Chapter 520: Come and be my son
The Whitebeard Pirates, one of the overlords of the New World, not only have sixteen divisions under their command, but also command and lead more than forty affiliated pirate groups.
Its captain, Edward Newgate, was nicknamed "Whitebeard" because of his crescent-shaped white beard.
Moreover, Edward Newgate Whitebeard is one of the Four Emperors of the New World. He is known as "the strongest man in the world" and is known as one of the three legendary pirates along with Roger and Shiki the Golden Lion.
At this moment, on the Moby Dick.
"Gulala, it turns out that wine is only refreshing if you drink it in big gulps."
On the deck, a giant human with a height of 666cm was holding an extra-large wine glass and drinking the wine in the glass in one breath.
The drinking giant is Whitebeard. Although he is tall, he is not a giant, but just an ordinary human. In the world of One Piece, there are humans of all sizes.
"Dad, your health is not good to begin with. You should drink less strong liquor."
Marco, who was standing next to Whitebeard, rolled his dead eyes and couldn't help but give a warning.
Although he said this, Marco also knew that what he said was just talk and his father would definitely not listen.
As expected, in response to these words of concern, Whitebeard smiled and said, "Gulala... Marco, we are pirates. Pirates should live as they please. If we want to drink, we drink. If we want to hold a party, we hold a party. This is what pirates are like!"
Hearing this, Marco sighed: "Even so, Dad, you have to take care of your health. After all, your body has..."
Whitebeard is now in his sixties, which is not considered young. Moreover, due to the many battles he fought in his youth, his body has been left with countless hidden injuries.
In this situation, the first option is to take good care of yourself, but Whitebeard has never cared about his body. He still eats, drinks, and lives as he pleases.
“Gulala…”
Feeling his son's concern for him, Whitebeard felt warm in his heart, and the smile on his face deepened. He laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry about that little injury. After all, I am Whitebeard, Gulala... hm?"
Suddenly, Whitebeard stopped smiling, frowned and looked at the sea in the distance.
The originally calm sea surface suddenly stirred up huge waves, and then there was sword energy that seemed to cut everything into pieces. Even from a distance, one could still feel its terrifying sharpness.
Everyone on the deck noticed their father's unusual reaction and looked in the direction Whitebeard was looking. Then they also saw the sword energy that connected the sky and the earth.
"Is this... a flying slash?"
Flower Sword Bista held his two swords in his hands, looking at the burst of sword energy with an expression of disbelief.
After the sword energy dissipated, a huge gully that stretched as far as the eye could see appeared in the sea. There was nothing in the gully, and even seawater could not flow in.
"It's really scary. I don't know who did it."
Suddenly, a voice sounded nearby. Hearing this, Flower Sword Vista nodded and agreed: "With such power, even the world's number one swordsman Hawkeye Mihawk may not be able to do it."
"Of course. No matter how strong Hawkeye Mihawk is, he can't create a sword energy that is tens of thousands of meters high. This sword energy is condensed and not dispersed. It is extremely sharp. It is obvious that he is a master swordsman. Don't you think so?"
The voice next to him said again, and Flower Sword Vista nodded and turned his head away: "That's right, it seems that you also... Wait, who the hell are you?!"
"I?"
Xia Yu casually picked up a piece of barbecue on the banquet table and said while eating: "Don't bother me, I'm just a passerby, the kind that is used for commentary."
Vista's exclamation attracted the others to look over. They saw a stranger eating their meat and drinking their wine without paying any attention to others. All the members of the Whitebeard Pirates were shocked.
"Hey, good afternoon, everyone."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xia Yu wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth and raised his hand to greet them.
“Gulala la la la… little kid, you’re eating so deliciously, do you know who I am?”
Whitebeard raised his eyebrows and looked at the strange young man with interest. According to his observation Haki, this young man was clearly an ordinary person.
But it is impossible for an ordinary person to bypass the perception of everyone on the ship and still eat and drink for free.
"Of course I know, Whitebeard."
Xia Yu casually put down the wine glass in his hand, looked at the six-meter-tall white beard in front of him, grinned and said: "Old man, you are quite to my taste, come and be my son, you can bear my name and gallop on this sea without restraint!"
After these words were spoken, not only Whitebeard's sons, but even Whitebeard himself was stunned.
