There are many various islands in the New World, including those with extremely beautiful scenery such as Dressrosa, and those with harsh environments such as Wano Country.

Each of these islands has its own characteristics, including the characteristics of the New World.

The Cambening Islands are one of the very special islands. They are said to be an archipelago, but they are actually composed of a main island plus an extended island chain and various surrounding reefs and reefs.

Due to the special topography, there are rich fishery resources around this island. Although the land on the island is relatively barren, it can still provide something for the few residents living here to survive.

But now, the situation here has changed.

The few residents on the island have long been moved away. Various positions have been set up on the island, and the entire island is covered with weapons and ammunition trenches.

The outer reefs and reefs as well as the surrounding not-so-good environment formed the first line of defense. This was Allen's lesson learned from previous wars, and he was worried that Whitebeard and their ships would arrive directly from the bottom of the sea.

Of course, this is just a small precaution. The most important thing is that the geographical location of this place is suitable. The island is large enough, and there are not many other things on the island except rocks. There are also very few residents living here. In total,

With just over a thousand people, it's easy to move around.

This place is very suitable for use as a battlefield. Even if it is damaged or sunk, you don't have to feel bad.

It won't work if it's placed in the Navy's fortress in the New World.

Not only is each fortress built by the navy with a huge amount of energy, time and money, but if it is destroyed, a huge amount of manpower and material resources will be invested in rebuilding it. Although these costs will be distributed by the world government, in the end they will still be

If borne by countless civilians, perhaps this money can destroy countless families.

Not to mention, once Whitebeard goes crazy and sinks the entire fortress, no one knows how many soldiers will be buried with him. If it were on this island now, ordinary soldiers would have a chance to survive.

This is all what Allen has considered.

If we want to say who in this world respects human life the most, it is undoubtedly him - this human life refers to ordinary people as well as ordinary soldiers.

On the island, various defense measures are still being constructed, and the soldiers are working very hard.

The place where people used to live is now empty. In the middle position, a high platform similar to the one used to execute Roger was built. Whitebeard's two sons knelt on the high platform like this.

Their injuries have been stabilized after simple treatment. Although they are still unable to move their hands, they are temporarily out of danger.

He just felt a little bad mentally, his face was pale, his hair had become greasy because he hadn't washed it for several days, and his eyes were full of numbness and self-blame.

Under the platform, there are soldiers who are constantly busy.

From time to time, some people would pay attention to the two of them, but they no longer paid much attention to them.

"Do you think Whitebeard will really come?" A young soldier asked his older companion while he was busy.

"Of course, haven't you seen that we have mobilized tens of thousands of manpower in the new world? There are nearly a hundred warships alone. You don't think this is a joke, do you?" The soldier next to him obviously saw this.

More broadly, "See, Major General Sakaski and his men will be the first line of defense. In that area over there, the people from the G-1 base are responsible for the defense, and over there, the G

-The defense zone of base 3, over there is the G-5 area.

Hey, if it weren't for the fight against Whitebeard, how could there be such a big battle. Are you nervous?" He finally asked the companion who just spoke.

The soldier in front looked a little embarrassed: "Don't tell me you're not nervous, that's Whitebeard, recognized as the strongest man in the world since Roger's death."

"Yeah, that's Whitebeard. Of course I'm nervous, but more importantly, I'm looking forward to it. I believe in Lieutenant General Allen, and I also believe in General Warring States. Since Lieutenant General Allen can capture Roger and the Golden Lion, now we can deal with it.

I think Whitebeard is very confident. The Warring States General is Whitebeard’s old opponent. In addition, there are so many powerful combat forces participating in this battle. We have a good location and a great advantage in this battle. These pirates are in

The New World is rampant, and I don’t know how many people have been killed because of their families. The reason why things have evolved to this point is because the Bisaru Pirates plundered a town."

"It's a pity that he died so easily. It really gave him an advantage." The former said harshly. "They should really be imprisoned and pushed into the city to make their lives worse than death."

"They are all dead. There is no point in saying this now. It is better to wait until the war breaks out to find a way to kill a few more pirates. Lieutenant General Allen said that the merit reward this time will be doubled compared to before. This is for those of us

Opportunity."

"I must kill a few more people, but I don't know if I can be promoted to second lieutenant." The young soldier tightened the spear on his back. His shooting talent was pretty good. If he could kill a few sailors from the Whitebeard Pirates,

Thief, ensign is definitely not a problem.

The older soldier said: "Lieutenant General Allen has given you the opportunity, it depends on whether you can grasp it. You know, in the Navy, only Lieutenant General Allen always considers us low-level soldiers. Didn't you ask why before?

Will this battle be held on such an island?"

"Yes, I'm thinking that if we use our fortress in the new world as the battlefield, wouldn't we be able to exert more powerful firepower, and it would be easier to fight in that way."

"That's because you only know one thing but not the other." The older soldier put down a box of ammunition, took out a cigarette, sniffed it under his nose and clamped it to his ear, "How else would you say Ai

Vice Admiral Lun has such a high prestige in the navy, especially among us at the bottom of the navy. I heard that a special meeting was held before, and it was Vice Admiral Allen who took the initiative to place the battlefield here.

In addition to the vast terrain suitable for large-scale battlefields, it is also because once high-level combat forces join the battlefield, ordinary soldiers like us will become dangerous. If you think about it, in a small place like the fortress, there are so many

People have no place to hide even if they want to. Especially with Whitebeard's fruit ability, if you think about it, once an earthquake occurs in the fortress, the originally strong fortress will instantly become our tomb."

