Pirates: Building a Pirate Family.

This is undoubtedly a major turning point in Ace's life.

A few days later, the Whitebeard Pirates held a grand party.

All the crew members gathered together from all directions to celebrate this happy moment together.

Everyone's face was filled with joy, even the usually serious Whitebeard was no exception.

His burly figure sat on a huge wooden barrel filled with fine wine, and he looked lovingly at the lively scene before him.

At this time, Ace was mingling with the other crew members, enjoying the pleasure brought by delicious food and wine.

I saw him holding the barbecue in one hand and the bottle of wine in the other, eating voraciously and chatting and laughing with his friends around him without any scruples.

Marco sat quietly aside, looking at Ace's unrestrained appearance with a smile on his face, his heart full of relief.

At this moment, Marco suddenly stood up, cleared his throat, and then said loudly: "Brothers and sisters, after everyone's unanimous discussion, the position of captain of the second team of our Whitebeard Pirates will be held by Ace from now on!"

As soon as the words fell, the originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were cast on Ace.

When Ace heard the news, he was shocked.

His mouth was still full of food that he had not yet swallowed, but he choked in his throat because of excessive surprise.

He pounded his chest frantically, trying to swallow the food.

He quickly snatched the wine glass from Sachi's hand, tilted his head back and started drinking in big gulps.

"Don't worry, Ace, food won't grow wings and fly away! And you are the star of our banquet today!"

Seeing this, Thatch couldn't help but burst into laughter, and patted Ace's shoulder to comfort him.

However, no one expected that the smile on Sachi's face suddenly froze in the next second.

It turned out that Ace was standing straight in front of them and fell into a deep sleep.

"Fell asleep?"

The crew members around were stunned at first, and then burst into laughter.

The entire banquet hall was filled with laughter and the atmosphere became increasingly cheerful and lively.

……

"Fire Fist Ace becomes the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' second division!"

This news was like a bombshell. When the newspaper was released, it instantly caused an uproar in the entire park.

Everyone was dumbfounded. They had never expected that the man hailed as the strongest supernova of the year would choose to resolutely join the Whitebeard Pirates at the end of the 1517th year of the Sea Calendar.

When this news came out, all parties were shocked.

On the naval side, the generals frowned and began to re-evaluate the strength of the Whitebeard Pirates and make corresponding adjustments to their strategic deployment.

The revolutionary army closely followed the development of the situation, thinking about how to use this change to advance their own revolutionary cause.

The World Government is even more nervous, worried that the Whitebeard Pirates will take this opportunity to further expand their influence and affect the balance of the world.

Even the other three sea emperors - Charlotte Linlin, Yamato and Ben Beckman - have turned their attention to the Whitebeard Pirates, secretly speculating on the possible impact of this change.

Even in the faraway Rockefeller Kingdom, children and ministers were staring at the newspapers in surprise and talking about it.

However, amidst all the noise and astonishment, there was only one person who remained unusually calm, and that was Charlotte.

Because he knew that Ace's decision was not accidental.

Ace is a child with a huge trauma hidden deep inside.

He lost his parents at a young age and spent his childhood in loneliness and confusion.

Those painful memories lingered in his mind like nightmares, making it difficult for him to let go.

Moreover, because he was burdened with the so-called "sin", he felt even more pressured, as if an insurmountable mountain was pressing down on his young shoulders.

Despite being adopted by Garp, the navy hero was often busy with affairs and had no idea of ​​Ace's true inner needs.

His negligence and indifference made Ace, who desperately longed for the warmth of family affection, feel extremely lost.

However, fate is always full of dramatic twists and turns.

Just when Ace was feeling lost and helpless, he met the man who valued family affection the most in the pirate world - Edward Newgate.

Whitebeard accepted Ace with his broad mind and gave him the fatherly care he had never felt before.

This kind of sincere emotional exchange was like a ray of light in the darkness, illuminating the long-standing haze in Ace's heart.

As a result, brilliant sparks flew between the collision of the two hearts, which eventually prompted Ace to willingly join the Whitebeard Pirates family.

At this moment, Charlotte's mind was not on the trivial matters in front of him. His main focus was whether the war at the top would break out in the future.

Charlotte is still somewhat looking forward to the upcoming battle.

But Charlotte was not sure whether the world would change because of his appearance.

After all, the Rockefeller empire today is not something that can be ignored.

But as long as he keeps a close eye on Blackbeard, everything is still under his control.

Can Blackbeard really get the dark fruit that is destined to belong to him?

However, no matter what the outcome.

As the first major event Luffy has encountered since he set out to sea, he must plan ahead and make adequate preparations in advance so that he can calmly deal with this new round of reshuffle that is about to sweep the entire world.

This vast sea area called the New World has always been known for its dangers and unpredictable situations.

At this moment, Napoleon was in the midst of a storm, leading his fleet to chase the fleeing pirate ships in front.

Huge sea dragons with bared fangs and claws were seen dancing wildly on the rough sea, and they easily smashed the pirate ships to pieces.

Although the number of pirates in the New World has decreased compared to the past, and most of the powerful and famous ones have already died at the hands of the Rockefeller Kingdom, there are still some cunning pirates hiding in the depths of this dangerous sea, always watching for opportunities to make a comeback.

After a fierce battle, Napoleon finally wiped out this pirate force effortlessly.

Then, his men searched the pirate ship and found a newly published newspaper.

When Napoleon unfolded the newspaper, several familiar words immediately caught his eye.

"Have you joined the Whitebeard Pirates? Work hard to become stronger, Ace!"

Napoleon took the newspaper and continued to complete the next cleanup.

Time passes little by little.

Before we knew it, it was the year 1518 in the Haiyuan calendar.
