"puff!"
The sound of a long knife entering the body made everyone present except Crocodile widen their eyes.
"Old boss!!?"
The first thing Crocodile's boss did after waking up was to commit suicide by cutting his own neck with a knife?
"Ahhhhh!"
Some people even screamed in terror.
The terrifying man who was able to fight the most powerful man in the world and end up with a draw actually committed suicide in front of them!
Why?
All kinds of doubts, panic, and disbelief flashed through their minds. At this moment, the subordinates felt like electricity was flowing all over their bodies, and they couldn't believe this scene at all.
However, something even more incredible happened.
The knife was undoubtedly extremely sharp. The moment it cut through the neck, it easily cut off the skin, flesh and tissue that connected the neck and skull.
Immediately afterwards, Xia Le's head flew into the sky.
For anyone, such a scene would be enough to make him die.
But only one second passed, and everyone saw that the head flying in the air suddenly disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, a head grew again on Xia Le's neck.
At the same time, his appearance, which was bruised and swollen just a moment ago, has returned to normal, and even the horrific fatal injuries on his body have all dissipated.
In the blink of an eye, an unharmed Xia Le appeared in front of everyone.
"this?!"
"Boss is okay!"
The men looked even more horrified.
Compared to being seriously injured after the war and recovering after a period of training, the scene before him was even more frightening!
Hey Hey hey! This is simply a monster!
"A very interesting battle!"
Xia Le chuckled softly, his eyes twinkling.
The physical strength and energy were completely exhausted, but there was still no winner. In terms of pure strength, he seems to be on the same level as Whitebeard.
Of course, this is based on the fact that he did not use the BUG ability.
Suddenly, a sigh came from Xia Le's mouth again.
"Maybe if we meet again, we'll be on top!"
"When the time comes, I will give you a ride myself!"
Muttering, Xia Le slowly closed his eyes.
The wounds on his body and the physical exertion were secondary, but the mental exhaustion made it difficult for him to make any move at this time.
Crocodile blinked and looked at the officer who was sleeping on the pillow, with a slight arc at the corner of his mouth.
"really!"
"You are still stronger!"
Then, he turned around again and looked at the men in front of him with cold eyes.
"It's best to forget everything you saw!"
"otherwise!"
——
Aboard Moby Dick.
Marco and others, with nervous and worried faces, gathered around the huge bed, while the ship's doctor was busy sweating profusely.
"So far, this is the first time I've seen dad get so seriously injured!"
"Is that Xia Le so powerful?"
Everyone was silent because that man was indeed terrifyingly tyrannical.
"A head-on confrontation with no resistance and dodge."
"Thank you for letting me make such a stupid decision."
The ship's doctor snorted coldly.
After working for a long time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, my father is now in his prime and can still get through it. However, it is inevitable that such a serious injury will leave sequelae.
After a while, Whitebeard slowly opened his eyes, looked at the bottle beside him and his sons who cared about him, and let out a loud laugh.
"Ku la la la la la!"
"Why are you so worried and nervous? I'm not dead yet!"
After a pause, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"I'm just a little tired, so I'll just squint for a while!"
Marco and others were still worried, because the other party's injuries were almost all reflected on his face.
"Dad, you!"
Whitebeard shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry about me."
"If you fall down in such a battle, then I will."
"You don't deserve to be called Whitebeard!"
Then, he sighed again, his eyes excited.
"What a fun battle!"
"Since Roger's death, there has never been a war like this!"
"Obviously he is a marine, but he is so powerful!"
As he said that, Whitebeard laughed again.
"It really makes my blood boil!"
The people around him looked at each other, but when they saw the energetic appearance of their father, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, the ship's doctor treated Whitebeard carefully, and the latter was calm and calm, letting Jozi prepare the food and Marco to bring drinks.
"Dad, your body is still seriously injured!"
Marco said helplessly.
"Get out! Such a small injury will not affect you at all!"
"In every battle between me and Roger, the injuries will never be smaller than this one!"
Whitebeard glared.
Then, he took another painful breath.
"Next time, I will definitely win!"
"This time I just drank too much before the battle!"
He muttered, his white beard grinning.
It hurts, my whole body really hurts, but my heart feels extremely happy.
Unlike Xia Le, after taking a short rest, he was still full of energy and energy, and even felt that he could continue to fight.
