Chapter 144: Variables

The time for the much-anticipated execution has finally arrived, and the world is watching this rare event.

The appearance of the Whitebeard Pirates undoubtedly pushed this incident to a new height.

The enthusiasm of the people is getting higher and higher, and as it spreads, people who didn't pay much attention to this matter have also become curious.

And the next battle between the two sides was even more intense.

As outsiders, they don't care about the reason for this battle, the meaning behind it, and the deep emotions.

As long as there is excitement to see, you can judge it, no matter what the final result is, it will not affect their enthusiasm at the moment.

And here at the Navy Headquarters, Luffy, who had just come to the battlefield, also saw the situation on the field clearly.

They weren't late, the battle had just begun,

And Crocodall, who came with him, kept his eyes fixed on Whitebeard in the distance, as if he had found almost.

The ability to turn into sand is activated, and it instantly flies over Whitebeard, and it is about to attack.

This sudden change made people on both sides a little stunned. Skuyard watched as the sand crocodile got closer and closer, and did not stop.

Whitebeard was also unmoved, and he didn't look at Klockdahl behind him, but said rather contemptuously, "Dogs can't change eating!" ”

"Whitebeard, it's been a long time."

Klockdahl didn't expect the sneak attack to be successful, and he only launched the attack after making a sound.

However, this blow was easily blocked by Luffy using the ability of second gear.

"Stop, this uncle should be Whitebeard, Ace likes him the most, I can't let you hurt him."

Luffy seems to have been prepared for a long time, and he will not be armed with a domineering man, and his body is full of water that restrains sand.

"Hehe, I'm just here to say hello, this is not a good place to challenge Whitebeard."

I don't know where Lao Sha's confidence came from, he can be defeated by Luffy, who was not in second gear at the time, and now he is facing the Four Emperors Whitebeard, but he can say challenging words.

Is it stupid to stay in prison?

Whitebeard turned his head to look at Luffy, noticed the straw hat on his back, and for a moment remembered Shanks' broken arm.

I remember asking Shanks before who could hurt him in the East China Sea. Shanks didn't answer positively, only said that his arm was bet on him in the new era.

At that time, Whitebeard didn't quite understand what the other party meant, but now it seems that Shanks has bet on the little ghost in front of him.

"You're here to save your brother?"

Whitebeard asked indifferently.

"That's right!"

Luffy replied in the affirmative.

"Do you know who the enemy is? A little imp like you will die at any moment! ”

"You don't care about me, I just want to save Ace.

Also, you can't be the king of the pirates, because only I can become the king of the pirates. ”

Luffy's domineering declaration shocked the people around him, whether it was the navy or the pirates, they didn't expect that in front of Whitebeard, a little ghost would dare to say such a thing.

In the face of the superiors, especially the emperor like Whitebeard, who has the ability to turn mountains and seas.

The people who spoke to him were all cautious and cautious, for fear that if they made a mistake, they would bring disaster to themselves.

And Luffy is a stunned young man who does something that everyone only dares to think about in their heads, and they can't help but be shocked.

"It's arrogant."

Whitebeard didn't get angry, but laughed happily. "Don't hold back."

"I have my own rescue plan, so I don't have to worry about it.

As we arrived, we heard a telegram saying that the time of Ace's execution could be determined by the circumstances.

I don't know what it means, but I think I should talk to my uncle. ”

"Really? This news is important, I see. ”

Whitebeard is not stupid, he sees the intention of the navy, this is to hang him, if the navy has the upper hand on the battlefield, Ace can solve it at any time.

And if the pirates have the upper hand, then Ace must be executed as soon as possible, in short, the navy must not be disgraced, Ace must die.

In this case, you can't attack too fiercely on your side, and you have to rescue Ace before the navy reacts.

Otherwise, no matter how hard they try now, it will be in vain.

"Little ghost, you go to save Ace, I'll stop the people who stop you."

Whitebeard turned his head to look at Luffy and explained.

He found that Luffy was currently the most suitable candidate to rush to the front, and once he and Ace had a deep relationship, no matter what difficulties they encountered, they would not back down.

Second, Luffy's strength is not strong and he will not be focused on, as long as he attracts enough firepower, he can keep rushing forward.

"Oh, uncle, how do you know my plan?"

Luffy was taken aback and asked suspiciously.

"Haha, let's go, don't delay."

Whitebeard laughed out loud, admiring Luffy's courage and his silliness.

He seemed to understand Shanks' choice, because he saw the figure of his deceased friend in Luffy, which made him full of comfort.

Luffy didn't hesitate to be long-winded, jumped off the white-bearded pirate ship, and ran towards the place where Ace was locked in front of him with a roar.

