The second half of the Great Voyage, the New World.

The Whitebeard Pirates, aboard the Moby Dick.

Ace sat in front of Whitebeard, holding the phone bug he had just finished talking to Kuzan.

"You kid, you've been running around for the past two years, and you've attracted so many so-called 'allies', are you finally ready to do it now?" Whitebeard looked at Ace and asked lightly.

"yes!" Ace nodded, then put down the phone bug in his hand and said: "The new generation of forces that can promote the process of the times have completed their accumulation, and next, it is the time for them to show their talents!" ”

"Kulalalala, those imps do have a lot of potential, but they're still too tender." Whitebeard laughed, then shook his head.

Of course, Whitebeard knew that the 'new generation power' in Ace's mouth was referring to those people, a year ago, when those little ghosts came to challenge him as a target, Whitebeard even went out to meet them in person, although he was still very immature, but even Whitebeard had to admit that it was a group of young people with great ambition and potential.

It's just that compared to the first, the strength of those imps is still far behind.

"Hehe, those guys have been practicing hard during this time in order to wash away the shame they have received in the past two years, don't underestimate them, maybe the next time we meet, even you will be startled!" Ace said with a smile.

"Hey, it's just a bunch of stinking little ghosts." Whitebeard pursed his lips disdainfully, and then asked, "It's you, you haven't taken the initiative for two years, what are you waiting for?" ”

"Of course, I'm waiting for the right time to push the tide of the times!" Ace grinned and smiled confidently: "Moreover, I'm very strong now, although it's a bit arrogant to say this, but now maybe even you are no longer my opponent, uncle!" ”

"Kulalalala!" Hearing this, Whitebeard laughed out loud and said, "Stinky little ghost, if you want to be the opponent of the old man, you are still a million years early." Although he said this, Whitebeard's face was full of happy smiles.

Whitebeard already had the answer in his heart to whether Ace was already stronger than himself, and in his opinion, Ace's future opponent was no longer their old guys.

Ace's real opponent is the World Government, and the mysterious 'Im' hidden behind the World Government.

Whitebeard is already old, and even with Luo's care, he can clearly feel that his body is weakening day by day.

At such a time, is there anything more joyful to be able to see one's chosen heir surpass oneself and live in the world?

Of course, Whitebeard knew Ace's purpose, and he was very supportive.

To be honest, he, like Ace, doesn't like this so-called 'era of pirates' very much, but he doesn't have the ability to change it himself, so he can only make the people around him as stable as possible.

For Whitebeard, who had a tragic childhood, it would be a good thing for the world if Ace could really end the era of pirates.

However, Whitebeard knows very well that although this era is called the 'Age of Sea Pirates', the problem is not in the pirates, but in the group of Draconians who live at the top of the world.

If you really want to end this era, it is not enough to just become the so-called 'One Piece', if you want to end this era, you must overthrow the pattern that has lasted for 800 years in this world and drag those so-called Draco people from the peak of power in this world.

In the past two years, Ace has been working hard for this goal, and these whitebeards are in his eyes.

However, Whitebeard also has his own plans in his heart, and a man like him, even at the end of his life, will not lie in bed and wait for death with peace of mind.

"It's nice to wait until you start planning at this time." Whitebeard looked at Ace and said secretly in his heart: "At least, at the end of my life, let me also exert the last bit of residual heat for you." ”

……

The first half of the Great Voyage, the Devil's Triangle.

This sea area is the territory of Moonlight Moria, one of the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty.

On this day, Moria's terrifying three-masted galleon welcomed a group of uninvited guests.

Although it was two years late, when the Straw Hats entered the waters of the 'Devil's Triangle', they still met their destined eighth companion, the skeleton that had been dead for decades, Brooke.

After meeting Brooke, the Straw Hats learn a little about the 'Terror Three-Mag) from him, and then set foot on this huge terrifying sailing ship full of strange horrors with a heart of adventure.

Scary zombies, wandering ghosts, and pirates who have been robbed of their shadows and hid in the shadowy forest.

Everything on this huge terrifying sailing ship is stimulating the hearts of every member of the Straw Hats, some are excited, some are afraid, and some are ready to move.

Although after two years of training, the strength of everyone in the Straw Hats is much stronger than when they boarded the terrifying three-masted sailing ship in the original story.

But in the face of the strangeness that they had never seen on this ship, they still hit one after another, first being pierced by those disembodied ghosts, making the ugliness of several main forces with strong strength fully revealed.

Then there's the eerie Mansion of Terror and the genius doctor that Chopper yearns for, as well as the unseen muffled beast roar and the corpse swordsman with the famous sword.

It's full of weirdness, and the members of the Straw Hats are playing in the shadows.

In the end, Wang Luffy was also negligent without knowing Moria's ability, and then took away the shadow.

However, when the Straw Hats, who had suffered so much, reacted and finally confronted Moria and his men with a serious attitude, the situation began to turn one-sided.

Facing the Straw Hats who have been practicing for two years, the cadres under Moria's command seem so vulnerable.

As Moonlight Moria, who is the Seven Martial Seas, in front of Wang Luffy, who has been practicing for two years, he was only one-sidedly abused.

Even if Moria finally gathers the power of all the shadows of the terrifying three-masted sailboat, he can't escape the fate of being knocked out by Wang Luffy, who has opened the fourth gear.

In this way, Moonlight Moria, one of the king's seven martial seas, became the first stepping stone on the road to attack after the Straw Hats came back.

After the Battle of the Terror Three-Mag, not only did the bounty of all members of the Straw Hats increase slightly, but after learning the story of Brooke and Rab at the final celebration banquet, this colored skeleton also became the eighth member of the Straw Hats with the approval of all members.

After the adventure of the terrifying three-masted schooner, the Straw Hats set out again, to the last stop of the first half of the Great Voyage, the Chambord Islands.

In the Chambord Islands, the Straw Hats once again welcomed a guest they didn't expect.
