Hearing Kaido ask this question, Ian was montarily stunned, then nodded.
"He really is."
"So he really is captain... Rock's blood?"
After receiving the answer from Ian, Kaido's face was imdiately filled with emotion and complexity. "So what everyone said back then was true after all."
Back on Hachinosu Island, many people had said that Captain Rocks had a child, but many others believed it was just a rumor. Who would have thought that it was actually true?
Of course, he was not happy because the captain's blood had appeared. Although the captain was indeed very strong, so many things had happened back then, and so many years had passed.
Not to ntion the captain's blood, even if the captain himself reappeared, he would only feel a bit of surprise and emotion.
The Rocks Pirates... Could never appear again!
"It's just that I didn't expect that kid to hide himself so deeply."
As he spoke, Kaido's face broke into a cheerful grin. "He even ran off to beco Whitebeard's son. I really wonder what expression Rocks would have if he knew about this? No, I'm already getting impatient to see Whitebeard's expression now, Worororo!"
That unique laugh rang out again.
With a malicious yet anticipatory expression, he looked at Ian once more. "Do you think Whitebeard will go save Rocks' son?"
Ian: "..."
That expression... Even Ian could feel that this guy was taking pleasure in others' misfortune.
Was he really that eager for Whitebeard to go save Teach?
Co to think of it, so much ti had already passed. Although the heat at Sabaody Archipelago had not yet died down, the Marine Headquarters... after capturing Teach, Whitebeard had shown no reaction at all and instead beca quiet.
No one knew whether this ti... a Teach-version of Summit War would still appear.
Just as Ian was thinking.
"Pururururu!"
The Den Den Mushi rang, but this ti it was not Ian's, but Kaido's.
Kaido paid no attention at all to the sudden ringing sound and grinned as he took out the Den Den Mushi. "Hello?"
After saying that, as if he heard sothing, the smile on his face imdiately vanished, and his gaze beca sharp.
But after a short while, he once again revealed a hearty smile. "That old guy, Whitebeard, is here too? Worororo, it's really getting lively!"
At the sa mont, in the sea area by the dock of the Kingdom of Dressrosa.
Moored here, the Beasts Pirates were facing off against a fleet with a flag of a skull with a crescent-shaped mustache.
An oppressive atmosphere instantly enveloped the space between the two fleets.
"Pops, should we fire a shot at them? These guys actually dare to block our way?"
"Gurararara, forget it!"
Facing his sons, who were eager to try, Whitebeard laughed loudly and looked at the Beasts Pirates fleet opposite. "I didn't expect that guy, Kaido, to co as well. Looks like the boss of the Umbrella Corporation is really popular!"
He casually waved his hand again, seeming not to care at all about Kaido coming here.
"Sons, we didn't co here to cause trouble. Ignore them."
As he spoke, his gaze glanced once more at Marco, who had worry in his eyes, and he could not help but sigh inwardly.
Speaking of which, he also did not expect so many things to happen.
Clearly... At the beginning, Teach had only gone to the East Blue to look for a Devil Fruit, yet in such a short period of ti, so many changes had occurred.
Especially the news Marco told him after returning, which filled his heart with complexity and emotion, as well as a trace of confusion.
But as a father, he could not let his children worry, so he did not tell them any of this.
Moreover, this ti he ca over also in order to have a proper talk with the boss of the Umbrella Corporation and... to et Roger's son.
Thinking of this, Whitebeard restrained the complicated emotions in his heart, revealed a kind, fatherly smile, reached out, patted Marco's head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry. I have not gotten so old that I need you to worry about . Teach's matter also have nothing to do with you. Don't bla yourself too much, my child!"
"Yes, Pops."
Hearing Whitebeard's words, a smile also appeared on Marco's face.
However, even though he said this, his heart was still full of worry.
After all, Teach had really been captured by the marines this ti!
Whitebeard also seed to understand that this son of his had not been reassured by what he had just said, but he did not say anything more.
He knew... these past few days, Marco had been blaming himself for not bringing Teach back, which led to Teach being captured.
Whitebeard directly stood up, took his Murakumogiri in hand, and his massive body walked to the bow of the ship.
Looking down at the Beast Pirates fleet opposite, he said calmly, "Hey, you brats from the Beast Pirates, didn't you say your captain ca? Why hasn't he shown up yet? If he doesn't co out soon, I won't be polite!"
As soon as these words fell, the Beasts Pirates' fleet imdiately showed panicked expressions.
After all, that was a fellow Yonko, the monster known as the world's strongest man!
They knew clearly that if that guy really made a move, it would truly be over.
Even Jack's expression was quite ugly, but as one of the three calamities of the Beasts Pirates, and since Whitebeard was not in a cooperative relationship with their Beasts Pirates, he was not as polite as he had been when facing the Umbrella Corporation fleet earlier.
With a big wave of his hand: "Give —"
But before he could finish speaking,
"Worororo!"
That familiar yet reassuring voice rang out again, instantly causing the originally panicked Beasts Pirates officers to reveal excited expressions.
"The Governor is here!"
Sure enough, as soone's shout fell, the sky darkened, as if it had been blocked by sothing. Then, not long after, a massive figure landed on the bow of the Beasts Pirates' fleet and stood in front of everyone.
He carried a huge spiked club on his shoulder, grinned, and looked at Whitebeard opposite.
"I didn't expect to see you here! Newgate!"
"Gurararara."
Facing Kaido's laughter, Whitebeard did not mind at all. He also let out his own distinctive laugh, gripped Murakumogiri, and stared directly at Kaido. "I also didn't expect to see you here, Kaido."
