One Piece: I Weave the Pirate Codex with My Zanpakuto

Before long, the Whitebeard Pirates, who had been sailing parallel to the mains, suddenly changed direction and headed towards Whole Cake Island.

"Miss Nicole, you—no! How do you know Whitebeard?"

Finally, someone in One Piece raised their hand to ask a question.

"Ross and Newgate are very close, they're best friends, didn't you know that?"

Faced with Olvia's strange question, the pirates all shook their heads.

"How could we possibly know about something like that?!"

"But to know that kind of pirate crew, hahaha, no wonder he's the boss of Hanahanafuda! So the boss foresaw this day all along!"

"So that's how it is! So this was the boss's plan!!"

"cough!"

Hana Hanazawa coughed lightly to cover her embarrassment, quickly adjusted her expression, and nodded inscrutably.

"I just made the right bet. I've been optimistic about the potential of the great pirate Ross for a long time."

"That's why I chose to go to the island at this time."

"Alright, let's welcome our friendly forces!"

……

In the distance, the Whitebeard Pirates' ship---

As Newgate watched the unfamiliar pirate crew ahead suddenly set off fireworks, he stroked his beard.

"What are those guys doing, Gram? Are they your friends?"

Polo Gram shook his head: "It should be Ross's subordinate. When Olvia contacted us just now, she mentioned the Lizard King."

"I've heard about that newcomer. He seems carefree and like a brainless tough guy."

"Actually, he is very shrewd. He has a considerable network of connections in the underworld, and each of the Zoan-type Devil Fruits he sells can fetch a high price."

Newgate nodded thoughtfully.

When Olvia asked for help, he naturally went.

Add to all the favors I owed him before, and the drinks Ross treated me to...

No matter how far he calculates things, he can't possibly ignore this matter.

I got up and walked to the front of the ship. The smoke-filled Whole Cake Island in my field of vision grew bigger and bigger.

Newgate didn't know why his ship had suddenly ended up in this place, but he knew Marco's character.

That brat will definitely not slack off, that's the only explanation...

"Looks like the ocean wanted to bring us here, gurgle gurgle~~"

"You stupid sons, raise the sails, accelerate at full speed, we're going to support Ross!"

"Yes, Dad!"

……

[Cake Island, near the Cake Castle]

Ross sat leaning against the ruins, his rapid breathing sounding like a broken bellows.

Not far away, Garp was standing panting heavily, but his condition was not much better.

Deep, bone-revealing wounds spanned his entire upper body, with scattered wounds on his limbs and other parts of his body as well.

"You monster, indeed, capturing you and sending you to Impel Down is the best option."

Garp's playful expression vanished, replaced by solemnity, and... a trace of lingering fear.

Just now, after the enemy slashed him away, he used a strange move called "Black Coffin".

'A faint, murky emblem reveals an untamed and arrogant talent…'

'The Iron Princess Who Hinders Eternal Sleep, Crawling...'

The strange chanting ended quickly, giving him no time to react.

The black wall that suddenly appeared grew in the blink of an eye, followed by a frenzied attack of countless shadow blades wreathed in domineering energy.

If he hadn't reacted quickly and broken through with his strongest power in time, he would probably have ended up like his enemy.

"Come with me, Ross, and let's begin your pirate career..."

"Gurala la la!"

A hearty laugh echoed from afar.

"Garp, what are you going to do to my best friend!?"

"Ross, I'm here!"

Rose's eyes were full of exhaustion.

"Ah, you've come at just the right time, Newgate...!?!"

Suddenly, a strange sound mixed with a domineering tone came from not far away.

"Cake! I want the Tea Party Matcha Ice Cream Cake!"

"This is……!"

Everyone present changed their expressions slightly, and Ross and the other two subconsciously looked in the direction from which the sound came.

"Hey, are you kidding me? What's going on with that guy (/Lingling)?!"

Chapter 54 Food Cravings, Lingling's Rampage!

[Battlefield in front of the Cake Castle]

Zefa retreated swiftly, his brow furrowed.

"What's going on..."

Looking at the enemy not far away, screaming and shouting that they wanted to eat some kind of cake.

Did he hit too hard and damage the enemy's head?

"Zeff, what happened!?"

With Whitebeard's appearance, Garp naturally could no longer stay in that kind of place.

After fighting Ross for three days and two nights, he still had some energy left, but he needed to fight Edward Newgate with his white beard again...

