Gawain took a deep sip of wine.

It was really too difficult for him to refuse Whitebeard's proposal.

Because that proposal was too close to victory.

At least it’s too close to victory on paper!

That was a raid that included almost 80% of the strongest men in the entire One Piece world!

Maybe... we can really win!

But what happens after you win?

Among the founders of the new era, there are teams and elements like the Pirate Alliance.

The most important thing is, are Sakaski and other navies really willing to cooperate with the pirates?

It is true that Sakaski and Porusalino are indeed willing to fight for Gawain.

They are even willing to replace Gawain with Mary Joa to compete for the position of the five old stars.

but…….

If you let them cooperate with pirates...

At least Sakaski couldn’t agree!

Whitebeard's plan is good, but such a plan cannot be decided simply by talking about it.

If Gawain really needs to use the power of pirates to attack Mariejoia in the future, then he must at least spend a lot of time coordinating and doing a good job with Sakaski and other naval forces!

For Sakaski, following Gawain to attack Mary Joa is called Qingjun Side, and that is called Fulong Terrace.

But follow the pirates and fight Marie Joa.

That's a mutiny!

!

In short, after considering many factors, Gawain shook his head heavily and rejected his hesitation just now again.

Seeing Gawain shaking his head repeatedly, Newgate pursed his lips unwillingly.

But in the end, he still let out a long breath.

"I know, hey, it seems that Mary Joa won't collapse as easily as I thought.

But yes, if it was possible to easily capture the place by just gathering a group of strong men, then Marie Joa would not have been able to stand on the sea carried by this hero for eight hundred years.

Even Captain Rocks back then was a terrifying being who gathered more than a dozen monster subordinates.

When he was most offended, he only focused on the Valley of the Gods, a place that was relatively important to the Celestial Dragons, but not very important to the World Government.

This is really...sigh...

I don’t know if I will be able to see Mariejoia’s collapse before I die.”

Having said this, Newgate raised the barrel and drank one with Gawain.

After putting down his bowl of wine, Shanks grinned.

"Speaking of which, Senior Newgate, what you did just now is not like your character.

Why did he suddenly have the sudden idea to attack Mary Joa together with Gawain?

If we were to be evaluated individually on the world stage.

Then we pirates, his Gawain's black bird, Long's revolutionary army, hundreds of alliance countries, and the world government.

The problems between these camps cannot be solved by simply joining forces and destroying Marie Joa!

I have just said that I don’t care what the future of the world looks like, but I need a stable enough time to do my own thing!

Once we join forces to attack Mariejoia, no matter whether we win or lose, the sea is destined to fall into chaos!

So, sorry, Newgate.

No matter whether Gawain accepts your invitation or not, I won't accept it anyway. I don't want to add fuel to your crazy behavior.

Fortunately, Gawain did not join you.

So, haha.

Let's meet in two days.

In two days, let us fight decisively against Marie Joa, and let the sea witness the pirates’ final struggle and your Gawain’s grace!

This drink is enough for now!

I'm leaving, Newgate, do you want to come with me?"

As he spoke, Shanks raised his buttocks and headed towards the distant loop and forgot about it.

Seeing Shanks stand up, Newgate let out a sigh of relief and then stood up as well.

"Yes, I actually forgot about you. You, a guy who has always longed for stability, really can't fight with me like Marigio.

So, the sudden plan is really unreliable, and I was really impulsive this time.

That’s enough wine for today, Gawain, you and I will see you the day after tomorrow.

Don't forget my words. If possible, spare Lingling's life and help my sons who are still alive.

In return, haha, sooner or later you will know what I will give you in return.

As for now.

Goodbye, Gawain!"

After saying that, Newgate stood in the sea breeze and looked at Gawain with a smile.

Seeing Newgate saying goodbye, Gawain nodded immediately, stood up and left.

After a while, Thunder gathered on the pier, and Gawain's figure slowly appeared.

And the moment Gawain appeared.

Sakaski quickly came to Gawain's side.

"Sir, you didn't answer my call just now!

Just two minutes ago, I received a call from Marshal Warring States!

Kuzan may not be able to participate in the war the day after tomorrow. He needs to take people to the new world!

Not long ago, Shanks' navigators and ship's doctors led their monkeys to attack the production and storage base of Explosive Rock!

The amount of explosive rock they stole was enough to blast a small gap in the Red Earth Continent!

Therefore, Marie Joa issued a death order, and our navy must send a team headed by the general, and on the one hand, all the explosive rocks must be recovered.

On the other hand, Kuzan will also have to be stationed at the dynamite rock production base for a period of time!

so……."

"So this god-like move created by Shanks not only gave them a difficult trump card to deal with, but also expelled one of our main combat forces..."

Gawain took over Sakaski's words and continued.

"As expected of Shanks, even in a desperate situation on paper, he can come up with enough solutions to break the situation.

If this happens, we may be in big trouble the day after tomorrow."

While talking, Gawain took a sip of wine.

While considering his drink, he looked at the noon sun.

"Aramaki and Barrett are done fighting, right? Let's eat.

The Black Bird's tradition cannot be abandoned. No matter what, we should hold a banquet to welcome the new crew members.

Come and tell Zhepu that he may have a hard time today.

Also, Barrett, Aramu, come to me!"

"Copy that, new boss!"

"Got it, Captain!"

After hearing Gawain's words, Aramu and Barrett came to the opposite side of Gawain one after another.

Looking at these two guys, Gawain asked funnyly.

"So, who won?

I was chatting too seriously with the white-bearded red-head before, and I really didn’t see the results.”

"Ha, there's no such thing as winning or losing, the new boss!"

Listening to Gao Gao's words, Aramaki responded with a smile.

"This guy is pretty good, at least I didn't get too much advantage.

As for the outcome, neither of us even used our Devil Fruit abilities, so we haven’t even reached the stage of deciding the outcome yet!
