Capítulo 124: 124. "The Strongest" In The Old Era, The "Strongest" In The New Era!
New World
On some island—
One of the CP0 agents of the World Government, one of the giants of the underground world, Stussy, known as the "Queen of the Pleasure District," sat on a chair with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
She pondered:
"'The World's Greatest Swordsman'—Rob, is looking for the 'World's Strongest Man'—Whitebeard—Edward Newgate... What will happen when two 'strongest' collide?"
"I am really curious!"
Just now she received a call from her subordinates, learning that Rob bought information on the Whitebeard Pirates. She sold all the information about the Whitebeard Pirates to Rob without hesitation.
After all—
Rob didn't know her well at all; she was just here for business. For future cooperation, Stussy didn't mind selling information about the Whitebeard Pirates to him and also gave him her contact information.
And that's how her network expanded!
As for Whitebeard?
Although she had something to do with the sample she was born with, that Bakingom Stussy, it had nothing to do with her. She was not afraid of Whitebeard's influence, so naturally, she would not hesitate to sell that information!
"Speaking of—"
Stussy's eyes flickered, she stroked her smooth chin and said:
"I still have to investigate whether the Op-Op Fruit is really in Rob's possession. If not, I can try to use this opportunity to contact Rob and confirm it."
No matter how—
Stussy intends to solidify the relationship the next time Rob calls her, and after establishing a good relationship, slowly test it out!
Information about the four people on Rob's boat is not a secret.
The strongest, Rob, is a Rumble-Rumble Fruit user, Robin is a Flower-Flower Fruit user, Uta is a Sing-Sing Fruit user, and the last, Makino, has also shown her Flame-Flame Fruit ability.
So, if the Op-Op Fruit is in Rob's hands, then this fruit may still be obtained by the World Government!
By that time—
This would be a huge achievement!
With this in mind, Stussy began to expect Rob to call her.
Night.
**In the yard of a hotel in town—**
Wearing autumn clothes and an apron, Makino was skillfully using her Flame-Flame Fruit ability to grill a huge tuna with various seasonings on it from time to time.
Since Makino awakened Armament and Observation Haki, and her strength reached Rob's expectations, Makino has greatly reduced the intensity of her practice.
Then—
Makino started doing what she loves on the boat: brewing a variety of fine wines and learning how to cook from Rob!
In this regard, Rob naturally gave it all.
Her talent in brewing and cooking is impressive. Maybe because of eating the Flame-Flame Fruit, Makino is especially good at cooking dishes that require exquisite fire control!
Even Makino can make something similar to Rob's barbecue.
This beautiful girl who is gentle and patient in nature is really a perfect wife and mother partner. To be loved by her, Rob is always satisfied and happy in his heart!
The four people in their small family—
Rob's own role has always been defined as a protective umbrella and a sharp blade to overcome obstacles, so Rob pursues strength and powerful prowess.
He is the absolute center of the team!
As for Robin, Uta, and Makino, they don't have any special roles. Any one of them can assume the duties on the ship if needed.
Whether it can be managed or not, there will always be someone who will take up the vacant part.
Soon, after all the dinners are ready, they enjoy the food.
Rob opened his mouth and said:
"The information about the Whitebeard Pirates has been obtained! This information comes from a giant in the underground world, and this giant has a background in the World Government, so there is no need to worry about the information being false!"
Hearing Rob's words, Robin and Makino, who were also tasting the food, nodded, and Uta never participated in the discussion of this kind of thing.
Pause briefly.
Rob's eyes were serious:
"I'm going to continue sailing tomorrow, heading to the sea area where the Whitebeard Pirates are now. Whitebeard and I will fight in the end—I don't want to waste any more time."
"And today I openly bought information about the Whitebeard Pirates. It won't take long for this news to spread, and our actions will also be known to the Whitebeard Pirates!"
After hearing Rob's decision, both Robin and Makino nodded with firm faces.
They said seriously:
"Can!"
Looking at their expressions, Rob had an apologetic smile on his face:
"This time I was a little self-willed! Sorry, forgive me! Robin, Makino, Uta!"
Hearing Rob's words, Robin smiled slightly:
"It's too weird! Oni-chan! No matter what you want to do, I will be with you! So whether it's a plan or self-willedness, it doesn't matter, as long as it's you, Oni-chan, it's a good decision!"
Makino nodded approvingly.
She said seriously:
"I will always support you, Mr. Rob!"