"Hiss~" The young soldier thought about the scene for a moment, couldn't help but gasped, and said with admiration, "Lieutenant General Allen thought deeply."

"Actually, there's more to it than that, but I don't really understand the other deeper aspects. We just need to know that in a place like this, we can make better use of our numerical advantage and have a greater chance of survival."

The soldier's eyes flashed with a complicated and vicissitudes of look, "Anyway, this is what I am doing in my life. I just want to kill more pirates, so that even if I die, I will be worthy of my dead wife and children."

"I don't agree with what you say." A voice suddenly came in from the side, "It's right to kill more pirates, but you can't think about death. Just like what the sergeant said before, you have to think about more pirates.

Earn military honors and rewards, and when the time comes, find a wife and have a few children to start your life again. This is the correct attitude."

"Ai...Lieutenant General Allen!" When the two soldiers saw the person coming, their faces turned red and they subconsciously raised their hands to salute.

They didn't expect that Allen would hear their chat, especially the young soldier, who was so excited that he trembled.

Before that, they had seen Allen from a distance, but they had never had a chance to talk to each other. They had always heard that Lieutenant General Allen was very kind to the grassroots soldiers. Now that they had actually seen him, they realized that Lieutenant General Allen was really kind.

A gentle man.

No wonder there is almost no one who doesn't admire him just by talking about him among the navy soldiers.

Allen raised his hand in return and patted the two of them on the shoulders with a smile: "Actually, I should say sorry to you for rashly involving you in such a large-scale war, but this is our bounden duty.

Who made us the navy? Since we have become the navy, we should do our best to fight against pirates and protect the safety of the people, no matter who the other party is or what their identity is, because this is our responsibility."

"You... Lieutenant General, you don't have to apologize to us, this is what we should do." After hearing Allen's words, the two of them were a little incoherent.

After all, Allen's identity is here, and this world has very distinct levels. This is enough to make the two of them feel flattered and even a little scared.

"Don't be nervous, but remember my words. When fighting, you must fight hard to kill the enemy, but you must also protect yourself as much as possible. After this war, I hope to see you all well. This is our victory.

, especially if you can get married and have children, that would be the best. Dealing with pirates is our bounden duty, and the pursuit of happiness is also human instinct, so there is no conflict."

"Yes, Lieutenant General." The two saluted in panic.

Allen encouraged again: "Do a good job, come on." After saying that, he turned and left.

The two people behind them looked at each other, as if they were in a dream. They couldn't believe that they could be encouraged by Lieutenant General Allen personally. This kind of treatment had already made the surrounding soldiers look at the two of them with envy.

Almost going crazy.

"I have decided that Lieutenant General Allen will be my lifelong belief from now on!" The young soldier looked at Allen's leaving figure and silently swore in his heart, "I will never let you down, Lieutenant General."

In fact, such a scene did not simply happen in such a place. As Allen returned from inspecting the surrounding battlefields, no one knew how many people looked at him and their eyes changed from respect to fanaticism, and their morale

It has also improved a lot.

The improvement in morale is really visible to the naked eye, and many soldiers feel like they have been given a shot of blood.

…

…

"Alan, you are back. How is the construction of various facilities?" Sengoku sat in an originally spacious but simple room, which has been transformed into a temporary war command place. Not only Sengoku, Lieutenant General He and the Navy

The senior generals and the staff led by Lieutenant General He are all in this room.

Allen shook his head: "Time is still a bit tight. Compared with the firepower system of the fortress we have spent great efforts to build, it is still far behind."

He turned his attention from the sand table on the large table to Allen and said: "Alan, no matter how fully prepared the war is, it will never be perfect. We just try to expand our advantages and reduce the enemy's advantages.

, you have done a good enough job in this regard, there is no need to be harsh and demanding."

Now Lieutenant General Tsuru looks at Allen not only as a senior naval officer looks at an outstanding junior, but also because of Gion's relationship, he is more like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and she is satisfied no matter how she looks at him.

She didn't want to put all the pressure on this outstanding young man. After all, these old guys were not useless yet, and they could still do more for these backs who were not fully grown but were good enough.

"He is right, Allen, we all know that you love the soldiers, and you have done a good enough job. Not only us, but all the soldiers have seen what you have done in the past few days, and with your ability

With help, the defense intensity has been improved a lot." Sengoku has no grudges against Allen, even if the two were somewhat unhappy, "Everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates has completed their assembly. According to normal circumstances, if nothing unexpected happens, at least they will arrive here.

It will take another three days. We will be better prepared than they are, and they should be worried, not us."

Allen nodded.

Of course he understands these principles, but he is very different from Seng Guo. Seng Guo is a qualified general and will also be a qualified marshal in the future. The so-called kindness does not control the army. This is what Seng Guo did very well, and he made a clear distinction between public and private matters. Allen

He still couldn't do this. He just wanted to reduce the casualties on his side as much as possible. After all, these soldiers were directly summoned by his plan.

He just wants to do his best to make his side bigger, that's all.

"Did the Whitebeard Pirates avoid our eyes and ears?" He asked a new question.

He replied: "No, we put up such a posture so blatantly, and with Whitebeard's character, we will definitely respond with the strongest attitude."

Not to mention Whitebeard, who is now in his prime, even Whitebeard, who has since become old and seriously ill, is still domineering and invincible, and he has the toughest posture when facing the navy.

Not everyone dares to attack the Navy Headquarters!

"Is there anything unusual happening at BigMom and Kaido?"
