Ultimate Blade Shadow in One Piece Navy

"Tiqi, you still need to be more active. Dad has actually put down the Oden matter. In the past few years, he has also been looking for a candidate to be the captain of the second team. In fact, you are very suitable."

In the Whitebeard Sea, the fourth team of the Whitebeard Pirates battled against Thatch. He said to a pirate next to him who looked a little out of breath. Seeing that Teach didn't know how to answer, Thatch also sighed and said:

"You also know about dad's body. A few days ago, he was suddenly talking about how great it would be if Ace became a pirate, so that he could have one more child, and the captain of the second team was also found.

But...how is this possible, Teach, tell me, do you want to be the captain of the second team? "

Thatch patted Tikki on the shoulder and asked sincerely. Tikki lowered his head and said: "I will always be my father's son, but... whether I can be the squad leader or not is not something I can decide. "

"It's not like you haven't spoken to dad yet. Look at all these brothers, which one of them hasn't agreed to dad's request?

I know that the position of captain of the second division is very special, but... I am optimistic about you. "

Sage said, showing a very hearty and sincere smile. Teach looked up at Sage's face, and there was a trace of struggle on his face.

No one has no dreams, but some people are not aware of their dreams, and some people dare not speak out about their dreams, which makes people feel indifferent to the world.

But Teach is not such a person. He is not willing to just be Whitebeard's crew member, nor is he willing to just be Whitebeard's "son". He is a person with dreams, and he also wants to do something big on his own!

But he has been holding back for that dream for 20 years. After 20 years, he still has not found the opportunity to realize his dream. It seems that his dream can only remain a dream.

Moreover, Teach also thought about Whitebeard, who was getting older and even occasionally confused. He didn't know how long Whitebeard could live, but...

Maybe it's time to put aside your dreams for the time being. In fact, it's a good thing to just be Whitebeard's son, because...Whitebeard really treats them as his own sons.

Maybe... for the rest of Whitebeard's life, he should be a good son. As for his dream... 20 years have passed, are there still a few more years left?Thinking of this, Teach nodded and said: "I know, Captain Sach, I..."

"Captain Thatch! Captain Thatch! It's a great harvest!"

Just when Teach was shouting, a crew member from the Whitebeard Squadron [-] who was looting another pirate ship shouted. Teach looked over and asked, "What did you find?"

"Devil Fruit! Devil Fruit!"

Hearing the shouts of the crew, Thatch smiled and said happily: "Devil Fruit?! That's at least [-] million beli. If you take this back, Dad and Marco will be very happy!"

But after hearing the shouts of the Whitebeard crew, the crew members of the pirate group who were raided had a look of confusion on their faces. When did they have such a thing as a devil fruit on their ship?

For a moment, the crew members looked at the people around them with suspicion, always thinking that they had hidden the Devil Fruit. After all, the Devil Fruit was not a treasure of gold and silver and could not be divided equally.

Moreover, if it were them, they would also be able to swallow the devil fruit, right?

After Teach heard about the Devil Fruit, he suddenly became energetic, but he didn't feel much joy. After all, the Whitebeard Pirates had harvested more than one Devil Fruit over the years.

But Teach doesn't like those Devil Fruits. The only Devil Fruit he wants now is that one, secretly...

"That is?!"

Although he felt that the probability of obtaining the Dark Fruit was very low, Teach subconsciously turned to look at the crew member who made the sound. His eyes nearly popped out when he saw the fruit in the crew member's hand.

Judging from the appearance of the fruit, it was clearly the dark fruit he saw in the devil fruit illustrated book when he was a child! ! !Moreover, the moment he saw this Devil Fruit, Teach felt himself salivating rapidly.

Moreover, he subconsciously licked the missing tooth, and the sudden desire in his heart made Teach certain that the fruit in the hands of the crew member was indeed a real devil fruit.

Tiqi put one hand on the guardrail at this time, his nails were embedded in the paint, and his eyes were staring at the fruit, unwilling to move away for a second.

It's just that he has been a transparent person in the Whitebeard Pirates for 20 years, and no one noticed anything unusual about him. Thachi next to him was also focused on the Devil Fruit at this time, and did not notice Teach's appearance. .

After a while, Tiqi barely suppressed his inner desire and returned to his usual smiling expression, but one that always gave people a feeling of inferiority.