"Karp, you should have taken good care of your grandson before, otherwise, you wouldn't have both folded here today."

Sengoku's face was gloomy, and the criminals who were supposed to stay in the Advance City actually ran out at this moment, and they were still mixed with Luffy.

No matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with the straw hat boy.

Karp didn't speak, just looked at Luffy who was running towards him, and suddenly thought of Luffy's time when he was young, when he also ran towards Karp like this, with a big smile on his face.

But at this moment, the same action represents a completely different meaning, and Karp doesn't know how to react.

The Warring States said a word, so I won't say more. He didn't really blame Karp for this, knowing that the other party spent most of his time fighting pirates and didn't spend much time with his family.

Now that both grandsons have become pirates, Karp can't be blamed for it.

It's just a coincidence that it's the relatives around him who have problems, so he can't help but be angry with Karp.

The battle is still ongoing, and there are already lieutenant generals joining the battle, and the captain of Whitebeard's side is also participating in it one after another.

At this time, Skuyad, who was standing next to Whitebeard, seemed to have determined his own idea, that is, to exchange the righteous act of killing his relatives for the safety of his companions.

He walked forward with his feet up, past Whitebeard.

"It's time to make a decision on Skuyad, it's time to do it."

Whitebeard had always been aware of his son, so he asked out loud.

"Yes, Daddy, for the sake of the Whitebeard Pirates, even if I give everything, I will not hesitate to do it."

Skuyad slowly drew the long sword in his hand and said with a firm expression. "That's it, it's hard for you, this operation, Aceta..."

Before Whitebeard could finish his sentence, Skuyad had already interrupted him.

"It's okay, this is Daddy's love for Ace, I really hope you can use this kind of care for the rest of us."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to start. The Akainu in the distance had been staring at Skuyard's movements, and when he saw this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up again.

As long as Whitebeard is injured, then the navy's plan to eliminate the Whitebeard Pirates in one fell swoop will be successful.

Except for Akainu, no one knew about this plan, so no one thought that Skuyard, the person next to Whitebeard, would commit an act of betrayal.

Everyone's attention was on the battlefield, and Whitebeard seemed to be unaware, still standing there motionless.

Just when Skuyad raised his sword and was about to carry out a sneak attack.

There was a "bang", and a louder sound sounded on the battlefield than when Luffy and them appeared just now.

At such a tense and critical moment, Skuyad's heart felt like it was about to explode.

He thought about how his body would float in the sky after he succeeded, and how he would be torn apart by the angry white beard.

However, this sudden sound made Skuyard, who was tense and nervous, tremble his arm and his steps were chaotic.

The inevitable blow passed through the gaps between Whitebeard's arms and body.

"Rubbish!"

Seeing this, Akainu gritted his teeth and cursed, followed by the smoke coming from his body, and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

And Whitebeard here, he looked down, the Skuyard who was looking up at him stupidly, there was such a moment of embarrassment between the two.

Then Whitebeard's voice sounded, filling Skuyad's eyes with shock.

"Skuard, do you want to do it again? Daddy is willing to stay still like he did just now and let you stab you again. ”

"You knew it from the beginning? Yes, even if you don't know what I'm thinking, domineering can spot my actions.

It's me who is too stupid, too nervous, and self-deluded to convince myself that as long as the distance is close enough, I will definitely be able to succeed if I am surprised. ”

Skuyard's body trembled, Whitebeard's performance caught him off guard, and he couldn't understand why he stood still when he knew he was going to attack.

"I understand the pain in your heart, but Ace doesn't know anything, and your family's affairs have nothing to do with him, you should understand!

I have the same attitude towards him as I do towards you, and you are all my sons.

However, since you have already misunderstood, Daddy knows your personality, it is useless to be reasonable, maybe you can only let you vent it out, and then you can understand whether what I said is true or not. ”

Whitebeard's tone was full of father's love, he didn't blame Skuyard for his recklessness and stupidity, his son had made a mistake, and it was his duty to be a father to get him back on the right track.

"Dad, I'm sorry, I thought you betrayed the pirates and wanted to bring us over to die, I was wrong!"

Hearing what Whitebeard said, Skuyad came to his senses in an instant, threw away the sword in his hand, and knelt down in front of Whitebeard and wept bitterly.

He's such an impulsive person beforehand and who understands afterwards, and Akainu also took a fancy to this, so he started from him, but he didn't expect to be destroyed by the unexpected movement.

And this time, it was none other than Lu Gui and his party, who had been working hard to make this move.

After a lot of hard work, I finally arrived. Standing on the deck at the bow of the ship, Lu Gui let out a sigh of relief.

"Haha, I'm not late."
