Chapter 286 The Brilliance of Artillery Fire_1
"Fire!"
Lu Qianfu swung his hand forcefully downwards.
"Fire, fire, turn those pirates into ashes. Anyone who dares disrespect the Martial Emperor, kill them all without mercy!"
Fang Lei's killing intent had also reached its limit.
Boom, boom, boom!
Earth-shattering!
Ripping through everything!
The group of pirates in the distance were still carefree, discussing their grand lives.
But in the next second, the endless heat of the cannon fire descended as if it was the Heavenly Tribulation, landing all over the island.
Fifteen thousand Thunderbolt Cannons, millions of God Position Cannons, plus countless other large cannons.
All these shots immediately blossomed on the islands.
In an instant, countless pirates were evaporated. Even those at the God Position level couldn't withstand it, and were instantly blown to nothingness.
The Eastern Domain Islands were vast. Lu Qianfu knew he couldn't possibly cover them all, so he started from the outermost island and advanced inward, sweeping across like a scourge, penetrating deep and aiming for the pirates' core.
The pirates were also stunned.
They saw the cannons virtually destroy the outermost islands in an instant.
"Good, let them experience the power of our Dawu cannon fire!" Fang Lei said, "Chong Yong Wang, what are we going to do next?"
"Next, we will enjoy the brilliance of this cannon fire. We are not in a hurry. We have plenty of Mana stones to slowly deal with them. Just keep bombing and destroy all the pirate nests on these islands."
Lu Qianfu coldly added, "For those who can't stand it and come out to seek death, there are two ways to die. One is by bombing, the other is by killing."
He was not in a hurry to let the soldiers land on the island. There was no need for that now. Wasn't it better to see the pirates being bombarded?
"Good, as long as they dare to fight back, they'll have no chance of surviving!"
Fang Lei also liked this kind of bombardment. Let the enemies taste the terror of their cannon fire.
War is about overpowering others with force. Regardless of how cunning these pirates are, our Dawu army will crush you with a straightforward and overwhelming approach.
On the East Domain Islands, countless pirates had set up many traps. But as the cannons swept through, all the traps were uprooted.
The cannon fire kept going, and the warship slowly advanced.
"Damn, how could their cannon fire be so fierce? Are we now trapped on the island, left to be slaughtered at their mercy?"
The continuous bombardment from the Dawu army aroused angry roars from the pirates.
They too had cannons, but compared to Dawu's, theirs were trash.
The Master of Thunder Whale Island's face turned extremely ugly. Just a moment ago, he was carelessly stating that Dawu was here to deliver equipment to him, but now he was being slapped in the face.
The other side's cannon fire was intended to take his life.
Unlike a regular army that could counter-attack under the command of its leader, these pirates were nothing more than a rabble. They were ferocious when bullying weaker forces, but now facing this army, they were utterly crushed.
"Chong Yong Wang, the core of the East Domain Islands is on Thunder Whale Island. I see a group of powerful pirates gathered there."
Zhu Fengfeng was looking forward.
"Correct, I am aware of that too. Order the Sky Warships carrying Thunderbolt Cannons to fly directly over Thunder Whale Island and destroy the core. His Majesty has given us many trump cards this time, more than enough to kill these pirates many times over."
Lu Qianfu issued the order: "Continue with the normal cannon suppressive fire."
At this moment, 240 Sky Warships directly flew above Thunder Whale Island, lowering their cannon barrels on deck and aimed at the island.
"Bring their warships down!"
Thunder Whale Island also had large cannons. Seeing the Sky Warship arrive, they emerged and instantly targeted the Sky Warships.
But when these cannons fired on the sky warships, they were neutralized by an energy shield. Their cannons were too weak; they didn't know where they were pirated from and could not break through the defense of the sky warships.
"Devastate and obliterate!"
Two hundred and forty sky warships carried five thousand Thunderbolt Cannons, suppressing from above.
The endless cannon fire tore forth, reducing the buildings on Thunder Whale Island to ashes in an instant. Hundreds of thousands of pirates were blasted to bits, leaving nothing behind.
Pour it all out!
Unleash the full power of the cannons!
Thunder Whale Island was completely engulfed in a sea of cannons fire.
The pirates in the east archipelago were all panicking.
"Hahaha, it's exhilarating to blast them! The national prestige of Dawu cannot be challenged by this group of pirates! This is utterly delightful!"
The soldiers of Dawu let out excited shouts.
"Damn it, at this rate, my Thunder Whale Island will be completely leveled!"
Lord of Thunder Whale Island was enraged. He realized that if things continued this way, the pirates would all attempt to escape, and he himself would have to abandon the territory he had painstakingly conquered.
"Island Lords, did you see? Those are warships of Dawu. They don't have any powerful deity fighters. We charge and seize their warships, and then use their warships against them. Without the cannons, they're no match for us!"
He was very smart, using the lure of profit to get these pirate island lords to act.
"Right, these cannons are powerful but they can't stop us. Let's go, seize their warship!"
"Whoever seizes the warship gets it!"
"We can't let their arrogance continue!"
...
There were quite a few powerhouses in the Eastern Archipelago, including eight or nine at the Virtuoso level, and even more in the God Position realm.
They roared and tore through the barrage of cannon fire and charged towards the sky warships.
"Also, those ships over there, it won't take long for those in the God Position realm to kill over and tear up their flanking cannon fire as well!"
In the face of Dawu's intense barrage, Lord Thunder Whale wanted to suppress them with powerful fighters. Other than this, he had no other strategies.
Although they had been heavily pounded by cannon fire earlier, most of those lost were inconsequential underlings. The top-tier forces had not sustained any major losses.
Straight away, some attacked the sky warships while others attacked the Armored Flying Boats.
"This king has been waiting for you."
Lu Qianfu wore a cold smile.
"Apocalyptic Thunderstrike!"
What happened before was just a prelude, the Apocalyptic Thunderstrike was the ace up his sleeve.
Fifteen thousand Apocalyptic Thunderstrikes were simultaneously launched. The horrifying power was enough to obliterate everything, even if it couldn't tear apart the Virtuoso, it could blast those in the God Position realm, striking fiercely at the pirates charging from both sides.
The storm of thunder descended!
The sea turned into the color of lightning!
The dramatically increased power easily tore through the protective mana of the pirates. Just within a blink of an eye, nothing was left in the front, nothing at all.
Exactly, they were vaporized, like using an eraser to ruthlessly scrub on paper until nothing remained.
Those who got grazed by the Apocalyptic Thunderstrike also lost limbs, presenting a sight too gruesome to behold.
Everyone looked dazed, with the partners that charged together suddenly disappearing from their sides. Then some looked at themselves, finding their hands and feet gone, ensuing screams of terror.
"Cover with cannon fire, let's march forth with your King, flatten the Eastern Archipelago, kill them all!"
Lu Qianfu armed himself with his weapon, commanded: "Tell the world through our feats in battle, Dawu is not to be provoked!"
