Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 102 The Sea Trembles! The Whitebeard Pirates and Edward Teach! (Fourth update, 16 words)

Nasujuro Sei ignored Haku's ridiculous question, gave him a few perfunctory replies, and then hung up the Den Den Mushi.

Immediately afterwards, the Five Elders sent urgent notices to the other Shichibukai, instructing these "official great pirates" to pay close attention to the whereabouts of Whitebeard Jr.

Following Hawkeye and White Dragon.

Nasujiro's third connection with one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea is "Knight of the Sea" Jinbe.

Jinbe was very surprised by this "Whitebeard Jr." who suddenly appeared. He listened carefully to the Five Elders' mission and then hung up the Den Den Mushi.

In a sea area of ​​a new world unknown to Nassuro Sei.

Jinbe directly called the Whitebeard Pirates with a Den Den Mushi.

Since the Great Pirate Era began, the Whitebeard Pirates have planted a flag on Fishman Island.

Although the Whitebeard Pirates' flag cannot completely prevent Fishman Island from being harassed or even attacked by other forces.

However, compared to before the Whitebeard Pirates "planted their flag," the security situation on Fishman Island has improved by a great deal.

Jinbe, the "Knight of the Sea" who hails from Fishman Island, feels indebted to Whitebeard and is therefore on very good terms with the Whitebeard Pirates.

At this moment, Jinbe learned about "Whitebeard Jr." from the World Government and immediately contacted the Whitebeard Pirates.

This matter was completely outside the control of the Five Elders.

Unaware of the situation, Nasujuro continued to contact the Seven Warlords of the Sea as planned.

The fourth person to receive a Den Den Mushi notification from the Five Elders was Boa Hancock, the Kuja Emperor, located on Amazon Lily in the Calm Belt.

Hancock wasn't particularly interested in the so-called "Whitebeard II".

If it weren't for Grandma forcibly taking away the Den Den Mushi, she probably would have hung up on the Five Elders' phone!

On the fifth call.

Nasujiro hesitated for a moment, but eventually dialed the number.

No matter how outrageous Donquixote Doflamingo's actions are, he is indeed one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea under the government's command.

Upon receiving a call from one of the Five Elders, Doflamingo became very interested in this "Whitebeard Jr."

"Fufufufu... A young, white-bearded man who ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit?"

Doflamingo, his body wrapped in bandages, looked at the wanted poster held up by Monet and let out a low laugh.

"This ocean is getting more and more interesting..."

"Understood, Nasujiro Sei. I will cooperate with the government."

After Nasujiro Sei hung up the Den Den Mushi.

Monet looked at Doflamingo with great concern.

"Young Master, you've suffered such serious injuries, you shouldn't engage in strenuous activity for the time being..."

There is another hidden meaning in Monet's words—

This suddenly appearing "Whitebeard II" is an enemy that even the government cannot deal with.

Even just the name itself gave Monet a very strong sense of awe.

Monet was genuinely worried that Doflamingo would actively seek out Whitebeard Jr.

Just like a few days ago, Doflamingo took the initiative to go to Wano Country and seek out Kaido of the Beasts...

"Fufufufu...Monet, do I look like such a foolish person?"

Doflamingo lay in bed, a warm feeling flowing through his heart from the concern of his "family".

Even the body that was nearly shattered by Kaido's club no longer hurt so much...

"That incident with Kaido of the Beasts was just an accident..."

Doflamingo paused for a moment before slowly speaking.

"Besides, we've already successfully established contact with the Beasts Pirates..."

"Isn't this good enough? Fufufufu..."

To avoid making Monet, the Snow Woman, worry too much, Doflamingo forced a smile.

He admitted that he had been a bit careless before.

A few days ago.

Doflamingo set off from Dressrosa full of confidence.

He planned to steal the Lizard King's treasure and then give it to the Beasts Pirates, thereby establishing a relationship with Kaido of the Beasts.

The first half of the plan went very smoothly.

The treasure ship secretly dispatched by the Lizard King to the New World was intercepted by Doflamingo halfway there.

The two Zoan-type Ancient Zoan-type Dragon-Dragon Fruits on the ship were also stolen by Doflamingo on the spot.

The problem lies in the second half.

Doflamingo personally traveled to Wano Country, bringing with him precious gifts and heartfelt sincerity.

Kaido of the Beasts gladly accepted the gift offered by the Heavenly Yaksha.

Then he casually gave the "flamingo" a blow with a spiked club.

When Doflamingo woke up again.

He's already been thrown into Udon Prison in Wano Country by the Beasts Pirates' henchmen...