At this time, the crew member also boarded Thatch's ship and handed the Devil Fruit to Thatch. Teach could hardly hold back the Dark Fruit that was so close and was about to pounce on it and take a bite.

But...he has been holding back for 20 years!If you wait a little longer, Teach can still do it.

Thatch admired the fruit in his hand, but he did not recognize what kind of fruit it was. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to pass the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book, and not everyone can memorize the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book.

What's more, Sachi is more concerned about the big family of the Whitebeard Pirates and the father of Whitebeard, and secondly his cooking skills. As for Devil Fruits...how can a chef treat Devil Fruits that have no positive flavor? interested?

What Sachi was thinking at this time was that if he brought this fruit back and if it could be auctioned for a good price, then... maybe Marco wouldn't need to pull out his hair all day long for Pele, right?

In fact, the Whitebeard Pirates originally had a lot of money. It can even be said that... Dad has reserved more than ten years of expenses, including those in the group and in his hometown...

But Whitebeard gave Katakuri a full 20 ​​billion beli in cash, and his body required a lot of medication, which made the Whitebeard Pirates' economy very bad.

In the past few years, Whitebeard didn't even hope that his "sons" would go out to make money. After all... how could a father be willing to let his son support himself?

Doesn’t that mean that you no longer have the ability to run this family?

A father has a very special profession. He hopes that his children can grow up quickly and live independently. On the other hand, he does not want his children to leave him.

Because only the father's shoulders should carry the burden of the family. If he wants his children to maintain his own livelihood...what a weak father would he be?

Therefore, Whitebeard said time and again that when his health gets better, he will get some money back, but his health...has no tendency to get better.

He slept longer and longer, and even when he was awake, he was not completely awake.

But this also gave Marco an opportunity. Marco asked the doctor to treat Whitebeard, and used these "outsiders" to "restrict" his father, so that their sons could hide from Whitebeard's sight and work for the family. .

They have been doing this for more than a year, but it took Whitebeard decades to save the money.

Their sons' taking turns could only maintain a balance of income and expenditure at best. After all, it was impossible for all the children to leave Whitebeard's sight. If so, they would definitely be discovered by Whitebeard.

Therefore, at most two squadrons would travel at a time. After plundering, they would quickly return to the Moby Dick. If Dad asked, he would just say they were out for a while.

Whitebeard's mental state was not very good, so he didn't think carefully, and he trusted his children enough not to doubt them. Just stumbling like this, they barely managed to make ends meet for more than a year.

But Thatch looked at the Devil Fruit in his hand... If this was a better Devil Fruit and could be sold for a good price, then they wouldn't need to run around.

Sachi held the fruit in one hand and touched his chin with the other, and asked Tiqi: "Tiqi, how much do you think this fruit can be sold for?"

As soon as the question came out, Tiqi shuddered, his smile froze, and he almost couldn't control his murderous aura. However, 20 years of Qi cultivation skills allowed him to adjust before Sachi realized the abnormality, and then said with a naive smile. :

"How much does it cost? I don't know. After all, Devil Fruit... there is no standard selling price."

Showing two rows of missing teeth, Teach scratched his head, with a naive and straight smile on his face. Teach nodded and said, "Yes, but it's at least [-] million beli."

Saatchi said, suddenly looked at Teach and asked: "Do you want it?"

This fruit can bring financial relief to the Whitebeard Pirates, but... if someone on the ship wants this fruit, if that person is Teach... it may be better than selling it.

After all, Teach's physical skills are excellent, but he has never had an eye-catching ability. If he becomes a devil fruit user, his father will be happy to let him become the captain of the second team, right?

Upon hearing Saatchi's question, Teach almost agreed subconsciously, but in the next moment, an idea suddenly emerged in his heart.

'He's testing me? !Did Sachi see my desire for this fruit? ! '

It is always easy for people to see things with their own eyes. There is a saying that a gentleman's heart is judged by a villain's heart. This is not a good thing, but it cannot be avoided casually.

The same half-full glass of water, in the eyes of an optimistic person, is a glass half-full of water, and in the eyes of a pessimistic person, it is a glass half-empty.

Some people will think that if they add a little more, the glass of water will be full; some people will think that if they drink a little more, the glass of water will be completely empty.

What kind of person he sees is what kind of world he sees.

As a person who hides huge ambitions and is accustomed to wearing a mask to interact with others, Teach should also look like this to other people.