Uta, next to her, raised her hand and lisped:
"Oni-chan! Me too!"
Hearing the statements of the three, a smile appeared on Rob's face. He then said seriously:
"Then it's decided! Tomorrow morning—go and chase down the Whitebeard Pirates! That old man's title of 'World's Strongest Man' has been around long enough and it's time for a replacement!"
He wants to take the second strongest one for himself!
It's the same even if the person he's going to face next is Whitebeard!
Defeat—It is absolutely impossible for him to back down now!
In the blink of an eye, several days passed.
This day—
The New World's most powerful pirate group, the island under the jurisdiction of the Whitebeard Pirates—FOODVALTEN.
The Whitebeard Pirates, one of the three overlords of the New World, are staying on this island at the moment!
Inside the huge camp.
Now he still has a head of golden flowing hair, unlike almost nine years later, when Whitebeard was in an aging state with medicine bottles and bags hanging on his body. In this era, he is undoubtedly at the apex of power and wealth!
The closest to the throne of Pirate King, the uncrowned king of the sea!
"Dad!"
Marco, who has a pineapple-like hairstyle, was holding a newspaper in his hand as he approached Whitebeard:
"There is some very interesting news. Do you want to take a look?"
Hearing the words, Whitebeard looked at Marco with a look of helplessness on his face:
"Could it be another nameless brat who came out of nowhere and wants to challenge me again? It's really troublesome! Can't those youngsters properly measure the gap between them and me?"
After becoming the overlord of the sea, challengers' troubles also increased.
Because—
Too many people have come to challenge him.
It really annoys him. As long as he stays in a certain place for a while, challengers will always come to his door, trying to take his head, become famous in the world, and become the new sea overlord!
"Hey hey..."
Marco laughed at Whitebeard's words and said:
"A challenger indeed!"
"However, in his capacity, it would be inaccurate to say that he is just a challenger. He should be inviting you to fight! Take a look, Dad—the world will focus on this news because of the shutdown. It's on us! Hahaha..."
Hearing Marco's words, Whitebeard froze for a moment, then looked at the newspaper that Marco handed him.
He glanced at the news headlines in today's newspaper:
**[Breaking news! "The World's Greatest Swordsman"—Rob is tracking down the king of the sea—"The World's Strongest Man"—Whitebeard—Edward Newgate!]**
**[A battle between the "strongest" in the old era and the "strongest" in the new era may be coming soon!]**
[...]
**[Is it the continuation of the legend in the old era, or the strong rise of the new era!]**
[...]
After reading all the news.
Snapped—
Whitebeard put away the newspaper, a warlike smile on his face:
"So that's the case—that brat's words really can't be called a challenge, and he is indeed qualified to cut me in half! Marco, how old is this brat now?"
Hearing Whitebeard's inquiry, Marco did some calculations and casually said:
"Should be eighteen or nineteen? But definitely not twenty!"
After hearing Marco's answer, Whitebeard froze for a moment, then laughed out loud:
"Gu la la la... Hahaha..."
Rumbling
When Whitebeard laughed out loud, his Conqueror's Haki, which had reached its peak, was continuously released. At the same time, the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was also passively released, causing the entire camp to sway.
The atmosphere shifted, and even the sea next to the camp created waves.
"Hahaha..."
The sound of laughter gradually fell.
Whitebeard's eyes flashed:
"Marco, send a message for me—I'm waiting for that brat on this island. If he's brave enough, let him come!"
Hearing the words, Marco nodded with a smile on his face and said:
"Yes, Dad, don't worry! I will let the people below release the news! I think this young man will not disappoint you, Dad. Many people say he is very annoying!"
"And he also ate the Logia Thunder Fruit, so his strength will definitely not be bad!"
Hearing Marco's words, Whitebeard didn't say much, just had a smile in his eyes.
Devil Fruit?
Although the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is part of his strength, Whitebeard knows very well that in a real "peak" battle, his own Haki and combat skills are the true means of victory!

Capítulo 125: 125. Live Broadcast?
Crash
On board the Angel that has just left an island port.
Rob, who was sitting on a chair on the deck, was holding today's newspaper in his hand and was watching the news about the upcoming battle between him and Whitebeard reported by Morgans!
There's a Den Den Mushi in front of him—
It's Morgans' call!
"Mr. Rob, have you seen it?"
