Are the Residents of Sphinx Island Vampires?
The walrus Elwan grabbed Whitey Bay and ran away in a frenzy!
We can't beat them! We simply can't beat them!
These squad leaders, who rose through the ranks from subordinate captains, were ultimately far inferior to the Three Division Commanders.
Now that Andre and Karma, who have been together for over thirty years, are dead, Elwan doesn't want to see Whitey Bay, the eldest sister, die at Edward Weevil's hands as well.
He no longer cared about the honor of the Whitebeard Pirates; all he wanted was to rescue Whitey Bay and live together!
When the Decalvan Brothers saw Elwan running away with Whitey Bay, they turned and ran without saying a word.
Anyone who doesn't run away is an idiot!
Of the six squad leaders who remained, two died and the other four escaped.
The elite pirates of the Whitebeard Pirates instantly lost their morale and fled in disarray.
Edward Weevil originally wanted to continue hunting down Elwan and Whitey Bay, but Miss Bakkin stopped this powerful but foolish son.
"Stop! Stop! Stop!"
"If you chase after them, who will protect me!"
Miss Bakkin shouted, her goal always being the treasure and various legacies left by Whitebeard.
Killing was not the goal.
Just get rid of them!
"Oh, okay~"
Whitebeard II's scarlet eyes disappeared in an instant following Miss Ba Jin's voice, and returned to his honest appearance.
"We're rich! We're rich!"
Miss Bakkin never expected to take over Sphinx Island so easily; she and her son really hit the jackpot.
It just so happened that it coincided with the time when Fire Fist Ace and Marco the Phoenix were leaving.
It seems that the goddess of fortune is looking out for them.
This would allow them to successfully reclaim Whitebeard 'Newgate legacy.
Miss Bakkin immediately took Edward Weevil to plunder this peaceful island that had been under Whitebeard's protection for decades.
This island is still the Whitebeard Pirates' headquarters, so it must have a lot of money.
Miss Bakkin became more and more excited as she thought about it.
···
On the other side.
The Decalvan Brothers, fleeing in a frenzy, headed straight for the small harbor on the other side of the island.
"Brother, I no longer want to stay with the Whitebeard Pirates."
"Brother, me too!"
The two brothers exchanged a glance and made a decision as if by unspoken agreement.
Their main base has been breached by a Shichibukai; it's utterly shameful.
Furthermore, they didn't have a high opinion of Fire Fist Ace as the new captain.
What a hothead!
Rather than staying in this pseudo- Four Emperors pirate crew in such a stifling way, I'd rather become a free pirate captain again.
Or join a more powerful Cross Guild!
Without hesitation, the two brothers stole a fishing boat from a Sphinx Island resident and went out to sea.
Suddenly, they looked up at the sky in horror, and two airships appeared in their pupils.
···
Wang Shi Exile Emperor, he watched the billowing smoke rise from Sphinx Island.
There's no reason for it.
"How could the fight be so intense?"
"Fire Fist Ace and Marco the Phoenix have no reason to allow Edward Weevil to act so recklessly."
Wang Shi felt something was off, but their main purpose this time was to capture Weevil. What happened at the Whitebeard Pirates' headquarters was none of Wang Shi's business.
Even if Ace and Marco manage to take Edward Weevil away, he can still snatch Edward Weevil back.
"Your Majesty, there are two rather auspicious auras below."
"It looks like the Decalvan Brothers!"
"I heard that they were promoted from captains of the Whitebeard Pirates to division commanders."
"Why are there only the two of them now? It looks like they're trying to escape."
Aramaki, Van Augur, Laffitte, and the others stood on the railing, looking down at the two pirates on the fishing boat below.
"Arrest them!"
"Things seem to be getting interesting."
At Wang Shi's command, Aramaki immediately flew down and forcibly dragged the two newly appointed squad leaders back up.
The two of them were completely powerless to resist!
After all, only by combining their strength can the two brothers even manage to exchange blows with the elite Vice Admiral Dalmatian!
Soon, Wang Shi learned about the situation on Sphinx Island from the Decalvan Brothers.
"Fire Fist Ace and the others have already gone to Wano Country?"
"Fire Fist Ace can't even protect his own territory, yet he has time to go and join the fun in Wano Country?"
"This is fucking hilarious."
"Karma and Andre, the two newly appointed division commanders, were just killed by Weevil."
"What a piece of trash!"
The Baron of the Goa Empire immediately began to discuss it animatedly, while the Decalvan Brothers lowered their heads in shame.
These subordinate captains didn't actually want to be squad leaders; they were well aware of their own limitations.
"I wonder what kind of expression Fire Fist Ace would have if he knew his base was destroyed."
"This son of the Pirate King is still too young!"
Wang Shi glanced at the Decalvan Brothers and felt that these two guys could also become Blackbeard's subordinates.
Wang Shi directly allowed the Seven-Star Demon Spirit to influence and control them.
The two airships continued flying towards the central town of Sphinx Island.
···
Elwan, who escaped with Whitey Bay, quickly gathered some of the remaining members.
They had no time to worry about the residents of Sphinx Island. They quickly found a few merchant ships and fishing boats and fled to find Ace and Marco.
The thought of Andre dying to save her plunged Whitey Bay into deep guilt.
Moreover, she promised Ace that she would protect Sphinx Island.
As a result, they were utterly defeated and suffered heavy casualties by a Shichibukai.
She's let her Pops down! She's let everyone down!
"Cheer up, Whitey Bay! Once we reunite with Ace and the others, we'll go back and get revenge on Edward Weevil!"
Elwan's eyes were filled with anger; he also hated his own weakness.
Meanwhile, his dissatisfaction with Ace grew daily.
They haven't even managed to protect the hometown Pops Whitebeard cherished most, yet they're supposed to help Kozuki Oden protect Wano Country.
What kind of logic is this!
Kozuki Oden disregarded his Pops's feelings and left the Whitebeard Pirates to join the Roger Pirates.
Even after the Roger Pirates disbanded, Kozuki Oden didn't return to the Whitebeard Pirates for five years.
What right does this bastard have to be treated so well by the Whitebeard Pirates!
"Call them quickly and tell Ace and Marco to come back!"
"We must retake Sphinx Island as soon as possible!"
"We can't let Sphinx Island be destroyed by Edward Weevil!"
Whitey Bay commanded loudly, a renewed sense of obsession emerging from her guilty expression.
She deeply regrets delegating power to Ace and Marco to Wano Country, which has now led to the fall of Sphinx Island!
She vowed that once she reclaimed Sphinx Island, she would never leave and would always protect her Pops's homeland.
As for the position of captain of the first division, she didn't want to be it anymore.
She didn't have the ability, nor did she want to continue being Ace's babysitter.
If she had to choose between the Whitebeard Pirates and Sphinx Island, she would choose Sphinx Island!
They are currently on the Sphinx Island.
Miss Bakkin's eyes were red; she couldn't believe that the island's treasure and Belly were so scarce.
Is this still the Whitebeard Pirates' headquarters?
Is this still the peaceful island that Whitebeard protected for decades?
Even with just a little development, they could accumulate a considerable amount of money over several decades.
How could it be so little money?
Are all the inhabitants of Sphinx Island vampires, spending Whitebeard's money all this time?
