Pirate King: I'm determined to be the King of Sons-in-Law!

Chapter 147 What kind of newcomer isn't "arrogant"?

Night falls.

A bonfire was lit on the coast.

Ace sat by the fire, his whole body wrapped in bandages, with a brace around his neck to prevent further injury to his shattered cervical vertebrae.

His companions were all nearby, still shaken.

"It's so good that we escaped this disaster."

"I've lost all hope!"

"Me too, that black-haired guy is too strong!"

"I never expected that the Navy would invite the captain to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"Perhaps, this is Ace's luck!"

The crew looked at Ace; the moment the black-haired man drew his sword, they were ready to rush out and fight.

Although they knew it was futile and that they would likely never return, they couldn't bear to watch their captain be captured.

No one expected the situation to change so suddenly.

Heaven is looking out for the captain!

The crew members were filled with enthusiasm.

"Captain, are you going to agree to the navy's request?"

"Of course I won't agree! I don't want to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and I certainly don't want to become famous in this way!"

Ace rejected the idea without even thinking.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea have a bad reputation; their status as lackeys of the World Government alone is enough to make them despised by the pirate world.

"But, Ace."

Diuss hesitated for a moment, then said, "If we don't agree to the Navy's demands, that black-haired guy won't let us go, will he?"

"Then let's run."

Ace looked completely unconcerned.

We've been chased by the navy before, but we just ran away.

If you can't beat them, can't you at least outrun them?

There are no pirates who would fight the Navy to the death.

Besides, he never considered Loya an enemy in the first place, so there was no need for him to fight Loya to the death.

Ace perked up: "How about we make a run for it now?"

"Now?"

The others were all interested.

The record pointer has accumulated enough magnetic force to set sail at any time. Taking advantage of the night to slip away is indeed a very good idea.

Being on an island with black hair is terrifying!

"My men, set sail!"

"Ohhh!"

-

A tavern near the port in the town of Mister.

Loya sat by the window, savoring the local delicacies and drinks.

Soon, the Den Den Mushi rang.

A message came from one of the subordinates responsible for monitoring the Spade Pirates: "Admiral Loya, the Spade Pirates are escaping."

"Okay, I understand."

Loya hung up the Den Den Mushi and continued eating.

Lu Yun sat across the table, resting her chin on her hand, and asked curiously, "Senior, aren't we going to chase after them?"

"No rush, let them run for a while."

Loya took a sip of his drink.

Ace running away was expected; it would be surprising if that guy accepted the invitation.

Giving Ace half a day to consider was just a way to let him run away.

Loya wiped his mouth with a tissue and looked at his adjutant: "Lu Yun, what's our mission now?"

"Recruit Fire Fist Ace?"

Lu Yun began to understand Luo Ya's thoughts.

"That's right!"

Loya smiled and said, "Since it's about recruiting Fire Fist Ace, why are we in such a hurry? It's not like we're going to capture him. This is an important mission given to us by the Marine Headquarters, so we need to communicate amicably."

At first, he was a little annoyed.

Then I thought about it again and realized that it was only 200 million Berries, nothing to regret. There are too many pirates in the New World with bounties over 100 million Berries.

Compared to a little bit of merit, it would be much better to use the pretext of recruiting Ace to legitimately follow him into the depths of the New World.

He had wanted to do this for a long time.

This is an opportunity delivered right to our doorstep!

As long as he doesn't provoke the Four Emperors, he's not afraid of any other underground forces. Even if he has a conflict with the Four Emperors, as long as he doesn't provoke trouble, he can call in as many people as he wants.

Of course, the task itself is also important.

If Ace could become a Shichibukai, it would be a good thing for him, at least their relationship would be closer.

In addition, he didn't want Ace to fall into Whitebeard's hands.

What future can you have as a second-in-command?

As for the Marineford War, it is certain that it could have an impact.

However, the essence of the Marineford War was the Navy's operation against the Whitebeard Pirates, aimed at eliminating the Whitebeard Pirates, curbing the arrogance of pirates, and thus stabilizing the hearts and minds of people around the world.

