As soon as Li Yue finished speaking in the chat group, the air in front of Shanks in the world of One Piece suddenly cracked open.

The pirates who were eating and drinking on the ship all stopped instantly and looked at the cracked portal.

The portal opened rapidly, and Li Yue emerged from it, shouting loudly under the watchful eyes of the pirates.

"Who's going to give me any face?!"

"Who?"

The pirates on the ship were stunned for a moment. What was this person shouting?

He seems to be looking for someone, and the person he's looking for is named "Give Me Face"? What a strange name! Wait, this name seems...

The pirates all tilted their heads to look at Shanks, who was sitting in the very center of the crowd.

Shanks awkwardly raised his right hand.

"Well, I'm just doing you a favor."

"Ha ha ha ha!!"

The pirates suddenly laughed.

"Shanks, so it really was here to see you."

"Shanks, when did you start saying your name like that in public? It's hilarious."

"Shanks, who taught you to have such a name?"

"I'd like to know too. It seems that this is the name I'm called outside."

Shanks wasn't angry at all when his companions teased him. Instead, he just shrugged helplessly. He found it strange when he first entered the group chat and saw the message "Give me some face" at the beginning of the conversation. But since he did say something like that, he didn't think there was much of a problem. However, he hadn't revealed his real name, so it felt a little odd to be called by his screen name.

Shanks isn't a modern person, so he doesn't understand this kind of awkward situation. If he were a modern person, he would be very familiar with this feeling, because it's the same feeling as ordering takeout or a package and then having the delivery person shout in public in a crowd, "Who is the nimble dog from the mountains?"

"You're just doing me a favor."

Through the pirates' conversation, Li Yue also identified Shanks in the crowd.

"Then you must be the group owner, the silly and funny guy."

Shanks sized up Li Yue, who looked very young and was quite thin. Compared to the people of their world, Li Yue's body looked incredibly small.

"That's right, you just invited me over to hang out, so I came over."

"Shanks, who is this young man?"

Shanks' first mate, Ben Beckman, moved closer to Shanks and watched as Li Yue asked Shanks a question.

"Um... This is a friend I met elsewhere. We were having a party, and we invited him over, so he came."

"Yes, yes, everyone, don't be so polite with me. You're Shanks' friends, so you're my friends too!"

Li Yue waved to the people around him, and then sat down opposite Shanks under the bewildered gazes of the pirates.

"Come on, keep eating and drinking!"

"Hahaha! Shanks, this guy is hilarious!"

"Yes, yes, yes, this guy is so interesting!"

"Hey group admin, I still don't know your name."

Shanks found Li Yue's overly familiar demeanor amusing.

"My name is Shanks, I'm a pirate, and these are all my crewmates."

“My name is Li Yue. According to the rules of your world, I am currently the king of a country and also a god.”

"god?"

Shanks was somewhat surprised. In the world of One Piece, God is not a title that just anyone can use.

"Yes, it's just a title. In my land, there are seven countries, and the kings of the seven countries are also called the Seven Gods. It's just a title for the strong. Don't worry about it. That's about it."

As Li Yue spoke, she raised her hand, a golden light flashing in her eyes. She activated the power of the rock element, and a huge celestial star appeared out of thin air in the sky, falling into the sea. Under the watchful eyes of everyone on the pirate ship, it landed on the sea surface.

boom--

The seawater was blasted open, followed by a massive tsunami rushing towards the pirate ship from afar.

"A tsunami is coming!"

The pirates shouted as they watched the massive tsunami rushing towards them.

As the tsunami approached, Shanks drew his sword on the spot, sat down, and slashed at the tsunami. A huge slash flew from the tip of the sword, instantly splitting the tsunami in two.

"That's amazing! You can actually summon meteorites?"

"No, it's not about summoning a meteorite, but about creating one."

Li Yue stretched out her right hand, and rock elements gathered in her palm, forming a small celestial star.

"Like this, except the one I just created is a little bigger. I created it and then let it fall from the sky to attack the enemy."

"I see, that's a very powerful move."

Shanks, having cleaved the tsunami in two with a single strike, slowly sheathed his sword, nodding as he did so, before raising the wine glass beside him.

"My lords, let's welcome our powerful new friend, Li Yue! Let's continue the banquet!"

"Oh!!!"

The pirates cheered, and then continued their eating, drinking, and merrymaking.

"What a great atmosphere! The group around me is just not like that. Apart from one drunkard, everyone else is very serious. There's no atmosphere like this with them."

