Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

Whitebeard nodded, waved his hand, and said, "In that case, you can get lost!"

Perospero didn't mind and followed Brulee out of the mirror.

As soon as he left, Whitebeard immediately said, "From now on, remove all the mirrors from the ship. Now I know why Reina didn't allow mirrors to be installed on the sky island. This ability is really disgusting!"

"Yes, Father!" Immediately, a crew member removed all the mirrors from the ship and threw them into the sea.

At the front lines, Jozu and Vista, leading the Whitebeard Pirates and Cracker, leading the Big Mom Pirates, are pressing the Navy forward step by step, while the Navy fights and retreats.

Behind them was Katakuri, who led the elite assault team of the Big Mom Pirates, directly circling behind the Marines. However, Sengoku seemed to have been prepared, having Sakazuki block Katakuri's assault team, allowing the main Marine force to continue its retreat.

"Gurararara... As expected of the Sengoku period, you've seen through me completely. Those brats from the Linlin family are still too young!" Whitebeard laughed loudly upon seeing the situation at the front.

He was confident that if Reina were in command of this battle, it would be virtually impossible for Sengoku to escape unscathed. In fact, if he and Lingling were to intervene, he was even certain that he could keep Sengoku here.

However, there's no need for it. They don't benefit from this war; fulfilling their agreed-upon duties is enough.

After a day and a night of fierce fighting with the navy, the navy finally retreated, leaving behind the wreckage of five warships.

After counting their spoils, the Big Mom Pirates didn't look too happy. Although they had defeated the Navy in this battle, their gains were pitifully small.

After the war, the Big Mom Pirates delivered a giant turtle as promised, the shell of which was about the size of an ordinary pirate ship.

“Then our alliance agreement ends here. If there are any conflicts in the future, we can only meet on the battlefield!” Vista said to Katakuri as he helped Reina sign for the turtle.

“Of course!” Katakuri nodded and replied.

Although he felt there was something more to Vista's words, the two pirate crews had just cooperated to defeat the Navy, so he didn't think much of it.

However, just as the Whitebeard Pirates left, the members of the Big Mom Pirates suddenly discovered that several islands in their territory had been attacked and their treasures had been looted.

Based on the accounts of the chess players who remained behind, Katakuri quickly identified the culprits: the Whitebeard Pirates.

It was only then that they realized that the few pirate ships that Whitebeard had sent out to distract the Navy and engage them in minor skirmishes had not participated in the battle with the Navy at all. Instead, they had taken advantage of their unpreparedness and quietly infiltrated the territory of Whole Cake Island to hide.

As soon as their alliance agreement ended, Reina immediately led his men to attack the islands and plundered a large amount of treasure.

"Katakuri...please thank Sister Linlin for me. If you need anything in the future, just let me know, and I'll definitely do my best to help...hahaha..." Reina, along with Rakuyo and the others, plundered at least six or seven small islands. All the pirate ships were packed full, and everyone was extremely happy.

However, they were unaware that on their own territory, Shanks, with his chosen allies, was preparing to begin his conquest of the New World.

"Zehahaha... Red-haired kid! Aren't you one of the Pirate King Roger's crew? What are you doing here?" Teach, who was sent out on patrol by Marco, happened to run into Shanks, who was preparing to set sail.

"It's you? That monster who never sleeps on Whitebeard's ship?" Shanks still had some impression of Teach, and this was Whitebeard's territory, so it wasn't surprising to run into him.

"Tell me, what brings you here?" Teach has been suppressed by Reina for years, and Marco, as an elder of Whitebeard's ship, although he did not help Reina suppress Teach, he also did not show the same familial concern for Teach, which is why he sent him out on patrol.

"What our boss is doing here is none of your business to say, is it?" Sniper Yasopp couldn't stand people who relied on their powerful backers to speak, so he directly confronted Teach.

Teach was already frustrated because he couldn't fully integrate into the Whitebeard Pirates, so when he heard Yasopp's words, he immediately got angry.

So the two sides, filled with anger, naturally started fighting. Marco, who was not far away, immediately received the news and brought his men over.

"Boom boom boom~~~"

When Marco arrived at the island, the harbor had been completely destroyed and was unrecognizable from what it used to be.

"Damn it... Who is this person? Is someone trying to cause trouble at this time?" Marco transformed into a phoenix and flew towards the place where the battle was taking place.

"Boss, the Whitebeard Pirates are here, let's go!" The chubby Lucky Roux grabbed Shanks, who was covering his eyes with one hand, and quickly retreated.

Teach, who had lost several teeth and could barely stand, was powerless to give chase and could only watch helplessly as Shanks retreated under the protection of his comrades.

"Teach, what happened? Are you alright?" Marco, who had just landed, was startled by Teach's injuries and quickly asked.

“N-nothing… Captain Marco, the other party is… is that redhead from Roger’s ship…” Teach said before collapsing.

He fought Shanks and his entire crew single-handedly by the river. If he hadn't unleashed his full power and injured Shanks when he was off guard, he would have thought he was doomed.

