"You don't talk much about your brother, but I really haven't heard you say anything about it."

"You know, I'm Roger's son, but I never have any impression of my parents, and I only heard about them from other people's mouths."

"Roger's saber is called Ace."

"Is that so? But it doesn't matter anymore. ”

Looking at the flame burning on his finger, Ace's mind also returned to the past.

"I grew up in the bandits' territory, and although they are bandits, they are a good bunch of people, and Karp should also call him grandpa, although he doesn't spend as much time with them as Dadan, but every year he takes the time to come back.

But at that time, Luffy and I didn't really want to see him, and every time we met, we chased after us, saying that we had to go to the navy and see him again after we went to sea, and it was in Impelton. ”

Marco didn't interject, just waited quietly for Ace to finish talking about it.

"So what."

"If grandpa he really fell into that kind of place. I felt like I should go and save him, but"

The flame in his hand went out, and Ace sat up again.

"Dad's last words I thought about for a long time, I don't have the strength of the emperor of the sea, some words are just empty talk, the responsibility is not so easy to bear, I used to. Too impulsive.

If you're not so impulsive, maybe now"

"It's a good thing to understand this, Dad, he doesn't want to die in bed like an old man, and he can exit the scene with a vigorous attitude and shout that sentence in the world, which can be regarded as completing his goal.

So you don't have to blame yourself all the time, it's a pity, if Dad can see your growth earlier, it will be more gratifying. ”

After Whitebeard's death, Ace was able to grow, and he had experienced a lot in the past two years, plus he experienced the consequences of impulsiveness.

In today's Three Pirates Solidarity Alliance, the remaining living space of the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates is likely to be further compressed, and he must not make too impulsive decisions at this time.

Karp is his grandfather, but he has nothing to do with the Whitebeard Pirates, and he himself has a deep connection with the Whitebeard Pirates, and he can't just take the Whitebeard Pirates into the abyss.

Even if Whitebeard was still alive, he wouldn't be at war with all three of them at the same time.

The other party's alliance has just been formed, and they may be waiting for an opportunity to stand up.

"You can't tell where your grandfather is now, can you? Even the Navy hasn't given exact news, they definitely have your grandfather's life card and looks like they're worried about something.

You are quite right, it is not advisable to act rashly, but it is okay to just investigate the situation and go to the neighborhood to take a look, the navy cannot do nothing about it, we just need to seize the opportunity.

Izo also wants to investigate the cause of Mr. Mita's death, and he doesn't believe the beast's words at all, so maybe you can join in. ”

"Well, that makes sense"

After growing up, Ace did not act extremely impulsively, but calmed down and decided to wait and see for a while.

As Marco said, it should be the world government and the navy that are more anxious about this kind of thing.

Except for these people who are directly or indirectly related to Karp, the focus of other forces on this matter is completely different.

Deep Sea, Fish-Man Island.

Neptune and the others, who had just finished visiting the Divine Grace Ceremony, had returned to Ryugu Castle and reached trade with several countries in the Hundred Beast Territory, seeing the supreme power and the ideal country in their dreams, Otohime was now full of energy.

Not only did she visit Wano Country, but she also audited the classes of the monastery, and although she did not become a fanatic, she also had new goals for the future.

Before they could digest the news, the news of the Grand Alliance was sent to Fish-Man Island.

"Their alliance, the seas of the New World, are almost coming together."

"Isn't this a good thing, if the emperors of the sea choose to join forces, there will be a lot less war on the sea in the new world, right?

Nowadays, there are very few ships that can enter Fish-Man Island, so we have more room to move.

The new Fish-Man Island has also settled down, and it is time for us to arrange for the residents who want to live there to go there, and the future of this new home is very good. ”

"Stability is not necessarily, the hinterland of their territory will become more stable, but the outside may usher in the impact of more pirates, plus the matter of Karp, the navy will not always pretend to be deaf and dumb, I am afraid there will be a big war."

Neptune is not as optimistic as Otohime, but is worried about what might happen.

"By the way, do you want to agree to their opinion about Haku?"

"Try to help as much as you can, there is no possibility of relaxation between us and the world government, if we don't overthrow the current world government, we will not have a new life, and the revolutionary army is also a force."

Fish-Man Island has mixed feelings about the future, and while they see hope, they also need to worry about the cruelty of reality.

On the other hand, in the country of Hezhi, as the base camp of the beasts today, there is a new attitude inside.

"Extra! Extra! The Red-Haired Pirates and BIG· The MOM Pirates have formed an alliance with Lord Myo! Intruder Karp arrested! ”

The news of Wano Country is a self-corrected version of the Hundred Beasts, which is more favorable to the Hundred Beasts in terms of description, and it is not affected by the naval smoke bombs, so the citizens at this time see a more realistic situation.

