The Sea Trembles! Whitebeard Pirates and Edward Teach! (Fourth Update, 160,000 Words)
Saint Nusjuro ignored White Dragon's ridiculous question, gave him a few perfunctory replies, and then hung up the Den Den Mushi.
Immediately afterwards, the Gorosei sent urgent notices to the other Shichibukai, instructing these "official Great Pirate" to pay close attention to the whereabouts of Whitebeard the Second.
Following Hawk Eyes and White Dragon.
Saint Nusjuro's third connection with Shichibukai is "Sea Knight" Jinbe.
Jinbe was very surprised by this "Whitebeard the Second." who had suddenly appeared. He listened carefully to the Gorosei's mission and then hung up the Den Den Mushi.
In a sea area of New World unknown to Saint Nusjuro.
Jinbe directly called the Whitebeard Pirates using a Den Den Mushi.
Since the Great Pirate Era began, the Whitebeard Pirates have planted a flag on Fish-Man Island.
Although the Whitebeard Pirates' flag could not completely prevent Fish-Man Island from being harassed or even attacked by other forces.
However, compared to before the Whitebeard Pirates "planted their flag," the security situation on Fish-Man Island has improved by a great deal.
Jinbe, a "Sea Knight" from Fish-Man Island, felt indebted to Whitebeard and therefore became very close to the Whitebeard Pirates.
At this Jinbe, Jinbe learned about "Whitebeard the Second." from the World Government and immediately sent a message to the Whitebeard Pirates.
This matter was completely beyond the control of the Gorosei.
Unaware of the situation, Saint Nusjuro continued to contact the Shichibukai as planned.
The fourth person to receive Den Den Mushi from the Gorosei via Calm Belt was Boa Hancock, the Kuja Emperor, located on Amazon Lily in the Nine Snake Island.
Hancock wasn't particularly interested in the so-called "Whitebeard the Second."
If it weren't for Grandma Nyon forcibly taking away the Den Den Mushi, she probably would have hung up on the Gorosei!
On the fifth phone call.
Saint Nusjuro hesitated for a moment, but eventually dialed the number.
No matter how outrageous Donquixote Doflamingo's actions are, he is indeed Shichibukai.
Upon receiving a call from Gorosei, Doflamingo became very interested in this "Whitebeard the Second."
"Fufufufu... The young Whitebeard who ate the [Rumble-Rumble Fruit]?"
Doflamingo, his body wrapped in bandages, looked at the wanted poster held up by Monet and let out a low laugh.
"This ocean is getting more and more interesting..."
"Understood, Saint Nusjuro. I will cooperate with the government."
After Saint Nusjuro hung up the Den Den Mushi.
Monet looked at Doflamingo with great concern.
"Young Master, you've suffered such serious injuries; you shouldn't engage in strenuous activity for the time being..."
There's another hidden meaning in Monet's words --
This suddenly appearing "Whitebeard the Second" is an enemy that even the government cannot defeat.
Even just the name itself gave Monet a very strong sense of awe.
Monet was genuinely worried that Doflamingo would actively seek out Whitebeard the Second...
Just like a few days ago, when Doflamingo took the initiative to go to Wano Country and seek out Beasts Kaido...
"Fufufufu... Monet, do I look like such a foolish person?"
Doflamingo lay in bed, a warm feeling flowing through his heart from the concern of his "family."
Even his body, which had been nearly shattered by Beasts Kaido, no longer hurt so much...
"That incident with Beasts Kaido was just an accident..."
Doflamingo paused for a moment, then slowly spoke.
"Besides, we've already successfully established contact with the Beasts Pirates..."
"Isn't this fine too? Fufufufu..."
To avoid causing Monet, the Snow Woman, excessive worry, Doflamingo forced a smile.
He admitted that he had been a bit careless before.
A few days ago.
Doflamingo set off from Dressrosa full of confidence.
He planned to steal the King of Lizards's treasure and then give it to the Beasts Pirates, thereby establishing a relationship with Beasts Kaido.
The first half of the plan went very smoothly.
The treasure ship secretly dispatched by the King of Lizards to the New World was intercepted by Doflamingo en route.
The two Zoan Ancient Zoan -type Dragon- Dragon Dragon Fruit on the ship were also stolen by Doflamingo on the spot.
The problem lies in the second half.
Doflamingo personally traveled to Wano Country, bringing with him precious gifts and heartfelt sincerity.
Beasts Kaido gladly accepted the gift offered by the Heavenly Yaksha.
Then, he casually delivered a blow to the "Doflamingo" with a spiked club.
When Doflamingo woke up again.
He's already been thrown into Udon Prison in Wano Country by the Beasts Pirates...
