["Is it the navy? They sent people to attack us from the sea?"]
["Impossible! All the warships sent by the navy to monitor the movement near us have been destroyed!"]
[A few days ago, in a certain area of the New World, the pirates on the Beluga stared at the seemingly calm sea with vigilance. A black shadow quickly rose up under the water, and finally broke through the sea with a "boom", bringing
A group of waves jumped up high.]
["Is it a human? Only one person?" Some pirates looked shocked. 】
[Among the gathered captains, Marco raised his head and glanced at the figure jumping out of the sea, and said calmly: "It's him! He actually came here by himself when the atmosphere was tense... Brothers, please
Put away the knife, he probably didn't come to fight with us."]
["Good luck..." The visitor jumped onto the bow of the Moby Dick. His long gray hair was wet, and there were several scars on his aging but still burly body. The seawater flowed down from his hairy legs and his bare feet.
He put on his glasses and smiled slightly, "I was just thinking that you should be approaching in the direction of Fish-Man Island..."]
【"Ming~King~Thunder~Lee~?!"]
[Some of the young pirates on the Beluga couldn't hold their breath and looked at the old man with long white hair standing on the bow of the ship, dumbfounded, "Did he swim here alone?!"]
["Rayleigh, what are you doing here?" Captain Izo of the 16th Squadron asked with a frown. 】
["It's nothing, I just have something to talk to Whitebeard." Rayleigh stood on the bow of the ship and did not move for the moment. Although he had a knife hanging on his waist, he had no intention of reaching out to touch it. He glanced at the front deck calmly.
Everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates said, "Can you put down your weapons first? I have long been a retired old man, and I don't want to fight with anyone..."]
[Captain of the Third Division, Jozi, folded his arms and said solemnly: "Then you are in the wrong place."]
["That's right! Pluto, you are not a popular character here!" Other more senior white group members also said. 】
["Sons, let him come over." Whitebeard's sonorous voice came from far away on the rear deck. ]
[“Dad!” Everyone looked back. 】
[Marco sighed: "Since dad has spoken, there is nothing we can do, young brothers, we should retreat first."]
["Again?" The young pirates thought of something and were suddenly dissatisfied. The last time red-haired Shanks came to their ship, they had already had a similar experience, "These Roger Pirates
No matter what the person is"]
[Bang, bang, Rayleigh threw the two slippers in the clothes under his arm to the floor, stepped on his feet and put them on, wrung out the moisture from the clothes, and walked towards Whitebeard at the back of the deck.
.]
【Bang, bang, bang...】
[Wherever Rayleigh passed, the invisible Overlord's color spread out. Many young members of the Whitebeard Pirates rolled their eyes and fell down with foam at the mouth. ]
["Damn it, didn't he say that... he has retired... doesn't want to... uh..."]
[Several pirates who were barely able to hold on watched angrily as Rayleigh walked all the way to the giant-like white beard sitting on the steps of the stern deck.]
["At such an old age, you have become arrogant." Whitebeard stared at Rayleigh with lowered eyes. ]
[Rayley raised his head and smiled: "My captain is no longer here, and I, the deputy captain, have to support the scene."]
[Whitebeard hugged his muscular arms and snorted, "How dare you say that in front of me!"]
[Reilly said: "Newgate, you look really good! You don't look like an old guy in his seventies at all."]
["Stop pretending..." Whitebeard said lightly, "The boy Lynch who treated my injuries back then was hired by Marco from you. Do you not know the situation? Or..."]
["Do you want to try it yourself?" Whitebeard stood up and held the large naginata of Cong Yunri in his hand. 】
["It's not a bad idea to try it!" Rayleigh said with a smile, drew out the long sword from his waist, and waved his hand towards the large naginata that Whitebeard was slashing at. 】
【Boom!】
[The two weapons struck each other in the air, bursting out black domineering lightning, and the majestic momentum soared into the sky, and the sky was split. 】
[The entire Beluga pirate ship trembled slightly in the confrontation between the two. Many pirates on the ship couldn't help but were speechless. Last time the red hair came, it was like this. This time Pluto came, why was it the same scene again? One Piece
Why are all the guys who got off the boat so...]
["Speaking of which, at this time, I can ask you, a retired old guy, to come over specially..."]
[After a simple greeting with a knife, Whitebeard and Pluto sat together and drank. The other members of the pirate group, including the captains, had been dismissed by Whitebeard, and there was an empty space around the two people who were talking privately. ]
[Whitebeard raised his head and took a sip, and asked lightly, "It's for Ace's kid, right?"]
["Newgate, you really know Ace's life experience." Rayleigh looked at his old face reflected on the surface of the wine in the giant bowl in front of him. ]
[Whitebeard, who was drinking, sneered, as if to say, is Ace’s life experience very remarkable? Do I care about it? 】
[Rayleigh suddenly said: "Two years ago, when I saw in the newspaper that Ace became the captain of the second division on your ship, I was surprised..."]
