After retiring from the Navy, I became a doting husband.

He was once as famous as Gol D. Roger and Edward Newgate.

Although the Golden Lion was rather unlucky and not very strong, he belonged to the strongmen of the old era.

That's a renowned figure, a great pirate on par with the old man, how could he possibly call a young man "dad"?

What's wrong with this world?

The crowd looked at each other, remaining silent.

I still don't understand what happened; it feels like a dream, an unreal experience.

Even Whitebeard himself was speechless, looking at Shiki as if he were an idiot.

“Shiki, you are my peer, both of us are heroic men who roam the seas. I never thought you would fall to this state.”

Whitebeard shook his head slightly, only complaining in his heart, his eyes looking inscrutable.

Shiki the Golden Lion lowered his head, feeling deeply ashamed, his fists clenched, looking as if he was enduring something.

Yes, he felt ashamed to be someone else's son.

"I never thought... Shiki, you'd end up like this."

Seeing this, Whitebeard didn't want to say anything more. He said in a deep voice, "What a loving father and filial son."

"I have lost."

Then he said to Martin, "Kid, you dare to refuse me? You have some courage. I didn't expect your son to be so unexpected. Go and conquer this turbulent sea. We'll meet again sometime, and maybe we can have a good drink together!"

And so, Martin's strength was recognized by the world's strongest man.

However, Martin stopped the other person and whispered a few words to them.

Are you serious?

Whitebeard glared at Blackbeard Teach as he spoke.

Teach could clearly sense that his father's mood was off. Why did he seem angry with him?

What slander did this person believe?

After saying this, he sailed away under the watchful eye of the white-bearded man.

Martin glanced back at the white-bearded figure, which was growing smaller and smaller, and looked at Shiki, who was trembling all over.

Hmm, this old guy has a rebellious streak. He seems to be resisting the power of "Mirror Flower Water Moon," which shows that his mental strength is not weak either.

I wonder how long the hypnotic power of the illusion will last.

Indeed, he could clearly sense the rebellious nature of that old bastard, Shiki.

As a former great pirate, his mental strength and willpower were quite firm, only slightly inferior to Whitebeard's, which is why he was hypnotized by Kyoka Suigetsu.

I wonder how long it will take for the other person to break free from the illusion of a mirage.

Just then, Martin saw a warship approaching him. The warship was menacing and its speed was undiminished. On board were his creditors.

"Martin, stop right there!"

A beautiful woman at the bow of the ship shouted.

"I didn't move."

Martin shrugged and waved at the other person.

When the warship arrived at Martin's small boat, Martin jumped aboard and shouted, "My dears, I've missed you all so much!"

Wow, this warship has so many.

rub rub!

Just as Martin opened his arms to embrace the three men, they all drew their weapons and held them to Martin's neck.

"Martin, you have abandoned us, prepare to die!"

"Peach Rabbit shouted loudly."

Tashigi nodded, and Tina followed suit. The three beauties unleashed their killing intent almost simultaneously.

"Well, you're all so murderous. Are you trying to murder your husband?"

Sensing the murderous intent, Martin's expression turned serious: "I mailed you letters hoping to find the three of you as soon as possible, why are you doing this to me?"

"I don't believe it. Why did you choose to fake your death that day?"

Do you know how heartbroken we are?

Momousagi took the lead and placed the cold blade against Martin's neck.

If Martin hadn't been so thick-skinned, he probably would have been cut and bled.

Good grief, are you guys serious?

He took a deep breath, suddenly raised his head at a 45-degree angle, his expression sincere and his eyes filled with tears: "My three wives, I was wrong!"

"There were three sincere loves placed before me, but I did not cherish them. When I lost them, I regretted it deeply. There is nothing more painful in the world than this. Throw your swords into my throat, don't hesitate any longer!"

"If God could give me another chance, I would say three words to the three girls: I love you all. If I had to put a time limit on this love, I hope it would be ten thousand years!"

