The gourmet among pirates

"I'm sorry, Dad, I'm not going to listen to you this time!"

After smiling, Marco held the healing factor potion in his hand and said to Carter:

"not enough!"

"If we, the Whitebeard Pirates, are to charge forward and attack Mary Joa, a healing potion alone is not enough."

"Didn't you say there are three of these things? Then bring them all! By the way, get me the recipe for making this thing too. Since Vegapunk can make this thing, I still don't believe it. Well, I, Marco, can’t replicate this thing even with the recipe.”

After cursing for a while, Marco continued to Carter: "When you give me everything I want, our Whitebeard Pirates will capture the high-altitude holy land of Mariejoia."

For a spy chief.

Marco would not believe it honestly.

Ha ha!

Healing factor potion, you said there are only three, there are only three?

Besides, even if there are really only three, it’s not too much to ask you to get them all!

The most powerful Whitebeard Pirates in the world today are worthy of this price.

As for how Carter would obtain these things, it was no longer within Marco's consideration.

······

Marco's words made Carter's blood surge.

It also made Marco's image in her eyes instantly look hateful.

Three healing factor potions, as well as the formula of the healing factor potion.

This bastard really dares to ask for it!

Is it really a healing factor potion? It’s Chinese cabbage. Can I have as many tubes as I want?

Not to mention three.

Even with Her Highness Elizabeth's power and status, I'm afraid she won't be able to get a second healing factor potion.

But don't wait for her to start scolding?

Behind Marco, a man with a gloomy face and an angry white beard raised his big hand like a leaf fan without hesitation and swung it hard towards Marco's head.

Whoosh!

Marco was already prepared before Whitebeard's slap fell.

The moment Whitebeard raised his palm, he jumped out quickly, dodging Whitebeard's "sneak attack".

Seeing that Marco had dodged the slap, Whitebeard said angrily: "You bastard, if you dare to stop me, you still dare to hide. If you hide again, I will beat you for three days and three nights!"

Marco's Phoenix Fruit gives him unparalleled resilience.

Man as his name suggests.

With the accompanying ability of the Phoenix Fruit, apart from Diamond Jozi, Marco is the most resistant being among the Whitebeard Pirates.

therefore.

When it came to beating up Marco, Whitebeard really showed no mercy.

If Marco dares to hide next, Whitebeard will really beat this disobedient boy for three days and three nights.

snort!

I'm not dead yet, and these brats dare not listen to me.

After waiting, it will be fine.

"Tch, Dad, you think I'm stupid. If I stand there and let you beat me, even my Phoenix Fruit will be too much to bear, okay?"

"But it's useless even if you catch me this time."

"If Qiaozi and the others knew that I didn't bring this potion back, they would fight me tooth and nail."

"Even if you take me back this time, the worst thing I can do is bring someone here next time."

"We, the Whitebeard Pirates, cannot let go of the medicine that can cure your injuries."

"Wait, Dad, we can't fight there..."

After once again dodging Whitebeard's powerful slap, Marco said sternly to Whitebeard: "Dad, don't always think of us as children who need the protection of your wings!"

"We have grown up, and now it is time for us to honor you."

"It's not like we haven't fought against the World Government before. If that guy can afford the price I mentioned, as your son, we won't give up. The worst we can do is fight to the death against the World Government."

·······

Ok?

Carter, who originally wanted to yell at Marco, saw a strange light flashing in his eyes, and then he quickly began to think.

For the safety of his "family", Whitebeard gave up the opportunity that was right in front of him to return to the top.

And Marco and the others are the same, willing to fight for the World Government for Whitebeard.

All this allowed Carter, who had been rejected by the white-bearded Edward Newgate, to see a glimmer of opportunity again.

thought here.

There was a flash of struggle in Carter's eyes, but in the end with a sigh, he took out a spherical metal from his arms.

Different from ordinary metal balls, this metal ball has a silver-white ring logo in the center.

The ring seemed to be a warning, and there was a button that seemed to be a switch.

Looking at the spherical metal in his hand, Carter's eyes flashed with relief.

Maybe Her Royal Highness Elizabeth had anticipated this and allowed herself to come with the "pure gold"!

He sighed faintly.

Carter spoke again, but this time her tone was a little colder.

"enough."

After a cold snort made Whitebeard and Marco pause, Carter reached out and threw the spherical metal ball towards Marco.

Then he continued: "I said, there may not be a third healing factor potion in this world. Even the Five Old Stars cannot get you three healing factor potions."

Looking at Marco, whose expression changed slightly as he spoke.

Carter pointed at the metal ball that was thrown into the air by her: "However, although I don't have three healing factor potions, I have something better."

something better?

Is it the metal ball in front of me?

Marco, who was a little puzzled, stretched out his other hand and easily caught the metal ball in mid-air.

He asked Carter in confusion: "The better thing you said is this ball?"

"No." Carter shook his head and said, "To be precise, it's the thing in this metal ball."

The thing inside the metal ball?

What is that?

After flipping the metal ball, Marco was not surprised to see the ring in the center of the metal ball.

Is this the switch button that turns on the ball?

Although he was curious about what was inside the metal ball, Marco did not press the button recklessly.

A gift from an agent chief.

Marco didn't dare to press randomly.

What if that button wasn't the button to open the metal ball, but the button to detonate the wall of dynamite rock behind Carter?

So if he rashly pressed the button and detonated the entire wall of explosive rock, wouldn't it be a complete failure?

