Chapter 448 The person who is placed with hope! (Two in one)

The news of the arrest of Whitebeard, the so-called "World's Strongest Man", shocked the whole world.

After hearing the news, the pirates in the Four Seas and the first half of the Grand Line were shocked and subconsciously restrained their actions.

After all, even Whitebeard was captured by the so-called "New Navy", and the Navy Headquarters had more time and energy to focus on these "little minions".

Although most pirates in the world began to restrain their behavior after hearing the news of Whitebeard's arrest, those big pirates active in the New World did not feel sad for Whitebeard for a moment after learning the news. of.

After losing Whitebeard, the Whitebeard Pirates were on the verge of collapse. The wealthy and peaceful islands controlled by the Whitebeard Pirates have become targets for many pirates.

Creatures like pirates will choose to take the risk no matter what kind of risk it is when the actual benefits are great enough.

Some large fleets began to send their men to tentatively plunder the islands controlled by the Whitebeard Pirates, testing the remaining strength of the Whitebeard Pirates.

After the Moby Dick sailed away from the waters of all nations, it quickly headed towards Wano Country relying on Kozuki Oden's life card. Without Whitebeard to lead them, they urgently need a "talker" to lead them forward.

Kozuki Oden is the "younger brother" recognized by Whitebeard. He was also the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates. He is the new "leader" recognized by the crew and can continue to unite their group.

On the way to Wano Country, captains such as Marco and Bista began to send messages to their subordinates scattered around the new world, asking them to assemble.

The gathering place is at Whitebeard's hometown - Sphinx Island.

During this time, Marco and other captains would receive information about attacks on their territory from time to time, but the current Whitebeard Pirates had no intention of caring about these things other than complaining about it.

For them, the top priority is to gather strength and rescue Whitebeard.

It is difficult for a vacuum to exist in something like power.

When one person in power disappears, another person in power quickly takes over.

Some islands in the new world that were no longer protected by the Whitebeard Pirates soon fell into chaos. The pirates also had some fights in order to compete for resources and territory.

It's just that this kind of thing has nothing to do with Whitebeard.

Sunlight shines through the small transom above the prison and into the room.

This was a small prison built entirely from sea-floor stone. Whitebeard's hands were handcuffed to the wall, and he woke up slowly.

Glancing around the surroundings, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the white-bearded face, and his eyes fell on the red-haired young man sitting on the ground in front of him:

"Why didn't you just kill me?"

Whitebeard opened his mouth, his voice was a little hoarse. When he asked the red-haired young man in front of him, Whitebeard also quickly lowered his head and scanned the wounds on his body, and found that several fatal wounds on his body had been completely healed.

At this time, apart from being a little weak due to excessive blood loss and hunger, he had already returned from the gate of hell.

"You still have some value."

"And it would be too cruel to let someone like you die in obscurity like this."

Seeing Whitebeard wake up, Jiguo Yuanyi, who was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed and concentrating, slowly opened his eyes and showed a gentle smile.

The sun shone through the skylight on Jiguoyuan's face. At this time, Jiguoyuan's whole person showed a very calm and gentle temperament.

This is very different from the fierce Jiguoyuan in Whitebeard's impression.

"Yeah."

When Whitebeard heard Jiguo Enichi's words, he looked around the cell where he was imprisoned, and couldn't help but let out a sigh:

"A prison entirely made of sea-floor stone"

"Isn't it true that only the Navy Headquarters and the World Government have the processing technology for sea floor stone?"

"Did your new navy also get this technology?"

He has become a prisoner and is as smart as white beard. At this time, he also has predictions about his future. It was nothing more than a public execution.

At this time, there was nothing that Whitebeard couldn't bear to look away from. The tone of his conversation with Ji Guoyuan was not hysterical like that of a death row prisoner. Instead, he acted unusually calm. He even had time to be curious. Some of these are missing.

"You are on board the Dawn warship of our new navy."

"This ship was originally designed and built by Tom, the master craftsman of the Seven Waters City, when I became a general."

"One of the facilities on the ship was added by the Navy Headquarters."

"Of course there is Hailoushi Prison."

Jiguo Yuanyi and Baibeard were chatting like old friends for many years, and the atmosphere was calm and lively.