Why did this sound so wrong? He had always said this to others, and this was the first time he had heard someone say this to him.
Even if he wanted him to be his son, the age difference was not acceptable. He was already in his sixties, and the young man in front of him was only in his twenties at most.
"What did you say, asshole?"
"How dare you humiliate my father like this! You're courting death!"
"If Dad becomes your son, then we will become your grandchildren, right? What a sweet dream!"
After a few seconds, everyone reacted. Before Whitebeard said anything, his sons had already started roaring angrily and picked up weapons to teach this daring guy a lesson.
In response, Xia Yu just smiled, and suddenly his face turned cold: "Children should not interrupt when adults are talking!"
After saying that, Xia Yu grabbed the long sword at his waist with his backhand and slashed all of Whitebeard's sons away.
The casual slash formed a giant sword energy, which directly knocked all of Whitebeard's captains into the sea, splashing endless waves!
Even in the New World, these captains were famous pirates, but they were all defeated by Xia Yu's casual wave.
"asshole!!"
In the sky, blue flames ignited on Marco's body and his arms turned into flaming wings. Because he had the ability to fly, he did not fall into the sea.
Marco is the owner of the Animal-type Mythical Beast Phoenix Fruit. As long as he is not killed in one blow, he can recover with his extremely strong recovery ability.
But the slash that just landed on him almost tore him in half. Even though he had strong recovery abilities, it also greatly consumed his physical strength.
"There's actually a fish that slipped through the net?"
Xia Yu scratched his head while looking at Marco in the sky, then raised the long knife in his hand and threw it at the other party with a swish.
It's a pity that his sword is not the Immortal Slash, otherwise he really wants to try which one is stronger between the Immortal Slash and the Phoenix.
In an instant, a hint of panic appeared in Marco's eyes. Facing the flying long knife, he felt that he had no way to avoid it.
clang!
But just as the long sword got close, a naginata suddenly chopped down and knocked the long sword away.
Whitebeard wielded "Kurokumo-Giri", one of the Twelve Supreme Swords, to help his son block the unavoidable attack.
After blocking it, Whitebeard narrowed his eyes slightly, a red light flashed in his eyes, and a strong and domineering aura that seemed to split the sky poured out.
“Gulala… Boy, you dared to attack my sons. It seems that you are ready to become my enemy.”
Faced with this tyrannical domineering aura, in an instant, the deck, wooden boxes, tables... were all damaged to varying degrees.
However, Xia Yu sneered as if nothing had happened: "That's it? You'd better not embarrass yourself by showing it to others. Even if you don't find it embarrassing, I still find it embarrassing."
Whitebeard was shocked to see that his Conqueror's Haki was useless. Even if the other party released a Conqueror's Haki that could compete with his, he would not be so surprised.
But the other party's completely calm behavior was really hard for him to imagine.
Stopping the suppression of the domineering domineering, Whitebeard took a deep breath, raised his naginata, Kusukime, high in both hands, and with the dark armament domineering attached, he chopped down fiercely at Xia Yu.
A tearing wail sounded in the air, and Kurogiri struck straight down, with black and red lightning entwined around it.
However, Xia Yu did not dodge or even draw his weapon. He just raised his right hand in a very pretentious manner and made a "yeah" gesture.
clang!!
The huge naginata collided with the small finger, but the expected split in two did not happen. The small finger easily clamped Whitebeard's huge naginata, and the finger did not even have the armament color attached to it.
“This…this is impossible!”
Marco in mid-air was dumbfounded. Even if his father did not use the power of the devil fruit, it would be impossible for him to be blocked so easily against such a full-strength attack.
Is the other party...really a human?
"You are really a monster, boy."
Whitebeard pulled hard at his naginata, but the huge naginata didn't move at all. It was obvious that the opponent only held the blade with two fingers. How could he have so much strength?
In response to Whitebeard's admiration, Xia Yu did not answer. Instead, he used two fingers to lift up the naginata along with Whitebeard himself.
boom!!!
With an explosion, Xia Yu raised his naginata and smashed it down hard, directly knocking Whitebeard into the deck.
Whitebeard stood up in a panic and tentatively pulled the naginata, but the naginata remained motionless. He had no choice but to give up the weapon in his hand. Then he clenched his fist, and a ball of light instantly appeared above his fist. This was the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit!
