Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

However, when Shiraishi Osamu appeared, he was the only one at the pinnacle of power in the world.

"Kid, you're just as arrogant as the rumors say. Are you really going to kill a Celestial Dragon directly? It's really beneath you to be in a place like the Navy on July 27th."

Upon hearing Shiraishi's words, Whitebeard smiled proudly, revealing his unique kingly aura.

As soon as Whitebeard finished speaking, a terrifying aura, like that of a king, spread out, sweeping in all directions like a storm.

This terrified everyone nearby; those who were weaker immediately knelt down, and some even fainted on the spot.

Those with stronger abilities include several division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates, such as Thatch and Marco.

His face was also deathly pale, and cold sweat was trickling down his forehead.

"Dad is angry."

"It's been a long time since I've seen Dad get angry so quickly."

"That guy really is as unruly as the rumors say. No wonder he killed a Celestial Dragon in Mary Geoise. But messing with Daddy is even more terrifying than messing with a Celestial Dragon."

The terrifying aura made Sachi and the others tremble with fear.

Throughout his many years of traversing the seas, there have been few who dared to speak to Whitebeard like that.

They originally thought that with Whitebeard's involvement, Shiraishi Osamu would at least give them some face.

The two sides even stopped fighting on the spot and made peace, after all, Whitebeard's title as the strongest man in the world is still very convincing.

But Shiraishi Osamu, as expected of the man who killed a Celestial Dragon in Mary Geoise, doesn't give face to anyone.

A terrifying, overwhelming aura of a king swept in.

But Osamu Shiraishi, who was at the center of the storm, seemed completely unaffected.

He remained calm as he gazed at the white-bearded man.

He had anticipated Whitebeard's attitude.

Pirates are inherently a rebellious group who dislike following other people's rules.

Whitebeard, as the king of pirates, was incredibly domineering.

It would be difficult to get him to pay the toll, but the more difficult it was, the less Shiraishi Xiu could let him go.

Once Whitebeard is defeated, no one will ever dare to trespass on Fish-Man Island without paying a toll again.

Shiraishi Xiu was certainly not going to let go of such a good opportunity to intimidate others.

The unruly whitebeard was not going to pay the toll, and it was no use even if Shiraishi Osamu tried to be nicer.

But Shiraishi Osamu still needed to get Whitebeard to pay the toll.

Therefore, the conflict between the two sides was actually inevitable.

Since that's the case, Shiraishi Osamu was naturally too lazy to do anything else.

The king's anger can intimidate others, but here, there is only one true king, and that is Osamu Shiraishi himself!

"Kid, even Garp wouldn't dare talk to me like that."

Seeing Shiraishi's state, Whitebeard was enraged and immediately drew his weapon, slashing at Shiraishi.

Whitebeard's weapon was a long sword, the Grand Grade Sword of the Twelve Swords, Murakumogiri.

At this moment, he slashed down with his sword, the blade flashing with a chilling white light, aiming at Bai Shixiu with a thunderous crash.

Shiraishi Xiu remained calm, his fist, enveloped in jet-black Armament Haki, directly meeting the attack head-on, appearing completely unremarkable.

Chapter 0208: Ordinary

But the moment Whitebeard's blade collided with Shiraishi Osamu's fist.

boom!

A terrifying explosion suddenly rang out, and huge shockwaves exploded between Shiraishi Xiu and Whitebeard.

"This is bad, retreat quickly."

"This guy, he actually..."

Rings of air currents spread outwards, forcing the Whitebeard Pirates' captains to retreat.

For a moment, only Whitebeard and Shiraishi Xiu stood in the center of the field.

"That guy actually caught Dad's great sword with his fist? That's Murakumogiri!"

"Is this guy even human?"

"Even a cyborg couldn't have such a hard body."

The ten people, including Hanama Vista, who had retreated to a distance, stared at Shiraishi Shu, whose fists had collided with Whitebeard's Great Grade Sword. Their pupils shrank suddenly, and their faces were filled with disbelief.

Whitebeard was already incredibly strong, and with the Supreme Grade Sword Murakumogiri in his hand...

This would be like adding wings to a tiger; such a slash would likely be so powerful that even Iron Fist Garp would have to avoid its edge.

But Shiraishi Osamu actually used Armament Haki to meet the attack head-on and successfully blocked it.

