Pirates: Who is the real sun god?

Somon Island, late at night.

Bai Tuan and his group surrounded Jin Tuan, with extremely serious and earnest expressions. They all looked at Jin intently and listened to Jin's story.

"Let me tell you, my boss once told me that a truly strong person would never bother to swing a knife at a weak person. Waving a knife at a weak person is an act of incompetence..."

After the war, Barrett was out of danger, and with Oden's introduction, King quickly became familiar with the Byakugan PILOTS.

The banquet started with the White Group, but who would have thought that as the banquet went on, everyone in the White Group was attracted by the conversation between Jin and Oden, and they surrounded Jin and listened to his story.

Jin was not afraid at all and started talking in a babble.

"We are pirates. If we don't plunder, how can we survive?" Squard interrupted with disdain.

"You are Squard!"

Jin glanced at Squard and said disdainfully, "My boss told me that your pirate group was destroyed by Captain Roger, so you have always resented Captain Roger, but you dare not face Captain Roger directly. So my boss told me that people like you are typical cowards, the kind of people I just mentioned who only dare to swing their swords at the weak."

"Asshole, I'm not a coward." Squard glared at Jhin with a red face and thick neck.

"Scuyard calm down."

Marco, who was sitting next to him, grabbed Squard.

"That's right, Scuyard, why are you so excited? Listen to what he says."

On the other side, Vista glared at Squard with dissatisfaction.

Since arriving on the island, they knew why the war happened. It was all because Squard's men slaughtered civilians wantonly, and were encountered by Jhin and Barrett, which triggered the war.

As a swordsman, Vista has his own thoughts in mind and has always disdained things like massacring civilians.

So he also had great disdain for Squard.

"Marco let me go."

Squard shook his arms, trying to break free from Marco. Vista's disdainful look hurt him deeply, and he wanted to leave.

"Squad, sit down."

At this moment, Whitebeard spoke, his tone brooking no rejection.

"Dad——"

Squard was startled and sat down dejectedly.

"Jin, please continue."

Seeing Squard sitting down, Whitebeard looked at Jhin.

"Okay." Jin nodded, not panicking at all, and spoke slowly, "In fact, my boss said that people like Squard are very dangerous because they are blinded by hatred. Once they are used by others, they may slash at their companions."

"Asshole, don't slander me. I would never draw a knife at my companions." Squard was furious and glared at Jhin with red eyes.

"I think you do."

Suddenly, a slightly weak voice came from behind everyone.

Everyone turned around and saw Barrett, wrapped in bandages and with a pale face, walking towards them.

"Boss."

When Jhin saw Barrett, he jumped over.

"Barrett boy, I hope you can make it clear. I don't want my son to be wronged."

Whitebeard looked at Barrett with cold eyes.

“Squard, if someone in the White Group hid the truth from you and made you fight for Captain Roger, and almost all of your crew members were killed or injured.

At this time, someone on the battlefield instigated you, saying that the man actually had a close relationship with Captain Roger and deliberately let you die, would you attack that man? " Barrett ignored Whitebeard and looked directly at Squard.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to Squard.

"I will. I will kill that traitor."

Squard raised his head, his face became ferocious, his eyes flashed with murderous light, and he stared at Barrett viciously.

"What if that man is not a traitor, but clears a path for you to leave, and he alone covers your retreat?"

Barrett's slightly weak voice was like a flash of lightning, directly piercing through Squard's defense.

"How is this possible? There is no such great person." Squard roared angrily.

But he didn't notice the flash of disappointment in Whitebeard's eyes.

Some of the others agreed, some were thoughtful, and Marco looked around at everyone's expressions, keeping them in mind.

"What if that man is Whitebeard!" Barrett whispered, but it exploded like a bomb.

"Dad——"

Everyone in the Whitebeard Group looked at Whitebeard in unison.

"Hualala - my sons will never have such a day. I am Whitebeard!" Whitebeard took a sip of wine and laughed out loud.

"Yeah! Daddy is the strongest in the world."

"Exactly, who has this ability?"

"..."

Everyone in the Baituan burst into laughter.

Barrett smiled but said nothing. With the help of Jhin, he walked to the side and sat down. He was indeed badly injured in today's battle. What he said just now was just a reminder to thank Whitebeard for showing mercy.

