The two of them had been fighting like this for a day and a night.
By the next day, Luffy had already gone back with Makino to have dinner and wake up from a sleep, and when he returned in the morning to continue watching the battle, the two of them were still fighting.
“So, so amazing.”
“In the future, I want to be as strong as Shanks and his crew, then find the Great Treasure and become the Pirate King.”
Bang~ Thud!
While the battle raged on over there, Beckman and the others on the other side had long since lost that initial sense of tension.
The two of them were fairly evenly matched, so it didn’t look like any major accidents would happen.
Once they were tired, they would stop.
“Come on, Lucky Roux, let’s have another drink.”
“Coming, cheers, Kalmande.”
Kalmande had also long since run over to drink, eat meat, and watch the battle with the rest of the Red Hair Pirates.
Over the course of the day, both sides had chatted quite a bit.
Upon learning that these two were setting sail for the first time and had only been at sea for a few days, they were shocked.
To be at the peak the moment they set sail—are newcomers these days really this terrifying?
During the fight, Shanks and Kazi would occasionally glance over at the onlookers.
The rich aroma of wine and roasted meat had long since made them both crave it terribly.
“Damn it, that bastard Kalmande.
I’ll definitely have to train him properly when we get back.”
Kazi also didn’t want to fight anymore; not only was he exhausted, but he was also starving.
“Hey, Shanks, let’s both take a step back, then decide the winner with one move.”
“The loser drinks three bottles of wine in a row, dare you?”
Kazi’s words were exactly what Shanks wanted; he didn’t want to fight anymore either, but this involved the dignity of a swordsman and a Captain.
Plus, the bet of drinking three bottles of wine…
As a seasoned alcoholic, Shanks felt he could accept either winning or losing.
“No problem, Kazi.”
The two had been fighting for a day, and Shanks had long since learned Kazi’s name.
The two stepped back, separating by more than ten meters, just as their feet touched the ground.
Kazi suddenly swung his fist and punched into the air.
“Space Displacement!”
This time, Kazi didn’t swap himself; instead, he swapped the space in front of him with the space where Shanks was located.
“Nani!!!”
Shanks was still confused by Kazi’s actions a moment ago, but the next moment, Kazi’s fist had already made an intimate and friendly greeting with Shanks’ face.
Bang!!!
Shanks was punched in the eye by Kazi, and his whole body flew out directly.
Flying out more than ten meters, Shanks skidded another few meters along the ground.
“Kazi, you bastard, you actually went back on your word!”
Shanks stood up, baring his teeth, and while clutching his eye socket with his remaining right hand, he accused Kazi angrily.
Kazi shrugged his hands, looking very wronged, and said: “Hey, hey, we agreed that after taking a step back, we would decide the winner in one move.”
“I didn’t say how long after that we had to use that move!”
“An hour later is fine, the next second is also fine.
You can only blame yourself for not paying attention.”
Shanks was left speechless by Kazi, and besides, Kazi hadn’t even used Armament Haki; it was just a simple punch.
Shanks looked disheveled, but in reality, there wasn’t much physical damage—it was just that the damage to his intelligence was greater.
“Well, that’s true, I suppose.”
Kazi’s words were flawless, and Shanks couldn’t find anything to refute them.
Indeed, he hadn’t expected that Kazi could not only swap himself but also swap him right in front of Kazi.
This sneaky guy, they’d been fighting for a day, and he hadn’t used it like that once.
Was it all for this one moment?
“Hey, Kalmande, did you save any wine and meat for your dear Captain?”
Kalmande hadn’t expected Kazi and the others to stop just like that.
He had been too busy eating and drinking himself to remember to save any for Kazi.
In his panic, he grabbed the orange juice from Luffy’s hand and handed it over.
“Captain, you need to replenish your vitamins after intense exercise.
This is what I specifically saved for you.
How about that?
I’m quite thoughtful, right?”
Before Kazi could speak, Luffy blew up.
“You bastard, that’s my juice, give it back to me!”
There was no other way; in that instant, Kalmande could only snatch from Luffy, who had the highest success rate.
The others were all alcoholics, and they protected their drinks more tightly than anyone.
“Well, well, don’t be angry, Luffy.
How about I treat you to some meat?”
After saying that, Kalmande took advantage of Luffy’s distraction to quickly pick up the meat from Luffy’s plate and hand it to him.
“Hee hee hee, alright, then I’ll forgive you.”
“Meat, meat, meat, meat!”
Luffy swallowed the meat in a flash, then looked down at his plate…
Huh?
Where’s my meat???
Beckman and the others were speechless.
No wonder they were on the same ship; they were all sneaky, even scamming a seven-year-old child.
The Red Hair Pirates were originally supposed to set sail yesterday, but because of the arrival of Kazi and Kalmande, they stayed here for another three days.
That’s right, they fought for a day and held a banquet for two days.
Luffy was too young, so drinking juice for several days in a row meant he had achieved juice freedom.
“Eh!!!” “You said you are Whitebeard’s son?” “Are you a newly appointed commander on his ship?”
Shanks had already drunk quite a bit of wine and was looking tipsy.
When Kazi briefly mentioned his past during their chat earlier, Shanks instantly sobered up by half.
After all, that was an old rival.
When he was on Captain Roger’s ship, he had always been fighting or having banquets with the Whitebeard Pirates.
Now that he was on his own, Whitebeard remained a high mountain in front of those of them who were pirates.
“Hahaha, no.” “I am his biological son.” “It’s just that I haven’t met this father of mine yet, and he doesn’t know of my existence either.”
“Didn’t I just say?
I lived with my mother, and I had never left the East Blue before I was eighteen.”
Kazi’s expression was relaxed; he didn’t feel any pressure at all about revealing his background.
Was he afraid that Whitebeard’s enemies would hunt him down?
Or afraid that they would capture him to threaten Whitebeard?
His current strength was already outstanding.
Once his Observation Haki evolved, he learned Advanced Conquerors Haki, and his Devil Fruit ability was developed even deeper, he felt that he wouldn’t be any weaker than Whitebeard himself.
“Nani!!” “Whitebeard actually has a biological son!!!”
Just now, when Kazi said he lived and trained on the mountain with his mother and was Whitebeard’s son, he had thought it was just a godson Whitebeard had picked up when he was wandering around the East Blue.
After all, Kazi’s potential was limitless; it was only natural that Whitebeard would take a liking to him.
He hadn’t expected the truth to be even more explosive than he thought.
That Whitebeard, who spent his whole life collecting sons and looking for a sense of family, hadn’t actually found his own biological son.
Just thinking about it made Shanks want to laugh.