Parahuman Tremor-Tremor Fruit!
This fruit is known as the most powerful superhuman devil fruit, and is said to have the power to destroy the world!
Because of the power of this fruit, Whitebeard is also known as the strongest man in the world. He has possessed this power for many years and can use the ability of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit with ease.
In an instant, a huge vibration force gathered in the ball of light. Whitebeard clenched his fists and smashed them hard towards the side of him.
The vibration echoed, and his fist smashed the air directly, creating cracks. No, it could be said that it directly shattered the space.
The shattered space spread rapidly, rushing towards Xia Yu, as if to tear him into pieces.
Xia Yu stood still, threw away the Cong Yunqie in his hand, and then waved his hand to call back his long sword that was knocked away.
"Have you seen... Space Slash?"
Xia Yu shook the long sword in his hand, put the sword into the scabbard, and assumed the posture of Iai Slash.
clang!
A flash of lightning!
Whitebeard only felt a flash before his eyes, and the space that was shattered like a spider web was split into two. The knife shadow broke through the layers of space fragments and rushed in front of him in an instant.
Out of instinct, Whitebeard wanted to stretch out his hand to block it, but his body couldn't keep up with the speed of his thinking. When the knife flashed across his face, he could only raise his hand.
Snap!
Something fell to the ground, and Whitebeard thought that his head was chopped off, but he touched his neck and found that his head was still safely on his neck.
When I looked down, I saw a very familiar crescent-shaped beard.
"My...beard?"
Whitebeard widened his eyes and touched his lips in astonishment. His upper lip was smooth and bare.
His beard is gone!
Can Whitebeard still be called Whitebeard without a beard? Whitebeard doesn't know. He only knows that he must look ridiculous now, because the beard that has been with him for decades is gone.
“Dad…”
At this moment, Marco rescued his companions who fell into the water and returned to Whitebeard's side.
Looking at Whitebeard without his beard, he was a little confused.
You know what, the old man looks a lot younger without a beard. And his beard is really magical. It has clearly fallen to the ground, but it hasn't spread out.
“Not bad, not bad.”
At this moment, Xia Yu's smiling voice suddenly sounded: "Without that weird beard, you look a lot younger, White Beard. How about it? Do you want to be my son?"
Whitebeard looked unhappy, but he did not attack again.
Xia Yu's move just now had made him realize that he was no match for the young man in front of him. If the other party had not intended to take his life, it might not be his beard that would have fallen, but his head.
"You suddenly came to me to show me your power, what on earth do you want to do?"
Whitebeard picked up his beard with a gloomy face. Although the beard fell off, it did not fall apart. Maybe he could stick it back on later.
How can a white beard be without a beard? I have to stick it back.
"Oh, by the way, I have something else to talk to you about."
Xia Yu scratched his head. If White Beard hadn’t reminded him, he would have almost forgotten.
"It's nothing serious. I just want to tell you that the era of pirates is over. Soon, I want you to bring your sons to directly announce the end of the great pirate era."
"Since Roger started this great pirate era, how about you end it? I'm giving you enough face."
Facing Xia Yu's words, Whitebeard's face was gloomy. When he was about to say something, Xia Yu showed a kind smile: "Whitebeard, you don't want me to execute your sons in front of you, right?"
Everyone has weaknesses, especially in the world of One Piece, many people don't care about their own lives, but once someone related to them is mentioned, they will become very obedient.
Maybe Whitebeard doesn't care about his own life, but he definitely won't let go of his sons.
It's this kind of behavior... it's a bit inhuman.
Hearing this, Whitebeard gritted his teeth, finally sighed deeply, sat down cross-legged, and nodded silently.
Marco wanted to say something, but his father had already nodded, so he could only wait in silence.
Seeing this, Xia Yu shrugged and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. Let me tell you a secret. Big Mom is in the same situation as you. I don't know if Kaido is still alive, but the people that madman Kaido didn't care about are probably dead."
"As for Red-Haired Shanks, although he is one of the Four Emperors, he has no territory and wanders around holding banquets all day long, so he is probably the most carefree one among the Four Emperors. Of course, he also knows the least. I'm afraid that before he can react, the situation in the ocean has already changed."
