Chapter 69 Old Enemy
New World, Elbaf.
This is the place of war that is known as the "world's most powerful country". Although there are only towns and villages on the island, its area is no less than that of a country.
Because this is the country of giants, the hometown of the giant family.
Elbaf advocates bravery, and every adult giant warrior possesses extremely terrifying destructive power. The giant pirate group that once shocked the world came from here.
But Elbaf is also an extremely xenophobic and mysterious country that has been cut off from the outside world. It is one of the few non-franchised countries that is at odds with the World government.
Even among pirates, there are only a handful of people who can win their friendship, and Red Hair Pirates is one of them.
In a village bar in Elbaf.
The Red Hair Pirates are drinking and resting here at the moment, because the original bosses of the Giant Pirates "Blue Ogre" Dorry and "Red Ogre" Brogy are friends of the red-haired Shanks, so the red-haired group are also regarded as friends by the Giants.
Compared with the laughter in the past, the red-haired group is now much colder. Ever since the news of Wanokuni came, everyone has been in a bad mood.
At this time, a giant child wearing a warrior helmet ran in excitedly. He heard that the world-famous Red Hair Pirates were coming and came here specially from the village. Although he was a child, his height was still terrifying.
The giant child bypassed everyone and went straight to Shanks who was drinking alone at the bar. He said excitedly: "Red-haired boss, take me with you next time you go to sea! I also want to be a pirate, but Hailding and the others They don’t want me because they think I’m a child!”
Shanks held the wine bowl thoughtfully and did not answer.
The giant wine girl on the side frowned and said: "Quickly give up, the elders will not agree to underage giant warriors going to sea!"
But the giant kid said stubbornly: "I don't care about those nagging old men! I only listen to the red-haired boss!"
"I want to become the world's first giant pirate king!" His eyes were full of confidence and excitement.
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, the entire Red Hair Pirates were shocked, and everyone looked over.
Even Shanks turned to look at his childish face.
At this time, they all recalled the child who said the same thing in a village in East Blue more than ten years ago.
I had mixed feelings for a while.
The giant child felt nervous when he saw him, and asked cautiously: "Have you agreed to take me with you?"
Shanks then patted his helmet, smiled lightly and said, "Come to me when you grow up!"
The giant child looked frustrated and had no choice but to give up. At this time, the wine girl took out the giant glass of juice prepared in advance to comfort him.
At this time, Vice Captain Beckman came up with a wine glass, smoked a cigarette and said: "Young people with dreams are really good. Aren't we the same way back then?"
"It's a pity that this is also a cruel world! How many people's dreams have been killed!"
Shanks silently drank down his exclusive large wine bowl, signaled the wine girl to have another bowl, and then said: "Dreams are not easy to achieve, and those that are easy to achieve are not dreams!"
"A man cannot be alone without experiencing countless desperate situations, tasting the taste of failure and despair, and shedding tears of grief!"
"It's really not a good thing to move too fast!"
Shanks took the wine glass at this time and suddenly said quietly: "Beck, I think it's time for us to get ONEPIECE!"
——————
New World, Beehive Island.
This pirate paradise, which was originally bustling with carnival day and night, was now in a mess, with its foundations falling apart.
The pirate admiral Blackbeard was now wrapped in bandages and his face was patched. Dala La asked: "Is that guy Pizarro awake? Hurry up and let him fix the foundation of this island, otherwise it won't be possible at all." There’s no way to start rebuilding, wasn’t it just for the purpose of giving him the island fruit ability for now?”
Fan Oka said calmly: "Among the cadres, he was the most seriously injured this time, and he almost lost his life!"
Shiryu sneered: "That loser was so stupid that he made himself a huge living target. He deserves to be beaten to death!"
Blackbeard was so angry that the wounds on his body were in excruciating pain. He couldn't help but cursed: "That old immortal still has such strength at his age! He almost sunk the island of Laozi!"
Dai Peng, the captain of the No. 6 ship, laughed and said: "Muruhuhu, if he hadn't been looking out for those useless brats, he would have done this long ago!"
"That old guy Garp is acting just like Whitebeard back then! Just as stupid!"
Almost all members of the Blackbeard Pirates were injured in this incident, and the pirates under his command suffered heavy casualties, especially the damage to infrastructure which was difficult to estimate.
Blackbeard felt extremely distressed when he saw that the island territory he had worked so hard to occupy was ruined like this.
Captain Lafitte of the No. 5 ship sighed: "As a result, Admiral Teach's new national plan will be completely ruined! Dealing with the World Government is really not a wise move!"
Shiryu wiped his beloved knife, smoked a cigar and sneered: "I have warned you before, it is nonsense for the Pirate Nation to want to be legally recognized by the government! Those guys will only use pirates to make profits. , don’t expect them to regard the pirates as one of their own!”
Blackbeard was even more regretful when he heard this, but he still laughed frankly and said: "Tsk haha, I was naive about this! When I caught that Marine Captain, I suddenly had a whim and planned to make a fortune with the World Government, but it turned out to be a mess. !”
"In short, I am responsible for the loss this time! I will take responsibility and lead you to do something big again, and get back double what you lost this time!"
When everyone heard this, they no longer cared about anything. It was obvious that they still believed in Blackbeard's ability.
Van Oka said at this time: "Admiral Teach, I think when it comes to establishing a pirate country, it is best for us to follow the example of the BIG. Deal!"
Blackbeard's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Tsk haha, this is also a good idea! Anyway, Laozi doesn't plan to pay any heavenly gold, let those Celestial Dragons go to hell!"
Lafitte then said: "Speaking of the pirate country, I heard that the Beasts Pirates of Wanokuni are also planning to hold a founding ceremony recently! Admiral Teach, do we need to pay a visit and discuss cooperation with them? After all, in today's world In the New World, it is not wise to be an enemy of Kaido!"
Blackbeard smiled sinisterly and said: "Tsk haha, I'll leave this matter to you! It would be great if we could establish diplomatic relations with a pirate country!"
Suddenly, he looked around and asked, "Where did that guy Kuzan go? Thanks to him this time, we managed to deal with that old monster Garp. Why is he missing during the meeting now?"
Fan Oka said quietly: "Kuzan said that he is personally responsible for the custody of Garp! He won't even let us interfere if we want to!"
Blackbeard was startled and suddenly fell into deep thought.