Marco glanced in the direction Shanks and the others had fled, but did not order them to give chase. Instead, he took Teach back to the ship for treatment. With the Whitebeard Pirates currently on a campaign abroad, they needed to be careful.

Meanwhile, Fleet Admiral Kong, along with Garp, cornered the notorious pirate Baroric Redfield on a small island. A battle ensued, and after defeating Kong, Redfield, exhausted, was captured by Garp and his men and imprisoned in Impel Down.

Unaware of all this, Reina, after reuniting with Whitebeard with the stolen treasure, purchased new summoning scrolls.

"That's really...too expensive!" After turning the giant turtle into his summoned beast, Reina was still a little heartbroken about the points he had spent.

He thought he only needed to spend 1,000 points to buy a summoning scroll, but he forgot that his summoning beast limit was already full, so he had to spend another 10,000 points to buy a summoning beast quantity limit scroll.

This scroll that increases the number of summoned beasts only increases his limit by a small amount, and it also has a usage restriction; he can only use it twice.

In other words, after he has three summoned beasts, he must purchase a more expensive summoned beast quantity limit upgrade scroll to increase the maximum number of summoned beasts he can carry. This summoned beast quantity limit upgrade scroll costs 50,000 points and can be used twice.

After figuring it out completely, Reina had a feeling of déjà vu, like he had played some trashy web games in his past life. Those trashy web games were all about tricking players into spending money and then reaping their wealth.

"By the way... why did you get a turtle?" Laco asked, puzzled, looking at Reina's distressed expression.

"Hmph, what do you know? When I get back, I'll invite the doctor to help me modify it and build a house on this turtle shell. Then I won't have to worry about not having a boat when I go out to sea alone again!" Reina said with some pride.

Using a live sea creature as a boat—there's never been such a spectacle before, right?

"Oh? That sounds great! Let me borrow it to play with after you finish building it!" Laqué's eyes lit up when he heard Reina's words, and he said with a hint of excitement.

"You? What are you playing? What's so fun about this? I only made this to make it easier to set sail. You're not going anywhere, so why are you playing it?" Reina blinked and asked, puzzled.

"Don't you think it's cool? It's like sailing on the head of a celestial being. People would be amazed and impressed!" Lakyo said with a chuckle.

Reina's face darkened, and he asked, "So... you guys often go out to play on your scooters?"

"Ahem... well... occasionally... I just saw you having a lot of fun with Olga~" Lakyo said a little embarrassedly.

"Forget it, I can't be bothered with you. I'm going to check out the Devil Fruits first!" Reina ignored Rakuyo and walked towards Whitebeard.

However, when he learned that all five Devil Fruits were Zoan-type, his face fell. At least currently, Zoan-type is generally considered the weakest on the high seas, Logia-type is the strongest, and Paramecia-type is very much a matter of luck.

However, Reina knew that although Logia-types were strong in the early stages, they were not invincible in the New World. This was because having Haki meant that Logia-types could break through the most invincible elemental transformation, and the remaining Logia-types might not be as good as Zoan-types and Paramecia-types.

Since he was already mentally prepared, these five Devil Fruits were essentially free, so he didn't say much.

"By the way, big brother, I want one of these Devil Fruits!" Reina said to Whitebeard with a smile.

"Huh? You want to eat it all by yourself?" the white-bearded man asked, surprised.

Reina already possessed quite a few abilities, so he never even considered that Reina would ask for a Devil Fruit.

“No, it’s for people!” Reina said with a mysterious smile.

Whitebeard nodded, which was taken as agreement.

As long as Reina doesn't eat them himself, he has no objection. As for giving them away... he sees these five Devil Fruits as freebies, and he wouldn't mind giving them all away.

When they returned to their base, they learned that Teach had been seriously injured in his battle with Shanks, and that in addition to getting involved in their battle with the Big Mom Pirates, the Navy had also forcibly arrested Barrorick Redfield.

"That's strange! There's been absolutely no movement from Kaido's side?" Reina asked with some surprise. "Marco, have the people monitoring Kaido returned? Why didn't the Beasts Pirates take the opportunity to come over?"

Actually, he had a backup plan in case Kaido suddenly appeared, but unexpectedly, after everything was over, Kaido and his Beasts Pirates did not show up. Instead, Shanks unexpectedly fought with Teach.

Chapter 163 Whitebeard's Greatest Ability

“The people monitoring the Beasts Pirates haven’t reported anything unusual!” Marco shook his head and replied.

“That’s strange! Are our people sure Kaido is at their base?” Reina asked after thinking for a moment.

"Well... that's not certain, but what is certain is that apart from Jack, no other members of the Beasts Pirates have come and gone, and Jack has no intention of participating in our battle with the Big Mom Pirates!" Marco shook his head and said.

“Something’s not right! Logically speaking, if Oden had defeated Kaido and driven him out of Wano Country, he shouldn’t have missed this opportunity!” Reina stroked his chin, thinking as he spoke. “Besides, there’s something strange about Oden’s side. Didn’t he want to open Wano Country to the world? We haven’t heard anything about Wano Country in all these years! Could it be that he still lost to Kaido?”

