The contribution of Roger the Pirate King should be affirmed, but similarly, his handling of some matters is also open to question.
Knowing that he was terminally ill and dying, knowing that he was being hunted, knowing that the world government had cast a dragnet... but he still married Portcas D. Luju and made her pregnant.
Roger's death was approaching and he had to surrender. He used his death to kick off the era.
But his wife, Portcas D. Luju, and the unborn fetus in her belly suffered.
In order to cut off the bloodline of the Pirate King, the World Government ordered that all newborns born during that period be executed.
Lujiu used various methods and desperately tried to extend Ace's birth date, thus saving Ace's life.
But she also died of exhaustion after giving birth to Ace.
This is a great mother, but Roger is not a qualified father.
Although Roger entrusted Lujiu to Garp before his execution, it was already too late by then.
A thought suddenly flashed through Cao Ya's mind.
Well, Ace is called Grandpa Garp, and Roger is his biological father, so what should Roger be called Garp... Good guy, Garp takes advantage here.
Facing Lei Li's cold gaze, Cao Ya didn't bother to explain. Anyway, he was not afraid of "Pluto" Lei Li. In a real fight, the now old Lei Li would probably not be his opponent.
Cao Ya said calmly:
"If you really understand, you will know why I said this."
After finishing the glass of wine, he paid for the drink, got up and left Xia Qi's rip-off bar.
"I also told you about the situation. You can decide for yourself whether you want to intervene or not."
After watching Cao Ya leave, Xia Qi withdrew her gaze and looked at Lei Li with slight worry.
Rayleigh lowered his eyes and said in a low voice:
"That's Whitebeard's business, I won't interfere."
Xia Qi confirmed again:
"Really? Do you need me to confirm the identity of 'Fire Fist' Ace?"
Rayleigh waved his hand:
"Cao Ya probably won't lie to me about this. Let me just say, why did the navy insist on executing Ace? It turns out that this is what happened."
As he spoke, he sighed quietly.
The Roger Pirates have been disbanded, and many old friends have new lives. How can you bear to summon them again at this time?
"From the day the captain ordered the disbandment of the pirate group, the Roger Pirates... will never come back."
Rayleigh was disappointed:
"Ace is now Whitebeard's crew member. Whitebeard thinks he is his son, and Ace also recognizes Whitebeard as his father... This is a war between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Navy..."
He talked a lot.
It seems to be convincing Xia Qi, and also seems to be convincing herself.
Xia Qi suddenly smiled and said:
"Go if you want. If Whitebeard can handle it, just watch. If he can't handle it, then take action."
Riley looked up to see Xia Qi.
Xia Qi smiled and said:
"Who are you? 'Pluto' Rayleigh, the right hand of the Pirate King, why do you have to care about Whitebeard's opinion? Never mind him."
Reilly also laughed, his laughter was hearty, and he almost burst into tears at the end.
"Yes, I am the vice-captain of the Roger Pirates! When have we ever been afraid?"
****

After leaving Xia Qi's rip-off bar, Cao Ya stayed on the island and walked around.
Going to Xia Qi's rip-off bar was purely an attempt. No matter what Rayleigh's choice was, it had nothing to do with him.
If Rayleigh had just appeared, he might have been able to block Akainu's punch at the critical moment.
But who can say for sure?
"Fire Fist" Ace... has tried to channel unexpected factors. If you still can't survive, then you don't have the life to survive...
Cao Ya sighed in a low voice. He had his own mission and could not go to the battlefield.
That war had nothing to do with the revolutionary army.
Except for Ivankov and his entourage who accidentally wandered in.
"Fire Fist" Ace is a member of the Whitebeard Pirates. This war belongs to Whitebeard and the Navy.
It is undeniable that Rayleigh had his own selfish motives in informing him about Ace's identity.
But after all, there is no subterfuge.
And this really gave Ace a little more hope of survival.
You can achieve multiple things with one stone, why not?
If you are more selfish, Cao Ya doesn't think there is any problem.
After all, he is not a dragon and is not that revolutionary.
A few days later, Sabo and Kerra arrived at the Chambord Islands and brought the latest news from the Revolutionary Army.
"It's decided, once we find out more about Marie Joa, we will openly declare war and launch a full-scale attack on the World Government." Sabo's voice was low, with a somewhat steady temperament.
Kella nodded and said:
"When the time comes, the dragon will come as far as possible, just in case."
Cao Yazhan smiled and said:
"That's no problem."
Kerr rolled his eyes at him:
"Why, Sabo and I are not enough to support you?"
Saab takes a different view:
"Marie Joa is where the headquarters of the World Government is located. The World Government has ruled the world for eight hundred years. We don't know what trump card it has. No matter from any perspective, we should be cautious. Compared with dragons, we are inferior.
It would be nice if the big bear was here too."
Finally, he sighed, causing the atmosphere in the venue to become gloomy.
Cao Yakuan explained:
"Big Bear will return to the team, even if he will be absent for a period of time. Big Bear, he is a staunch revolutionary warrior."
After a few words of relief, he immediately changed the subject:
"The war is about to break out, and we must be prepared."
Sabo and Kella were confused:
"A war on top?"
Cao Ya secretly screamed, "Oh no, the war is the battle between the Whitebeard Pirates and the navy, but it will not be named until the end of the war."
The term "war on top" will have to wait for some time.
He typed haha:
"Whitebeard is the strongest in the world, and the navy also has top combat power. The three generals Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru, Marshal Sengoku, and Hero Garp, etc., are all top figures in the world. The war they participate in together should be called
'Fight the war'."
"Yeah, that makes sense." Sabo and Kella nodded in agreement.
Cao Ya is a comrade and is more senior than them. They will not doubt the revolutionary army cadres.
Cao Ya breathed a sigh of relief and secretly felt ashamed. His awareness was incomparable to that of young people.
They were in no hurry to sneak into Mariejoia, there wasn't enough time yet.
Because the war is about to begin, there is a feeling of turmoil in the Shampoo Islands during this period. The newspaper even said that the two Yonko in the new world, the Red-haired Pirates and the Beast Pirates are facing each other, and there are signs of a war breaking out.
The storm is coming.
The Navy not only summoned naval forces from all over the country to return to support the headquarters, but also summoned the Shichibukai. Those who did not come would be deprived of the title of Shichibukai.
Navy Shichibukai vs Whitebeard Pirates!
After suppressing it for many days, the war finally broke out.
One hundred thousand marines gathered at the headquarters of Marine Fando and stood ready, "Fire Fist" Ace was led to the execution platform.
The three generals were sitting in high positions, and the Shichibukai were lined up.
Just waiting for the Whitebeard Pirates to appear.
***The author has something to say***
I'll see if I can write the fourth chapter. I don't have much time. If I can't write it, I'll update it tomorrow.
