One Piece: The Strongest Man on the Surface

With the Ark's motto, the journey for the two became much easier. Although a large number of pirates have entered the new world, most of them are newcomers. On the sail, the huge logo symbolizing the Whitebeard Pirates is placed There, and with Ace lying on the bow of the boat basking in the sun, there were no blind people to stir up trouble.

"Ah, it's rare to be so relaxed."

Enjoying the oncoming sea breeze, Ace stretched out and murmured.

Andrew, who was sitting on the captain's seat on the deck behind him, almost turned black when he heard this.

There is no other reason. Proverb's drive requires him to continuously deliver electricity, which is equivalent to him being imprisoned in this chair. Once he leaves, the Proverb can only drift with the tide.

"If I had known, I would have used a lifeboat, you would have been exhausted!" Andrew thought angrily.

Recalling that the three of them had just left Fish-Man Island, Jinbei and Ace took turns driving the boat, so he didn't have to worry at all.

Look again now.

"Oh, the way of heaven is so reincarnated."

Andrew let out a long sigh, lowered his head and continued to deliver electricity silently.

Ace on the bow heard his complaint and took off his hat and put it on his face, simply out of sight and out of mind.

The Proverb was so fast that it didn't look like a sailboat at all.

In less than half a day, they arrived at the village where Marco lived in seclusion, which was Whitebeard's former residence.

Marco was very enthusiastic about the arrival of the two of them. After all, these were companions who had fought together.

But when he heard the purpose of their visit, Marco fell silent.

Andrew saw his hesitation and sighed inwardly.

Originally, he wanted to use Marco's relationship with the two kings of the fur tribe to gain the support of the fur tribe.

At the moment, it seems that Marco is no longer willing to get involved in the disputes in the pirate world. Whitebeard's death makes him seem to have aged decades.

"Ace, Andrew, I want to help you, but I can't leave."

Marco looked at the village in the distance. It was dinner time now, and every house was lit with smoke, and the sounds of calls and children's laughter and play seemed to be in his ears.

"This is my father's hometown and his only legacy. I want to protect this place from being invaded by outsiders."

Now he is a doctor in the village and he likes life here very much.

After saying that, Marco stood up, remained silent for a moment, and then turned around and left.

"You can leave early tomorrow morning."

Ace still wanted to dissuade him, but Andrew held out his hand to stop him.

Andrew shook his head, Ace lowered his head and said nothing more, but it could be seen from his trembling hands that his heart was not peaceful.

At night, Andrew came to the deck. At this time, Ace was standing high on the mast, silently looking at the village below.

Andrew jumped up slightly, came to sit next to him, and looked at the village in front of him with him.

At this moment, the village has fallen into a dream state, and there is silence all around. Occasionally there will be one or two frogs croaking, but it makes the place look more peaceful and peaceful.

"Captain Marco made the right choice."

Ace suddenly spoke. Although there was not much expression on his face, Andrew could hear the loneliness in his tone.

"Dad has poured all his life's wealth and hard work here, and we cannot let outsiders get involved."

Andrew was silent for a long time and then nodded slightly.

"Um……"

On the other side, Marco was also tossing and turning.

Early the next morning, the two of them had a tacit understanding that they did not go to Marco to say goodbye. The sails were opened and the Proverbs slowly sailed away from the coast.

"Wait a moment!"

Just when Andrew was about to accelerate, a long roar suddenly came from behind.

Ace turned around suddenly and looked at the blue figure flying towards the village with surprise on his face.

"Captain Marco!"

The figure landed on the deck, it was Marco. At this time, he changed his previous decadent look and threw a piece of paper to Andrew as soon as he landed.

"This is the life card to Zouwu. You can't find it on the map of that place."

Andrew reached out to catch it and asked doubtfully: "Aren't you coming with us?"

Ace, who was originally extremely pleasantly surprised, was stunned again when he heard this.

"Haha, don't be like that Ace." Marco smiled and stepped forward and patted his shoulder, then said seriously: "I will go, maybe a little later, but if you really confront Big Mom and Kaido, I will definitely go!”

After saying that, he turned to look at Andrew, put his right hand on his chest, and said slowly but firmly: "Because, we are the Whitebeard Pirates!"

……

Dressrosa is known to the world as the "Land of Love, Passion and Toys".

This is the hometown of the little humans and the former residence of the Celestial Dragon Don Quixote family.

In the past, Dressrosa became one of the richest countries in the New World at that time by continuously squeezing the labor force of the small humans.

After the Don Quixote family was invited to enter Mariejoia and become Celestial Dragons, the Riku family became the new royal family of Dressrosa.

After King Liku took office, he immediately apologized to the small humans, liberated the slaves of the small humans, and used the "Legend of Fairies" to prevent humans and small humans from disturbing each other.

Nowadays, Dressrosa has been occupied by Doflamingo, one of the Shichibukai, in the name of regaining his hometown. It has become a smile production base and Doflamingo's headquarters.

At this time, inside the palace, the cadres of the Don Quixote family gathered together. Buffalo, who had a runny nose, said, "Nai Nai, hasn't that guy from Dover come out yet?"

Jorah, who had red and yellow hair, held the playing cards and smiled when he heard the words: "Maybe something happened. That guy Caesar hasn't shown up since he came back."

Behind a few people, a little girl wearing a pink bear hood and a crown was holding a bowl of grapes and eating them with relish.

In the basement of the palace, Doflamingo took a deep breath and picked up the phone bug in front of him.

Bye bye bye bye——

Kacha!

"Which one?"

"It's me, joker! I have something important to convey. Caesar is here with me, and the experiment is ruined."

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and after a while, a cold voice came out.

"who is it?"

Hearing this voice, Doflamingo's brows jumped suddenly, and then he said in a deep voice: "The new Emperor of the Sea, Joracole Andrew."

"Oh, even a fledgling kid can't handle it, joker. It seems we all overestimated your strength."

Frowning deeply, Doflamingo suppressed his anger and refused to refute.

Fortunately, the person on the other end of the phone didn't intend to continue teasing.

"We will take action. Before that, you must protect Caesar. If an accident occurs, you know the consequences, right, joker? You can't bear your mother's anger!"

After saying that, the call was hung up, and Doflamingo stood there with a gloomy face.

After a long time, he exerted force and the microphone in his hand immediately shattered, and then he picked up another phone bug.

"Please help me find Mr. Kaido!"
