After a while,
Whitebeard's figure reappeared on the deck of the Moby Dick.
The crew members nervously gathered around him.
"Pops, did you buy any medicine from the Game House to cure your injuries?"
"It doesn't matter how much it costs!"
"That's right, the most important thing is that Pops can be cured!"
The crew members chattered all at once.
The ship's doctor, Marco, took out medical equipment and began a full body examination of Whitebeard, even summoning his Phoenix Flames, not letting go of any possibility of injury.
"No injuries detected, the Game Merchant's methods are truly astonishing!"
After the examination,
Marco's face was full of shock; old injuries that even the Phoenix Flames couldn't heal had completely recovered in just a few hours.
Furthermore, his various bodily functions had stopped aging and had even returned to their peak.
"As expected of Pops!"
"I knew coming to the East Blue to find the Game Merchant was the right choice; that mysterious fellow really can cure Pops."
"Let's have a banquet!"
It was an old tradition of the Whitebeard Pirates to hold a banquet whenever something happy happened.
Previously, Pops was seriously ill and couldn't drink, but now that he was cured, they had to get him thoroughly drunk.
"Cough, cough…"
Whitebeard, who usually spoke his mind, now lacked his usual Heroic and said with some guilt, "The Contaminated Lord is about to appear. It's not too late to have a banquet after we kill the Contaminated Lord and get the family token."
The crew members realized that,
the announcement just released by the Game Merchant stated that the Contaminated Lord could drop a family token, which was the main goal of the Whitebeard Pirates coming to the East Blue.
"Still Pops, so thoughtful!"
The crew members nodded in agreement, deciding to celebrate together after getting the family token.
Only Marco, who stood close to Whitebeard, noticed something amiss.
He quietly pulled Whitebeard to the back of the deck and asked, "Pops, can you tell me the truth now?"
"There were too many people outside just now…"
Whitebeard's burly body sat on the ground, and looking at his most sensible son, he said awkwardly, "Pops accidentally spent all the money, there's not even enough left for a banquet."
"All spent?"
Marco was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "It's okay, the assets on the Moby Dick can only be exchanged for 50,000 reward points. We can just retrieve more after returning to the New World."
These funds could easily be replenished by finding any island where the Whitebeard Pirates were stationed.
Whitebeard didn't speak.
Marco had a bad feeling and asked, "Pops, you didn't sell all the assets on the islands, did you?"
Whitebeard shook his head.
Marco breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. If it's just selling assets on a few islands, it can be made up for in a while."
"All sold, even the islands were sold."
Immediately after, a sentence drilled into his ear.
Marco's pupils constricted in shock, and he looked at Pops in disbelief, repeating, "All assets sold, even the islands?"
"That's right."
Whitebeard, who had fought for countless years in this ocean and had a resilient mindset, was too guilty to look at his own son.
Although,
according to pirate crew theory, the captain has the right to dispose of all assets.
But the Whitebeard Pirates were different from ordinary pirates, and even for a Four Emperors like Whitebeard to use up all his assets was quite embarrassing.
"It's all the random key's fault!"
Whitebeard was extremely annoyed.
At first, he just wanted to collect the Scarlet Troll's talent skills, but the more he refreshed, the better the items that appeared.
Even after buying several of the Scarlet Troll's talent skills, he couldn't help but continue refreshing.
Before he knew it, he had spent all his reward points.
Only when the prompt for insufficient reward points appeared did he realize what he had done.
"Pops, you're really like a child…"
After the shock, Marco helplessly covered his forehead and said, "Just consider it the price for curing your injuries. It's worth throwing away all assets if Pops can recover."
His Mindset was very good.
At most, they would start from scratch. With Whitebeard at the helm, the Four Emperors crew would quickly regain its glory.
"Gurarararara…"
Whitebeard adjusted his mindset and laughed loudly, "Don't underestimate the items Pops bought. Although they did consume all assets, they are the Whitebeard Pirates' guarantee!"
"Okay…"
Marco clearly didn't believe him, but he still obediently humored Pops.
As the two were talking,
the calm, waveless ocean suddenly rippled with faint undulations.
It was like a gentle breeze passing by.
But it sent a jolt through all the players, causing them to assume a battle stance.
A dense aura of death leaked from the already sealed Death Island.
This meant that,
the blockade of Death Island was about to open.
"The Contaminated Lord's drops are a must-have for the Whitebeard Pirates, Marco, prepare for battle!"
The Moby Dick hoisted its sails and moved towards Death Island.
At the same time,
the forces temporarily stationed on nearby islands also hoisted their sails and sped towards the game battlefield.
On the Red Force, Red-Haired Shanks stood on the deck, drawing griffin from his waist.
Haki coiled around it,
and black and red lightning surged, directly blasting away the Navy warships that tried to surround them.
Their speed was even subtly faster than the Moby Dick.
"Don't let that Red Hair brat get ahead!"
Whitebeard also stood on the deck, swinging Cong Yun Cut. The power of the Quake-Quake Fruit was unleashed, causing the entire ocean to surge.
"Ice Age!"
A low murmur sounded.
An extremely cold aura instantly spread, freezing the rolling waves and forming countless ice walls and landmasses.
This prevented the warships from being sunk by the waves.
Aokiji blocked the Moby Dick's path, intercepting the Whitebeard Pirates.
Whitebeard narrowed his eyes, staring at the figure emitting a strong chill, and said, "Aokiji, instead of blocking Red-Haired Shanks, you've come to stop me?"
"According to Navy Headquarters' research, the consequences of the Whitebeard Pirates hunting the Contaminated Lord are too severe; it must be stopped!"
Aokiji's eyes were sharp, devoid of his usual lazy demeanor.
After all, the person in front of him was once the strongest man in the world; a slight misstep could lead to his death.
Whitebeard agreed with this statement, nodding and saying, "Is that so? That old man Sengoku truly thinks highly of me!"
If Red-Haired Shanks had gotten the Contaminated Lord, there might have been a chance for negotiation with Navy Headquarters.
But he, Whitebeard, would never do such useless things.
Boom.
Whitebeard leaped onto the ship's bow.
A vibrating arc of the Quake-Quake Fruit's power condensed on the blade of Cong Yun Cut, striking the frozen ocean.
In an instant,
the absolute freezing that could last for weeks was torn apart inch by inch by the Quake-Quake Fruit, and the seawater from below surged out through the cracks.
Aokiji's expression changed slightly, and he continued to release cold air, resisting the power of the Quake-Quake Fruit and freezing the ocean again.
"Not good!"
Seeing that he was about to collapse,
Kizaru, transformed into golden light, hovered in the sky, his arms crossed and gathered at his shoulders, his fingers forming the shape of a circular mirror.
"Yasakani Sacred Jewel!"
Countless dazzling golden lights, like bullets rolling out of a gun barrel, rained down densely on the Moby Dick.
"Hmph!"
Akainu's face was cold, filled with confidence and killing intent, as he said, "In the past, you hid in the New World, and Navy Headquarters didn't have extra forces to subjugate you. I didn't expect you to walk into a trap now. Then I'll kill you in the East Blue."
