At this, Tsuru also sighed.
Although Sengoku did not finish his sentence, she understood what he ant. At this stage, Marine Headquarters was temporarily incapable of facing an alliance of three major forces.
"Perhaps I'm just thinking about things too pessimistically."
Tsuru gave a bitter smile and shook her head, then looked at Sengoku, who was frowning, paused for a mont, and said: "How does the World Governnt plan to deal with Marshall D. Teach?"
"... There is still no result."
After letting out a heavy breath, Sengoku fell silent for a mont before speaking again. "The last ti I went to report, the Five Elders had not yet made a decision, but I suspect that the final result will only be..."
Before he could finish speaking…
"Purururu!"
The Den Den Mushi on the table rang, imdiately drawing everyone's attention.
Even Sengoku stopped mid-sentence.
Serious expressions appeared on everyone's faces as they looked at the Den Den Mushi on the table.
The Five Elders... was calling?
In the end, Sengoku took a deep breath, put on a solemn expression, and answered the Den Den Mushi. Then, before he could even speak, as if he had heard sothing, Sengoku's pupils contracted, and his gaze beca sharp.
Then, in a serious and low voice, he said: "I understand!"
After that, he directly hung up the Den Den Mushi, still fixing everyone in front of him with a sharp gaze. "Assemble everyone. Ergency eting. The World Governnt has already issued the judgnt on Marshall D. Teach."
...
At the sa ti, the viewpoint returned to Dressrosa's royal palace.
Not long after, Kaido, who had transford into a dragon, landed with a loud bang.
Whitebeard, gripping his weapon, Murakumogiri, also slamd heavily down from the sky.
The ground of the luxurious palace courtyard instantly shattered, forming a massive crater.
Ian did not pay much attention to this, but Kaido was quite displeased.
"Worororo!"
His laughter carried a trace of mockery. "Has your body grown so old that you can't even drink anymore? Edward Newgate."
"Whether I can or not, do you want to try it?"
Hearing Kaido's taunt, Whitebeard did not care in the slightest. He laughed loudly. "Gurararara, it's just that the kids are worried about , their father."
Then he looked at Ian. "My apologies, my sons were rude. But Marco was right. This ti, I did not co here to drink. If, after the matter is settled, I'll personally go to the West Blue to invite you for a drink."
As he spoke, without waiting for Ian to respond, he turned his head to look at Ace in front of him.
After scanning Ace up and down with his eyes, he grinned and said, "You must be the Ace that Marco talked about!"
He extended his large hand.
"Do you want to beco my son, Ace!"
…
"Pops, are we really just leaving like this?"
The New World, in the sea area, not far from the dock of the Kingdom of Dressrosa.
At this mont, the Whitebeard Pirates fleet, which had only just arrived at Dressrosa not long ago, was slowly departing from the dock of the Kingdom of Dressrosa.
Marco, sitting cross-legged at the bow of the ship, looked at Whitebeard. After hesitating for a mont, he still asked: "Didn't you say you wanted to et Ace once? And also about Teach's matter..."
But before he could finish speaking…
"Gurararara!"
Whitebeard let out a hearty laugh, then maintained his smile and said, "Hadn't I already t him? That is already enough."
Seeing that Marco still seed to want to say sothing, before he could speak, Whitebeard slightly raised his head again and continued smiling as he said: "As for Teach... Don't worry. I will definitely rescue our Teach. I'm not so old that I need others to protect my son."
Marco: "..."
Hearing Whitebeard's words, Marco raised his head and looked at him, seeming to want to say sothing. But when he saw the smile at the corner of Whitebeard's mouth, it was as if he understood Whitebeard's aning.
The corners of Marco's mouth could not help but curl up. "Pops, you're right. Teach is our family mber. Even without anyone else, we, the Whitebeard Pirates, will definitely rescue Teach!"
At this mont, he also understood the purpose of Whitebeard's visit here. It really was simply to et the son of the King of the Pirates, Ace, once.
Of course, he also understood why Whitebeard chose to et Ace at this ti. Pops... Perhaps had already prepared himself to sacrifice his own life if necessary to rescue Teach.
As for why? There was no why!
Because he was their father!
Although Marco, having figured it out, still had so worry in his eyes when he looked at the brothers gathered by Whitebeard's feet as well, happily drinking and confidently talking about how they would definitely rescue Teach and make the Marine Headquarters pay the price, Marco still did not say anything.
He knew clearly... he could no longer stop his Pops.
Moreover, Teach was also their family mber. How could they truly abandon their family mber?
And at this ti…
"Gurararara!"
Whitebeard let out another hearty laugh, then directly stood up, walked to the bow of the ship, stood beside Marco, and looked out at the sea ahead. His eyes carried anticipation and confusion, but after a short while, his face changed back into a smile.
"The son of Rocks, the son of Roger, and the grandson of that old guy, Garp, who would have thought they would beco brothers."
A surging aura seed to flow through his entire body, instantly drawing the attention of everyone on the ship, who all turned to look at their father.
They seed unable to understand why Whitebeard would release his Conqueror's Haki at this mont. After all, there were no enemies right now.
But this Conqueror's Haki did not harm anyone, as if it naturally erged along with Whitebeard's exhilarated mood.
Then Whitebeard's unique laughter, resounding across the entire sea, appeared once more.
"Gurararara, this era... It is really sothing to look forward to!"
