"Hello everyone, could you please give me some face?"

Red-Haired Shanks, spoke with a smile.

These words instantly confirmed the long-buried memories of Marco and the others.

Looking at the confident Red-Haired Shanks, Marco couldn't help but smile wryly.

Couldn't you have considered the context when you said that?

However, at this moment, facing the seventy-four demons Charlotte Linlin spoke of, and the CP0's hidden trump card.

And there's the unfathomable War Demon Bai Yu, Marco and the others are really eager to know.

Is the prestige of these Four Emperors truly sufficient?

"Everyone, I know we shouldn't get involved in this kind of thing, but to prevent the World Government and the Five Elders from reaping the benefits and defeating us pirates one by one, I, Shanks, cannot stand idly by."

Red-Haired Shanks grabbed Gryphon at his waist with his right hand and continued to speak with a smile.

"Of course, if you think I wasn't sincere, I wouldn't have invited Hawk-Eye and Gaban the Elder."

"If any of you want to fight, I can be your opponent."

The voice, though not loud, carried an air of boundless pride at that moment.

Charlotte Linlin snapped back to reality, her expression twisted as the Roar.

" Red-Haired brat, shut up! If we weren't after that War Demon Bai Yu, we would have killed you, you hypocrite, long ago."

"What? Hawk-Eye? What Gaban? You think bringing two pieces of trash will make us give you face?"

"I have seventy-four demons here. You'd better think twice before wasting your breath on us."

"Jin, ignore them, quickly kill War Demon Bai Yu! Kaido definitely didn't take the Devil's Medicine."

"Otherwise, the one who dies must be this wretched brat?"

The roar of voices quickly drowned out Red-Haired Shanks's words.

The seventy-four demons, their blood-red eyes suddenly turned and landed on Red-Haired Shanks.

Perhaps, they really didn't have much confidence when facing Bai Yu.

However, this doesn't mean that a Four Emperors who is only on par with Charlotte Linlin can command their respect.

After taking the Devil's Medicine, a bloodthirsty and murderous aura burst forth from his body like Dotō wave.

These formed towering pillars of malevolent energy that forcefully pierced through the leaden clouds that had been pressing down on the sky.

The overwhelming force that surged forth was as vast as the ocean.

Looking at the seventy-four demons whose aura had completely changed in an instant.

Everyone was stunned.

Could it be that they really are picking on the weak?

Compared to War Demon Bai Yu, "Red Hair Pirates all become weak?

Just moments before, Red-Haired Shanks, the first thing he did upon appearing was greet everyone with "Greetings, everyone, give me some face."

That was a resounding slap in the face, wasn't it?

So, does this so-called demon act like this when facing Bai Yu?

At least, even Red-Haired Shanks didn't see it just now.

"Heh, Red-Haired, I didn't expect you to even bring Gaban here."

An old man's loud laughter suddenly rang out.

A huge black shadow fell from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground with a loud thud.

Amidst the swirling sand and dust, Fujitora Issho, leaning on his Cane Sword, was the first to come into view.

At the same time, an elderly man with silver hair, who was drinking alcohol, appeared before everyone.

Upon seeing this completely unkempt figure, everyone was taken aback.

Marco was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but say something.

" Pops, that guy Rayleigh really got on Bai Yu's ship."

This is the old man who, during his duel with the Roger Pirates, blocked his deadly attack with a single finger and shamelessly declared, "Young man, I've always spoken very seriously."

Marco's impression of Rayleigh was even deeper than Gaban's.

It can be said that Marco's current strength is only half due to the "encouragement" he received from Rayleigh during that battle.

It was for this reason that Marco refused to believe that Rayleigh had really stayed on Bai Yu's ship.

"Heh, the first time I saw Rayleigh on his ship, I knew this guy would ultimately choose to stay."

The Whitebeard chuckled dryly.

" Red-Haired brat, look at Bai Yu's ship lineup, isn't it much stronger than yours?"

" World, Rayleigh, current Marine Admiral Aokiji, newly Marine Admiral Fujitora Issho, the Black Widow Shakky who was also the captain of the Rocks Pirates' Spiderweb Special Attack Squad —they have far more influence than you."

"If you still want to be this peacemaker, it seems a bit pathetic for a Gaban to play the peacemaker."

Everyone present was completely dumbfounded as they watched the string of names being called out.

Especially that last sentence, even Charlotte Linlin's expression changed.

" Shakky, what brings you here? Weren't you dead?"

As members of the Rocks Pirates, and among the few female pirates, Charlotte Linlin and Shakky had some interactions.

Although, this relationship can hardly be described as good.

However, those who came from the Rocks Pirates have always been regarded as having the qualifications to be the strongest in this sea.

Able to stand alone on the high seas, they will never yield to anyone.

Neither Whitebeard nor Kaido of the Beasts were exceptions.

However, Shakky, who had been missing for decades and was once her equal on the Rocks ship, has suddenly reappeared and become Bai Yu's crew member.

Does this mean Bai Yu is stronger than her?

Otherwise, why would Shakky willingly become a crew member?

However, this thought had only just flashed through Charlotte Linlin's mind.

An unexpected sound rang out.

" Pops, who's that old guy? He's the old man standing on the mast!"

Ace suddenly spoke up.

"It feels like Bai Yu's ship is turning into a retirement home, full of old men."

Marco's sarcastic remarks instantly caught his attention.

As a veteran of the Whitebeard Pirates, Marco followed Ace's gaze, and the first figure that caught his eye caused Marco's pupils to contract sharply, his eyes nearly bursting out of their sockets.

Without thinking twice, he quickly gave Ace a thumbs-up.

" Ace, you're awesome. If this guy were willing to join, I'd like to open a retirement home too."

"However, Ace, I advise you to show your face less for the next three to five years, otherwise, when this guy starts killing, even your Pops will have a hard time saving you."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, this old guy's name is Red Count Field. He's someone who's on par with our Whitebeard Pirates and the Roger Pirates."

"Damn it, how come all these monsters are appearing on Bai Yu's ship? I want to open one of these nursing homes too!"

Ace was stunned, and his heart sank.

I may not have seen a pig run, but I've at least eaten pork.

Ace was unfamiliar with the Red Count Field.

But after hearing Marco's long and detailed introduction, shouldn't you just say "awesome"?

One person can challenge two major pirate crews.

Looking at the new era, perhaps only his sworn War Demon Bai Yu, could have accomplished this?

If they really offended this old guy, Ace believed Marco was right.

I'm afraid even my Pops won't be able to save himself.

This monster lineup is like an old people's home.

I want to open one too!
