After Benn Beckman heard the conversation between the two men, he directly raised his hand and threw the cigarette in his mouth into the sea and jumped down directly from the lookout.
After walking two steps in front of Shanks, Benn Beckman looked at the newspaper with slightly narrowed eyes and said, “It’s kinda like that.”
In comparison to Benn Beckman and Yasoop, who were watching, Shanks was looking at the photo more and more, “This is what I used to look like.”
After Yasoop heard these words, the expression on his face became bizarre. He stroked his beard with one hand for a while and then said to Shanks in a serious manner, “Is there such a possibility?”
Although Shanks felt some abnormal for Yasoop’s behavior, he asked him, “What is possible?”
Only after Shanks asked, Yasoop heated smile, and said, “You say, is there a possibility that it is your – son!”
“Son?!”
After hearing Yasoop’s speculation, Shanks froze. After being convinced that he hadn’t done anything in the East Blue a few years ago, he opened his mouth and said, “No way, how could I have a son?”
“He is too similar. If he is not your son, how can he is so similar to you?”
Although Yasoop was the first to follow Shanks and was the most familiar with Shanks’ whereabouts, this could not conceal his inner curiosity. Maybe Shanks was doing something behind his back and others?
Benn Beckman was originally coming over to join in the fun, but when he saw Yasoop said so, he also followed, “There is indeed such a possibility. When we went to the East Blue, Shanks was not by our side on several occasions, isn’t…”
“Stop! Stop!”
In order to keep the crowd from discussing this issue again, Shanks reached out and pointed to the bounty list next to the teenage Shanks and said to Benn Beckman, “There’s Garp and Doflamingo.”
Benn Beckman had joined the Red Head Pirates more than ten years ago, and he knew Shanks’ character and his behavior over the years. The person who looked like Shanks in the newspaper was only about ten years old at first glance, and at that time, they were still struggling to become a big pirate group in the sea.
“Before, the marine has not put up the photos of these two people. It seems to be because of their looks. If these two people are fake, then this Shanks is also likely to be fake.”
Benn Beckman leaned over when he had seen all the bounty list. He was quite suspicious of the two who had been silhouettes before. Finally, the silhouettes were out, indicating that the Marine Headquarters was in possession of each other’s specific looks, and even if it was a portrait, the marine should have gotten one. But apparently, the marine was deliberately let the newspaper not to publish the appearance of the two.
“The marine should have decided to do something. That’s why they put up all their pictures.” Through this photo change, Benn Beckman had basically guessed the marine’s idea, “Perhaps in the first half of the Grand Line, a great battle that has not been seen for many years will unfold.”
After hearing Benn Beckman’s analysis, Shanks handed the newspaper to the Yasoop next to him and said, “You mean, the marine will fight with this Wexford Pirates head-on again?”
“Most likely so, and this time the marine will only send out more people. After all, the last time Kuzan lost the battle in Loguetown, the marine does not want to fail again.” Benn Beckman’s hands clasped his chest, leaning on the railing, continued, “In order to maintain the face of the marine, Sengoku will definitely send out a large number of high-end battle forces.”
“In that case, while the marine is at war with Wexford, the marine’s battle power elsewhere will drop dramatically.” Shanks also seemed to have found the key point. The marine and Wexford battle seemed to be an opportunity for other pirates.
“It definitely will. We may not have any action, but those guys who want to continue to expand their territory will definitely make a move.”
In Benn Beckman’s thought, if the marine failed or suffered heavy losses, then the pirates of the New World would definitely find a way to expand their territory outward. The tentacles of the pirates might reach out from the New World and spread to the first half of the Grand Line.
Although the first half of the Grand Line now also had a lot of pirates, the actual controller was still the marine. They had a far better battle power than the pirates in the first half of the Four Seas and the Grand Line.
“Will the marine lose?” Shanks stood up, one hand on the hilt of his sword, as he asked Benn Beckman.
Faced with such a question, Benn Beckman frowned and thought about the battle power of the two sides, said, “According to the current personnel of both sides, the marine’s chances of winning are still very high.”
“If the marine sent three Admirals, Sengoku, Garp, and others, that strength is definitely the premier existence of the sea. If marine also mobilizes the Seven Warlords of the Sea to participate in the war, they should not be able to stand alone against the existence of this power, even the current Whitebeard Pirates cannot.”
Benn Beckman was thinking about the whole picture. In the information they got now, it seemed that there was a guy in Wexford’s group who could fight with Garp to a draw.
In addition to this person’s unexpected power, the battle power shown by others was not particularly strong. If they only relied on the fake Garp, it was absolutely impossible to defeat the marine.
Whether it was the sum of numbers or battle power, the marine had an absolute advantage. This comparison between the two sides made Benn Beckman a very good judgment.
“Why don’t we go over and take a look? It’s a great battle that you can see once in a while.” Yasoop squatted beside the two men, wrapped the newspaper into a ball, and said to the crowd.
When Yasoop just finished the words, Shanks turned around and said, “Then go over to see it. It just happens to be by way of the Sabaody Archipelago.”
The Sabaody Archipelago that Shanks said was the important place in the first half of the Grand Line when the ships wanted to enter the New World. Their pirate ships needed to be coated here, then dive into the deep sea, drilling through the red earth continent below, and finally reach the New World.
Shanks had an old acquaintance in Sabaody Archipelago, the original Roger’s Pirates’ first mate – Silvers Rayleigh.
Benn Beckman didn’t mind going to the first half of the Grand Line. Anyway, there was nothing to do recently. Hence, as the Red Head Pirates’ first mate, he also agreed, “Okay, we can go to see how the marine will deal with this group of fast-rising pirates.”
………
At the same time, when the Red Head Pirates turned their ships around and headed for the first half of the Grand Line, the other three emperors of the New World also saw the latest newspaper.
However, compared to the Red Head Pirates who want to see the fun, the Kaido the Beast just casually glanced at the newspaper, then let his deputy ‘the All Stars’ see for themselves. Kaido picked up the wine jug again and drank.
The other Four Kings group, Big Mom Pirates members, were simply not available to care about this matter because their pirate group leader Charlotte Linlin was guilty of nausea again.
Compared to the first two, after seeing the picture of Garp, the Whitebeard had a very special feeling. Especially with the snow-white-haired Garp. —Whitebeard was greatly impressed. However, Whitebeard was more willing to stay with his family than the muddy waters trip.