However, whether the Baituan members listened or not was not something he could control.

But there are also smart people in the huge White Group, such as Marco.

When Marco saw Barrett and the other man sitting down, he immediately came over and said in a low voice, "Barrett, is this really possible?"

Barrett looked at Marco in surprise, he didn't expect Marco to come over, nor did he expect that the lazy Marco in the original book would be so wise.

But think about it, Marco will be the chief steward of the White Tiger Pirates in the future, and he won't be able to manage it without a certain level of wisdom.

"Boss, today is not Marco. Your injury won't heal so quickly." Jhin reminded from the side.

"Thank you..." Barrett thanked him, and then said vaguely, "It's not certain now, and it's hard to say in the future. This world not only has pirates, but also the navy and the world government. Who can predict what the future will be like?"

After listening, Marco fell silent and drank his wine silently. He only looked at Squard from time to time, with endless struggle in his eyes.

“When the time comes, things will work out. Instead of worrying, it is better to improve your own strength and then use your strength to crush everything.”

Barrett ate the meat while whispering a reminder as a way of repaying the favor.

Although Marco became powerful later on, his strength was limited. This was because the Whitebeard Pirates were too well protected and had never experienced any battles. As a result, his role was very limited in the subsequent Battle of Marineford.

"Thanks for the guidance."

Hearing this, Marco was startled and raised his glass to toast Barrett.

"No, I should thank you for treating my injury."

Barrett raised his glass and drank it all. He had drunk wine from this world before and it tasted very good. Although the alcohol content was high, with the extraordinary physiques of the people in this world, many people could drink a lot, not to mention someone with an extraordinary physique like Barrett.

"Hello Barrett, I'm Kozuki Oden."

At this time, Kozuki Oden came over and sat down next to the three of them.

"Hello--"

Barrett replied with a smile. Although he didn't think much of Kozuki Oden, he didn't want to hit someone who smiled at him. Moreover, looking at Jin's appearance, it was obvious that he had developed a friendship with Oden, and they had a feeling of mutual appreciation.

"Hahahaha——" Kozuki Oden laughed, "Come on, let's have a drink."

"Oden, you bastard, don't you see that my boss is covered in wounds?"

Jin raised his glass and said dissatisfiedly, "I'll drink with you."

"Hahaha – I didn't notice."

Oden laughed and drank it all in one gulp.

"Jin, I'm not that fragile yet."

Barrett raised his glass and drank it down in one gulp.

Jin had no choice but to drink it all in one gulp.

Seeing this, Marco, who had untied his knot, joined in. They toasted each other, talked about everything under the sun, and had a great time.

On the other side, Bista was also an upright man, and he joined the battlefield carrying wine.

Seeing this, White Beard also laughed and drank a few glasses with the others.

Others became cheerful, gathering in twos and threes, laughing, talking and drinking.

Only Squard had a complicated expression. He was silently thinking and drinking alone.

The banquet was over and it was already dawn. The moon had quietly set at some point, and the White Pirates' ship arrived in the morning light and left in the rising sun.

Barrett and Jhin stood on the broken shore and bid farewell to the White Group.

When the shadow of the ship faded away and they faced the sunlight, Barrett smiled and asked, "Jin, how did you feel about this battle?"

"Oden is very strong, but I can feel that there is still a gap between him and me. If we continue fighting, I will definitely lose." Jhin said seriously.

"Yes! They are very strong." Barrett touched the scar on his chest and sighed softly.

In the previous battle, he tried his best but still failed to stop Whitebeard from using his full strength. If Whitebeard had not held back with the last move, he would have died.

But with that one blow, he overcame his fear and strengthened his faith, allowing him to make a breakthrough, and his Armament Haki broke through the boundaries and reached the third stage.

Overall, he made great progress this time.

"Next time, I will make you use your full strength."

Barrett looked at the red sun with burning eyes, and a scorching light burst out of his eyes.

"Next time, I will definitely defeat you."

Similarly, Jin was also thinking about Oden in his heart and listed Kozuki Oden as the first opponent to be defeated.

"Barrett——"

At this time, a childish voice came from the sea.

"Why is she here?"

Barrett and the other man looked up and saw a ship slowly approaching. They looked at each other in confusion for a moment.
