Pirates: Building a Pirate Family.

However, they have gone through countless hardships and dangers along the way, and countless life-and-death tests have failed to defeat them, but now they are facing such a desperate situation.

Deus slowly closed his eyes, feeling a pang of pain in his heart, as if all his strength had been drained out of his body at this moment, and he collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball.

With a "thump", his knees fell heavily on the hard deck.

"Vice Captain!"

Behind me came the crew's terrified shouts.

But Deuce turned a deaf ear to it. He stared expressionlessly at the Whitebeard Pirates' crew not far ahead, his eyes revealing despair and pleading.

"Please...let Ace go!"

Before he finished speaking, Zeus was about to bow his head.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Whitebeard was seen holding the Kusukumokiri and gently knocking it against the deck beneath his feet.

In an instant, an extremely powerful air wave suddenly rose up, sweeping over like a surging ocean wave.

Deus, who originally wanted to kowtow, had no time to react and was blown away by the air wave in an instant.

Interrupt Deus's actions.

Deuce did not knock his head.

"Okay, let's end it here. We didn't mean to hurt Ace. Ace is receiving treatment now, so you don't have to worry!"

Whitebeard stood up and looked at this group of loyal and righteous newcomers and said.

Then he walked up to Deuce, stretched out his hand and helped Deuce up.

This sudden change not only shocked the crew of the Spade Pirates.

It also surprised many crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Only Marco looked as if he had known it all and was not too surprised.

"Boy, I admire your heroic act of risking your own life to save your companions. Be my son!"

Whitebeard placed his big hand on Deuce's shoulder and looked at him lovingly.

Upon hearing this, Deuce looked at Whitebeard in shock.

What's going on? Just now he looked like he would never give up.

Why would she accept him as her son the next second?

Deuce was not in the habit of being someone else's son.

He is not Ace who is short of love.

Wait, why am I thinking of Ace?

Deuce looked at Whitebeard in astonishment and did not answer.

Whitebeard smiled.

"Kid, you can take your time to think about it. Don't worry, we just invited your captain to be a guest of the Whitebeard Pirates. We have no intention of harming him. Look at the bandages on his body. They were wrapped by our captain of the First Division!"

Whitebeard pointed at Ace who was still unconscious, and then at Marco who was standing next to Ace and Joz.

Marco scratched his head with his right hand and smiled.

Now, everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates understood.

Their father has taken a liking to this group of people.

He wanted to adopt these people as his own sons.

In an instant, the Whitebeard Pirates crew members who had originally been hostile to Ace and the Spade Pirates immediately discarded their hostility.

Instead, they showed smiles that were either honest or friendly.

In their eyes, this group of people will be their brothers in the future.

No one can refuse the son that his father wants to adopt.

After seeing those smiles, the Spade Pirates also lowered their raised weapons.

But there was still a sense of unreality in my heart.

The situation was tense just now, but the next second they were all in a happy mood.

The contrast is quite big.

When Whitebeard saw their actions, his smile grew even wider.

"Kids, have a party. Let's welcome the guests from the Spade Pirates!"

Whitebeard raised his right hand high, pointed it at the sky, and announced happily.

Upon hearing about the banquet, the crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates immediately became delighted.

"Have a party!"

The Moby Dick immediately became lively.

Sachi, who had been so domineering before, immediately and enthusiastically brought plates of delicious food to Deuce and others.

"Come and have a taste, this is the delicacy I prepared with great care!"

Thatch put his arm on Deuce's shoulders and said excitedly.

"That's right, Captain Thatch is our head chef. His cooking skills are amazing. Everyone who has eaten here says that his cooking is delicious. Even the captain of the BIGMOM Pirates, Charlotte Linlin, has invited Captain Thatch to join them because she is impressed by his cooking skills!"

The crew member next to him immediately introduced Thatch.

Deuce looked at Thatch curiously. He didn't expect that this person was the head chef of the Whitebeard Pirates.

It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.

The wine, the food and the laughter diluted the previous unpleasantness.

Deuce and the Spade Pirates soon forgot about Ace and joined forces with the Whitebeard Pirates.

They are all pirates on the sea, and there is nothing that can't be solved with a meal of wine.

The banquet lasted all day.

It didn't end until late at night.

the next day.

Joz, who had been in a coma for a day, woke up first.

"Ugh, I'm so hungry!"

Joz sat up on the deck.

At yesterday's banquet, Joz and Ace were left alone on the deck.

Let them lie on the deck.

Joz smelled the rich aroma of wine and delicious food.

Look around.

It was discovered that the crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates were lying on the deck in all directions, looking drunk.

Needless to say, Joz understood what was happening.

Yesterday, the Whitebeard Pirates held a banquet!

But why hold a banquet?

Soon, Joz found the answer.

On the deck, in addition to the Whitebeard Pirates crew, there were also a few strangers lying there.

Although he was unfamiliar, Joz still recognized him at a glance. Wasn't this the crew member of Fire Fist Ace?

How come they are here?

at this time!

Footsteps sounded.

Joz turned around and saw Marco walking slowly towards him.

"Captain Marco!"

Joz stood up immediately, but the pain in his body caused him to stagger.

"You don't need to stand up, just sit down. You are still very weak, so you shouldn't do any strenuous activities!"

Marco held the plate with both hands, and the hot barbecue on the plate was steaming.

Joz swallowed hard.

"Eat, I know you're starving!"

Marco said with a smile.

From the battle to now, Joz hasn't eaten for five days. How could he not be hungry?

Thinking of this, Marco glanced right at Ace who was lying next to Joz. He also hadn't eaten for five days.

But the other party obviously didn't wake up as quickly as Joz.

Joz swallowed his food in big mouthfuls.

He followed Marco's gaze and looked at Ace who was lying next to him.

"Marco, what happened? Why is he here?"

Joz was full of doubts.

"It was my father's order. When I brought you back, I was asked to bring Ace with me!"

Marco said, looking at Joz.

"Ok?"

Joz was puzzled.

"I guess Dad is interested in talent and wants to recruit Ace to join us!"

Marco smiled. He was used to his father's behavior.

Ever since he followed his father, his father has been gathering the Whitebeard Pirates step by step.
