I am a Celestial Dragon!

"Haha, Rayleigh knows you said that to him, then he will definitely fight you tooth and nail, Newgate."

Gawain responded with a smile. The two clinked glasses and drank a glass of wine. Gawain responded thoughtfully.

"But what you said... does make sense. My strength has really become the shortcoming of my entire force.

This kind of shortcoming can never be shown when dealing with ordinary opponents, because not everyone can rush in front of me like you with Rayleigh, Gion and Yixiao.

But when I meet you, or meet other pirate emperors in the future.

Or if someone like Yakuza assassinates me...

No matter how many people protect me, as long as I can't protect myself, I can hardly escape death.

Killing me is something that you, the top strong men, would see.

It's nothing more than a decision.

A decision whether to die with me or not! "

As he spoke, Gawain frowned slightly, and he asked Whitebeard seriously.

“Before, the top strong men around me were all fruitless strong men.

Yixiao was here to help. I hadn't had time to chat with him yet, so I didn't have the chance to ask him about the difference between fruit and no fruit.

But you happen to be here, and you are actually willing to talk to me about this.

So Newgate, talk to me about the difference between fruit and fruitlessness. "

"Gu la la la, what difference does that make? It's nothing more than preference!"

Whitebeard waved his hand grandly.

"If you want to say that there is any difference between eating the fruit and not eating the fruit, then I must tell you something as the number one person in the world.

It makes no difference whether you eat the fruit or not! "

Whitebeard pointed at his heart and continued to speak to Gawain.

"The reason why this fruit is called a devil fruit is because it represents a deal with the devil from the beginning.

What deal?

Use a lifelong weakness in exchange for a lifelong miracle!

But if you think about it carefully, Gawain, no matter how many weaknesses a person has in this life, they should not be able to obtain any miracles.

As for Devil Fruit, as long as you are willing to accept the price of being rejected by the sea, you can save decades of training and transform yourself from an ordinary guy to a strong enough person.

I read the newspaper a few days ago and it was said that a young man had eaten the Shao Shao fruit.

When I saw it, haha, isn’t this a lucky kid?

I don't know what that kid was like before.

But after he eats the Shashao Fruit, I can almost conclude that as long as he doesn't sit back and look at the sky and be complacent about his current strength, then it can at least reach the level of Marco.

It's funny, right, but this is actually the essence of the world. Countless people have spent their entire lives trying to reach a height that can be completely compensated by a piece of fruit!

It's like there is a wall in front of you. The wall is thirty meters high. You have to jump to the opposite side of the wall.

In the beginning, you can only jump one or two meters high, so you keep working hard and working hard.

In the end, many people relied on hard work to train themselves to the point where they could jump five or six meters.

But even so, they will never be able to jump over this wall in their lifetime.

There are also some people who work harder, so they jump and jump to a height of seven or eight meters.

In this way, even if they still can't jump over the wall, they at least jumped over others.

There are also some people whose talents are so good that others can only jump seven or eight meters high after practicing for a lifetime, but they can also practice for a lifetime and can jump up to 30 meters, and they can jump to the wall in one fell swoop. That side.

As for such people, they are Garp, Roger, Zephyr, Sora, and even Rayleigh and the bad-tempered female marine.

In addition to this kind of people climbing over the wall, there is another kind of people who jump and jump and see a ladder.

So they brought in the ladder.

But everyone's luck is different. Some people moved ladders that were more than ten meters high, and some people moved ladders that were not even higher than the height they could jump from.

There are some lucky people here who moved a ladder of more than 20 meters.

So they stood on the ladder and took off!

Although they could only jump seven or eight meters originally, they finally jumped over the wall!

When I say this, are you about to ask, what would happen if a person who could jump over a wall by himself stood on a ladder and jumped?

The result is that no matter how strong people choose the ladder, the only achievement they can achieve is to jump over that wall!

What we only look at is whether we can jump over this wall, we don’t look at who can jump higher, gula la la!

On the opposite side of the wall stood the old man, Lingling, Kaido and Shanks, the brat, Garp, Sora and Sengoku, and juniors like Red Dog and Green Chicken.

This is what I want to tell you. There is no difference in the world of the strong whether you eat the fruit or not!

We will only consider whether the other party can fight with us. Who cares about such boring questions as why he can fight with us!

Because at our level, it is meaningless who can jump higher. Only the weak will keep staring at the heights of themselves and others!

Lingling and I have been fighting for decades, and I have been fighting with Warring States and others for decades. We do have strengths and weaknesses, but to us, who can jump the highest is of any use?

