One Piece: Start Collecting Nicolo

Runti looked at Caesar angrily: "No matter how disgusting Xiao Pei is, he is still my brother!"

Peggy Wan: "Isn't that the point wrong?!"

Caesar tossed the perpetual pointer and said, "Anyway, if there's nothing else, I'll be off."

"Wait, I'll go with you!"

Runti quickly followed. Although she was arguing fiercely, her body was still honest and followed closely behind Caesar.

The leaders of the Beasts Pirates all have their own ships. The two of them were on Runti's ship. Most of the hull was pink, with a devil-horned skull printed on the black sails, and the bow was shaped like a swollen-headed dragon.

The overall structure is not too big, with a length of sixty or seventy meters, which even seems a bit small compared to the New World, which is often two or three hundred meters in size.

"start sailing!"

Throwing the permanent pointer to the navigator, Runti stepped on the bow and pointed to the distance.

Caesar found a deck chair from somewhere and lay on the deck to bask in the sun.

"Hey, Caesar, what did you just say?"

After the ship left the harbor, Runti came to Caesar's side and said in a slightly confused tone, "What do you mean by a simple-minded child?"

"Ok?"

Caesar tilted his head in surprise. Although blindfolded, he could easily imagine the girl's confusion. He couldn't help but smile. "Actually, this matter itself is not complicated. Whitebeard arrested someone and threatened Kaido to let me go. It's that simple."

"If we go head-to-head with the Whitebeard Pirates, even if Kaido wins, the core members of the group will suffer heavy losses. If we're unlucky, Whitebeard might even take their lives. But if we don't fight, it would be embarrassing. Kaido called me here because he wanted me to come forward and resolve this matter."

"If I go and the Whitebeard Pirates don't release the people, then Whitebeard's reputation for morality will be tarnished, and Kaido will definitely spread this matter around the world. After all, even pirates won't be willing to follow an unethical person."

"And I'm not a member of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even if Whitebeard lets me go, I'm going to return to Wano Country."

Runti tilted her head, looking puzzled. "Weren't you caught? Why didn't you run away? Are you an idiot?"

"Running away is meaningless, becoming stronger is the truth."

Caesar smiled and said, "Besides, Kaido treats me well. Even if I can't defeat that guy, it would be nice to stay and become the real general of Wano Country."

"So you're not leaving?"

Runti's eyes lit up, and she seemed a little happy.

She had a good impression of Caesar, as they were of similar age and he was very tolerant of her.

Runti felt that if Caesar asked her for help, it was not impossible for her to be good friends with him.

"How could that be? Even if I can't defeat him, as long as I can contend with him, I will run away without hesitation."

Caesar smiled proudly: "No one can catch up with my speed now."

"whispering sound…"

Runti curled his lips and planned to report Caesar when he got back, and then let Kaido break his legs.

"Should I really cry then?"

"Cry! When you see your dad, just cry your heart out."

Caesar nodded seriously: "Whitebeard is quite generous. Without any deep hatred, it is unlikely that he would kill the other's father in front of a child. After all, he is the father himself..."

"So if nothing unexpected happens, when Marco sees me, he'll let you go once you start crying."

Runti said "oh" and turned into the kitchen, intending to find some onions to prepare for the occasion.

The waves surged and the ship sailed against the wind. After a while, as Wano Country turned into sesame seeds and disappeared on the sea level, the surrounding wind and waves also subsided.

Sailing on the sea is always boring, but this is rarely reflected in the plot.

Long periods of boredom and cramped cabins can easily drive people crazy, so pirates usually like to vent this feeling of depression by holding banquets.

There are only so many entertainment activities available on the ship. Some ships even prepare some goats to relieve the crew's stress, so that no one will go crazy and do something dangerous.

Caesar noticed Runti's crew. The number of female pirates accounted for nearly 30%, which was a very high proportion for a pirate ship.

However, precisely because of this, the relationship between the crew members is rather chaotic, and from time to time a love action movie is staged in Caesar's observation and perception, including some plots like "Ran Dong".

Runti seemed to be unaware of this, but Caesar could not hide the occasional flushing on her pretty face.

The chaos on the ship did not completely disappear until Caesar drained the blood of a pair of wild mandarin ducks that disturbed his sleep.

Soon, two days passed by.

Guided by the permanent pointer, a green island comes into view in the distance.

The Moby Dick was like a giant blue whale, docked on the coast.

Caesar flew high into the sky, and on the deck of the giant whale, a pair of hawk-like sharp eyes suddenly looked at him.

He was a man about the same height as Kaido, with a strong body and a crescent-shaped white beard.

He wore a black turban on his head, a white coat draped wildly over his shoulders, and his naked body was muscular, giving him an oppressive look that was different from Kaido.

The strongest man in the world, Whitebeard...

Edward Newgate!

"Gulala... Only two little ghosts came?"

Whitebeard glanced at Caesar in the sky: "That bat boy, is that the Caesar you mentioned Marco?"

"Ah! That's right!"

Blue flames rose, and Marco transformed into a phoenix and suddenly flew high into the sky: "Haha, Sassi is not paying attention! Caesar!"

