This pirate is not too cold

Chapter 384 The World Conference With a Weird Atmosphere
If other pirates rejected Whitebeard's invitation, Whitebeard would just laugh it off and not insist on it forever.

But he has already investigated, that "Fire Fist" Ace, that kid named Portgas D. Ace, in fact, his real name should have been "Gol D. Ace", which is his own. An old acquaintance, the son of "Gol D. Roger", the One Piece known by others.

In Whitebeard's view, Roger is a man who has performed miracles many times.

The two of them are both competitors and best friends.

Whitebeard doesn't know where Ralph Drew is, doesn't know what One Piece is, and doesn't know why Roger wants to trigger this "Era of Great Pirates".

But this does not affect White Beard's appreciation of Roger's courage and character, so White Beard's interest in Roger's blood is naturally unprecedented.

After Ace failed to challenge Whitebeard, Whitebeard kept his promise and did not harm the members of the Spades Pirates, but he did not let Ace leave the Whitebeard Pirates.

Ace has "overlord look and arrogance", is Roger's son, and is also a descendant of the "D family". In addition, White Beard likes the fearless and rebellious temperament of Ace very much. White Beard He really wanted to keep Ace on board.

Marko's character is too lazy, Jozi is simple, Sach is gentle, and Vista only cares about "the way of swordsmanship".

If Portgas D. Ace can be properly trained, then he is likely to become the most qualified candidate to lead the Whitebeard Pirates.

Perhaps the most important quality that people on earth pay attention to when choosing a leader is "calmness and stability", but for a pirate, Whitebeard hopes that the leader after his death is a domineering man like him.

"Stinky boy, if you want to sneak attack me now, you are still far behind!"

Whitebeard threw Ace out of his bedroom, only to hear a "plop", and Ace fell into the sea in embarrassment.

"Ace!"

With a yell, Marshall D. Teach was the first to jump from the deck into the sea to rescue Ace.

Don't look at Tiqi's chubby figure and a little lack of exercise.

In fact, he has great strength and good swimming skills.

In the Whitebeard Pirates, where there are many devil fruit capable people, Tiki's popularity is very good by virtue of his water quality.

Titch is a very far-sighted person. He firmly believes that only by building a good relationship with everyone on board can he obtain the most information and increase his chances of finding the "dark fruit".

Even though Ace hasn't joined the Whitebeard Pirates yet, Tiki has already seen it.

He is [-]% sure that Whitebeard intends to train Ace to be the next successor of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Maybe one day in the future, I can use Whitebeard's concern for this "Fire Fist" Ace to send Whitebeard to hell.

Titch thought so.

Soon, Teach rescued Ace from the sea.

"Cough...uh...thank you, Teach."

Ace spat out a big mouthful of foul-smelling seawater, coughed a few times, and thanked Tiki.

As a devil fruit capable user, he is naturally afraid of the power of the sea.

What's more, what Ace ate was "burning fruit", which was flames, so after falling into the sea, Ace looked extremely embarrassed.

"Ace, don't worry about it, Dad is just such a person, with a knife mouth and a bean curd heart, he definitely doesn't really want to drown you!"

Tiki comforted Ace.

Seeing that Ace just leaned against the side of the boat without answering, Tiqi wisely stopped talking to Ace, turned around and left Ace's side.

In fact, this is the 79th time that Ace failed to assassinate Whitebeard.

Whitebeard has been tolerating him all the time, and he hasn't really killed him until now, which even Ace finds it a little inconceivable.

What is this white beard trying to do?
Is he humiliating himself?
Or do you really want to invite yourself to be his family?
Ace just leaned on it like this, not washing the sea water on his body, blowing the fresh but fishy sea breeze, looking at the clouds in the sky, quietly lost in thought.

"Hey Ace, what are you thinking?"

"Sage", the captain of the fourth division of the Whitebeard Pirates, came over from a short distance away.

He held two glasses in his hand, and handed one of them to Ace: "This is ice cream made by Monica (Monet), eat it."

"Thank you, Thatch."

Ace was as polite as ever.

