Return

"Was this calculated from the very beginning?"

Nous was not as surprised as Ruri and Jesus Burgess upon hearing this!

He had already learned from Ye Liangnai's words that Ye Liangnai wanted to leave!

Therefore...

He was already mentally prepared, so he wasn't as surprised as Jesus Burgess and the others.

"But what will happen to your huge pirate crew if you leave? You don't really think that guy from the Navy will let your Lightning Pirate Group off the hook, do you?!"

Fire Fist Ace asked in surprise and confusion.

He wanted to know...

How could someone as brilliant Ye Liangnai suddenly become so confused about this matter?

Did he not care about the lives of his crew members?

In this way...

Bringing them here is incredibly irresponsible!

This is practically driving them to the brink of despair!

Perhaps if he hadn't brought these people here, they might not have incurred the Navy's wrath.

But now...

He has already defeated Sakazuki and has also incurred such a huge grudge against the Navy.

So he's leaving?

The Lightning Pirate Group were just his mortal companions.

Upon hearing this...

Ye Liangnai glanced at the Lightning Pirate Group and the others, and said, "Everyone, I would like to ask you to form an alliance with the New Whitebeard Pirates. What do you think?"

"Nous will be the captain, Ruri will be the first mate!"

Then...

He then looked at Marco, "What do you think? We're all just a bunch of sea wanderers, so there shouldn't be any mutual dislike!"

Hearing what Ye Liangnai said...

Marco, with an expression that clearly indicated he had expected this, said, "I knew you would say that!"

"That's right. You left, but you offended the Navy before you left. This is the only way to protect them!"

He scratched his head, somewhat annoyed, and said, "But this way, the World Government will probably be even more wary of us!"

Marco wasn't joking...

The combined influence of two pseudo -Yonko groups is far more terrifying than that of a single Yonko pirate crew!

There are too many people...

This would be a catastrophe for any power!

"Hahaha, isn't this exactly what we wanted—the fear of the World Government!"

Ye Liangnai laughed loudly, then glanced at Nous and the others, and said, "In that case, farewell, everyone!"

He then bowed to the crowd, saying, "Thank you all for your understanding and tolerance over the years. I am deeply grateful!"

After saying that...

They rushed through the gate!

These people weren't given a single chance to react!

"This guy, he's really living it up!"

Seeing this, Marco shook his head helplessly.

Seeing this, Nous could only shake his head helplessly. Ye Liangnai had left him with such a huge mess, it was really giving him a headache!

"Then, I'll be counting on your help from now on!"

Nous said politely to Marco.

"No, no, we'll look after each other!"

Marco dared not be overconfident!

In their alliance, no one can be arrogant; otherwise, if the relationship breaks down, they're finished.

None of them would stand a chance against the Navy's full strength!

"We won't reveal the secrets here, but we can't afford to be ignorant of them either; they'll be our bargaining chips for the future!"

Nous and Marco exchanged a glance, both seeing seriousness in each other's eyes.

One week later!

"Have you heard? The captain of the Lightning Pirate Group has perished on the Laugh Tale, and the Lightning Pirate Group have formed an alliance with the New Whitebeard Pirates!"
