White-bearded Edward Newgate's name resounded throughout the world. Even the songs sung by children all over the world described him as " scarier than a monster." He could unleash the power of the Tremor Fruit to an unparalleled extent, and was even believed to have the power to destroy the world.
Just like Big Mom and Kaido, he was once a member of the Locks Pirates. At that time, he was already extremely powerful.
After the destruction of the Locks Pirates, he formed his own White Beard Pirates. In the previous era, they were known as the Three Great Pirates along with the Pirate King, Gale D. Roger, and the Pirate Commander, Golden Lion Shiki.
At that time, White Beard and Roger had also become good friends, so the members of both pirate groups knew each other.
"I was wondering who it was, but it turns out to be the brat on Roger's ship!”
White Beard stood at the bow of the Mobydick and looked down at Giotto in the distance."I remember there's a red-haired and a red-nosed kid. Are they with you now?”
Although his tone was not serious at the moment, the prestige that he naturally emitted still made Giotto have to be cautious.
"Shanks and Baki have their own journey, and I'm not a pirate anymore. After the captain disbanded the pirates, I abandoned my identity as a pirate.”
Giotto took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
"It doesn't matter if you're a pirate or not. As long as you're born in the sea, everyone is a child of the sea, and you're no exception.”
The white-bearded man smiled and then changed his tone."Gulalala, did you come here today to save that brat who caused trouble in my territory?”
"He is indeed a troublemaker, but he is also my family.”Giotto nodded and answered without hesitation.
"Family? It seems that you have grown up. With such faith, you shouldn't have boarded Roger's boat.”
At this moment, White Beard suddenly extended his hand to Giotto and said with a serious expression,""Come and be my son. In this way, I can no longer pursue what happened before. After all, there are no conflicts between family members.”
Hearing this, Giotto's heart instantly turned spartan.
He had thought of everything that could happen when White Beard appeared, but he had not expected him to suddenly do this.
He knew that White Beard was a famous " child recognition maniac." Who would have thought that this would happen to him?
So what should he do in this situation?
It was as if he could solve anything by calling him "father". Moreover, he would have the White Beard Pirates as his backer in the future. The development of the Pengali family would definitely be smooth sailing.
However, Peng Geli didn't seem to have the habit of acknowledging a foster father, right?
"Ding! Special mission activated. Host, please choose!”
Suddenly, the system's voice sounded in Giotto's mind.
"1. Acknowledge the white-bearded man as your father. Reward: Heavenly Halberd (Special effect, targeted at killing foster father. Success rate increased to 100%.)”
" 2. Refuse White Beard. Reward: Peng Geli's Ring Unsealed.”
Upon hearing this mission choice, Giotto was a little hysterical. He was obviously Pengri the First, but if he chose the first one, he would directly evolve into the number one fierce general of the three kingdoms, Lu Fengxian.
The Heavenly Halberd actually had a special effect that could kill his foster father. Did this mean that if he obtained this weapon, he would be able to call his enemy father first and then instantly kill them?
Furthermore, the success rate was 100%. In other words, if he called White Beard 'father', the strongest man in the world would be no different washi under the halberd?
But this was too…
"I'm sorry, but as the leader of the Pengelie family, I will not submit to anyone, not even you!”
Giotto's gaze instantly became firm. He was the first Pengali, the leader of the Pengali family. If even he submitted to someone else, what choice would the members of his family make?
The moment he made this decision, the big space ring on his hand emitted an orange light. Soon, the ring changed. The words "Vongola Family"(Pengeli Family) were engraved in the center, and six or six gems of various colors were inlaid around it.
As the ring changed, Giotto also felt that the Death Energy Fire in his body had become much stronger than before. His strength had undergone a qualitative change from a second ago.
At the same time, on the faraway Saiken Island, Nakel's injured Ring of Clear had also turned into a yellow hexagonal gemstone with a golden edge. The emblem of the Pengri family and the image of the sun were engraved on the gemstone.
The unsealing of the ring also symbolized the change in the strength of Giotto and his guardian. The only pity was that he only had Nacker, the guardian of the sun...
"You have good eyes. You are indeed the little brat on Roger's ship. This sea will belong to you in the future. But…"
White Beard stomped the ground with the Cloud Cut in his hand, and a fierce Overlord's domineering aura whistled out, instantly assaulting the spirits of Giotto and the others."But now, it's still my era! Since you rejected my good intentions, then this matter can't be settled easily. The favor you mentioned is far from enough!”
The white beard's domineering aura was extremely terrifying. Even a bloodthirsty prince like Belfigore felt a wave of dizziness at this moment, but he quickly recovered.
As for Giotto and Liboen, their expressions did not change at all, as if they were not affected by the other party's domineering look at all.
Seeing the other party's calm appearance, the white-bearded man admired him even more. Unfortunately, the other party was unwilling to acknowledge him as his father, so he naturally could not force it.
"White Beard!"
At this moment, Giotto suddenly took a step forward. His body suddenly erupted with an extremely tyrannical aura. Since he had directly withstood White Beard's Conqueror's domineering aura, he said,"According to what you said, we are all children of the sea, so let's follow the rules of the sea! I have no intention of starting a war with the White Beard Pirates, but I definitely have to protect Belfigore. Since you want to maintain your dignity and vent the anger in your heart, let me be your opponent!”
Upon hearing this, Marko and the others 'expressions changed. They looked at Giotto with a strange expression. They did not expect this guy to say such words to their father!
Was this a challenge to the strongest man in the world?
