37 Ch 37: Whitebeard Pirates

The news tgat Crocodile was defeated by the Sullivan Kingdom quickly reached the ear of the World Government.

In the meantime, they were able to suppress the news from being spread out to the world.

After all, the news of a Shicibukai attacking a World Government member nation and being defeated in the process could really make the world Question the World Government.

One was about the role of Shicibukai, and the other was about the Shicibukai's strength.

Time flew when no one noticed it, and now it had been about six months since the Crocodile's incident.

Nonetheless, today we will not be discussing Cade or about Sullivan Kingdom.

New World. -

The sky was sunny, blue sky decorated with white clouds, the sea was calm, and the birds were flying and singing. A pirate ship that looked like a giant whale sailed on the sea.

On the deck of Moby Dick, the Whitebeard Pirates have their daily banquet.

Whitebeard himself sitting on the main seat with a big cup filled with liquor. At the age of 71, he has long gone beyond his prime. Even if he is powerful, he can't stand the erosion of time.

All the accumulated wounds and sickness had begun to hamper his body, and now he could not go a day without medication. There was even a special team of medical staff to take care of him in the Whitebeard Pirates.

But even that didn't stop the world's strongest man from drinking.

After all, today was a joyous moment of the Whitebeard Regime.

After a long time, Ace eventually succumbed and decided to join the Whitebeard Pirates.

Whitebeard looked at his so-called "family", and his heart began to grow warm.

In front of him is the captain of the 16th division of the Whitebeard Pirates and the elites of the Whitebeard Pirates.

They sat cross-legged, with food and wine in front of them, they drank and had fun, and the atmosphere was lively and harmonious.

"Drink...haha..."

"Believe me, I will make all of you drunk today!"

Ace looked at the brothers around him with a smile on his face. He really enjoyed his time here.

As the son of the most wicked man on earth, the Pirate King Gol D Roger, he has always longed for such a life.

A life surrounded by a family which would not care about his lineage. And all of this was all thanks to this man.

Looking at Whitebeard, who mustered his usual laugh. Ace's eyes started to go a bit wet, and his nose turned a bit sour.

He tried his best to hold it, but at this moment, he was noticed by the other captain.

Immediately, their eyes turned funny as they had the idea to tease Ace.

" What?" Ace snorted. He quickly wiped out the tears coming off from his eyes.

" Well, it's okay, Ace. If you want to cry, then come to this big brother!!"

" Hahahaha, Ace is still young, so it is okay to cry!"

" Bastard! I'll fight you!!"

The atmosphere turned rowdy. But waves of laughter still filled the entire deck, as if the fight was just a child quarrel.

Marco landed next to Whitebeard, and taking a sip of the wine, he said:

" Well, it's really okay to cry, Ace. Isn't that right, oyaji?"

" Gurarararara, sure! We are all family, Ace. There's no need for you to be shy. You can always tell us what you had in your mind!"

Whitebeard's words were immediately greeted by the laughter of the others. As for Ace, he could only put his head down and blush. Though on the inside, he felt very warm with Whitebeard's words.

However, the next thing that happened almost made Ace vomit.

" Hey, what is this, Ace?"

Jozu, who stood next to Ace found a small round thing dropping from Ace's pocket.

" Eh, wait Jozu, that thing!!"

Ace imagined all the time he was using it with Makino, and his face indescribably turned red.

Nonetheless, Ace's words were a bit too late. Before he could even finish his words, Jozu's hand had already touched the round thing, and he unconsciously activated it.

Jozu's consciousness was attracted to the small round thing, and not long after.

" Bastard Ace, you have such a good thing. Why have you never told me!"

Jozu's face was red, and his breathing was harsh. But there was that wretched smile on his face that immediately made everyone else also interested.

" Hoho, then let me try it next!"

The next was Marco. He turned into his Phoenix form and snatched the round thing from Jozu. And just like Jozu, in just a few minutes, his expression turned wretched, and he also cursed at Ace.

This cycle happened almost ten times before the small round orb was eventually picked up by Whitebeard.

" Hmm?" Whitebeard's eyes narrow, looking at the small round thing on his hand full of interest.

" Ace, can you tell me what this is?"

" Well, this is a gift from my friend Oyaji. With this thing, it could create an illusion to help us meet our distance or even pass away family." Ace hid a few specific details, as he was a bit embarrassed.

But who would have thought that because of his pride, a huge disaster would soon fall upon Whitebeard Pirates?

" Gurarara, such a magnificent thing. In that case, I would also want to try it. That Roger, it had been such a long time since I last met him."

" Wait, oyaji!"

Ace just realized how his words have misled Whitebeard into one of the most fucked up misunderstandings. However, it was all too late.

The next moment, before Ace could even explain anything, Whitebeard's consciousness was already pulled into the small round orb.

Everyone who had tasted the power of the strange orb immediately paled. And even Ace was trying to run away.

But not even five seconds had passed, Whitebeard's consciousness had returned, and his face was full of black lines.

" Ace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
