One Piece: The Strongest Man on the Surface

On the third day after the funeral,

Andrew and Ace left the village under Marco's eyes.

Over the next three days, other people began to leave, and Andrew did not stop them.

But he knew in his heart that if one day he needed them, these people would rush to help regardless of where they were.

The Mobidi was also left here by Andrew, and now they do not have the ability to let this giant ship sail on the sea.

Ace put away the pirate flag, and with the help of local villagers, they got a smaller sailboat.

"Hey, let me tell you, where are you planning to go as your first stop?"

Ace was at the helm of the boat. His mood had not been very high these days.

Andrew looked at the pointer in his hand, but there was no movement.

Ace glanced at him.

"You, can't you not understand..."

"How is that possible? It's just a pointer, haha..."

Andrew waved his hands hurriedly and said harshly.

Ace shook his head, raised the sail, jumped onto the deck, and snatched the pointer from Andrew's hand.

"You took it upside down."

"..."

Looking at the pointer in his hand, Ace frowned. Andrew shyly leaned forward and said with a smile, "I want to go to Fish-Man Island first. What do you think of it here?"

"Fishman Island?"

Ace was surprised for a moment, then reacted.

"You want to help dad take back Fish-Man Island first?"

Actually, I just want to see a mermaid, Andrew muttered in his heart, but of course he wouldn't say so.

Putting on a serious look, he said in a deep voice: "Yes, the mermaids of Fish-Man Island, bah, the residents of Fish-Man Island are my father's people, and outsiders will never be allowed to get involved."

Ace raised his eyebrows: "Even if the opponent is the Yonko?"

"Not even the Four Emperors!"

Andrew said firmly, then returned to his usual lazy look, plucked his ears and said: "Besides, I am also a king, so I won't coward them."

Ace ignored his boast and turned his head with a smile on his lips.

The sailboat without power was not very fast. Fortunately, the wind on the sea was not weak today. Around evening time, the two of them arrived at the Red Earth Continent again.

Looking at the chasm in the distance, Andrew said doubtfully: "Our ship... shouldn't be able to reach Fish-Man Island. I heard that Fish-Man Island is on the bottom of the sea."

"Yes."

Ace nodded: "Generally speaking, if a ship wants to reach Fish-Man Island, it must be coated and then take the submarine route."

"Then you want to find Rayleigh?"

"No, I have a friend here."

friend?

Andrew was a little curious and saw Ace take out a blue phone bug.

After picking up the phone, a rough voice came from the other side.

"Ace! I'm so glad you're safe!"

"Hey, don't worry, we want to go to Fish-Man Island, can you help us?"

"Hahaha, I am also planning to go back. Where are you? I will pick you up right away..."

After hanging up the phone, Andrew asked doubtfully: "This is it?"

Ace waved his hand in a mysterious manner and said with a smile, "You'll know when you see him."

After saying that, he folded the sails and lay down on the deck, staring blankly at the sky.

Although the weather at sea is changeable, it is mostly comfortable.

Tonight's night sky is pure, without any impurities.

With the sea breeze blowing, Ace suddenly said: "Andrew, I heard that you are Hawkeye's younger brother. Your swordsmanship must be very good."

"good."

Andrew agreed perfunctorily.

"When I was on the execution platform, I saw you catching Hawkeye's sword, and everyone was frightened."

"Haha, is it that exaggerated?" Andrew disagreed.

Ace rolled over and sat up, looking at him as if he were a monster.

Andrew felt uncomfortable staring at him and couldn't help but said: "What's wrong?"

Ace sighed.

"I really don't know if you are really stupid or pretending to be stupid. Your brother Hawkeye is recognized as the strongest swordsman in the world. Anyone who was familiar with him that day knows that he was hiding his strength from the beginning to the end, otherwise you would never win so easily. .”

So powerful?

Andrew looked surprised. To be honest, he thought Hawkeye was very powerful at first, especially after he copied the opponent's ability.

But during the war at the top, after seeing so many weird abilities, Hawkeye's power seemed to him to be average.

But according to what Ace meant, the other party's power was far more than that.

Then why can't I feel it at all?

Could it be that……

Andrew suddenly realized that his fruit could not replicate the power of domineering. Could it be because of this that he could not feel the power of Hawkeye?

When I was distracted, a lot of foam suddenly appeared on the sea surface nearby, as if something was rushing out.

Andrew immediately turned over and sat up vigilantly, but Ace said with a relaxed expression: "Don't worry, he is my friend."

wow——

A huge figure emerged from the water and stood firmly on the deck.

"Hey, Ace, long time no see. You're looking good."

The visitor laughed and stepped forward, and only then did Andrew see what the other person looked like.

He has wind-like eyebrows and sideburns, a Ding Gong style hairstyle, a thick black short beard on his chin, and a lightning-like scar on the corner of his left eye.

He has a plump figure and two large teeth on his lower jaw. The sun symbol representing the "Sun Pirates" is located in the center of his chest. He wears a yukata with an embroidered pattern.

This appearance made Andrew instantly guess the identity of the other party.

One of the original Shichibukai, captain of the Sun Pirates.

Kaixia——Jinbei!

"Jinbei, I'm going to trouble you again this time."

Ace stepped forward with a smile and bowed deeply.

Jinbei hurriedly supported him: "What are you doing? Let's not mention that we are both in trouble together. Whitebeard dad also took good care of me when he was alive. This is what we should do."

Speaking of Whitebeard, the atmosphere became a little heavy.

Ace lowered his head, the joy of seeing his old friend again replaced by sadness.

Jinbei gently patted his shoulder and comforted him: "I'm sorry about dad. As sons, we should cheer up!"

"……Um……"

Andrew stood aside quietly without disturbing the two of them.

After a long time, Jinbei noticed him and said hesitantly: "You are that Andrew."

"it's me."

Andrew nodded.

"Great, then this operation will be more certain!"

Jinbei was very excited. The sudden arrival of the Big Mom Pirates made him very angry, and at the same time he felt deeply powerless.

The other party coveted the special pastries from Fish-Man Island and would not hesitate to put down the dignity of the Four Emperors to snatch them away.

Facing the terrifying three generals, he could only fight with all his strength, but it would affect the residents of Fish-Man Island.

With no choice but to accept the recruitment of the Big Mom Pirates to protect Fish-Man Island.

Now that Andrew has joined as a big help, even if he is not Auntie's opponent, he still has a certain say.

After all, Andrew is the fifth emperor recognized by the government!

"Without further ado, let's set off!"
