RNP Chapter 148
Chapter 148
With the arrival of Whitebeard, the negotiations finally officially began. The most senior of the Four Emperors really had an aura that was not to be underestimated.
Even Akainu had to admit that even though Whitebeard was old, his strength should be stronger than Kaido and Charlotte Linlin... Of course, he couldn't last too long!
However, Whitebeard's provocative behavior just now still made Akainu a little dissatisfied, so Akainu said coldly to Whitebeard:
"You come to negotiate with us but you have this attitude... Whitebeard, you don't really think that our navy wants to talk to your Whitebeard Pirates, do you?"
"If you are not sincere... we don't mind fighting right now!"
As he said that, Akainu released some of his domineering aura and pressed towards Whitebeard, but Whitebeard didn't care and laughed loudly, and apologized.
""I'm sorry, I'm an old man who is used to being casual, but I came to negotiate today with sincerity."
Whitebeard actually lowered his attitude and apologized to Akainu and the others, causing Aokiji and Kizaru to frown, not understanding what this guy was selling.
Whitebeard didn't care about the strange looks from the others, and spoke to himself.
"Oh, by the way...your genius navy boy, the kid called Bai Ze, didn't he come?"
Akainu said calmly,"No!"
"Oh, that's a pity. I'm still very interested in this young man who killed Kaido and Charlotte Linlin." Whitebeard stroked his snow-white beard like an old man. He smiled and finally put on a serious expression.
"Off topic, off topic... Actually, the purpose of my coming here today is very simple, that is, can we avoid a war? Although our Whitebeard Pirates are pirates, we are not very aggressive. I think you navy guys should know that I became a pirate just to find some family members.……"
"I don't want to make war on others, nor do I want others to make war on me"
"Because war can only bring casualties, which is not a good thing for your navy or my children... What do you think?"Seeking peace?
The purpose of the fierce Whitebeard's negotiation was to seek peace, which really made Akainu and others look sideways, especially Kizaru... He narrowed his eyes and looked up and down at the strongest man on the sea!
It was as if he was meeting him for the first time!
But...
Akainu shook his head and said in a resounding voice,
"Impossible, it is an indisputable fact that there will be a war between our navy and your Whitebeard Pirates, and the reason is very simple, you are pirates and we are the navy... We don’t care whether you are aggressive or not, but our navy cannot allow you, the time bombs on the sea, to roam around in this sea all the time!"
"This is irresponsible to other innocent people. Everyone has only one life. We can't and dare not gamble... No one is qualified to make this decision, including me, Akainu!"
Akainu was very determined about this. He looked at Whitebeard's old face and spoke word by word.
"Besides, how can you guarantee that your Whitebeard Pirates will always behave themselves... Is it really just for your family as you said? What if you die in the future, will your pirate group continue to operate like this?"
To be honest, the Whitebeard Pirates and Shanks' Red Hair Pirates are not very aggressive. From the sea areas they rule, it can be seen that they are far from Kaido's Beasts Pirates and Big Mom's BIGMOM Pirates!
But... this is two different things!
"Forehead……"
Whitebeard was a little helpless. Although he knew that there was almost no possibility of not starting a war, he was still a little disappointed when he heard Akainu say this in person, because it meant that many of his children would definitely die!
He, Whitebeard, was not afraid of death, but he was really afraid of watching his family members die like this. In his eyes, they were just a group of little kids... How old are they? There are still many beautiful scenery in the world that they have not seen? How bad is it to die like this?……
"Do we really have to start a war?"
Whitebeard spoke again, with a hint of pleading in his eyes. It was obvious that he was still not going to give up!
But the next moment!
Bang!
Akainu punched the ground, looked at Whitebeard with indifference and said loudly
"Our navy must go to war with your Whitebeard Pirates... Don't think about it anymore, and if this is the only purpose of your negotiation, then you can leave!"
"I won't attack you this time, to prevent you pirates from saying that our navy won unfairly."
As he said that, Akainu waved his hand... He was a little bit inclined to drive people away. Aokiji and Kizaru, who were watching coldly, obviously meant the same thing!
This battle must be fought, even if it costs some money!