[After a pause, he raised his head and asked: "Whitebeard, does Ace really hate Roger that much?"]
["..." Whitebeard was drinking by himself. He looked at Rayleigh with a wry smile and shook his head. He raised a huge bowl and drank heavily, "I don't hesitate to call you my father. I have the pattern of Whitebeard tattooed on my back, and I carry your name on my back."
No matter how long it takes to survive...that child really wants to draw a clear line between himself and his father, the Pirate King Roger, is that right?"]
[Putting down the giant bowl, Rayleigh wiped the corners of his mouth and sighed: "...I just want to clarify this issue first, that's all."]
["What if I answer 'yes'?" Whitebeard said, "What are you going to do?"]
["Then..." Rayleigh said after a moment of silence, "I can only respect Ace's decision. Since he has chosen you as his partner, if he doesn't want to have anything to do with Roger, his life and death can only be left to you.
Already.”]
["Gur la la la! Gul la la la..."]
[Whitebeard suddenly raised his head and laughed. Marco and others on the deck in the distance all heard it. They couldn't help but wonder what the hell Dad and Hades were talking about, and they could actually laugh. 】
[The laughter gradually subsided, and Whitebeard said to Rayleigh, who was also a little confused: "Ace...he lost a bet with me and was snatched to be my son."]
["Huh?" Rayleigh was startled, obviously not expecting this answer.]
["At that time, this kid ran all the way to my boat..." Whitebeard raised his head and took two sips of wine, recalling, "It was not to take my head, nor was he trying to make a name for himself by challenging me.
, actually just wanted to find me, his father’s former rival, and ask a simple question, what kind of person is his father?”]
["..." Rayleigh sighed slightly with a complicated expression and drank silently. 】
["I can't do it to a son who scolds his father." Whitebeard shook his head and drank, "But you want me to praise Roger? Spare me!"]
[Rayleigh couldn't help laughing and took two swigs of wine.]
["After all, no matter how much that boy Ace knows about Roger, so what? Roger is dead after all!"]
[Whitebeard looked at the wine gourd in his hand and said lightly, "Chasing the shadow of a dead person with that kind of mood will only increase the sadness..."]
[Rayleigh drinks silently.]
["Rayleigh, how many times have we fought against each other? You should know me... As long as I see the poor kid who actually longs for family care in his heart, I can't bear to let him wander alone again." Whitebeard said slightly.
Sighing, a soft smile burst out from the corners of his wrinkled old eyes, "So... I made a bet with that boy. If he can burn off one of my hairs within three days, he will tell me what I know about Luo
Tell him everything about Jay."]
["Then what?" Reilly asked.]
["Are you looking down on me? For a young guy like him, it's a hundred years too early to hurt me!"]
[Whitebeard pretended to be unhappy and drank the last bit of wine in the wine gourd. In the end, he couldn't help but smile.]
[Three days after the appointment, Ace finally failed in despair. He was willing to admit defeat and agreed to join Whitebeard's command...]
["Gu la la la, your father was on par with me back then!"]
[Hearing what Whitebeard said, Ace was stunned for a moment. He looked up and saw Whitebeard stretching out a generous hand towards him and asked gently: "Ace, be my son."]
…
["All coated! Sinking! Target Fish-Man Island!"]
[The Moby Dick sank into the sea, and standing on the bow looking at the dark seabed, Reilly suddenly asked: "Newgate, did you really take Ace under your wing just because you sympathized with him?"]
["Gula la la..."]
[Whitebeard laughed when he heard this, "Rayleigh, unlike you, I am still a pirate! Since I am a pirate, after being robbed, I will find a way to get it back again..."]
[Rayleigh looks back.]
["That bastard Roger stole one of my brothers," Whitebeard snorted. "Now I'm going to steal one of his sons. Isn't that too much?"]
[Rayleigh laughed dumbly, and then felt a little sad. Neither Oden nor Roger was gone.]
【"It's really not too much."】
[Rayleigh put his hand on the hilt of the knife and looked at the Fish-Man Island, Whitebeard's territory as a transit station, right in front, and said to himself, "Then there is one more person on the ship to save Ace, isn't it too much?"]
【"certainly!"】
[Whitebeard waved his hands nonchalantly, "As long as you don't hold us back..."]
…
"Whitebeard...Pluto...these two guys actually joined forces?!"
Malinfando, at the public execution scene, standing next to Ace on the execution platform, Marine Marshal Sengoku looked solemnly at the figures of the two legendary pirates on the bow of the Moby Dick.
Any appearance of these two people will attract everyone's attention, not to mention that as the opponents of the enemy ship back then, they are still standing together at this moment. For a time, whether it is the 100,000 sailors on the scene or through the broadcast
Ordinary people and pirates from all over the world watching all this on the screen were shocked.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, Whitebeard crossed his arms, shouted low, and punched the air on both sides.
