On the sea heading to the Grand Route, a small boat flying the Straw Hat Pirates flag was speeding on the sea.
At this time, the atmosphere on the ship for the Straw Hat Pirates was also extremely lively. They were eating the special ingredients brought by Blackbeard and drinking rum generously. Luffy, Zoro, and even Blackbeard who had just boarded the ship
Qidu was laughing, and the entire Straw Hat Pirates seemed to be enjoying themselves.
"Hahahaha, Mr. Sanji, it is indeed a special ingredient prepared by you. It is delicious, it is so delicious!"
Blackbeard and Sauron paired glasses and took another sip of rum. Their free and easy laughter also made the atmosphere of the banquet more lively.
Not to mention anything else for now, Blackbeard Teach was used to observing people's emotions when he was in the Whitebeard Pirates, and his usual demeanor was bold, generous, frank and straightforward. For him, this small scene was naturally a piece of cake.
"Hahahaha, right, uncle! You think so too! Sanji's cooking is the most delicious, and he is the chef I chose!"
Luffy ate meat and drank heavily, and laughed loudly after hearing this. His expression was as if he wanted others to know that Sanji was the best cook in the world.
"Hahahaha, not bad, Captain Lu, you are right, just for this meal, I want to join the Straw Hat Pirates. What if I can't eat in the future?"
Blackbeard also laughed and echoed, with an exaggerated expression that was similar to the captain's, which attracted Luffy's favor.
Sanji himself, however, hit Luffy on the head with a knife, placed the dishes he had cooked in front of everyone, looked at Blackbeard and smiled:
"What the hell, what a simple meal, no respect, Senior Blackbeard."
"No, no, no, Mr. Sanji, please don't be humble. If you are just a mediocre person, then what else does it matter? As far as I know, Mr. Sanji, your craftsmanship is one of the best in the New World, thief.
Hahaha."
Seeing Blackbeard drinking heavily with the same boldness, the expression on Sanji's face became more and more cracked as he seemed to say something "accidentally".
For a chef, there is nothing more satisfying than being recognized by others for the food he has made.
"That's all the stinky cook can do. Come on, senior Blackbeard, let's have another drink."
Zoro habitually "taunted" Sanji, took a sip of wine, and had an extremely generous expression.
For Blackbeard, even Sauron has a very favorable impression. He went to try out those two knives. They are undoubtedly good knives! Give them away if you give them away. They are high-quality products once they are given away. Can Zoro remain indifferent?
If there was anyone present who was most passionate about Blackbeard, it was undoubtedly Zoro, who drank one glass after another with Blackbeard.
Of course, Sanji also raised his eyebrows at Zoro's inexplicable and disparaging words. Before he could explode, Usopp on the side suddenly started yelling again.
"Hey, Luffy! What are you doing?! Blackbeard-senpai, look at him! Damn it, put that piece of meat down! That's mine!!!"
Usopp gritted his teeth and watched as Luffy used the rubber fruit to try his best to swallow the meat on his plate. His eyes turned red, and he rushed forward, wrestling with Luffy.
It's so noisy and unpleasant.
"Hahaha..."
Blackbeard laughed heartily, but did not "meddle in other people's business". Instead, he sat where he was and continued to drink generously with Zoro.
Although he didn't know what to give Usopp, Blackbeard didn't prepare a "gift" to gain favor in advance.
However, since Usopp heard about his father's traces from Blackbeard, and even heard that his father was a legendary pirate and most likely the world's strongest sniper, Usopp's favorable impression of Blackbeard also changed.
Big increase.
Not to mention that he also heard that Blackbeard is stronger than Luffy. In his eyes, Luffy is already a monster. What is the concept of being stronger than Luffy? He can't believe it at all!
Except for this group of people, the last member of the Straw Hat Pirates at this time, Nami...
"Hey hey hey, money, so much money... you can do so many things. Mine is mine."
Until now, Nami has not recovered from the visual impact of Blackbeard's treasure worth hundreds of millions of Baileys.
With a starry-eyed expression, he threatened to directly help Blackbeard "save" it.
Not long after boarding the ship, Blackbeard had gained a lot of favorable impressions based on the different tastes of the Straw Hat Pirates.