If we talk about height, then I and Garp are probably the highest jumpers in the past thirty years.

Karp relies on talent and hard work, while I rely on ladders and hard work.

But what can we do? We are better than the two of us. Even if I fight to the death with two generals, I will drink the sea, and Garp will flee even if he is surrounded by two pirate emperors.

Even Rocks back then….

Gu la la la, that guy is really strong, his strength is almost the same as that of the Red Earl!

But when Rocks encountered the siege of Roger and Garp, he was defeated easily.

As for the Red Earl, he was also said to be a guy who could fight a whole team of Pirate Emperors like me and Lingling with the power of one person.

But let me tell the truth, it doesn’t matter to me, Lingling, or Kaido.

Even if I don't bring my crew, even if we are alone, we can still fight against an entire Yonko pirate group.

After all, apart from a few of us, no matter what the three disasters or the three generals, a brat like that can be knocked over with just two punches, right?

So the Red Earl met Sora, and after the two of them fought to the death, the Red Earl won.

But then, the Red Earl was captured by Garp, who had just arrived.

Is he necessarily inferior to Garp?

Not necessarily. If that guy and Garp could fight, they would have to fight for at least several days and nights before they could decide the winner.

But he was easily taken down, because even if our group of people who jumped over the wall jumped much higher than others, they couldn't compete with the combined efforts of two guys who jumped over the wall! "

"I see."

Facing Whitebeard's explanation, Gawain nodded clearly, and then he smiled and said to Whitebeard.

“Actually, I have always had the idea that I should first rely on exercise to reach my limit.

If there is really no way to make progress, I will choose to eat the fruit. "

"Goo la la la!"

Gawain's words immediately made Whitebeard laugh. While laughing, he patted Gawain on the shoulder.

“You guy, you actually have such childish and passionate thoughts!

It really made me laugh, Gawain!

I can guess that Rayleigh and the female navy must be very supportive of your idea!

Because they themselves relied on exercise to get to where they are now, of course they will support your decision, and they don't even want you to eat the fruit.

After all, they are all successful people without eating the fruits. None of them will think that their choice is wrong, and they are willing to tell you the choice they think is right!

But let me ask you, Gawain, is your goal just to be the best in the world who does not eat fruits?

Your goal is obviously to unify the entire world!

As a person who is determined to dominate the world, even I am regarded as a tool by you, so shouldn't your own strength be just your tool?

Since it is just a tool, of course you must choose the fastest, most useful and most efficient tool!

You are obviously such a smart kid, can't you even figure this out? "

"Haha, that makes sense, Newgate!"

Whitebeard's words really woke up Gawain. He nodded thoughtfully, and then spoke seriously.

"Your suggestion..., I will think about it carefully in the next few days!

But that's all for the future. As for now, you and I should just enjoy the hot springs.

By the way, tell me more about your past, I'm very interested! "

…

…

…

Time flies, two hours pass by in a hurry.

On the Chambord Islands….

Because the Black Bird had not made any movement for too long, the television broadcast had ended long ago.

Now, the news about the previous collision between the Whitebeard Group and the Gaowen Group has already spread to the Shampoo Land and the world.

Morgans' newspaper is now working overtime to print this news.

And near Shampoo Pier...

Looking at the calm sea in the distance, Aokiji and Porusalino stared at each other with big eyes.

Unable to bear it any longer, Aokiji whispered to wake up Garp who was standing there sleeping.

"Mr. Karp, your sense of knowledge is much better than mine, so...how are they doing now?"

"snort?"

Being woken up suddenly, Garp was so angry that he got out of bed, but looking at the admiring juniors, he also thought about what he had beaten him a few days ago.

So Garp responded angrily.

"I can only see that the guys from the two groups are sitting together drinking.

As for Newgate and Gawain, humph, I can no longer see them in that big ship! "

After the words fell, Garp reached out and rubbed his head.

"Why is everything so weird, whether it's Little Peach Rabbit or Rayleigh, even Whitebeard has become weird now.

That's a Celestial Dragon. Why don't these old ghosts care about the identity of a Celestial Dragon?

Even I didn't bother to talk to the group of Tianlong people. What happened to each of them and they rushed forward!

Is there something wrong? ! ! "

After saying that, Garp shook his head depressedly.

Listening to Garp's words, Porusalino curled up his lips.

"Hey, old man, didn't you see the fascinating, domineering confrontation just now?

Tsk tsk, even I feel fascinated when I see such a domineering look. It is normal for Gao Wensheng to be admired by others for having such a domineering look~. "

Having said this, Kizaru raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was only half past four...

