"Purupuru!"
While Rosse and Zannie were chatting idly, the Den Den Mushi on the table rang.
This was the Den Den Mushi Rosse used to communicate with CP, previously handled by Gion, and just returned to Zannie yesterday.
"Answer it first."
Rosse casually gave a look, and only then did Zannie walk to the Den Den Mushi and pick it up.
"This is CP0 Zannie, responsible for Saint Rosse!"
["Lady Zannie, the woman Saint Rosse is looking for has been found on Baterilla Island. She is currently still pregnant. Do we need to capture and bring her back to the Holy Land?"], A respectful voice ca from the Den Den Mushi.
"Found her? And she's not dead?", A trace of joy appeared on Rosse's face, and he directly walked to the Den Den Mushi, "This is Saint Rosse. I will imdiately head to the island where you are. From now on, gather the best doctors nearby to ensure that woman's body does not have any issues. Also, prohibit revealing any information related to the World Governnt and ."
["Understood!"]
Upon hearing Rosse's voice, the image simulated by the Den Den Mushi visibly showed panic, but quickly shifted to respectful.
"Good."
After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Rosse turned to the door, "Stella, notify Sakazuki to have the battleship move at full speed. Even if it ans pushing the ship from behind, we must reach the Holy Land as soon as possible."
"Yes!", Upon hearing Rosse's command, Stella hurriedly rushed out of the cabin.
Rosse was never in such a hurry before. The fact that he was this urgent ant it was definitely a big matter and couldn't be delayed.
"Saint Rosse, from the Holy Land to Baterilla Island, a normal battleship journey takes 3 days," Zannie took the opportunity while Rosse was speaking to take out a sea chart and spread it on the table.
The World Governnt possessed the most complete sea charts, and as a Celestial Dragon, Rosse naturally had access to the most comprehensive version.
The distances on the sea chart were all asured in real conditions, with very small margins of error.
Baterilla Island was located in the South Sea. From their current location in the West Sea, the fastest route was to cross the Red Line and pass through the artificial route at the Holy Land.
"Three days… a bit too long," Rosse shook his head. He was now racing against ti.
He originally thought that even if they found that woman, it would only be a corpse. He didn't expect her to still be alive.
But unexpectedly, perhaps because of him sending people to search again in the South Sea, that woman had stubbornly held on for 22 months.
That woman could give out at any ti. With his current ans, in order not to expose himself to the World Governnt, he could only rely on Stella's Devil Fruit ability to save her.
This was truly a race against ti. If delayed even one day, that woman could die, perhaps even two lives at once.
But if he could save both mother and child, he could definitely gain a future S-class powerhouse's absolute loyalty.
To reach Shichibukai level at age 20 despite being left to grow on his own, considering his bloodline, that was practically wasted potential.
If raised by him and equipped early with a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit, in twenty years, he would be capable of tearing off Blackbeard's head.
This ti, Rosse wanted to try doing the things Whitebeard loved to do.
"Notify the Holy Land to prepare 20 strong slaves who can swim. They must have no Devil Fruit abilities. At the sa ti, mobilize all World Governnt Devil Fruit users with flying abilities," Rosse said lightly.
"Yes!"
Zannie knew very well what Rosse was planning to do and imdiately started contacting the Holy Land.
BOOM!
Suddenly, the ship shook violently.
Imdiately after, a huge thrust ca from behind the ship, and the entire battleship began to tilt slightly.
From the outside, one could see the sails of the battleship had been retracted, and it was speeding forward at an unbelievable pace. Because it was moving so fast, the entire ship was practically gliding above the sea, with only the stern still touching the water.
And at the stern, Zephyr's upper body was bare, both hands lifting the battleship while his legs kicked the sea with afterimage speed.
With each kick, the battleship accelerated a little more.
The speed of the battleship caused Robin to be thrown off the ship.
Fortunately, Rosse was right next to her and grabbed her collar. Otherwise, she would have slamd into the cabin door.
"What happened?", Feeling the world spinning, Robin was still a little dazed.
"The battleship has accelerated. We'll arrive at the Holy Land at the fastest possible speed," Rosse spoke as he carried Robin out of the cabin.
Even though the ship was tilted almost 45 degrees, for him, it was as if walking on flat ground, this was the benefit of strength.
"Huh?", Looking at the slanted ship, Robin's eyes showed confusion.
She couldn't imagine what kind of thod could make a battleship move this fast.
Especially after stepping out of the cabin and seeing the massive wave left behind due to the large motion at the stern, Robin couldn't help but open her mouth wide.
"Saint Rosse, is that a person?", Robin's hand trembled as she pointed at Zephyr, unable to believe that they were actually being pushed by a person.
"Zephyr used to be a Marine Admiral. He was stronger than Sakazuki," Rosse explained lightly, walking step by step toward the stern.
What he said wasn't false. Zephyr mastered both physical techniques and Armant Haki, which were quite effective against Logia users.
Under the sa conditions, Sakazuki was indeed slightly inferior to Zephyr.
But Sakazuki was still on the rise, while Zephyr had already peaked. Their gap would gradually show over ti.
"Zephyr, thank you for your hard work. Ti is tight, I need to save a great woman," Rosse walked to the stern and took the initiative to explain to Zephyr.
He actually didn't have to explain, but Zephyr had pushed the ship without hesitation, so he felt it was necessary to say sothing.
"If it's to save soone, then this old man has no complaints," Zephyr still had ti to respond to Rosse even while pushing the ship with full force.
Pushing the ship was pure brute work, and for Zephyr, the energy cost wasn't high.
As long as he controlled his strength properly, he could push for three days and nights.
"At the current speed, we'll still need three days to reach the Holy Land. Zephyr, assess your own stamina. Once we reach the Holy Land, others will take over. You can rest," Rosse thought for a mont and said.
An Admiral-level's stamina wasn't on the sa level as other ranks. At his own current stamina, pushing at this speed would burn him out in an hour.
But for Zephyr, it was hard to judge.
Maybe this pace was like child's play for him.
"Got it!", After hearing this, Zephyr increased his leg speed again. Rosse could clearly feel that their speed rose by at least 30%.
They were now moving at over four tis their initial speed.
At this pace, they could reach the Holy Land in less than a day.
Then switch ships at the Holy Land and continue moving. They'd probably arrive at Baterilla Island within two days.
This speed was already the current limit.
'Let's hope… this speed will be enough to save her.'
