"In that case, we won't stand on ceremony. Ace, come and test your fire."

As Marco spoke, he drank the fire-resistant potion in his hand, and immediately felt a surge of ice flow throughout his body.

Besides its flames, his Phoenix Fruit can also heal, so even if he doesn't defend himself and gets injured by Ace's flames, he can recover quickly.

Ace followed suit; as a user of the Flame-Flame Fruit, he could easily pierce through five ships with a single blow.

He had never seen anyone stronger than him when it came to fire alone.

However, Ace's fiery fist disappeared without a trace when it landed on Marco, as if it had vanished into thin air.

Although he had expected it, Marco still looked shocked and stared at Ace in disbelief.

You have to understand, his opponent is far stronger than him in terms of fire alone.

It can also be immune so easily.

So it seems this bottle of fire-resistant potion...

It doesn't mean it can be immune to certain levels of fire attacks; it should mean it can be immune to all fire-type damage.

Marco and Ace exchanged a glance, their understanding unspoken.

Since the other party is a pharmacist, there must be other potions besides this fire-resistant potion.

If we could control it, wouldn't the Moby Dick be invincible?!

Seeing the intense gazes in their eyes, Bai An understood what he was thinking. The white-bearded man beside him also noticed Marco's movements and frowned slightly.

"The method of making this medicine must be kept secret, so you two shouldn't be delusional."

"Sorry sorry."

Hearing their father's scolding, Marco and Ace immediately snapped out of their daze and gave Bai An apologetic look. This was something they couldn't just tell others.

"It's alright, I don't mind. Didn't I say I run a trading shop? I sell everything, so naturally I'll sell this potion recipe too."

Bai An shook his head, not minding it at all.

Although his potion-making method is something others can't learn, he can sell the formula that Yonglin gave him.

Previously, Yonglin had managed to figure out a similar potion using the materials he provided.

However, Bai An couldn't understand the recipe Yonglin gave her.

A whole bunch of technical jargon left even him completely bewildered.

Marco and Estun's eyes lit up when they heard that Bai An was willing to sell the potion formula.

With a responsible attitude, Bai An offered an explanation.

"The method of making this potion is very complicated, and the only ones I have are the ingredients. I suggest you don't buy it."

Hearing Bai An's reminder, Marco and Ace calmed down, thought about it carefully for a while, and didn't ask any more questions.

After Marco and Ace left, Whitebeard looked at Bai An.

"Shopkeeper, is there anything special about Ace?"

Whitebeard had just noticed that Bai An and Kaguya had been sizing up Ace.

However, Bai An posed a question that left Whitebeard completely baffled.

"Whitebeard, do you want to know about your future?"

Bai An looked at the white-bearded man and spoke slowly and earnestly.

"my future?"

Whitebeard paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Gulala, shopkeeper, you're joking. Who can predict the future?"

"No, I've said before that I sell everything, including things in the future."

Bai An stretched out his right index finger and shook it.

"The future? Hahaha, I think life is like sailing, enjoying the unknown. If we knew the future, what fun would life have? Besides, I'm already very satisfied with these kids I have now."

After speaking heartily, the white-bearded man took a big gulp of wine.

For him, becoming the Pirate King and acquiring treasure are far less important than his children; his current life is enough.

What he is most proud of is his large family.

Bai An didn't reply immediately, but instead took a swig of wine.

"Whitebeard, if in the future you are killed by your own child, would you still want this unknown?"

Bai An suddenly asked a question. His expression was calm, but his words struck Bai An like a bolt from the blue.

"Shopkeeper, you're not kidding, are you?"

Whitebeard's face froze, turning ugly. After a moment's hesitation, he said in a deep voice.

If someone else had said that, he might have scoffed.

Although the pirate crew consisted of his adopted sons and daughters.

But they all respected him greatly and would never lay a hand on him.

But the fact that these words came from Bai An made Whitebeard feel that their credibility increased significantly.

Moreover, the other party had no reason to lie to him.

Whitebeard took a deep breath, trying to control his emotions.

