Chapter 257: The Whitebeard Pirates Assemble
New world.
On a certain area of the sea.
A large number of pirate ships gathered here, and these pirate ships all flew a variety of different flags, but most of them were based on skulls, and so many pirate ships gathered together, faintly creating an extremely oppressive atmosphere.
At the very center of these pirate ships, and at the very front, a large ship is docked, and the flag on the sail is the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates.
"Isn't the sabertooth shark here yet?"
Marko, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, was standing at the front of the deck, looking at the many pirate ships gathered on the sea with a cold face, and spoke in a deep voice.
The Sabertooth Pirates are one of the pirates under Whitebeard's command.
There are a large number of pirates under Whitebeard's command, which can be said to be the most among all the Four Emperors, after all, Whitebeard is a pirate who once had an era with Roger, and he is also the first Four Emperors on the sea, and there are forty-three pirates under his command!
When he learned that the Navy Headquarters was going to publicly execute Ace, Whitebeard directly summoned all the pirates who were attached to the Whitebeard Pirates.
If the navy wants to publicly execute Fire Fist Ace, it will never be tolerated!
As one of the legends of the past, as the owner of the title of 'the strongest man in the world', as the Four Emperors Whitebeard...... Even the headquarters of the Navy will not be able to back down!
Although Whitebeard also knew that this was most likely Blackbeard's conspiracy, and that Blackbeard maliciously induced him to go to war with the Navy Headquarters, he knew that he would not do this kind of thing if he wanted him to sit idly by and ignore his son, and he would not be able to do it.
"They said they had a little bit of trouble, but they were able to get there soon."
Someone with a phone bug pointed at Marco.
Marco looked at Whitebeard, who was sitting not far away.
Whitebeard raised his head slightly, and said, "Keep waiting, that stinky boy from Nadas won't be here, since he said that he was in trouble, it was probably intercepted by the navy." ”
Marco nodded.
In this new world, there are many pirates who want to be attached to Whitebeard's command, but not everyone will accept them, and the most important thing is to be benevolent!
The saber-toothed shark Nadas is also the captain of the ship with a bounty of more than 300 million, and Marco is also very familiar with him, drinking many times at parties, and going out to fight together.
"Everyone else is here except Nadas."
Standing on the side of the ship, Diamond Joz, the captain of the third team, looked at the many pirate ships parked on the sea, and then looked at the people gathered on this deck, and said, "It's still reliable at the critical moment...... This time I'm going to fight with the Navy Headquarters, are you all afraid? ”
The forty-two captains of the pirates under Whitebeard's command had all gathered on the deck at this moment, along with the captains of Whitebeard's own group, all gathered here.
Hearing Joz's words, someone grinned and said, "I don't know what about the Navy Headquarters, but I know that someone wants to kill Captain Ace, so I have to let him know the price!" ”
"That's right!"
"Ruined the Navy Headquarters!"
Many captains and captains of the sub-regiment spoke one after another.
Ace is extremely popular in the Whitebeard Pirates, sunny and friendly, and rushes to the front in every battle, shielding all his companions from the wind and rain, whether it is the captains of the regiment or the captains of these sub-groups, the relationship between Ace and Ace is like a brother.
"The Navy Headquarters is not that simple."
Whitebeard glanced at the angry crowd, raised his head slightly, and said, "But if you want to hurt my son, you have to pay the price, because Lao Tzu is ...... Whitebeard! ”
A slightly domineering voice came, adding a bit of momentum to the captains, with Whitebeard, the 'strongest in the world', no matter what the enemy in front of them was, they almost all had confidence and confidence, even if it was the Navy Headquarters!
"Don't go back to your ship yet, have lunch here, it won't be long before that guy from Nadas arrives, and then we'll go."
Marko looked at the time and greeted the commanders of the many sub-regiments.
Everyone answered, and soon had dinner on the deck.
The deck of the Moby Dick was large enough to accommodate dozens of people without looking very crowded, and Whitebeard had eaten a little, quietly waiting for the arrival of the last fleet.
Time passed quietly.
Soon after.
A pirate ship that seemed to have just gone through a battle approached and quickly approached the fleet of the Whitebeard Pirates, the last of which was under Whitebeard's command.
"It seems that it was a tough battle, did you meet the navy?"
Marco stood on the deck and said to Nadas on the deck of the fleet, "It looks like he's seriously injured, can he still fight?" ”
Nadas had a bandage wrapped around his shoulders, looked up at Marco and said, "A little injury, it's no problem, but it's not the navy, it's the guy under Kaido." ”
"Kaido ......"
Marco's face was slightly cold, and he turned his head to look at Whitebeard.
