Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 442 A person whose name even Uchiha Sasuke dared not mention!

"Hey, don't just assign people tasks like that!"

Marco was a little unhappy. Who did Uchiha Sasuke think he was, daring to order him around as the captain of the 1st Division of the Whitebeard Pirates!

Sasuke Uchiha's voice came from inside the room, somewhat leisurely: "If you're not going, then I'll use the excuse of a sparring match to beat up Vista the Flower Sword. He's been itching to challenge me... You should feel sorry for your family, right?"

"...Bastard!!"

Marco couldn't help but clench his fists.

That bastard actually threatened him with Vista the Flower Sword! How could Uchiha Sasuke be so wicked? He's really not human at all!

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't beat Sasuke Uchiha, Marco really wanted to have a good fight with him and show him that the Whitebearded Captain of the 1st Division wasn't someone to be trifled with...

Unfortunately, Marco couldn't beat Sasuke.

Marco still remembers the day he transformed into a phoenix, only to be pinned to the ground by a giant purple arrow…

This guy is really suppressing his abilities too much!

After hearing Marco angrily leave outside the room, Sasuke Uchiha slowly lowered his head and muttered to himself, "That guy's methods... were really effective!"

On this vast ocean, many people disregard their own lives, but become extremely obedient when their relatives and friends are mentioned.

That's the approach...

That's a bit inhuman.

late at night.

Marco landed in front of Ace.

Marco frowned, looking at the somewhat dejected Ace, and said coldly, "Hey, are you going to keep causing trouble? The old man and Sasuke Uchiha on this ship are waiting for your choice!"

"What?"

Ace looked up in surprise.

Marco, thinking he hadn't understood, explained softly, "Your father and Sasuke Uchiha are both waiting for you! Your father has given you over a hundred chances to stay on this ship, and Sasuke Uchiha has been waiting for you here all along..."

"..."

Ace fell silent.

Regardless, the fact that this prisoner had assassinated Whitebeard more than a hundred times and was still able to stay on the ship shows that Whitebeard was indeed very magnanimous.

Not everyone can tolerate someone jumping around on their head.

Marco spread his palms and said in a deep voice, "What exactly do you want? Haven't you found the answer yet?"

"If you want to leave this ship, go talk to your father! If you want to stay, go talk to Uchiha Sasuke!"

After saying that, Marco slowly stood up, waved his hand, and said, "Oh, right, Sasuke sent me. He asked me to ask you whether you want to become the Pirate King, or if you want a home or something... Basically, he's asking if you'd like to stay on this ship and become our crewmate, right?"

Marco couldn't help but smile, and said softly, "Sasuke is pretty awful, but he's right. Dad really gave us a home, giving us, the kind of people the world hates, a reason to live..."

"..."

Ace slowly lowered his head, muttering to himself, "Are all the people on this ship... people hated by the world?"

The next moment, Ace suddenly shook his head and whispered, "Forget it, I don't want to continue. Let Whitebeard kill me. I... can't stay on this ship... and I can't let Sasuke waste any more of my time..."

"…idiot."

Marco rolled his dead fish eyes and couldn't help but curse.

The night grew deeper.

The moonlight grew brighter and brighter.

Ace sat in Whitebeard's room, his face a mask of deathly calm: "Just kill me! I'm Gol D. Roger's son. You're enemies, aren't you? I can't stay on your ship!"

At that moment, Estan revealed his identity.

"I thought you were going to say something..."

After a moment of silence, the white-bearded man's face showed a nostalgic expression: "You're that guy's son... but..."

The white-bearded man suddenly smiled and said loudly, "Regardless of who gave birth to us, everyone is a child of the sea, and everyone has the right to choose how to live..."

"..."

Ace looked somewhat surprised.

The white-bearded man's hand suddenly landed on Ace's shoulder, and he grinned, "Ace, kid, whether you want to stay here or leave is your own choice. If you leave, then don't die easily... If you want to stay, then become my son!"

"..."

Ace fell silent.

Ace is exceptionally busy tonight.

After Ace left Whitebeard's room, he rushed to Sasuke's room. Just as he was about to knock on the door, Sasuke's voice came from inside: "Ace, whatever decision you make, I will support you. You don't need to tell me."

I want to stay.

"I see."

Lying on the bed, Sasuke Uchiha slowly said, "As long as you don't regret it, that's enough. I said I would support your choice... Go and get some rest!"

"Sasuke..."

Ace shook his head, remaining outside the door without leaving. He even spoke through the doorway, trying to persuade him: "We all have the right to choose how we live. If you still want to challenge that very strong enemy..."

"Shut up and get out!"

Sasuke Uchiha's forehead twitched.

According to his Observation Haki, Ace had left the room.