Click! Click!
The air on the left and right sides of the body was directly punched by the white beard, leaving visible cracks and spreading like a spider web.
Where the air cracks are heading, the sea surface on both sides seems to be squeezed by an invisible force, stacked high, and spreads away like wrinkles on the distant sea surface.
what happened?
Many sailors were shocked and nervous, but also a little confused. What did Whitebeard do?
"Why do you have to take care of me!!"
Ace's roar suddenly came from the execution platform. He lowered his head and gritted his teeth, blaming himself, "It was me who ignored your advice and let down the well-intentioned advice of others... It is all my own responsibility that I have fallen to this point.
, why are you coming!"
"Ace! Listen carefully..." Whitebeard held his naginata on the bow of the boat and calmly shouted in the face of Ace's pain, "Anyone who can forgive his children for any mistakes he makes is the so-called father. In the world,
How can any father be able to watch his son die in front of him?"
"..." Not only Ace, but Rayleigh was also deeply touched by Whitebeard's words. Pluto sighed, stood up, and said with emotion: "Don't you know how to say good things for Roger?"
"Don't get me wrong," Whitebeard said lightly, "Did I mention anything about Roger?"
Rayleigh just smiled and slowly pulled out the long knife from his waist, "I haven't been able to move like this for a long time. I wonder if I can still cope with it?"
"Really, this guy has caused too much trouble..." Aokiji, who was sitting on one of the three top chairs under the execution platform, looked straight ahead at the two people at the top of the Beluga in the distance.
Akainu said from the side: "Isn't it too late to say this now?"
"It's so annoying..." Kizaru said listlessly.
"Rayleigh! What are you doing?" Ace, who was kneeling on the execution platform, yelled with red eyes, "I am already a member of the Whitebeard Pirates! I have nothing to do with you in the first place."
"Is it related?"
Rayleigh raised his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Ace, do you know? Roger's favorite knife is one of the twelve supreme sharp knives, and its name...is called 'Ace'."
Among the sailors on the shore, Hawkeye, who was also carrying one of the supreme sharp swords, flashed his eyes.
"..." Garp sighed in confusion.
"Old man..." Ashton was stunned for a moment and looked blankly at the two figures on the bow of the Moby Dick.
"The world calls me 'The Right Hand of the Pirate King'..."
Rayleigh gently turned the long knife in his hand, and the rich domineering energy wrapped around the blade like flowing water.
"Although the 'Pirate King' is gone, the most important 'treasure' he left behind, as his 'right hand', I have to hold on to it for him!"
"What do you think, 'Ace'!!"
Rayleigh raised his eyes, and as he shouted, a fierce domineering force swept out, and at the same time, he suddenly swung the knife forward.
Boom!
The majestic domineering energy spurted out, bursting out with black lightning.
Rayleigh's blade slashed straight towards the execution platform where Ace was sitting. It could almost be said to be an exaggerated flying strike. In the blink of an eye, it flew hundreds of meters away and flashed above the heads of tens of thousands of astonished marines.
Cross over.
"Oops!" Many lieutenant generals in the headquarters looked ugly and drew their swords in a hurry, but it was too late.
"It's so scary..."
Under the execution platform, Kizaru, Akainu and Aoki next to him were about to deal with the astonishing slashes coming towards them. Just when he was about to make a move, he saw that Hawkeye in the crowd below had already pulled out his weapon without knowing it.
The supreme sharp sword behind him, Black Sword Night, had already been slashed out before anyone could react. It was not weaker than Rayleigh's sword at all. The huge slash that flew from bottom to top was almost perfectly matched with the sword.
Rayleigh's slash towards the execution platform was a perfect hedge.
boom!
Two slashes collided in mid-air and exploded. Under everyone's surprised gaze, a burst of light made people's hair stand on end. No matter which one of these two slashes fell on them, they would probably die.
It hurts!
"The right hand of the Pirate King... you are also a powerful swordsman." Hawkeye held the black sword and looked at Rayleigh on the bow of the White Whale in Crescent Moon Bay through the crowd.
Rayleigh smiled lightly and said, "Oh? What an honor. I am praised by the world's greatest swordsman?"
Everyone was in an uproar!
But before the navy had time to be shocked by the confrontation between the two world's top swordsmen, they felt an increasingly obvious vibration coming from the sea far away on both sides of Malinfando...
Two huge tsunamis hundreds of meters high rushed toward Malinfando with a terrifying momentum that would destroy the world!
The apocalyptic scene made some sailors look a little pale.
"Don't be careless, that man is Whitebeard!" Warring States roared on the execution platform, "He has the power to destroy the world!!!"
This world-leading war has truly begun!
(To say that there are not many words means that there are not many words. Isn’t this a way of keeping one’s word...escape)
