Trouble!
"This is troublesome!"
At this moment, the Red-Hair also stepped forward a few paces.
Looking at Moke in front of him, he was filled with emotion. "When I first saw your bounty poster, I was amazed that another remarkable newcomer had emerged on this vast sea."
But in less than half a year, you shocked me time and time again. You even quickly became one of the Four Emperors, on par with me.
At that moment, I understood.
Sooner or later, there will be a battle between us. And I'm waiting for that day.
Sometimes I wonder, why haven't you come yet?
But seeing you today, I feel like things have happened a little too fast. Only three years have passed, and you already have the confidence to defeat me... and you truly do have that ability."
Upon hearing this, Moke chuckled, "You're Red-Hair... You carved out your own territory amidst the chaos of the Three Emperors, changing the entire landscape of the New World. From one of the Three Emperors to the Four Emperors... Who dares to underestimate you?"
Or rather, those who dared to underestimate you are already dead by your sword!
Upon hearing this, the Red-Hair man chuckled softly.
But the seriousness in his eyes deepened. "I wonder what brings you here this time? To start a war?"
Moke: "I've already been to Whitebeard's place."
Upon hearing this, the Red-Hair's pupils constricted sharply, but he quickly regained his composure.
Like him, Whitebeard and Moke will inevitably clash sooner or later. And the first one will definitely be him.
He has always believed this.
To everyone's surprise, the first person Moke sought out was Whitebeard. Most importantly, the fact that Moke had contacted Whitebeard meant that a decision had already been made between Whitebeard.
The fact that he was able to find it already foreshadows the ending.
Although he had long anticipated that the elderly Whitebeard was probably no match for Moke, he was still incredibly shocked to hear it.
That's Whitebeard!
He was once the number one person in the world.
"Call..."
Red-Hair a deep breath and calmed himself down.
He then turned to look at Ben Beckman, Yasopp, and his companions including Lucky Roux, Hongo, Bendick Snake, Benk Bingge, Monster (the monkey), and Limejuice.
He and his companions went through thick and thin.
What kind of difficulties haven't I encountered?
What kind of battle haven't I experienced?
They still made it through step by step... But today...
Red-Hair hesitated.
Because the difference in strength between the two sides is too great.
That's right, Ben Beckman has the strength of Emperor Level player.
Even if he's the weakest among the Emperor Level is still Emperor Level... He wouldn't back down from Marine Admiral in the slightest.
However, the opposing force— Enel, Shiryu, Shiryu, King, Charlotte Katakuri, Weevil— are slightly weaker than Emperor Level fighters. Yet, wouldn't any of them be able to fight a Marine Admiral to a standstill?
Gizzas Jesus Burgess, Jack the Drought, and the other two were slightly behind.
However, it won't be easy for the Admiral to defeat them.
There's also Charlotte Snack, whose defense is invincible.
Yasopp, Lucky Roux, Hongo, Bendick Snake, Benk Bingge, Monster (the Monkey), and Limejuice are all quite strong.
They are all captains or Sweet Commander Level.
He's alright against Gizzas Jesus Burgess and "Drought" Jack.
He's still a bit lacking compared to Ikki, Enel, Shiryu, King, Charlotte Katakuri, Weevil.
"Call..."
Red-Hair took another deep breath, but unlike before, he had already made up his mind.
He looked at Moke: "Let's have a duel between captains!"
"A duel between captains?"
Moke was slightly surprised, but also thought it was normal. After all, he had a huge advantage. Putting aside the question of who was stronger between him and Red-Hair.
At least one thing is clear to both sides.
That is, before the two of them determine a winner, all of Red-Hair Shanks' crew members, except for Ben Beckman, have probably already died at the hands of Moke's group.
Rather than doing so, it would be better to abide by the rules of the open sea.
Let's have a duel between captains.
The winner takes everything from the loser, including the other team's crew.
Of course, the rules are...
If the other crew members are unwilling, then you must let them go and allow them to leave. Of course, these crew members must retire from this life and cannot join any other pirate crew.
And as the captain.
There are only three choices: die, be imprisoned, or join the other side's pirate crew.
"Captain!"
Yasopp, Lucky Roux, Hongo, Bendick Snake, Benk Bingge, Monster (the monkey), and Limejuice stepped forward almost simultaneously.
As a member of the Red-Haired Pirates.
They were prepared to die for the pirate crew.
The Red-Hair didn't speak, but instead turned and glanced at Ben Beckman.
Ben Beckman trembled upon seeing this.
He understood Red-Hair's feelings, but that only made it harder for him to remain calm. However, as the first mate, he had to stay composed at this moment.
He tried to calm himself down, and then stood in front of Yasopp, Lucky Roux, Hongo, Bendick Snake, Benk Bingge, Monster (the monkey), and Limejuice.
Yasopp: "???" What do you mean?
Lachi Rue: "!!!" What are you doing stopping us?
Hongo: "..."
Bendick Snake: "..."
Benk Bingge, Monster (monkey): "..."
Limejuice: "..."
The group was quite puzzled.
Ben Beckman, his face tense, said in a deep voice, "What are you doing? This is the captain's decision... As crew members, the first thing we must do is obey the orders of our crew."
"Ben Beckman!!!"
Yasopp, Lucky Roux, Hongo, Bendick Snake, Benk Bingge, Monster (the monkey), and Limejuice were greatly shocked. At this moment, they understood what Ben Beckman meant.
Now I understand Red-Hair' plans even better.
They immediately all looked at the Red-Hair, their eyes filled with resentment.
He said in a trembling voice, "Captain!"
Red-Hair waved to Yasopp, Lucky Roux, Hongo, Bendick Snake, Benk Bingge, Monster (the monkey), and Limejuice, then said to Ben Beckman, "Take care of them..."
Ben Beckman nodded. "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I won't let them cause trouble..."
Like Red-Hair, although he didn't have much contact with Moke, he had a certain understanding of Moke.
That means you should follow the rules.
Then he will definitely behave according to the rules.
But if you break the rules, he will absolutely make you kneel down and beg him to follow them.
The conversation between Red-Hair and Ben Beckman was about this point. Red-Hair wanted Ben Beckman to keep Yasopp, Lucky Roux, Hongo, Bendick Snake, Benk Punch, Monster (the monkey), and Limejuice in check, even if it meant his own death in the fight.
We must also follow the rules.
He either Moke Pirates or retires. He absolutely cannot attack the Moke Pirates because of him.
This will only make Moke want to kill...
