Chapter 448 The Person Who Is Placed with Hope! (Two in One)

The news of the arrest of Whitebeard, known as the "strongest man in the world", shocked the whole world.

After hearing the news, the pirates in the four seas and the first half of the Grand Line were shocked and subconsciously restrained their actions.

After all, even Whitebeard was caught by the so-called "New Navy", and the Navy Headquarters had more time and energy to focus on these "little minions".

Although most of the pirates in the world began to restrain their actions after hearing the news of Whitebeard's arrest, the big pirates active in the New World did not feel sad for Whitebeard for a moment after learning the news.

After losing Whitebeard, the Whitebeard Pirates have come to the brink of collapse. The rich and peaceful islands controlled by the Whitebeard Pirates have become the targets of many pirates.

Pirates are creatures that will choose to take risks no matter what kind of risks they face when the actual benefits are large enough.

Some large fleets began to send their men to try to plunder the islands controlled by the Whitebeard Pirates, testing the remaining strength of the Whitebeard Pirates.

After leaving the Wan Guo Sea, the Moby Dick quickly rushed to Wano Country relying on Kozuki Oden's life card. Without Whitebeard's leadership, they urgently needed a "talker" to lead them forward.

Kozuki Oden was the "younger brother" recognized by Whitebeard, and was once the captain of the second team of the Whitebeard Pirates. He was the new "leader" recognized by the crew to continue to unite their group.

On the way to Wano Country, Marco, Vista and other captains began to pass information to their subordinates scattered around the New World, asking for a gathering.

The gathering place was in Whitebeard's hometown - Gosphynx Island.

During this period, Marco and other captains would receive information about the attack on the territory from time to time, but now the Whitebeard Pirates had no intention of caring about these things except complaining about it.

For them, the most urgent task is to gather forces and rescue Whitebeard.

It is difficult for power to be in a vacuum.

When one person in power disappears, another person in power will soon take over.

Some islands in the New World that were no longer protected by the Whitebeard Pirates soon fell into chaos. Pirates also fought for resources and territory.

But this kind of thing has nothing to do with Whitebeard.

The sun shines through the small window above the prison and pours into the room.

This is a small prison built entirely of seastone. Whitebeard's hands are handcuffed to the wall and he wakes up slowly.

Looking around the surrounding environment, Whitebeard showed a self-deprecating smile on his face, and his eyes fell on the red-haired young man sitting on the ground in front of him:

"Why didn't you kill me directly?"

Whitebeard opened his mouth, his voice was a little hoarse, and when he asked the red-haired young man in front of him, Whitebeard also quickly lowered his head to scan the wounds on his body and found that several fatal wounds on his body had completely healed.

At this time, except for being a little weak due to excessive blood loss and hunger, he had already come back from the gates of hell.

"You still have some value."

"And it's too cruel to let a person like you die in obscurity."

Seeing Whitebeard wake up, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi, who was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes and showed a gentle smile.

The sunlight shone on Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's face through the skylight. At this time, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's temperament was quite calm and gentle.

This was very different from the fierce Tsugikoku Yoshiichi in Whitebeard's impression.

"Really?"

When Whitebeard heard what Tsukuni Yoshiichi said, he looked around the cell where he was imprisoned and couldn't help but sigh:

"A prison made entirely of seastone"

"Isn't the processing technology of seastone only mastered by the Navy Headquarters and the World Government?"

"Have you, the new navy, also obtained this technology?"

Already a prisoner, as smart as Whitebeard is, he has some predictions about his future. It's nothing more than a public execution.

At this point, Whitebeard has nothing to worry about. When he talks to Tsukuni Yoshiichi, he doesn't have the hysteria of a death row prisoner. Instead, he is unusually calm. He even has the leisure to be curious about these things.

"You are on the Dawn warship of our new navy."

"This ship was originally designed and built by Tom, the master craftsman of the Seven Water City, when I became the admiral."

"One of the facilities on the ship was added by the Navy Headquarters."

"Of course there is also the Seastone Prison."

Tsugukuni Yoshiichi and Whitebeard chatted like old friends, the atmosphere was calm and light.

"Really?"

"Then the Navy Headquarters really lost a lot."

