76 Pirate Festival Begin

Under the attention of all the people, the Festival was begin.

A massive ship sailed through the entrance and arrived at the Festival island.

The first part of the festival is the treasure hunt, and the treasure is none other than the Pirate King Roger treasure.

Knowing this, the pirates were all excited.

"Heehahahah~"

"Whitebeard hasn't come yet?

Donquixote Doflamingo docked his boat by the bay.

He had no interest in the so-called treasure hunt.

It can even be said that any pirate who is a bit famous in the New World would not participate in this kind of game.

He didn't know if the treasure was true or not.

Secondly, what if it is true?

To get the treasure, after all, it relies on strength.

If there really is a treasure of the Pirate King, then the one who claims it must be the strongest!

Not those participants.

Their only role is to assist the strongest in finding the treasure.

Then they were knocked to the ground by the strongest, and the treasure will be taken away.

But...

Those ordinary pirates don't know this.

They believed that when they found the treasure, it would naturally become their own.

So everyone was excited, fully prepared to win the treasure hunt, and finally obtain the Pirate King Roger treasure, all while being watched by everyone!

They were eager to demonstrate their own power and capabilities.

"This festival really attracted a lot of pirates!"

Eustass 'Captain' Kid stood on his boat, Victoria Punk, with a look of excitement.

"If we can get first place in this treasure hunt, the name of our Kid Pirates will surely spread throughout the New World."

'Murder Machine' Killer's eyes were blazing with fighting spirit.

Ever since coming to the New World, they had faced numerous challenges and setbacks.

Before, in the first half of the Grand Line, the Kid Pirates were a formidable force and a major presence.

But once they entered the New World, everything changed.

They would randomly encounter opponents with bounties over 100 million, much more powerful than before.

This made the arrogant two feel a sense of frustration.

"Haahahaha"

"This treasure hunting game is just the beginning of our fame in the New World!"

Kid laughed.

While they talked, other supernovas were also having discussions.

Everyone shared the same idea as Kid, wanting to shine in this treasure game and gain fame in the New World.

Certainly.

Some people are slightly smarter

For example

"Donquixote Doflamingo, Byrnndi World, Beasts Pirates"

"These powerful New World pirates have already arrived, but they are all sitting in the audience. Aren't they planning to participate in this treasure hunt?"

'The Surgeon of Death', Trafalgar D. Water Law, calmly looked around, and then a flash of inspiration crossed his face: "Yes, seizing the treasure is one thing, but it's not just a simple treasure hunt. The ultimate ownership of the treasure doesn't solely depend on the participants' actions!"

While trying to understand this, he immediately chose to quit.

Knowing that if Roger's treasure is indeed real, the strength of their supernovas will be rendered useless. Even if one of them get the treasure, they can't keep the treasure themself.

Instead of wasting energy joining the hunt, it's better to conserve it and observe how the situation develops.

"That guy Trafalgar Law actually quit?

A flash of surprise appeared in Killer eyes

"Haahaha"

"Isn't he just like that? He claims to be cautious, but he's just a coward. He didn't even dare to participate in the treasure hunting game, yet he talks about establishing a foothold in the New World!"

A flash of contempt crossed Kid face.

And at that moment,

The host of the festival stepped forward and delivered a lot of opening remarks. Finally, he blew the whistle, officially announcing the start of the treasure hunting game.

"Go!"

Participants yelled one after another, immediately steering their ships to rush away.

At first, it was alright, but after a while, the teams that fell behind became unwilling and started to attack.

In no time, the treasure hunting game turned into a full-fledged naval war.

Because the participants in the game were some small fry.

As a result, the Supernovas, being much more capable pirates, quickly stood out and took the lead.

"Heehahahha~"

"Competing for the so-called treasure in front of everyone like clowns, perhaps they don't realize what they'll be facing next?"

'Heavenly Yaksha' Donquixote Doflamingo laughed with interest.

Watching ships fighting each other at sea is like watching monkeys play.

"They're a bunch of idiots. Do they truly believe the treasure will be theirs?"

Jack the Drought on the side smiled disdainfully.

He came because Kaido ordered him to witness for himself how strong Whitebeard is.

"The only thing in front of us is an appetizer; the real protagonist hasn't arrived yet!"

Donquixote Doflamingo looked at the distant sea.

The so-called treasure hunt is just a pre-match performance for strong people.

The real drama is the decisive battle between Whitebeard and Bullet.

The cheers continued.

Pirate boats rushed away in fear.

At the same time, a massive water column soared into the sky, and a bubble appeared in the sky.

Inside the bubble, there was an island.

People who saw the island became even more excited.

Amidst fierce cheers, the treasure hunting game reached its climax.

And at that moment

A black spot also appeared in the distant waters.

The black spot became bigger and bigger until it was completely exposed in front of everyone.

It's Whitebeard Pirates ship, the Moby Dick!

After several days of sailing, Whitebeard and his crew finally arrived at their destination.

As Moby Dick appeared, the powerhouses on the festival island sensed it, one after another, and turned their gaze towards the sea ahead.

"He's finally here!"

Hawkeye opened his eyes fiercely, and a sharp aura filled his body.

"Heehahahha"

"The show is finally about to begin!"

Donquixote Doflamingo stood up with excitement, stepped onto his seat, and laughed loudly.

"You are finally here, Whitebeard!"

Byrnndi World whispered.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Moby Dick sailed in slowly.

Finally, it stopped at the harbor.

Thud~

The sound of footsteps echoed.

This sound is barely audible, but to a group of powerful people, it's as loud as thunder.

The bustling venue suddenly quieted down.

Everyone looked at the bow of the Moby Dick, holding their breath, and inexplicably cold sweat slipped from their foreheads.

Because they knew what was coming.

Initiating the second era of great pirates, Whitebeard, known as the strongest man in the world, is finally about to appear!

The footsteps grew heavier and heavier.

And finally, the tall figure with a crescent moon beard emerged in front of everyone.

At the same time, a heroic laughter resounded throughout the festival.

"Guurarara~"

"Bullet, I have come. If you want the title of the strongest man in the world, come and take it yourself!"