He'd rather believe it's true than not.

He didn't want his son to suddenly turn against him or even his other brothers. He would rather get rid of the traitor beforehand than let that happen.

"Shopkeeper, is this about Ace?"

Recalling how the two had been staring at Ace, Whitebeard vaguely guessed what was going on.

However, he did not believe that Ace was the real culprit.

After all, he knew Ace's personality very well. He was easygoing and frank, and would never do such a thing.

"It's related to Ace, but he's not the culprit."

Bai An shook his head, rejecting Whitebeard's guess.

Upon hearing Bai An's affirmative answer, the white-bearded man breathed a sigh of relief.

He speculated that the culprit was probably among the new recruits.

"Dog, stop beating around the bush and just tell me directly."

Seeing the two of them like riddles, Kaguya finally couldn't help but interrupt, and pointed to a middle-aged man with a rough appearance and a scruffy beard not far away.

"Let me tell you, it was that Blackbeard over there. He not only killed your Fourth Division Commander, but also captured Ace and sold him to the Marines. In the end, you, Whitebeard, died in the Marineford War while trying to save Ace."

Whitebeard looked in the direction Kaguya was pointing and saw Blackbeard standing in the corner, chatting with his crew.

Blackbeard noticed Whitebeard's gaze, looked up and turned to look at him with a憨厚 (honest and simple) smile.

"You mean Teach, the Blackbeard you're talking about? You must have mistaken me for someone else. Teach has been with me for decades, and he's not even the strongest."

Whitebeard was still somewhat suspicious, after all, Teach was one of the earliest crew members to follow him.

He was unassuming and easygoing, and had a good reputation among the crew of the Moby Dick; he was considered a long-time member.

Moreover, its strength is neither weak nor strong, placing it at a mid-level.

According to common sense.

Teach shouldn't have the ability to kill Thatch one-on-one, let alone capture Ace alive.

"It's easy to find out if it's true or not. I'll just give him a taste of it. If he wants to live, he'll expose his secret of hiding his strength."

Kaguya said with a smile, a hint of danger in her eyes.

The moment Kaguya finished speaking, Blackbeard suddenly trembled, his extraordinary intuition frantically warning of danger.

He tried to run, but was horrified to find himself unable to move.

His whole body stiffened, his blood seemed to have stopped flowing, and the only thought left was to escape.

They fled back to their cabins, back to their rooms, and in short, left the deck.

However, he couldn't move.

However, the eerie feeling quickly dissipated after Bai An gave Kaguya a flick on the forehead.

Blackbeard looked as if he had just escaped death, with large beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

"Teach, what's wrong with you? You didn't get drunk so quickly, did you?"

Those around him looked at Blackbeard, whose face appeared weak, and couldn't help but worry. Blackbeard forced out an ugly smile and waved his hand.

"Oops, sorry, sorry, I think I ate something wrong, my stomach hurts."

Blackbeard exaggeratedly rubbed his belly to divert everyone's attention, while secretly glancing in his father's direction out of the corner of his eye.

Blackbeard's acting was terrible, but the people here didn't suspect much.

They simply categorized Blackbeard as someone who was drunk and laughed a few times.

At the same time, Kaguya covered her head and glared at Bai An with dissatisfaction.

"You bastard! Why are you hitting me? If you break it, I'll come after you!"

"You have the nerve to ask? You tried to hit someone's son in front of his father. Tell me, shouldn't you have done it?"

Bai An glanced at her and said irritably.

"I didn't mean it! I was just testing you, I wouldn't really kill you."

Kaguya pouted, looking quite aggrieved. Whitebeard, standing beside her, also looked embarrassed, but he still defended Kaguya a few times and said he didn't mind, which made Kaguya even more smug.

However, Bai An ignored her and instead took out a dragon fruit from the fruit on the table, recalling the appearance of the Dark Fruit in his mind.

A moment later, he placed the dragon fruit on the table.

Seeing the dragon fruit turn a deep purple, Kaguya immediately understood what Bai An wanted to do.