Although he has not officially joined the Straw Hat Pirates, with Blackbeard's ability, it is only a matter of course for him to join after he meets Ace and resolves the "misunderstanding".
but……
"Hahaha, Captain Lu, although every member of our Straw Hat Pirates is very good and has great potential, if we want to become the Pirate King, our strength is far from enough."
Although he still looked happy, Blackbeard's voice was calm as he stated this cruel fact.
"Mr. Zoro, Captain Lu, you must have met the world's best swordsman, Hawkeye, right? You probably understand the gap between you and the world's top combat power."
Zoro paused slightly when he heard this, frowned slightly subconsciously, and then fell silent.
gap?
He naturally felt this, and it could even be said that if Hawkeye hadn't been merciful back then, he would have died, and there would be no chance of him standing here.
but……
The more this happens, the more determined Zoro becomes in his obsession to become the number one swordsman.
After taking a sip of wine, Zoro didn't say anything, but the determined expression on his face said everything.
"And Captain Lu, I'm afraid you've also noticed that if it hadn't been for me in Rogge Town, you would have been captured by Smoker, let alone entered the Grand Line."
Luffy slammed the table and shouted:
"So what? I don't care! I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King!"
"Hahahaha, of course. Regarding becoming the Pirate King, I still have high hopes for Captain Lu. If you are not the Pirate King, who else is?"
Seeing Luffy's fighting expression, Blackbeard also laughed.
He had never doubted whether Luffy could become the Pirate King.
Blackbeard was originally an ambitious person who once dreamed of becoming the Pirate King. Although it is now impossible, if Luffy was not the "protagonist" and could not become the Pirate King, he would not have "worked hard" to join the Straw Hat Pirates.
ah.
After all, he is also one of the strongest men in the pirate world, and may even become the strongest in the pirate world in the future. If he didn't see the world on the side of the Straw Hat Pirates, how could he casually join an ordinary pirate group?
.
"But, Captain Lu, although I believe you are destined to become the Pirate King in the future, this journey is not that simple."
"Natural Devil Fruits are relatively rare in places like the East China Sea, but if we go to the Grand Line or even the New World, there are many natural fruit capable people. Your brother Ace is one of them, with the ability to burn the fruit.
”
"Smorg, who left you powerless to resist, is not even considered a strong person in the new world. Hawkeye is considered strong, but besides him, there are other Shichibukai, Yonko Shanks, and Whitebeard.
, Auntie, Kaido, these guys are not to be scoffed at."
"In addition, there are three generals of the Navy, Hero Garp, Marshal Sengoku, Five Old Stars, World Government, Revolutionary Army..."
While Blackbeard was drinking, he explained the reality of the pirate world to Luffy and the others without any scruples.
Maybe it's too early for Luffy and the others, but Blackbeard thinks it doesn't matter.
What kind of guys are the Straw Hat Pirates? How could they give up just because their opponents are too strong?
If it was really only to this extent, then even if he had the protection of the world, how could Blackbeard give up the opportunity to become the Pirate King so easily.
That's why Blackbeard acted indifferently. However, just after Blackbeard gave a rough explanation of the division of power in the world, Luffy's words still made Blackbeard stagger.
Luffy seemed to have directly ignored the horror in Blackbeard's words, and said extremely excitedly:
"Wow! Uncle, do you still know grandpa and Shanks?!!"
"As expected of a legendary pirate!"
When Blackbeard heard this, his expression was also extremely subtle, he couldn't laugh or cry.
Wait, even if you don't care anymore, is this your focus now?
The corner of Blackbeard's mouth twitched slightly, and when Luffy complained that he was worthy of being a legendary pirate, he was also silently complaining that Luffy was worthy of being the legendary Straw Hat Captain...
"...Well, I know you. Your grandfather is a naval hero. We pirates cannot avoid dealing with him. As for the Yonko Red-haired Shanks, hahaha, I had a fight with him back then!"
"!!!"
"With Shanks? Uncle, you are so awesome!!!"
Luffy was also amazed. Although he didn't know the details, in Luffy's opinion, anyone who could fight Shanks must be a very powerful being!
However, in order to become the Pirate King, even Shanks, Luffy will defeat him sooner or later!
"...None of this is important, Captain Luffy. If I guess correctly, you, Zoro and Sanji should all be the main members of the pirate group. So, starting from today, I hope that the three of you,
You can learn three-color Haki with me!"
