Chapter 158 Sasshi buri da na

Chapter 158 Sasshi buri da na

New World, an Island covered in Giant Trees.

The Island seemed to have just been through a major Battle. All the Animals on the Island had hidden themselves.

"Roger, the Navy's probes have been rather frequent lately."

Rayleigh rested his Sword on his Shoulder, speaking to Roger with a hint of worry.

"It's normal, isn't it? After all, Golden Lion is acting like a madman these days. Come to think of it, Golden Lion is even more diligent than the Navy."

Roger, holding a Navy General by the collar of his Justice Coat, turned his Head to Rayleigh.

Then, he addressed the Navy in his grasp, "Could you tell me why the Navy has been acting so Abnormally recently, Navy sir?"

"Cough, cough..."

The Navy General, held by Roger and covered in Blood, coughed twice. He strained to open his Eyes, looking at Roger with disdain. To other Pirates, the powerful Roger might be an Overlord of the Sea, but to him, Pirates would always be Pirates.

"Want to know? Dream on!"

"Oh, never mind then."

With that, Roger simply released his Hand, letting the Navy Vice Admiral slump to the ground.

"Captain... Captain Roger! The Whitebeard Pirates' Moby Dick has been spotted on the other side of the Island!"

A Kid, clutching a Telescope and looking panicked, shouted loudly to Roger.

"Whitebeard, huh? Long time no see."

Hearing the News of the Whitebeard Pirates, a Smile spread across Roger's Face. He reached out and plopped his Hand on Shanks' Head, who was squatting nearby eating Navy Ration. He took off his Captain's Hat and placed it back on his own Head.

"Shanks, I'm not dead yet, and you're already thinking about being Captain?"

Without waiting for Shanks to protest, he addressed the Roger Pirates behind him.

"Whitebeard, that Old Friend, has come ashore! Let's give him a 'warm' welcome!"

"Hehe, didn't expect anyone to be more enthusiastic than us. Looks like Whitebeard Pirates has got an interesting fellow."

Watching the Figure leap down from the Moby Dick, Jabba chuckled to Rayleigh.

"That must be Kozuki Oden, the Whitebeard Pirates' Second Division Captain who's been making waves in the Grand Line. Heard he's a powerful Samurai."

Rayleigh spoke of power, a glint flashing across his Glasses. As the Roger Pirates' Second-in-command, he was determined to help Roger achieve his Dream. The opponent's King was Roger's Opponent, and his role was to Suppress the opponent's Second-in-command during Roger's Battle, preventing interference.

"Wait, Captain Kozuki Oden! These Enemies are completely different! That's the Roger Pirates! Don't be rash!"

Clearly, the People on the Whitebeard Pirates had recognized the Status of the Pirate Crew on the Island, and they shouted a panicked warning.

"Oden Two-Sword Style, Spear: Demon Mimic!"

Accompanied by Kozuki Oden's voice, the Members of the Roger Pirates at the front were instantly sent flying.

Seeing that his Attack had hit the opponent but hadn't instantly killed them like the Enemies he'd faced before, Kozuki Oden was surprised.

He knew that among his previous Opponents, very few could withstand his Attack head-on. Even many Pirates boasting Bounties of over a hundred million had fallen by his Sword.

Yet, unexpectedly, he was now facing setbacks against the Roger Pirates' Members.

"That's quite a fellow. He sent two of our Companions flying in one Face-to-face encounter. We need to stop him quickly, can't let him keep causing trouble."

Jabba, wielding Double Axes, said Seriously to Rayleigh.

"How dare he Damage my adorable Companions! Jabba, Rayleigh, don't worry, I'll protect you!"

Just as Rayleigh and Jabba were about to step forward, strange Words suddenly came from behind them. Then, a Figure dashed directly between the Two people.

"God Avoidance!!!"

From Kozuki Oden's Perspective, he had just used Two-Sword Style to deal with two underlings and was about to find the enemy Boss when a weird Person suddenly rushed out from the enemy ranks. Without a word, he swung a Sailor Knife at him, and before he could React, he was already flying.

"Looking good, Roger."

Wearing his Captain's Hat, with drooping golden Hair, and that distinctive white Beard curving upwards like twin crescents, Whitebeard held his Naginata and looked down at Roger with a commanding presence.

"Long time no see, Newgate."

Then, in unison, the Two people said, "Hand over everything valuable you've got!"

Realizing what they'd said, both of them broke into Smiles.

"Gurarararara~"

"Wahahahaha~"

Naturally, it was time for Greetings.

Four days later, during the Banquet hosted by Roger and the Whitebeard Pirates, an uninvited guest landed on the Island.

"Jozu, are those two Interns?"

Marco, sitting on a Stone and not joining the Exchange Meeting, looked curiously at Shanks and Buggy, who were standing in the Distant, looking wary.

"Yeah, those two have been on Roger's Ship for a while now. Don't seem that strong, but they look pretty arrogant."

Looking at Buggy, who seemed to be saying "I'm the greatest," and the serious-faced Shanks, Jozu couldn't help but comment.

Marco agreed with Jozu's assessment. After all, it wasn't easy to make the usually honest Jozu think someone was arrogant.

"Hey, Shanks, see that guy wearing a Hat over there?"

"Yeah, what about him?"

"During the ceasefire last night, and the night before, and the night before that, he didn't seem to sleep at all."

"Yeah, why?"

"They say he hasn't slept once since he was born."

"Eh? Really? That's great! Doesn't that mean he gets twice as much fun as everyone else?"

Hearing his Companion's strange focus, Buggy was instantly annoyed. He couldn't believe his Companion was so unreliable.

"Idiot! That means that guy's a Monster! A Monster, you get it?!"

"Oh."

Just as Buggy was about to say something else, he suddenly noticed Rayleigh, Jabba, and the others all stand up, Gazes fixed warily on the Coast. Many of the Whitebeard Pirates also stopped talking and looked towards the Coast.

Seeing this sudden Scene, Buggy was taken aback.

"Uh, what's going on with everyone..."

The cheerful Atmosphere had suddenly turned silent. Buggy couldn't help but ask, but before he could finish, Shanks beside him gripped his Shoulder with a Nervousness expression and said, "He's here."

"He's here? Who's here?"

Following Buggy's Words, a Figure slowly emerged from the Coast, carrying a Giant Gourd on his Shoulder.

"Yo, everyone's here to welcome me? You're too kind."

Looking at the People from the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates, Nicholas flashed a bright Smile.

"Nicholas, what do you want here?"

Bista spoke first. With such a Danger Person, no amount of vigilance was excessive.

"Huh? Would you believe me if I said I came to Reminisce with Roger?"

Then, Nicholas raised his Hand and waved behind the crowd.

"Sasshi buri da na, Roger and Whitebeard."

"Gurarararara, Lightning Brat."

"Wahahahaha, it's quite lively today."

In the Island Center, the three of them sat cross-legged. Nicholas was finally able to use a Wine Bowl as big as a washbasin in front of the Two people.