"Not only did they kick someone like you out of the Navy, but they also lost a warship like this."

"Dawn. Interesting name."

Whitebeard chuckled and praised. Feeling the slightly shaking ground, he knew that Tsukuni Yoshiichi had not lied to him.

"When are you going to kill me?"

When Whitebeard asked about his death date, there was a slight fluctuation in his eyes.

Even if it was him, in the face of life and death, he would inevitably be a little concerned.

"It's not up to me to decide."

"I have contacted the Navy Headquarters and plan to exchange you for a bounty."

"Well, your bounty is quite high, which is very helpful for our new navy."

Tsukuni Yoshiichi answered half jokingly. When Whitebeard heard that Tsukuni Yoshiichi was going to send him to the Navy Headquarters, his pupils shrank slightly, and he instantly saw through Tsukuni Yoshiichi's purpose.

Even without Whitebeard, the Whitebeard Pirates are still a behemoth.

Whitebeard knows his sons' personalities and temperaments very well. If those guys get to know this news, they may plan to rob the prison.

If the Navy Headquarters really takes him over, they will also be cautious.

By then, there will be another big war. Tsugikoku Yoshiichi can not only use the headquarters to clean up the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates, but also use the Whitebeard Pirates to attract the energy of the Navy Headquarters and the World Government, so as to free up his hands to do something.

For example, to take over the islands controlled by the Whitebeard Pirates.

Kill two birds with one stone.

"You guy"

After seeing through Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's purpose, Whitebeard was a little speechless for a while.

He suddenly didn't know what to say. Tsugikoku Yoshiichi obviously has unparalleled strength, but he still engages in this kind of "conspiracy".

Whitebeard has met too many strong people in his life, but he has met relatively few people like Tsugikoku Yoshiichi.

Behind this talent, there are often ambitions that others can hardly imagine.

Whitebeard frowned. Although he didn't care about his own life and death, he was still very concerned about the safety of his sons.

He knew that once Jiguo Yuanyi's plan went smoothly, his sons would probably suffer a catastrophe.

Although he was secretly worried about his sons, Whitebeard, who was imprisoned, could do nothing.

Such a feeling of powerlessness made Whitebeard feel dazed.

"Whitebeard, cherish your last time."

"If you want to eat something, just tell the guard. As long as it's not an excessive request, I can satisfy you."

As he said, Jiguo Yuanyi held the long knife in his hand and gently leaned on the ground, slowly stood up, turned around and left the cell.

Whitebeard did not answer. He was trying to think of a way to break the deadlock. He would never allow his sons to lose their lives because of him.

There are powerful enemies in the Navy Headquarters that make him have to be on high alert!

After leaving the prison, Tsugakuin Yoshiichi took out his personal Den Den Mushi and called Sengoku. When Tsugakuin Yoshiichi revealed that he wanted to hand over Whitebeard to the Navy Headquarters in exchange for a bounty, Sengoku was stunned.

He did not expect that the New Navy was actually planning to hand over Whitebeard. If the New Navy could execute Whitebeard themselves, the popularity of the New Navy would be able to rise to a higher level, and it would be easy to suppress the "useless" Navy Headquarters.

Surprise, huge surprise surged in his heart.

However, Sengoku was Sengoku after all. He was once called a "wise general" and he was not the kind of person who easily got carried away. He quickly realized the danger behind this matter.

He did not answer Tsugakuin Yoshiichi immediately, but told Tsugakuin Yoshiichi that he needed to have a meeting to discuss it before hanging up the phone.

Hearing a busy tone coming from the receiver, Tsugakuin Yoshiichi was not surprised, and a faint smile hung on his face.

Will the Sengoku refuse to take over Whitebeard from the new navy? Most likely not.

If it were Yuichi Tsugakushi who was in Sengoku's shoes, he would definitely accept it.

Compared with the huge influence brought by the execution of Whitebeard, the risk of war is nothing. Whitebeard is a legendary pirate. After Roger's death, the most influential pirate is probably Whitebeard.

Although their navy has never given Whitebeard the title of "Pirate King", the influence of Whitebeard in this era is no less than that of Roger.

The benefits of the navy being able to execute such a person are self-evident.