Ace's capture has brought the Navy and Whitebeard to the brink of war, but if the Navy does not intend to wage a full-scale war, there are still ways to de-escalate the conflict: secret execution or imprisonment.

The increasingly chaotic global situation is forcing the Navy to achieve a major victory. Without Ace's capture, there would most likely be another Marineford War.

"Give the order: everyone get plenty of rest. We'll set sail at six o'clock tomorrow morning!"

"Yes."

The next day, at six in the morning.

The warship departed the port on time, heading in the direction the Spade Pirates had gone.

Lu Yun held a monitor that resembled a laptop. The screen displayed a winter island with mountains that had black and white stripes like zebras.

While Loa was fighting Ace, she arranged for her subordinates to place surveillance Den Den Mushi on the Spade Pirates' ship.

Unless they discover the Den Den Mushi, the Spade Pirates will be unable to escape the surveillance of Squadron 11, no matter where they go.

"Senior Loya, the Spade Pirates are approaching Winter Bear Island."

"Winter Bear Island?"

Loya stroked his chin, feeling that the name of the island sounded somewhat familiar.

Lu Yun whispered a reminder: "This is the territory of the Beasts Pirates!"

"This is a bit troublesome."

Loya frowned.

If I remember correctly, Ace's goal was to challenge Whitebeard, and he even fought Jinbe for five days and five nights for it. How did he suddenly end up in Kaido's territory?

That kid wouldn't be thinking of challenging Kaido, would he?

"Senior, what should we do?"

"What else can we do? Chase after them!"

Loya did not hesitate for long.

The New World is basically the territory of the Four Emperors. If you're too timid, you won't be able to act. You can only try not to provoke Kaido.

"By the way, check Kaido's movements."

"clear."

Winter Bear Island, in the southern sea area.

"Captain Ace, we can see an island!"

"Move the boat closer!"

Ace waved his hand, his heart filled with anticipation.

His targets are not just Whitebeard; whether it's the Seven Warlords of the Sea or the Four Emperors, they are all targets he will challenge!

I wonder if there are any powerful individuals on the island.

The pirate ship quickly docked, and the temperature suddenly dropped by tens of degrees.

"Achoo!"

Ace crossed his arms over his chest, shivering from the cold, and even snot dripped from his nose. He hated the cold environment.

"Why is it so cold!"

"Captain Ace, this is a winter island, of course it's cold!"

His subordinates sighed silently and handed Ace the prepared cotton coats. Their captain was fire, so naturally he didn't like cold environments.

"Shall we switch to another island?"

"Need not!"

Ace shook his head.

Now that we're here, how can we leave so easily?

It's just a little cold.

"Achoo!"

Winter Bear Island, weapons factory.

The fully armed soldiers quickly found the highest-ranking officer guarding Winter Bear Island, "Iron Boy" Scotch.

"Lord Scoch, a pirate ship has been spotted at the southern port!"

"Oh, who is it?"

"It's that recently famous newcomer, Fire Fist Ace!"

"Fire Fist!"

Scoch fiddled with the machine gun, his previously nonchalant attitude immediately turning serious. Supernovas are not easy to deal with!

"Let's go, let's go meet that Fire Fist!"

"yes!"

A moment later, Scoch and his men blocked the way for the Spade Pirates.

"Da da da da!"

The spitting bullets rained down on the snow, halting the Spade Pirates' advance.

Scoc stopped shooting, supporting his right hand, which had been converted into a gun barrel. Instead of immediately taking action, he politely offered advice.

"Newcomer, this is the island of Lord Kaido, one of the Four Emperors. I have been appointed to guard this place."

"Oh, so what do you want?"

Ace stared at Scout, assessing his opponent's fighting strength.

"I don't want anything."

Scocci shook his head and said, "I just want to warn you not to cause trouble on this island. If you anger Lord Kaido, the consequences will be severe."

"You mean Kaido won't let things go once he takes your head? Am I right?"

Ace grinned.

Scout, unaware of the newcomer's arrogance, said seriously, "That's all there is to it. If you understand, you'd better leave now."

"Haha, that makes things easier!"

Flames erupted from Ace's body!

"Fire Fist!!!"