Whitebeard narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "I don't have time to pay attention to Kaido's kid now, if you can still fight, Nadas, you can set off with the fleet!" ”
"Okay, Daddy."
Nadas answered cleanly, and then ordered his crew to steer the ship, turn course, and sail to the far right of the fleet.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Whitebeard stood up from the deck, and his height like that of a giant clan stood there like a mountain peak, which made Marco and the others feel extremely down-to-earth.
"So...... Let's go! ”
Whitebeard walked to the front of the deck with his naginata, his eyes flashing open, and his voice resounded throughout the sea.
For a while, countless pirates shouted in response, and the fleets stationed here also put away their anchors one after another, led by the Moby Dick, and headed forward.
Target...... Navy Headquarters!
Everyone was shouting, everyone was looking excited, looking at Whitebeard's back with a bit of respect and fanaticism, they clenched their sword hilts with murderous energy.
But only the captain of the team, Marco, looked at the back of Whitebeard, but there was a deep worry in his eyes.
He is the captain of the Ichiban team and the ship doctor of the Whitebeard Pirates.
He is the one who knows Whitebeard's physical condition best.
Whitebeard has held the title of the world's strongest for decades, relying on his monster-like body and strength, as well as the ability of the Shock Fruit that has terrified countless people.
The power of this fruit is indeed extremely powerful, and with all its strength, it can easily overturn and destroy an island...... But the power is not without any price, this devil fruit has been used for many years, and it will have a certain amount of dark damage to the body, and it will continue to accumulate.
Whitebeard's health has been getting worse and worse in the past two years.
In the first few years, with his Regenerative Flame, it was relatively easy to suppress Whitebeard's dark wounds, but in recent years, his Regenerative Flame has no effect.
After all, it was his own fruit ability, an ability that belonged to the form of an immortal bird of the phantom beast species, and if it was used by others, it would not cause a real regeneration effect.
Especially in the last year, as a ship doctor, Marco knew very well that Whitebeard's dark injuries would occur from time to time, and it must have been very painful, but Whitebeard endured the pain, at most he only frowned inadvertently occasionally.
The others were unaware of Whitebeard's abnormality, but Marco, as the ship's doctor, who was constantly watching Whitebeard's condition, knew that it must be very painful.
But he couldn't help it.
His healing abilities have reached their limits.
"Daddy......"
Marco gritted his teeth.
If it was ten years ago, even if it was five years ago, his father would not be worried at all, but now he can't help but worry, because those dark injuries are too deadly.
Whitebeard stood at the very front of the deck for a moment with his naginata, and then turned around again and sat down in his seat.
Marco came over to give Whitebeard a brief check-up, and when he noticed that Whitebeard's condition was stable, he breathed a sigh of relief, but his worry remained intact.
"Don't worry about anything, Marco."
Whitebeard glanced at Marco and said, "There is no problem with Lao Tzu's body, that guy in the Warring States dares to execute Ace, this time Lao Tzu will cut off his head." ”
Hearing Whitebeard's words, Marco smiled and said, "With Daddy here, the Navy is definitely not an opponent, but to rescue Ace, you need to make a plan, and you can't let Ace be harmed." ”
"Hmm."
Whitebeard nodded and said, "What do you think?" ”
Marco thought about it, had some strategy, and was about to say it, when suddenly someone jumped down from the top of the sail and said to Marco and Whitebeard:
"Daddy! Captain Marco! A ship is coming! ”
"Huh?"
Marco turned his head, frowned slightly, and said, "It's the navy?" Or Kaido? Are you looking for trouble at this point in time? ”
"No, it's not the Navy and it's not Kaido, it's a small ship...... It's like just one person. ”
Hearing the man's words, Whitebeard also looked sideways.
Marco was slightly surprised.
Here, the entire fleet of their Whitebeard Pirates was advancing, and at this point in time, they dared to come closer, it was still a small boat and a person, and most of them were not here to find trouble.
Marco leaped to the top of the sail and looked out to sea, where he saw a small boat riding the waves.
The boat was so small that it didn't even have sails, but it was windless, and the currents below seemed to carry the boat forward, and it was moving like an arrow.
"That guy is ......"
Looking at the figure on the boat, Mal's light flickered slightly.
On this sea, there are not many people who can impress him, but the person on that small boat is one of the people who impresses him a little.
This impression comes from a newspaper a few days ago, which reported that the other party was in the Chambord Islands, and the Straw Hats who helped beat the Draconians escape, and the words of the most heinous crime.
Along with this newspaper, there is also a bounty that the other party has been released.
1 billion Baileys!
The other party's name is 'Wind Whisperer', and his name is Nami, who was once one of Albarez's cadres!
