Wind Island

The Imperial Shichibukai, Imperial Fists, the captains of the various divisions, and the affiliated pirate groups of the Big Daddy Pirates were all rushing to Candle Island. They quickly formed a huge encirclement, surrounding Whitebeard's remnants in this sea area.

If these Whitebeard Pirates' who were hiding in Whitebeard's secret hometown of Sphinx Island had not appeared, Basire would not have taken the initiative to cause trouble for them for a while.

After all, he has not yet swallowed up and digested all the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates. Some island residents still respect Edward Newgate very much. From time to time, loyal pirates and islanders will make trouble and rebel.

It is estimated that it will take some time for the Big Daddy Pirates to completely suppress and conquer these islands.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates appeared, they directly killed Catarina Devon, a cadre of the Big Daddy Pirates.

In this case, don't blame Basire for killing them all.

This time, even if the Red Hair Pirates come to break up the fight, they can't stop it!

Basire wondered if Shanks will start a war with the Big Daddy Pirates for the remnants of Whitebeard.

Speaking of which, no matter how good Shanks is, he probably wouldn't fight with Basire over the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates who were not relatives, friends, or anything.

After all, in the original work, he did not take action against the Blackbeard Pirates, and watched helplessly as they completely defeated the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates.

And now Basire, the new Yonkō, is already a very strong and important balance point in the New World. On the contrary, the remnants of Whitebeard and these loser dogs are no longer necessary.

It is the best choice for them to retreat wisely!

If they continue to fight for the glory of Whitebeard, then all this can only be left to strength.

Shanks didn't want to interfere with this act of revenge.

Of course, if the Whitebeard remnants led by Phoenix Marco are willing to join his ship, perhaps Shanks might consider accepting and protecting them, and even go to war with the Big Daddy Pirates.

The Whitebeard remnants are still very powerful.

However, these are all people absolutely loyal to Whitebeard. It is basically impossible for them to give up their Whitebeard Pirates title and join the Red Hair Pirates.

So after hearing the news that the Big Daddy Pirates were encircling and suppressing the remnants of Whitebeard, even though Shanks wanted to be the peacemaker again, the deputy captain, Benn Beckman, ruthlessly stopped him.

Because now they have no reason to help the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates.

This siege will not cause an imbalance in the New World. The Yonkō have not started a war with each other, which is the greatest stability.

If the Red Hair Pirates take action, then they will go to war with Basire, and it will be a war between two Yonkōs. Instead, they will become the main culprit of the imbalance.

···

To be honest, the Whitebeard remnants, even Big Mom Charlotte Linlin and Kaido of the Beasts were a little bit greedy for them. They all offered an olive branch to Phoenix Marco, a powerful mythical zoan user.

But Marco, who is extremely loyal to Whitebeard and regards him as a father, is unlikely to join the other Yonko's forces.

It is impossible for these two Yonkō to go to war with the Big Daddy Pirates for no reason because of the remnants of Whitebeard who refuse to surrender.

…

New World, Wind Island.

The Whitebeard Pirates who fled in a hurry from Candle Island were surrounded by various pirate ships of the Big Daddy Pirates and temporarily rested on this island.

With the help of some mysterious good people, they learned that this direction was a relatively weak place in the encirclement.

Because there are two fierce men in the other two directions: Crocodile and Shiryu.

But here, there is only Edward Weevil, who has been hunting down Whitebeard's affiliated pirate groups, but everyone knows that he's stupid and easy to fool.

These mysterious black hands felt that the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates should be able to kill this Edward Weevil.

Moreover, Edward Weevil used Whitebeard's name and claimed to be his son. This might also add a rage buff to the Whitebeard's remnants.

If Phoenix Marco and the others can kill him, then the Big Daddy Pirates will lose another arm, and after Catarina Devon, they will lose a more important Imperial Shichibukai this time.

"Edward Weevil, this is a guy who came out of nowhere, pretending to be dad's son, and calling himself Whitebeard II. We must kill him, dad's reputation cannot be tarnished!!"

Buffalo Atmos held two swords and said angrily, but he soon discovered that very few of his brothers and partners seemed to agree with him.

It seems that his killing of Catarina Devon in a sudden move has aroused the dissatisfaction of some commanders and affiliated captains.

There was an opportunity to exchange the prisoner for Blamenco, but now it was ruined by this bull-like reckless man.

"... Atmos is right. Killing Edward Weevil will not only clear dad's name, but we can also quickly retreat from this direction."

The commander of the 5th division, Vista, also said seriously that now is not the time for internal quarrels. Once the Big Daddy Pirates successfully gather and surround them, they will be completely annihilated.

"Marco, I don't think we should get too entangled with that Weevil. We should run away immediately after we defeat him."

Chameleone spoke again, thinking that he was ready to quit the declining Whitebeard Pirates after this safe escape.

He didn't want to be buried with them. He still had a bright future to enjoy. At worst, he will take good care of their women after the commanders and affiliated captains die.

"I think what Chameleone said is right. If we fight him for too long, we won't be able to escape!"

The captain of the affiliated pirate group, the Takotopus Pirates, Karma also spoke nervously. He, an octopus fish-man, has been a member of the Whitebeard Pirates for nearly thirty years and has always lived under the protection of Whitebeard.

But back then, he was defeated and decisively hugged Whitebeard's thigh. However, for some reason, there were always some commanders and affiliated captains who despised him.

Because he was a human trafficker back then. At that time, he wanted to kidnap Amatsuki Toki, the wife of Kozuki Oden, the former commander of the second division. He wanted to capture her and sell her, but he met the Whitebeard Pirates by chance.

Not only was he frightened by Kozuki Oden, but he was also quickly defeated by the Whitebeard Pirates at their peak.

Originally he thought he was dead, but instead of killing him, Whitebeard accepted him and protected him. Karma's Takotopus Pirates became the first affiliated pirate group.

Under his father's request and intimidation, he rarely engaged in the business of kidnapping and selling people.

However, as a pirate, although he would not do such things openly, occasionally when he was short of money, he would secretly return to his old business and make a quick buck.

After all, it's easy to change a person's situation, but it's hard to change one's nature. Some old habits and instincts cannot be given up.