Without convening any meeting to invite people to discuss together, Sengoku decisively called Yuichi Tsugakushi back after a brief thought of more than ten minutes and agreed to Yuichi Tsugakushi.

"In this case, I will personally send Whitebeard to the Navy Headquarters, Marshal Sengoku."

Yuichi Tsugakushi smiled and said this to Sengoku, and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Sengoku sat quietly in a chair for a long time before calling Brannew and notifying a group of senior naval officials to begin preparations for taking over Whitebeard.

Tsugakuin Yoshiichi brought Whitebeard to the Navy Headquarters. If this matter is not handled carefully, the consequences will be disastrous.

The newspaper under Morgans quickly reported this matter to the people of the world, but the newspaper deliberately blurred the concept between the Navy Headquarters and the New Navy in the report.

The report gave people the feeling that the New Navy and the Navy Headquarters still maintained a close relationship, and there seemed to be no difference between the two.

Such a report successfully misled the vast majority of ordinary people who did not know the truth.

Although the people in the Navy Headquarters also saw the report, they did not stand up to deny the "special relationship" described in the newspaper, or publicly clarify it.

Sengoku and other senior naval officials did not make any so-called statements, and some naval officers did not have the so-called "publicity channels".

Such a thing, which seemed to be a "small matter" at best to outsiders, quickly attracted the attention of the World Government CP agents, and reported the matter to the Five Elders through their own internal channels.

In response, the Five Elders were very alert and had some grudges against Sengoku and other naval leaders.

This alliance with Tsugakuin Yoshiichi quietly broke the close trust between the Navy and the World Government.

Of course, the high-ranking officers of the Navy were preparing to deal with what would happen after receiving Whitebeard, and they didn't notice this at all!

The Dawn warship, led by Tsugakuin Yoshiichi, slowly left the Wan Guo and headed for Marinford, which was located in the first half of the Grand Line.

As Tsugakuin Yoshiichi escorted Whitebeard away, the Wan Guo also began martial law.

After Whitebeard was captured, the New World was not peaceful.

The new navy of the Wan Guo also needed to guard against possible retaliation and attacks from the Whitebeard Pirates. After all, no one could predict what the pirates would do after getting the news.

While Tsugakuin Yoshiichi led his team to leave the Wan Guo, Mihawk and Kuma, who were far away in the West Sea, also quickly rushed to Marinford, where they planned to meet up with Tsugakuin Yoshiichi.

The people of the new navy have already regarded the headquarters of the navy as their own backyard. When they made relevant arrangements, they did not take the headquarters of the navy into consideration at all.

New world, Wano Country.

The gentle sea breeze blows gently. On a beach in Kuri, Kozuki Oden is sitting cross-legged on a reef on the shore, bathing in the warm sunshine and looking out at the sea.

Since returning to Wano Country, Kozuki Oden often thinks of the days when he followed the two heroes, Whitebeard and Roger, on the sea.

Whenever he misses his past sailing career, he will come to this beach and recall the scene when he first met the Whitebeard Pirates and others.

The peaceful and boring life in Wano Country makes Kozuki Oden, who was already restless, become restless.

"Wow——"

A big wave hit, and a familiar white shadow of Oden suddenly appeared on the sea level in the distance.

"Hmm?!"

Seeing the white ship in the distance, Kozuki Oden murmured softly, straightened his back, rubbed his eyes, and showed a little disbelief on his face.

"Moby Dick" Kozuki Oden confirmed it again and again, and finally murmured softly, his face full of joy.

"Hey--"

Excited Oden quickly rushed to the beach, waving his hands, and issued a loud call to the fast-approaching Moby Dick.

On the Moby Dick in the distance, the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates gathered on the deck. Looking at the figure waving his hands at him on the distant coast, they couldn't help but feel sad, and their faces showed sadness.

As the Moby Dick approached, Kozuki Oden also saw a crew member on the deck in the distance. He couldn't see the familiar tall figure from the crowd. Kozuki Oden seemed to have sensed something, and the smile on his face became a little stiff, and his waving arms slowly dropped.

Something happened!

Something happened to Whitebeard!

Obviously, Oden didn't know what was happening in the outside world in Wano Country, but when he saw the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates, Oden suddenly felt something.
