Chapter 600
A shocking piece of news spread throughout the world in an instant.
"The Dark Lord Marshall D. Teach has a daughter!"
Since Mijela decided not to hide his identity, news about Mijela spread throughout the entire Night Pirates in no time, and all members knew Mijela's name and appearance.
Let them know that the Night Pirates will have a princess.
Marshall D. Mijela, the name of the Dark Emperor's daughter.
If this information is revealed to one's own members, it will inevitably be known to other forces, especially in a super-prosperous area like Pagila Island.
Teach never intended to hide it, nor did he need to. He simply wanted the whole world to know who his daughter was!
Even the large screen inside the Combat Pyramid was replaced with a picture of Mijela.
A long black dress, long silver hair, a delicate face, and a gentle smile on her lips.
He's really hiding his true abilities. I never expected the Dark Emperor to suddenly have a seven-year-old daughter, and such an adorable one at that.
The news spread, eliciting various reactions around the world, especially from Mijela, who instantly became a household name. Many young members of the Night Pirates spontaneously formed Mijela fan clubs.
"Mijela, she's quite cute, which is unexpected." The Red-Haired Pirates, who had been fighting the Demon Pirates for several months, all looked weathered and their auras had increased considerably.
Especially for the red-haired character, while his physical strength didn't improve much, he saw significant improvements in other areas.
Upon seeing the message, the red-haired man's eyes widened in surprise.
"That's quite a grand gesture, announcing it to the whole world without any hesitation."
This approach put Shanks to shame; he couldn't do it.
Aside from the Big Mom Pirates, people like Kaido and Roger all kept their children hidden, not wanting others to know.
Kaido remained hidden for many years until he could no longer hide.
"Didn't the Dark Emperor also hide for seven years?" Beckman chuckled softly, a cigarette dangling from his lips. "The fact that he dares to expose himself now shows that he doesn't care about outside opinions or actions at all."
As he spoke, he felt a pang of emotion. The Dark Emperor was a mystery to all the Great Pirate of their time, which also revealed his domineering Haki.
It was practically saying, "If you want to target my daughter, come at me if you dare!"
"Looks like she's a year or two younger than Uta, Shanks. When the time is right, shouldn't we bring her over too? Otherwise, she'll be too lonely by herself," Laki Lu said while eating a large roasted leg.
Uta, Shanks' daughter, was born as a child on the Red-Haired Pirates' ship and has always been protected by Shanks. Outsiders have no idea that Shanks has a child.
After they arrived at Sabaody Archipelago, they entrusted Uta to Shakky and Rayleigh to raise, since they would be undergoing rigorous training before heading to New World with an even harsher environment.
It would be too dangerous to take young Uta with me in this situation; it's simply too risky.
Then, two or three years later, when the Red-Haired Pirates left the New World, they took Uta with them and sailed around the sea with her, spending a year with Uta.
Before leaving the East Blue and returning to the New World, he entrusted the task to Shakky and Rayleigh again.
Shakky herself has no children, but she raises Uta as her daughter.
"Now Uta should understand us, right?" Yasopp wiped the gun in his hand, a bitter look on his face.
They are in a sorry state now, with nearly half of their forces lost. During the long war, many familiar members of the Red-Haired Pirates have also been killed.
The main reason is that several well-known strongmen from the New World suddenly appeared in the Demon Pirates, greatly increasing the pressure on the Red-Haired Pirates in terms of high-end combat power.
But in the end, the Red-Haired Pirates persevered, and Yasopp, while fighting powerful enemies, also took care of other battlefields, taking the opportunity to kill many strong opponents.
This battle cemented Yasopp's reputation as a world-class gunslinger, demonstrating the terrifying power of top-tier gunslingers, second only to "Death Gun" Van Kos of the Night Pirates in terms of threat.
During the war, Yasopp made the most progress. Under life-or-death crises, his Observation Haki and physical skills improved greatly, especially his combination of marksmanship and physical skills, which he learned from Kos and achieved through his own efforts.
This led to the development of a fighting technique for gunmen called Gun Fighting Technique.
As a result, Yasopp had more than ten scars on his body and suffered serious injuries several times.