If it weren't for Doflamingo using his silver tongue to make countless extravagant promises and sign an extremely unequal treaty with the Beasts Pirates, they would have been in a much worse situation.
He probably won't be able to get back to Dressrosa right now; he's probably still in Udon Prison in Wano Country, doing manual labor and illegal work for the Beasts Pirates!
Even so.
Doflamingo has not yet recovered from the severe injuries he suffered.
Beasts Kaido, that monster!
Doflamingo only had a blurry image of a figure flash through his mind before he involuntarily shuddered.
Silently, yet another man struggling with addiction to methamphetamine has emerged...
"Young Master, does it hurt a lot?"
Monet, the Snow Woman, looked at Doflamingo, who was trembling all over, and her expression immediately became anxious.
"I'll go get a doctor right away!"
"No, no need, Monet."
Doflamingo quickly called a halt to the loyal snow woman.
"I'm fine."
Before Monet could respond, Doflamingo abruptly changed the subject.
"As for that Whitebeard the Second, let your men gather information on him. The family members don't need to pay attention to him."
"No! Get close! To the monster!"
In the end, Doflamingo's words still carried a subtle, yet deeply ingrained fear.
On the other side.
Saint Nusjuro just finished a phone call with Sand Crocodile.
He originally valued the Sand Crocodile very much.
After all, this guy was a monstrous young man in his youth, whose strength was on par with that of Douglas Bullet, the Devil's Descendant.
I didn't expect that I would become so decadent now...
Sand Crocodile, who couldn't even defeat White Dragon, is no longer valued by Saint Nusjuro.
If it weren't for the fact that the Sand Crocodile is still alive and well...
Saint Nusjuro wants to strip this Sand Crocodile of his status Shichibukai!
Sand Crocodile showed great interest in "Whitebeard the Second".
Saint Nusjuro was pleased to see this.
If Sand Crocodile finds Whitebeard the Second., and is then killed by Whitebeard the Second. would then take his place as Shichibukai...
That would be the best-case scenario for the government!
Just as Saint Nusjuro was about to dial the Den Den Mushi to call the last of the Shichibukai.
Suddenly, another Den Den Mushi (Den Den Mushi) rang within the Chamber of Power.
Saint Nusjuro.
The Den Den Mushi of the Gorosei, the Legal Martial God of Saint Warcury, is constantly sending out signals.
Saint Nusjuro immediately fell silent.
Saint Warcury answered the Den Den Mushi, a rapid notification sound came from the receiver.
"Saint Warcury Enies Lobby is under attack by giants!"
"Leading the group are the Captain of the Giant Warrior Pirates from a hundred years ago, Red Ogre Brogy and Blue Ogre Dorry!"
"The gatekeeper giant of Enies Lobby has betrayed us!"
"Four giants stole a warship and escaped Enies Lobby!"
Urgent announcements from judges on Enies Lobby echoed repeatedly Chamber of Power.
Upon hearing this, the Gorosei all frowned.
Unbeknownst to them, their mental connection was re-established.
'The Captain of the Giant Warrior Pirates? I remember those two were supposed to be fighting on Little Garden.'
'Who released those two giants? And why did they attack Enies Lobby!'
"Enies Lobby is one of the three major government departments! The government is completely disgracing itself!"
'Pursue! We must pursue them! Send warships to chase those four giants!'
Even if we can't kill those four giants, we can at least have the warships drive them into the Florian Triangle!
'Isn't there a Shichibukai stationed in the Florian Triangle?'
'Let the pirates deal with the pirates!'
'But the Shichibukai there is Gecko Moria... Oh well, Gecko Moria it is!'
After a brief exchange of ideas.
After offering a few words of reassurance to the judges on Enies Lobby, Saint Warcury methodically issued orders, commanding the surrounding Marine Base to dispatch warships to pursue the giants.
After things are settled with Saint Warcury.
Saint Nusjuro then called the last of the Shichibukai.
"Gecko Moria, the government has a mission for you! Four giants may enter the Florian Triangle; don't let them escape!"
"Giants? Hehehehe! I love giants the most! Those four giants are mine!!"
At a time when World Government are actively taking action.
The sea was also stirred up by the bounty on "Whitebeard the Second Edward Teach".
The New World, a certain sea area, the deck of the Moby Dick.
Edward Newgate, with his Whitebeard, was half-reclining, half-sitting on a large sofa in the center of the deck.
He was surrounded by several young and beautiful female nurses.
Each nurse was dressed in a pink nurse's uniform, with delicate yet wild leopard-print stockings tightly encasing their slender legs, giving them a feeling that was both gentle and wild.
Around the deck, members of the Whitebeard Pirates stood or sat, most of them holding food and drinks, cheering incessantly.
