One Piece: Start as a mythical beast, practice to become stronger

There was an inexplicable light in Marco's eyes. He was worried about the safety of Joz and the others, and was full of doubts and curiosity about Jin'an's attitude.

He walked forward and whispered, "Thank you" as he passed by Jin An.

Jin An nodded slightly and responded calmly: "I'm just doing my job."

If we don't let these two guys meet Joz and the others, who knows what kind of trouble will arise.

Whitebeard and Marco boarded the warship with Jin'an. The atmosphere was still tense, but no longer hostile.

Whitebeard's huge figure was particularly conspicuous in the narrow passage of the warship, and every step he took made the surrounding naval soldiers feel invisible pressure.

However, both the pirates and the navy remained calm and no one acted rashly.

When they arrived in front of the cabin where Joz and Thatch were imprisoned, Whitebeard paused slightly.

Although he remained calm on the surface, a strong wave of emotions was surging deep in his heart.

He reached out his hand and gently pushed open the door of the cabin, and saw two scarred captains handcuffed with seastone.

Even though Joz and Thatch still had resolute expressions, when Whitebeard saw their appearance, a trace of pain that was difficult to conceal flashed in his eyes.

Marco followed closely behind, his fists clenched unconsciously, his knuckles turning white from the effort.

He felt a sharp pain in his heart, as memories of fighting alongside Joz and Thatch over the years kept flashing through his mind, and he wished he could free them from their chains right away.

However, he knew that he couldn't act impulsively at this moment, otherwise it would only make the situation worse.

Whitebeard didn't say anything, he just stood there quietly, looking at Joz and Thatch with complicated eyes.

The two captains also raised their heads, and the moment they saw Whitebeard, the determination in their eyes seemed to have found support, and their painful expressions were replaced by a touch of relief.

"Dad..." Joz's voice was low, but filled with immense respect and trust.

Jin An stood quietly at the door of the cabin, his hands hanging naturally at his sides, his eyes slightly narrowed, watching the scene in front of him.

At this time, Whitebeard was no longer the terrifying sea king in the legend, but an elderly but dignified father who would do anything to protect his "family".

Every word and every sentence of his revealed an unbreakable determination.

Whitebeard's deep voice seemed to vibrate in the air, and his calm tone concealed a deep power: "Don't worry, I will find a way to bring you home."

Although these words were spoken calmly, they were as firm as an oath, and the hearts of everyone present were shocked.

Jin An watched from the side, feeling a complex emotion rising in his heart.

He was supposed to be Whitebeard's enemy, standing in the opposing camp, but at this moment, he felt an unexpected respect.

Whitebeard's desperate determination to protect his family is in stark contrast to his well-known image as a pirate.

"I'm not trying to pour cold water on you," Jin An finally spoke up to break the silence, his voice steady but with a hint of helplessness, "It's going to be quite difficult for you to accomplish this."

Whitebeard smiled slightly, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were deeply engraved on his weather-beaten face, but that smile revealed a kind of fearlessness and determination, "It's better than doing nothing."

Jin An nodded, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

He could understand Whitebeard's desire to try his best rather than sit and wait for death, "We in the navy cannot make the decision on this matter."

He spoke calmly when he said this, but he knew in his heart that any head-on conflict with such a powerful and stubborn opponent would only lead to unpredictable consequences.

Whitebeard grinned, with a hint of danger in that smile, his voice was low and threatening, "I know, otherwise do you think you can still talk to me like this now?"

There was no exaggeration in his words; his threats were real and justified.

If Joz and Thatch were captured by the navy, he wouldn't have so much patience to negotiate. Fighting is the way of communication he is good at.

After all, in his opinion, he had not done many evil things over the years, and he just made a living by collecting protection fees.

If the navy dares to mess with him, he definitely won't mind teaching them what a true pirate king is.

"World Government? I'll go there." Whitebeard said nonchalantly, as if the Five Elders of Mary Geoise were just a few old men not worth mentioning.

Jin An knew that this was not just self-confidence, but also a kind of dominance that had long been tempered in blood and fire.

"Now that I see that they are both not injured, I feel relieved." Whitebeard looked at Joz and Thatch in the cabin, with a rare tenderness in his eyes.

Even though they were imprisoned, as long as they were alive, he had a way to bring them home.

"Then I'll go first." He turned around, his steps still steady and powerful, without the slightest hesitation.

There was no point for him to stay here unless he used force, but he did not want to go to war with the navy. His target was Marijoa and the rulers who sat at the top of power.

He just wants to live out the rest of his life in peace with his family.

Jinan looked at the white-bearded man's back, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.

He couldn't help but secretly feel fortunate that today's dialogue could end peacefully, otherwise a catastrophic large-scale conflict would be inevitable.

"I hope everything goes well for you." There was a hint of sincerity in Jin'an's tone. He did not want to become an enemy of Whitebeard because he knew that he was not absolutely sure that he could defeat the man in front of him.

Whitebeard's power is enough to change the whole world.

And once he gets completely angry, the consequences will be disastrous.

Jin An's eyes became sharp, and he continued, "Watch out for Blackbeard. If I'm not mistaken, his next target is you, or more precisely, your position and strength."

His voice was low, but it held a warning that could not be ignored.

Jin An knew very well that Teach was no ordinary person, and his ambition and strength should not be underestimated.

"He now has the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit, but his body seems to be able to control at least two more abilities."

These words seemed to drop a huge rock on Whitebeard's heart.

His pupils contracted slightly. This was the first time he heard that someone could control the powers of two devil fruits. While he found it unbelievable, a strong sense of anger surged in his heart.

When had he ever been looked down upon by others, Blackbeard?

Just a brat.

However, he still took Jin An's words to heart. After all, even he could not see through the strength of the young man in front of him.

Whitebeard took a deep breath, then nodded solemnly, "Thank you for the reminder, I will pay attention to it."

He didn't trust others easily, but at this moment, he felt that Jin An's words were full of sincerity.

His expression returned to calm and steady, and he left the warship with Marco and walked towards the Moby Dick.

Looking at the gradually receding backs of Whitebeard and Marco, Jinan felt a complex emotion in his heart.

The storm is far from over, and the undercurrents in the sea may just be a brief calm before the storm.
