In the New World, in the Sea of Celant, the huge Moby Dick floats quietly on the sea.
The Conqueror slowly sailed towards us from a distance.
"Dad! Rocks requests a meeting with us!"
The lookout on the Moby Dick saw the flashing lights on the Conqueror and quickly spoke to Whitebeard below.
"Gulala, boys, all be prepared to face Rocks!"
Whitebeard laughed heartily and warned his sons.
"Those who are not mentally prepared should stay away, they can't handle it!"
Marco spoke up to remind those guys who didn't understand what was going on.
"Can't bear it? Captain Marco, what do you mean by can't bear it?"
"Stop talking nonsense, hey, back off quickly, stay away!"
"Buzz!"
Just as Marco was about to explain something, the two ships had already come together, and Rocks, dragging a huge wine gourd, stepped onto the spiral staircase of the Moby Dick.
The moment he stepped on it, an invisible aura of dominance spread out.
“Snap, snap!”
Every time Rocks took a step, many confused pirates would foam at the mouth and lie down on the deck with white eyes.
Seeing their companions suddenly fainting on the ground, the others suddenly panicked.
"Hey! What's wrong with you guys?"
"Ship's doctor! Come quickly, these guys suddenly fainted! What happened?!"
Marco couldn't help but scold his panicked companions.
"I've already told you, those who are not mentally prepared, stay away. Young people can't handle it!"
Joz, who was standing behind him, looked at Rocks who was getting closer and closer with a serious expression, and couldn't help but say something in admiration.
"You're getting stronger and stronger, Rocks."
"Those who are not mentally prepared are not even qualified to stand in front of him. This is the man known as the Pirate Emperor."
“Trample, trample!”
Finally, Rocks stepped onto the deck of the Moby Dick.
"Buzz!"
The terrifying domineering aura spread out, instantly cracking the sides of the Moby Dick.
All the pirates on the Moby Dick couldn't help swallowing.
"Hey, Rocks, you just boarded the ship and you damaged our side. This is really rude."
Marco crossed his arms and spoke to Rocks with a grim look on his face.
Rocks looked at Marco and a smile appeared on his face.
"Hey, isn't this Marco, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' First Division, the Phoenix? How about joining my pirate group?"
"Stop joking, Rocks!"
Marco was unhappy and directly rejected Rocks' invitation.
"Haha, that's a pity. I really admire you."
Rocks said this with a smile and ignored Marco. He dragged his wine gourd towards Whitebeard who was sitting on the throne not far away.
Soon, Rocks came in front of Whitebeard and looked at the tall man with long golden wavy hair.
"Haha, Whitebeard, it's been a long time."
As he said that, Rocks opened the wine gourd directly, took a huge bowl and filled it up for himself, then threw the huge wine gourd to Whitebeard.
White Beard took the wine gourd and smelled the wine.
"Gulala, this is really a good wine. Rocks brat, it's been a long time since we last met. After not seeing you for a few years, the little brat has become a great pirate who dominates the world."
Whitebeard said with emotion, kicking the huge wine gourd and drinking from it in big gulps.
"Haha, that's true. However, if I hadn't had your help in the Battle of the Seven Water Cities, I might have died in that battle."
Rocks thought of the battle and a gentle smile appeared on his face.
"Gulala, so, Rocks kid, is this how you plan to repay the person who saved you?"
Throwing away the empty wine gourd, Whitebeard looked at Rocks with a serious expression and a big laugh.
Rocks slowly picked up the wine bowl and drank it in big gulps.
In a short while, the wine in the huge bowl was drunk.
Rocks wiped the corner of his mouth casually and looked up at Whitebeard.
"Newgate, it is because I still owe you a favor that I came here in person to meet you this time."
The smile on Rocks' face faded as he slowly put away his sword and his expression turned serious.
"Whitebeard, your dream is just to have adventures on the sea with your family. It has no conflict with my goal."
"So, I hope you can take your sons and leave the New World temporarily. You know, my goal is this world, and if I want to conquer this world, it is necessary to conquer the entire New World."
"Gulala, little devil, conquering this world is not so easy."
"I once knew two men who were as ambitious as you and wanted to rule the world. One was the Golden Lion who was killed by you, and the other was my former captain, a man with the same name as you, but he also fell into the hands of Garp and Roger in the end."
"Do you think you will succeed?"
Faced with Whitebeard's questioning, Rocks' expression remained unchanged.
"Shiki the Golden Lion is just a reckless pirate who has all the strength but no plan, and that Rocks, although he has some extremely powerful fighting power and influence, is too hasty."
"Besides, he has partners like you who are unwilling to be inferior to others and have their own goals. Failure is inevitable."
"However, I am different from them. I have a strong partner who fully supports me and a perfect plan, so I will definitely succeed."
Whitebeard kept looking at Rocks and did not comment on what he said.
"Gulala, alright, Rocks, I agree with what you said. However, it's not so easy for me to quit the new world just like that!"
The wind is blowing
As Whitebeard finished his words, huge waves surged on the originally calm sea, and the clear sky was covered by thick dark clouds.
"Heh, as expected, it's not that easy to get you to quit the new world. So let's use our strength to speak."
Rocks slowly drew out the sword from his waist, and the snow-white blade with a hint of scarlet light was slowly pulled out of the scabbard.
As the sword continued to be unsheathed, Rocks' momentum continued to rise.
“Gulala, little brat, let me see if you’re strong enough to challenge the World Government in a few years!”
Whitebeard pulled out the big sword at his side, the supreme sword, and slashed it towards Rocks with Kusukume-Kiri.
"Heh, then take a good look at me, Whitebeard. I am not the same brat I was a few years ago!"
"boom!"
The long sword and the long knife collided in the air, the pitch-black lightning surged wildly, and the invisible air waves scattered violently.
The thick black clouds in the sky seemed to be cut in half.