"Long time no see, Marco!"

The two flying guys met in the sky, high-fived each other crisply, and then landed gracefully on the deck of the Moby Dick.

Caesar looked at the huge figure sitting upright and bowed slightly.

"Nice to meet you, Lord Newgate!"

Chapter 27 Argument

"Gu la la la..."

His sharp eyes swept over Caesar and Whitebeard grinned.

"You don't look like you were captured by Kaido, kid."

"Ah, I am now considered a member of the Beasts Pirates."

Caesar also smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have troubled you."

"It's nothing to bother with."

Even after hearing the news that Caesar had joined the Beasts, Whitebeard didn't seem angry: "After all, we took your money, so we have to give you an explanation. Otherwise, if the news gets out, it will be a loss of face for me."

"And I heard from Marco that if you hadn't taken the initiative to lure Kaido away, Marco and his men might have suffered considerable casualties. From this point of view, we owe you a favor."

Caesar smiled and said, "It's mutual. If it weren't for Marco's protection, I wouldn't have been able to achieve my goal so smoothly."

"Haha, you're still so good at talking."

Marco patted Caesar on the back and said, "Caesar, since you've been released, how about joining the Whitebeard Pirates?"

"I'm afraid not…"

Caesar shook his head slightly: "To be honest, I came here just to report that I'm safe."

"why?"

Marco's expression suddenly turned ugly: "You are not really planning to join Kaido's men, are you?"

“It’s hard to say…”

Caesar shook his head. "After all, we drank the sworn brotherhood wine. I made a pact with him. When I have the strength to confront him head-on, I can leave naturally."

"Confront Kaido head-on?"

Marco looked questioning, "You?"

"You are so rude..."

Caesar curled his lips. He didn't blame Marco for his reaction. He was getting stronger too quickly, so quickly that even he himself found it difficult to adapt to the change.

The top-notch talent brought by the Overlord allows him to grow all the time. Even if he does nothing and lies down for two and a half years, he can develop a physique as strong as a steel balloon.

"I have become stronger too."

"Gulala, he's right, Marco."

Whitebeard, who had been scrutinizing Caesar, suddenly laughed: "This brat is no weaker than you."

"what?"

Marco looked at Caesar in astonishment. He did not doubt his father's judgment, but if it was really as his father said, then this kid was getting stronger a little too fast?

The surrounding White Group members were also surprised.

"Isn't he weaker than Marco..."

Captain Thatch of the Fourth Division crossed his arms and looked at Caesar with some surprise.

He looks like a young man with a tall figure. Because it is a formal occasion, Caesar is not wearing a blindfold today. His pair of bright black eyes are full of vitality.

No matter how you look at it, he's just an ordinary kid, without any trace of a strong character...

"Not that I doubt what you said, Dad...but Caesar looks like he's barely come of age, right?"

"Gulala...Age is meaningless to real monsters."

Whitebeard smiled and said, "Kid, you're not just here to say hello this time, are you?"

Caesar nodded slightly. "To be honest, I still need to take Hanafza back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Runti's ship also approached. The girl boarded the Moby Dick with some uneasiness. Her high heels made a crisp sound as she quickly slipped behind Caesar.

Seeing Whitebeard in the main seat, Runti's eyes suddenly turned red. She shrank behind Caesar and yelled, "Hey! Whitebeard! Let my dad go! Otherwise, I... Caesar will not let you go!"

"Ah, hey your head!"

Caesar's face turned dark. I asked you to cry, but I didn't ask you to say such unnecessary words!

Why can't I spare Whitebeard?

Hearing Runti's words, Whitebeard glanced at her sharply: "Hmm?"

"Ah! How scary!"

The girl shrank back behind Caesar timidly. She was usually fearless, but now she felt a little insecure. The emotions she had built up with the onion disappeared instantly. She hid behind Caesar like a little punching bag, holding on to his shoulders tightly with both hands.

Marco looked at Caesar: "Is this your girlfriend?"

"Then I'll be annoyed to death..."

Caesar curled his lips and said, "Let's just call them friends. The man you detained is this girl's father. I originally planned to come alone, but she insisted on coming along."

"Hmph, that bastard Kaido..."

Whitebeard sneered, "You only sent two little brats?"

Caesar smiled and said, "There's not much of a conflict. Wouldn't it be better if it could be resolved peacefully?"

"Peaceful solution? Gulala..."

Whitebeard laughed loudly: "Kid, didn't that bastard Kaido tell you that my brother Kozuki Oden was killed by him? Your incident was just a fuse. Just like I asked for an explanation for you, shouldn't Kaido give me an explanation?"

"It just so happens that this lizard boy is Kaido's brother, right?"

"Then you should let him go."

"Oh why?"

"Because Kaido didn't kill Oden."

"You fart!!!"

As soon as Caesar finished speaking, before Whitebeard could say anything, Izo, the former retainer of Oden and current captain of Whitebeard's 16th team, couldn't help but jump out and looked at Caesar angrily.

He has been enduring for a long time since Caesar first came.

"In the entire Wano Country, apart from Kaido, who has the power to kill Lord Oden?"

"Black Charcoal Snake."