"Yeah?"

"Then the Navy Headquarters really suffered a huge loss."

"Not only are people like you kicked out of the Navy, but a warship like this is also thrown away."

"Dawn. What an interesting name."

Whitebeard chuckled and praised, feeling the slightly shaking ground, he knew that Jiguo Yuanyi did not lie to him.

"When are you going to kill me?"

When Whitebeard asked about the date of his death, there was some fluctuation in his eyes.

Even if he is facing the critical situation of life and death, he will inevitably be a little concerned.

"It's not up to me."

"I have contacted the Navy Headquarters and plan to exchange you for the bounty."

"Well, your bounty is quite high, which will be very helpful to our new navy."

Ji Guoyuan replied half-jokingly. When Whitebeard heard the news that Enichi Tsukuni was sending him to the Navy Headquarters, his pupils could not help but shrink, and he instantly understood Enichi Tsukuni's purpose.

Even without Whitebeard, the Whitebeard Pirates are still a giant.

Whitebeard knows the character and temperament of his sons very well. If those guys learn the news, they may plan to rob the prison.

If the Navy Headquarters really takes over him, it will also be on guard.

By then, there will be another battle. Tsukuni Enichi can not only use the headquarters to clean up the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates, but also use the White Corps to attract the energy of the Navy Headquarters and the World Government, so that they can free up their hands to do some things.

For example, gathering the islands controlled by the Whitebeard Pirates.

Kill two birds with one stone.

"You guy"

After understanding Jiguoyuanyi's purpose, Whitebeard was speechless for a moment.

He suddenly didn't know what to say. Although Ji Guoyuan had unparalleled strength, he still engaged in such "conspiracies".

Whitebeard has met too many strong men in his life, but he has met relatively few people like Enichi Jiguo.

Behind this talent, there is often an ambition that is unimaginable to others.

Whitebeard frowned. Although he looked down upon his own life and death, he was still very concerned about the safety of his sons.

He knew that once the Jiguoyuan plan went smoothly, his sons would probably suffer disaster.

Although he was secretly worried about his sons, Whitebeard, who was in jail, could do nothing.

Such a sense of powerlessness made Whitebeard feel in a daze.

"Whitebeard, cherish your last moments."

"Whatever you want to eat, just tell the guard. As long as it's not an excessive request, I can satisfy you."

With that said, Ji Guoyuan held the long knife in one hand and gently placed it on the ground, stood up slowly, turned around and left the cell.

Whitebeard did not answer. He was trying to think of a way to break the situation. He would never allow his sons to lose their lives because of his relationship.

There was a powerful enemy in the Navy Headquarters that made him have to be very alert!

After leaving the prison, Enichi Jikuni took out his personal phone bug and called Sengoku. When Enichi Jigoku revealed that he wanted to transfer Whitebeard to the Navy Headquarters in exchange for a bounty, he directly called Sengoku. shocked.

He did not expect that the New Navy actually planned to hand over Whitebeard. If the New Navy could execute Whitebeard on its own, the New Navy's popularity would rise to a higher level and it could easily suppress the "useless" Navy. Headquarters.

Surprise, huge surprise came to my mind.

However, the Warring States Period was the Warring States Period after all, and he, who was once known as the "Wise General", was not the kind of person who easily gets hot-headed. He quickly realized the danger behind this matter.

He didn't answer Ji Guoyuan immediately, but told Ji Guoyuan that he needed to have a meeting to discuss it before hanging up the phone.

Hearing a busy tone from the receiver, Ji Guoyuan was not surprised at all, with a faint smile on his face.

Will the Congress refuse to take over Whitebeard from the new navy? Most likely not.

If he were to put himself in another person's shoes, if Enichi Jikuni were now standing in the Sengoku position, he would definitely accept it.

The risk of war was nothing compared to the huge impact of executing Whitebeard. Whitebeard is a legendary pirate. After Roger's death, the most influential pirate is probably Whitebeard.

Although their navy has never given Whitebeard the title "Pirate King", in this era, Whitebeard's influence is not inferior to that of Roger in the past.

The benefits of the Navy being able to execute such people are self-evident.

