Chapter 257: Be My Son-in-Law

New World, the Moby Dick.

Although the Whitebeard Pirates hold territories like Fudaiwei Tian Island and Sphinx Island in the New World.

However, unlike the other Emperors of the Sea who occupy fixed headquarters, the Whitebeard Pirates' headquarters is not one of their subordinate territories, but the Moby Dick.

As the headquarters of the Emperor of the Sea, Whitebeard, the Moby Dick can be said to be one of the safest places on the Grand Line.

Yet, Whitebeard has recently been plagued by a strange thought: sending Haidibei to Inazuma.

If Haidibei were not about to give birth, he would truly put this into action.

As for why he has this thought, Whitebeard himself cannot explain it clearly; he simply believes that sending his wife and child to Saint Saint Saiwen's side is safer.

Although such an arrangement seems somewhat absurd.

But Whitebeard trusts his intuition; this might be the Observation Haki perception of a top-tier powerhouse.

Finding the Old Man sitting silently at the entrance of the delivery room, Ma Ma Ma Erke stepped forward to comfort him.

"Old Man, rest assured."

"The midwife I invited is from Sphinx Island; she is one of our own."

Whitebeard patted Ma Ma Ma Erke's shoulder.

"Do you think... is it a boy or a girl?"

Ma Ma Ma Erke naturally hoped for a younger brother, so that in the future he could inherit the Old Man's bloodline and maintain the glory of the Whitebeard Pirates.

But what if it is a girl?

So it is best not to make any judgment first, lest he be beaten up by Haidibei; the Ice Witch is a witch too.

"Actually, it is the same whether it is a boy or a girl."

"You slippery fellow."

Whitebeard laughed and scolded: "In a while, I plan to send Haidibei and the child to Inazuma."

Ma Ma Ma Erke nodded: "Mm."

Nowadays, Inazuma is the most livable place in the New World; after Izo, captain of the 16th Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, returned from visiting his hometown, he could not help but kowtow twice to Saint Saint Saiwen.

The welfare benefits for Inazuma's citizens are so high that compared to the Wano Country period, the difference is simply between heaven and hell.

The most crucial point is: neither the white nor the black side dares to cause trouble in Inazuma.

The Morning Star Group has extremely deep foundations; like an iceberg on the sea surface, you never know what terrifying existence is hidden below the sea level.

Previously, Yuzhi Xiliu, who showed no signs of strength, has recently gone berserk throughout the Grand Line.

He has even been dubbed the "Born Murderer."

With the Morning Star Group present, pirate invasions in Inazuma can never happen again.

Pirates in the New World not only cannot defeat the Morning Star Group but are also very likely to be hunted down.

In the past, the Marines and the World Government targeted them; after Saint Saint Saiwen became a Celestial Dragon, even the Marines had to queue up obediently to buy Sea Prism Stone in Inazuma.

Even after Marineford was destroyed, the Marines held their noses and accepted it.

Is there a power on the seas stronger than the Marines?

Is Kaido imposing enough?

Kaido was driven out of Inazuma by Saint Saint Saiwen; these past years, he has at most occasionally muttered a few words.

But if it were someone else, even the other three Emperors of the Sea including the Old Man, Kaido would definitely have led the Beasts Pirates to attack back long ago.

Ma Ma Ma Erke heard from Izo that—

When the Morning Star Group reclaimed Inazuma, because they could not break through Saint Saint Saiwen's Conqueror's Haki defense, Kaido lost his composure first.

Therefore, regarding the Old Man's plan to arrange for Big Sister Haidibei to live in Inazuma, Ma Ma Ma Erke wholeheartedly approved.

After all, the Moby Dick is full of big men, which is indeed somewhat inconvenient.

While the two were chatting, accompanied by a loud infant's cry, the midwife walked out of the delivery room with a full face of smiles.

"Lord Newgate, it's born, it's born."

"Congratulations, it is a little daughter."

The division captains of the Whitebeard Pirates instantly gathered around: "Congratulations, Old Man, we will have a little sister from now on."