What kept him going, besides the Red-Haired Pirates, was his son Usopp. His wife had died from a serious illness, and he knew his son might be watching his battles; he didn't want his child to see him sacrifice himself.
Then he would truly be an orphan.
Beckman also unleashed terrifying combat power, a world-class fighter, managing to kill one of the three powerful enemies while fighting alone.
A hideous scar now adorns his forehead and left cheek.
The cruelty of war is beyond imagination.
In this situation, it's simply impossible to take care of a young child.
The World Government's collaboration with the Demon Caesar failed without being exposed; how could they have imagined that the Red-Haired Pirates would be so tenacious?
The battle remains evenly matched, but the Red-Haired Pirates are riding high on morale, while the Demon Pirates are on the verge of collapse, and many pirates in the alliance are considering retreating.
The final battle will begin soon, and this battle will determine who becomes the Fifth Emperor.
Shanks has proven with his immense power that in the New World, there is no one more suitable to be the Fifth Emperor.
The situation is becoming clearer. With the war dragging on for so long, it's practically impossible to wipe out the Red-Haired Pirates. This is the last chance for Demon Caesar.
Some forces began investing, and more and more joined the Red-Haired Pirates, hoping to gain their favor by offering assistance during the war.
Therefore, the Red-Haired Pirates' power is actually slowly increasing.
Their comrades' sacrifice strengthened their belief in victory.
"Uta, you're living a good life now. It would be too much of a burden for you to come with us," Shanks said with some emotion. The life of sailing the seas suited them, but not Uta.
"Let's go, survive first. In the final battle, crush the Demon Pirates, victory belongs to Shanks!" Shanks declared Haki. All the members rallied, raising their bottles high and shouting excitedly.
"Victory belongs to the redhead!"
The war has continued until now, and whether it's the crew of the Red-Haired Pirates or the many affiliated forces, those who remain are all comrades with unwavering will.
With confidence in victory, they embarked on their journey alongside the red-haired man.
"Gurararara! Did Teach already have a child?" Whitebeard laughed as he drank his wine after reading this news about Mijela, then looked around at the members who were discussing it.
"You boys, when are you going to give me a grandson or granddaughter?"
"Mom, Mom, is this Teach's daughter? I wish it were a boy, then we could consider a marriage alliance." Big Mom savored the fresh desserts that had been shipped from Pagila Island.
The Big Mom Pirates, acting as intelligence brokers, maintained a close relationship with the Night Pirates and quickly obtained information.
Big Mom didn't say anything about her son marrying Teach's daughter; she knew it was impossible, Teach would never agree to it.
It might even cause the two sides to turn against each other, shattering the current favorable situation.
Moreover, none of her young children have shown any special talent, and it's difficult to judge their potential at such an age.
It would be better to hope that the Dark Emperor has a son, so that they can arrange a marriage. At least some of the daughters born in previous years are quite good-looking.
Flampe, Brulee, and the five daughters of the decaptors—if possible, we could send them all to the Night Pirates.
Of course, she didn't have high hopes; there was hope amidst her worries. After all, who could have imagined that Loki, the Giant race prince, would value his daughter Lola, who was considered ugly?
She is currently satisfied with her relationship with the Night Pirates and does not wish for it to disappear.
Mobius and Amande, Nelson and Castard, Wallace and Sinnamon had children long ago.
Mobius's child was named Elector. Like Mobius and Amande, he inherited Amande's blue hair, but his neck was not as long as that of a normal Snake-Head Tribe; it was even shorter than Mobius's.
This is a very energetic child.
Nelson's child is a daughter named Kasnina, who also inherited Castard's Roland hair.
Wallace and Sinnamon's child was named Wallor, a boy with reddish-brown hair, who did not show any signs of being of the Long Leg Tribe.
Based on the physical examination, it is inferred that, perhaps due to the influence of Big Mom's bloodline, or Wallace's hard work, the enhancement of the Super Gene Potion, or a combination of all three, Wallor's physical potential is much stronger than Wallace's.
Specific potential cannot be calculated from data; it is only an inference, but it has some basis.
This is something to be happy about. No one wants their child to be a good-for-nothing. Of course, as Wallace's child, he can't be a good-for-nothing. The Devil Fruit is enough to change his destiny.
It's perfectly normal to want your child to succeed; it's natural to hope for the best for your child.
