Chapter 18 Can whitebeard defeats 3 Admirals, Sengoku and Garp?

"Sea Knight Jinbei, right? I want to ask, was Portgas·D·Ace, my eldest nephew and the son of One Piece's Roger, imprisoned here a few minutes ago?"

"Whaaaat!!!!"

After Buggy said this, Eternal Hell fell into complete chaos after a few seconds of silence!

"Damn! Did I hear that correctly? Could it be that I've been locked up for too long and now I'm hallucinating?"

"No, you heard it right! That guy named Buggy just claimed that Fire Fist Ace, the second division captain of Whitebeard, who was taken away earlier, is Roger's son?"

"Whitebeard took Roger's son as his own? Hold on—things are getting confusing, let me slow down, let me slow down!"

<I wonder how will they react that Garp adopted Ace. If Garp is Ace's Grandpa does that mean Roger and Whitebeard who are Ace's Dad are also Garp's Sons? And with the addition of Dragon and Luffy. Garp does have the most notorious family.>

"I'm sorry, but this news is incredibly shocking, isn't it? By the way, is it even okay to talk about this kind of thing?"

"Unbelievable! This guy named Buggy, isn't he the same Buggy who hangs out with Shanks as a cabin boy!?"

"What nonsense is this guy spouting?Vice Vice Captain Gabban, say something! Is Ace truly Captain Roger's son? But isn't Ace going to be executed soon? Does that mean we watched helplessly as Captian's son was sentenced to death?"

"Shut up!!! How the hell am I supposed to know if Ace is Captain Roger's son? Wait, since this guy calls himself Buggy, he's coming to get us! Humph! And you old man stop shouting shit."

Just as Gabban finished speaking, the old voice from before playfully chimed in:

"Or what, Gabban? You might not be able to defeat this old man. You've been imprisoned for over ten or twenty years. If you ever get out, your fate won't be much different from Byrnndi Worlds! Hahahaha..."

"Shut up! Redfield, you old bastard! Didn't I defeat you with an axe and break your so-called invincible Sturdy body? You've been holding a grudge all this time!" Jabba exclaimed in anger and embarrassment.

Upon hearing this, Redfield also grew annoyed:

"Enough with your jokes, Gabban! If it weren't for your shameless Roger pirates besieging me, do you think you could have laid a finger on me? A bunch of dirty pirates who know nothing about Honour tried to trick and attack an old man like me!"

Gabban: "..."

Buggy paid no attention to the renewed chaos in Eternal Hell caused by his disturbance. He simply looked up at Jinbei.

Luffy, seemingly oblivious to Buggy's earlier statement, rushed excitedly to the prison door, grabbed the Seastone bars, and peered inside.

"Ace, Ace was imprisoned here... Ah, why do I suddenly feel so weak?"

Thud...

Luffy collapsed onto the ground like a noodle.

Jinbei, locked from within the prison, was dumbfounded by this scene and spoke after a long while: "He truly is an impulsive guy, just as Ace described..."

Having said that, Jinbei turned his head to look at Buggy and asked seriously: "Is what you said true, Mr Buggy?"

Buggy, using his powers, lifted Luffy to his side and simultaneously shattered the seastone prison gate and the chains binding Jinbei. He spoke slowly, under Jinbei's shocked gaze:

"If it were false, why would I bring this brat to Eternal Hell?"

Upon hearing this, Jinbei let out a long sigh:

"I never expected Ace to be Roger, the Pirate King's, son. But Mr Buggy, is it wise to reveal such information?"

"It doesn't matter; the Marines will announce it soon enough."

Buggy narrowed his eyes slightly:

"Why do you think the Marines chose to execute Ace today?"

"Um... why?."

Jinbei scratched his head as he got up.

"Because today marks the twentieth anniversary of Captain Roger's execution."

Buggy remained composed as he spoke slowly.

Buzz buzz...

As soon as he said this, Jinbei didn't react, and three bursts of Conqueror's Haki, comparable to Buggy's earlier display, erupted from deep within the prison!

Instantly, chaos ensued throughout Eternal Hell.

Being struck by Conqueror's Haki was never a pleasant experience, especially when it came unexpectedly in a triple dose!

"This..."

Jinbei, Luffy, and Ivankov were all taken aback by this revelation.

They never expected that three individuals in Eternal Hell possessed such formidable Conqueror's Haki!

"Alright, Mr Jinbei, now is not the time to be astonished by this."

Buggy looked at Jinbei with indifference, unaffected by the three bursts of Conqueror's Haki.

"The reason I rescued you is because I want you to join my crew."

"Impossible! Mr Buggy, although I'm grateful, I'm a member of Papa Whitebeard's crew!" Jinbei immediately shook his head.

"What if Whitebeard dies?" Buggy asked nonchalantly.

Upon hearing this, Jinbei's reaction became intense:

"What? Mr. Buggy, my father is incredibly strong, it's impossible..."

"Jinbei! Do you think that Whitebeard, in his seventies and covered in injuries, can take on the full might of the Marine Headquarters?"

Buggy interrupted Jinbei abruptly, his gaze unwavering:

"Garp, Sengoku, let's not mention them. He might be able to face off against one of the three Admirals on his own. But if he were to fight all of them, do you believe he could handle two against one? Or even one against three? If it were Whitebeard at the height of his power, I would have no doubts."

"But given the current circumstances, you don't seriously believe he is still the strongest in the world, do you? Once Whitebeard is stopped, without my support, Ace won't be saved, and the Whitebeard Pirates will be wiped out! Don't be so naive, Jinbei! Do you want Mermaid Island to be buried along with the Whitebeard Pirates?"

Buggy's words pierced Jinbei's heart like daggers, one after another.

With each sentence, Jinbei's face grew paler.

Until the final sentence became the straw that broke the camel's back.

Thud!

Jinbei took a few steps back, his face contorted with anguish, before eventually sitting on the ground, utterly defeated.

"You have some time to think it over before I find other crewmates," Buggy glanced at Jinbei, whose eyes seemed vacant, then turned and walked in another direction.

In that direction, Buggy sensed an aura inherited from his memories—a beastly aura in human form that had once terrified the former Buggy!