Whitebeard grinned: "Gurarara~"

Having roamed the seas for many years, Saint Saint Saiwen is the son Whitebeard values most; unfortunately, this young man does not like being someone's son.

Before, Whitebeard had no choice; now that he has a daughter, hmm hmm hmm.

The dream son-in-law, where will you run this time?

Come quickly and be my son-in-law.

Whitebeard immediately waved his big hand: "Sachi, go quickly and prepare a banquet."

Ma Ma Ma Erke whispered a reminder: "Old Man, I suggest you had better go see Mom first..."

"Do I not know that?"

Whitebeard's old face turned red; he was too excited just now and almost forgot to go to the delivery room to visit Haidibei first.

Although having a child with Haidibei was not voluntary, as a man, since he did it, he must take responsibility to the end.

Otherwise, would he not become a lowly pirate?

Whitebeard does not want to be mocked crazily by Saint Saint Saiwen about this matter in the future.

Roger could hold back back then, but he cannot.

But he cannot beat that young man, so it is best to cut off the possibility of being mocked crazily by Saint Saint Saiwen about this matter in the future from the root.

Walking into the delivery room, picking up the wrinkled little child in the swaddling clothes, Whitebeard's face instantly bloomed with a smile.

This feeling of blood connection is truly very strange; it feels as if he wants to give her everything beautiful in the world.

Since the Rocks Pirates era, Whitebeard has had no interest in treasure; his lifelong pursuit is to build a family on the seas; over the years, the members of the thirty-plus pirate crews under his command all call him Old Man.

Now there is a bloodline of one's own.

This subtle reaction made Whitebeard's cherishing of family in his heart instantly grow even stronger.

Whitebeard, now fifty-five years old, looked at his newborn daughter; amidst his joy, he could not help but feel some worry.

Everyone will eventually grow old.

Even as strong as Whitebeard, he must admit to aging; he can continue to protect his family now, but what about twenty years from now?

There is no suitable successor within the Whitebeard Pirates; Ma Ma Ma Erke has aspired since childhood to become the strongest support... unsuited to be the leader.

"Have you thought of a name for the little one?"

Hearing the question, Whitebeard shook his head.

"Think of it quickly, think of it quickly."

Perhaps because it was his first child, Whitebeard had no experience, and secondly, he suffered from name-selection difficulty; he had thought for over half a year and still had not decided.

Just then, two figures appeared out of thin air on the Moby Dick.

"How about Istal?"

"Hmm?" Whitebeard raised his head, looking at Saint Saint Saiwen, who was smiling outside the delivery room.

"How do you have time to come over?"

"I went to Fish-Man Island to handle some matters, passed by here, and just happened to come over to discuss something with you."

Jozu took the child from Whitebeard's arms: "You two go talk."

"Right here is fine." Saint Saint Saiwen explained: "Big Sister Jozu, help the old man consider it."

Saint Saint Saiwen came this time hoping to reach a cooperation with Whitebeard using pure gold rings, so that when the uprising comes in the future, the Whitebeard Pirates can help guard the rear.

Whitebeard might be able to refuse the temptation of pure gold rings, but Jozu definitely could not.

"What is it?" Jozu was somewhat puzzled: "Does it still need me to help the old man consider it?"

Saint Saint Saiwen casually took out two rings.

【Pure Gold Ring: After wearing it, the body will enter a state of stagnation, commonly known as immortality.】

Pure gold concerns something of great importance; Saint Saint Saiwen was too lazy to use Conqueror's Haki to knock out the Whitebeard Pirates members, so he simply used his telepathic ability to inform Whitebeard and his wife.

"Nani?!" Whitebeard exclaimed.

Good heavens, truly the dream child.

Not long ago, Whitebeard was still lamenting that everyone will eventually grow old; immediately after, Saint Saint Saiwen personally delivered pure gold rings.

At this moment, Whitebeard finally understood.

Why even the unruly Shiki never thought of betraying Saint Saint Saiwen.

Damn it, Shi Ji's thigh is truly thick!
