Times are like the sea.
It is magnificent and has many ups and downs.
Old people pass away, new people are born, and reincarnation takes place.
There is no eternal king in this world, and there is no eternal strongest. Time will give every strong person the ending he deserves.
As the saying goes, who in the world is immortal? Time flies by, and your appearance grows old quickly. No matter how magnificent you are, the heroes of the world will be nothing more than a piece of clay after all.
Therefore, times are changing and the world is changing.
Only change is eternal.
——
New World, Moby Dick.
A stern, solemn, and tense atmosphere filled the air silently. Figures that were originally relaxed suddenly stood up and looked forward with shocked eyes.
"That kind of dragon head is a red-haired ship!"
"Why is that man here?"
"Quick, get ready for battle!"
"Although he is a man who only became the emperor six years ago, he cannot be underestimated at all!"
"······"
A nervous voice came, and the fleet in front suddenly dispersed, and then a red ship approached, causing the ship to tremble slightly.
Then, a figure walked down slowly.
"clatter!"
The dull footsteps made the wooden steps creak, making the entire Whitebeard Pirates become solemn.
Because, when the second foot of this figure landed on the ground, the void rippled.
"Buzz!"
A surging, majestic, domineering, and suffocating terrifying momentum suddenly burst out, spread, and swept the entire sea area in an instant.
Sitting on the chair, the tall figure with a crescent-shaped white beard, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he laughed: "You are still as domineering as ever! Red hair!"
"I have only seen this man's domineering attitude in one person before!"
Foil Bista said solemnly.
"clatter!"
Footsteps sounded again, and the overbearing aura spread out like ocean waves, causing the younger crew members on the ship to groan, their eyes turning white, and they slowly fell to the ground.
"Hey, young guy, lean back!"
"You can't bear this guy's domineering attitude!"
Marco shouted, jumped slightly and sat on the edge of the boat, looking at the figure approaching.
"clatter!"
There was another sound of footsteps, and the strong impact of the momentum made the walls of the ship crack and shatter.
This scene also made all the pirates present solemn.
Such terrifying domineering cultivation is rare in the world. Only those at the top can achieve it.
Of all the people on board the Moby Dick, only the old man with a crescent beard sitting on the chair still looked calm.
After a while, a man with one arm, red hair, and a Western sword on his waist came slowly, dragging a jar of wine with his hand.
After placing the jar of wine in front of White Beard, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at the old man in front of him.
"Ku la la la la la!"
"Even if you come here with a jar of wine, I won't think that you have good intentions!"
"Red hair, Shanks!!"
Whitebeard said with a laugh.
"I'm not here for war!"
Shanks said in a deep voice.
As soon as these words came out, Marco and the others around them all had their eyes slightly narrowed, but they also breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
If you want to become an emperor on this sea, you will naturally have wars and fights with other emperors, so that you have the qualifications to become emperor.
Therefore, they all know the strength of red-haired Shanks.
Known as the unassailable Iron Wall Pirates above the world, the Iron Wall Pirates themselves and their crews are powerful ruthless characters and should not be underestimated.
"Oh? If it's not for the war, then why are you here?"
Whitebeard said doubtfully.
"Your second division captain, Fire Fist Ace, seems to be chasing Blackbeard Marshall Teach, right?"
Red-haired Shanks said solemnly.
"so what?"
Whitebeard said calmly.
"Recall him. You may have wrong estimates about the man named Blackbeard!"
As he said that, Shanks's expression became a little solemn.
"This doesn't seem to have anything to do with you!"
When Whitebeard heard this, he said coldly.
Then, he slowly stood up and looked down at the one-armed man in front of him.
"Seeing you reminds me of the aching injuries on my body!"
"To interfere in the affairs of my Whitebeard Pirates, do you think that becoming the Four Emperors qualifies you to do so?"
"The apprentice boy on Roger's ship!!"
Shanks looked serious and still insisted on his idea: "Ace will lose to Blackbeard!"
"This may be the foreplay to cause great changes in the world!"
Whitebeard didn't care at all about these words, or he didn't believe them. After he laughed loudly, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
"I already told you!"
"It's not your turn to care about the Whitebeard Pirates!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the naginata Congunkiri in his hand suddenly swung out.
The void collapsed at this moment, and a strong wind blew towards Shanks' face.
His eyes flashed suddenly, and the Western sword at his waist suddenly unsheathed and struck forward.
"boom!"
In an instant, the two long knives collided together, and the entire Moby Dick buzzed and trembled.
