Above the Pirate King

Chapter 1131 Divided into two!
At least [-]% of the people were moved!
Feeling the eyes of the people around him, Marco's heart sank, and he suddenly felt a trace of sadness!

He never expected that after the death of his father, the first crisis their pirate group encountered was actually from the inside!

The Whitebeard Pirates, who were originally united as one, were in danger of falling apart because of Whitebeard's death!

Thinking back to the days when brothers and sisters laughed together, grieved together, fought together, handed over their backs to others, and shared joys and sorrows on the boat, and then looked at the scene in front of him, and compared the two, Marco suddenly felt absurd!

But soon, Marco packed up his mood and suppressed the absurd feeling in his heart!
"If you want to go, go!" Marco said lightly, "The Whitebeard Pirates are my home, I will not leave, I will always guard for my father!"

Marco didn't want to go, but he didn't want to stop others from going either!
If people's hearts are broken, it's useless to force them to stay!
Again!
Dad also said that no one can make choices for others, even if that person is very close to you, even if the choice he made is the worst in your eyes, the only thing you can do is to hit him on the head When the blood is broken, give him a hand!
"."

Everyone fell silent after hearing Marco's words!
After a long time, Joz was the first to chime in, "Me too, the name of the Whitebeard Pirates, don't lose it!"

"Yes, Dad is dead, but the name of the Whitebeard Pirates must not be lost!"

"I'll stay too!"

"Since Dad is dead, then I will guard for Dad!"

"I was born a human being, and I'm sorry that I couldn't save my father. If I lose the name of the Whitebeard Pirates, I don't know how to live!"

"I was an orphan since I was a child. I didn't feel the warmth of home until I got on the ship of the Whitebeard Pirates. I don't want this home to be destroyed. I want to protect this home, even if it costs me my life!"

After listening to Joz's words, the pirates also echoed and spoke their minds!

And because of these inner thoughts, among the people who were planning to go to Konoha with Aiden, quite a few people's eyes flickered, and their hearts were shaken again, and they wanted to stay in the Whitebeard Pirates!
"Sure enough, it's not that simple to take away more people!" Aiden looked at these people and sighed inwardly. He was not surprised by this result!
The image of Whitebeard in the hearts of the people of the Whitebeard Pirates is too great!

Even if he is dead, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates are still willing to serve him!

And the reason not all want to stay, quite a few are willing to go with Aiden, in addition to Aiden's hard work over the years, is more because of the remains of Whitebeard promised by Konoha!
In other words, the people who are willing to go with Aiden are actually willing to stay from the bottom of their hearts, but they are only willing to go with Aiden because they don't want their father's body to be ruined by the navy!

However, Aiden didn't care too much about it!

No matter why they are willing to go with him, they just want to join Konoha!

As for the others.
Time changes everything!
They can do anything for Whitebeard now, but after they have children and wives in the future, they don't necessarily think so!
Furthermore!

Now Whitebeard is dead too!
"What about the site?" Aiden asked the key question directly!

The voice just fell!

"The territory was taken down by our Whitebeard Pirates, so naturally it belongs to the Whitebeard Pirates!" Before Marco could speak, a pirate who supported him spoke first!

"Yes, that's right!"

"The territory was taken down by our Whitebeard Pirates, of course it belongs to us!"

"Is it possible that you left the Whitebeard Pirates and want to occupy our territory?"

The pirates present who were willing to stay glared at Aiden!

Because Aiden said before that he joined Konoha because Konoha agreed to help them get back Whitebeard's body, so these pirates didn't think Aiden was a traitor, only that he made a great sacrifice for Whitebeard !

But now Aiden even wants to take away Whitebeard's territory, which makes them feel that Aiden is not kind!
However, Aiden didn't pay attention to their words!

He looked directly at Marco, and said seriously, "Right now, there are quite a few pirate groups who are attacking our territory, and with your current strength, it is impossible to hold these territories!"

"Then don't bother you to worry about it. If you want to leave, just go, and I will find a way for the rest!" Marko said lightly.

"You think of a way? What can you think of?" Aiden suddenly became excited, and said, "Are you carrying it to death? Then what will the brothers do then? Now there are only so many brothers left in our Whitebeard Pirates , if they die, the Whitebeard Pirates will really be gone!!!”

After speaking, Aiden calmed down a little, and said slowly, "Give me some peripheral and unimportant sites, and let the Whitebeard Pirates retreat to the core area!"

"In that way, Konoha's people can fight against the foreign pirates for you, and keep the Whitebeard Pirates intact, and it won't hurt too much profit!"

Marco, the pirates present, looked at Aiden who was suddenly emotional, and all fell silent!
At this moment, listening to Aiden's words, they knew what Aiden was thinking!

It turned out that it was not his purpose to take away those territories. What he wanted was to preserve the strength of the Whitebeard Pirates, avoid conflicts between the Whitebeard Pirates and outsiders, and prevent the Whitebeard Pirates from suffering greater losses. !
-
Is Aiden really thinking this way?
of course not!

The reason why he said that was planned!

Now that Whitebeard just died, although the Whitebeard Pirates have internal conflicts, they are still in a state of unity in general. If he wants to swallow the Whitebeard Pirates in one gulp, then it will be very difficult. It is possible to encounter collective opposition and confrontation from the Whitebeard Pirates!

So, he is going to take his time and boil the frog in warm water!

First bring a group of people, and then occupy some unimportant sites of the Whitebeard Pirates. As time goes by, the internal conflicts of the Whitebeard Pirates gradually become apparent. , the larger and stronger pirate group's attack, and after suffering heavy casualties, he will slowly take over the rest of the territory!
In this way, not only will he be able to take over these territories more smoothly in the future, but he will also be able to avoid the losses he will suffer when he conflicts with the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates!
"I'll give you all the islands near Konoha!" Marco said with a bit of disinterest after being silent for a while.

Although he was somewhat reluctant, he had to admit that Aiden's words were not wrong!
The current Whitebeard Pirates really can't afford so many territories!

If you want to fight hard, there will be no other end except for heavy casualties!

So he chose to give Aiden the island near Konoha!
And listening to Marco's words, Aiden nodded, and then said earnestly, "That's it, after we leave, take care of yourself, take care of your brothers, Dad is gone, some things can't be willful anymore !"

After saying that, Aiden paused, and then said, "When you encounter trouble and can't solve it. You can come to me!"

"I will!" Marco nodded after being silent for a moment,
Immediately, Aiden didn't say anything more, stepped forward and patted Marco on the shoulder, and led people past Marco and others!
Soon!

Aiden and others left Marco and Whitebeard's remnants in a few boats!
"Ugh!"

And looking at the few ships that were drifting away, Marco shook his head, sighed faintly, and a trace of deep fatigue flashed in the depths of his eyes!
