One Piece: Three Fruits, Starting with the Dark-Dark Fruit

Whitebeard said angrily,

"You mean I have to go there again in person? What do you think I am!?"

In Whitebeard's view, if he were to go to Shanks again after having been rejected once, what dignity would he have left in this ocean?

Long wiped the saliva from Whitebeard's mouth that spilled on his face and said,

"Newgate, you don't have to be so excited. I don't mean to ask you to go again."

Whitebeard frowned and said in a deep voice,

"What do you mean? Send someone to send a letter to Red and arrange a meeting place?"

Long shook his head and said,

"No, if two of the Four Emperors are active at the same time, we will be too conspicuous and the news will easily leak out. So why don't I go and find Red Hair first? I think my identity should be enough for Red Hair."

Whitebeard raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He thought Long's method was good, but he couldn't bring himself to agree with it.

After so many years of training, Long's ability to read people's expressions has greatly improved. He saw what Whitebeard was thinking, so he smiled and said,

"Newgate, I think you and Red Hair should both take a step back. Red Hair is one of the Four Emperors after all. You can't always treat him as a junior. He may have just gained more powerful power, and he is young, so he is a little carried away. Let's understand each other."

Long gave Whitebeard a way out. Whitebeard understood this and snorted coldly.

"so be it!"

Marco kindly reminded,

"Mr. Long, Hongfa is very ambitious now, and it's hard to figure out. You must be careful when you come into contact with him."

Long nodded and said,

"I know, but don't worry too much. I'm not the only one coming this time. I'm also one of my army captains here with me. He's very powerful."

Whitebeard asked,

"You mean that kid named Sabo?"

"No, Sabo is still staying at the base. I met this army commander when I was traveling. He just joined our Revolutionary Army not long ago."

"Oh? Isn't he still a newcomer? You gave him the position of army leader right after he joined. Do you trust him so much?"

A confident smile appeared on Long's face, and he said,

"Of course, we got along very well. He and I are like-minded people, and his character is very reliable!"

Whitebeard became interested and couldn't help asking,

"To be praised so highly by a man like you, he must not be an unknown person. What's his name?"

Long smiled mysteriously and said,

"Newgate, you really thought wrong this time. Not everyone craves fame. Although this person has great power, he is very low-key. But I think his fame will soon spread across the sea, and then you will know."

Whitebeard didn't ask any more questions after hearing this. He picked up a wine jug and threw it to Long. Long held it with one hand, then took a big gulp and turned around and said,

"Without further delay, I will leave now. Wait for my good news."

......

On the Red Force,

Shanks, who was dozing on the deck, suddenly opened his eyes, and a red light flashed in his eyes.

Beckman, who was standing by the side of the ship, put out the cigarette in his hand and turned to look at Shanks.

Shanks narrowed his eyes and said,

"It's been really busy lately, someone is coming again..."

Beckman said,

"The Butterfly Pirates are about to run into that group."

Shanks nodded and said,

"They are a group of guys wearing cloaks. They don't fly a pirate flag and they don't look like pirates."

Shanks and Beckman both possess the ability to foresee the future. In the scenes they foresaw, all the members of the Butterfly Pirates fainted in an instant. It was obvious that the other party was a strong man who could control the Conqueror's Haki freely.

The Butterfly Pirates were originally a group of weak pirates who were protected by the Red Hair Pirates. Naturally, they had no power to resist an enemy with the Conqueror's Haki.

However, the other party had no intention of harming the members of the Butterfly Pirates. He merely used the Conqueror's Haki to intimidate them.

Shanks slowly stood up and said to Rockstar,

"Rockstar, go inform the Butterfly Pirates and tell them to get away immediately if they encounter any suspicious ships."

Upon hearing this, Rockstar immediately went to the cabin and used Den Den Mushi to contact the Butterfly Pirates.

Beckman said,

"Want to go find them?"

"No, their target should be us, let's wait for them to come over by themselves."

After saying that, Shanks leaned back in his chair again and began to rest with his eyes closed. Beckman said no more, lit another cigarette, and looked at the sea calmly.

After a while, Beckman said softly,

"coming."

Upon hearing this, Hongo and others immediately came to the side of the ship. Under their gaze, the figure of a large ship emerged from the sea level not far away.

Just as Shanks said, there were people wearing cloaks standing at the bow.

Beckman told Hongo and the others not to act hastily, and just watched as the other party docked the boat next to the Red Force.

Then, the two figures standing at the bow leaped and landed on the deck of the Red Force.

The two men slowly pulled down their cloaks. One of them looked at Beckman with a smile and said,

"You must be Vice Captain Beckman, right? It's our first meeting. Please allow me to introduce myself. I..."

Beckman interrupted directly,

"Monkey D. Dragon, the commander-in-chief of the Revolutionary Army."

The smile on Long's face remained unchanged. Accompanying him was a middle-aged man with short black hair. He had his eyes closed and had two hideous scars on his forehead, which looked very scary.

When Beckman looked at him, he seemed to sense something and said,

"My name is Xiao, and I am currently the captain of the Grand Line Army of the Revolutionary Army."

Beckman had never heard of the name Yixiao, but he could feel the aura of a strong man from Yixiao, so he nodded politely.

Seeing that Beckman's attitude was quite friendly, Long's smile grew wider. However, Beckman's next words made the smile freeze on his face.

"Well, if you don't want to start a war, get out of here. Our captain won't like you."

Dragon believed that he had never offended Shanks, and that their Revolutionary Army and the Red Hair Pirates had always kept to themselves. Beckman's words really confused him.

But he certainly couldn't go back like this. If he went back like this, he would really lose face in front of Whitebeard. You know, Marco came and talked to Red Hair face to face, but he didn't even see him?

Just when Long was still trying to say a few more words, a sound of unhurried footsteps came from behind Beckman and others.

Beckman and the others consciously made room for each other, and Long also saw Shanks walking towards them.

Shanks lowered his head, his red hair swaying gently, and he whispered,

"The Revolutionary Army...who are they going to revolutionize?"