The battle between Shiraishi Osamu and Whitebeard continued, and Shiraishi Osamu blocked his slash with his fist.

Whitebeard was also somewhat surprised, but he quickly regained his composure and unleashed a barrage of slashes, one after another, like a torrential downpour.

Shiraishi Xiu showed no sign of backing down. His fist, enveloped in jet-black Armament Haki, struck the blade precisely, producing a series of explosive sounds.

The air itself seemed to be twisted and torn apart by the fierce battle.

A series of jet-black cracks, resembling spider webs, appeared around Shiraishi Xiu and Whitebeard.

A sound like a mirror shattering rang out, and the air seemed to crack inch by inch, just like a mirror.

Spiderweb-like cracks spread out in all directions.

The two strongest people in the world thus began a terrifying battle near Fishman Island.

The fierce battle caused the surrounding seawater to surge wildly.

Shiraishi Xiu frowned slightly, carefully controlling the force he applied.

They did not want the aftermath of the battle to be too great and affect the nearby Fishman Island.

But Whitebeard showed no restraint whatsoever, each slash carrying a devastating force.

For a moment, it seemed that Whitebeard had the upper hand.

He was suppressing Shiraishi Shuu.

"As expected of Dad, no matter what kind of monster it is, it's no match for Dad at all."

"Hmph, this brat has gotten used to throwing his weight around in the Navy, thinking he's invincible."

Seeing this scene, Marco and the other squad leaders finally showed some joy.

This dissipated much of the previous tension and stress.

727

Previously, although they had confidence in Whitebeard, they were still somewhat afraid of the name of the demon Shiraishi Osamu. But now, they believed that Whitebeard was the strongest in the world and no one could challenge him. Shiraishi Osamu tried his best to lead Whitebeard in another direction, and then suddenly turned around.

"Being restricted is really troublesome."

Shiraishi Osamu murmured to himself.

Rumble!

A sound like thunder suddenly echoed all around.

"It's thundering?"

Sachi looked up with considerable confusion. Something was wrong; this was Fishman Island, thousands of meters underwater. How could this be…?

Chapter 0209: Fierce Clash

boom!

A tremendous roar resounded, as if the heavens and earth were shaking. Near Shi Xiu and Whitebeard, faint flashes of silvery-white lightning could be seen.

A terrifying aura swept in all directions, causing the Whitebeard Pirates' division commanders, who had hidden in the back, to turn pale and feel a chill run down their spines.

The crackling sound seemed to distort the air itself.

"This guy... he actually managed to go toe-to-toe with Dad."

"Conqueror's Haki! This guy actually possesses Conqueror's Haki. Was he a Marine before?"

"A former Marine, that's all. He's the first Marine to possess Conqueror's Haki."

"No wonder he killed a Celestial Dragon in Mary Geoise. How could someone with Conqueror's Haki be ordered around by others?"

The rare clash of Conqueror's Haki left Marco, Thatch, and the other division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates looking on with trepidation and tension.

The powerful Conqueror's Haki that Shiraishi Osamu displayed surprised them even more.

Although there are quite a few great pirates in the Grand Line who possess Conqueror's Haki.

However, it is very rare for a Marine to possess Conqueror's Haki. This is the first time they have seen one, even though he is a former Marine.

After all, Conqueror's Haki is an innate ability, not something that can be cultivated through hard work.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be so rare, only one in a million.

Even within the Whitebeard Pirates, only Whitebeard possessed Conqueror's Haki.

This is something that Marco and others cannot learn through hard work and training.

The intense Conqueror's Haki that Shiraishi Xiu was displaying at this moment was clearly not something he had just awakened, but something he had possessed for a long time.

In other words, this guy already possessed Conqueror's Haki when he was still a Marine Admiral.

Marco and the other squad leaders were a little incredulous, but after looking at Shiraishi Osamu, they felt it was only natural.

He was able to kill a Celestial Dragon at the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, and immediately defect from the Navy, abandoning his position as a Marine Admiral.

It seems somewhat natural for such a person to possess Conqueror's Haki.

Electricity was generated in the void, producing a crackling sound.

The massive longsword in Whitebeard's hand, the Supreme Grade Sword Murakumogiri, gleamed with a bright white light as it collided violently with Shiraishi Shu's fist, which was enveloped in jet-black Armament Haki.

It was like the earth was shaking, as if the heavens and earth were trembling.
