Chapter 139 Interception
Chapter 139 Interception
Zhan Guo thought about whether Pluto Rayleigh was real or fake. The old guy was indeed in the Sabaody Archipelago, and it wouldn't take him much time to come over, but he shouldn't come to join in the fun now, right?
From the fact that Ahe was led away, it can be seen that the enemy deliberately created chaos within the navy before the war. This would shake the morale of the army and prevent them from fighting the enemy with all their heart and soul.
It seemed like Rayleigh showed up so blatantly on purpose to lure Garp away.
If the real Rayleigh is willing to show up, is it to find out Ace's background? But if Rayleigh knew Ace's identity, why did Roger entrust his son to Garp?
There is no way I can trust Garp more!
"It's useless to think so much now. Let's wait for news from Garp." Sengoku thought about the gap in the peace envoy and what he needed to fill it and complete the encirclement.
What if the plan is leaked?
Four hours before the battle, Zhan Guo's hair was almost white with worry. He didn't know how much the other side knew or how much they had done, and he couldn't see the situation clearly. If he made the worst-case scenario, many arrangements would have to be changed, and the navy would have to pay a huge price.
—Gate of Justice—
In the control room of the watchtower here, the navy officers were lying on the ground. They never thought that a big pirate figure would come here and directly occupy this place.
"I've finished my report." A navy man fell to the ground, stuck his butt out and turned his head away. The seven-foot-long sword on his neck made him tremble.
"Ah." Rayleigh didn't hesitate and knocked the soldier unconscious.
Garp saw the sword marks on the watchtower and realized that it was Rayleigh himself. He really came for Ace! But... why did he show up so soon? Was he here to lead the Whitebeards? Rayleigh didn't look like that kind of person.
"Don't go up." Garp stopped the people on the warship, as others might be accidentally injured.
"Yes!"
The two hadn't seen each other for decades. Their eyes met and they looked at each other's old appearance, revealing the traces of time and memories of the past. The sea breeze blew gently, bringing with it an old smell.
Their faces are engraved with the marks of time, the wrinkles at the corners of their eyes and the white hair on their heads are all witnesses of time. But their eyes still gleam with the light of the past, which is the respect for each other.
"I didn't expect you to serve as a vanguard for Whitebeard." Garp laughed out loud. This guy has also fallen.
"Want to drink?" Reilly didn't say anything. He knew Mingluo didn't want to be famous.
"I don't like drinking."
"Two boxes behind you."
Garp turned around suspiciously and opened two large boxes, one containing senbei and the other containing donuts. He widened his eyes in shock, not because he suspected Rayleigh of poisoning, but because he was surprised when such a person appeared on the sea.
"Are you here to hold me back?"
"Isn't this obvious? It just so happens that you don't want to stay there, do you?" Rayleigh didn't say anything in detail. Mingluo asked him to occupy this place and not to interfere in the affairs of the White Group. He just needed to wait and see.
"Isn't it a loss?" Garp tore open a bag of senbei and ate it. "With your fighting ability, you can stay and hold back an old man like me."
"I'm an old man too, and young people rule the world now." Rayleigh laughed, took a sip of wine and started chatting with Garp. "I'm surprised you would adopt Ace."
"You don't know that bastard Roger suddenly told me he had a wife and kids, that guy!" Cap got angry when he mentioned this. He was seriously frightened that year.
Rayleigh: Well... that's my captain's style.

Akainu brought the silent Ace to the execution platform, and after confirming that he was safe and sound, he jumped to the seat below and sat down. He was the first to arrive, Kizaru was dealing with the peace envoy, and Aokiji was assisting with the internal investigation, so this position belonged to him.
"Fire Fist, no matter who comes, it's useless." Akainu snorted coldly from below. He would not let anyone get close.
"..." Ace looked at the navy below, closed his eyes and said nothing.
Soon, Sengoku showed up, and Ahe was sure that there was no problem inside, that is, someone had infiltrated the headquarters. There were too many ships coming and going these days, including ships from the navy, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the government, so it was not surprising that a few rats had sneaked in.
It’s just that Blackbeard disappeared not long ago, which makes people feel a little uneasy, but as long as the general direction remains unchanged, the war situation can still be controlled.
Marshal Zhan Guo walked up to the execution platform with a serious expression and a sharp gaze, staring closely at the kneeling Ace. He was covered in scars, his limbs were chained, and he was about to face death, but he closed his eyes and rested his mind without haste.
"Fire Fist Ace, tell me your father's name." Marshal Sengoku's voice echoed in the empty square, carrying an irresistible pressure.
Ace's eyes flashed with pain, but then he regained his determination. "My father is Whitebeard."
Marshal Sengoku didn't seem surprised by Ace's reaction, and he narrowed his eyes slightly and continued, "No."
"My old man only has a white beard!"
Zhan Guo ignored his objection and explained what happened that year. The navy had tried their best to find that possibility, and after searching for a long time, they checked all babies born within a year nearby, but they still couldn't find that person's child.
"Your birth was purchased by your mother's life..."
Hearing this, a freckled young man who was wiping the shells next to the artillery outside the bay had a scary look in his eyes. The blond young man next to him patted his shoulder and he went back to work.
"There is an island called Bartella in the South China Sea. Your mother's name is Bodocas D. Luju. This woman's actions are far beyond our common sense. She kept the child in her belly for 20 months."
"No need to say anything, just look like you are in pain." The freckled young man pressed down the brim of his navy hat and said this in a restrained manner.
"Okay." The brown-haired young man nodded and wiped the barrel with a sackcloth.
Sengoku revealed the death of Ace's mother, and then finally got to the final breaking point: "Your father is... the Pirate King Gol D. Roger."
The shocking news was like a bombshell, everyone's face was filled with astonishment and disbelief, their eyes were wide open as if they were about to bulge out, and their mouths were open wide enough to fit an egg in.
"how is this possible?"
"is this real?"
There are even more people who cannot make a sound, and people’s mood cannot calm down for a long time.
Under the water, invisible to everyone, in the water of Crescent Bay, Indra was wearing the clothes of the Ninja Clan, wrapped in a bubble, floating here with his eyes closed to rest.
Feeling four huge ship shadows appearing in front of him, he suddenly opened his eyes and controlled the water flow to drift forward.
"Dad, there's someone underwater ahead!"
"Is it the navy? Has our plan been discovered?"
"do not know."
Indra's bubble collided with the bubble of the Moby Dick and was completely absorbed. He landed on the deck at the bow and looked at the tallest Whitebeard.
"Whitebeard, please stop the boat and don't go near the bay."
Ming Luo had no idea that someone could blow up Bai Tuan with just one sentence.
