Chapter 497 Whitebeard's decision
As time goes by, with financial assistance from dozens of countries and the secret support of the Beast Pirates, NEO's scale has grown explosively.
In just one month, NEO's military strength expanded to ten thousand people, and multiple war fortresses and garrison branches were put into construction.
Beehive Island Harbor, Moby Dick.
In the largest cabin, Whitebeard was waiting silently, holding a wine glass in his left hand and a NEO recruitment flyer sent by the beasts in his right hand.
Soon, the captains pushed open the door and entered.
"Ku la la la, they're all here."
"Dad."
Early this morning, Dad suddenly summoned them and said that they had important matters to discuss. Thinking of the recent turmoil in the new world, it may be related to NEO.
When the captains saw the recruitment flyer in their father's hand, they showed such expressions.
NEO is a decent organization and the natural enemy of pirates. Except for the Beast Pirates behind the scenes, there are no other pirates in the New World who are not worried.
Everyone knows that although NEO is still in its infancy, it will not be long before it becomes the sharpest knife in Kaido's hand.
The strongest Whitebeard Pirates have naturally become the vane of pirates in the New World. Recently, their captains have come to visit them, hoping that their father can come forward to stop NEO.
No one wants to have a knife hanging over their head!
"Dad, are you worried about NEO?"
"Yes and no."
Whitebeard nodded, then shook his head.
He is not worried about NEO's threat to the Whitebeard Pirates, but the growth of NEO will inevitably affect the Whitebeard Pirates.
Be prepared for a rainy day!
"Marco, Joz, Sachi"
Whitebeard read out the names of his sons with an unprecedented seriousness in his eyes: "I'm calling you here this time in the hope that some of you can join NEO!"
"Join NEO?"
The captains looked at each other.
Jozi clapped his palms and suddenly realized.
"Dad, do you want us to be undercover agents?"
"."
Whitebeard was silent.
Marco complained at the side: "Joz, even if we really need to send an undercover agent, it must be someone who cannot be noticed by the other party. Our name has already been known to everyone!"
"Yes!"
Jozi scratched his head, he had never thought of this.
"Dad, why do you want to join NEO?"
"No special reason."
Whitebeard didn't know how to explain it to his sons.
If I have to say it, it’s intuition.
NEO may be the retreat for the Whitebeard Pirates!
The atmosphere is a bit stiff.
No one wants to leave alone.
Marco came out to smooth things over: "Dad, even if you want us to join NEO, you have to give us some time to think about it."
"Ku la la la, of course, you think about it for yourselves. It doesn't matter if no one joins NEO. It's getting late. Let's all go and rest."
Whitebeard waved his hand, signaling for his sons to leave.
Soon, he was the only one left in the cabin.
"Gulu~~"
Whitebeard swallowed secretly, looked at the closed hatch, stood up and went to the cabinet, opened it and rummaged around.
"I put the wine away."
"."
Whitebeard froze and twisted his head back mechanically. When he saw Marco, he defended himself like a child who had done something wrong.
"I'm not looking for a drink."
"."
Marco rolled his eyes.
In the entire Whitebeard Pirates, he was probably the only one who, as the ship's doctor, could see such a childish side of his father.
Because he was the one who forbade dad to drink too much.
"then."
A bottle of fine wine was thrown into Dad's arms.
"This will never happen again!"
"."
Under the dim candlelight, the father and son enjoyed the hard-won leisure time with a bottle of fine wine and two small wine glasses.
As for why I didn’t light the lamp, I was afraid of being discovered by others.
"Ku la la la, it's been a long time since I drank such delicious wine."
Whitebeard felt more relaxed than ever.
Drinking wine with his sons is always the best, and in front of Marco, he doesn't have to hide much.
Marco shook his head helplessly and said seriously: "Dad, you asked us to join NEO. Is this really the case?"
"Marco, you know my physical condition better than anyone else."
Whitebeard sighed: "In 10 years, if we experience a few more wars, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive even 10 years."
"."
Marco's eyes dimmed, and he knew that his father was right.
Due to injuries accumulated from years of fighting, coupled with the effects of aging, dad's physical condition is declining rapidly. He has been sick more and more recently, and has even been put on a ventilator.
In ten years at most, my father's strength will not be able to protect the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates, and none of their sons can carry the flag.
Including the red-haired one, every Yonko has undisputed terrifying power!
Moreover, as the situation in the new world changes, the living space for pirates will become less and less. Joining or replacing the Four Emperors will be the only way out for pirates.
The competition will only get fiercer!
Marco asked in a deep voice: "Dad, can NEO really suppress the pirates in the new world?"
"NEO can't."
Whitebeard shook his head and then added: "But Kaido can!"
Kaido can do it!
Back then, Kaido fought with him for seven days and seven nights. Although he won the victory, the pain recurred because of it, and the wound is still painful to this day.
He knows Kaido's power better than anyone else.
Now, Kaido is more powerful!
The results of the previous war between the beasts and the World Government, as well as the subsequent meeting of the four emperors, made him, Hongfa and Lingling realize this.
Currently, the strongest pirate group on the sea is definitely the Beast Pirates, and the strongest pirate is Kaido!
Therefore, when faced with Kaido's request for cooperation, they did not refuse, not only because of the interest relationship, but also because of Kaido's demonstrated strength.
And NEO is undoubtedly Kaido's tool to control the new world. Joining it during the establishment period may become a retreat for the Whitebeard Pirates in the future.
"How long can you protect them?"
Whitebeard recalled Jhin's taunt and smiled bitterly in his heart.
Once he falls, the Whitebeard Pirates will inevitably be attacked by a pack of wolves and eventually be devoured.
He has seen too many similar situations.
"Marco, I have made a decision. No matter what happens in the future, I plan to retire in 10 years."
The name of the Four Emperors is the most troublesome thing in itself and will attract countless enemies. Even if he does not want to fight, the enemies will come to him.
Hiding is the best way. He wants to protect his sons, but he doesn't want to be a burden or burden to them.
The room was extremely quiet except for the sound of two people drinking.
After finishing the bottle of wine, Marco stood up with a smile, stretched out his thumb, and pointed at himself.
"I'll go to NEO!"
"Dad, I have been traveling and looking for another way to protect my friends. It would be a good idea to join NEO."
"Also, I'm not bragging, I am the strongest among the captains. If I join NEO, I can at least occupy the position of a general!"
"Let me protect the future of the Whitebeard Pirates!"