A glint flashed in Sasuke's eyes, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Did Uehara guess right again? What do you mean everyone has the right to live... Our lives are still in someone else's control..."

It must be said that...

The atmosphere in the Whitebeard Pirates is indeed quite good.

Now that the Spade Pirates have officially merged into the Whitebeard Pirates, the Whitebeard Pirates have indeed become more stable and their strength has increased considerably.

Because in addition to the members of the Spade Pirates, there is also Jinbe and his Fishman Pirates, which is a force that should not be underestimated.

After Jinbe's position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea was abolished, the Fishman Pirates were also expelled by the new Seven Warlord, Kisame Hoshigaki. Jinbe simply took his subordinates and joined Whitebeard's crew.

Their current strength can be described as having a powerful army.

In that case…

They just need to take down an enemy who has provoked them!

The first one chosen was naturally Kisame Hoshigaki, the new Shichibukai who drove out the Fishman Pirates and occupied Fishman Island.

After all, Fishman Island is where the Whitebeard's flag flies!

Kisame Hoshigaki's occupation of Fishman Island is tantamount to provoking Whitebeard, which means declaring war on the Whitebeard Pirates!

early morning.

On the Moby Dick.

A group of captains angrily demanded war, determined to teach Kisame Hoshigaki, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, a lesson he was not to be trifled with. Even the composed Marco agreed with this.

"I advise you not to do that."

Sasuke Uchiha sat casually on the railing and said coldly, "Kisame Hoshigaki isn't so easy to deal with. Although Kisame isn't very strong, he's still not someone you can handle."

"You bastard, what did you say?"

"One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea..."

"We are the Whitebeard Pirates!"

"Shut up, all of you!"

Marco silenced the others and looked at Uchiha Sasuke, asking, "Hey, Sasuke, do you know him?"

"know."

Sasuke Uchiha frowned and said softly, "That guy used to be my brother's comrade, right? Although I wish I could kill him, the fact that he's still alive... You should know how difficult he is to deal with, right?"

"Is he Itachi's companion?"

The only person who knew Itachi Uchiha was Ace, and he couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity: "That Kisame Hoshigaki... isn't he even stronger than Sasuke?"

Marco's face showed surprise. If that was the case, Kisame Hoshigaki's strength did indeed need to be assessed.

"Hey, Ace!"

Sasuke Uchiha glanced at Ace and said with displeasure, "Don't compare me to trash like Kisame Hoshigaki!"

The white-bearded man seemed to have heard something funny, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips: "Gurarararar..."

Ace: "..."

Marco: "..."

Sasuke just said these captains weren't even as good as Kisame, but now he's praising himself. Are these captains really not as good as that trash you were talking about?

"Hey, I'm serious."

Sasuke Uchiha remained calm. He slowly looked at Ace and said coldly, "Ace, remember when I said there was someone stronger than me? Kisame Hoshigaki and my brother Itachi Uchiha are his subordinates. Don't mess with him..."

"Gurala la la la..."

The white-bearded man grinned, looking at Sasuke and unable to resist asking, "Is there really someone in this world that even a brat like you would admit to?"

Whitebeard had fought Sasuke, and he knew just how strong Sasuke was, which made him even more curious about the person Sasuke was talking about…

"That guy? He's terrifyingly strong."

Sasuke Uchiha gripped his cup tighter and said in a low voice, "That guy is someone whose name I dare not even mention... His subordinates... all call him a true god... Speaking of which, his power can indeed be called godlike..."

Sasuke Uchiha continued in a deep voice, "If you're going to provoke Kisame Hoshigaki and the person behind him, I can only ask if the cemetery on Fishman Island is big enough to bury so many of you..."

"You bastard, are you mocking us?"

"Pirates aren't easily intimidated!"

"Don't worry, the Sea Forest on Fishman Island is vast enough to bury many people..."

"You idiot, is this the time to be talking about this?!"

The Whitebeard Pirates immediately became lively again.

As the strongest pirate crew in the world, the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates were very confident, and they didn't think that what Sasuke Uchiha said could scare them.

Whitebeard grinned at everyone present, then showed a smile to Sasuke: "Hey, Sasuke, don't underestimate me. I'm Whitebeard, you know!"

Bubbling...

Bubbling...

Fortunately, at that moment, Marco's Den Den Mushi rang. A hurried voice came through: "Captain Marco, the Kaido Pirates are attacking our territory! And the leader... is Jack the Drought!"

"..."

That's good now.

The most troublesome enemy has emerged first.

After Marco calmed the person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, he looked up at Whitebeard: "Dad, it seems there's an even more troublesome enemy. Shall we go and take care of Kaido's men first?"

"Let's go then!"

Second update!
