One Piece: Fist of the World.

Chapter 267 Undercurrents, Invitation from the New Navy

New World, aboard Moby-Dick.

"You're back, Ace."

Whitebeard sat in his seat and looked at Ace who looked a little depressed.

As a member of the second team, Blackbeard Teach violated the iron rules of the ship and hurt his family. As the captain, Ace always felt that it was his fault and wanted to capture Teach.

In fact, although Whitebeard was very angry about Teach's behavior, he had no intention of starting a war.

It’s nothing, he’s already old!

He could feel his life slipping away.

Birth, aging, sickness and death are part of human nature, and Whitebeard has seen through this.

He just couldn't let go of his sons.

Fortunately, in the last moments of his life, he met Ace.

His innate talent can support his growth and lead his brothers and sisters in the Whitebeard Pirates to continue moving forward.

Therefore, when Ace proposed to track down Teach, Whitebeard did not stop him.

This is Ace's chance to grow and gain experience.

"Yeah, I came back, but I couldn't catch Tikki."

Ace's eyes were filled with confusion.

"Don't dwell on it, Ace. It's not your fault that we failed to capture Teach."

"Yeah, Ace, we saw the news. You fought with Kizaru and you weren't at a disadvantage at all!"

"Yes, good job!"

"As expected of you, Captain Ace!"

"···"

On the Moby Dick, everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates praised Ace.

"Everyone···"

Hearing the praise from his family, the expression on Ace's face became more complicated.

"I'm sorry, Dad."

Ace made a decision in his mind, and suddenly knelt down in front of Whitebeard, slamming his head heavily on the deck.

"I want to quit the Whitebeard Pirates!"

The sound of Ace's rupture resounded throughout the Moby Dick. The originally bustling deck suddenly became quiet, with only the sound of the sea breeze blowing in everyone's ears.

Silence. The huge Moby Dick remained silent.

Grrrrrrrrrr!

Whitebeard picked up a jar of wine beside him and drank the liquor in big gulps. Apart from the sea breeze, the only sound in everyone's ears was the sound of Whitebeard swallowing.

Until the last drop of wine fell into Whitebeard's mouth, he looked at Ace, who was kneeling with his head pressed against the ground.

boom!
The wine jar fell onto the deck and shattered into pieces. Whitebeard's voice finally rang out.

"Why, do you think I can no longer protect my sons from the wind and rain?"

"No, Dad!"

Ace suddenly raised his head, his face full of tears.

"The Straw Hat Luffy who was captured by Teach and presented to the World Government is my brother!"

"He is my only brother. No matter what, I cannot watch him being executed by the World Government."

"I will definitely rescue Luffy, even if it costs me my own life!"

Ace looked at the burly white-bearded man in front of him, the man who gave him fatherly love.

"But, he's my brother, and I can't let my father and other companions be dragged into this. So, let me quit the Whitebeard Pirates!"

"Fool!!"

Whitebeard suddenly let out a loud shout, interrupting Ace's words.

However, what followed was not rebuke or scolding, but a warm embrace.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You are my son."

"How can I let my son face this kind of thing alone? I am Whitebeard!"

"Oh!!"

"What the hell is a world government!"

"Save Ace's brother!"

"We are the Whitebeard Pirates!!"

The Moby Dick was suddenly filled with all kinds of voices. They were the Whitebeard Pirates, the group that would not easily back down even when facing the World Government!

···
New World, Wano Country, Onigashima.

Kaido was drinking happily.

After cooperating with Rhodes, he first obtained many animal-type devil fruits through hunting, and soon after that he obtained artificial devil fruits. Relying on the transaction between him and Rhodes, he already had an animal-type ability army of nearly 3,000 people under his command.

If Rhodes hadn't kept persuading him to wait, he would have started a war long ago.

A portal suddenly opened, and a figure appeared in a flash of lightning.

"Ok?"

Kaido raised his eyes and looked at Nalu who appeared beside him.

"It's not the handover time this month yet."

"It's not about the handover of the Devil Fruit."

Nelu shook his head slightly, and the observation Haki he released detected many powerful auras.

