Chapter 161: Convincing Rayleigh to Participate in the Battle of Marineford
"Brother Kavi, why are you interested in coming to my place!"
Rayleigh held a bottle of wine, poured a glass for Kavi, and asked curiously.
"I'm just bored, so I came out for a walk. What? Don't you welcome me?" Kavi teased.
Rayleigh waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, brother, you are welcome to visit anytime!"
With fewer and fewer friends, Rayleigh wishes Kavi would come to drink with him more often...
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Let me ask you, did you know that Ace was going to be publicly executed?"
Kavi's fingers tapped the table slowly, making a thudding sound, and he looked at Rayleigh, wanting to see any changes in his expression.
However, Rayleigh's expression did not change much, and he was only curious about Kavi.
"Why are you asking me this, Brother Kavi? As for Ace... I know that he is Whitebeard's godson. It is said that the Whitebeard Pirates are preparing to rescue Ace recently."
Rayleigh's eyes flashed with curiosity as he spoke, "Do you think that Whitebeard can rescue Ace? It is said that the navy has made full preparations this time, with four admirals, 100,000 navy soldiers, Garp and Sengoku in the battle, Whitebeard will not put himself in trouble, will he..."
The current strength of the navy cannot be underestimated. Whitebeard only has an old man who is already in his twilight years. Rayleigh does not believe that Whitebeard can rescue Ace.
The corners of Kavi's mouth slightly raised, and a hint of ridicule appeared, "I'm not exaggerating, but Whitebeard, that old guy from the old times, definitely can't beat the navy."
"But... I don't think he wants to leave alive."
Rayleigh frowned slightly and murmured:
"Could it be that..."
There was a gleam in his eyes, and then he burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, he's worthy of being called the strongest man in the world. Even his death is so tragic and heroic."
"But, Brother Kavi, when it comes to the old days, we are all the same!"
Don't think that just because you look young, you can deny that you are from the old times. Face the reality! You are also an old thing...
Kavi glanced at him expressionlessly. He didn't care about Rayleigh's reminder. After all, he wouldn't bother with an old man from the old times who only knew how to envy.
"Do you want to join in the fun?"
"What's the excitement? The battle between Whitebeard and the navy? Don't joke. I'm an old man who has finally retired. I don't want to be put on a bounty by the navy again." Rayleigh shook his head like a rattle.
"Just watch the show..."
Rayleigh drank in silence. Although the relationship between the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates was very good, the Roger Pirates had long been disbanded.
Roger had worked hard to earn their current leisurely life, and he didn't want to disrupt it.
Hearing this, Kavi grinned. Don't want to get involved? You don't have to get involved if you don't want to? I'm going to drag you into this...
"I suggest you go and see the scene when the time comes. There will be surprises."
"Huh?" Rayleigh looked at Kavi in surprise.
"Brother Kawi, you don't want to join in the fun, do you? Aren't you most afraid of becoming famous? Do you want to be targeted by the navy?"
"Tsk, I'm just joining in the fun. Can the Navy give me a bounty?" Kavi said disdainfully.
Rayleigh couldn't believe that such a coward like Kavi would actually want to join in the fun, his eyes were full of disbelief.
"Brother Kavi, you are not Brother Kavi, right? Tell me, who are you? Get off Brother Kavi now, or I will be rude to you!"
As he said this, Rayleigh looked serious and was ready to take down Kavi. He didn't believe that a coward who traveled around the Red Earth Continent with his face covered and came back to put all the blame on others would make such a decision!
Kawi was speechless and spread his hands, "Are you going or not? If not, I'll go by myself."
"No! I definitely won't go!" Don't try to fool me!
Rayleigh refused decisively without any hesitation. He was no longer at the age where he liked to join in the fun, and his retirement life was good...
"Well, then I have to go by myself." Kavi showed a helpless expression.
"If it weren't for the agreement with Roger, I wouldn't want to go..."
"Huh?!" Rayleigh suddenly stopped what he was doing. "What did you just say? The agreement with Roger?"
His eyes were fixed on Kavi, full of curiosity. He seemed to remember that Roger had looked for Kavi once before he died, but Roger did not tell them what they had said.
"Ahahaha... What agreement with Roger? Rayleigh, did you hear it wrong?"
Kavi sipped his wine, his eyes wandering, as if what he just said was not what he said.
"Hey, brother Kavi, don't hide it from me, tell me what's going on..."
Rayleigh looked anxious. The truth was right in front of him, but he couldn't grasp it, which made him a little crazy.
"Haha, you want to know?"
Rayleigh nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, brother Kavi, please tell me now."
His face was full of desire. This guy Roger had actually hidden something from everyone back then, which made him have to be humble in front of Kavi now.
Kavi looked at the wine glass in front of him with a joking expression, "If you want to know, just go and watch the excitement. You will know when you go. Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you don't go, you may never know..."
Of course, Kavi was just trying to scare him. Even if he didn't go to the scene, he would know after the Battle of Marineford that Ace was Roger's son.
But Kavi insisted on dragging him to the scene. He didn't believe that he would be able to watch the show at ease when the Navy announced Ace's identity.
The Battle of Marineford was such a lively scene. There has never been such a grand scene since then, so Kavi naturally wanted it to be even more lively.
Such a large-scale war is rare in the pirate world. Cherish it well, there may be no more wars in the future...
"Damn it! Brother Kavi, is there anyone like you?!"
I agreed not to go, but you're doing this, how can I resist?!
This damn Kavi actually used such a shameless method!
Kavi spread his hands, "It's not like I want to know anyway?"
"Okay, okay! I'll go! It's okay for me to go!"
Furious, Rayleigh angrily drank a large glass of wine. Isn't it just to watch the show? He went to the scene to watch. As long as he didn't take action, the navy couldn't do anything to him, right?
Thinking of this, Rayleigh's mood finally eased a little.
"Oh, I almost forgot, Luffy and the others are here. Brother Kavi, I have something to do, so I'll leave first!"
Rayleigh slapped his head and disappeared in the tavern. I hope Luffy and the others were not captured by Kizaru...
Kavi looked at the hurried Rayleigh and shook his head, "Why are you in such a hurry? Anyway, Ahuizotl...oh no, it's Kizaru who has a high level of awareness. He has a good grasp of the ways of the world."
Thinking of Kizaru's personality, Kavi probably thinks he is still happily paddling...