If it weren't for Doflamingo using his silver tongue to make countless extravagant promises and sign an extremely unequal treaty with the Beasts Pirates, they would have been in a much worse situation.

He probably won't be able to return to Dressrosa right now; he's probably still in Udon Prison in Wano Country, doing manual labor and illegal work for the Beasts Pirates!

Rao is so.

Doflamingo has not yet recovered from the severe injuries he suffered.

Kaido of the Beasts, that monster!

Doflamingo only had a blurry image of a figure flash through his mind before he involuntarily shuddered.

Silently, yet another man trying to quit gambling has appeared...

"Young Master, does it hurt a lot?"

Monet, the Snow Woman, looked at Doflamingo, who was trembling all over, and her expression immediately became anxious.

"I'll go get the doctor right away!"

"No, no need, Monet."

Doflamingo quickly called a halt to the loyal snow woman.

"I'm fine."

Before Monet could respond, Doflamingo abruptly changed the subject.

"Let his men gather information about that Whitebeard II; the family members don't need to pay attention to him."

"No! Get close! Monster!"

In the end, Doflamingo's words still carried a subtle yet deep-seated fear.

the other side.

Nassou Sei just finished a phone call with Crocodile.

He originally valued the sand crocodile very much.

After all, this guy was a monstrous young man in his youth, whose strength was on par with that of Douglas Barrett, the heir of the devil.

I never expected him to be so dejected now...

Crocodile, who couldn't even defeat White Dragon, is no longer valued by Nasujuro Sei.

If it weren't for the fact that the sand crocodile is still alive and well.

Nasujuro wants to strip this sand crocodile of his status as a Shichibukai!

Crocodile showed great interest in "Whitebeard II".

Nassuro Sei was pleased to see this.

If Crocodile finds Whitebeard Jr., and then Whitebeard Jr. kills him, Whitebeard Jr. will then take his place as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea...

That would be the best-case scenario for the government!

Just as Nasujuro was about to dial the Den Den Mushi to call the last of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Suddenly, another Den Den Mushi (snail phone) rang within the room of power.

Nassuro Sei stared intently.

The Den Den Mushi of the Five Elders, the Legal God of War, Topman Vochuli Saint, is constantly sending out signals.

Nassuro immediately quieted down.

When Vocuri answered the Den Den Mushi, a rapid notification sound came from the receiver.

"Vocliland Saint! Enies Lobby is under attack by giants!"

"Leading the group are the captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates from a hundred years ago, Red Oni Brogy and Blue Oni Dorry!"

"The gatekeeper giant of Enies Lobby has betrayed us!"

"Four giants stole a warship and escaped Enies Lobby!"

Urgent announcements from judges on Judicial Island echoed repeatedly amidst the power struggle.

Upon hearing this, the five elders all frowned.

Unbeknownst to them, their mental connection was re-established.

"The captain of the Giant Warrior Pirates? I remember those two were fighting on Little Garden."

"Who released those two giants? And why did they attack Enies Lobby?!"

"Judicial Island is one of the government's three major departments! The government is completely disgracing itself!"

"Pursue! We must pursue them! Dispatch warships to chase those four giants!"

Even if we can't kill those four giants, we can at least have the warships drive them into the Devil's Triangle!

"Isn't there a Shichibukai stationed in the Devil's Triangle?"

Let the pirates fight the pirates!

"But the Shichibukai there is Gecko Moria... Oh well, Gecko Moria it is!"

After a brief exchange of ideas.

After offering a few words of reassurance to the judges on Enies Lobby, Sacred Vochuli methodically issued orders, commanding the surrounding naval bases to dispatch warships to pursue the giants.

After things are settled in Vocuri.

Nasujiro then called the last of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

"Gecko Moria, the government has a mission for you! Four giants may be heading into the Devil's Triangle. Don't let them get away!"

"Giants? Hehehehe! I love giants the most! Leave those four giants to me!!"

……

At a time when world governments are actively taking action.

The ocean was also stirred up by the bounty on "Whitebeard II Edward Teach".

The New World, a certain sea area, the deck of the Moby Dick.

Edward Newgate, the white-bearded man, was half-reclining, half-sitting on a large sofa in the center of the deck.

He was surrounded by several young and beautiful female nurses.

Each nurse was dressed in a pink nurse's uniform, with exquisite yet wild leopard-print stockings tightly encasing their slender legs, giving them a feeling that was both gentle and wild.

Around the deck, members of the Whitebeard Pirates stood or sat, most of them holding food and drinks, cheering incessantly.

