He lived up to his father's expectations and started his own transformation. Marco felt that there were some things that he should take responsibility for himself.
If you take more care of your father, you can live a few more years.
And he was indeed angry. He basically grew up on Moby Dick and had always been with his father.
After all, he is the captain of the first team. These people didn't believe in themselves at the last moment. That's so bad.
Compared with the Revolutionary Army and the Red Head Pirates, our fleet is indeed inferior.
So he began a long speech, explaining the truth to everyone and also starting to set rules.
With Dad's support, the captains below did not dare to resist.
At this moment, the captains were still immersed in the joy that their father was alive, and they were not averse to Marco's lecture.
There are some ambitious people among them, but the vast majority of them truly admire their dad.
Whitebeard looked at the children being scolded by Marco with complicated eyes.
Although he knew that they were also worried about him, this time he chose to let Marco talk to them.
When he glanced at the children, he also glanced at Teach.
He still felt bothered by what Noah had said to him. This was his son. Tiqi had been with him for many years, and if Noah had not been his savior, he would have punched him long ago.
After listening to it, overwhelmed by the gratitude, it is impossible to say that I had no thoughts in my heart.
That first punch should have been a little more devastating based on Teach’s previous strength, but he behaved the same as the people around him.
Some things cannot stand scrutiny, and many scenes from the past were brought up.
Chapter 524: The Means of Being Seen
Many times in battle, Teach fought desperately with the enemy, but he never suffered any serious injuries. All the injuries were minor and he could heal by bandaging himself.
He also has a good relationship with everyone on the ship, and he appears whenever anyone is sad.
The only thing he cared about was some treasures, especially the devil fruits. He was laughed at by everyone, but he didn't get angry.
I had planned to give some fruit to Teach, but he refused to eat it and gave it to other brothers.
If these were not a conspiracy, this would definitely be a perfect son.
But given the qualities of a pirate... would there be no flaws?
But he didn't tell anyone, not even Marco, and he would observe it slowly when he had time in the future.
After Marco finished his lecture, Whitebeard continued to comfort everyone.
“The Red Hair’s territory really owes me a big favor this time for healing my body.
From now on, our Whitebeard Pirates and Red Hair will be a brotherly group.
If they have any problems, we will definitely take their place. This is the promise of the men on the sea."
Then maybe because they had just come back and I had given them a beating, the atmosphere was not very good.
Marco suggested holding another banquet to celebrate his father's recovery.
Everyone agreed with this suggestion. They fought, but they were really happy. The way pirates expressed their joy was very simple: hold a party!
The temper of people on the sea is the same as their weather. After a strong storm, there will be sunny days. They don’t bear grudges at all about being beaten.
Teach was one of the people who helped very enthusiastically, sometimes carrying a wine barrel, sometimes catching a wild animal and roasting meat.
There is no trace of a conspirator in him at all, he is just an ordinary and enthusiastic pirate boss.
During this period, countless people thanked and apologized to Teach.
In the early days when Whitebeard was away, Teach tried to calm down and comfort many people. In the later days when emotions exploded, he also tried to stop everyone from being impulsive.
Looking back now, this big brother did a very good job. Except for his not very strong strength, everything else is perfect.
In short, when his father was away, Teach did a lot of work in private and showed some of his talents.
Originally, these were some preliminary steps he took before deciding to inherit the estate after he thought Whitebeard had a hard time surviving.
In the past, he was an unknown member of Thatch's crew, but he showed a little more dedication some time ago.
Everyone noticed his hidden gem, and they were even waiting for the moment when the battle came and he would break through and save everyone.
The result... is bullshit.
Sachi was also very happy to see this, as he had a very good person under his command. He was also very proud.
But this is not what Blackbeard wants at the moment.
In the case of the return of the old man, he didn't want to be too conspicuous.
I could only casually agree with everyone who praised him and kept saying that it was all thanks to Thatch and Marco, and that he had only done some insignificant things.
The quality of humility was praised again, and he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead only after everyone had left.
Don't attract more attention at this time, it's too dangerous.
Little did he know that outside the crowd there was a pair of eyes secretly observing him.
"Is it really possible?"
Whitebeard muttered to himself, feeling a little confused.
The banquet started, everyone was singing and dancing, eating and drinking. Some people even started fighting, and everyone gathered around to cheer and watch.
Sometimes it is necessary for pirates to have a good relationship when fighting with each other, otherwise it is easy to get angry. Joz and others are now laughing wantonly.
The pressure was too great before. They had all the strength but could do nothing. Now they can vent.
Dad's health had always been like that. Every time they came to visit him after a while, they could sense his aging and the passing of his life.
Some older people have already forgotten the demeanor of the world's strongest man when they first met their father.
Now that I have seen a few more points, I am even more excited.