Just as Reina and Marco were checking the intelligence, Whitebeard came out of the cabin. He had just visited Teach, who was seriously injured but not in mortal danger.

"Dad, this plan was a great success. In addition to severely damaging the Navy, we also robbed the Big Mom Pirates. However, the Beast Pirates haven't made any moves, which makes me a little worried about Wano Country!" Reina quickly stepped forward to report as he saw Whitebeard come out.

"Well, you can handle this yourself! As for Oden... it's been a few years, hasn't it? Even if we rush over now, if something happens, we won't make it in time!" Whitebeard nodded and said.

Reina sighed. He had already warned Oden that if he still lost to Kaido, there was nothing more to say.

"By the way, how is Teach's injury?" Reina suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Huh? Why are you asking this?" Whitebeard looked at Reina with surprise and asked.

Not only Whitebeard, but the surrounding captains also looked at Reina. They all knew that Reina disliked Teach, so when he suddenly asked about Teach's health, their first reaction was that Reina wanted to harm Teach.

“He really did a good job this time. It was all my fault for causing all this trouble, otherwise he wouldn’t have gotten hurt! Didn’t my brother promise to give me a Devil Fruit? I’ll pass that opportunity on to Teach! He hasn’t eaten a Devil Fruit before. Even though it’s a Zoan type, if he develops it properly, it can greatly enhance his strength! He won’t get hurt so easily next time!” Reina said sincerely.

However, his words made everyone, including Whitebeard, very suspicious. Akame Reina was not someone who was easy to talk to!

"Why are you all looking at me like that? Didn't he prove himself this time? The future I see isn't unchangeable. Maybe our familial love will move him?" Reina said with a wry smile when he saw the looks on everyone's faces.

“I’m glad you think that way!” Whitebeard patted Reiner on the shoulder and laughed, “Then let’s do it your way! Send the Devil Fruit to Teach and let him choose one! Gurarara…”

Reina smiled and nodded, then had someone bring him the Devil Fruit. He wanted to go over and watch Teach eat it himself.

Teach's ambitions would later begin with that Dark Fruit. Now, Reina is feeding him a Devil Fruit, directly destroying the foundation of his plans, to see if he still dares to harbor ambitions.

"Teach, the first mate is here to see you!" The person knocking on the door was someone who was usually on good terms with Teach. They were all members of the Second Squad, originally under Oden's command. Now that the Second Squad had no captain, Marco took on the role, so the members of the Second Squad had a very good relationship.

"First Mate Reina, what brings you here? Come in, please!" Teach, whose face was still a little pale, opened the door and saw that it really was Reina. After a moment of surprise, he quickly made way for Reina to come in.

“I heard about what happened this time from Marco. The fact that you were able to fight Shanks and the others like that proves that your strength and potential are excellent, but you still lack some external help! In this war with the Big Mom Pirates, we obtained some Devil Fruits, so Big Brother specifically instructed that you can choose one first! Come on, choose for yourself!” Reina said, waving his hand to let the crew members holding the Devil Fruits behind him come in.

"This... such a valuable thing, giving it to me... wouldn't that be a bit of a waste? There are many companions on the ship who are stronger than me, and they don't even have Devil Fruits yet. Giving it to me directly... wouldn't that be inappropriate?" Teach was stunned for a moment, then looked apprehensive and said.

"Don't worry! You deserve credit for this. Although I saw the future of your destruction of the Whitebeard Pirates through my own eyes, that future was just a possibility! After observing for a while, I realized that I might have been wrong! So please accept our goodwill!" Reina narrowed his eyes and said softly.

"This... thank you for your understanding and trust, First mate? But... but... I've eaten a Devil Fruit before!" Teach quietly hid the Devil Fruit encyclopedia on the bed and said calmly.

If Reina had given him the Devil Fruit and said those words before, Teach would definitely not have refused, would have eaten the fruit immediately, and would have accepted Reina's kindness.

However, this battle with Shanks made him realize that relying on others is not as good as relying on himself. Only by becoming stronger can he go further in the future.

Just before Reina came in, he was looking at the Devil Fruit encyclopedia, searching for the fruit that best suited him.

Unexpectedly, Reina said such a thing at this time, and even gave a great gift.

Yes, although it's a Zoan-type Devil Fruit, it's still quite a generous gift.

"Oh? You've already eaten a Devil Fruit? Why didn't I know? And I've never seen you use your power?" Reina raised an eyebrow and asked with a light laugh.

"Um... I ate the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Revive-Revive Fruit), so it should only activate after I die!" Teach said somewhat embarrassedly.

The Yomi Yomi no Mi (Revive-Revive Fruit) was something he had just seen in the Devil Fruit encyclopedia. Eating this fruit would not grant him any special abilities, but it would make him unable to swim.

Therefore, the author of the Devil's Atlas suspects that the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Revive-Revive Fruit) can only activate its power after death, and this power is likely to be a resurrection.

However, this inference has not been verified, so no one knows if it is true.

"Ah~ the Yomi Yomi no Mi! I know this fruit, but I didn't expect you to be the one who ate it! In that case, I can't let you eat it anymore, otherwise wouldn't that be harming you?" Reina said with a smile.
