"So, is that boy Porusalino actually acting tough this time? Is he going to go head-to-head with that bastard Newgate?"

The location was the Marine Fortress Building of the Navy Headquarters. In the Marshal's Office, Lieutenant General Garp was holding a plate of donuts in his right hand. He kept grabbing them with his left hand and stuffing them into his mouth. "It's really rare. I thought that according to his character,

, he will directly leave the Fish-Man Island with his subordinates, thus avoiding this extremely high-risk conflict at the first time..."

Marshal of the Warring States Period frowned:

"Is this the first day you've met him? Karp! That guy Porusalino's tact is not something he will show in everything. When it comes to persisting in things and being stubborn, he's even better than Sakaski.

Be tough... Moreover, the 'Frozen Throne' plan is related to the layout of our navy for at least the next ten years. Now that it has advanced to this extent, how can he give up so simply? Even if he is willing to give up, the five old stars

It will never be allowed!"

"But, Sengoku, our navy has temporarily adjusted its combat plan because of that bastard Newgate. This kind of thing has happened before."

Lieutenant General Garp clapped his fingers in displeasure, "Twice? Three times? Anyway, many times..."

"It's because our navy could only restrain its hands when facing that bastard Whitebeard in the past, so this time the 'Frozen Throne' plan involves the Fish-Man Island, we must not give in anymore!"

The Warring States Marshal felt his head begin to hurt again: "Moreover, even that careless guy from Porusalino can realize this, why are you still so dismissive? Be more serious! Garp!"

"Hahahaha! But no matter how serious I am, it won't work at all, Warring States period,"

Garp laughed loudly, "Is it possible that you and the Five Old Stars can still allow me to support Porusalino? If this is the case, I'm afraid it will be a decisive battle between our navy and the pirates..."

"Although the truth is this,"

The Warring States Marshal took out a donut from the tray in Lieutenant General Garp's hand, chewed it, and said with some confusion: "But as a naval hero, you are always laughing like this... It's really outrageous!"

"I basically don't deal with front-line issues directly anymore anyway. Isn't it nice to laugh and joke on weekdays? Besides, there are many young people in our navy who are extremely serious..."

As soon as Lieutenant General Garp finished speaking——

"Marshal of the Warring States Period, Lieutenant General Garp,"

Sakaski walked in expressionlessly from outside the door, "Haven't Porusalino and Kuzan contacted the headquarters yet?"

A smile immediately appeared on the face of the Warring States Marshal: "You came just in time, Sakaski, I have a task for you!"

"Immediately take my order letter and go to the Warship Management Office to go through the relevant procedures. Tomorrow morning, ten Demon-Slaying Order warships will be mobilized to the Chambord Islands to be on standby, and supervise them to complete the coating and dive into the fishmen within three days.

A series of tasks on the island! Be prepared to rush to the battle to support Kuzan and Porusalino at any time!"

…

The revolutionary army's plan went very smoothly - Long's secret action caused the violent old king to die suddenly the next night after Lucy and others made the plan, and after the initial panic, the princes

, reacted quickly and started a fierce battle for the throne.

Especially the eldest prince Dusco, his competition with the third prince Kelsi is the most fierce, and several military conflicts have even broken out directly.

The eldest prince Dusco has the support of military generals, and he also has many powerful warriors under his command. The third prince Kelsi can't resist Dasco at all relying on his original power. However, with the help of the revolutionary army who hides his identity,

With the help of the 50 shadow zombie cadres who were supported, he fought back and forth with the big prince.

The second prince Burton is a hero of the common people, which means that he cannot get the support of the nobles, but he has some civilian-born officers and businessmen supporting him... Of course, he is also favored by the eldest prince Dusco and the third prince Kyle.

Xi teamed up to suppress them. After all, one of them represented the nobility and the other represented the common people. They were naturally opposed to each other.

The fourth prince Darren left Clifford Kingdom early in order to prevent the battle for the throne from affecting him. As for the fifth prince Benson, he has some ideas about the throne, but he has not made any moves yet. He spends the whole day with some rewards.

Gold hunters hang out together.

On the fifth day after the death of the old king, the princes had completely lost their patience and began a comprehensive and direct battle for the throne. Anyway, the funeral of the old king had been held by this time, and their superficial filial piety was enough.

Whoever can win in a military conflict will have great righteousness.

...

On the second street of the Naco Noble District in the royal city, a large number of soldiers wearing armor gathered here, as well as some knights wearing plate armor and riding tall horses.

There were six people in the lead, including generals in armor and nobles in gorgeous clothes. Surrounded by everyone was a young man wearing a sapphire gold crown. He had a handsome face and was wearing an exquisite silver armor.

There is a Western sword hanging, which also looks majestic.

However, the six of them are not the most conspicuous - beside the six of them, 50 shadow zombie cadres created by Moriah are waiting. These are all tightly wrapped in armor specially made by the revolutionary army.

In fact, the tall shadow zombies, each of which is a powerful killing weapon, make the other knights and soldiers look like stragglers.

"Your Highness, the eldest prince and the second prince's troops are marching towards the palace." A knight rode up and reported to the young man surrounded by the six people.

That person was none other than Kelsey, the third prince of Clifford Kingdom.

"The eldest brother and the second brother really can't wait," Kelsey held on to her helmet and sneered, "During the day, you told me that we would have a fair competition seven days after my father's funeral. Are you really treating me like a fool?"

"Hmph, it doesn't matter. Let them take the king's seal left by my father for a while. Anyway, after today, I will be the king of Clifford Kingdom!"