Inside the Den Den Mushi, Morgans' voice came:
"According to your thinking, the news this time has already been reported! But are you really going to fight that Whitebeard who is more terrifying than a monster?"
Looking at the news in the newspaper in his hand, Rob looked calm:
"Is there any problem? This matter should not affect you at all, right?"
Hearing the words, Morgans laughed and said:
"Of course it doesn't matter!"
"It's just that Mr. Rob, I have an idea - if this battle between you and Whitebeard can be broadcast live to the entire sea, it should be able to make a lot of money!"
"And it can definitely cause the sea to shake! This is definitely big news, news that shakes the world! Don't you have any interest in being the protagonist of such news that shakes the sea?"
There was a pause. Morgans spoke again:
"How about it? Are you interested in becoming a heavyweight in the world through this battle in front of the whole world, becoming the 'apex' of the sea, and becoming the leader of the new era?"
Live his fight with Whitebeard?
Rob frowned—
This proposal seems very interesting!
He never refuses the opportunity to act aggressively, nor will he give up the opportunity to act aggressively. According to what Morgans said, maybe he can really act aggressively in front of the whole world!
It doesn't make sense. Buggy, that lucky dude, was able to broadcast live at Marineford, but Rob couldn't do it when it was his turn?
This live broadcast—
Seems to work!
The corners of his mouth raised.
Rob looked at the Den Den Mushi:
"If you can do it, I don't mind if this battle is broadcasted live by you!"
Hearing the words, Morgans was instantly satisfied:
"Okay! Leave this matter to me! Don't worry, Mr. Rob, I will make you the center of the world and the leader of the new era! Hahaha... Then, let's prepare."
After hanging up the phone.
After a little anticipation in Rob's heart, he continued to read the newspaper.
He had to say—
Ever since some of his suggestions unlocked some percentage of his brain, Morgans, a birdman, had really become more and more powerful in his grasp of news and troubles!
Time flies.
Sea Circle Calendar 1512, December 25, during the last days of the decade.
On a certain piece of sea in the New World—
The Angel stopped in front of a pirate ship that was almost destroyed, and at this moment it was on the broken deck of the pirate ship.
Swish
Looking at the pirate captain in front of him, whose arm had been cut off, and whose body was like an orc, his expression was calm and composed. Rob raised Shinto in his hand, and was about to end the opponent's life.
"Wait a moment—"
The pirate captain who ate the Zoan fruit begged Rob for mercy:
"I am the subordinate of Lord Kaido, one of the three overlords of the New World. If you kill me, you will definitely anger Lord Kaido. Even if you are the 'world's number one swordsman', you will definitely die!"
"Let me go! Today's incident, I will completely ignore it, and I will not report to Lord Kaido..."
Zheng
The pirate captain hadn't finished speaking yet, when Shinto in Rob's hand brought a cold light, instantly chopping off the pirate captain's head, and decapitating him completely.
As the pirate's head rolled to the ground, his original human-beast body slowly changed back to the original headless human corpse.
Swish!
Shinto twirled like a flower, and after putting the sword back into its sheath, Rob walked leisurely towards the treasure house of this pirate ship.
As for Kaido of the Beasts coming after him?
If he doesn't come, Rob will take the initiative to find him, so why worry about his name!
Ten minutes later—
Boom!
Accompanied by Makino standing on the bow of the Angel, a huge yellow and white fire fist, this pirate ship was finally buried directly on the bottom of the sea.
Above the deck.
Rob, Robin, and Uta were counting the gains this time—treasures, supplies, these things needless to say, during the voyage, they would not lack such gains.
The most valuable harvest this time should be the one in Rob's hand at the moment, an orange Devil Fruit that looked like a persimmon with a smooth surface and a spiral pattern!
"Zoan Dog-Dog Fruit, Mythical Zoan Model: Okuchi-no-Makami!"
Rob looked at the Devil Fruit in his hand and said casually:
"It seems that the pirate captain just now wasn't lying—he really did find Kaido as his backer! If there is no accident, this Devil Fruit was his offering."
This Devil Fruit...
According to the plot that Rob still remembers, it should be Kaido's daughter, who recognizes herself as his son, Yamato, who claims to be Kozuki Oden, who will eat the Devil Fruit. According to Kaido, he got it with great effort!
But now it seems that this "great effort" is worth discussing!
And now it has been intercepted by him.
Naturally, it is impossible to return to Kaido's hands.
Although he won't eat this Devil Fruit, it can be reserved for Makino, who can also eat a second Devil Fruit, or Robin to enhance their strength!