The robes worn by the two people were blown by the strong wind and fluttered carelessly. Above his head, the sky shrouded in dark clouds suddenly flashed with lightning and split into two halves.
"The sky has been cut open!"
Some pirates looked up at the sky and shouted in horror.
Marco, Jozi and others all looked at the two people fighting with solemn expressions. They had seen this scene before.
But that man has disappeared from the world for a long time.
"Whirring whirring!"
A strong wind blew over Moby-Dick.
Suddenly, Whitebeard withdrew his knife, stood up, and stared at the red-haired man in front of him.
"If it's just for this matter, then you can leave!"
Shanks returned the Western sword to its sheath, then sat cross-legged and asked Marco and others next to him for two bowls.
"Of course it's not just this!"
"Compared to what's going on between your second division captain and Blackbeard, what's more important is another man!"
His eyes were downcast, he tilted the wine jar and poured drinks for the two of them.
Whitebeard also sat in front of him with a puzzled expression.
"Another man?"
Shanks did not show off, but said in a deep voice: "The navy named Xia Le!"
"He appears in this world again!"
A strong wind suddenly blew, and Moby Dick fell into silence for a while.
"What? That man appears again?!"
Jozi shouted in shock.
Marco, Bista and other captains all had solemn expressions, and even sweat broke out on their foreheads when the man's figure flashed across their minds.
"Xia Le?"
A flash of memory appeared on Whitebeard's face, and the battle with the opponent clearly emerged in his mind at this time.
"But I haven't seen him for a long time!"
After a pause, his tone was low.
"That's a pretty formidable opponent!"
Shanks naturally saw the look in the other person's eyes, and had a completely new judgment on Xia Le's strength.
"If there is chaos in the world in the future, we will definitely have something to do with this man!"
"As a navy, this is quite heavy news for pirates in the world!"
Whitebeard raised his eyebrows, raised the wine in the bowl, drank it all in one gulp, and then said with a smile: "So? Red-haired boy."
"what do you want to say in the end?"
The red-haired Shanks drank the drink in one gulp, then stared at the old man in front of him and spoke slowly.
"White beard."
"Let's join forces!"
"Boom!!!"
Above the sky, a bolt of lightning pierced the clouds.
Everyone on the Moby Dick felt as if they were struck by lightning and fell into silence for a long time. In fact, many of them had expressions of shock and disbelief on their faces.
Even the look on Whitebeard's face froze and fell silent.
"Ku la la la la la!"
After a while, White Beard suddenly laughed, and he looked down at the red-haired man in front of him.
"Boy, did I hear you correctly?"
The voice suddenly dropped and became extremely heavy.
"You mean joining forces?"
The red-haired man nodded, his voice sonorous and powerful: "Yes, we are joining forces!"
"With the current strength of the navy, only by joining forces can we cope with the coming storm and tsunami!"
"This is a major event that concerns you and my two pirate groups, and even all pirates in the entire sea!"
"It's even related to the stability of the world!"
Whitebeard's eyes narrowed slightly, and he seemed to be lost in thought, thinking about the meaning of the other party's words.
After a long time, a deep voice came out.
"I have no interest in the world or other pirates."
"As for, you said it's about two pirate groups?"
"It's not your turn to worry about the Whitebeard Pirates."
As he spoke, a smile appeared on his face.
"Does the mere name of Xia Le scare you so much that you tremble?"
"Red hair, I thought you were the new Yonko, the most domineering man in the world."
"But now it seems that he is still the trainee boy on Roger's ship!"
There was ridicule in the words, but Shanks didn't care at all. Instead, his face remained solemn and his eyes were fixed on the old man with the white beard in front of him.
"Don't underestimate the storm that will sweep across the sea next!"
"White beard!!"
Whitebeard's pupils shrank and he fell silent again.
After a long time, he said calmly.
"If there is really a need to join forces with you."
"Let's talk about it then!"
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Shanks' face.
Although he didn't get a positive answer, with Whitebeard's words, this trip was finally done.
——
The Sander did not stop at the Capital of the Seven Waters, but headed straight for Marineland, the navy headquarters.
On the third day, after emergency treatment, Rob Lucci, who was in good physical condition, finally woke up and turned around.
Lying on the hospital bed, when he opened his eyes, the first man he saw was Xia Le.
Suddenly, his eyes shrank, but soon became calm.
"I appreciate you."
"Rob Lucci!"
Xia Le said with a smile.
"You will become my subordinate, an extremely sharp long knife."
"Fight for true justice in this world!"
Rob Lucci looked calm and said slowly.
"It's my pleasure!"
"Sir!"