Although Kaido has been suppressed and has not caused any trouble in the past year because of his boss Rod, the power under his command is expanding at an exaggerated rate.

"What's that?"

Kaido looked at Neru with drunken eyes.

After Rod was able to provide him with a continuous supply of devil fruits, Kaido originally wanted to snatch them away directly.

He is a pirate. Why should he give something to someone else when he can snatch it from his own hands?

Then, he was severely taught a lesson by Rhodes.

Although he can see his power growing little by little every day, he has never had the chance to start his favorite war. Kaido feels that he can no longer hold back.

"What interests you most."

Neru looked at Kaido.

"How about starting a war that will engulf the entire world?"

boom!
The wine jar in Kaido's hand was suddenly crushed, the smell of alcohol on his face dissipated instantly, and a strong light burst out from his eyes.

"The wait is finally here!"

The strong domineering aura was released, causing the bodies of many pirates on Onigashima to stiffen slightly, and then they let out bursts of cheers.

This is the arrogance of their admiral!
"Ugh, I'm going to drag the entire world into the war!!"

Kaido roared wildly, and he felt the anger that he had suppressed for many years burst out.

···
The new world is where the red-haired pirates are stationed.

"Boss?"

The officers looked at Shanks.

They had already read in the newspapers that Luffy had been captured and was about to be publicly executed by the World Government.

The other party is the younger generation they are optimistic about, and he is also the person the captain has high hopes for and entrusts his dreams to.

How could such a person who was destined to bring great changes to the world be easily executed by the navy?

However, they are a team, and the final action still needs the captain to give orders.

"Luffy is our friend."

Shanks stood up, walked to the bow, and looked at the calm sea.

The weather in the new world is unpredictable. It may be calm at one moment, but in the next moment, it may be raging. Although the sea in front of us looks calm, under this calmness, there are huge waves brewing that can swallow everything.

"As a pirate, how can you watch your friends suffer and do nothing?"

Shanks turned around and glanced over his companions, a smile spreading across his face.

"Let's go get our friends!"

"Oh!"

"I knew it!"

"Luffy, that brat, I didn't expect him to meet us under such circumstances!"

The companions on the pirate ship were laughing and making noise, as if they had no idea that they were about to confront the behemoth that is the World Government.

"don’t worry!"

Shanks patted Jesus' shoulder. His old friend was cleaning his spear in silence.

"Usopp will be fine."

"That's not what I'm worried about."

Jesus turned his head away, not wanting to reveal his feelings.

"Whether it's Luffy or his friends, we will rescue them all!"

Shanks patted Jesus' shoulder, turned around and looked back at the sea.

At the end of their sight, the wind was rising and the clouds were surging. It was visible to the naked eye that the surface of the sea seemed to be turned upside down and was rushing towards them.

"The storm is coming!"

···
Grand Line, the base of the revolutionary army, Baldigo.

Dorag stood in the wind, holding a newspaper tightly in his hand.

In recent days, he often stood in the wind holding this newspaper, wondering what he was thinking about.

"Let's go rescue him."

A gentle voice sounded beside Dorag.

A burly figure stood beside Dorag, looking at him with slightly worried eyes.

"This is a trap set by the world government."

Dorag put the newspaper away and answered in his best calm voice.

He is Luffy's father and also the leader of the Revolutionary Army.

Although Luffy is a pirate, he does not have much reputation. At best, he is just a pirate supernova. There are several pirate supernovas like him every year. It is not worth it for the World Government to publicly execute him.

There is only one reason why the world government could make such a big fuss.

Not only is he Luffy's father, he is also the leader of the Revolutionary Army!
"Whether it's a trap or not, Luffy and the others have indeed been caught, and are in imminent danger."

"If you really don't take action and allow Luffy to be executed by the World Government, I'm afraid that you, Dragon, will be surrounded by pain and regret for the rest of your life."

Big Bear looked at his best friend and for some reason, Ginny's face suddenly appeared in front of him.

They are the revolutionary army, people who are determined to save this terrible world and bring a better life to more people.

