Chapter 174 The World Will Not Allow You to Be Ignorant

Newgate was about to teach his sons a lesson when he accidentally discovered that the wine bowl in his hand was gone.

When he turned around, he met Marco.

"I'm the ship's doctor, so Dad, you can't drink alcohol in your current state!"

Whitebeard glared, but had no reason to refute.

Marco also stared at his father, not giving in at all.

Under normal circumstances, if Dad really wanted to drink, he wouldn't do this. At most, he would just give him a helpless reminder and eventually compromise.

After all, as Dad just said, if a pirate can't drink, then what's the point.

"Alright, alright."

Newgate ignored the wine bowl and sat back on the deck chair. "Boy, you have my approval. Although I don't know if that bastard Roger is waiting for you, you should also be aware of the importance of Fishman Island, right?"

Kevin and Newgate sat down face to face.

Then he just waved his hand, and Marco understood and took all the members to the stern of the ship.

Many things are not suitable for newcomers to know.

Although Whitebeard didn't care, he also knew that these things would bring danger to his sons.

When I was talking with Roger under the tree, there was no one else around.

"I received a prophecy during this trip: this world will sink to the bottom of the sea."

Newgate's eyes narrowed slightly, but he did not respond.

Kevin continued, "I know some of the secrets of this world, but I don't have any detailed information about the people on Marijoa. The world will sink to the bottom of the sea. This prophecy may overturn all my previous inferences, so the importance of Fishman Island to the Revolutionary Army has increased a lot."

At this point, Kevin lowered his voice and said, "Neptune's daughter, this should be in the information Roger mentioned to you, right? Otherwise, I don't think you will include Fishman Island in your territory."

Newgate rubbed his forehead impatiently: "Whether it's Roger or you, guys like you who want to do something earth-shattering usually bring a lot of trouble."

"I did learn about the existence of the so-called ancient weapons, so after learning that someone like you was on Fishman Island, I wanted to know your purpose. Apparently, you also told me your intentions very straightforwardly."

Hearing this, Kevin shook his head slightly.

"Roger and I are not the same kind of people. The Great Pirate Era may have been started partly to change the world, but the bigger reason for that guy is that he longs for this kind of experience..."

"After being diagnosed with an incurable disease, they went to Raftelu a little early. The so-called dawn of the world in the prophecy had not yet arrived, so he was very disappointed."

"Under such circumstances, at the cost of his own life, the Great Age of Pirates begins. Pirate King Roger will become a true legend, a legend that future generations will look up to. This is his goal."

Newgate raised his eyebrows: "You seem to know us old guys from the last era very well, but in my memory, there is no memory of you. Teleportation, changing appearance, flaming blade..."

"With so many abilities gathered in one person, if he is also an old guy, it is impossible that I have no impression of him at all."

Kevin did not answer this question, but brushed it off: "The time has not come yet. When the world undergoes a drastic change, you will know. But before that, I have to make more preparations, and the same goes for the Revolutionary Army."

After he finished speaking, Whitebeard was silent for a while.

Finally, he exhaled: "I won't do it myself, but I can't stop others from doing it. This is my moral obligation, and it's also the reason why I helped Roger cover up some things."

Whitebeard looked towards the Red Earth Continent and said, "As for Fishman Island, as long as Neptune has no objection, the Whitebeard Pirates will not become an obstacle to your revolutionary army. This is my promise, and it is also the deal for you to help train these stupid sons this time."

Kevin heaved a sigh of relief after getting the answer he wanted.

After thinking for a moment, he looked at Whitebeard Newgate seriously: "I can indeed obtain the light ball like before, but as of now, I think the Whitebeard Pirates may also be the enemy of the Revolutionary Army in the future."

“Kulalala…”

This made Newgate burst into laughter: "You are still as arrogant as ever. But you bastard, do you think I can't stop you?"

Kevin calmly replied: "It's not arrogance, but the bottom line of the Revolutionary Army. The world of the future does not need pirates."

"Although it is not you who have brought harm to ordinary people, pirates cannot continue to exist in the future we have planned."

Are pirates not allowed to exist?
Newgate frowned and thought for a while: "Is that so? If this world ushers in the dawn, then the Whitebeard Pirates will no longer consider themselves pirates after that."

It was Kevin's turn to pause after hearing this.

I originally thought that Whitebeard had been a pirate all his life, so he would not agree with such words.

But Kevin obviously forgot that when he was young, Newgate went to sea because he could not survive.

In an instant, Kevin had an idea to explore further: "So... as the strongest man in the world, perhaps you also have a dream of changing the world?"

“Kulala… don’t get carried away, little brat!”

Newgate seemed to see through Kevin's mind: "Since you know me, you should know that I am not willing to stir up the hornet's nest of the World Government."

As he spoke, Newgate's thoughts went back to what happened in the Valley of the Gods: "After going through that, the only one who could continue was Roger, so he could be the Pirate King, not anyone else."

