Rocks turned his head and glanced at the giant man.
"That's right, Kaido, you are a rookie who just joined the Pirates, so you don't know much about these things."
Rocks nodded slightly, his eyes fell on a wall in the room.
The display shelves on the wall are full of transparent bottles and jars.
Inside each bottle is a small piece of ash, and there is a corresponding name tag on the glass bottle.
"This is the ashes of the life card."
"Before you, the ashes of the life card left after the death of the strong in the pirate group."
After more than ten years of fighting, the Lockes Pirates were certainly not unscathed. Many of the strong men that Lockes was optimistic about died in the battle.
The embers of this bottle of life card are the only thing they left behind.
"So many people?" Kaido was also taken aback, there were dozens of bottles on the display shelf.
You know, Rocks' eyes are higher than the top, and he can be called a strong man, and he is definitely not a small fish or shrimp.
"How? Are you scared?"
Rocks laughed out loud.
He collected the embers of these life cards, of course not to commemorate those who have died...
"These dead souls are the cornerstone of our Rocks Pirates becoming the overlord of the sea..."
"Those who die are the losers, and those who live are the most powerful among us."
When Lockes said this, Kaido's eyes fell on one of the bottles, and he let out a low exclamation.
"But this bottle, how can there be a complete life card?"
"What are you talking about? How is this possible? Only the life card of the dead will be placed here." Lockes still didn't believe it, walked over, and then his pupils shrank suddenly.
He stretched out his hand suddenly and took the bottle in his hand.
The life card fragments in the glass bottle floated up in one direction automatically without wind.
Rocks looked down and read the name on the bottle label.
"Vice-captain Wang Xige."
Rocks looked up.
His dark eyes suddenly lit up, and then the corners of his mouth slowly curved, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"interesting."
"The life card that has long been reduced to ashes will reappear? This is really an unheard of anomaly."
Lockes muttered to himself, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, slightly lost in thought.
"Captain Rocks?" Kaido asked in a deep voice beside him:
"Who is Sig? What kind of strange title is the deputy captain Wang?"
Rocks hesitated slightly.
Then he glanced at Kaido angrily.
"Right."
"You are a newcomer. After all, he has been dead for 12 years, and this sea will not remember the name of the dead."
"His name is Wang Xige. He was the deputy captain of our pirate group when the Rocks pirate group was established."
Having said that, Lockes glanced at the color of reminiscence, recalling the old past, and he took a deep look at Kaido.
"Speaking of which, your devil fruit ability may have a little relationship with Wang Xige..."
"Ask Longbread, or Big Mom."
Rocks pushed open the door and walked away on his own:
"Next, it's time to go."
……
After half a day.
Beside the coast of Beehive Island, a huge pirate fleet is ready to go.
Kaido is standing by the shore, talking to the long bread next to him.
"You mean Wang Xige?" Long Bread narrowed his eyes:
"He is indeed the deputy captain of our pirate group, a long-dead big pirate, and he may even be the person closest to the captain when the pirate group was first established."
"Wang Xige's name has long been forgotten by Dahai, but speaking of another person, Kaido, you should have heard of it."
The long bread paused and said:
"Puncture Dracula, he used to be Wang Xige's deputy."
Chapter 698 The World's Strongest Pirate Group
After Long Bread mentioned Dracula's name, not only Kaido was taken aback, but the other pirates also looked sideways.
"Is that Dracula the Impaler?"
"He is such a ferocious big pirate, he actually served as someone else's deputy?"
"Is this true? Dracula has a bad reputation. Even now that he has disappeared, such things are not a joke."
The pirates talked aloud one after another, and they couldn't believe it.
Long bread is eloquent:
"When our Rocks Pirates were first established, Wang Xige joined with Dracula."
"At that time, Dracula was famous for his brutal methods, but in fact, his own strength was not outstanding among our Lockes Pirates."
"It wasn't until Dracula the Impaler went to sea again after Wang Sieg's death that this bloodthirsty beast showed its true fangs."
"Is Dracula the Impaler so strong?" Kaido was also a little surprised.
"It's not a question of being strong or not at all!" At some point, Miles, the ship doctor of the Rocks Pirates, came over, with a lingering fear still on his face.
"If we say that our current era is the era when Captain Lockes dominates."
"And in the year when Dracula the Impaler went to sea, our doctors secretly called that year the first year of Dracula."
"From the first year of Dracula, we will call the guy who dares to challenge Dracula a brave warrior."
The ship doctor Myers said solemnly:
"This is an extremely cruel and heinous person. He has delivered a large number of cases by himself, and promoted the development of anorectal medicine in the world for at least ten years!"
"Dracula the Impaler is a beast that will not be remembered by the times! When he disappeared, the anorectal surgeons all over the world cheered..."
"This... this is too scary."
"Has such a character ever been inferior to others?"
When the pirates surrounded the ship doctor Miles and exclaimed, Long Bread brought the topic back on track: "By the way, Kaido, why did you suddenly ask about Wang Xige?"
"No matter how special he is, he is a person who has been dead for many years after all."
Kaido pondered for a while, and said:
"Wang Xige's life card has been recovered from the ashes, and it points in a certain direction."
"What? How is this possible? There has never been such a thing as life card recovery." Long Bread was slightly taken aback, and suddenly his eyes showed strange light.
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this seemed to make sense logically.
The life card is a strange thing that indicates the life force of the card owner.
When the owner's life is dying, the life card will gradually burn into ashes and gradually become smaller.
If the owner can restore health, the life card will also return to its original size.
"Twelve years ago, Wang Xige was on the verge of death, and even Life Card thought that Xige was dead? But now he has recovered?" Long Bread frowned.
However, before he could think for a long time, his thoughts were interrupted by a person's footsteps.
It's Rocks.
He finally appeared at this port, still holding the small bottle containing the life card in his hand.
Lockes was silent, his dark eyes scanned the pirates on the pirate fleet, who were ready to go.
Whitebeard Edward Newgate stood side by side with Golden Lion Shiki, standing at the forefront of all pirates.
After that, there are BIG MOM, newcomers Kaido, Silver Axe, Wang Zhi, John, Undead Hale and many other big pirates.
Everyone held their weapons and looked at him together.
Everyone has a strong breath and a famous big pirate.
At this time, it was the time when the Rocks Pirates were at their strongest. They were the most powerful pirates in the entire sea and the uncrowned kings of the new world.
Lockes raised the glass bottle in his hand high and looked at the life card floating in it.
"Guys, it's time to set sail!"
"Go and pick up my deputy captain of the Rocks Pirates, Wang Xige." Rocks shouted loudly.
Whitebeard's pupils shrank slightly, but he didn't say anything, just clenched the naginata in his hand.
He had already learned from Dracula that Sig was still alive, but he didn't expect that it would take 12 years for him to die.
BIG MOM didn't have any special reaction, and continued to stuff egg tarts into his mouth.
Already 30 years old, her figure has become mellow at a jaw-dropping speed, and she gradually has the demeanor of a big mom of later generations.
The golden lion Shiji squinted his eyes, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes.
Amidst the shock and noise of the pirates, this pirate fleet began to leave the shore, sailing towards the depths of the new world in the direction indicated by the life card.
