I haven't finished writing it yet, and I haven't been in any good shape these past few days, hey.
…
Looking at Gawain's men who had a path separated in front of them, Whitebeard took a deep breath.
"You have begun to take shape, Gao Wensheng!"
After the words fell, Whitebeard carried his Cong Yunqie and strode past Gawain.
The moment he and Gawain passed each other, he suddenly whispered something while walking.
"My suggestion, you'd better consider it!
Otherwise, by the time you grow up enough to stand in front of me, I'm afraid I will have died of old age with only bones left!"
"In that case, I will put down the flowers, pat your tombstone, and announce to the world that only time can defeat the strongest man of the previous era.
The only man defeated by time is Edward Newgate!"
Gawain said solemnly to Whitebeard.
Faced with Gawain's answer, Whitebeard laughed with emotion.
At this moment, he felt Gawain's respect for him, gula la la!!!
Amid laughter, Whitebeard left with his head held high, and his sons followed behind him.
Those carrying knives, those carrying swords, those holding hammers, and those wearing shoes.
Although those sons have always been lazy, they were extremely solemn at this moment, and they used this to repay Gawain's respect for their father.
In this way, Whitebeard faced the sight of countless people, passed through the coating, and boarded his ship.
There were no words of nostalgia. Even though he had not been to this island called Shampoo Land for a long time, he would not forget his past and present home.
New world!
So in silence, the Mobydick dived into the water, and then disappeared completely.
As soon as the Moby-Dick left, Garp laughed and waved his hand.
"The old guy has to go back to his hometown after all, and it's time for me to go home, haha!
Gone, gone!
Sailors, let’s go back to Marineford, that is our home!”
After the words fell, Garp ignored Gawain and turned around to leave.
Beside Garp, Aokiji and Kizaru showed their own unique smiles to Gawain, then they bowed to Gawain and followed Garp's footsteps.
Looking at the backs of Garp and his group, Gawain sighed leisurely.
"I don't know how many more times we can experience such a scene, but there is no doubt that the next experience may not be so leisurely."
While speaking, Gawain gently raised his right hand.
"Kalifa, focus on purchasing all the materials needed by the Blackbird.
Whitebeard has left and Garp has left, so it’s time for us to embark on the road ahead!”
After the words fell, Gawain gently raised his staff and sword, and struck the ground with his staff and sword.
"gone!"
After the words fell, Gawain picked up his staff and sword, and Shi Shiran turned around and walked towards the little black bird.
After they got on the boat and left the sight of countless spectators.
Bai Xing let out a long breath.
"The atmosphere is so tense. I don't know what's going on. Every time I swim, I feel extremely nervous. I'm afraid I'll do something wrong!"
"Baixing, you can't have this mentality. If you want to become a singer, you must learn to adapt to the audience's gaze!"
Uta patted Bai Xing's tail, and then she twirled her hat with interest.
She was used to wearing her hair in a two-color bun, so the hat made her hair uncomfortable.
While Uta was adjusting his hat, Rayleigh had already lost his appearance.
He lazily sat down against the side of the boat, folding his legs together and putting his hands behind his head to support his head.
"One day passes and one day is lost. This feeling of aging, haha!
Whitebeard said he was waiting for you, we know this, but his suggestion..."
Rayleigh smiled and looked up at Gawain.
"As a suggestion that can make you stronger faster, does he suggest you eat Devil Fruit?"
"That's right."
Gawain held his staff and sword in his right hand, put his left hand in his pocket, and looked at the sky thoughtfully.
"He suggested that I eat a fruit that would help me reach the top faster."
"It's a good idea, although I don't like it very much."
Riley sighed.
"Gawain, if you look into the distance, what can you see the most?"
"ocean."
"Yes, it's the sea!"
Having said this, Rayleigh closed his eyes.
"Although I have always regarded myself as a pirate, no matter when I go to sea or when I meet Roger.
No matter before or after that, we never regarded ourselves as pirates!
In our eyes, haha, we are just a group of simple sailors and explorers who pursue freedom and compete on the waves!
And how can a real sailor become a person rejected by the sea!"
Rayleigh gently raised his right leg. He lay there with his legs crossed and swayed his left leg. Rayleigh smiled.
"In my eyes, anyone who has eaten a Devil Fruit is either a sailor or a pirate, but they are by no means worthy of being a pure sailor.
But you, you were never a sailor to begin with."
"So, Mr. Rayleigh, do you also support me eating devil fruits?"
"In the past, I did not support it because I felt that although your plan was very careful, it would not be carried out for a while.
How could the dream of changing the times be easily realized in just three to five years?
In that case, it won't take too long, five or ten years, and you will always become a strong person.
When you are weak, I will try my best to protect your dreams. When I am really old, it will be you who will protect my expectations for the rest of my life.
Because after ten years of training from scratch, you should be at least five to seventy percent as good as me!
However, it turns out that although your steps are both slow and steady.
But your sight is too far away!
What happened to Whitebeard is that he doesn't want to kill you.
But if he wanted to, he was willing to make up his mind.
You are dead...!"
Lei Li opened his eyes suddenly, then he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"If you don't go to the New World, or if they don't leave the New World, then with your status, the Grand Line and the Four Seas, people who can kill you will not do it, and people who can do it to you will not be able to kill you.
But facing Whitebeard, if he really has the intention to kill you...
Although I can kill him with Little Peach Rabbit to avenge you, but revenge is the most helpless and useless way in the world.
Therefore, three days ago, I changed your training habits in an attempt to improve your strength faster and earlier.
However, although gradual high-intensity exercise is effective, the time for this effect to take effect is at least three to five years.
In that case, it would be a bit slow..."
"indeed!"
On the side, Yixiao nodded slightly.