"Even if it's me or BiGMOM, or the immortal Kaido who is active in the New World, or the people who were in the Rocks Pirates back then, they are far inferior to that guy Gol D. Roger."

After hearing this answer, Kevin did not continue to try to win her over.

Instead, he stood up and smiled: "In fact, I should thank you, or rather, thank the Rocks Pirates for their attack. If it weren't for you, perhaps even a one-year-old baby like me would not have been able to escape from the Valley of the Gods."

Seeing him stand up, Newgate smiled and said, "Are you leaving? If we don't have a party together, I'm sure my sons will have a lot to ask you. You are only twenty-two, right?"

Kevin replied, "I'm almost twenty-three. Forget about the banquet, it's also depressing to have the old leading the new too much."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kevin threw a kunai and nailed it to the mast: "I will come again at this time tomorrow to bring you some medicine, so that you won't be bitten to death by a dog."

Hearing this, Whitebeard frowned and said, "I am Whitebeard, how can any dog ​​bite me to death? You bastard!"

Kevin waved his hand: "It's not that I want to save you, but I think this world won't let people stay out of trouble. Ambitious people are waiting for the opportunity, and the strongest person of the previous era will also be one of the targets."

"I look forward to that future, the future where you have to make a choice. Overturn this world and establish a new order. You and your son will be able to continue traveling as adventurers, and your hometown will also see real changes."

"The power of one person is limited. Change and dreams cannot be achieved by force alone. So... I look forward to your changes."

After saying that, Kevin disappeared directly onto the deck of the Moby Dick.

Whitebeard sat back in the big chair, frowning as he pondered over what Kevin had just said.

Roger surrendered and was executed, Golden Lion went to Marinford alone and was imprisoned in the city, and a few years ago he cut off his legs and escaped...

Perhaps this world really won't allow an old guy like him to continue to stay out of trouble.

But so what?

Although his health is getting worse, he is happy every day. When he brings the treasures back to his hometown, the children's smiles are genuine.

That... is enough.

If there really comes a day like that in the future, it would not be a bad idea to find a good home for these sons.

"Kulala...kids! It's time for the party!"

Amidst loud laughter, Marco and the others came back.

On the deck, everyone was looking for Kevin.

"What are you laughing at? Thatch, the party is about to start!"

As a chef, Thatch looked around and said, "Dad, where is the gentleman from the Revolutionary Army?"

Whitebeard glanced at the wine jar and said, "I left. I agreed to his request. He said he was annoyed with you rookies, so he teleported away."

Thatch stared at his father: "So he didn't leave anything behind?"

Marco on the side said solemnly: "That guy shouldn't be such a person. Since Dad agreed to his request, shouldn't he leave something behind as a moral obligation?"

While Marco was not paying attention, Whitebeard gulped down a bowl of wine.

Marco sighed helplessly watching this scene: "Dad, you should know that since the light ball can heal your hidden injuries, we will get it no matter what." Whitebeard glared at him: "Do you think I am someone who doesn't listen to the doctor's advice? Send it over tomorrow. Didn't you see the dart on the mast?"

These words made everyone's expression change drastically, and they cheered with smiles.

"Banquet banquet!"

"Celebrating Dad's good health!"

"Captain Thatch, it's been a whole night and a whole day. I'm so hungry!"

"Drink! Sing! Celebrate!"

"For daddy!"

"For the Whitebeard Pirates!"

……

Amid the noise, Sachi ran into the kitchen just as happily, followed by a string of helpers.

After turning into a diamond, Joz called the newcomers and helped them carry the wine to the deck.

Whitebeard laughed loudly without any restraint and quickly drank another big bowl. Marco next to him stretched out his hand but still did not try to persuade him.

Anyway, the gentleman from the revolutionary army will be here tomorrow, and my dad won’t die from drinking today given his physical condition, so it’s not a big problem.

"Marco."

"Dad."

"You know what? That guy is twenty-two years old. Um...almost twenty-three."

(#Д)
How can it be?
Marco felt a little confused. Although he expected that the gentleman would not be old, he did not expect that he was so much younger than him.

The bounty is 3.2 billion berries, and he is a high-ranking member of the Revolutionary Army and even one of its founders.

The world's top combat force is still running around for their dreams.

How could such a person... be only twenty-two years old?
"This is the only information that bastard is willing to reveal. Since he didn't tell you about it, it's naturally unimportant."

Whitebeard continued drinking: "Speaking of which, the baby at that time could only be the native inhabitants of the Valley of the Gods. The country was wiped out, and all the people were slaughtered as prey... national hatred, family feud, and the revenge of exterminating the whole family..."

At this moment, Whitebeard seemed to have a sense of destiny in his mind, if it was this kid who would eventually overthrow Mary Geoise.

……

At the same time, in the Marshal's office in Marinford.

In the Den Den Mushi connected to the New World G1 branch, Sakaski, who had just arrived, was giving a report.

"Can you confirm that the Whitebeard Pirates and the Cloaked Man are at war?"

