Chapter 561: Cause and Effect (I)

The waters of Atwall are a sea with a changeable climate, but in the New World, there are more seas with a changeable climate, and the waters of Atwall are actually nothing.

Originally, this sea area was just an unknown place in the new century, but more than 20 years ago, the pirate group of One Piece Roger and Golden Lion Shiki fought in this sea area, but this sea area was widely known to the world.

In that battle, the strength and number of the Golden Lion Pirates can be said to have completely crushed Roger's Pirates, however, when the two sides were fighting, a strange storm suddenly struck, the Golden Lion Pirates had more ships, and the greater the impact, but Roger only had one ship, taking advantage of the chaos in the Golden Lion Pirates, Roger and his men successfully completed the counter-killing!

This naval battle is known as the Battle of Atwall by the world, which is a very commemorative naval battle, which not only represents a typical victory over the strong by the weak, but also because after this battle, most of the fleet of the Golden Lion Shiki sank, and the Golden Lion Pirates were hit hard, and they were no longer able to stop Roger's advance, and Roger also defeated the Golden Lion Shiki, crossed the route of the New World, and successfully landed on the final island of Lovelder, achieving the title of One Piece.

Although it didn't take long for Roger to disband his pirate group, and surrender to the navy, and then he was executed in Rogue Town, the so-called title of One Piece only lasted for two or three years, but whenever the world mentions Roger, the One Piece, they still can't help but think of this Battle of Atwall......

And now, after more than 20 years, this sea area has once again attracted the attention of the world, but this time it is not the duel between the Golden Lion Pirates and the Roger Pirates, but the duel between the Navy and the Whitebeard Pirates.

The area of the Atwall Sea is about a radius of hundreds of nautical miles, and the sea areas of the New World have their own characteristics, and the Atwall Sea is no exception, the most famous here is the reef!

Yes, in many places below the surface of the sea, there are endless coral reefs, these coral reefs grow here for many years, and the shape is irregular, the lower ones are still dozens or hundreds of meters from the sea surface, but the higher ones have stretched out of the water, forming rocks and even small islands with strange shapes on the sea surface.

More often than not, they are hidden in a very subtle position under the water's surface, which makes it easy to say that the ships traveling in this area are small enough, but if they are a little larger, there is a high chance of hitting the rocks.

Over the years, there have been countless pirate ships that have been silent in this area because they have run aground.

Of course, this does not mean that this sea area is completely impossible for ships to navigate, in fact, although these reefs are widely distributed in this sea area, but strictly speaking, there is a certain pattern, they are centered on the Atwall Island reef group here, spreading in all directions, which is also the origin of the name of this sea area.

The Atwall reef group is actually composed of thousands of coral reefs of all sizes exposed to the water, which may only allow a few seals to inhabit them, but the large ones can reach an area of several kilometers, which can be called a small island.

At present, more than 500 warships of the Navy Headquarters have formed a large circular position here, surrounding the Atwall Island and reef groups.

How so? That's because Whitebeard Edward Newgate may be hiding on one of the small islands of this reef!

It is worth mentioning that about two hundred nautical miles northwest of the waters of Atwal, it is the base camp of the Whitebeard Pirates.

The territory of the Whitebeard Pirates is very wide, in the New World, a large part of the area is included in Whitebeard's sphere of influence, and at the same time, in various parts of the Great Voyage, there are also enclaves such as Fish-Man Island as territory, and the people in these places are wearing the banner of the Whitebeard Pirates to seek refuge, if you add up these enclaves, the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates is really unimaginable.

However, even with such a huge territory, there is only one base camp for the Whitebeard Pirates.

Now, Edward Newgate the Whitebeard is not in his base camp, but in the reefs of Atwall Island, for the simple reason that they are ambushed!

When Blackbeard Titch killed Thatch, the captain of the fourth team, snatched the Devil Fruit and defected from the Whitebeard Pirates, Whitebeard's father was furious, and Ace felt that Titch was a member of his second team, and as the captain, he was responsible for it, so Daddy finally acquiesced to let him attack and capture Titch.

However, Daddy had a bad premonition in his heart at that time, so he asked Ace to find Ian and go to sea with him to capture Teach.

It was a bad decision, but it saved Ace's life, and it was because of Ian's intervention that Ace successfully captured the Blackbeard Pirates.