The probability of losing is over 50%.

If he, a naval hero, were to lose to pirates in such a place, the World Economic News would certainly make a big fuss about it.

He might not care about his reputation, but the Navy can't.

The Navy's reputation had finally improved because of the God Valley incident, and it must not be damaged again because of him.

Although Garp was unwilling to acknowledge God Valley's contribution, as a Marine, he couldn't refuse.

"I don't know. It was fine before, and then suddenly it turned into this."

Zephyr first responded to Garp's question, then looked at the two figures walking towards him in the distance.

"It seems this capture operation is going to fall through again. What's Whitebeard doing here?"

Blu-ray Blu-ray Blu-ray~~

Kacha--

"Lieutenant General Garp!"

Bogart's voice came through the Den Den Mushi.

"Members of the Whitebeard Pirates have joined the battle. I'm currently fighting Boro Gram, and the marines' casualties are starting to rise..."

Before Bogart could finish speaking, Zephyr snatched the Den Den Mushi and gave the order.

"Retreat everyone. There's no point in continuing this battle. We've already achieved our objective."

"Yes, Lieutenant General Zephyr!"

Kacha--

"Let's retreat, Garp. Let the pirates handle this mess."

Zephyr glanced one last time at the two men, one tall and one short, who were approaching, patted Garp on the shoulder, and took off using Moonwalk, rushing towards the beach where the Navy was fighting.

Karp remained silent, only staring at Rose across the distance for a long time.

“I’ll catch you, Ross. Impel Down will always have a single suite reserved for you.”

"Garp, if you can't make it in the Navy, come to Miracle Island."

Ross ignored Karp's threat and instead smiled as he handed over the invitation.

"The Navy upholds the justice of the Celestial Dragons. As long as you have someone sitting on your heads, the Navy will never be able to uphold its own justice."

"I plan to create a unique team of thirteen leaders, regardless of whether you are a navy officer, a pirate, a revolutionary, or a henchman in the underworld."

"Anyone who qualifies will receive an invitation personally sent by me..."

"Don't joke around, I'll only ever be a Marine!" Garp turned and left.

"This doesn't conflict with your continued work in the Navy, Garp!"

Taking advantage of Lingling's early stage of illness, Ross shouted:

"After that bastard Rocks died, I was one of the few members of the Rocks Pirates who did not continue sailing as a pirate."

"Karp, this invitation is valid indefinitely. If you ever feel lost about the future, feel free to come to me anytime!"

Garp stopped replying and quickened his pace of retreat.

"Thunder! Lightning!"

The flashing lightning dragon crashed down towards Ross.

Newgate took a large step forward and slammed his left fist, which was wrapped in a vibrating aura, into the sky.

Airquake!

The raging shockwave tore through the lightning, and the raised Murakumogiri blocked the rapidly approaching former comrade.

"Ross, you're really going to do something reckless, inviting a hero of the Navy to join the pirates."

"Hahaha~~ I know Garp won't join, but that doesn't stop me from disgusting the World Government officials."

Ross began to dissect the flesh, prying open the fish's mouth and crawling inside.

“Five minutes, Newgate, please hold Lingling back for five minutes.”

"I understand."

With a powerful swing of his arm, he chopped away Lingling, who was still shouting "Tea party matcha ice cream cake".

Newgate stomped forward with his big foot and gripped the narrow hilt of his knife with his left hand.

The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit extends from the palm of the hand that makes contact to the tip of the weapon.

"Gulalalala, Lingling, you look really pathetic right now!"

"Airquake!"

The clouds in the sky were torn apart by an immense force, and Zeus, the thundercloud that carried Charlotte Linlin, let out a series of exclamations.

"Mom, I'm going to be torn to pieces!"

"The Great Free God of the Heavenly Realm!!"

Having lost her mind, Charlotte Linlin completely disregarded the life or death of the Homies, seized control of Zeus's lightning, and launched an indiscriminate attack on the area where Whitebeard was located.

"What on earth happened, Newgate, Ross! What's wrong with Lingling!?"

Once Garp and Zephyr's presence disappeared, the long bread that had appeared out of nowhere looked anxious.

"How would I know? Long bread, shouldn't you know more about this than I do?!"

Energizing the power of the tremor to tear apart the lightning, Newgate's gaze suddenly locked onto Zeus the thundercloud.