So he raised his head out of boredom and looked at the sun in the sky.

Regarding the issue of the navy getting off work too late, which makes it impossible to guarantee rest and cannot do its best to kill the pirates, it’s time for me to take the time to mention it to Marshal Sengoku and Commander Sora!

On the side, Aokiji said to Garp thoughtfully, ignoring Kizaru who was always so lazy.

"Mr. Karp, how about... let's get closer and take a look!

Gao Wensheng is a Celestial Dragon. Even if he goes to sea to form his own force, he will still be a Celestial Dragon!

I feel a little uneasy when such people disappear together with Whitebeard!

Once something goes wrong... "

"oh?"

After listening to Aokiji's words, Garp glanced at Aokiji curiously.

"Kuzan, why are you getting nervous about a Celestial Dragon?

If you were in the past, you would have run away on a bicycle long ago if you encountered this kind of thing, right?

Something is wrong, something is really wrong! "

Having said this, Garp strode forward, waving his hands as he walked.

"But you're right, huh, no matter how much I despise those Celestial Dragon trash, I still have to look after them.

In addition, two legendary pirates, Rayleigh and Whitebeard, are also there!

Haha, it’s time for me to go over and meet them, and then talk to them about the navy’s rules again! "

"Tsk, Lieutenant General Garp, actually you just want to catch up with old friends, right?"

Kizaru curled his lips and smiled. While smiling, he and Garp Aoki boarded their warship.

…

At the same time, on the Black Bird, Little Uta was standing among everyone, jumping up and down, dancing cheerfully, and singing a song with an unusually bright rhythm.

Around Uta, the members of the White Beard Group and Gaowen Group clearly applauded Uta.

Bai Xing played the drums especially hard, and even her little hands turned red. As she watched, she became more and more determined to become a singer.

If he could sing such a beautiful song, then he could also help Lord Gawain relieve his stress.

Unlike now, I can only be like a child, being raised by adults to be fat and white, ugh~.

Wait for Uta's song to end, and then start preparing for the next song.

Not far away from Shirahoshi, Rayleigh put his sword on his lap and turned to look at the shivering reporters in the distance.

"Hey, those guys, are you sure you didn't take a picture of us getting together, right?"

"Mr. Rayleigh!"

As soon as Rayleigh finished speaking, Shiliu, who was holding a cigar in his mouth, showed an extremely vicious smile.

"If you don't want the news of our harmonious coexistence with Whitebeard to spread, then... killing them is the best way!"

Having said this, Xiliu looked at the reporter fiercely.

"Hehe, if you don't want to dirty your hands, then I am willing to use my sword for you!"

thump!

As soon as Xi Liu finished speaking, the reporters all fell to the ground. They knelt there and looked at everyone with infinite sadness.

"No, I have an old one on top, a young one on the bottom, and a bunch of snails waiting to be fed in the middle to take care of!

Spare...wuwuwu, spare me! ! ! "

Accompanied by the cries of the reporters, the troika of the white beards, Marco Jozi and Sage, looked at me and I looked at you.

After a while, Marco rubbed his pineapple head lazily.

"Why do you feel like they are more like a pirate group than us?"

"Well, Mr. Rayleigh is indeed a legendary pirate, but who is that guy and where is he from?"

Jozi looked at Xi Liu and wondered.

…

In the distance, Shiliu's brows twitched. From which eye did you see that I am a pirate?

You are the pirates, and your whole family is pirates! ! !

With dissatisfaction, Shiliu said to Marco with veins twitching.

"Hmph, you have misunderstood. After Mr. Rayleigh is recognized by the adults, he will no longer be a thief who will be hunted down by the navy!

As for me, I am not a pirate like you, I am the deputy director of Imperial Prison! "

"Why?"

"What?"

"Impel City?!"

As soon as Xi Liu finished speaking, Bai Tuan and his group suddenly looked at Xi Liu with fear in their eyes, and then they gathered around and whispered softly...

"Impel City is indeed a scary place, and their deputy director looks really vicious!"

For a moment, Shiliu took a deep breath.

You can't get angry. They are barely guests of the BOSS, so you can't get angry.

So in anger, Xiliu glanced hard at the reporter who was kneeling there and shaking.

Then, Shiliu waved his hand to Rayleigh.

"Mr. Lei Li, even if we don't need to kill the witnesses.

Then we should at least get rid of all the camera bugs on them, right? "

The reporters on the side, the phone bugs who had fallen asleep because their phones were turned off, all raised their heads and looked at Xi Liu in horror.

If you want to say this, men, please stop pretending to be asleep!

Devil, right? ! !