This abundant spirit cannot but be astonished.
Time passed slowly, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
The war that shocked the world was only known to a few people. The results of the battle were only revealed today.
Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.
"A draw?"
"Xia Le actually fought to a draw with him."
The first time he heard the news, Warring States was stunned.
But soon, he let out a sigh of relief.
“It’s already pretty good!”
"After all, that's Whitebeard!"
He sighed and said, a touch of excitement and excitement appeared on Zeng Guo's face.
There is no doubt that Xia Le's combat prowess is at the pinnacle of the navy. Most importantly, he is still young.
As this group of navy gradually gets older, Xia Le will become the navy's strongest combat force in the near future.
"It's a pity that his relationship with the headquarters is now."
Sighing, Seng Guo looked regretful again.
Otherwise, if Xia Le can completely obey the orders of the headquarters, the navy can easily suppress the era of great pirates that is gradually emerging.
It might even be possible to counterattack the second half of the Great Channel and destroy the Whitebeard Pirates.
"It can only be repaired slowly with the help of time."
Said softly, Sengoku's eyes flickered.
He was still very hopeful about this. After all, strictly speaking, Xia Le's faction in the navy was naturally similar to his.
"What you call justice will be realized after I take office."
Warring States thought secretly in his heart.
It must be said that after the O'Hara incident, many people in the Navy had their own thoughts on it.
Morally speaking, most of the navy even supported Xia Le's approach, but on the surface, they could not completely fall out with the World Government and had to maintain the dignity of both parties.
Who among those who joined the navy was not full of ambition, justice and ideals?
But as time goes by, reality ruthlessly extinguishes the dreams of the past.
On the other side, Marie Joa.
"This battle was only spread in a small area and did not alarm the world."
"Xia Le's fighting prowess cannot be ignored. He can even fight to a draw with that man."
"I heard that he has made Xihai a monolithic entity and treats the Xihai Navy Branch as his own private army!"
"What a brave guy!"
"So, what exactly are you going to do with him?"
Five old voices came out one after another, echoing in the empty palace.
"The four-year world conference will be held next year."
"Maybe it's time for us to meet him in person!"
The Legal Martial God, Saint Topman Wuchuli said in a deep voice.
"You want to find out his purpose?"
Environmental Martial God, Markas Maz Saint said lightly.
"This is a good idea, and the world conference is also a good reason."
"If we bring him into Marigio, we can respond at any time based on his performance."
"Recruitment or destruction will be completed here!"
God of Science and Defense, the Holy Path of Jaygolusia Satan.
"Then do as you are told, send a meeting invitation to Cobra in Alabasta, and ask him to bring Xia Le!"
"Then, we can take a good look at this navy, which has caused quite a stir in recent years!"
Financial Martial God, Saint Izanbalon V. Nasshoulang said coldly.
The five quickly reached an agreement and discussed a detailed plan.
For Xia Le, they gradually realized that it was an unavoidable problem and must be solved as soon as possible.
——
"Then, farewell, Crocodile!"
Xia Le stretched.
"Thank you for forgiving me for the stupid mistake I made, I promise it won't happen again!"
Crocodile said solemnly.
"Do your part."
"Who can be without ambition when they are young?"
"but."
Xia Le smiled and looked forward.
"Now that we are aware of the gap, we must continue to work hard to become stronger!"
"In this world, only the strong have the right to speak!"
Crocodile was startled and nodded heavily: "Yes!"
"Our future enemies may be stronger than you imagine!"
Xia Le said casually.
The next second, his body flashed and he rushed high into the sky, turning into a bolt of lightning and moving away instantly.
Crocodile stood there quietly for a long time before exhaling.
"A more powerful enemy?"
He murmured, his eyes extremely solemn.
At this time, the subordinate behind him asked curiously: "Boss, where are we going next?"
When Crocodile heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he turned around suddenly.
"Send you to hell!"
Grains of sand surged out and swept everyone in front of them in an instant.
In just two or three breaths, all the pirates turned into mummies and fell to the ground.
"I hate talkative guys!"
Lighting a cigar, Crocodile said calmly.
If he hadn't been so talkative that day, how could his superiors have personally come from the West Sea and gone through that battle to wipe his ass.
"Baroque Studio."
"I'm definitely going to build it up."