Killing his companion is a big crime, but when he really saw Titch, Dad still relented, for the enemy, Dad can kill him mercilessly, but for Titch, the former righteous son who has been on the ship for decades, Dad still can't bear it.

His longing for his family is beyond the imagination of others, and there is a sentence that doesn't say, the son does not teach the father's fault? During the time when Ace went to arrest Titch, Dad thought a lot, in fact, he still blamed himself a little about this matter, but in front of his sons, he didn't show it.

So Whitebeard was very embarrassed about whether to execute Titch.

During the time he was captured, Tiki was also very uncomfortable, and he was hung from the mast of the Moby Dick by his father and whipped with a whip!

And it's Daddy himself!

Lao Tzu beat his son, this is a natural thing, plus the matter of Tiqi killing his companion, Marco and their group of captains, no one opened their mouths to intercede for him, just held their hands and watched coldly.

However, what they didn't know was that Titch's sight of this scene once again aggravated the anger in his heart.

Daddy beats him while drinking, it looks like domestic violence, but in fact, who can understand Whitebeard's inner anguish, he is purely using alcohol to kill his sorrows, he is afraid that if he doesn't drink, he will not be willing to punish Titch......

Titch was beaten by his father for three whole days, and these three days can be said to have made Titch tortured, and his dark fruit would have caused him to suffer twice the pain, so you can imagine how difficult it was for him to endure these three days.

When he was put down, Titch was already dying, and he fell to his knees in front of Whitebeard with all his strength, crying bitterly and begging his father to give him a chance to confess his mistakes to him alone.

What he didn't know was that in fact, after beating him for three days, his anger had almost disappeared, and deep down he had actually forgiven him.

Unfortunately, Titch didn't know this, on the contrary, the torture he received for the past three days made him hold a huge anger in his heart, and he planned to carry out his next plan without hesitation.

Daddy just needed a step down, so he agreed to Teach's request, and waved Marco and Ace off the boat for the time being.

This guy Titch has a really complex personality, wild and vulgar, ambitious but very conceited, but he is still an acting school, he has been in the Whitebeard Pirates for so many years, and he has played the image of a good old man to the fullest, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of the Dark Fruit, who would have known that he would be able to kill his companions ruthlessly?

This time it was the same, he fell to his knees, tearfully confessed his mistakes, and told his father that he had actually had an argument with Thatch and killed Thatch by mistake, but later escaped from the Whitebeard Pirates because he was afraid of punishment.

Because of Ian's appearance, Titch did not capture Ace to ask for credit from the Navy in exchange for the position of the Seven Martial Seas as in the original history, so that his fame did not spread, which led to Daddy's serious underassessment of his threat, and finally believed what he said.

Beat and scolded, scolded and scolded, is it possible for the father to really be ruthless and kill his own son with his own hands?

So, Daddy sighed, walked over to Teach, bent down, and stretched out his hand to Teachy again, as he had done to Ace's sons, ready to take Titch back again.

However, it was at this time that Titch suddenly had a hard time, and without the restriction of Hailoushi's handcuffs, he took out a sailor knife that he had hidden in his dark cave space and plunged it into Whitebeard's chest!

The completely defenseless father was immediately hit, and when he was stabbed, his tall body couldn't help but tremble, and he looked at Tiqi with a hideous face in front of him in disbelief......

And this guy Titch, after stabbing into it, also came to his senses, looking at the anger that gradually accumulated in his father's eyes, he also felt frightened, and quickly threw away Whitebeard, ran to the cabin, and released his companion Lafayette and others.

Daddy clutched his chest, half-kneeling on the deck, his hands covered in blood, watching them put down the boat in a hurry, trying to escape, the angry Whitebeard slammed his fist in the direction of Titch.

The five members of the Blackbeard Pirates were shocked by this punch and spurted out a mouthful of blood in unison, falling from the Moby Dick, but this kind of injury was not enough to kill them directly, and the five of them struggled to climb onto the boat, and with the last strength of milk, rowed into the distance.

Whitebeard's punch was naturally felt by Marco and Ace, who were staying on the island, and they felt that something was wrong, so they hurried back to the boat, but what they saw was Whitebeard vomiting blood and falling to the ground......