However, in order to save others, we often put ourselves in danger.

It was not until he lost Ginny forever, and until he grew up with Bonnie, that Big Bear felt more and more the importance they had in his life.

He himself had experienced pain, and he didn't want his friends to go through the same pain as him.

Dorag stood in the cold wind, looking at the white earth land in front of him.

"Big Bear, if anything unexpected happens, the Revolutionary Army will be in your hands."

After a long time, Dorag's voice suddenly rang out.

"You are a gentle person. If it were you, you would definitely put protecting the happiness of others first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dorag disappeared from the spot.

"As a father, I want to rescue my son."

···
Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.

"Akainu, Aokiji, Kizaru, all three of them are back."

Zhan Guo was sorting out the navy's arrangements.

"Kizaru is still in Shampoodi, but with his speed he can come back at any time."

Vice Admiral Tsuru replied.

"Where are the lieutenant generals?"

"Except for the base commanders of several important branches in the Grand Line, all the others have issued summons, and the rescued ones have returned to Marinford in the past two days."

"Where are the soldiers?"

"More than half of the elite naval forces summoned from various branches have already arrived, and the rest will arrive in the next three days."

"Where are the Shichibukai?"

"We have already arranged for someone to go. This is an unprecedented mandatory call, and there shouldn't be anyone who won't respond."

"Ok!"

Zhan Guo rubbed his head.

Blackbeard Teach really gave him a big problem.

Straw Hat Boy Luffy is the grandson of Garp and the son of the revolutionary army Dragon. This guy chose to go to sea as a pirate, became a pirate supernova, and was captured and sent to the navy.

This kid's character was too complicated, which made Zhan Guo hesitate for a long time.

However, in the end, Zhan Guo made a decision.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a chance to suppress the pirates and the Revolutionary Army in one fell swoop!
Due to the sudden rise of Tyrant Rod, the Navy's control over the New World has plummeted, and the pirates have become more powerful.

Not only that, the fist security companies they established around the world have greatly maintained the security of the surrounding areas, which is even better than what the navy does, and it is another heavy blow to the reputation of the navy.

At this moment, the navy needs a big victory, a victory that can shock the whole world.

During his tenure, the Navy lost its voice in the New World. Now it's time to take it back!
···
"You little brat, why did you choose to be a pirate?"

Garp looked at Luffy with a sad face.

This is his grandson, a grandson with outstanding talent and for whom he has high hopes.

He wanted to train his grandson to be an excellent marine, but he didn't expect that the other party wanted to become a pirate.

Now, he has been captured and taken to Impel Down, where he will be publicly executed.

Thinking of this, Karp couldn't help but clench his fists, wishing he could smash the prison in front of him to pieces with one punch.

However, he can't.

He is a naval hero, an old marine who has carried justice on his back all his life. He has his own stance and his own persistence.

"grandfather··"

In prison, Luffy looked at his grandfather. It had only been a few months since they last saw each other, but he seemed to have suddenly aged a lot.

"Eat more, little brat! I brought you some meat!"

Garp placed the sumptuous food in front of Luffy, then stood up and slowly left.

"I'll see you again tomorrow."

After leaving Impel Down, Garp boarded his own warship and returned to the Navy Headquarters. However, he was in no mood to go to the office and went straight to the rest area at the back.

There used to be a rest area for the families of navy officers in Marinford, but in order to prepare for the possible war that might happen next, most of the families were dispersed to other places. Now, those living here are navy soldiers from all over the world.

"Do you think this is really right, Garp?"

Just as Cap was passing by a yard, a low voice suddenly came from the shadows, causing him to stop instantly.

"Pardon the sins of the most heinous pirates, and even allow them to become Shichibukai and work with the navy; while pirates who have not caused any major problems are so violent that they are willing to start a huge war."

"Can the navy today still be called [justice]? Are they fighting for justice, or for something else?"

A man with purple hair stepped out from the shadows and looked at Garp with fiery eyes.

"I don't approve of this kind of navy and this kind of justice!"

"Garp, come with me, together we will build a true new navy that represents justice!"