These people wanted to celebrate their joy with alcohol, and wanted to have a few more drinks with their father, but Marco stopped them all because he was still worried about his father's health.
This made Whitebeard very depressed, he really wanted to drink.
"If you want to drink, drink with me. Then you can knock me down."
Marco's domineering attitude caused everyone to force him to drink. Although no one knew why Marco had such a change, no one minded.
This is good. Some people with foresight think that this is a good thing for the entire pirate group.
The Whitebeard Pirates need a successor, a core figure who can be entrusted with this mission.
Teach hid among the toasting crowd. He was a little jealous of Marco's treatment at the moment. It was obvious that Whitebeard was paving the way for him.
But it doesn't matter, victory will eventually belong to me. What this world needs is an ambitious hero, not another Four Emperors who are just playing house.
After all the ups and downs, even a cunning man like Blackbeard got a little emotional, and he expressed some of his anger by toasting.
The fire of ambition in his eyes was about to burst out, but fortunately, Sachi woke him up when he tapped his shoulder. An honest big brother is back again.
Whitebeard didn't know whether he was dazzled or had a biased mind, he could only sigh silently.
After the toast, Teach took advantage of the lively atmosphere and started to jump up again.
I casually said that it turns out that the Red Hair Pirates' medical capabilities are so strong. So if any of the brothers is in poor health in the future, can we ask for help?
The sound was so small that it was just heard by a few captains nearby.
Then their eyes lit up. The status of the ship doctor in this sea was very high, and the medical skills that could bring the dead back to life were beyond their imagination.
With the alcohol on his mind and the instigation of the dark hand, he ran to his father to ask about this matter.
Boom!
He flew out and hung on a tree, being laughed at by everyone below.
"You little guys, you are not allowed to go to Red Hair about this matter. Anyone who goes there will be slapping me, White Beard, in the face.
It took a very precious treasure, the only one in the ocean, to save me.
So even I have great respect for the courage of the red-haired kid."
As soon as these words were spoken, the others immediately raised their glasses and said they wanted to toast Red Hair.
Kula la la la la la la. Whitebeard laughed wildly and drank another cup with everyone.
He was happy to see his sons having fun, but at the same time he still felt a little heavy in his heart.
He was able to become one of the Four Dead Emperors and live on the sea for 70 years, so he is certainly not lacking in wisdom.
Regarding the question just now, he was bothered by what Tiqi always said and did intentionally or unintentionally.
He didn't want to hurt Tiqi without any evidence, so he made a decision silently.
Chapter 525: Teach, Eat a Fruit
After the banquet, everyone returned to the Moby Dick.
Sitting on his throne, Whitebeard said seriously.
“Even after my body recovers this time, I won’t live for many years.
I am very disappointed with your performance during this period."
Everyone lowered their heads, feeling ashamed.
“But there are two guys here who I feel performed well.
One is Marco's decisiveness and choice, which everyone can see.
I love each of you equally.
But when a ship is without a captain, someone has to step up.
If Marco can gain your respect, let him be the captain.
If you can't, just compete among yourselves. We are all brothers and sisters. I hope you won't do anything to make me sad."
After saying this, everyone waved their hands to indicate that they didn't know.
Marco performed very well this time. He was able to take his father to Red Hair for treatment immediately. This alone was beyond the whole ship. He had won everyone's recognition for being able to withstand such pressure.
As for ambitious people...none of these squad captains are.
They are mainly connected by family ties. Xiao Ma Ge is not the oldest, but he has been on the ship for quite a while.
His combat power is also very strong, and his fruit ability is also very powerful. The Phoenix Fruit has saved many people, and everyone respects him.
It’s just that he lacked a little domineering and prestige in the past, but he has undergone a big change after coming back this time.
After everyone agreed, Whitebeard talked about the second person who made him feel good.
"Well done, Tikki."
Everyone thought about it and agreed. Even the captains who always judged people by their fighting power had to admit that this guy had something.
Especially Thatch, when he heard his father praising his men, he felt even more proud and patted Teach on the shoulder.
"Well done, dad thinks highly of you this time. You've made great progress, Tiqi. You must take care of your brother in the future, hahahaha."
He completely ignored the look in the other person's eyes that wanted to stab him.
When everyone was happy, only the Teach brothers were still cold inside. On the surface, they pretended to be very happy but at a loss.
Since part of it has been exposed, he should just accept it. If Whitebeard can give him a chance this time, he can naturally get some rights or something.
With power, he might have an advantage in collecting the Dark-Dark Fruit without exposing his own ambitions.
Whitebeard spoke.
"Teach, you don't have any fruit abilities yet, right?"
This question made Tiqi feel creepy.
Dad wouldn't give him a devil fruit, otherwise he would be completely doomed.
You have to find ways to reject this suggestion, otherwise you will regret it to death.