Without hesitation, he took the ice cream from Sage's hand, but didn't eat it.

Ever since Ace and Luffy thought that Sabo was dead, Ace learned the etiquette of dealing with people from the bar proprietress "Makino" in Windmill Array, and became polite.

Because he wants to inherit Sabo's will and be a good brother.

The people of the Whitebeard Pirates were really kind to Ace, so the two parties got along very well easily-except that Ace's obsession with wanting to defeat Whitebeard has not changed.

Sach was not in a hurry either, he sat directly on the deck next to Ace, ate the ice cream in the cup, and watched the clouds in the sky with Ace.

After a long time, Ace suddenly asked, "Saqi, do the Four Emperors like to adopt others as their sons?"

"Um, never heard of it."

Thatch choked on Ace's words.

He has been with Whitebeard for so many years, and besides Whitebeard, he has never heard of anyone who would accept someone else as his son.

"Are you referring to the former BIGMOM Pirates?"

Saqi smiled, and he looked at Ace: "You may not believe it, the dozens of sons and daughters of the Charlotte family are actually born by BIGMOM alone."

Ace opened his mouth wide in surprise, he didn't even care to eat the ice cream that was just delivered to his mouth.

"Just her alone, giving birth to so many?"

"Yeah. You just came to the new world. You don't know that BIGMOM is actually a weirdo. His body structure is different from others. He has the abilities of strange power, strange sound, and steel skin since he was a child.

Hey Ace, don't be scared.

BIGMOM not only has many sons and daughters, but also has all kinds of races, such as long-legged, murloc, snake-headed... That woman is really beyond what we can imagine! "

Ace's black bangs were stained with white dried sea salt and messed up in the sea breeze. There was only one word left to describe his first impression of BIGMOM: "Bull...beep..."

"Yeah, pretty cool."

Seeing that Ace seemed to have recovered from his low mood, Sach also gradually became more relaxed.

Ace hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "Then are you also Whitebeard's biological children?"

"No, not at all!"

Saqi swallowed a mouthful of ice cream before continuing to answer: "All the people on board, everyone has no blood relationship with Dad."

"Then why do you call him Daddy?"

"Because, people like us with different personalities and eccentric tempers are not welcome no matter where we are.

But in the Whitebeard Pirates, Dad will tolerate all our shortcomings, willfulness and past.

That man gave us a home, so we... all call him Daddy willingly. "

Ace's eyes flickered, and he was too shocked by Sage to say a word.

A "home"?

What a simple yet rare answer.

Where is your home?The bandit hut on Korbo Mountain in Goa Kingdom of the East China Sea?
Indeed, there are many lovely people there, and it is also the place where I met Sabo and Luffy.

But how can a real "family" have no parents?
In Ace's view, Gol D. Roger is just a scumbag father who cares about his birth and carelessness.

Monkey D. Cap is a bastard navy grandfather who gave his own grandson and god-grandson to bandits to raise him.

Ace has had enough of this father and grandpa.

If the "Whitebeard Pirates" is a family, then in this "home", will there really be a place for themselves?
"Ace, what are you thinking? Your ice cream is almost turning into water."

"Ah, sorry!"

Ace opened his mouth wide, poured all the half-melted ice cream into his mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Sach took a breath, frowned and shook his head: "Where did you learn how to eat this? You can't experience the wonderful taste of ice cream if you eat it like this."

Ace stood up, wiped the corners of his mouth, and grinned: "Delicious!"

"Where are you going?" Sage asked worriedly.

"Since I can eat such delicious ice cream, of course I have to thank Miss Monica!"

……

After Ace met "Ghost" Carl by chance, visited "Red Hair" Shanks, challenged "White Beard" Edward Newgate, and finally failed 79 sneak attacks, the time has come to 1518 in the sea calendar.

The quadrennial world conference was held on time again as usual, and most of the high-level leaders of the holy land "Mary Gioia" and the participating countries of the world government have arrived safely.