The heartfelt words struck the hearts of the three men, instantly moving them to tears. The swords in their hands fell to the ground, and tears streamed down their faces.

"Come, come... let's catch up."

Martin led the three of them into the cabin in full view of everyone.

Before long, the warship began to shake violently, rocking from side to side, and the screams of three girls could be heard, making the naval soldiers tremble with fear. By the time the shaking stopped, it was already night.

Martin then stepped off the warship. He was a little tired, closed his eyes, and called out, "Golden Lion Shiki, my good son, take me home."

"Great, now's the time!"

As Martin closed his eyes and began to snore, the golden lion suddenly unleashed its might, its eyes flashing with a vengeful light. Immediately afterward, the small boat took flight and began to speed through the night.

……

Meanwhile, in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Garp walked side by side on the road to Pangaea.

The Whitebeard Pirates' raid on Impel Down has caused turmoil throughout the world, making pirates even more rampant. Intelligence from various branches indicates that several towns have already been persecuted.

"The Whitebeard Pirates have always been used to freedom."

"Moreover, Akainu ran into Martin this time, and it seems that Martin is involved with one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Boya Hancock."

Karp said in a heavy tone, "What I'm worried about now is the situation in the new world, and whether there is a mysterious force behind the demon sword Martin."

"I have already told the Five Elders about this. They have sent their best spies around the world to investigate the truth of this matter."

"If it's true, what measures will the World Government take? After all, you and I both know that Martin might become the new Yonko."

The Warring States period began.

Garp nodded, thought for a moment, and, having nothing to hide from Sengoku, said, "If necessary, we will use that thing."

After hearing this, Zhan Guo's eyes flickered, and he fell silent again, lost in thought.

soon.

The two met the Five Elders.

The blond-haired elder spoke first to the two: "I called you here today because there's something I need to tell you."

Sengoku and Garp exchanged a glance upon hearing this.

Then, the blond-haired Five Elders took out a photograph and placed it on the table. Sengoku's gaze sharpened when he saw the person in the photograph.

"Hey, are you guys really going to choose him?"

"Karp asked with a serious expression."

That's right, his identity is somewhat different, and his strength is also quite good.

"It is said by the bald Five Elders dressed in samurai attire."

The voice just fell.

Sitting next to him, the old man with a mustache, Wu Laoxing, chimed in, "Because that kid Martin suddenly appeared out of nowhere and completely disrupted our overall plan, this time we need to speed up our actions."

"Furthermore, this war has shown us the shortcomings of your navy, allowing that kid to establish himself in the New World. This is all your navy's fault. Therefore, we are considering whether to form a new power."

"And this force can not only restrain the pirates, but also help your navy at the same time."

Both Garp and Sengoku frowned in unison.

This was something they had absolutely not anticipated.

Before leaving, Sengoku couldn't help but glance at the photo of Martin on the table one last time.

He left with a heavy heart.

……

A drowsy Martin experienced what skill cooldown meant.

The three heroes fought Lü Bu to a draw, which also made him feel the malice of his wives.

When he opened his eyes, he realized that his ship was still floating in the sky.

Why didn't Shiki the Golden Lion ambush him along the way?

Yes, even though I was asleep, my Observation Haki was fully activated. If the other party had any ill intentions towards me and launched an attack, I could sense it immediately.

However, Shiki, who had already revealed his rebellious nature, did not launch a sneak attack on him.

"Shiki?!"

Martin immediately activated his Observation Haki, locking onto Shiki's location. Shiki was watching him from a rock in the distance: "Son, what do you want to do?"

"Martin, you damned old man, you think you can be my father? Today I'll teach you what betrayal is all about!" Shiki said viciously.

"So they really betrayed us? The hypnotic effect of Kyoka Suigetsu isn't very reliable. It's just that this Zanpakuto's function is wrong."

Martin looked up at the strange landscape shrouded in layers of mist: "Where is this?"

"Where is this? This is the place where you will be buried."

As he spoke, Shiki turned and fled swiftly, disappearing into the clouds in an instant.
