Boom!
The frozen sea was torn apart.
The massive Groseade, like a meteorite piercing through the sky, suddenly stopped a hundred meters away from the Whitebeard Pirates ' Moby Dick.
The scattering of ice crystals and fragments, like a torrential rain, enveloped the entire sea area.
The people who had been lost in thought couldn't help but shudder and suddenly snapped back to reality.
They were all utterly shocked as they looked at the enormous creature before them.
In particular, the familiar figure standing at the bow of the ship was even more unbelievable to them.
"Captain Marco, look at that guy, it's Marine Admiral Aokiji! How did he end up on War Demon Bai Yu's ship?"
A gasp of surprise rang out first.
However, no one present could look away for even a second after hearing these words.
After all, the sheer awe they felt when their gaze swept past the crowd and they saw those figures was no less than that of Marine Admiral Aokiji.
"My God, that's the World Destroyer Byrnndi World! How did he end up on War Demon Bai Yu's ship...?"
"Isn't that the new Admiral Fujitora Issho? What's he doing here!"
"Who are those? It looks like Cat Viper and Inuarashi. What are they doing here again?"
"Oh my god, guess who I saw? Anyone have time to slap me a couple of times? I think I saw Dark King Rayleigh, the former Pirate King Roger's right-hand man!"
"..."
The scene erupted into chaos.
As the figures appeared one after another on the deck, everyone's expression changed repeatedly.
In particular, they saw Rayleigh, who they once regarded as their greatest rival and came from the ship of the Pirate King Roger.
In their eyes, it was a bolt from the blue.
If I had to say that I just saw Aokiji and Fujitora Issho...
They might also wonder if Bai Yu has gone back to the Marine Headquarters to become Admiral.
However, now even the former vice-captain of the Pirate King Roger has appeared.
This is enough to prove that Bai Yu is still a pirate.
However, he accomplished something that the Whitebeard Pirates could not do in the past.
They've brought Dark King Rayleigh the Underworld, onto their ship.
The Whitebeard, sitting upright in his chair, also frowned slightly. His gaze swept across the Groseade, finally settling on a figure behind Rayleigh, and a rare look of shock appeared on his face.
However, Whitebeard quickly suppressed this slight shock.
However, Marco still managed to spot it.
In Marco's eyes, their Pops was hailed as the strongest being of his era.
Something that could cause him such great alarm.
He's probably not a simple person.
" Pops, who is that woman?"
Marco couldn't help but ask.
These words immediately put everyone on edge.
Standing behind Rayleigh, Shakky, with a cigarette dangling from her lips, exhaled a puff of smoke and said.
" Whitebeard, you seem to be in pretty good spirits. No wonder you said you'd attack the Big Mom Pirates. Looks like you're not going to die anytime soon."
"This time, I'm just following Rayleigh around and catching up with you. You don't need to take it to heart; just pretend I don't exist."
These words caused the already tense atmosphere in the room to tighten even further, like a string about to snap.
Hearing these words, spoken so casually and deliberately, gave one the feeling that he was trying to cover something up.
He was able to address Whitebeard by his name directly, and even insisted that he was still alive.
Looking out over the vast ocean, I doubt many people would dare to say such a thing to someone's face.
"Haha, Shakky, it would have been better if you hadn't spoken up. Now that you've opened your mouth, I'm afraid Whitebeard won't hold back anymore."
Rayleigh took a swig of his drink and laughed loudly.
However, he soon discovered that the bottle in his hand was empty.
After pouring the wine two or three more times and finding that there wasn't a drop left, he went straight to Bai Yu's side, took the bottle that Bai Yu had just taken out, and started drinking by himself.
Seeing this, Bai Yu's facial muscles twitched.
Many of the people on the ship, while not exactly heavy drinkers, were still people who enjoyed alcohol.
However, Rayleigh's drinking prowess is in no way inferior to his own.
Bai Yu was starting to regret agreeing to Rayleigh's offer too quickly.
At this rate, it'll be too difficult to ensure I can drink to my heart's content from now on.
The sheer reluctance on their faces was so palpable that even the Whitebeard Pirates couldn't help but twitch their facial muscles.
Many people almost couldn't resist stepping out from the crowd to shout at them.
You don't want Dark King Rayleigh, I want him! All you can drink!
However, facing this legendary right-hand man of the Pirate King, and War Demon Bai Yu hailed as the Pirate Emperor of the new era, is another challenge.
They don't have the guts to act recklessly.
"Hmph, you brat, you're not feeling sorry for those bars, are you? If Rayleigh had agreed to join the crew back then, I'd give him not just the bars, but half of the Whitebeard Pirates."
Whitebeard snorted coldly and stood up, leaning on his Murakumogiri.
His gaze remained fixed on Shakky, and a trace of reminiscence flashed across his withered face.
"However, what I didn't expect was that you actually managed to get Black Widow Shakky on board."
"Let me think, how long has it been since we last met? Forty-three years, or forty-five? I can hardly remember."
"But I clearly remember the last time I met you, on Rocks ' ship. As fellow crew members, you were the only one without any ambition!"
Rocks ' crew?
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
Everyone's pupils contracted sharply, and they gasped in shock.
The look in Shakky's eyes was filled with shock.
When Dark King Rayleigh, the right-hand man of the Pirate King, joined their crew, they were indeed shocked.
However, they were very familiar with this old rival who had fought against the Whitebeard Pirates for a long time.
What shocked and disbelieved them the most was that even Whitebeard, who had only mentioned a few times, had joined Bai Yu's crew as a fellow member of the Rocks Pirates.
The impact of such a person's appearance was no less than the shock of Charlotte Linlin and Kaido of the Beasts joining the Blood Flag Pirates, both of whom were also Four Emperors.
Byrnndi World, once a headache for the world and known as the World Destroyer.
Newly Marine Admiral Fujitora Issho.
Admiral Aokiji, one of the three current main combat forces of the Navy.
Dark King Rayleigh, the former right-hand man of the Pirate King.
The two kings of the Mink Tribe Cat Viper and Duke Inuarashi.
Now, another figure with an even more astonishing background has emerged: Black Widow Shakky, a member of the Rocks Pirates who was a contemporary of Whitebeard.
These names, once they landed on everyone's minds, almost made a shocking thought pop into their heads.
Is this kind of lineup considered a chaotic mess?
