Whitebeard nodded and said, Let all the brothers get ready. If we really go to war, then don't have any reservations and fight with all your might.
My Whitebeard Pirates have never lost any battle, let alone to that brat Kaido.
In Whitebeard's eyes, Kaido was just a brat. He wasn't afraid of Roger and Shiki, so how could he be afraid of Kaido, a rising star?
Moreover, he, Whitebeard, had been roaming freely the sea for so many years without ever being defeated.
He had long cultivated a spirit and domineering aura of being invincible and invincible.
Even if the Beasts Pirates were several times stronger than they were now, he wouldn't have any hesitation.
Marco laughed loudly and said, Okay, don't worry, Dad.
We will let them know how powerful our Whitebeard Pirates are, and also let everyone in the world see who is the number one pirate group in the New World.
The Beasts Pirates had been too rampant these past two years. The people of the Whitebeard Pirates naturally wouldn't accept it.
In their view, Roger and Shiki were already gone. No one on the sea was qualified to be Whitebeard's opponent.
Their Whitebeard Pirates were the undisputed strongest pirate group.
It was just that Whitebeard's order had made them lie low for two years.
Now that they had finally come out of the mountains again, everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates wanted to show the world their strongest power and let the world see the strength of the Whitebeard Pirates.
"Clang clang clang clang!"
Akira Stone and Vista's swords were constantly colliding with each other.
Compared to before, Akira Stone was already able to counterattack in his exchanges with Vista, instead of just passively defending.
However, it was only an occasional counterattack. In most cases, Akira Stone was still being suppressed by Vista.
Vista was a great swordsman who could later fight with Hawkeye for a long time without being defeated.
He was currently in his prime, and his strength and swordsmanship were both very amazing; while Akira Stone's swordsmanship was still very weak. He basically relied on the power of the Zanpakutō.
In terms of basic swordsmanship, he was more than one level worse than Vista.
"Akira Stone, you've been a bit lax these past two years."
Because Akira Stone had been taught by Vista from the beginning, he was very clear about Akira Stone's talent.
He hadn't fought Akira Stone again in these past two years, but now that they were fighting, he immediately discovered Akira Stone's problem.
"Clang!"
Akira Stone parried Vista's two swords, and said, "I've been a bit lax, but I won't be in the future."
Vista suddenly swung his two swords, and his speed increased a lot.
After a few moves, the back of his sword suddenly struck Akira Stone's back of his hand, and he said in a deep voice, "It's not enough to just say it."
"Hmm?" Vista said with a light "hmm". He knew his own strength.
He had originally thought that one strike would be able to knock Akira Stone's sword away, but he hadn't expected that he wouldn't succeed.
Akira Stone grinned and said, "I already said that I will never let anyone knock my weapon away in battle again."
"Hehe, that's what a swordsman should say."
Vista said, "If a swordsman can't even hold his own sword, then what's there to talk about the path of swordsmanship?"
Vista stopped standing on the side. He had already tested Akira Stone's strength. He had indeed improved compared to two years ago.
There had been great progress in various aspects such as physical strength, endurance, arm strength, nerve reaction, and so on.
The only thing that he felt hadn't improved much was in terms of swordsmanship. There had been progress compared to two years ago, but it was very limited.
Vista said to Akira Stone, Akira Stone, you have to be prepared. We're very likely to start a war with the Beasts Pirates.
At that time, everyone in our pirate group will inevitably participate in the battle, and you're no exception.
Akira Stone nodded and said, "I know."
Shaking his head, Vista said in a deep voice, You don't know. I know you've fought with the Navy before, but fighting with pirates and fighting with the Navy are completely different in nature.
The Navy sometimes will tell you the rules, but there are no rules in the pirate world at all. The fighting between pirates is bloody and cruel.
No one will have the slightest sympathy. There's only victory and defeat, life and death!
"Akira Stone, you haven't participated in a real battle between pirates, so you don't understand."
Seeing Vista say it so solemnly, Akira Stone's expression also became serious. He knew that Vista wouldn't be alarmist.
Since he said it so solemnly, then it must be like that, and even more cruel than what he said.
"I understand, Vista. At that time, I definitely won't hold everyone back!"
Vista smiled and said, "What do you mean by holding everyone back? I just hope that you'll be careful and not get hurt."
Akira Stone said, "I'm not the kind of person who has no strength to truss a chicken."
...
A few days passed quickly. The place where Whitebeard and Kaido had agreed to meet was somehow leaked out, so it directly led to countless pirates gathering around Water 7.
Some pirates came as pirate groups, and some came alone. In short, the number of people was already very shocking.
All the pirates who came here knew that the Whitebeard Pirates were stationed in Water 7, and the place where Whitebeard and Kaido had agreed to meet was also in the sea area around Water 7, so if they really went to war, it would inevitably be here.
The area around Water 7 had the possibility of becoming the center of the war, so those pirates didn't dare to get too close, and only dared to stay in the distance.
The movements around them naturally couldn't be hidden from the Whitebeard Pirates either.
However, Whitebeard ordered everyone not to pay attention, so everyone didn't care about them, anyway, these people didn't pose a threat to them.
Under the eyes of everyone, the Beasts Pirates finally appeared. They stopped not too far away from Water 7.
"Kaido-sama, we're almost at Water 7."
On the Beasts Pirates' pirate ship, Kaido's subordinate pointed in the direction of Water 7, and reported to Kaido.
Kaido asked, "Where's that Whitebeard geezer?"
The pirate in front of him replied, "Whitebeard is in Water 7ahead. The people of the Whitebeard Pirates should all be there as well. Kaido-sama, should we attack directly, or?"
Kaido asked, "What's the situation there?"
"Kaido-sama, it seems that besides the Whitebeard Pirates, there are also a lot of pirates gathered around Water 7."
Kaido raised an eyebrow and said, "Are they people from the Whitebeard Pirates?"
His subordinate pirate reported, "They shouldn't be people from the Whitebeard Pirates. It seems that they're pirates who were attracted by us and Whitebeard."
"Not people from the Whitebeard Pirates?"
Kaido's expression turned fierce, and he said coldly, "Since they're not people from the Whitebeard Pirates, then let them get the hell away from here.
With just them, they're not qualified to witness the battle between me and Whitebeard."
"But, Kaido-sama..." Kaido suddenly slapped him away, and roared, "Let them all get the hell out of here for me!"
"Yes, Kaido-sama."
Those pirates who were around Water 7, preparing to watch the war between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Beasts Pirates, were all excited when they saw that the Beasts Pirates had finally arrived.
The Whitebeard Pirates were here, and now the other protagonist had also arrived, so the long-awaited war would definitely happen.
However, they had never expected that the dozen or so pirate ships under the Beasts Pirates would actually head towards the direction where they were, and directly open fire on them without any explanation.
"What do the Beasts Pirates want to do? They're not going to fight the Whitebeard Pirates, why are they attacking us?"
Although they were puzzled in their hearts, they didn't dare to be enemies with the Beasts Pirates, and could only dodge the Beasts Pirates' attacks.
They were quickly driven very far away by the people of the Beasts Pirates. When they retreated to that distance, they discovered that the Beasts Pirates no longer attacked them, but also didn't allow them to move forward.