This is the Whitebeard Pirates' "family routine".

"Edward Teach? I see, Jinbe."

With his golden pineapple punk hairstyle, Marco the Phoenix, the first division captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, hung up the Den Den Mushi.

This is an urgent notification from Jinbe.

In Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scoop).

Jinbe mentioned a bounty notice that the World Government suddenly issued today.

He also mentioned that he would send the bounty notice to the Moby Dick by fax shortly.

In Den Den Mushi, Jinbe's tone sounded a bit strange and awkward.

"Sea Knight" didn't say much before quickly hanging up the Den Den Mushi.

Not long after.

Marco received a fax from Jinbe.

It's the bounty poster for "Edward Teach"!

Marco stared intently at Edward Teach's photograph.

He was a founding member of the Whitebeard Pirates, having followed the young Whitebeard since he was very young.

Marco can be quite certain.

The "Edward Teach" on this wanted poster bears a striking resemblance to his father in his youth!

The same blond hair, the same long face, and even that almost identical white beard...

"Dad, you..."

Marco turned his head and glanced at his father, who was drinking alcohol while receiving an IV drip.

I'm feeling a bit unwell.

Aside from Whitebeard, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, almost all of the members are his sons, and almost all of them affectionately call Whitebeard "Dad".

Over the decades, the only exception was the former captain of the Second Division, the man named Kozuki Oden...

Kozuki Oden was not Whitebeard's son, but rather his "younger brother"...

This does not affect Marco's and others' status as "sons".

But now.

Marco turned his head and stared blankly at the bounty poster in his hand.

It seems a man more suited to be the white-bearded man's son has appeared...

"Marco, why don't you come in for a drink?"

Vista, the fifth division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, walked over with a swagger. He put his arm around Marco's shoulder and glanced sideways at the newspaper in the latter's hand.

"Huh? Why are you suddenly interested in Dad's bounty posters from when he was young?"

"You're really drunk, Vista!"

Marco shrugged and gently nudged the somewhat tipsy Vista aside.

"I don't even remember what my dad looked like when he was young!"

"This isn't my dad, it's a rookie pirate named Edward Teach!"

"Edward Teach?"

Bista let out a burp and his eyes widened.

"Teach!?"

The conversation between the two captains went completely unnoticed by anyone else.

The Whitebeard Pirates were all enjoying the banquet to the fullest.

Marco, holding the bounty poster, strode towards Whitebeard.

"Dad!"

"Gurarara, Marco..."

When the white-bearded man saw Marco walk in, he first smiled, then nervously reached out to protect the barrel in Marco's hand, and said with a look of vigilance.

"I didn't steal your drink this time; Joz just treated me to it!"

Normally, Marco would definitely say a few more words to the white-bearded man, telling him to take care of his health and not drink too much alcohol.

But right now, Marco has no such thoughts.

He held up the bounty poster in his hand to the white-bearded man, asking with a mix of grievance and humility.

"Dad, do you know 'Edward Teach'?"

"Huh? Who?"

Whitebeard heard his own surname.

He looked up at the bounty poster held high by Marco, and saw his own face from when he was young.

"Marco, what are you doing with my bounty poster?"

19 billion Berry?

"Those bastards in the Navy actually lowered my bounty!?"

Whitebeard was initially puzzled, then became furious.

Marco looked at the white-bearded man with a helpless expression.

"Dad, this isn't your bounty poster, it's a bounty poster for 'Whitebeard II'!"

"Whitebeard II?"

The white-bearded man was taken aback. He raised his hand, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the wanted poster again.

After reading the bounty notice, the white-bearded man frowned, his lips turned down, and his face was filled with a sense of absurdity and speechlessness.

"Who is this?"

"Whitebeard II, Edward Teach!"

Marco repeated the name on the bounty poster with a sigh.

After saying this, he took a few steps closer to the white-bearded man and lowered his voice.

"Dad, do you remember that person? Buckingham Stussy... Madam."

The moment the name Buckingham Stussy came out of Marco's mouth.

The white-bearded man fell silent instantly.

He does indeed have a "past" with Buckingham Stussy.

That was a story from when they were all members of the Rocks Pirates...

"Stusi..."

Whitebeard looked at the blond kid on the wanted poster who looked almost exactly like him in his youth and called out his name.

"Edward Teach...Teach!!"

A corner of the deck of the Moby Dick.

Marshall D. Teach, who was engrossed in eating cherry pie, looked up blankly.

It sounds like his dad is calling him?

What happened?
