The humid sea breeze suddenly swept onto the balcony, and Yare and Bruno and the others were lying on the benches in summer shirts, silent, enjoying the cool coconut water and the slightly hot sun.

“......”

Carla sat up from the bench, picked up the water glass and took a sip of coconut water, while looking at the six roads, and after making sure that there was no one around, she muttered in a low voice:

"Boss, why did you refuse Whitebeard?"

"Do you need to ask?"

Yalei raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at him lightly, looked at the blue sky, and said calmly:

"If I want to annex the power of the Whitebeard Pirates, why bother to help him heal. Whitebeard is the mainstay of the uncharted pirate forces, and with him, there will be no chaos in the uncharted area. Under the premise of peace, we have a chance to integrate the power of the pirates without harm. ”

"But is it really reliable to use only money......

Kara shook her head, thinking of the ugliness of the pirate leaders when they opposed the setting of the base salary, and felt more and more that it was extremely unreliable to integrate Uncharted only from the economic level.

"If you just use money to solve problems, you will only be taken for fools. ”

The black-haired knight turned his head to look at him, his dark eyes flickering, and explained softly:

"The unified market is just a façade, and the profits earned will gradually grow into the pirates, who will have more ships, guns, and soldiers. On this basis, if Whitebeard can recover his health, and with our help, he will definitely become the king of the pirates as long as he wants. ”

"In this case, you can unite with the Whitebeard Pirates to attack Ghost Island! You want a ship, Whitebeard wants a territory, and both sides take what they need, the best of both worlds!"

Kara seemed to be enlightened, her eyebrows fluttering in anticipation of the future, and then she suddenly frowned again, and reached out and scratched her hair:

"But what if Whitebeard doesn't want to be the King of the Pirates, or has no intention of attacking Ghost Island?"

"In case this happens......"

Yalei raised his head, his pupils stared at the radiant sun, pursed his lips with a solemn expression, and sighed suddenly: "Only I will be the king of the pirates, rule the entire uncharted sea, and solve the stubborn problem of Ghost Island for them." ”

"One Piece?"

Bruno blinked his thick eyelashes, opened one eye, and wrapped a strand of hair around his slender fingers, while turning over to face the black-haired knight, and smiled lightly:

"If you say that, I'm starting to look forward to the second option. ”

"It's all the same. ”

The black-haired knight closed his eyes and didn't say anything more.

At this moment, a sudden sound of trumpets broke the calm inside and outside the castle, and everyone immediately rolled over from the benches and rushed to the balcony to look down.

......

Outside Whitebeard Castle, on the rocky ground of the rolling waves.

"Woooooo

With the sound of a sharp trumpet, a tall, thin figure walked alone towards the castle with his back to the sun, a narrow black shadow cutting the ground behind him in half.

There was chaos inside and outside the castle, and archers in different clothes with bows and arrows in their hands poured out of the castle one after another, pulling their bowstrings and aiming at each other with rows of sharp arrows.

In front of the team of archers, a crowded team of thousands of people was lined up, and pirates dressed in different suits were holding spears, knives, axes, and other weapons, blocking the way of each other's advance.

"Stop him, stop him!"

"Daddy is taking medicine right now, can't let him get near the castle!"

"Hurry up, go and inform all the bosses, don't let the other party get close to Daddy!"

The hoarse roars of the pirates rang out from the ranks, and they stood shoulder to shoulder, as if they could draw courage from their companions, raising their weapons and forming a human wall to slowly move forward.

“......”

The red-haired man continued on without looking, the backlit shadow obscuring his face, making it impossible for the pirates to see the man's expression, except for a pair of starry eyes, as if they could penetrate the barriers of space and pierce their hearts.

Knock-knock-knock-!

Wisps of footsteps gradually approached from the opposite side, and the pirates did not shout, but all stopped silently, giving people a strange and inexplicable feeling.

In their nervous vision, the man opposite also stopped his steps, facing the black pressure of the crowd, standing in place unmoved.

"I want to see Whitebeard and give me face. ”

The red-haired man looked at the pirate leaders led by him, and his voice was unexpectedly not the slightest hostile, but had a different hearty and loud voice.

"No, we must not let him see Daddy at this time!"

A tendriled pirate in a top hat and a blue-purple coat clenched his shoulders and whispered.

“......”

The leader of the pirates, Margao, stepped forward with clenched fists, looked at each other fiercely, and said in a tone that could not be refused:

"Your Excellency the Redhead, there is no guest here today, please come back another day. ”

"Don't see a guest?"

The redhead raised his tone abruptly, put one hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and feigned surprise and said, "Then what's going on with the Blackbeard Pirates' fleet in the port, is it possible...... Are they the spoils of your captives?"

"Blackbeard is a guest that Daddy personally greets, unlike you. ”

As Margao spoke, a muffled buzz sounded on his body, and after each sound, an extra cyan flame appeared on his body.

The flames seemed to be a part of his body, constantly assimilating the rest of his body, causing subtle changes in his size, as if he had swelled up and was much taller than before.

"Are you going to fight me?"

The red hair sighed slightly, the hair on his temples was windless, and a purple bright light gushed out from the depths of his eyes. Like a dazzling flare, it instantly shone in all directions, radiating on the enclosure network aimed at him.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the body of the pirate who was irradiated by the purple light was shocked, and his gaze became hollow and unfocused, as if he had been drained of his soul and vitality, and fell to the ground without saying a word.

In less than a second, a third of the siege against the red-haired was collapsed, and more than half of the remaining two-thirds of the pirates were trembling and couldn't even hold their weapons tightly.

"Redheads are not an opponent to be defeated by numbers...... You newcomers can't handle this yet, so hurry up and retreat. ”

Margao took a step forward, and a pair of huge cyan fire wings suddenly condensed from his back, and with a pop, he fanned the air current, whistling and flying towards his opponent.

“......”

The redhead raised his face, and there was a deepest flash in his eyes, and he exhaled, instantly clenching the narrow sword at his waist.

Qiang!

The flash of sword wind erupted into a dazzling light, and the air ripples that rose into the sky pierced through like a slash, and the furious hurricane instantly drowned Margau. (To be continued.) )
