Druzy's defeat did not at first cause the government to take Roy fully seriously; it was his battle with Kaido that really drew attention.
"According to intelligence, Druzy, who was originally of a warlike disposition, has not been seen for two months, and in this way, an idea has occurred to me!"
No sooner had Crane finished his words than Warlord nodded, "I see, you mean that Druzy may have died without treatment, it must have been not long ago ..."
"Why is it recent, Admiral Warlord?" A major general asked with a frown.
"Roger, and the Golden Lion, have both been making trouble in Whitebeard's territory recently, and even though they are angry, Whitebeard will not act rashly, and he must watch the two monsters with some reserve."
Seeing that Warlord went on, Crane didn't say much more, after all, Warlord was the backbone of their team.
After hearing Warlord's explanation, many people nodded secretly, then Warlord added, "But even so, we can still sell Roy's message to Whitebeard!"
With that, Warlord's eyes shifted upwards, "There was also information coming in earlier that the Double Dragon Pirates under Whitebeard's banner were causing mischief in Grim Town, wasn't there? Let's use them and see if we can achieve our goal!"
At this point, even if Warlord did not continue to explain, everyone understood what he wanted to say.
First use the Whitebeard Pirates to have a battle with Roy, then see if we can get a bargain.
On the other hand, for the collision between Roger and Skye that is happening in the new world right now, the navy is not bothered about it, it is just waiting for them to do the annihilation battle after they are both defeated.
Pirates ah ...
It is only that the duo of Roger and Shiki are too close to Whitebeard's territory, and Whitebeard prevented the war between the two no less than himself from spilling over to his side, before choosing to sit down personally and not bothering with Roy for the time being.
In other words, Whitebeard was ready to settle the score in the autumn.
Warlord pondered while stroking his beard, thinking that he was completely correct in his thinking, after all, as a naval admiral, he himself lived off his brains most of the time.
...
The town of Grim is a modest town in the New World, about the same size as Dressrosa.
The Two Dragons Pirates are the more powerful pirate group under Whitebeard's command, and the captains are two brothers who call themselves the Two Dragons, hence the title: the Two Brothers of Backbone Mountain.
After robbing the wealthy merchants of Grim of a lot of their treasures, they swaggered around the tavern drinking!
As the Double Dragon Pirates were laughing, the two brothers suddenly heard a table of people sitting next to them not far away talking.
"That Roy who fought to a draw with the Hundred Beasts Kaido is on the continent of Lulusais? Really."
Having just heard this, the Backbone Mountain boss gestured for the rest of the Pirates to shut up for the moment.
The conversation continued, only to hear another man say, "Nonsense, a distant brother of mine is a soldier from the kingdom of Ekotse, he said that just a few days ago during the war, that eternal angel Roy broke into the battlefield and killed no less than 10,000 people for a devil fruit, and no one he killed was left with even a scrap of bone, and it was said that they were all eaten by him on the spot and sacrificed to the evil god ..."
"More than 10,000 people died? What about the Navy and the government? Such a vicious pirate, why aren't they arrested!" Another man who heard this said in surprise!
"Look you are an idiot, if a kingdom wants to ask for help from the navy or the world government, it has to be a world government franchise, if not, that fee, is not something the average kingdom can afford to pay!"
"They say that Roy hasn't left yet, he's at ... right now"
"..."
Hearing this, the two brothers of Backbone Mountain beckoned, and at once the men of the Double Dragon Pirates put down the glasses in their hands and ran out the door, with the Backbone Mountain boss quickly dialing Whitebeard's phone number and telling him what they had just heard.
Inside the tavern, the table of men who had just been chatting ripped their tunics off their bodies, revealing their trademark navy vests.
After making a face with the shopkeeper, he immediately put up a sign on the door, "Closed today"!
After one of them put his navy cap back on, he dialed the phone bug and spoke to the person on the other side, "Admiral Warlord, the mission has been completed and the information has been sold to the people of the Double Dragon Pirates!"
"Very well!"
The Warlord on the other end of the phone showed an old and deep look, "You guys just secretly monitor the actions of the Whitebeard Pirates in these waters, but don't expose them, three big pirates gathered here, mess up and you'll die!"
"Yes!"
...
After Roger entered the new world, the golden lion, one of the old rivals, immediately shifted the direction of travel of his fleet, led a meeting with Roger, and finally ended up meeting on a sea extremely close to the White Beard Pirates some time recently.
If Roger and the Golden Lion had fought, it would have been a shame for Whitebeard to have to face this place.
Therefore, even without meeting Roger and the others, Whitebeard was still very alert to see what tricks these two old friends could play.
The news that his brother Mitsuki Goten's wife had run away with her two children, Mitsuki Momonosuke and Mitsuki Niwa, made Goten think that he had failed to protect his family and caused some gap between Goten and Whitebeard, and Whitebeard felt ashamed to meet Goten.
On the other hand, and just as Warlord had predicted, Druzy, the captain of the second team, was seriously wounded after his battle with Roy a few months ago and eventually took his last breath a fortnight ago.
Whitebeard was naturally furious, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that Druzy was his first son, so how could he not be?
But the old man had to suppress his anger for the time being, with Roger and the Golden Lion close at hand and the news that Roy and Kaido had fought for five days and five nights, eventually drawing the battle, and then going nowhere.
For double reasons, Whitebeard did not bother to clean up after Roy for the time being, but waited for the outcome of Roger's meeting with the Golden Lion.
Druzy's death went unnoticed; after all, he died months after the battle with Roy.
Yet just today, Whitebeard's favourite son, Marco, suddenly reported that the Double Dragon Pirates had received information that Roy was on the continent of Lulusis, intruding into the war between the two countries.
For the moment, it should still be there.
Whitebeard could also anticipate the reason why the news had not reported this incident, the death of Druzy, this had to be avenged anyhow.
But, not at this time.
Although he had never fought Roy head to head, he had nevertheless fought Kaido twice.
That guy, even he couldn't be killed easily.
Roy had actually fought him to a draw, and that was no longer something that any of his men could handle.
Even if he was able to send numbers to suppress it, so what, just taking the lives of more sons to avenge the sorrows of one son, it wouldn't cut it.
Although Whitebeard said that once on the ship they were all his sons, he was still a man in the end, and people have selfishness. For example, the two sons who had just come on board, Marshall D. Titch and Satch, he preferred Satch, and for Titch, he disliked him very much, he just couldn't say it openly, but his actions showed that he was clearly biased towards Satch.
Then there is the topsy-turvy war that breaks out in the future, where Whitebeard has completely disregarded the lives of his other sons in order to save Ace.
After rejecting the advice of Marco and Dumpling and others who wanted to go on a crusade against Roy, Whitebeard made a vow in front of his own sons that after Roger's meeting with the Golden Lion was over.
He would go and anally kill Roy himself.
