Sailing: I Open Treasure Chests in the Pirate World

After a brief introduction, everyone was basically acquainted with each other.

As for other relationships, they need to be cultivated gradually over a long period of time.

After all, this is only the first time we've met.

To get everyone completely familiar with, and even trust each other, in such a short time...

This is a very difficult thing.

Fortunately, neither Nami nor Ace are particularly troublesome troublemakers.

After Ian's personal introduction, the two began to integrate into the group.

After exchanging a few pleasantries and easing the awkward atmosphere,

Ian clapped his hands again, drawing everyone's attention.

"Now, let me introduce you to two more new 'partners'."

"There is one of them whose name you may have already heard of."

"But there's another person, whom I'm introducing to you for the first time today."

With a thought, Ian released the power of the Clay-Clay Fruit, and two figures, one large and one small, appeared behind him.

Whitebeard II, Edward Teach.

The Golden Lion II, Ryan.

however.

Before Ian could introduce these two "clay partners" to Robin and the others...

One person was completely blown away when he saw Whitebeard Jr.

"White beard!"

Ace jumped up from the clay chair with a "whoosh".

Ever since he made up his mind to go to sea and become a pirate, he has had a "dream".

Unlike most pirates' dream of "becoming the Pirate King".

Ace's dream was to become a great pirate, keep winning, achieve the highest honor, and prove his existence to the whole world.

And I want to fulfill this dream.

Ace's greatest enemy is Edward Newgate, the "strongest man in the world"!

Defeat and kill Whitebeard, and take the head of the world's strongest man.

This is the final step in Ace's current "dream"!

Suddenly, a white-bearded figure appeared.

How could Ace not be excited?

Under Ian's strange gaze.

Ace charged toward Whitebeard Jr. like a swift cheetah, at the fastest speed he had ever seen, and at that moment he grasped the "Supreme Water Pipe" he always carried in his palm.

Bang—Crack!

Ace swung the "Supreme Water Pipe" heavily, which first hit Whitebeard Jr. with a dull thud before breaking on the spot.

Whitebeard Jr. remained expressionless, raised his massive, fan-like right hand, and slapped it down on Ace, sending him flying more than ten meters away.

If Ian hadn't carefully controlled his strength, Ace would probably have been completely crushed by that slap!

The Whitebeard Jr. and Golden Lion Jr. of this time are not the same as before.

The bodies of the two current "second great pirates" are products created from the eight-star [Clay-Clay Fruit]!

If we only consider basic physical qualities, namely "strength" and "speed".

Whitebeard Jr. and Golden Lion Jr. are already comparable to the Marine Admirals and Pirate Emperors!

An eight-star Clay Fruit is no joke!

Ace was slapped a long way by Whitebeard Jr., and rolled all over the ground like a rolling gourd.

Seeing Ace in such a sorry state, the others couldn't sit still any longer.

Nami, who felt closest to Ace, ran over to him and helped him up.

"Ace, what are you doing?"

Nami spoke with a mixture of curiosity and complaint.

Why did you attack Lord White Dragon?

"White Dragon? You mean Adrian?"

Ace wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked sharply at Whitebeard Jr.

"I'm challenging Whitebeard!"

“Mr. Ace, this ‘whitebeard’ is actually ‘Whitebeard II’ Edward Teach.”

Robin's magnetic voice rang out at this moment, and she reminded him in a calm and unhurried manner.

"According to the captain's previous statement, Mr. Teach was the first 'crew member' he recruited."

"Whitebeard II? Edward Teach?"

Ace frowned deeply. Having lived in the Colbo Mountains for many years, he had no access to the latest news from the sea and was unaware of the existence of Whitebeard Jr.

"Not just that 'white-bearded' one."

Just then, Nami whispered a reminder to Ace.

"And that blond guy next to him, that's 'Golden Lion II,' Lord Ryan."

Hear this.

Ace's brow furrowed even more.

He had heard the names Whitebeard and Golden Lion from the old man before.

According to the old man, these two "great pirates" once caused the World Government and the Marine Headquarters a great deal of trouble.

Whitebeard is the current Pirate Emperor of the New World.

As for Golden Lion, no one has heard from him since he escaped from Impel Down more than a decade ago.

but.

All of this information is about "Whitebeard" and "Golden Lion".

Ace stared at the two imposing figures standing behind Ian, who resembled guardian deities, utterly perplexed.

What's the story behind these two "second generations"?

"Ahem. 300"

Ian coughed lightly, then pointed to the Whitebeard II standing to the side.

"This is Edward Teach, the second Whitebeard. I believe most of you have seen his bounty poster."

"But what I'm going to tell you now is something else."

"Actually... Edward Teach is me."

Ian had previously told Robin that Edward Teach was the first "crew member" he recruited.

There's nothing wrong with what they're saying.

Who says pirates can't create their own subordinates?

Look at Cracker of the Big Mom Pirates, doesn't he lead a large group of biscuit soldiers?

Those biscuit soldiers were also creations of Charlotte Cracker's Biscuit Fruit, and were also his "subordinates".

But now.

Ian had gathered all the members he had previously recruited, so he naturally couldn't use that excuse anymore.

We're all in the same boat.

Ian felt there was absolutely no need to hide the information about "Whitebeard II" and "Golden Lion II" from them.

however.

Ian had expected this "revelation" to amaze everyone.

However, things didn't go as he expected at all.

"What does the boss mean by that?"

"I don't know, I don't understand."

"Captain, what nonsense are you spouting now? Wasn't this 'Mr. Teach' something you just created with your powers?"

Kidd and Kira were the first to express their opinions.

Robin followed suit and shared her opinion.

Big Bear and Ace frowned, looking at Ian with rather strange expressions.

Bonnie couldn't understand a word Ian was saying.

As for Nami...

The little thief, equally unaware of the situation, ignored the strange looks from the other members and clapped wildly for Lord White Dragon.

"Wow! So that's how it is! Lord White Dragon is truly amazing!"

In the silence of the crowd.

Nami's boastful remarks sounded so jarring.

Ian's lips twitched violently, and his toes were practically digging a castle out of the ground beneath the Sky Garden!

Why did he suddenly reveal to everyone that he was Edward Teach?

"Ian."

Just then, Big Bear spoke softly, presumptuously offering Ian a way out.

What you were actually trying to say was—

"Mr. Edward and Mr. Lane are both colleagues, right?"

What else could Ian say?

Does he really have to explain to others that Whitebeard Jr. and Golden Lion Jr. are actually his "aliases"?

Under the strange looks from everyone.

Ian said in despair.

"That's right! That's exactly it!"

Chapter 142 So what if he's the son of the Pirate King?

Ian told the Fleet Admiral, "I am Edward Teach," but the Fleet Admiral did not believe him.

Ian told his men, "I am Edward Teach," but they didn't believe him.

He never wanted to play "truth or dare" with anyone again.

Whoever takes the initiative becomes the one who is passive.

believe it or not!

“This is Edward Teach, and this is Lane.”

Ian pointed to Whitebeard Jr. and Shiki Jr., ending their conversation in a concise and efficient manner.

"They're with us, but they don't travel with the main group; they have other things to take care of."

As for what else Whitebeard Jr. and Golden Lion Jr. need to deal with...

Ian himself didn't know either.

However, this doesn't stop Kuma, Robin, and the others from filling in the blanks with their imaginations.
