Meanwhile, the division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates gathered in a conference room, with the doors and windows tightly shut.

A dozen or so people sat together, all staring intently at Marco.

"Marco brothers, is what you're saying true?"

"Atomus the buffalo asked in a deep, gruff voice, staring at me with his bull-like eyes."

Marco pulled a stack of old newspapers from his pocket and placed them on the table for everyone to see.

And said:

"I actually investigated Loya a long time ago."

"My father has many old injuries that are difficult to heal, so naturally I will keep an eye out for renowned doctors all over the country."

"Although Loya is a young doctor who has only recently risen to fame, there are already many reports and rumors about him,"

"Combined with what I and dozens of team members witnessed the night before..."

"It can be concluded that Loya is a Devil Fruit user, and he uses his Devil Fruit ability to heal others."

"And what he said about completely curing my father's old injuries is most likely true!"

The crowd's eyes lit up as they listened, a growing excitement stirring within them.

After a pause, Marco continued:

"As you all know, I am also a doctor, not only because of my Devil Fruit ability, but also because I am proficient in medical principles."

"If Loya can really heal all of Dad's old injuries and restore his internal organs to their youth, he can indeed extend Dad's life by at least twenty or thirty years!"

"At the same time, as the ship's doctor, after Loya treats my father, I will personally check and diagnose the effectiveness of Loya's treatment."

"So, everyone can rest assured!"

Hearing this...

The squad leaders of Qi Yi could no longer contain their excitement.

"Since that's the case, what are we waiting for? Quickly call that doctor named Loya over to treat our old man!"

7 "Yes! If Dad recovers his health, he will be invincible on this vast sea!"

2 "That's right! Go and invite that kid Loya over quickly!"

9. "I told you, this is a deal," Marco said calmly. "Loya won't treat our father for nothing!"

1. "What does he want! Money, beautiful women, territory, let him name his price! What can't the Whitebeard Pirates do!"

"Diamond Joz immediately said with great pride."

9. "Joz is right! Let him name his price! Or does he have some enemies? Does he need us to kill someone for him? Just let us know!"

Vista, the foil fencer, wiped his sword and spoke in a sharp tone.

For a moment, all the squad leaders were in high spirits.

Marco smiled and said, "He wants one of the current Seven Warlords of the Sea... Boa Hancock, the Empress of Amazon Lily!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze froze.

They all burst into laughter immediately.

"Hahaha, I knew it was some huge problem! It's just a minor Shichibukai! What's so difficult about that!"

"Yes, we can set off immediately and capture that little wench within a few days!"

"However, I must say, this Loya has quite the appetite. The Empress is hailed as the most beautiful woman on the sea! Countless men want to have a taste of her beauty!"

Seeing everyone laughing and joking.

Marco remained calm: "We're not asking us to capture the Empress!"

"Loya wants us to cooperate with him and put on a show!"

Marco then explained the specific details of the "performance" to everyone.

After listening, everyone felt that although it was a bit troublesome, it was still not too difficult to handle.

As a result, all the squad leaders voted in favor.

"In that case, I'll first invite Loya to treat my father. After confirming the effectiveness of the treatment, we'll secretly proceed without my father's knowledge and fulfill our deal with Loya."

Marco finally made the decision.

After the resolution was completed, all the squad leaders were all smiles.

No one noticed the faint unease deep in Marco's eyes.

Chapter Four: Throw this brat overboard

Apart from Marco.

All the squad leaders believed that Loya's plan against the Empress was merely because he coveted her beauty.

Marco, who had personally witnessed Loya's presence and keenly sensed the sinister aura and ambition hidden within him, vaguely felt that Loya might not be solely after the Empress's beauty.

However, there are many ambitious people in the world.

What can a tiny Loya do?

So Marco quickly stopped thinking about it.

Whether or not his father can be cured is what he should be concerned about.

……

three days later.

Marco brought Loya from the town where they first met to the flagship, the Moby Dick.

When Marco brought Loya to the white-bearded man on the deck, his expression turned serious once again.

"Dad, you're drinking again!"

"Didn't I tell you? Your health can't handle alcohol anymore..."

However, at this point, Marco suddenly laughed again.

He looked at Loya behind him.

"Don't worry, it won't be a problem to drink as much as you want in the future~" Loya smiled.

At that moment, Whitebeard also noticed Loya behind Marco.

He slurredly raised his eyelids and squinted at Loya.

"Where did this brat come from? I don't like him very much~"

"Ordinary people can't tell, but my white beard does."

"This brat has the eyes of an eagle and the glint of a wolf; he's ambitious and exudes an aura of evil!"

"He's definitely not a good person!"

"How could you allow such a brat to board my Moby Dick?"

"Quickly throw this brat overboard!"

The white-bearded man shouted in a booming voice.

And then he smashed the wine glass in his hand with a bang!

A hint of domineering pressure also emanated from him!

Loya saw this.

He couldn't help but think, "We've only just met, and Whitebeard has already seen through my true nature!"

"It seems that when it comes to patience and playing dumb, I'm far inferior to Blackbeard Teach!"

in fact.

It's no wonder that Loya couldn't hide his evil aura and imperial dominance (the eagle's gaze and wolf's look are outward manifestations of imperial dominance).

It was more than 30 years ago that Whitebeard took Teach as his son.

At the time, Teach was a destitute teenager with nowhere else to turn.

Whitebeard was still in his prime, full of vigor and high spirits.

Even if he had seen through the young Teach's ambitions at the time, he probably wouldn't have taken it seriously.

Now, the white-bearded man is old and shrewd, he is more accurate in judging people, and his style of doing things is more conservative.

Upon seeing such an evil and domineering young man as Loya, one naturally felt a sense of disgust.

This is because it means that if Loya were allowed to grow up, he would threaten his sons.

Whitebeard knew he was getting old and couldn't protect his sons for much longer.

Therefore, he immediately wanted to drive Loya away to avoid leaving trouble for his sons.

The tragedy of the Fourth Division Captain and Head Chef Sachi is enough if it happens once!

"Dad!"

"Loya is the doctor I hired. He's a Devil Fruit user, and his ability can heal all injuries and illnesses!"
