Chapter 86 Invitation to Cooperation [VIP]

In the past, a meeting between two of the Four Emperors would definitely cause a huge uproar.

But now Morgans' main focus is on "fancy flattery of Yale", and Stussy, the president of "Happy Daily", is temporarily unable to take care of the content of the newspaper because of the capture of the Celestial Dragons. Therefore, only a few major forces know about and pay attention to the meeting between the Red Hair Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates this time.

Shanks is a pirate, but he doesn't want the world to be in complete chaos, and he doesn't want a scene like Yale destroying the world and causing great suffering to happen in the future.

They need to unite, whether they are pirates, navy or revolutionary army, they all need to unite and face the outside world at this moment. No one can stay out of this hellish scene.

But he also knew that, unlike the navy or the revolutionary army, pirates were free, and some profit-seeking guys only saw immediate benefits and didn't care what the future of the world would be like.

Just like not long ago, when the Red Hair Pirates were heading to the East China Sea, some idiots were ready to make a move and set their sights on the islands under the Red Hair Pirates.

If Beckman had not thought it through and ordered the large fleet to patrol more frequently before leaving, some islands might have been looted by those idiots.

Therefore, the first thing the Red Hair Pirates did not do upon returning to the New World was to look for Whitebeard. Instead, they first taught those idiots a lesson before setting sail again and arriving at the Whitebeard Pirates' territory.

The reason why Shanks chose him instead of the other two Four Emperors was, firstly, because Whitebeard had the highest prestige among the pirates, and secondly, because Whitebeard was famous for caring about his family.

The other party may not consider the safety of the world, but must consider his own children and the islands under his control.

Yale's threats are random selections regardless of faction or region.

There is no way Whitebeard would let this continue to happen. Even if Shanks didn't show up, he would take the initiative to attack sooner or later.

The hulls of two great ships, famous in the New World, faced each other.

Red-haired Shanks boarded the deck of the Moby Dick alone.

Before he even arrived, the domineering aura around him had already stunned many weak pirates.

Marco sighed with a headache and asked the people who were still conscious to drag the unconscious guy away.

He could guess what Shanks's visit was for, but in this captain-to-captain situation, it all depended on his father's attitude.

After a confrontation, all the hostility disappeared after the two captains competed in dominance.

Whitebeard sat down again. His mountain-like figure made his laughter sound deep and powerful, but the multiple IV bottles hanging around him showed that his body was no longer as healthy and strong as when he was young.

"Gulala, red-haired boy, you came here uninvited, are you here to act as a lobbyist for the new master?"

Shanks sat down cross-legged not far from Whitebeard and couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

"After leaving the East China Sea, I did hear quite a few rumors about this. I didn't expect that even you believed them, Whitebeard... If I were really Yale's lobbyist, what would you do?"

Whitebeard put down the West Sea wine that Shanks brought, and looked down at Shanks with a smile on his face.

His red hair moved slightly, and the three scars on his left eye were still hideous, but what was more eye-catching was his eyes - they were filled with an almost heavy, sharp light like an eagle.

Whitebeard narrowed his eyes slightly and asked a question that everyone in the pirate group - and even the whole world - was curious about.

"What did you see in the East China Sea?"

“…Heaven and hell, two completely different ‘truths’.”

Shanks spoke, his voice not loud but clearly heard by everyone.

The Whitebeard Pirates who were still conscious looked at each other and could see the confusion in each other's eyes.

What do two completely different 'truths' mean? Could Shanks really be being controlled, even his speech being so unpredictable?

Shanks ignored the commotion and discussions of the people around him and told them everything he had seen and heard at the time.

Until this moment, their judgment of the 'truth' is still based on their own analysis, and is not 100% confirmed.

The Whitebeard Pirates' discussions became louder.

Marco raised his voice to confirm, "Did you really not notice anything?"

There is no need to say much about Shanks' strength, and Beckman's mind is also world-class.

Even these two people didn't notice anything wrong, which only means that Yale's strength is even more terrifying than they imagined.

"At least in our perception, everything is real." Including the smell of blood that drifted to the tip of the nose with the sea breeze, it was extremely real.

Shanks' voice was firm. "I won't keep you in suspense. Regardless of whether Yale is good or evil, he is an outsider who doesn't belong on this planet. We can't allow a powerful person whose true identity we don't know to rule the world. If he decides to destroy us, none of us will be able to escape!"

At some point, the discussions on the deck disappeared, leaving only the sound of waves hitting the hull.

The pirates looked at each other, surprised by Shanks' unusually serious tone, and also shocked by the possibility in his words.

To be honest, the pirates don't care that Yale wants to become the king of the world.

They have never been the rulers of this world. The ones who should really be worried are the government and the navy.

But if the premise or consequence of Yale becoming the king of the world is to destroy everyone on the planet, then it has a lot to do with them.