"Your team, in my name, pretend to go towards the palace! The louder the noise, the better! There are other special teams, follow me now!"

…

Third Prince Kelsi was marching to the destination with his men.

"Your Highness, do we really want to follow the plans of those mysterious people?"

The middle-aged knight who spoke was wearing a pure black metal plate armor with a resolute face. His handsome appearance and the smell of a mature old man could definitely kill all kinds of women. A pair of dark green eyes revealed that

The striking light was like a sharp sword. There was a cross sword hanging on his waist, and a cross gun in his hand. The black horse sitting on it was also wearing a black vest, and there was a triangular knight's coat hanging on it.

shield.

"Great Knight Chad, if I can defeat Brother Wang and the others head-on, I will not carry out this plan,"

Kelsey shook her head, with a look of anger on her excited face, "Even if we add the 50 zombie soldiers they provided us, the brothers are still far stronger than me... If they could put those 50 zombie soldiers together at that time...

Lend me all the remaining zombie troops... Sigh!"

"But Your Highness, if your two royal brothers snatch the king's seal and occupy the palace, any one of them can command the army of the country... At that time, seizing the throne will become a problem for you.

Something that is almost impossible!”

The high knight known as Chad said this - his words were not explicit. If an ordinary leader heard such a straightforward statement from his subordinates, he would definitely lose his temper and severely punish the rude person.

However, Knight Chad is an exception among the Third Prince, because he is not only the great knight of the Clifford Kingdom, with outstanding personal force, but he also controls the most elite knights in the Kingdom - it is no exaggeration to say that the power of the Third Prince

Forty percent of the total was brought by this great knight.

In fact, according to common sense, the great knight of the kingdom should support the most powerful prince in the battle for the throne, rather than the weak third prince in front of him. The reason why Knight Chad chose to support the third prince Kelsey is

In fact, the reason is very simple - he and the third prince have a special relationship.

Just like what is described in third-rate royal novels, Knight Chad and the biological mother of the third prince, a wife of the late old king, grew up in the same village. The two were childhood sweethearts and loved each other.

However, due to the appearance of the old king, the third prince's mother was forced to marry him. Knight Chad, who did not want to be far away from his beloved, had no choice but to join the royal army - as the third prince was born and grew up, Knight Chad also

He climbed higher and higher in the kingdom's army, and finally became the kingdom's grand knight, in charge of the kingdom's most elite knights.

Therefore, in Knight Chad's view, the third prince is not only a legitimate contender for the throne of the kingdom, but also his deceased beloved child - and it is not certain that he is the third prince's real biological father.

After all, the third prince's handsome appearance is a bit like him, and he has always maintained a close communication relationship with the third prince's biological mother. It can almost be said that he and the old king share her day and night equally...

Regarding Knight Chad's words, before the third prince had time to reply, Marquis Mando on the side spoke: "Knight Chad, I'm afraid you don't know yet. According to the latest information, Wilming, the commander of the Royal Palace Guards, has taken refuge with the second prince.

Your Highness Dun."

"How come?!"

Chad was shocked.

As the commander of the Royal Palace Guards, Wilming can almost be said to have managed the palace as his own territory. If even he has taken refuge with the second prince Burton, then it means that the palace has almost fallen into the hands of the second prince Burton——

Although the eldest prince Dusco and the third prince Kelsi also control some of the Forbidden Army, compared to the control of the Forbidden Army Commander Wilming, those people cannot make much trouble at all.

"So, Uncle Chad, it's not that I don't want to go to the palace to compete with the kings for the king's seal, but I don't have any possibility of success..."

Kelsey smiled bitterly.

"..."

Chad choked for breath and was speechless. He didn't know what to say at all. After a while, he finally said, "I understand."

In fact, it was for this reason that the Marquis Mando and the others, who originally did not support the mysterious force plan played by the Revolutionary Army, changed their opinions - because they were already a noble force labeled as the third prince. If the third prince failed in his bid for the throne,

If so, then their fate will be death. Even if they are dead Taoist friends rather than poor Taoists, they can accept the sacrifice of other nobles for their own benefit.

"Don't be too pessimistic, Uncle Chad,"

The third prince comforted him, "Although taking the nobles hostage will make them hate me and even hinder my future governance, this method is indeed effective. And to put it bluntly, everything is related to interests. As long as I give

They have benefited enough, and even if I put a knife to their necks today, they will forget..."

"For the sake of the throne, I even gave up my royal brothers and the palace. What do these nobles mean to me?"

As soon as the third prince finished speaking, various explosions and roars sounded one after another. In the direction of the palace, flames shot into the sky and smoke filled the air.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

Then there was a series of gunshots like fried beans - the battle had reached an extremely fierce level from the beginning, and the cruelty of the battle for the throne was evident.

"Your Highness, the troops of His Royal Highness the First Prince and His Highness the Second Prince have begun a fierce battle, and the gate of the palace has been opened!"

Another knight came on horseback and loudly reported the battle situation to the third prince Kelsi.

"Hahaha! It's begun!"

Third Prince Kelsi looked up to the sky and laughed, sweeping away the previous gloomy atmosphere of the entire team. Then he waved his hand and conveyed the order.

"Pass my order. The attacking troops on the front line should immediately withdraw and follow us to occupy the noble area! The artillery team will push all the artillery up. In twenty minutes, I will bombard the palace! Don't hold back and shoot out all the artillery shells!"

…

The aristocratic district of Nako, the royal city.