There was no meeting held to invite people to discuss it together. After a brief ten minutes of thinking, Sengoku decisively called Jiguo Enichi and agreed to it.

"In this case, I will personally send Whitebeard to the Navy Headquarters, Marshal Sengoku."

Ji Guoyuan smiled and said this to Warring States, and then hung up the phone.

After Sengoku hung up the phone and sat quietly in his chair for a long time, he called Brannew, notified all the senior navy officials, and began to make preparations to take over Whitebeard.

Ji Guoyuan came to the Navy Headquarters with a white beard. If this matter was handled slightly carelessly, the consequences would be disastrous.

The newspapers under Morgans quickly reported this incident to the people of the world, but the newspapers deliberately blurred the concepts between the Navy Headquarters and the New Navy.

That report gave people the feeling that the New Navy and the Navy Headquarters still maintained close ties, and there seemed to be no distinction between the two.

Such reports have successfully misled the vast majority of ordinary people who do not know the truth.

Although everyone at the Navy Headquarters also saw the report, they did not come forward to deny or publicly clarify the "special relationship" described in the newspaper.

Warring States and other high-ranking naval officials have not made any so-called statements, and some navy generals have no so-called "publicity channels."

Such an incident may seem like a "little thing" at best to outsiders, but it quickly attracted the attention of the CP agents of the World Government, and reported the matter to Wulaoxing through its own internal channels.

In response to this, Wu Laoxing worked hard and had some grudges against Seng Guo and other naval leaders.

This alliance with Enichi Jikuni quietly shattered the close trust between the Navy and the World Government.

Of course, the top brass of the Navy were currently preparing wholeheartedly for what would happen after receiving Whitebeard, and they didn't notice this at all!

The warship Dawn, led by Jiguo Enichi, slowly left Ten Thousand Kingdoms and headed towards Marineford, which was located in the first half of the Great Route.

As Ji Guoyuan escorted White Beard away, all nations also began to impose martial law.

After Whitebeard was captured, the new world was not peaceful.

The new navies of all nations also need to be prepared for possible revenge and attacks by the Whitebeard Pirates. After all, no one can predict what actions the pirates will make after getting the news.

While Ji Guoyuan led his team to leave Wanguo, Mihawk and Xiong, who were far away in the West Sea, also quickly rushed towards Marineford, where they planned to join Ji Guoyuan.

Everyone in the New Navy has already regarded the Navy Headquarters as their own back garden. When making relevant arrangements, they did not take the Navy Headquarters seriously at all.

The new world, the country of Wano.

The gentle sea breeze was blowing gently. On a certain beach in Jiuli, Kozuki Oden was sitting cross-legged on a rock on the shore, bathing in the warm sunshine and looking out at the sea.

Since returning to the country of Wano, Kozuki Oden often thinks of the days when he traveled on the sea with the two heroes Whitebeard and Roger.

Whenever he misses his past sailing career, he will come to this beach and recall the scene when he first met the Whitebeard Pirates and others.

The peaceful and boring life in Wano Country made Kozuki Oden, who was already restless, eager to take action.

"Wow——"

A big wave hit, and a familiar white shadow of Oden suddenly appeared on the distant sea level.

"Um?!"

Seeing the white boat shadow in the distance, Kozuki Oda murmured in his mouth, straightened his back, couldn't help but rub his eyes, and there was a bit of disbelief on his face.

After "Moby Dick" Kozuki Oden confirmed again and again, he finally murmured softly, with a look of joy on his face.

"Hello--"

The excited Oden quickly rushed to the beach, waved his hands, and gave a loud call to the rapidly approaching Moby Dick.

On the Moby Dick in the distance, the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates gathered on the deck. Looking at the figures waving their hands towards them on the distant coast, they couldn't help but feel sad, and each of them had a look of sadness on their faces. color.

As the Moby Dick approached, Kozuki Oden also saw clearly the crew on the deck in the distance. He could not see the familiar tall figure among the crowd. Kozuki Oden seemed to feel something, and the smile on his face changed. He felt a little stiff and slowly lowered his waving arms.

problem occurs!

Something happened to Whitebeard!

Obviously Oden didn't know anything about the outside world in Wano Country, but the moment he saw the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates, Oden suddenly felt something.