The participating countries this time include Alabasta, the "Kingdom of the Desert", Dressrosa, the "Kingdom of Love, Passion and Fairies", Drum Island, the Kingdom of Iron Barrels, Prodence, the "Kingdom of Arms", and the West Sea, the "Land of Flowers". More than 50 countries have joined the world government, including Germa, the "Country of Science" in the North Sea, Dragon Palace Kingdom, the "Fishman Island", and Grand Tezolo, the "Golden City".

(The war expert is the organization of Germa 66, not the Kingdom of Germa, although they are essentially a group of people)

In fact, there are more than 100 member countries of the World Government, but some countries are too weak and too small to have any real value. They are basically a make-up, so the World Government did not invite the kings of those countries.

The "World Conference" is of course not more than 50 kings and officials of the world government gathered in the same conference room to discuss together. In fact, they all hold meetings in batches. Who can sit in the same conference room with whom? There are many Article on details.

It is hard to say whether this model will change in the future, at least it has been like this this year and before.

"Steel Bone" Kong, the commander-in-chief of the world government's armed forces.

When a soldier reaches his position, he is no longer a pure soldier, and he is already considered half a politician.

Kong, who controls the military power of the three armies, has no lower status than the "five old stars".

"Kings, please be quiet, this is not a vegetable market for you to quarrel!"

Kong's voice was not loud, but it effectively calmed down the red-faced kings arguing on both sides of the conference table.

Unlike the "United Nations" on earth, it needs to act according to the face of major powers.

In this world, the world government has absolute military strength and power.

"Cobra, why do you still care about the world with your virtue? Take care of the desert in your home first. I heard that your country has stopped raining for a year!"

Sitting in his seat, King Valpo of Drum Island spat Cobra, King of Alabasta.

In fact, the two of them still have something in common, both of them have been severely cheated by Karl once.

Walpo was deprived of countless treasures and swallowed fruits by Cal, and Cobra was deprived by Cal of the rubbings of the historical text recording the hiding place of Hades.

"you……"

Cobra, who was upright, stood up from his chair in anger at Valpo.

"King Cobra, please calm down."

Kong first persuaded Cobra, and then looked at Valpo: "Walpo, pay attention to your words!"

Walpo shrank his neck in fright at the military demeanor exuded by Sora, and stopped talking.

This matter was originally Valpo's fault, and since Cobra was a descendant of the Neferutari family, Sora would not be polite to Valpo.

"Hey, Marshal Kong, in fact, compared to the revolutionary army, I think the Carret led by 'Ghost and God' Karl you just mentioned is the most threatening organization to the world government!"

Walpo has a very thick skin. After being reprimanded by Kong, instead of getting angry, he supported Kong's opinion with a playful smile.

After all, Kong was a soldier, and his sensitive intuition told him that even though Callett did not overthrow one kingdom after another like the revolutionary army, their military power is very likely to be the most important thing for the world government, or even the world's largest. threaten.

"Don't you?"

Tezzolo, who was dressed gorgeously, interjected: "Callet is nothing more than a group of pirates, can it be compared with a revolutionary organization like the Revolutionary Army?"

Although Tezolo once fought against the BIGMOM Pirates with Karl, this did not affect his participation in the World Conference.

After all, Murloc Island is protected by Whitebeard, isn't it still participating in the World Conference?
The money in the Golden City, the technology in Germa, the medicine in Drum Island, the racial significance in Murloc Island...

The politicians of the world government will not act like children, they only look at the interests.

Kong looked at Tezolo and asked, "Tezolo, do you have any good suggestions?"

"Don't, I'm just a businessman, not a soldier, let alone an official. I don't understand the way you are here.

I am only responsible for paying the money, and you can make the specific decisions yourself. "

Tezolo propped his chin with both hands, and wore ten gold, silver and diamond rings on his ten fingers, which made Hollow couldn't help but despise the local rich man of the world government.

Sora looked at the old and new kings "Violet" and "King Riku" in Dressrosa, at the "War King" Elizabello II of the Kingdom of Prodence, and at the King of Germa. "Vinsmoke Gage".

For some reason, he always felt that the atmosphere of this meeting was weird.