If Whitebeard doesn't destroy the Four Emperors like this, then the pirates in this world will never be eradicated. This is a dead end!
……
"Why……"
Whitebeard shook his head helplessly. He looked up and down at Akainu at this moment. This guy is really confident.
It seems that there is really no other way. Whitebeard sighed and finally said the real purpose of coming today.
"If we have to fight, then let’s fight, but I think we can fight in a different way!"
"What method?"Akainu asked in confusion. He knew that this was the reason why Whitebeard came here to negotiate!
Aokiji and Kizaru also listened attentively. Aokiji especially reminded Whitebeard in a cold voice.
"I hope you won't say useless nonsense, we don't have much time……"
"Of course!" Whitebeard seemed not to be angry, still smiling in a friendly manner. He stood up and pointed at the navy soldiers who were still working hard on the warships in the distance and said:
"These soldiers are very energetic. Their twenties are the best time of their lives, whether they are navy or pirates. They shouldn't die in a war like this!"
Seeing that Whitebeard seemed to be about to say no to the war again, Akainu was about to interrupt him, but Whitebeard raised his hand and continued.���Opening
"So what I mean by changing the way of fighting is that you and I will only send out high-level combat forces, except for a few of us, such as your rear admirals or vice admirals... and I will only send out the captains and vice-captains of each division, and the victory will be decided by this group of us!"
"Others are not allowed to participate in the battle, so as to reduce unnecessary casualties!"
Whitebeard seemed to be afraid that Akainu and others would disagree, so he explained again.
"You know, it is us who really decide the direction of this war, and the role of these children is more than insignificant.……"
Whitebeard recited a bunch of reasons to promote his tactics to Akainu and the others, a war that only uses high-level combat forces... This was the first time in so many years. Although most people knew that ordinary people under their command could not affect the war at all, they still did not stop it.
After all... most people only care about themselves. If those weak soldiers or pirates died, they died. If they could slightly reduce the opponent's combat power, it would not be a loss. After all
, Whitebeard just stood there with Kusukome-kiri in his hand, looking at Akainu and the other two with a pair of tiger eyes. Frankly speaking, Whitebeard had never been humble in his life... If this didn't work, then he could only fight to the death!
Bang!
Akainu also stood up immediately, his tall body standing upright, his majestic eyes staring at Whitebeard, he spoke in a loud voice
"I agree!"
The Navy is confident that they can win by sending out high-level combat forces. If this can reduce some naval casualties, why not do it? Akainu is warlike but not a war maniac!
"What about you guys?"
Akainu said and then looked at Aokiji and Kizaru. The attitudes of these two guys are also very important!
Aokiji looked up and said,"I agree!"
Kizaru echoed,"Me too!"
The three of them all agreed, which instantly made Whitebeard breathe a sigh of relief, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief for long, Akainu asked again.
"What if the Whitebeard Pirates lose? The Navy doesn't want to let go of the remaining pirates. They either die... or go to the Undersea Prison to serve their sentences!"
Obviously, Akainu's bottom line is still the same... The time bomb of the Whitebeard Pirates must be removed!
Whitebeard seemed to have prepared this answer long ago. He smiled and said indifferently.
"If I lose, I will disband the entire Whitebeard Pirates. All the members of my pirate group will leave. As for whether they change their identities and become ordinary people, or continue to be pirates... I won't care!"
"If you, the navy, want to hunt them down, it’s up to you. The members of my Whitebeard Pirates are not afraid of sacrifice, but we just don’t want to sacrifice in vain!"
This is the greatest chance Whitebeard has fought for his children. To be honest... this is a war that is bound to fail, whether it is a general war or a high-end war.
The Whitebeard Pirates do not have a big gap in winning rate, so these are the only solutions that are not solutions. And it just so happens that this solution is in line with the navy's idea, so the result is naturally a happy ending for everyone!
After a moment of silence, Akainu said in a deep voice
"Can!"
""Thank you very much!"
Whitebeard replied. The brief negotiation was finally over!
There were no major twists and turns. Both sides adopted a new way of fighting in order to reduce unnecessary casualties!