He has no selfless kindness to others, so in his eyes, such a person does not exist.

One second Sachi was thinking about selling the fruit, and the next second he asked him if he wanted the fruit. Thinking about it, he knew something was wrong!

"Captain Thatch, stop joking. This devil fruit is so important. How could I be so selfish as to eat it myself?"

Tiqi showed an honest and honest smile, and Sachi was a little moved after hearing Tiqi's answer, thought about it, and said: "If you change your mind, you must say it as soon as possible.

After all, Devil Fruits are very rare, and even we can't get them easily. "

"I understand, Captain Thatch."

Tiqi smiled innocently and nodded, but his eyes kept observing Sachi, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he no longer showed any doubts.

Saqi didn't ask Tiqi any more. After all, Tiqi said he didn't want it anymore. How can a grown man do so many coy things? If he didn't want it, he wouldn't want it. Could it be that he still forced him to eat it?

Thatch brought the Devil Fruit back to his cabin. He did not notice that during the process of walking into the cabin, Teach kept staring at his back, and the power of the claw knife continued to increase. .

When Thatch put the Devil Fruit back in his cabin and walked back to the deck, the White Group's harvesting work had been completed, leaving enough supplies for the unlucky pirate group to leave the Whitebeard Pirates' waters. , then said:

"Brothers!!! Returning!!!!"

"Captain Sage, are you having a big dinner tonight?"

A crew member asked happily. Sachi smiled, nodded affirmatively, and said: "The harvest is so great today, even if we eat more meat and drink more wine, Marco will not say anything more."

"Okay!!! There's meat to eat! There's wine to drink!!!"

The crew members cheered, not only the fourth team, but also the crew members of the second team shouted happily. The second team has no captain until now, and this time Saqi also led it by the way.

And since they are all brothers in the same group, Sachi will not treat them differently. Since there is meat to eat and wine to drink, everyone should eat and drink together. Happiness needs to be shared.

When everyone started singing and dancing happily, the expression on Tiqi's face was the ugliest. Even the expressions of the pirates who were robbed after the robbery were much prettier than Tiqi. .

Teach looked at Thatch, and the hand holding the claw knife was already trembling slightly. Now he is starting to return. Even if there is a party tonight, which will delay some time, at most, he will return to the Moby Dick tomorrow afternoon. .

Once the fruit returns to the Moby-Dick, he has no chance of obtaining the fruit that will fulfill his ambitions.

'We must take action!And that's tonight.Captain Sage, when I achieve my great achievements, I will definitely not forget your contribution, but tonight... I can only ask you to die first. '

Tiqi made up his mind, and stayed in the corner of the ship like a transparent person as always, with a straightforward smile on his face, but his eyes were full of danger.

'Then it's daddy... I originally wanted to wait until you die before I can use your fruit, but now it seems that it's no longer possible. You probably won't give me another chance to get close to you.

The next time we meet, I can only kill you and inherit your fruits. '

As he thought about it, there was some mist in Tiqi's eyes. He was immersed in his "soft heart". Sure enough, Tiqi was also a man of love and justice.

Leaving behind a group of unlucky guys who were suspicious of each other, Saatchi led two squadrons and headed towards the waters where the Moby Dick was located. Saatchi, as the captain and chef of the squadron, had already entered the cabin and started working.

The main ship of the Whitebeard Pirates has a small number of sixteen divisions, and each division only has 100 people. After all, these people live on the Mobydick and four sub-ships all year round.

If there are too many people, the Moby Dick will not be able to accommodate them, but there is a very important reason why the Whitebeard Pirates are outstanding, and that is that they have dozens of fleets that can be called upon.

The strength of these fleets may not be considered strong, but their efficiency in responding to calls and their loyalty to Whitebeard are no less than that of the navy's detachment branches.

Of course, no matter how few people there were on the main ship, there were still more than 1000 people, and the two detachments here also had 200 people. Therefore, Saatchi was busy until the sun began to set, and he finally finished the preliminary preparations.

Exquisite meals are not suitable for this kind of party. In other words, pirates don't like exquisite meals at all. Barbecue and spirits are their favorites.

Saatchi also prepared it in this way. He marinated barrels of meat, and each barrel was paired with different ingredients so that the crew would not get tired of it.

After he finished preparing the seasonings and marinated the meat, he asked other crew members to start skewering the meat, while he led another part of the crew to prepare the grill on the deck.

