Chapter 71 - The Ambition of Blackbeard

“Pops, what are you talking about, you’re the strongest now.” After Marco heard from Whitebeard, he said in a hurry.

After Marco finished, Diamond Jozu, Flower Sword Vista and others also followed, “Yes, Pops. Even if there is to be a New World King, it can only be you, Pops.”

“Haha, I’m not interested in this king.” Whitebeard laughed and said.

Whitebeard’s wish had always been to stay with his sons just fine. The name of the Four Emperor Pirate King and so on was not important to Whitebeard, and he did not care to fight for such things.

However, when Marco still wanted to say something, a pirate rushed over to the back of the deck and said loudly, “Father, Teach racks small boat away!”

“What?!” When Whitebeard heard the news, he immediately frowned, “What foolishness this guy do?”

Previously, Blackbeard Teach persuaded Whitebeard to conquer Wexford, but Whitebeard did not agree. Yet, could this thing let Blackbeard Teach to leave?

“Pops, do I need to go get him back?” Marco looked towards the boat that was already about to disappear from view and said to Whitebeard.

“Sure, I’d like to see what this kid is thinking.”

By the time Whitebeard said this, his whole face had been black. For so many years, this was the first time the crew directly racked the boat to leave. This was an unacceptable thing for Whitebeard. Was there something that could not be said to him, the ‘old man’?

“Okay, I’m on my way.”

After Marco finished, he turned into a huge blue undead bird, heading straight for the increasingly distant boat.

Since Marco had the advantage of the air, although Teach had set off much earlier, he was still caught up by Marco.

…….

“Teach! What are you doing!”

Marco flew in the air and shouted loudly to the Blackbeard Teach below.

Teach, who had already been overwhelmed by Nagi Nagi no Mi, raised his head, a pair of bloodshot eyes glaring at Marco, “We must get rid of them first, or we won’t stand a chance once this group enters the New World!”

Blackbeard said this, of course, was not to what the Whitebeard Pirates, but he felt that Wexford and his party were now so strong. So when they broke through the marine blockade to the New World, it was not an exponential increase in strength?

At that time, even if Teach with the Whitebeard Pirates together, they were not necessarily able to take Nagi Nagi no Mu into the hands.

“Teach, this is the decision made by the old man, we do not need….”

Marco had not finished, Blackbeard from the small boat leapt down into the seawater.

“Teach!”

Although Marco, who has the Devil Fruit in his body, was eager to fish Blackbeard up, he had to stop when he landed on the surface.

Now the no-Devil-Fruit-Blackbeard was thinking of a wonderful way to leave; seawater could isolate the vast majority of the members of the Whitebeard Pirates. —Whether it was Whitebeard, or Marco, Jozu and others, were Devil Fruit ability. They were unable to go down to the sea to catch Blackbeard Teach.

If replaced by the previous Roger Pirates or the current Redhead Pirates, Blackbeard would not dare to do so. After all, the people on that in the seawater combat power was not to be underestimated.

Watching the Blackbeard Teach left, Marco could only sigh, flew back to the flagship of the Whitebeard Pirates.

………

“Old Dad….”

Marco just wanted to explain, Whitebeard waved his hand and said, “I have seen, no need to say.”

For Teach insisted on leaving. Although the Whitebeard was very sad, Blackbeard did not commit the only crime of the Whitebeard Pirates—that’s killing his companions. So even if Blackbeard insisted on leaving, Whitebeard didn’t intend to go to chase him back.

“I would like to see, how he went to deal with the pirate group of this Wexford.” Whitebeard put the bowl of wine in his hand on the deck, stood up and walked in the direction of the cabin.

After Whitebeard walked back to the cabin, Jozu took a look at the cabin door that had been closed before saying to Marco, “Marco, what to do?”

The Whitebeard Pirates, in addition to the captain Whitebeard Newgate, Marco was the second in line to the person in charge. So after this incident, Jozu first thought to ask Marco.

“Dad said so, what else can be done?” Marco had turned back into a person to look in the direction of Blackbeard Teach disappeared and said.

“This Teach, he does not know what to think. He actually left like this. Even if he wants to deal with that Wexford Pirates, he should also discuss with his old man.” Jozu sat on the deck and said to himself.

The rest of the people did not say much, but their thoughts were mostly similar to Jozu’s thoughts. They were also unable to understand why Blackbeard left so abruptly.

“If only Oden was still there.”

There was a silence, and no one knew who mentioned the passing Whitebeard Pirates Second Division Commander.

After hearing Oden’s name, the crowd recalled the powerful swordsman from Wano Country. If this Teach’s captain was still around, he might really be able to hold him down.

Of course, this was all the thoughts of the members of the Whitebeard Pirates themselves. They simply didn’t know that Blackbeard Teach had an obsession with the Nagi Nagi no Mi. After decades of hibernation, he still wanted this Devil Fruit.

When Rosinante used the Nagi Nagi no Mi ability, Blackbeard’s silent heart for many years was immediately ignited.

For some people, the longer they laid dormant, the more violent the desire to burst out. Unfortunately, Blackbeard was exactly this type of person.

At this time, although Blackbeard very much wanted to get Nagi Nagi no Mi, he also knew that his strength was not enough to defeat Wexford’s group. Therefore, the destination of Blackbeard’s trip wasn’t the Fishman Island, which connected the front and back sections of the Grand Line, nor those islands at the forefront of the New World, but the Hundred Beasts Pirates, one of the Four Kings team in the New World.

……..

“Kaido, I hope you won’t let me down.”

Blackbeard Teach, who returned to the surface of the sea, looked back at the distant flagship of the Whitebeard Pirates’ Moby Dick.’ Since the Whitebeard Pirates could not help him, Teach could only hope that the other emperors of the New World would.

Among the other Three Emperors, the Redhead Pirates were the first that Blackbeard removed. But, unfortunately, he and Redhead Shanks had a long-standing feud, and the two would never start cooperation.

Then the only ones left were Kaido and Big Mom. In Blackbeard’s view, it was possible that one of the Four Emperors could not defeat Wanxiu completely. But if one could not, then strive for two!

Kaido and Big Mom had stayed in the Rocks Pirates; the two of them was a possibility of cooperation.

“NAGI NAGI NO MI!”

After Teach withdrew his gaze towards the ‘Moby Dick’, Rosinante’s figure filled his mind once again.
