Chapter 565 - The Encounter With the Pirates
Sabaody Archipelago.
Recently, there are more and more pirates here.
Since the execution list from the marine was announced, countless pirates flocked over. Some wanted to watch the war that was about to break out, and some pirates wanted to take this opportunity to enter the second half of the Grand Line to become the new Yonko(Four Emperors).
After all…
Shanks was going to be executed soon.
Moreover, the battle between Whitebeard Pirates and the marine had already started. If Whitebeard lost, Yonko(Four Emperors)’s position would immediately be empty. This was a big temptation for some ambitious pirates.
Some people even saw the Golden Lion Shiki of the last era in this area, the great pirate who once attacked Marineford with his own strength!
Indeed…
Golden Lion Shiki rushed here.
This legendary pirate rushed here, in addition to wanting to intervene in this war, he also wanted to recruit Rayleigh who appeared in Sabaody Archipelago.
Ding ding ding…
The sound of two sharp swords stepping on the slate was a bit clear.
Many years ago, when Shiki broke out from Impel Down prison, he cut off his feet in order to get rid of the shackles. Later, Shiki used these two swords to replace his legs…
There was no doubt…
This was a ruthless man.
Shiki walked into a coating factory with the two swords. He walked step by step to a busy coating worker. He slowly opened his mouth and laughed, “We haven’t seen each other for twenty years, right? Rayleigh!”
“Let’s catch up later. I’m still working…”
Rayleigh reached out and covered the hull with bubble coating. After he was done, he slowly clapped his hands and turned to look at Shiki. He could not help but smile, “It looks like we are getting old…”
Twenty years have passed…
After the Battle of Edd War, they had never seen each other again. Now, they, who used to be famous in Grand Line, were all old…
Even Shiki gradually had wrinkles. The once majestic Pirate Admiral now appeared here alone.
Without a trace of politeness…
Shiki was once the most powerful among the three legendary pirates. Unfortunately, Shiki’s armada was completely destroyed by a sudden storm in the Battle of Edd War.
Now all of this was over.
Now there were only two old people left in this factory.
“Humph…”
Shiki shook his head, not acknowledging Rayleigh’s words at all. His body gradually floated up and slowly spread out his arms. He grinned and said, “What is age? As long as I am still alive, this world will be mine sooner or later!”
Shiki suddenly clenched his fist and said with a fanatical face, “Roger has been dead for twenty years! Come out again and follow me, Rayleigh! I heard about what happened in Sabaody. You are obviously not old yet!”
Shiki then laughed arrogantly, “A war that can change the world. As long as we join hands, we can take back everything we had before!”
Shiki originally only wanted to intervene in this unprecedented war. However, after hearing the news of Rayleigh, Shiki specially came to Sabaody Archipelago. If he wanted to intervene in this war, any additional force was very important!
“I refuse.”
Rayleigh shook his head. He held his glasses and looked at the old Shiki. He then said in a low voice, “I didn’t expect that this war would also attract you.”
“Hahahaha…”
Shiki floated in the air and looked down at Rayleigh with a face full of laughter, “Such a grand scene hasn’t been seen in twenty years, right?
This time, I want to take a good look and see what that Whitebeard guy will do to Marineford! Hmph, If I am not satisfied…”
“Gurararara… It shouldn’t disappoint you!”
At this time, a burst of laughter interrupted Shiki.
“Whitebeard” Edward Newgate walked in with his naginata. He raised his head to look at Shiki in the air and grinned, “Gurararara… No matter where you are, you want to make a big noise. Your temper has not changed… Shiki…”
“Newgate…”
Shiki’s eyes flashed and he stared at Whitebeard. The smile on his face grew even wider, “I haven’t seen you for so many years. Then let me see how much strength you have left now!”
Just as Shiki suddenly opened his palm and was about to make a move here, Rayleigh interrupted him loudly, “Shiki, this is not a place for you to behave atrociously!”
“Gurararara… That’s right…”
Edward Newgate could not help but laugh. He slowly turned to look at Rayleigh and ask, “Rayleigh, can you coat?”
“…”
Rayleigh was silent for a second.
In the next moment, Rayleigh nodded slowly and pushed up his glasses. He smiled and said, “But my price is not low…”
“Just name your price!”
Edward Newgate spread out his palm without care. His smile became a little subtle, “The most precious treasure in this world is ONEPIECE. You have seen it a long time ago… Gurararara… you can name any price you like!”
“I want your ship.”
Rayleigh’s words immediately made Whitebeard look serious.
However, Rayleigh did not say anything. He just explained softly, “I just want to ride your ship to enter Marineford. Don’t think too much about it, Newgate…”
“I never thought of that…”
Edward Newgate grinned and slowly shook his head, “Is it for Crocus? Or for that little girl Shakky?”
Whitebeard also looked at the marine’s execution list.
It was because he saw Shakky’s name that “Whitebeard” Edward Newgate came to ask Rayleigh if he wanted to go with him. He could take a ride…
He didn’t expect Rayleigh to take the initiative to suggest…
Rayleigh nodded solemnly and bent over to take his coating device. He then said in a low voice, “That’s great!”
“Hey! Don’t ignore me!”
Shiki’s expression was a little ugly.
Shiki looked at the two people on the ground. His palm suddenly flipped, wanting to launch a sweeping gale, but a gravitational force suddenly sucked him down from the sky!
He doesn’t know when…
A young man stood beside Whitebeard and stretched out his palm toward Shiki. His eyes also had a different strange appearance!
It was Uchiha Sasuke!
“Bansho Ten’in(Universal Pull)!”
Sasuke controlled gravity to attract Shiki, and his other hand suddenly pulled out the sword on his body!
In the next moment, a blade light flashed!
This blade was extremely ruthless, and Sasuke seemed to want to directly cut Shiki’s body into two as if the legendary pirate would fall here in the next second!
However…
Whitebeard waved his Naginata to stop that sword light!
Clang!
The sound of the two Supreme Grade Blades clashing was abnormally clear!
Whitebeard blocked Sasuke’s attack and slowly shook his head at him, “Sasuke, don’t worry. This guy is not our enemy now…”
“I got it.”
Sasuke slowly withdrew his sword. The appearance of Sasuke made Shiki and Rayleigh frown at the same time.
However, Whitebeard did not care about the fierceness of Sasuke’s attack. He slowly put away his Naginata and continued with a smile, “Alright, wait for me for a moment. When I catch up with my old friends, I will go and find you…”
“I understand.”
Sasuke nodded slowly.
Sasuke did not hesitate. He just left the coating factory on his own. Originally, he was aware of Shiki’s power…
According to Marco…
Before the start of the war, they must not let their father get hurt.
Just as Sasuke left the coating factory and returned to Moby Dick, a group of people winked at Sasuke, “Hey, Sasuke, shall we destroy Sabaody’s marine base? I remember that the Vice Admiral stationed here helped in catching Ace…”
“No.”
The corner of Sasuke’s mouth twitched. He couldn’t help but shake his head, “Vista, Jozu, before we save Ace, don’t cause any more trouble!”
It was really…
This made Sasuke not know what to say.
In the past, whenever Sasuke wanted to destroy a marine base, a group of pirates would try to persuade him to give up this idea.
As a result, now…
The man stationed in Sabaody Archipelago was Uehara Naraku…
This group of Whitebeard Pirates had become bolder! Who the more you can’t provoke, the more you want to provoke?