Since the types of meat are different, the seasoning and marinating techniques are also different. Naturally, different grilling methods are required to perfectly present the flavor of these meats.

Low-temperature fumigation, high-fire charcoal grilling, or pan-frying on an iron plate, as well as the combination of these techniques, only Sachi knew, so he worked for a while before all the work was ready.

The people from the second team also completed the temporary dining table and distributed all the collected wine to each table.

Following Saatchi's demonstration, he put the arm-thick skewers on the grill. The banquet that people on the shore thought was too rough, but that people at sea thought was extremely exquisite, finally began.

Some people eat meat, some drink wine, some chat, and some sing and dance.

Of course, there were also some people who complained about some irresponsible person on the ship who used the whetstone and the whetstone and put them back without leveling and maintaining them, causing his knives to be worn out.

Some people, after a few glasses of wine, start to inquire about the women of the right age in their partners' families, sometimes as "brothers", sometimes as "brothers-in-law" and so on.

Everyone was talking about trivial matters. If you ignore the fighting part of their conversation, in fact... it is no different from a family dinner.

As one of the most senior people in the second team and a friend in Sachi's eyes, Tiqi was pulled by Sachi to enjoy the barbecue that Sachi had cooked for him.

Tich naturally reciprocated the favor, pouring cups of wine into Sage's mouth. Sage didn't feel anything wrong with Tich's extraordinarily enthusiastic attitude today.

It was just that Teach was a little grateful to him because he had said encouraging words to him today. As for the wine that Teach poured for him, Sachi would not refuse every drop of wine and drank as much as he had.

Until late at night, Thatch was already drunk and unconscious, and the others were not much better. Even the pirates who were supposed to be vigil tonight were allowed to drink, and naturally they were all drunk.

Because they don't think they will encounter any risks in the Whitebeard Sea. This is their experience after joining the Whitebeard Pirates. As long as their father is around, they will be safe.

Tiqi half resisted Sachi and walked towards his room. The journey went smoothly without anyone blocking him.

After entering Thachi's cabin, Teach saw the dark fruit placed directly on the table without any protection.

At this moment, Teach no longer concealed his desire for the Dark Fruit, and directly threw Sachi onto his ship.

"Hmm~"

Although he had already entered the state of fragmentation, the impact was quite heavy. Thatch still let out a slight groan of pain, but Teach seemed not to hear it at all. His focus was entirely on the fruit.

Reaching out to pick up the fruit, Tiqi swallowed subconsciously, his eyes widened, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise, revealing his mouth that was missing several teeth.

The Dark Fruit was unexpectedly... obtained so easily. Now he only needs to bite it, and he can begin to realize his ambition!

"Um~cough cough~"

Thatch suddenly coughed twice and sat up. He staggered up and rubbed his neck. Even though he was drunk, he still felt some pain. He suddenly saw Teach holding the fruit and was confused. Then he asked with a smile:

"Changed my mind..."

"呲呲~"

Just when Saatchi was asking questions, Teach's claw knife in his left hand suddenly penetrated Saatchi's body. His left hand, which was holding the handle of the claw knife, did not waver at all.

Sachi's whole body froze. The strong drunkenness and the rapid secretion of adrenaline and dopamine made him unable to notice the pain in his body, and the drunkenness faded quickly.

He looked at Tikki in disbelief, wondering why Tikki would suddenly do this to him. You must know that the Whitebeard Pirates have an iron rule, that is, they cannot harm their friends who have joined the group.

Sachi's throat kept rolling and his lips trembled, as if he wanted to ask a question.

"呲呲~"

But before he could ask any questions, Tikki pulled out the claw knife, then stabbed it in hard, and then pulled it out again. When he pulled it out, Tikki also leaned forward and lay on Tikki's body.

Tiqi used his blood-stained left hand to hold Sage firmly. A tear fell from the corner of Tiqi's eye. He caught the tear with the back of his right hand holding the fruit, and then slowly let Sage Qi fell to the ground.

Looking at the teardrop on the back of his right hand, he saw...his black-bearded Marshall D. Teach was a man of flesh and blood, affectionate and righteous, and he would actually shed tears over such a thing.

He looked at Saatchi who was lying on the ground, his body still twitching subconsciously once or twice, and said: "Brother, people's dreams will never stop. For my dream, please die."
