Bab 62: 62 Envious Crocodile
"It seems like your brother was too scared."
Marco leaned on the railing and couldn't help but laugh at Luffy's tragic situation.
"It's father after all!"
Ace grinned and casually waved his hand, saying: "Also, it would be good for Luffy to see how strong people in the New World really are."
He understood his brother reckless nature all too well.
His actions were driven purely by emotion, without any regard for the consequences.
In the first half of the Grand Line, it might not have much impact.
But things change when they enter the New World.
Only one in a million pirates can survive in the New World, and they are like monsters in their strength.
Let's take Conqueror's Haki as an example.
In the first half of the Grand Line, it's extremely rare to find someone with a Conqueror's Haki, maybe one in a million.
But what about the second half?
Conqueror's Haki is more common.
Entering the New World with Luffy reckless character.
With insufficient strength and a lack of knowledge about the dangers of the New World, Luffy is bound to cause a catastrophe.
Facing the strong individuals of the New World in advance is only beneficial for Luffy, without any harm.
"Guurarara~"
"Do you understand the role of Haki now, Straw Hat boy?"
Whitebeard laughed as he looked at Luffy's embarrassed expression.
"Umm~"
Luffy nodded eagerly, resembling a bobbing chicken.
"Next, we'll begin your training in Observation Haki,"
Whitebeard stated.
"Yes!"
Luffy's fist shot up in the air as he responded with a resounding voice, brimming with determination.
"Father, please train me as well!"
At that moment, Marco, who had been leaning on the railing, swiftly jumped down and joined Whitebeard side.
During the Marineford War, he became aware of his own weaknesses.
When he was trying to escape with Ace, he felt frustrated that he couldn't assist Whitebeard.
Since then, he has made up his mind.
He must get stronger!
Strong enough to shoulder all the burdens for the old man!
Now that he sees them training, he can't hold back anymore and wants to join them to become stronger.
"Hey~"
"Marco, you are too cunning."
Ace shouted and jumped off the boat: "Father, train me too!"
In fact, he feels the same way as Marco.
He feels very weak!
If he isn't too weak, he won't get caught, and he won't cause the Summit War of Marineford or put his father at risk.
"Guurarara~"
"Then Let's call all the commanders and fleet captains!"
Whitebeard laughed.
"Is the old man going to give everyone training instructions?"
"Having the strongest man in the world as our guide is a truly rare opportunity."
"Haha, let's all disembark quickly so we don't keep the old man waiting!"
The fleet captains were thrilled.
"Training?"
Crocodile glanced at Whitebeard, his eyes filled with envy.
It's rare to have the opportunity to learn from the strongest man in the world.
If he can, he should also ask for training.
It's a pity.
Since he didn't join the Whitebeard Pirates, he couldn't help but feel envious without any way to hide it.
Meanwhile, he was deep in thought.
If he had nowhere else to go, why didn't he just join in?
After all, once he stayed for a while, he realized that life on the Moby Dick was quite comfortable.
While Crocodile was contemplating whether to address Whitebeard as "Father"...
Luffy and the fleet captains started their training with Whitebeard's guidance.
They train their Haki.
If they were already familiar with Haki, they would focus on honing their combat and fighting abilities.
In any case, Whitebeard is strong enough to be their teacher.
During their relaxed training sessions, two days flew by.
In those two days, Rayleigh finished the coating process, and the Whitebeard Pirates could finally set sail for the New World.
"Goodbye for now. I'm not sure when we'll have the chance to meet again."
Rayleigh was a little emotional.
One by one, the people of the old era passed away.
At present, there were only two or three people who could be called friends.
The New World is dangerous, and Whitebeard is considered the number one enemy by the World Government. Returning to the New World this time would surely bring about numerous challenges and troubles.
So this meeting might be the last time the two of them would meet.
"Guurarara~"
"Rayleigh, are you interested in continuing to sail the seas?"
Whitebeard raised his jar, took a strong sip, and gazed at his old friend beside him.
"Forget it.
My old bones can't handle all that adventure,"
Rayleigh waved his hand, a hint of sadness flickering in his eyes: "And my journey has already ended"
"Hmm, okay"
Whitebeard listened and didn't insist on it.
He understood that Rayleigh was different from the Byrnndi World and others.
Byrnndi World had ambitions to overthrow the World Government and the Marines, while Patrick Redfield sought the Bat-Bat Fruit to fulfill his own dream.
But Rayleigh had truly given up on the idea of continuing his travels.
In other words, the day the Roger Pirates disbanded marked the end of Rayleigh's journey.
Naturally, he wouldn't pressure his old friend into making a decision.
Finally,
Under Rayleigh's watchful eye, the Whitebeard Pirates Fleet departed from Sabaody Archipelago.
This time their purpose is the only one - Fishman island!
They prepared to make their way back to the New World through the Fishman Island.
but
The ship was only halfway there.
Marco, who got a call from Jinbei, grabbed the Den-Den Mushi and hurried over.
"Father, Jinbei has sent a message. Big Mom has dispatched one of her three Sweet Commanders, Charlotte Katakuri, to take control of the Fishman Island!"
"Jinbei had a clash with Katakuri while trying to resist, but he was defeated. He's injured now and unable to stop it. We need to go to Fishman Island quickly to rescue him!"
Marco relayed the story once again.
"What?"
Everyone was initially shocked by the news, but quickly their anger resurfaced.
"Big Mom Pirates dared to attack the Fishman Island!"
"Doesn't she realize that Fishman Island is Father's territory? And His Majesty Neptune is also Father's friend!"
"It's unforgivable to harm Jinbei like this!"
The commanders and captains were filled with righteous anger.
"Guurarara~"
"When did Linlin have the courage to attack me?"
Whitebeard's movements paused, and he set down the jar that was almost at his mouth. His tone became extremely solemn.
"Father, should we retaliate?"
Marco couldn't help but ask.
"Full speed ahead! Let's see what that little guy from the Linlin family dares to do on the Fishman Island!"
Whitebeard waved his hand in a commanding gesture.
"Yes!"
All the captains responded quickly.
After the Summit War of Marineford, all the commanders and captains firmly believed that the Whitebeard Pirates had surpassed the other three emperors.
Now, the Big Mom Pirates dared to stir up trouble.
They were not going to let it go!
