britain, on the other hand, is engaged in a back-and-forth battle with Gold Hammer and Silver Hammer under the joint efforts of Gawain and Agravain. The battle is quite fierce, and those guys seem to be hiding some trump cards they’re about to reveal.”

“But with Filer around, any schemes or tricks are just insignificant chickens and dogs~”

Morgan floated leisurely in mid-air.

Her fingers, like lamb-white jade, lightly touched her crimson lips. Even such an ordinary gesture still stirred people’s hearts, truly living up to her name as a fairy.

However.

Arthur obviously wouldn’t fall for it. All he saw was a full display of playful teasing.

Hmm—

His Sister Morgan must be itching to tease someone again.

But! (For exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

She was right about one thing.

With his Royal Sister around.

All schemes and tricks were just insignificant chickens and dogs!

He still remembered the friendly sparring session that his Royal Sister had forced him into before he left the island, which was actually a brutal beating to get revenge for him going out without her.

A meteor falling to the ground—

In his emerald eyes, time seemed to stretch. Before he could finish his lament, a mischievous voice rang in his ear again: “That’s not right~”

Morgan frowned slightly.

“Shouldn’t Katerina have disabled the Den Den Mushi’s wavelength?”

“Communication can’t get through at all, and Little Arthur, you’ve been with me the whole time, so how do you know about Britain’s intelligence?”

“Your abilities don’t include telepathy or remote observation, do they?!”

Morgan looked over with a probing gaze.

In the hazy glow, a mysterious glint flashed: “Could it be—”

“Could all of this have been within your expectations?”

“Stirring the grass to startle the snake, making them rush due to time constraints, so they can only launch a full-scale invasion… deploying all their forces at once, precisely falling into your calculations?!”

The words blurted out.

Morgan looked at Arthur with sparkling eyes.

“~It really is!!”

The more she spoke, the more convinced she became, and finally, Morgan’s face was filled with certainty.

“Hehehe.”

Arthur scratched his head with a simple smile, not explaining.

All of this…

It was indeed all part of his plan!

Or rather!

It was a part of his annihilation plan!

Want to provoke Britain?

The last one who offended Fish-Man Island, John, had already been pulverized into dust, not even a speck remaining!

How could Arthur, with his style, easily let go of the Steel Empire, which had invaded Britain several times?

If his strength was insufficient, he would just endure it for a while. If he had enough strength and didn’t retaliate, then they would truly think of him, King Arthur, as someone made of mud!

With a sharp blade in hand, the desire to kill arises.

Arthur, holding dozens of Devil Fruits, clearly had this mentality.

The Steel Empire’s full-scale invasion just happened to hit the tip of his spear. If he didn’t let them know what the majesty of a king was, wouldn’t he have obtained these Devil Fruits for nothing?

It’s not just about fighting! (Li De’s) It’s about—annihilation!

Arthur’s plan was aimed at annihilation.

He would lead a single force straight to the crystal.

His Royal Sister would stay behind to guard the home base and ensure everything was safe!

If he didn’t let the Steel Empire’s massive army attack all at once, how could he completely annihilate them? If the intensity of the war was too low, and they fought with piecemeal tactics, would they notice something was wrong and retreat?

The principle of “a snake not killed will harm you” is clearly written in textbooks!

He didn’t want to search the whole world for the remnants of the Steel Empire.

And then be dragged down by these annoying small fry, hindering the development of Britain’s power.

“Hmph—”

“After several provocations, it’s time to settle the score, you scoundrels!”

“If not for your blood baptism, how can I forge the might of my great Britain!!”

Arthur’s eyes narrowed slightly.

A chilling killing intent flashed in his emerald eyes.

At that moment, the majesty.

Even Morgan, who was close by, couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart.