The power of dynamite rock is no joke.

Even if Marco had the terrifying resilience given by the Phoenix Fruit, he still didn't want to be blown away by so many explosive rocks.

He just has abnormal resilience, but it's not that he doesn't feel pain.

So many dynamite rocks, if they really explode.

The process of recovering from this kind of injury would hurt Marco to death.

"What's in here?"

Faced with Marco's question, Carter said calmly: "Pure gold!"

Um? ? ? ?

“Pure gold????”

After hearing Carter's name, Marco subconsciously widened his eyes.

As the chief ship's doctor of the Whitebeard Pirates, Marco's knowledge is not limited.

In order to become a top doctor, he can easily cure his father's injuries.

Marco read through countless information and ancient books.

Among them, there happens to be one that contains information about pure gold, an artificial metal that is said to make people immortal.

However, has the immortality of pure gold disappeared long ago with the death of the scientists who created it?

Why is there such unscientific stuff in this world?

But the next second, Marco, recalling Carter's identity, shut up again.

Yes.

This time, the person who traded with them was a high-level person from the World Government.

Not sure which one of the five old stars it is?

Pure gold, a legendary metal, may not be found elsewhere.

But there is not necessarily no inventory in the world government.

This is not.

The metal ball in his hand now, isn't it the metal that has disappeared in the legend?

Marco was also a little curious about pure gold, a metal that was said to be able to make people live forever, and whether the legend was true.

Not to mention Marco.

But when the words pure gold echoed in the cave.

Even Whitebeard's eyes widened.

This thing "pure gold"? Does it really exist?

They looked at the shocked two people.

This time, there was no sense of pride in Carter's heart. Instead, he felt heartbroken and unable to breathe.

This is pure gold!

If possible, she would definitely not want to trade this with the Whitebeard Pirates.

However, she didn't hesitate for long.

Now that the things have been taken out, there is no need for her to make such a gesture to make others laugh.

"Yes, this forbidden ball contains a pure gold ring."

"You must have heard the rumor that pure gold can make people immortal."

Marco raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said, "Is this true?"

as a doctor.

The existence of pure gold really challenges his worldview.

"Of course it's true. Otherwise, why did so many strong men break their heads just to get him?"

Carter heard the words and sneered, "According to research, a special metal like pure gold will emit a special substance all the time, transforming its carry, so that it can carry the body forever."

"Therefore, in addition to making people immortal, if pure gold is worn all the time, it can also solidify a person's physical condition and keep it in its current state."

"If Whitebeard drinks the healing factor potion and then wears a specially made pure gold ring, then he can maintain his physical condition at its peak."

"I think you know what this means!"

How terrifying is a white beard who can maintain peak condition at all times.

Of course Marco and others knew.

It was precisely because of this that Marco's eyes subconsciously became hot when he looked at the metal ball in his hand.

If pure gold could really do this, its value would be much greater than a few healing factor potions.

After taking another look at the metal ball in his hand, Marco deliberately joked: "Is this metal ball pure gold? Don't press the button, and what awaits you is a big explosion."

"Haha!" Carter sneered, "If I want you to die, I just need to wait quietly for the big purge plan to unfold and watch your defeat. Why take the risk and spend so much money."

At this time, Whitebeard suddenly said: "She didn't lie."

As early as when Carter said the words "pure gold", Whitebeard aroused his top level of knowledge and domineering, observing Carter's every move.

Including heartbeat and mood changes.

So Whitebeard knew very well that Carter was not lying this time.

Since I'm not lying, then the metal ball inside is really pure gold.

With the endorsement of a white beard.

Marco also felt a little relieved.

As long as it's not a trap.

Since Dad said Carter didn't lie, there's nothing to hesitate about.

Just when Marco wanted to reach out and press the button in the metal ball.

This time.

Instead, Carter spoke up.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. The ominous rumors about pure gold are not groundless. Carrying this thing will indeed bring the shadow of death."

"If you press this button and lose the sealing ball's aura, the next moment, something unknown may befall the Whitebeard Pirates."

Marco was about to press the button to open the metal ball, but his fingers froze in mid-air.

He frowned and looked at Carter and said, "What do you mean?"

"Ha ha."

After sneering, Carter said: "It literally means that the breath of pure gold seems to attract some kind of ominousness. If you sail on the sea, you will definitely be attacked by giant sea kings. Even on the island, There is no way to avoid this fate.”

"We also lost a lot of people because of this at first, and then we slowly came up with some rules."

"But even if pure gold has some flaws, it is still extremely valuable. Its immortality alone has made countless people crazy."

"Replace other conditions with pure gold, and it can be said that you have made a lot of money."

Marco did not deny this.

To be honest, even if the pure gold was flawed, Marco knew that they had made a lot of money this time.

Healing factor potion + pure gold.

The effects of these two things are superimposed, and the effect of one plus one is greater than both.

It can even be said that these two things together are far more important to the Whitebeard Pirates than three healing factor potions.

As for carrying pure gold, will it cause attacks from those Neptunes?

Marco really didn't care about this.

When did the Whitebeard Pirates ever fear the likes of Neptune?

Even if it is a giant sea king, if it encounters Whitebeard, it will only be an extra meal.

Thinking of this, Marco no longer hesitated.

He immediately pressed the button in his hand.

next second.

Dazzling golden light burst out from the forbidden ball.

At the same time, a silent wave spread rapidly through the sea water.
