However, Qiao Zi also understood Ji Lingyun's thoughts. He had made the Diamond Fruit sound so unbearable so that he could accept it without any burden. This made him very touched, but it was also because of this that he could not accept it. This was because he felt that as the youngest member of the White Beard Pirates, Ji Lingyun needed the fruit's ability the most.
" Little Ling Yun," Qiao Zi continued," you might not understand how precious it is. Let me tell you…"
" Aiya, I say, Qiao Zi, you're usually quite a manly person. Why are you so wishy-washy now? Just tell me if you want it. If you don't want it, I'll give it to someone else or throw it away.”
Ji Lingyun's head was buzzing from Qiao Zi's words, so he called out very loudly.
These words rendered Joze speechless. In the end, he could only look at the white-bearded man for help.
The white-bearded man was also surprised by Ji Lingyun's decision. He stared into Ji Lingyun's eyes seriously and saw what he wanted to see from Ji Lingyun's eyes.
"Since Little Ling Yun gave it to you, you should accept it," the white-bearded man said to Qiao Zi.”
"Ah?"
Qiao Zi was instantly dumbfounded. He originally wanted White Beard to persuade Ji Lingyun to take the Diamond Fruit back, but he did not expect White Beard to actually let him accept it. The contrast was too great.
"What do you mean, Qiao Zi? Father told you to accept it. You're really lucky to get such a good Demon Fruit for nothing.”
"That's right, Qiaozi, take it. Little Ling Yun doesn't like it, but don't tell me you don't like it?”
"If you don't like it, you can give it to me. I don't mind.”
"I think I'm a more suitable candidate. Why doesn't Little Ling Yun give it to me? Don't tell me I don't play with him usually?"
" I think so…"
The members of the White Beard Pirates were all laughing and joking with Qiao Zi. Although many of them were envious of Qiao Zi for obtaining the diamond fruit, no one had any other thoughts. They were all sincerely wishing him well. The White Beard Pirates 'belief that they were a family on the ship was not something that could be casually said.
Listening to the noise around him, Qiao Zi's heart was as warm as spring. He sincerely said to Ji Lingyun,""Little Ling Yun, thank you. I won't say anything else. In the future, no matter what happens, as long as you call out, I will do anything.”
"We're a family. There's no need to thank each other, isn't there?" Ji Lingyun smiled.”
Qiao Zi was stunned, but he was even more moved. The white-bearded man laughed heartily."Little Ling Yun is right. We are a family. There is no need for formalities between families.”
Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed. In this half a year, Ji Lingyun had devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation. If there was anyone in the White Beard Pirates who was the most active in cultivation, it would definitely be Ji Lingyun.
The White Beard Pirates were all shocked by Ji Lingyun's hard work. It was hard to imagine that an eight-year-old child could endure loneliness and spend more than half of his day training his body and sword.
Most of the time, Ji Lingyun was practicing his sword. Although it was called sword practice, it was actually very simple. Basically, it was the most basic skills such as chopping, stabbing, and drawing the sword.
Ji Lingyun cultivated day after day. Even the white-bearded man was shocked. They didn't understand why Ji Lingyun had to work so hard. Even if he wanted to become stronger, he didn't need to be so crazy.
Of course, they didn't understand why Ji Lingyun was working so hard. It was because Ji Lingyun knew the future trend. Before long, the era of the great pirates would be ushered in. At that time, the sea would be unprecedentedly crazy and lively. Countless geniuses would appear out of thin air and occupy a place on the vast sea.
No one wanted to lag behind others, especially Ji Lingyun. He even wanted to have a place in the future, so he had to have powerful strength. Therefore, he could not waste any time because no one would give him time in the future.
Actually, under White Beard's wings, Ji Lingyun could live a good life for more than 20 years. However, this kind of life was not what he wanted. He also did not want to be helpless against the navy in the future. Therefore, for the future, he had to work hard from now on.
However, in this half a year, the appearance of a person immediately made Ji Lingyun feel bad. This person was Marshall D. Teach, who later became the famous captain of the Blackbeard Pirates, Blackbeard.
Ji Lingyun, who had seen One Piece before, knew very well that Blackbeard, who had just joined the White Beard Pirates, would become the main culprit behind the White Beard Pirates 'destruction in the future. However, although he knew everything, he could not change the outcome of Blackbeard joining the White Beard Pirates.
White Beard laughed and said to Ji Lingyun,"Gulalala, Little Ling Yun, come here. Let me introduce you to our new pirate partner, Tiki.”White Beard called Ji Lingyun over and introduced Tiki to him.
Ji Lingyun looked at the young man in his twenties in front of him. He had a slightly plump figure, a slight beard, and a smile on his face. He looked like a harmless good person. However, Ji Lingyun knew very well what kind of storms this man in front of him would stir up in the future and what kind of treasonous things he would do. Therefore, Ji Lingyun did not have a good impression of him at all.
At this moment, Blackbeard, who was also Tiki, had no idea what Ji Lingyun thought of him. He was already surprised enough to see a child in the White Beard Pirates. Now that he found out that White Beard had specially introduced him to Ji Lingyun, he could undoubtedly tell what kind of position this child held in the White Beard Pirates 'hearts.
Tiki naturally didn't dare to be careless in front of such a popular person with a white beard. He smiled at Ji Lingyun and said,"" Hello, Little Ling Yun. My name is Marshall D. Teach. I'm very happy…"
"Don't call me Little Ling Yun."
Before Tiki could finish his sentence, Ji Lingyun interrupted him and said with a serious expression,"My name is Edward Ji Lingyun. You can call me Ling Yun, but don't call me Little Ling Yun.”