"Haha, after all, you said you're the king, and the people around the king should all be quite serious."

Shanks grinned.

"And pirates are the freest people in the world, so they are also the happiest people."

"The freest pirate, how enviable."

They're said to be the freest people, but in reality, the Red-Haired Pirates could also be considered the least free people in the One Piece world. As a balancer, Shanks is always dedicated to maintaining balance at sea, busy using his reputation to solve problems. Where does this kind of guy get his freedom?

"So where are you going next?"

Li Yue asked curiously.

Shanks glanced at the distant sea.

"We're going to meet the strongest man on this vast ocean."

144. Admiral Aokiji actually assassinated a Celestial Dragon!

Through his conversation with Shanks, Li Yue also learned about the timeline of the One Piece world.

Blackbeard has defected, and Ace, the second division commander under Whitebeard, has gone to hunt him down. They are currently in the midst of the chase.

After Shanks learned of this, he was about to go to the Whitebeard Pirates.

Shanks knew Blackbeard's true strength; the opponent was not as weak as he appeared, but rather extremely strong. The three scars on Blackbeard's face were inflicted by Blackbeard, and Shanks was injured when he was completely unprepared.

Shanks felt that Ace was no match for Blackbeard given his current level of skill, so he went to Whitebeard to bring Ace back to avoid unnecessary casualties, since Ace was Captain Roger's only bloodline.

"So, you want to get Whitebeard to recall Ace and stop the fight between Ace and Blackbeard, is that right?"

Li Yue and Shanks stood side by side at the bow of the Red Fox, looking out at the distant sea.

"That's right. I don't know what Blackbeard is thinking, but there must be some secret behind him being content to be an ordinary crew member in the Whitebeard Pirates."

Shanks' experience and intuition made his guess accurate, so he wanted to stop the fight.

"We can already see Whitebeard's ship."

Shanks rested his right hand on the hilt of his sword at his waist, looking at the white dot that appeared on the distant sea.

The Moby Dick! Whitebeard's flagship, almost the size of a naval warship, with its bow resembling a whale's jaw with its vertical stripes, making it look very much like a whale from the front.

When Shanks saw the Moby Dick, the people on the Moby Dick also saw Shanks' Red Fox.

Marco, the captain of the first squadron on the ship, stood at the bow, watching the Red Fosse approach.

"New recruits, all of you, stand back!"

When the Red Voss and the Moby Dick came head-on, Marco immediately spoke up to remind the crew of Whitebeard's ship.

The veteran crew members held their breath in anticipation, while the new crew members were all very puzzled. But soon, their questions were answered.

A powerful burst of Conqueror's Haki erupted from the Red Fox, instantly knocking out all the newcomers on Whitebeard's ship, while the division commander, as an officer, struggled to stay afloat.

Red-haired Shanks, the strongest user of Conqueror's Haki among the Four Emperors, his Haki precedes his arrival!

Just like in the battles in Bleach, the spiritual pressure arrives before the person does!

If you can't even withstand Conqueror's Haki, then you don't even have the right to meet Shanks!

After Shanks paved the way with his Conqueror's Haki, Shanks appeared on the Moby Dick. Li Yue also appeared. Under the pretext of seeing the strongest man on the sea, Li Yue followed Shanks onto Whitebeard's ship. However, no one's attention was on him, because Shanks was walking in front of him!

Seeing that this kid from Roger's ship had given him a hard time right from the start, Whitebeard grabbed his long-handled sword, Murakumogiri, and slashed at Shanks. Shanks, in turn, drew his Griffin sword and met Whitebeard's blade head-on.

The collision between the two caused black and red lightning to appear in the sky, a result of the clash of Conqueror's Haki.

Watching the two collide, Li Yue couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "The people in the One Piece world are all incredibly monstrous in terms of physique."

The two clashed briefly before ceasing their attack and did not continue clashing.

"It's been so long, redhead."

"Yes, it's been a long time, Whitebeard."

The two put away their weapons, sat down on the spot, and began to talk.

What happened to your left hand?

The last time Shanks saw Whitebeard, both of his hands were intact, but this time, Shanks' left hand was missing.

You look surprised.

"A man like you, who would be surprised to return with an arm lost in the East China Sea?"

Whitebeard looked down at Shanks from his superior height.

When Whitebeard asked him a question, Shanks put his right hand on his left shoulder and couldn't help but laugh.

"My left hand? Ha~ I'll bet it..."
