"0!"

"The quiz officially begins!"

[Marco: Sphinx! (Answer the question)]

This time, when the Miracle Space announced the start of the quiz.

It was rare that only Marco answered the questions.

No one else answered immediately.

[Warring States: Sphinx? This name seems familiar...]

[Crane: If I remember correctly, according to the investigation of the Navy Headquarters, Whitebeard seems to secretly send some treasures to this island called Sphinx every year. ]

[Zhan Guo: Yes, I remember that there is indeed such a thing, so we have speculated before that this Sphinx is very likely to be Whitebeard's hometown, but apart from sending the treasure back, Whitebeard did not do anything special, so the Navy Headquarters did not pay much attention to it. ]

[Gol D. Roger: So, after the Battle of the End, Marco actually returned to Whitebeard's hometown to live in seclusion? ]

· ······Request flowers···· ·

[Edward Newgate: Gulala~ Marco, your answer is exactly what I thought~]

[Marco: Oh? Dad, have you thought about this a long time ago? That's right, Sphinx is your hometown, it's normal for you to think of this, but why didn't you answer just now? ]

[Edward Newgate: Gulala~ Because this is your personal appraisal video, you are most likely to get the answers to the following questions right, and you have already answered one question right, earning a few points. With this point, you can temporarily take the lead and rank first. In addition, you are most likely to get the answers to the following questions right, so when the final settlement is made, you are likely to be the first, and you can take both rewards by yourself. This is definitely the most profitable approach.]

[Marco: I see, Dad, you actually considered so much! ]

[Joz: Hey! That makes sense! Dad is so smart! ]

[Vista: As expected of my father, he is a man of foresight! ]

. ....... .......

[Lakuyo: To be honest, my dad’s IQ is definitely the ceiling of our Whitebeard Pirates! ]

[Namur: Dad, the eternal God!!!]

[Edward Newgate: Okay, you little brats, stop flattering me here. I have a clear understanding of myself. It would be bad if I was blown away by you.]

"There are only five seconds left to answer the question. Audience members who have not answered the question yet, please answer as soon as possible!"

"5!"

"4!"

"..."

"1!"

"0!"

"It's time to answer the question!"

"Congratulations Marco for answering correctly and getting some points!"

[Izo: Great, you got it right! ]

[Bramank: In this way, Marco has already obtained two points. He is currently ranked first. He has a great chance of winning this round of rewards, and it is very likely that he will win two rewards alone! ]

[Marco: I don’t know if there will be life potions in this round of prize pool. If there are, then Dad’s old injuries and chronic diseases can be completely cured, and his strength can return to or even surpass the peak! ]

[Zhan Guo: Humph! You guys should not think too highly of yourself. This round of questions has not yet ended, and the final result is still unknown. In our navy, Garp and Borsalino have both received some points. As long as we work harder, maybe all the rewards will go to our navy, and you won't get any reward at all!]

[Edward Newgate: Gulala~ Sengoku, I think the possibility you mentioned is no less than the possibility of the old captain being resurrected~]

[Zhan Guo: Haha, Whitebeard, don't exaggerate here. The possibility of Rocks' resurrection is 0. This is an indisputable fact. Although the possibility of our navy getting the exclusive reward this round is small, it is definitely not the same as the possibility of Rocks' resurrection! ]

[Locks D. Gibeck: ??? You guys are not done yet, are you? !!! !!! !!! 】Shan.

Chapter 304: Marco's final mission, go to Wano Country and defeat Kaido! [Please order the whole thing]

On the projection screen, the video continues——

After the final battle between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Blackbeard Pirates.

Marco came to the Sphinx alone.

Behind a waterfall on this island lies a very secluded, peaceful and tranquil village.

This village was built with the money that Whitebeard secretly sent back every year.

There are not many people in the village, but there are men, women, young and old.

The island is also home to many "Sphinxes", creatures that share the same name as the island and have the bodies of lions and faces of humans, with wings on their backs.

Different from the brutal Sphinx beast on the second underground floor of Impel Down.

The Sphinx beasts in this village are all very gentle and get along very well with the local villagers.

They will even take the initiative to help villagers with farm work and heavy work.

The villagers also feed them a lot of food.

Because of the huge waterfall blocking the view, few people can find this village.

It can be said that this place is simply like a paradise.

It is worth mentioning that the tombs of Whitebeard and Ace were built on this island.

It is not far from the village.

After Marco came to this village, he began to settle here as a doctor.

He did this not only so that he could visit the deceased Whitebeard and Ace from time to time.

At the same time, it is also to protect the last "legacy" left by Whitebeard "177".

After settling in the village, Marco quickly established good relationships with the villagers.

With the "Resurrection Blue Flame" granted by the Bird-Bird Fruit, the Mythical Beast, and the Phoenix Form,

Whether it's the villagers or the sphinx beasts,

As long as they have any injuries.

Marco can treat them immediately.

Because of this, although Marco has only arrived recently, he is quite popular and loved by the local villagers.

The camera switches and the images flow.

