Once Navy Headquarters hunts down the Contaminated Lord and their strength increases, the Four Emperors will become their targets.
The reverse is also true.
It's impossible for Whitebeard to coexist peacefully with Navy Headquarters after acquiring a large number of reward points and military might.
There's no need to mention the World Government; once it gains power, it will probably think of enslaving the world.
Therefore,
The Red Hair Pirates decided to join the battlefield, intending to seize the reward points and rule-based items after the Contaminated Lord's death and keep them safe.
"Ultimately, you also want to seize the Lord Monster, Red-Haired Shanks!"
Sengoku's face was grim; things had indeed developed to the worst possible scenario.
If Navy Headquarters couldn't obtain the first family token, it would be very passive when facing the World Government.
There were many Marines and cadres loyal to the World Government.
The Navy was not a monolithic entity either.
Moreover, if the World Government were to get the family token first, the vast Navy would instantly be fractured.
Sengoku could not stand by and watch that happen.
"If you say it that way, then it's not wrong."
Shanks had always been very frank, directly admitting it.
This was his personality; despite having the power of a Four Emperors, he merely indulged in spontaneous adventures and travels, never touching or ruling islands or expanding his influence.
There were no schemes or tricks; what he thought in his heart, he would say, and then the next second he would set sail.
When he thought of the Reincarnation Game causing strife across the Four Seas, he wanted to resolve this big trouble.
When he saw that the trouble couldn't be resolved, he thought of firmly grasping the root of the trouble in his own hands, indirectly solving it.
It was that simple.
"Then prepare to face the Navy's wrath, Red-Haired Shanks."
Sengoku's words thoroughly declared the impending war.
Shanks was a unique pirate.
Sengoku had known this for a long time; after Roger, who was executed by the Navy, this young man was the most like Roger, the man closest to the Pirate King on this vast sea.
If it were anyone else,
Even if Whitebeard said he wasn't coveting the Reincarnation Game's items, Sengoku wouldn't believe him.
But when it came to Red-Haired Shanks, he believed him.
However,
Belief aside, to maintain the stability of Navy Headquarters and prevent the Four Seas' forces from falling apart, the family token was an item Sengoku absolutely had to obtain.
"Garp, get back to the warship immediately!"
Sengoku's roaring voice rang out.
"Don't be so anxious, Sengoku, I haven't finished my senbei yet..."
Before Garp could finish his sentence, he heard a crunching sound from the Transponder Snail.
It was the sound of crispy senbei being spilled on the ground, then crushed underfoot.
"You old geezer, stop it right now!"
Garp cursed the Fleet Admiral, then quickly got up and left the Red Force.
What a despicable strategist, actually grasping my weakness.
All these years of friendship are going to be like the senbei... shattered.
On the deck of the Red Force,
Only Whitebeard remained, along with his accompanying First Division Commander, Phoenix Marco; every time he saw Whitebeard drinking, his heart jumped into his throat.
But he also knew this was a meeting between two Emperors, and he had no right to speak up and stop him.
"Damn it, is Old Man just trying to drink two more bowls of sake while meeting with Red Hair?"
Marco glared at his Old Man, very displeased.
Whitebeard's illnesses absolutely forbade him from drinking; even medicinal alcohol had to be strictly controlled in quantity.
"The Whitebeard Pirates will not hand over the Contaminated Lord to anyone, kid!"
"More than that, I actually have one more thing, about Ace and Blackbeard Teach..."
"The Whitebeard Pirates are not for outsiders to meddle with; Teach committed an unforgivable grave sin, and he must pay the price!"
After tossing aside his sake bowl, Whitebeard also left the Red Force.
Upon returning to the Moby Dick, he toyed with the contract fruit in his hand; the contents of these Contract Missions were simply not worth mentioning for the strongest man in the world.
[Contract Mission (5/5)]
Mission Content: Hand over a low-grade gold mine on Foodevitian Island.
Mission Reward: Gene Therapy Potion * 1
"Therapy Potion?"
Whitebeard shook his head.
During his journey to the East Blue, he had encountered players who found contract fruit, and Marco curiously asked for two recovery potions.
Although they could alleviate injuries, the effects were not as good as imagined.
His own injuries,
They weren't caused by ordinary swords, spears, or halberds; they were more like a continuous bleeding negative buff, where even if his HP was fully restored, it would still slowly drop.
Although the Gene Therapy Potion from the mission reward had a different name, it probably wouldn't be able to do anything about his injuries either.
A gold mine on Foodevitian Island disappeared.
Clang.
A dark green, round glass bottle fell onto the deck.
Whitebeard picked up the Gene Therapy Potion, which he had exchanged for an entire gold mine, and directly poured it into his mouth.
"How is it, Old Man?"
Marco reached out and took the glass bottle, sniffing it; there was no special scent.
He was a little disappointed.
The previous two therapy potions couldn't cure his Old Man's ailments, but their effects were indeed better than the therapy potions concocted by doctors in the Pirate World.
There was no need for long-term IV drips; just one bottle of [Life Recovery Potion] could make his Old Man lively for two days.
He was the Whitebeard Pirates' ship doctor.
He wanted to research the ingredients of the potions within the Reincarnation Game to replace the ineffective therapy potions from before.
"Feels good, no..."
Before Whitebeard could finish his sentence, he suddenly froze, even his crescent-shaped white mustache perked up.
The Gene Therapy Potion that flowed down his throat was like scorching lava, burning inside his body.
He initially thought he was poisoned,
But along with the pain of flowing lava, his five internal organs, which had been tormented by his ailments, felt as if they were being reshaped.
"Old Man!"
Marco ran over anxiously, wanting to check his Old Man's physical condition.
But he was gently pushed away by Whitebeard.
Half a minute later, Whitebeard let out a long sigh and burst into laughter, saying, "I'm fine, my body hasn't felt this light in a long time, it's truly exhilarating!"
Suddenly,
He gripped Cong Yun Cut, which was stuck nearby, and swung a strike towards the sky.
Boom.
The Haki-infused lightning seemed to tear the sky apart.
Mixed with the power of the Quake-Quake Fruit, countless mirror-shattering traces extended all the way to the clouds.
"An old geezer from the old era, not even a player, actually possesses this level of power?"
Not far from Death Island, on a small island,
Doflamingo watched the completely torn Birdcage and laughed, his eyes full of apprehension.
If it were before he became a player,
Such an attack would probably have shattered him directly?
But now, with his Puppet Master abilities and puppetry, he was already qualified to stand on the same tier as the strongest man in the world.
"Doflamingo-sama..."
In his ears were the cries of the controlled pirate players.
Hundreds of pirate players, controlled by puppet strings, had come to this small island.
But now, the Tenryūbito had long since released the puppet string control, yet no pirates were willing to leave.
Perhaps it was the threat of death, or fear of Navy capture, or perhaps the kingly qualities the Tenryūbito displayed?
"We want to join the Donquixote Family!"
Countless pirates knelt down.
Doflamingo smiled and said, "Very well, then fight to your heart's content!"