"What is a very famous intruder? It's been a long time since I've seen news like this. ”

"I heard that it is a very famous navy, and it is called a hero, but it was Lord Kuzan and Lord Quinn who took it down, and Lord Ming didn't make a move at all."

"Ah, isn't that weak?"

A few newspaper readers on the street discussed the situation, but a very different opinion came from the side.

"Very weak? But the newspapers say it's a very strong navy. ”

"I mean, Lord Quinn personally took action, I heard that Lord Quinn is very cautious and never takes risks, isn't the enemy who can let him take the initiative to attack?"

"You seem to have some truth in saying that."

Quinn's cautious style has been spread in the country of Wano for some time, and the people who are most afraid of things are rushing to the first place, which is obviously the strength of the other party, so he went up to fight for credit.

Ordinary people don't know how much pressure there is behind Quinn's bravery, passive avoidance of war will make Kaido dissatisfied, and Hawkins's metaphysics makes Quinn worry about upsetting Arceus.

In this pirate group, at the same time, these two are dissatisfied, that is, Yamato has to lose his skin.

Unfortunately, outsiders don't know about this kind of thing.

So with the spread of the newspaper, Karp's news has become an alternative version in Wano Country, from a veteran who was dragged down by new recruits to a stupid boy who doesn't know how high the sky is.

"These people are also very good at finding opportunities, they actually know that they have an alliance with Lord Ming, and sure enough, Lord Ming is the strongest."

"Actually, I think the Lord of the Heavenly Emperor is stronger."

"That's a god, isn't that a matter of course? It's funny to think that the so-called kings have never seen the world before. ”

The young people are laughing and talking about this, but the older generation is silent, and these people know very well that the original Wano Country is the real person who has never seen the world.

In addition to the alliance and Karp, the person who deserves their attention the most is Kuzan, as the main force of this operation, and the newspapers in Wano country have praised Kuzan's actions.

"Mother-in-law, today's newspaper."

In Hakumai's hut, Hanako brings a newspaper to her grandmother.

"Isn't this the little brother from that time? He's done a great job, too.

It's a rare honor to be rewarded by the Lord of the Heavenly Palace."

Wiping her reading glasses, the old woman determined the information on them word by word, and there seemed to be a smile on her wrinkled face.

The streets of Wano Country are also full of discussions about this matter.

At the headquarters of the Navy, the atmosphere here is very solemn.

"The Basque Movement Team is certain dead, and the pirates have formed this unprecedented alliance, a comparable to . No, a more powerful force of pirates than the Blox Pirates has emerged. ”

In the office, Akainu and Tsuru and others sat around the table, this was a high-level meeting that ordinary vice admirals were not qualified to participate in, and all of them who came here were at the highest level of the Navy.

"What about Karp's side? The news of the Morgan update had some impact on us, and although the morale was not too low with the previous arrangement, it was also a question of how to deal with this matter. ”

'We don't have enough troops to rescue Karp, and to do this, we need to gather the best troops from all over the world, and the generals of the branch must also be concentrated.

If they do so, the Revolutionary Army and other pirates will probably destroy the countless years of accumulation of the navy. ’

Sengoku and Tsuru were irritated by this, and now they had abandoned their personal feelings and were only studying the matter as a navy.

"Salvation must be saved, if the soldiers know that we have even given up the rescue of the great hero Karp, how can they believe us in the future?

But we can't go to the rescue immediately, after all, our ability is insufficient, let's plan a rescue, but don't specify the specific time. ”

A lie often requires countless lies to fix, and Akainu can only draw a pie for the Navy first, saying that he will try to rescue Karp at the right time, and it is not certain when to save him.

"That's it, at least it will stabilize the mood of the soldiers, how about the new bounty order?"

"It's also ready, and when the world government approves it, the latest news can be sent."

This time, the bounty personnel are not simple, and it is no longer something that the Navy can make a decision alone.

"Well, it doesn't make much sense, but it makes our attitude clear."

It's unheard of for a bounty hunter to catch billions of bounties, and to the point where raising the bounty is in a way just telling others that we're serious about our work.

At the same time, near the Red Earth Continent, the figure of the Origin appeared here.

The Red Earth Continent is very large, it is a huge land that surrounds the entire planet, even the World Government does not have an all-round garrison, although the current location is close to the Red Earth Continent, it does not have the prosperity of Chigang, but has a barren feeling.

"Stop."

At the sound of a command, the Origin stopped, but the people on board didn't know why they were here, including Shaina.

They were only carrying out Arceus's orders, and seeing that the ship had dropped anchor and had no further action, Shayna came to Arceus and respectfully asked:

"Lord Holy Beast, is there anything important here?"

"No, it's just to visit an old man."
