Over a hundred ships of various sizes from the five main bases and the two large pirate bands were gathered outside Red Rock Base, totaling over ten thousand people.
They stopped three thousand kilometers away from Red Rock Base, cleanly split into seven groups. Yellow Rock Base's fleet was the strongest among those gathered, with two Caracal-class cruisers, six destroyers, and eleven frigates. Yellow Rock was also the largest base on this side of Wild Star Region, with it having over one hundred thousand residents, so it was normal for this base to possess a fleet of this size.
The other bases' fleets were obviously much weaker compared to Yellow Rock Base's. The rest only had a single cruiser as their main firepower, with seven to eight smaller warships following behind. They were at least one level lower be they in terms of maintenance of ships or equipment.