Sakaski, who was imitating Den Den Mushi, looked a little unhappy, but still replied: "It was indeed them. And the deserted island that was originally here... disappeared."

For a moment, Zhan Guo's glasses almost fell on the table.

This really made him too nervous. Destroying an island and making an island disappear are two completely different concepts!
The Demon-Slaying Order can destroy an island, such as O'Hara in the West Sea a few years ago, but it can never make an island disappear, even if the island is just a small deserted island.

"disappear?!"

Zhan Guo's voice suddenly rose: "Even though Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit can easily shatter a small island, it doesn't mean it disappears, Sakaski!"

Sakaski was also full of lava at the moment, and he responded directly after hearing this: "The bastard from the Revolutionary Army seems to have a stronger power to control fire. According to the surveillance of the G1 branch, even though we are far away for fear of being affected, we can still see the huge column of fire rising into the sky."

"If that's all, then the ability of the Flame-Flame Fruit can do it, but the other party is obviously not the user of the Flame-Flame Fruit!"

"The sea surrounding the deserted island that originally existed was all boiling and evaporating. The huge amount of steam rising made it impossible for the G1 branch's navy to see clearly. They could only know that the last nine pillars of fire merged and produced continuous explosions."

"It wasn't until the force of the vibration shattered the flames and mist that they saw that Whitebeard was injured! Do you know what this means, Marshal Sengoku?"

"The deserted island was not wiped out. Instead, it was shattered under the nine pillars of fire and burned into charcoal. It was then shattered again into charcoal slag and sank to the bottom of the sea!"

"There are still waves on the entire sea level, but there is no trace of a deserted island. The burning sensation has not dissipated. The temperature is above my lava, and much higher!"

In a series of roars, Zhan Guo also figured out the reason why the deserted island disappeared directly.

"Sakaski, the temperature of the cloaked man's flame is nearly 6,000 degrees. This is information we have known for a long time. But this is the first time that the explosive flame can produce a violent explosion."

Sakaski looked unhappy when he was pointed out.

During the O'Hara period, this bastard used his abilities to block himself.

This long sword is clearly flame, but its temperature far exceeds that of flame, which makes the ability of the lava fruit a joke.

Looking at the new weapons on his arms, Sakaski clenched his fists and said, "He's the one who ran fast this time!"

The Den Den Mushi's lifelike imitation made Sengoku frown.

In fact, he doesn’t care as much about the attitude of the Revolutionary Army as the pirates do, and with that guy’s ability to teleport, what can Sakaski do even if he doesn’t run?

"Alright. You continue to keep an eye on the Whitebeard Pirates. I will report the details to the World Government."

The Den Den Mushi was hung up directly, without giving the marshal any face at all.

However, Zhan Guo didn't care. He rubbed his forehead and began to think about how to report.

Fishman Island is Whitebeard's territory in terms of pirates, and the location of the deserted island is not far from the floating new world on Fishman Island.

So... the cloaked man went to Fishman Island?
Although there were murlocs among the slaves freed on Marijoa, it would be foolish to send the murlocs back to Fishman Island.

At this time, the door of the marshal's office was kicked open.

"Warring States! I want a vacation! A vacation! A vacation!"

There is no one else in the entire Marine Headquarters who can kick the door and yell like that, except for that one dog-headed old bastard.

Zhan Guo resisted the urge to use the Great Buddha Shock Wave and said, "Not allowed!"

Garp picked his nose and said, "I just came to inform you. Whether you agree or not, I will go back to the East China Sea for vacation."

"I have to go back to see my grandson. Do you think I'm the same as you? I'm still alone at my age. I only have an adopted son, and he doesn't seem to be around."

With his eyes closed, Zhan Guo almost broke the pen in his hand: "Old bastard! Do you know how busy I am now? If you were willing to be promoted to admiral, do you know how much pressure it would put on the pirates, you bastard!"

"Borsalino is investigating the Marijoa incident, Sakaski is guarding the New World, and you are the only one who brought up this bastard disciple who is exactly like you! Where's Kuzan?"

Garp scratched his head and said, "I saw it at the abandoned warship this morning. Today's training is over, so it should be basking in the sun at this point."
-
_-#
"Fuck off!"

"Ok."

Garp ate the senbei with the hand he had just used to pick his nose, walked out of the office without looking back, and headed straight for the port.

Although it should be fine to entrust Luffy to Bell-mère, he still has to be careful so that he doesn't go astray.

That careless son ran off to form a revolutionary army. I don’t know if he will be able to have another child in the future. At least I have left a grandson for myself, and I can’t let him grow up in a crooked way.

This time when I go back, I must be under the iron fist of love and make becoming an excellent navy my life goal!
And Ace...

Thinking of this grandson, Garp felt that the senbei in his hand was not as fragrant anymore.

His thinking has become deviant, although in his opinion he has done nothing wrong and has not inherited the will of his biological father.

But that road... is even more difficult.

"call……"

After sighing, Garp carefully put away the senbei.