After solving the pirate ship, Makino, who came back to the deck, looked at the Dog-Dog Fruit in Rob's hand and, after hearing his introduction, had a surprised look on her face:
"Mythical Zoan? Isn't this Devil Fruit even rarer than Logia? It's the first time I've seen it! This time we've gained a lot!"
Hearing Makino's words, both Robin and Uta nodded.
Uta said crisply:
"It's also the first time we've seen a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit! I heard that Mythical Zoans are very powerful. They can not only give the user a strong physique but also special powers!"
"If Ni-chan or Nee-chan eats this Devil Fruit, not only will they have the physique that can stand up again no matter how many times they're knocked down, but they'll also have powers similar to a Logia!"
"Isn't that both handsome and powerful?"
While speaking, Robin also nodded in approval, then looked at Rob and Makino, and asked with a smile:
"Onii-chan and Makino, who will eat this Devil Fruit?"
Playing with the Dog-Dog Fruit in his hand, Rob casually said:
"I'll pass! With my physique, eating this Devil Fruit won't have any greater effect. It can only be said that it is better than nothing! Compared with me, it's better for you or Makino to eat it!"
"But it's useless to think so much now, and it will take a year to get rid of the side effects of this Devil Fruit! So let's put it away for now and think about it later!"
"And maybe we can get other Devil Fruits this year!"
Hearing this, Robin nodded approvingly:
"Exactly!"
Makino smiled and nodded in agreement. No one cared too much about the final ownership of this Devil Fruit. They didn't pursue strength for its own sake—they would eat it if they had it, and wouldn't be too concerned if they didn't.
Quickly.
Rob found a small treasure box, packed the Dog-Dog Fruit, Mythical Zoan Model: Okuchi-no-Makami, and put all the treasures they got into the treasure vault, and let Xiaobai keep the Devil Fruit safe!
As for giving this Devil Fruit to Yamato according to the original trajectory?
That's not happening!
Why her?
With her big chest and self-proclaimed identity as Kozuki Oden?
Although Yamato is beautiful, has Kaido's blood, is known as the Princess of Oni, and has Conqueror's Haki, she is indeed very powerful, but we don't know each other at all!
Moreover, Rob didn't have a good impression of the girl who had some serious issues and had become a bewildered star chaser.
First, Rob has always put his family first. For Yamato, Kaido's daughter, who changed her stance just because she saw Kozuki Oden's execution, he really can't agree with her!
Second, for such a person who has no soul and always thinks she is Kozuki Oden, Rob also can't understand!
To say that Kaido isn't good to Yamato, so he isn't worthy to be her father, is really unfair.
Before Yamato's rebellion, she had a good life, from the way she dressed, and from being able to stand next to Kozuki Oden at such a young age, watching the execution of Kozuki Oden.
After Yamato rebelled, it was naturally impossible not to take measures.
And if Kaido were really ruthless, even with a flexible moral bottom line like Rob, Yamato wouldn't have grown to the point where she could fight against him. If that were the case, Rob would eat his own shit!
If Yamato isn't rebellious, then she is the successor that Kaido has cultivated with all his heart.
From Kaido following Yamato's self-awareness, changing the title from daughter to son, not restricting her freedom on Onigashima, and even making her the new general of Wano Country, it's clear Kaido has always had a father-daughter relationship with Yamato.
It can only be said—
Kaido is a good hand in teaching various combat skills, but when it comes to parenting, he can be called the "good parent" in the pirate parenting world, alongside Garp.
For the girl Yamato, Rob couldn't agree or understand, so naturally he didn't have much affection.
As for Yamato's beauty?
It's a bonus, but it will definitely not be the reason why Rob has a good impression of her!
There are many beautiful characters in this sea, let alone the current emperor of Amazon Lily, the captain of the Kuja Pirates, "Pirate Empress" Boa Hancock.
Rob saw her bounty...
She is really beautiful, and it can even be said to be the kind of beauty that completely hits Rob's aesthetic!
If Rob were a womanizer, Boa Hancock wouldn't just be on his boat now, but she would be crazy for him and become infatuated with him.
Isn't it just punching Celestial Dragons?
Is it hard?
Even killing a Celestial Dragon isn't out of the question!
If Rob were really a man who only thinks about his lower body, then it is impossible for him to have only two women, Robin and Makino, on his boat. He could definitely have more!