Whitebeard tapped his fingers twice on the armrest, already understanding what Shanks meant by this.

"So you're here to persuade us to cooperate with you?"

"It's not me," Shanks said calmly, "it's everyone who doesn't want this planet to be occupied by outsiders."

Whitebeard: "That means there are also the navy and even the revolutionary army."

Shanks: "Exactly."

However, the pirates who have been against the navy for many years are unable to accept cooperation with the navy for the time being.

The deck, which had been quiet for a while, became noisy again, and even the 5th Division, Ace, and Sabo who were returning to the ship at this time did not notice it.

"What's going on?" Ace scratched his head and pulled Sabo to Marco's side to ask.

Marco looked at him, then looked at Sabo and frowned.

"Revolutionary Army?" How did this come together?

Ace showed off with a grin.

"This is my sworn brother."

"...Isn't Luffy your sworn brother?"

Marco was also shown the bounty order of Straw Hat Luffy by Ace.

"The other one, his name is Sabo." It's a bit complicated to explain, and now is not the time to explain.

Ace asked again, "Why did the red-haired man come to our ship?"

Sabo was also very curious. He originally wanted to separate from Whitebeard's Fifth Division halfway, but the whereabouts of the Red Hair Pirates he was investigating pointed directly to the Whitebeard Pirates.

Marco raised his chin.

"You'll find out if you keep watching."

"Choose, Whitebeard. Choose a future that allows your family to continue sailing safely, or choose to gamble on the eternal kindness of an outsider."

Shanks stood up, obviously not intending to give Whitebeard too much time to think.

"No one can stay out of the matter when it comes to Yale."

Sabo clenched his hands at his sides.

He already understood the purpose of Red-Haired Shanks coming to find Whitebeard, and guessed why the other party made this choice.

Red-Haired Shanks really saw something in the East China Sea!

When Sabo arrived at the Whitebeard Pirates, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Ryuya, arrived at the Navy Headquarters with some of the Revolutionary Army cadres.

Before this, the World Government and the Revolutionary Army had already determined each other's attitudes through Den Den Mushi.

This personal meeting was only to thoroughly implement the results of the cooperation and discuss the specific matters of fighting against Yale.

The possibility of a Hongmen Banquet is not ruled out, but after the Den Den Mushi communication ended, the navy has further expressed its sincerity.

Some time ago, when Garp, Crane, and Momosa were escorting the Don Quixote family to Impel Down, they also brought out Ivankov and other members of the Revolutionary Army who were hiding on the 5.5th floor, and handed them over to the Revolutionary Army ship waiting near Impel Down.

Then it was the turn of the revolutionary army to express its sincerity.

Long went to the Navy Headquarters without hesitation, and started a meeting with the Commander-in-Chief of the Army Steel Bone, Navy Marshal Sengoku and other senior officials in the Navy's base camp.

Their goals are the same, and there is no conflict of interest in the fight against Yale, such as "who contributes more and who contributes less, and how to distribute the profits after victory."

Everyone knows that when victory is not even guaranteed, talking about plans after victory is just daydreaming.

With this as the premise, the meeting went very smoothly.

Yale, who they regarded as a monster and were on guard against, was now making snacks for watching the movie.

The trial of the Celestial Dragons on the sea has just come to an end.

No one of the Celestial Dragons was given the chance to be "forgiven".

They need to work themselves to death in the garbage dump to pay for their past sins.

This is a fairly fair and satisfactory trial result.

People, especially those who have actually suffered oppression from the Draconians, no longer believe the content in the Joy Daily that denigrates Yale.

They began to "prepare welcome banners and stands, and prepare applause and cheers" to welcome Yale's arrival, just as Yale said during his first live broadcast.

There are so many islands in this world.

The shipboard elves receive various requests for help every day.

After the number increased, Yale lost interest.

He handed over the handling of this matter entirely to the ship-borne elves, who dispatched terminals to various islands.

One island after another disappeared from the sea and, under the influence of the strong magnetic field, quickly moved towards the island group.

The East China Sea will soon be unable to accommodate these patchwork islands.

If the Red Earth Continent is not to be broken up again, the island group will have to expand towards the Calm Belt and the first half of the Grand Route.

Yale has no plans to destroy another piece of red earth continent for the time being.

The time is almost up, the number of people is about to reach the preset threshold, and the game will be over soon.

Thinking of this, Yale was in a good mood. Although he rested every day, he still gave himself a holiday in name.

He closed all his to-do lists, prepared his devil fruit and seastone, adjusted himself to the most comfortable position on the metal chair, and started catching up on anime.

It's been a long time since I paid attention to the story of the Straw Hat Pirates.

The shipboard elves helped him edit it into a movie version without any bloating, and he could watch it leisurely for several hours.

The author has something to say:
