Unexpected Visitor, Please Help Us
As the saying goes, "My heart is set on returning home!"
Teach and his crew did the same. On their return journey, they did not stop and the entire pirate ship maintained its top speed, arriving at Crescent Moon Island in only half the time it had taken to get there!
"Hahaha! We're home! Men, moor the boat! The captain is giving you two days off, so relax and enjoy yourselves!" Teach looked at the men whose arms were smoking from rowing and very kindly allowed them to go back and rest.
Actually, this trip wasn't tiring at all; rowing was probably the most tiring part! Giving his crew a day off was just an excuse; the main reason was that Teach wanted to rest for a couple of days!
"Deputy Captain Teach's back! You must be exhausted from the journey! You've worked so hard!" "Thanks for your hard work, Deputy Captain! We still have patrolling to go, let's grab a drink tonight!" "Deputy Captain Teach, you're back just in time, something seems to have happened with Pops!"...
One pirate after another greeted Teach, but the last pirate's words undoubtedly caught Teach's attention!
"What's wrong with Pops?" Teach asked, looking puzzled.
"It seems we have a very important guest who wants something from our Whitebeard Pirates! That's all I know!" the pirate said truthfully. He was just an ordinary member and had no right to know so much.
"Alright, I'll head over there first!" Teach said, then hurried off to Whitebeard's room. After all, he had done such a great service this time, so it wasn't unreasonable for him to ask for a small request, right? As for what he wanted, hehe...
Filled with anticipation, Teach quickened his pace, encountering many companions along the way, exchanging greetings with smiles before hurrying off.
Whitebeard's room
"Pops, I'm coming in!" Teach knocked on the door and then pushed it open. His Pops's room was large, but it was full of people. Several captains of the Whitebeard Pirates were standing on both sides of the room. Whitebeard sat in a chair, calmly looking at the person kneeling in the center of the room!
"Huh? Teach's back!" Ace's eyes lit up, and he excitedly pulled him over.
"You've been out for so long this time, you must have had some good hauls, right?" Knowing Ace as well as Teach, Ace was well aware of the guy's nature! The longer he was away, the more amazing the things or information he brought back!
"Gurarara! You must be tired from your long journey, my son!" Whitebeard instantly turned his gaze to Teach, his eyes filled with increasing satisfaction!
"Hahaha! Pops, I brought back a huge surprise from this trip! Want to guess what it is?" Teach kept everyone in suspense, which naturally piqued everyone's interest!
"I bet it's a top-quality kitchen knife!" Thatch's eyes lit up. For a chef, a fine kitchen knife would be an amazing surprise!
"No, no, I think Teach must have brought back some very precious ingredients!" Ace said, his mouth practically watering.
"If you ask me, it must be because they've found a powerful partner!" Marco's idea was reasonable; after all, as the mother figure of the entire pirate crew, he cared a lot about the crew's development!
"I bet it's some kind of magical drug that can make people grow taller!" Haruta's eyes lit up. After all, he was short, yet he had married a tall woman! Although he was very happy, only he knew the pain he was going through!
The captains were all discussing it animatedly, but each of their answers was somewhat outrageous! These bizarre answers made Teach's black lines on his forehead deepen. I think Teach is about to become a real Blackbeard!
"What are you all talking about? It's all so unreliable! Let Pops say it!" Teach complained about the captains' ideas, then looked expectantly at his Pops! His Pops should be perfectly normal! Well, I guess so...
"Oh, are they all wrong?" Whitebeard was taken aback.
"Of course! Pops, you can bet you'll be thrilled with this news!" Teach said confidently.
"Yes, it's excellent wine, isn't it?" the Whitebeard said expectantly.
"Uh, no, be bolder!"
"It's an exceptionally fine wine, one of a kind in the world, isn't it?"
"Pops, can you be any bolder? Use your imagination!!!"
Whitebeard suddenly stood up, then grabbed Teach's shoulder and said excitedly, "Could it be...?"
"Yes, that's it!" Teach was eager to see the shocked expression on his partner's face. He was already wearing a bright smile, looking forward to his Pops's next answer.
"Gurarara! Great! I never thought Teach someone as ugly as Teach would be so blind as to fall for you! Gurarara! Congratulations! Finally, I'm going to have a grandson!!!" The Whitebeard's laughter was deafening. The other captains wore expressions of disbelief, while Teach...
"Hahaha! Yes! This is a big surprise, isn't it? I found it... huh?"
A silence fell over the air, the excitement on Whitebeard's face vanished, and the expressions on the faces of the captains, except for Marco, also became indifferent.
"Hey! I recruited the Gild Tesoro and the Giant! You should at least give me a look of excitement!!!" Teach looked at the disappointed crowd, speechless with frustration...
"Oh, it's not a kitchen knife! That's great!"
"Not bad, not bad! Although it's not the best ingredients..."
"It's alright, it's alright, although it doesn't have the miracle drug I'm looking for..."
"I thought I was going to be a grandfather..."
Perfunctory, extremely perfunctory!
In contrast to these people, Marco showed a look of surprise, while the man kneeling on the ground raised his head, his astonishment evident in his eyes!
"You... Huh? Isn't this King? What are you doing on our Whitebeard Pirates' territory? What, do you want to fight?" Teach looked at the man kneeling on the ground with an unfriendly expression, and King finally revealed the purpose of his visit!
"No, no! I just arrived here and you're back! Besides, even if we knew you weren't with the Whitebeard Pirates, we wouldn't attack!" A look of pain appeared on King's face, then he gritted his teeth and kowtowed three times!
"Honorable Whitebeard, and everyone here! Please help us! Please save the Beast Pirates!" King bowed extremely low, and his words stunned everyone!
"Gurararara, so you're saying something's happened to your Beast Pirates?" Whitebeard was somewhat surprised, after all, Kaido was quite strong!
"Yes, please let me explain in detail..."
