Chapter 290

It had long fallen into the hands of the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates.

But Luo Xing discovered that within that vast territory, there was no hometown of Whitebeard.

Otherwise,

Luo Xing would have taken precautions long ago against Blackbeard potentially stealing Whitebeard's corpse.

Ma Erke's face changed.

Luo Xing actually asked about Old Man's hometown; the meaning behind this,

how could Ma Erke, with his intellect, fail to understand?

The other party clearly intended to incorporate Old Man's hometown into the Beasts Pirates' territory.

In that case,

they, the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates, even if they failed to avenge Old Man against Blackbeard,

for the sake of Old Man's hometown, Old Man's grave, and Ace's grave,

would have to faithfully serve the Beasts Pirates.

Ma Erke hesitated somewhat.

He did not know whether to agree to this condition.

Luo Xing stood with his hands behind his back, quietly waiting for Ma Erke and the others to choose.

In this world, where is there a free lunch to be eaten?

Although Luo Xing was very pleased with Ma Erke and the others' surrender,

and believed that given their character, they would not deign to lie and would certainly keep their promise.

But they were, after all, remnants of Whitebeard, and had intricate connections with forces hostile to the Beasts Pirates, such as Kozuki Oden, Shanks, and Straw Hat Luffy, and so on.

· ········· Begging for flowers ··· ·······

Luo Xing must add an extra layer of insurance.

To ensure Ma Erke and the others could never betray him.

Whitebeard's hometown and grave were the best shackles to bind Ma Erke and the others.

Ma Erke struggled for a while.

He exchanged a glance with Flower Sword Vista.

The two sighed simultaneously, having already made their decision.

Now that they were seeking help from others, the initiative was not in their hands.

Either compromise, or depart in gloom, letting that bastard Teach act arrogantly while they could do nothing.

Having figured it out, Ma Erke took a Log Pose from his chest and said:

"This is the pointer leading to Old Man's hometown."

Luo Xing took it.

He input the location information recorded in the Log Pose into the Daorenyi Sect.

Then he opened the door.

On the other side of the door was a country that had been largely destroyed.

........... 0

It could be seen that former members of the Whitebeard Pirates were still carrying out reconstruction work.

The place with the best scenery and highest elevation was precisely Whitebeard's grave.

Luo Xing nodded in satisfaction.

It seemed Ma Erke and the others were sincerely defecting and would not waver again.

A warm smile immediately appeared on Luo Xing's face; as he helped Diamond Jozu to his feet, he laughed:

"From now on, we are all one of us; there is no need to kneel down at every turn and so on."

"Jozu, eat this Senzu Bean and restore your arm first."

Luo Xing gave Jozu a Senzu Bean.

This generous act moved Jozu, caused Ma Erke to sigh with emotion, and made Vista and the other captains breathe a sigh of relief.

They had finally earned the trust of the man before them.

To be honest,

the atmosphere just now was somewhat tense.

The moment this man appeared, he carried a heavy pressure that made breathing feel difficult.

Vista even had a feeling, as if he were seeing Old Man in his Heyday.

Jozu ate the Senzu Bean.

The arm that Aokiji had removed instantly grew back out of thin air, like a miracle.

Luo Xing immediately took out more than a dozen Monster Cells.

Some were large, some small.

The small ones were Ghost-level Monster Cells.

Given the strength of the Whitebeard Pirates' captains, they were sufficient to withstand the side effects of Ghost-level Monster Cells.

The large ones were Dragon-level Monster Cells, which ordinary people could not withstand.

After learning the differences and effects of these Monster Cells,

Ma Erke, Jozu, and Vista, the three strongest captains,

without hesitation, chose to eat the Dragon-level Monster Cells!

246, The Whitebeard Pirates' captains eat Monster Cells! Rapidly surging power!

Ma Erke, Jozu, Vista, and the others had paid such a heavy price.

They even disregarded their past friendship with Kozuki Oden,

which also led to their comrade of many years, Izou, leaving.

What they sought was nothing other than the monster cells before them.

Monster cells could make their strength surge instantly.

They wanted to become stronger, defeat Blackbeard Teach, and avenge Dad, Ace, and Sachi!

Therefore,

no matter what huge side effects the monster cells might have, they did not care and swallowed the monster cells without hesitation.

And monster cells have different grades.

Currently, Luo Xing has already created Dragon-grade, Ghost-grade, and Tiger-grade ones.

The Tiger-grade strength is relatively low; for a Whitebeard Division Commander-level strength, eating a Tiger-grade one would be too wasteful.

So what Luo Xing gave them started at the Ghost-grade monster cell.

However,

hearing that the effect of the Dragon-grade monster cell was far beyond that of the Ghost-grade monster cell,

the commanders ranked "five-six-zero" after Flower-Sword Vista, that is, after the Fifth Division, also wanted to eat Dragon-grade monster cells.

The Phoenix Ma Erke stopped them.

"No, you cannot suffer any more accidents; you should still eat the Ghost-grade ones!"

Ma Erke had also heard of how terrifying the side effects of the Dragon-grade monster cell were.

He could not let his comrades suffer any accidents because of this.

But the commanders ranked behind them said unwillingly:

"Ma Erke, as long as we can become stronger and avenge Dad, even if we die, so what?"

They were willing to put aside everything and come to pledge allegiance to Luo Xing,

having already made up their minds to die!

But Ma Erke simply would not agree.

In the end,

it was Diamond Jozu who said:

"Don't rush yet; let me eat it first. You watch the situation from the side. If you can also withstand the side effects, then eating the Dragon-grade is naturally best."

Jozu wanted to test it for everyone first.

No one had any more objections.

Under the nervous gaze of Ma Erke and the other commanders,