This is the Whitebeard Pirates ' "daily family routine".
"Edward Teach? I understand, Jinbe."
With his golden pineapple punk hairstyle, Marco Phoenix, the first division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, hung up the Den Den Mushi.
This is an urgent notification from Jinbe.
In Den Den Mushi (Den Den Mushi).
Jinbe mentioned a bounty notice that the World Government had suddenly issued today.
He also mentioned that he would send the bounty notice to the Moby Dick by fax shortly.
In Den Den Mushi, Jinbe's tone sounded a bit strange and awkward.
"Sea Knight" didn't say much before quickly hanging up the Den Den Mushi.
Not long after.
Marco received a fax from Jinbe.
It's a bounty poster for "Edward Teach"!
Marco stared intently at Edward Teach's photograph.
He was a founding member of the Whitebeard Pirates, having followed the young Whitebeard since he was very young.
Marco can be quite certain.
The "Edward Teach" on this wanted poster bears a striking resemblance to my father in his younger days!
The same blond hair, the same long face, even that almost identical Whitebeard...
"Dad, you..."
Marco turned his head and glanced at his father, who was drinking alcohol while receiving an IV drip.
I'm feeling a bit unwell.
Aside from Whitebeard himself, the Whitebeard Pirates of the Whitebeard Captain, almost all of the members are Whitebeard's sons, and almost all of them affectionately call Whitebeard "Old Man".
Over the decades, the only exception was the Second Division Commander, the man named Kozuki Oden...
Kozuki Oden was not Whitebeard's son, but rather his "younger brother"...
This does not affect Marco's and others' status as "sons".
But now.
Marco turned his head and stared blankly at the bounty poster in his hand.
It seems a man more suited to be Whitebeard's son has appeared...
"Marco, why don't you come in for a drink?"
Whitebeard Pirates Vista, walked over with a Flower Sword. He put his arm around Marco's shoulder and glanced sideways at the newspaper in the latter's hand.
"Huh? Why are you suddenly interested in Dad's bounty posters from when he was young?"
"You're really drunk, Vista!"
Marco shrugged and gently nudged the slightly tipsy Vista aside.
"I don't even remember what my dad looked like when he was young!"
"This isn't my dad, it's a rookie pirate named Edward Teach!"
"Edward Teach?"
Vista let out a burp, his eyes widening in surprise.
"Teach!?"
The conversation between the two captains went completely unnoticed by anyone else.
The members of the Whitebeard Pirates were thoroughly enjoying the banquet.
Marco, holding the bounty poster, strode towards Whitebeard.
"Dad!"
"Gurarara, Marco..."
When Whitebeard saw Marco walk in, he first smiled, then nervously reached out to protect the barrel of sake in Marco's hand, and said with a look of vigilance.
"I didn't steal your drink this time; Jozu just offered me it!"
Normally, Marco would definitely have said a few more words to Whitebeard, telling him to take care of his health and not drink too much alcohol.
But right now, Marco isn't thinking about that.
He held up the bounty poster to Whitebeard, asking with a mix of grievance and humility.
"Dad, do you know 'Edward Teach'?"
"Huh? Who?"
Whitebeard heard his own surname.
He looked up at the bounty poster held high by Marco, and saw his own face from when he was young.
"Marco, what are you doing with my bounty poster?"
1.9 billion Beli?
"Those bastards in the Navy actually lowered my bounty!?"
Whitebeard was initially puzzled, then became furious.
Marco looked at Whitebeard helplessly.
"Dad, this isn't your bounty poster, it's a bounty poster for 'Whitebeard the Second.'!"
"Whitebeard the Second?"
Whitebeard was taken aback. He raised his hand, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the wanted poster again.
After reading the bounty poster, the Whitebeard frowned, his lips turned down, and his face was filled with a sense of absurdity and speechlessness.
Who is this?
"Whitebeard the Second, Edward Teach!"
Marco sighed and repeated the name on the bounty poster.
After saying this, he took a few steps closer to the Whitebeard and lowered his voice.
"Dad, do you remember that person? Buckingham Stussy ...Ms."
The moment the name Buckingham Stussy came out of Marco's mouth.
Whitebeard fell silent instantly.
He did indeed have a "past" with Buckingham Stussy.
That was a story from when they were all members of the Rocks Pirates...
"Stussy ..."
Whitebeard looked at the blond kid on the wanted poster who looked almost exactly like him in his youth and called out his name.
"Edward Teach... Teach!!"
A corner of the deck of the Moby Dick.
Marshall D. Teach, who was engrossed in eating cherry pie, looked up blankly.
It sounds like his dad is calling him?
What happened?
