Chapter 42: Phoenix Marco

For the Whitebeard Pirates, this matter was quite embarrassing.

"Raven! This hairless brat dares to provoke me, pick an intern crew member from your team to fight with this kid." After speaking, Whitebeard slammed the naginata in his hand to the ground and then returned to his seat.

Since the other party is a student of Marine, the Whitebeard Pirates will also ask the trainee crew to fight him. As for the final outcome, it doesn't matter who wins or loses, and there will be no loss to the Whitebeard Pirates' prestige.

"Fortunately." Seeing that Whitebeard was not overwhelmed by anger, Raven Duskblade was slightly relieved.

As long as Whitebeard doesn't make a move, no matter what the outcome is, it will have no effect on their Whitebeard Pirates.

As for the grievances between the Whitebeard Pirates and Varen, that can be discussed later. There are many people who have enmity with the Whitebeard Pirates. If there is no special need, there is no reason to risk damaging their own reputation by doing such foolish things.

Immediately afterwards, Raven Duskblade turned around and looked at the intern crew members in his team.

But under Varen's Reiatsu just now, even many combat members couldn't move, let alone his trainee crew.

"Marco! Come on!"

At this moment, Raven Duskblade suddenly saw Marco who was fighting against Varen's Reiatsu with his own ability! Seeing that Marco could still move under Varen's Reiatsu, even if it was with the help of his Devil Fruit ability, it was enough to show Marco's strength.

As for Marco, Raven Duskblade also knew about this trainee crew member. Normally, in his capacity, he wouldn't remember the name of a trainee crew member.

But Marco was different, because Marco was not only his trainee crew member but also Whitebeard's exclusive doctor.

It is the same Zoan Devil Fruit user as himself, but Marco's ability is even rarer than his own ancient species or even Logia Devil Fruit!

The "Mythical Zoan" bird-bird fruit, model: phoenix! Possessing super regenerative abilities. Although Marco's strength was still very weak, even to defeat Marco, he had to exhaust the opponent's physical strength.

Because the phoenix fruit is not Logia, it can be grabbed directly with Haki. Even if Marco is hit by Haki head-on, he can quickly recover with his Devil Fruit ability.

"Marco the Phoenix! I didn't expect to be the future first division commander."

Varen was also a little surprised to see the person selected by Raven Duskblade.

Obviously, 32 years before the start of the plot, Marco must not have had such terrifying strength, and naturally he couldn't be the captain of the first division of the Whitebeard Pirates.

However, among the trainee crew, Marco's strength had indeed reached the ceiling, and even some combat members could be dealt with by Marco's fruit ability.

"That's right, Marco knew about Whitebeard's relationship with Rocks, so it's normal to board Whitebeard's ship so early." Thinking of this, Varen also felt it was normal.

After all, Marco knew that Whitebeard and Miss Bakkin had stayed on the Rocks' ship together, so it must have been a very early time for him to board Whitebeard's ship.

Moreover, Marco joined the Whitebeard Pirates as a ship doctor, and he must have obtained the Devil Fruit ability of the Mythical Zoan for a long time.

But what surprised Varen even more was that Marco already had the strength to slowly resist his Reiatsu, and it was no wonder that he could become the leader of the Whitebeard Pirates in the future, Whitebeard's right-hand man.

"Interesting, let's try it!" Varen was also a little interested after glancing at Marco.

Anyway, Marco is also the captain of the first division in the future. Although his strength is still relatively weak, the experience he can provide is probably the highest among the Whitebeard Pirates, except for Whitebeard himself.

"Captain Raven, Dad, I..." Seeing his captain and Whitebeard gesturing for him to fight, Marco was at a loss.

From the expressions of Raven and Whitebeard just now, he could tell that this battle seemed to be very important.

For him, however, it would have been too much to resist Varen's Reiatsu, let alone do other superfluous things.

With such a huge gap, I'm afraid he will only lose in a very ugly way.

It doesn't matter that he loses face, but he doesn't want the name of the Whitebeard Pirates to be damaged.

"Marco, go! It doesn't matter whether you win or lose. The most important thing is to know the gap between you and your peers, and then become stronger." Raven Duskblade, also said comfortingly.

The other captains also nodded.

Although they hadn't fought yet, they already knew that Marco would definitely lose.

After all, some of the captains present might not guarantee that they could last too long in Varen's hands. The news that Varen killed World Destroyer was quite popular before, and even World Destroyer was defeated. Most of them did not have World Destroyer Byrnndi World's strength.

Only the captain of the first division, Hunting Shadow, which was the title given to Raven Duskblade, could wrestle with Varen.

"I understand!" Hearing what his captain said, Marco also knew that he couldn't refuse.

That being the case, he could only do his best not to lose face.

"Let's go!" After finishing speaking, Marco's whole body was engulfed in green flames, and he rushed towards Varen at an extremely fast speed.

Seeing this scene, Varen unhurriedly pulled out the Zanpakutō from his hand.

So far, everything that happened on the whole Whitebeard Pirate Ship was within his expectation, even including Whitebeard's thoughts.

You must know that Varen inherited not only strength but also Aizen's intelligence