“Before I put on this unified style uniform, I was just a person who had just boarded the ship and didn’t have much experience.
But now, looking at the neat colors in front of me, I think about the career we want to achieve.
Somehow, I feel the same sense of urgency as Mr. Reilly!"
As he finished speaking, he grinned with an expectant smile.
"Perhaps this is the feeling of finding your true dream, which is not wanting to stay for a moment!"
"Of course I don't want to stay. I am also looking forward to the blood of other islands and other races. How delicious it will be!"
Shiliu put his left hand on Lei Yu, chewed his cigar gently, and accepted the words with a smile.
And Gawain, listening to the crowd's voices, smiled slightly.
"So, it is my strength that worries everyone."
"No, your strength does not make us worry, but makes us feel guilty, sir!"
While Gion spoke, he gently adjusted Gawain's collar.
"oh?"
Gawain turned around to look, and Gion pursed his lips and said with a smile.
"If I and everyone can be stronger, adults will be safer, right?"
"That's not what you said!"
As soon as Gion finished speaking, Rayleigh suddenly got up from the ground. After standing firm, he took off his glasses and wiped them gently.
While wiping, Rayleigh smiled bitterly.
"If there are ten old men standing together, those ten old men can easily kill every general or four emperors in the world.
But with the physical strength of the generals and the monsters like the Four Emperors, they only need to withstand the pressure and danger for a moment before they can forcefully break out of the encirclement of ten old men and kill you, little Gawain!
Of course, that doesn't mean that I can't protect you or stop you. I can still hold you and run away.
If you don't like being held, I can still run away with you on my back, right?
But the point is….”
Rayleigh paused for a moment, put the cleaned glasses back on his face, then looked at Gawain and said jokingly.
"The point is, are you willing to face those guys whose domineering looks and aura are far inferior to yours in such an embarrassing manner?
Just because they are stronger than you now?
Well, maybe you are willing. You are really very sensible. If you can have life and dignity, you can have both. If you can't have both, then you will definitely lose your life, right?
But neither I nor everyone else..."
Rayleigh looked around, his eyes flashing across everyone.
Then, he looked at Gawain seriously.
"You are the most respected person by everyone. We wish we could be several times stronger so that while protecting your ideals and life, we can also protect your dignity and momentum together with ours!"
I saw Rayleigh slowly holding Gawain's shoulders.
"Boy, you are no longer alone!
You say we are your strength, but do you know?
Your thoughts are also the power that supports us!
So, as soon as possible, use the fastest speed to become stronger!
Your plan can be implemented steadily because you have to consider stability and all aspects.
Those things that we simply cannot think about comprehensively, only you can sort them out!
But your strength must be one step ahead of your plan and reach the top of the sea earlier.
Even if it doesn't reach the top, you must at least reach the level of Little Hancock or Jinbe as quickly as possible!
Because you must at least possess their strength before you can withstand one to three moves from the monster.
Only then can our forces truly calm down and fight when facing the other four emperors or other monster groups!"
Rayleigh patted Gawain's shoulder gently.
"This can be regarded as an old saying that I am talking to you on behalf of everyone.
If the flag on our ship could represent the hope of this sea.
Then you are our flag.
We want to raise you to the highest level so much..."
For a moment, Rayleigh's words silenced everyone. When Gawain looked at them, the heat in their eyes made Gawain take a deep breath.
"I see!"
Gawain said solemnly.
It happened that the little black bird had already returned to the black bird, so Gawain patted Rayleigh on the shoulder.
"I will improve as soon as possible, no matter what method is used.
You have high hopes for me, how can I not respond?"
After finishing his words, Gawain boarded the elevator thoughtfully, and everyone followed him back to the deck of the Black Bird.
All the way to the rest area, Gawain sat down and knocked on the table with his wine glass.
"After a while, after Kalifa completes her supplies, we will go all the way to the Capital of Seven Waters, and then pass through the Capital of Seven Waters to Long Circle Island.
From now on, everyone should be prepared for a long voyage!"
As soon as Gawain finished speaking, Lei Li showed a confused look.
"Wait a minute, little Gawain, you haven't responded directly to my expectations yet!
You can't be so appetizing!
Even if you don't plan to eat the fruit, you can just tell me that I haven't eaten the fruit, and I will support you.
And if you plan to use Devil Fruits, you must have a lot of good fruits hidden in Mariejoia, right?
You want it with Wulaoxing and the others!
They are also your elders, so why can't they find you a fruit as powerful as a god, right?
Please give us an answer, we have been waiting for so long!"
Looking at Rayleigh's talkative appearance from the side, Gawain chuckled softly.
Then he shook his head.
"Forget it about the five old stars, I have my own way of getting along with those five seniors.
No matter how powerful the fruit is, it will not be a reason for me to contact them.
The conversation that took place between me and them can only be a conversation that has a major impact on this sea.
And the Devil Fruit and my personal power..."
Gawain knocked on the table gently.
"Anyway, I already have a plan in mind, and there happens to be a very good fruit very close to me.
Follow the current plan, first go to Changhuan Island to establish the first hydrological observation station and preliminary train station on the journey.
That’s very close to my goal!”
After speaking, Gawain smiled and waved to everyone.
"I say this, everyone should feel relieved.
You guys are really different from what I think. I thought you would be more concerned about my thoughts and my way of governing.
But I didn't expect that all you care about from the beginning to the end is my strength.
But no matter what, thank you for your concern, everyone!"
Having said this, Gawain really felt very happy.
Is it because everyone genuinely cares?
That's just part of it, not all of it.
What makes Gawain even happier is the political environment in the pirate world!
If it were the world before time travel, no matter how perfect the team was, they would still argue endlessly over various issues.
But in the world of pirates, no one cares about your political thinking, and no one will argue with you about this or that issue.
