Chapter 26 Whitebeard

"Oooh, oh, oh, oh, oh..."

Kaido laughed loudly, seemingly unconcerned: "Let him run away. Running away only means that he is not even worthy of being killed by me."

Caesar glanced at Runti and sighed softly: "Children are so simple-minded..."

Runti was furious: "Asshole! What did you say?"

"Don't be angry, do you want to go with me?"

Caesar smiled and invited, "If you help, things might go more smoothly."

"Humph~"

Runti crossed her arms and snorted proudly: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Since her father's life was at stake, Runti decided to listen to Caesar's advice.

Although she didn't want to admit it, this guy did seem to be a little smarter than her.

"It's nothing, just cry when you get there."

"What? I don't want to save face?"

Runti's face darkened, and Peggy Wan looked at Caesar hesitantly.

"Caesar, what do you think of me?"

"Forget about it. It's disgusting to see a grown man crying. It would be bad if he got chopped to death."

"..."

Peggy Wan was a little hurt.

I'm only fourteen years old, so it's okay to cry a little, right?

"You...actually called Xiao Pei disgusting!"

Runti looked at Caesar angrily: "No matter how disgusting Xiao Pei is, he is still my brother!"

Peggy Wan: "Isn't that the point wrong?!"

Caesar tossed the perpetual pointer and said, "Anyway, if there's nothing else, I'll be off."

"Wait, I'll go with you!"

Runti quickly followed. Although she was arguing fiercely, her body was still honest and followed closely behind Caesar.

The leaders of the Beasts Pirates all have their own ships. The two of them were on Runti's ship. Most of the hull was pink, with a devil-horned skull printed on the black sails, and the bow was shaped like a swollen-headed dragon.

The overall structure is not too big, with a length of sixty or seventy meters, which even seems a bit small compared to the New World, which is often two or three hundred meters in size.

"start sailing!"

Throwing the permanent pointer to the navigator, Runti stepped on the bow and pointed to the distance.

Caesar found a deck chair from somewhere and lay on the deck to bask in the sun.

"Hey, Caesar, what did you just say?"

After the ship left the harbor, Runti came to Caesar's side and said in a slightly confused tone, "What do you mean by a simple-minded child?"

"Ok?"

Caesar tilted his head in surprise. Although blindfolded, he could easily imagine the girl's confusion. He couldn't help but smile. "Actually, this matter itself is not complicated. Whitebeard arrested someone and threatened Kaido to let me go. It's that simple."

"If we go head-to-head with the Whitebeard Pirates, even if Kaido wins, the core members of the group will suffer heavy losses. If we're unlucky, Whitebeard might even take their lives. But if we don't fight, it would be embarrassing. Kaido called me here because he wanted me to come forward and resolve this matter."

"If I go and the Whitebeard Pirates don't release the people, then Whitebeard's reputation for morality will be tarnished, and Kaido will definitely spread this matter around the world. After all, even pirates won't be willing to follow an unethical person."

"And I'm not a member of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even if Whitebeard lets me go, I'm going to return to Wano Country."

Runti tilted her head, looking puzzled. "Weren't you caught? Why didn't you run away? Are you an idiot?"

"Running away is meaningless, becoming stronger is the truth."

Caesar smiled and said, "Besides, Kaido treats me well. Even if I can't defeat that guy, it would be nice to stay and become the powerful general of Wano Country." "So you're not leaving?"

Runti's eyes lit up, and she seemed a little happy.

She had a good impression of Caesar, as they were of similar age and he was very tolerant of her.

Runti felt that if Caesar asked her for help, it was not impossible for her to be good friends with him.

"How could that be? Even if I can't defeat him, as long as I can contend with him, I will run away without hesitation."

Caesar smiled proudly: "No one can catch up with my speed now."

"whispering sound…"

Runti curled his lips and planned to report Caesar when he got back, and then let Kaido break his legs.

"Should I really cry then?"

"Cry! When you see your dad, just cry your heart out."

Caesar nodded seriously: "Whitebeard is quite generous. Without any deep hatred, it is unlikely that he would kill the other's father in front of a child. After all, he is the father himself..."

"So if nothing unexpected happens, when Marco sees me, he'll let you go once you start crying."

Runti said "oh" and turned into the kitchen, intending to find some onions to prepare for the occasion.

The waves surged and the ship sailed against the wind. After a while, as Wano Country turned into sesame seeds and disappeared on the sea level, the surrounding wind and waves also subsided.

Sailing on the sea is always boring, but this is rarely reflected in the plot.

Long periods of boredom and cramped cabins can easily drive people crazy, so pirates usually like to vent this feeling of depression by holding banquets.

There are only so many entertainment activities available on the ship. Some ships even prepare some goats to relieve the crew's stress, so that no one will go crazy and do something dangerous.

Caesar noticed Runti's crew. The number of female pirates accounted for nearly 30%, which was a very high proportion for a pirate ship.

However, precisely because of this, the relationship between the crew members is rather chaotic, and from time to time a love action movie is staged in Caesar's observation and perception, including some plots like "Ran Dong".

Runti seemed to be unaware of this, but Caesar could not hide the occasional flushing on her pretty face.

The chaos on the ship did not completely disappear until Caesar drained the blood of a pair of wild mandarin ducks that disturbed his sleep.

Soon, two days passed by.

Guided by the permanent pointer, a green island comes into view in the distance.

The Moby Dick was like a giant blue whale, docked on the coast.

Caesar flew high into the sky, and on the deck of the giant whale, a pair of hawk-like sharp eyes suddenly looked at him.

He was a man about the same height as Kaido, with a strong body and a crescent-shaped white beard.

He wore a black turban on his head, a white coat draped wildly over his shoulders, and his naked body was muscular, giving him an oppressive look that was different from Kaido.

The strongest man in the world, Whitebeard...

Edward Newgate!

"Gulala... Only two little ghosts came?"

Whitebeard glanced at Caesar in the sky: "That bat boy, is that the Caesar you mentioned Marco?"

"Ah! That's right!"

Blue flames rose, and Marco transformed into a phoenix and suddenly flew high into the sky: "Haha, Sassi is not paying attention! Caesar!"

"Long time no see, Marco!"

The two flying guys met in the sky, high-fived each other crisply, and then landed gracefully on the deck of the Moby Dick.

Caesar looked at the huge figure sitting upright and bowed slightly.

"Nice to meet you, Lord Newgate!"