Like Teach's son Saga, who is a dragon himself and possesses top-tier abilities, he is destined to become one of the world's strongest.
Without the Molten Steel Body Tempering from the Steel-Steel Fruit, Wallace wouldn't have reached his current level; in terms of physical talent, he wasn't particularly outstanding compared to the other crew members.
His current powerful physique was developed through continuous Molten Steel Body Tempering, which are extremely painful and severely test one's willpower.
Teach already has children, and Rediat is said to have children as well; now, children are beginning to be born to several of the main crew members.
Wallace and Mobius were both partners and rivals, and naturally they didn't want their next generation to lose. Now, the intense competition between them had begun to shift to the next generation.
Wallace a calm and composed man, and he has worked countless hours to get to where he is today. If his next generation loses, he will lose face.
Meanwhile, the children of Kos and Mozart, and Wos and Galette, are also due soon.
What many people don't know is that Mostima also has a son, the child he had with his wife, the mermaid Keri.
These children represent the future of the Night Pirates. As they grow up, the Night Pirates' strength will increase significantly.
Of course, by then everything might have settled down.
The birth of a child brings the couple closer together.
Blood ties are an important bond, and no one can ignore the connection between bloodlines. If the Big Mom Pirates need help, they will naturally not refuse.
There's nothing wrong with the Beasts, after all, their captain has a daughter, Kaido is currently either committing suicide somewhere or undergoing cruel training.
Even the World Government hasn't taken any action against the Marine Headquarters.
They could target Roger's offspring because Roger was dead. While a single child posed no threat, what about the future? What if he grew up and sought revenge against the World Government?
Having inherited Roger's bloodline, he inherently possesses the potential to grow into a powerful figure.
If it were just the child of an ordinary pirate, the World Government wouldn't care.
Teach is still alive, and the Night Pirates are at their peak. Attacking Teach's child would be pointless and would only anger the Night Pirates at this time.
The World Government lost many of its core agents to the two Dyna Stones in Bondy a, all of whom died in the explosion. The edge of Mary Geoise is still flat, with only a small part built up. The World Government now has to tighten its belt.
The Navy is rebuilding its Marine Headquarters, and in just over two months, most of it has been rebuilt, with some other areas still under construction. It's unknown how many Beli it has cost.
The sacrifice of three Marine Vice Admiral and over 20,000 marines has left the navy only able to lick its wounds and dare not offend the pirates of the New World too much.
Suppressing pirates on the Grand Line alone requires a lot of effort, and now most of the Headquarters Vice Admiral have not fully recovered from their injuries before being sent out to capture pirates.
With the Navy and the World Government suffering losses, pirates have become even more rampant. Many islands along the Grand Line have been attacked, and even Affiliated Nation have been affected, especially merchant ships on safe shipping lanes that have been plundered.
If piracy is left unchecked for a period of time, it will become rampant, and the responsibility for the losses caused to the Affiliated Nation will fall on the shoulders of the Navy and the World Government, which is something they do not want to see.
It's understandable in the short term, but if it goes on for too long, the navy will face criticism. Therefore, this situation needs to be suppressed as much as possible.
Sakazuki frequently patrolled the seas, and the pirates he encountered along the way were basically unable to escape from him; they were either destroyed or captured and imprisoned in Impel Down.
By using overwhelming strength to deter pirates and proclaim the Navy's prestige, this is precisely the time when ruthless methods are needed to suppress the rampant pirates.
These pirates were like cats Nezumi; once they received the news, they all avoided and fled, refusing to engage the Navy in direct combat.
Even at the rank of Vice Admiral, clearing the Grand Line is still a troublesome matter.
There are quite a few pirates who have mastered Haki on the Grand Line. The spread of the Six Powers has also increased the strength of pirates on the Grand Line, making them more versatile and difficult to deal with.
Meanwhile, Mijela, the daughter of the Dark Emperor, continues to be celebrated throughout the world. Possessing the Dark Emperor's aura, she is the envy of countless people.
Zoro and his two companions, who also received the news, were even more shocked. While they were surprised, they clearly remembered that Garron called Mijela" sister," which meant that the Dark Lord had a son, but judging from the situation, he did not intend to reveal it for the time being.
