"I've heard that. Even the Navy can't do anything about him. I think he's the captain of the Sacred Pirates."

Nami raised her slender hand and answered quickly.

"Heh, he's not the captain. Strictly speaking, he's just someone else's subordinate, because there's someone above Thunder God who killed Marco the Phoenix." Crocus squinted, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

"Is your God?" Nami answered again.

"Judging from your appearance, you must have just entered the Grand Line, yet you already know all this?" Crocus looked surprised.

"Of course, as a navigator, one must not only anticipate the weather at sea, but also be aware of all sorts of information."

Nami puffed out her chest, looking quite proud.

"In that case, you should know how terrifying this man is. Perhaps Whitebeard really might be defeated by this man this time, and Fire Fist Ace will surely die."

After his initial surprise, Crocus delivered the final result without hesitation.

"What? Ace so strong, how could he possibly be defeated?"

Luffy nearby, objected immediately.

As for Zoro, he simply frowned, while Sanji smoked his cigarette, remaining silent.

Usopp, on the other hand, was so frightened that he kept swallowing hard.

Seeing Luffy's thick neck and red face, Crocus shook his head. "A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger," he thought, "This guy in front of me is probably the only one who's fearless!"

"Uncle, could you tell me more about the Whitebeard Pirates and the Sacred Pirates?"

As the navigator of the pirate crew, Nami must understand the situation on the high seas, even if the current situation is still far away for them, it's never wrong to know more.

Zoro and Sanji also moved closer, as did Usopp.

Only Luffy was carefree; after wandering around the tiny island, he actually lay down on the ground and fell asleep.

"I'm bored anyway, so I'll chat with you guys to pass the time!"

Lying on the recliner, Crocus smiled nonchalantly. For some reason, he found the group of people somewhat agreeable.

Time slipped by quietly.

In Crocus's memories, super-powerful figures such as the Whitebeard Pirates, the Sacred Pirates, the World's Strongest Man, God Ye Chen, the Marco the Phoenix, and the Thunder God Enel began to enter the minds of several rookie pirates ahead of time.

The more they listened, the more serious it became. Slowly, Zoro gripped his weapon tightly, Sanji kept smoking, and Nami and Usopp didn't utter a word.

Hearing the stories of these important figures, Nami and the others felt inexplicably inferior, only able to look up to them from afar.

Meanwhile, on a medium-sized island in the desert Cobra Kingdom of Alabasta, near the Grand Line.

The country is bustling with activity; it is a prosperous nation. People come and go on the streets. Most importantly, this kingdom is one of the world's Affiliated Nation.

As Affiliated Nation of the world, its territory is home to the World Government's Army, whose rank, according to naval standards, is that of an Army Rear Admiral.

Originally, this kingdom was prosperous and harmonious, but recently, the balance was broken.

"Thief Haha, they really took the bait. Even knowing it's a trap, these guys will still jump in."

In a tavern, four men sat on chairs. The man in the lead, who was eating meat in large bites, took a big gulp of strong liquor and laughed triumphantly.

"However, the Second Division Commander Whitebeard's army is indeed quite capable; he actually chased us through several kingdoms."

Beside him, Lafitte adjusted his hat, picked up his coffee, and took a sip.

"I never expected to encounter something so exciting so soon after joining."

Beside Lafitte stood a very tall man with a purple tattoo from his forehead to the corner of his eye, and curly gray hair that made him look terminally ill. A strange horse followed beside him.

Doc Q was a subordinate Blackbeard recruited while hiding from Fire Fist Ace.

"After all, Fire Fist Ace can't die now, at least not at our hands. He still has a use!"

Van Augur wiped his sniper rifle without looking up, a slight, sinister smile appearing on his cold, arrogant face.

"Zeihaha, the bait has been cast, and two big fish have taken the bait. Now all we have to do is wait."

He burst into laughter and took a Blackbeard of strong liquor.

"Teach."

Suddenly, an angry voice rang out in the tavern, and the intense flames slowly coalesced into a figure.

He had short black hair, freckles on his cheeks, a bare upper body, and the Whitebeard Pirates tattoo on his back.

This man was none other than Fire Fist Ace, the Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Hey, isn't this my captain? You've been chasing me for so long, can you finally leave me alone?"

Ace's appearance seemed to be exactly what Blackbeard had expected, with nothing surprising about it.

"Is this the Second Division Commander Whitebeard's army?"

The newly joined Doc Q has never faced Ace directly before, and at this moment, looking at Ace, he doesn't feel any threat.

"You mustn't look at him, you might die if you're not careful!"

Beside him, Lafitte chuckled; unlike Doc Q, he didn't dare look the man in front of him in the eye.

"Teach, you're not getting away this time."

With a grim face, terrifying heat radiated directly, instantly turning the entire tavern into liquid, with streaks of crimson flames slowly burning.

With his right fist clenched tightly and without hesitation, the boiling flames caused ripples in the air as a massive fiery fist violently slammed towards Blackbeard and his crew.

"That's terrifying."

At this moment, Doc Q dared not look anymore. He flipped over, climbed onto his horse, and disappeared from the spot with Blackbeard and the others.

In an instant, flames swept through, the entire tavern vanished, and a huge chasm was formed on the street, slowly burning under intense heat.

Ace leaped into the air like a god of fire, standing in mid-air, looking at Blackbeard and the others on the street with murderous intent on his face.

"Captain, should we continue retreating or..."

Lafitte flicked his red cane, his eerie red lips uttering a question.

"Now is not the time; there's no need for a protracted fight."

Blackbeard grinned sinisterly, but suppressed his urge to attack.

"Wow, the Sacred Pirates are way too slow!"

On one side, Van Augur, carrying a sniper rifle, was somewhat impatient. Anyone who had been chased down by several kingdoms and couldn't really fight back would feel incredibly frustrated.

Just then, Ace in the air did not give up his attack. He spread his arms, his ten fingers turning red, and fired a dense barrage of fire bullets, like bullets, towards Blackbeard and the others.

"What a hassle."

While dodging and retreating, Van Augur didn't even look, raised his hand and fired a shot. A black bullet, with a whooshing sound, went straight for Ace's head.

Transforming into flames, Ace became an elemental and fell from the sky, his hands spinning into burning pillars of fire that engulfed the group.

"As expected of Logia."

A massive firestorm swept across, creating a sea of fire. Van Augur and the others stood up somewhat disheveled, glancing at the man engulfed in flames, and pursed their lips.

"Boom! Crack! Crack!"

Without warning, the entire sky changed color, and more than a dozen bolts of lightning fell indiscriminately, their blinding light making one's hair stand on end.

Having narrowly dodged the lightning, both Blackbeard and Ace looked up at the sky.

"They've arrived."

Blackbeard laughed heartily as the important figure appeared, and his plan officially began.