The days passed one by one in such a peaceful life.

In the blink of an eye, it was already a year later.

At this time, more than two years have passed since the end of the War of Marineford.

One day, the peaceful Sphinx Island welcomed a group of new guests.

That was a group of furry knights led by Cat Viper.

Under the instructions of Cat Viper, the members of the Fur Tribe stayed at the edge of the island and did not run around.

The cat viper came alone to the village behind the huge waterfall.

Found Marco.

on the screen.

Cat Viper, with a bandage on his left hand, sat quietly by the side, smoking a pipe, watching Marco treating an injured Sphinx beast in front of him.

After the treatment was over, Marco brought Cat Viper to his cabin and sat down.

The two old friends who had not seen each other for a long time started talking.

Marco was the first to speak: "This is the village created by Dad."

"Old man with white beard? What's going on?" asked Cat Viper curiously.

Marco lowered his head slightly, a nostalgic smile appeared on his face, and explained:

"The country on this island was once unable to join the world government because of its poverty and inability to pay the high heavenly gold."

"Although this is true for most non-member countries, with pirates and human traffickers running rampant... In short, this was once a lawless island."

"The country eventually went to ruin, and only the number of unfortunate orphans continued to increase. Dad was one of them."

"My father went to sea when he was young, and even after he became a pirate, he always cared about this land."

"So he hid his identity and secretly sent the dirty money and supplies he obtained back here."

“Dad had no family in the beginning, and even his childhood friends are gone, but this land is still home to him.”

After hearing Marco's explanation, Cat Viper took a deep puff of his pipe, then slowly exhaled a cloud of smoke and said in a deep voice:

"In this dirty world, there is no distinction between dirty and clean money..."

Marco sighed, then looked up at the clouds passing by in the sky and whispered:

"Thank you very much."

"After the Battle of Marineford, we thought we should at least defend what our father was protecting."

"But Blackbeard started the final battle. We were no match for Teach, who had acquired his father's power. Everything was taken away from us..."

"I originally wanted to give that ungrateful bastard a scare..."

From Marco's helpless tone, Cat Viper could clearly hear the reluctance and sadness in his heart, as well as his anger and hatred towards Blackbeard.

After saying this, Marco and Cat Viper both fell into a brief silence.

After a while, Marco continued:

"Dad... Dad is actually very stingy."

"Always wanting other people's drinks, never buying me a drink in the store."

"Because he sent all his treasure here!"

"Actually, everyone knows..."

As he spoke, Marco, who had been relatively calm, suddenly couldn't help crying.

Even the voice became a little trembling.

He lowered his head, took off his glasses, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Force yourself to calm down again.

In fact, this kind of sudden loss of emotional control has occurred quite frequently in the past two years.

Whenever I think of Whitebeard's voice, smile, and every little thing about my past in the Whitebeard Pirates.

He would always cry secretly like this, and then quickly force himself to calm down.

[Edward Newgate: Marco, you must have endured a lot in the past two years...]

[Joz: Having been with Marco for such a long time, I have rarely seen him lose control of his emotions like this.]

Portgas D. Ace: Marco actually lost control of his emotions. This shows that he has endured too much...

[Vista: We have lost so many things one after another, including Dad, Ace, other friends, and maybe even me... Marco has lost so much, it is really hard to bear. ]

[Fosa: In fact, the dead may not be that painful. The one who is really painful... is actually the one who is left behind! ]

[Izo: I think that Marco in the video may have thought about ending it all, but the mission of protecting the village left by his father kept him going. It was not easy for him either...]

[Marco: Hey, hey, what are you all sighing about? It's a bit too sad, isn't it? Aren't we all fine now? There's no need to keep creating this sad atmosphere, right?]

[Edward Newgate: Gulala~ That's true. Sighing all day long is not in line with the style of our Whitebeard Pirates. My silly sons, cheer up! ]

[Joz: But... Dad, it seems like you were the one who started the wave of sadness just now, right? ]

[Vista: Yeah, I didn’t think so much about it originally. It was you, Dad, who first said that Marco must have endured a lot in the past two years, and then we followed suit and expressed our feelings.]

[Lakyo: Hahaha! Dad has to take the blame for this! ]

[Kuliel: That's right, this wave is definitely your fault, Dad, don't try to blame it on us! ]

[Edward Newgate: ??? Great! You little brats, you've all grown cocky, haven't you?! You actually dared to talk back to me, your father?! It seems like it's time to give you some loving whipping, so that you know what fatherly love is like! Well, Joz, let's start with you!]

[Joz: (ΩДΩ)!!! Stop it! Dad, I was just kidding! Don’t take it seriously!!!]

[Vista: Hehe, yes, Dad, we just wanted to make a joke to liven up the atmosphere and ease the previous sad mood. Please don’t take it seriously! ]

[Edward Newgate: Gulala~ You little bastards, it's useless to explain now. My fatherly love can no longer be restrained and is about to burst out. You'd better be prepared to bear the fatherly love of me! ]