"Captain Lu, domineering, is also a necessary means to deal with natural fruits. If you want to become the pirate king, these are necessary!"
"Zoro, if you want to become the world's best swordsman, domineering is also essential."
"Sanji...well, if you want to have stronger strength to protect Miss Nami, domineering is the same for you."
The three people immediately looked at each other, and after looking at each other, smiles appeared on their faces at the same time.
“What I wish for!” x3
Blackbeard was not surprised by this. After taking a few sips of wine, he also laughed.
"Captain Lu, come on! If those guys knew that I joined the Straw Hat Pirates, they would be shocked."
…
At this time, regarding Blackbeard's series of operations, the people watching the live chat were also frantically scrolling...
Thor: "666"
Chen Changsheng: "666"
Yakumo Purple: "666"
Chen Changsheng: "Awesome, so awesome. I first boosted my favorability, and then after everyone relaxed their vigilance, I offered to teach the three main players how to learn Haki. After a long time, based on my understanding of Luffy, he will definitely not
I will refuse Blackbeard to join the Straw Hat Pirates! As expected of Blackbeard, it seems that he came prepared."
Chen Changsheng: "@黑beard, but having said that, Blackbeard, is it okay to speak directly about your relationship with Red-haired Shanks?"
In the world of pirates, Blackbeard was @ by Chen Changsheng, his head moved subconsciously, and he quickly entered the chat group.
Blackbeard: "Hahahaha, don't worry, group leader, it's totally fine. I think it's better to tell it directly than to hide it until you find out something happened later!"
Demiurge: "Indeed, I also think that Blackbeard's move is acceptable. Considering the relationship between Red-haired Shanks and Luffy, if there is trouble, and Luffy discovers it later, it will undoubtedly be more trouble than directly speaking.
big."
Blackbeard: "Yes, in addition, I am also going to find an opportunity to tell Luffy that his other brother Sabo is not dead. This will undoubtedly improve the relationship with Luffy."
Yakumo Murasaki: "!!!"
Yakumo Murasaki: "Ah, that's right. We didn't expect Sabo to have such a big killing move. Blackbeard, you really calculated it right."
Blackbeard: "Hahahaha, no matter where you are, this is all the credit of the group leader for uploading "One Piece", and it doesn't matter to me."
Chen Changsheng: "Well, I did upload One Piece, but you came up with the method yourself. It seems that there is no problem joining the Straw Hat Pirates. Congratulations, Blackbeard."
Blackbeard: "That's true, but after all, the current Straw Hat Pirates are still too weak. Although they are on the ship now, apart from teaching them Haki in advance, at least in the early stage, I don't plan to interfere in too many things. After all, they should
You still need some experience, hahaha."
Honoka Takasaka: "...Oh, teaching them Haki in advance is enough to make them progress much faster than the original work. Mr. Blackbeard is really awesome."
Takasaka Honoka's tone revealed envy.
Anyone who has watched One Piece knows how ridiculous it is for Blackbeard Teach to join the Straw Hat Pirates. But now, by knowing the future in advance, he has succeeded unexpectedly.
Honoka Takasaka didn't know how other people felt, but she knew that she admired her very much.
Blackbeard: "Progress is naturally rapid, but there are also many variables. Hahaha, I don't know what the expressions of those in the New World will be like when they find out..."
…
Pirate world.
Rogue Town, Naval Base.
After Smoker woke up from his coma, he immediately asked his subordinates about the movements of the Straw Hat Pirates.
After learning that the Straw Hat Pirates had successfully escaped with the help of Blackbeard, Smoker also looked solemn and directly reported the information that Blackbeard had arrived in Rogge Town and joined the Straw Hat Pirates to the Navy Headquarters.
At the same time, such a huge movement in Rogge Town cannot be hidden from reporters who are ubiquitous in the pirate world.
The news that the legendary pirate Blackbeard Teach joined the Straw Hat Pirates reached countless people directly through reporters.
It spread to Ace, to Whitebeard, to Garp... and even to red-haired Shanks.
In the new world, as long as there is a strong person with a surname, after receiving this news, the entire new world will be shocked!
…
…
ps: I don’t know why, but my heart feels empty. Is this a sign that the protagonist in the legend feels that he will lose something...
