Chapter 27: Each with His Own Agenda (Ch 27)

Whitebeard bulged his arms with muscles, picked up the Kusukimi-rikiri, covered with armament domineering and the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, and slashed towards the Kirin.
Bang! A loud noise accompanied by a dazzling light made it impossible for everyone to open their eyes.
“Who…who won?”
“Nonsense, that’s Whitebeard, how could he lose?”
Marco, who was knocked down by the aftermath, quickly got up and looked at the center of the smoke with stars in his eyes.
“Dad, and brother Alan are so strong. Can I be like this one day? I definitely can.”
When the smoke and dust cleared, Whitebeard’s figure appeared in front of everyone, unharmed, looking at Alan with a smile on his face.
Alan was not surprised to see that his moves had no effect on Whitebeard. What he wanted was growth, not wishful thinking. Looking around, Alan and Whitebeard looked at each other and put away the Snow Goose. Whitebeard also put away his momentum and inserted the Kusukumochi into the ground.
The battle ends here. There are too many people around, watching closely. It is not a good idea to continue fighting.
The cadres looked disappointed when they saw the two men stop.
At this time, John walked out with a smile on his face, “Hey, hey, hey… why did you stop? There are so many of us spectators, why don’t you tell us the winner?”
“Or are you, Whitebeard, afraid of being defeated by your own men in front of everyone?”
John’s smile seemed sinister no matter how one looked at it. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he had ill intentions. He was quietly trying to sow discord between Whitebeard and Allen, wanting Whitebeard to attack Allen. Even if he couldn’t, at least he could give Whitebeard a hard time as he still remembered the punch he gave him last time.
Whitebeard looked at John with a gloomy face, and was about to say something when he was attracted by Alan’s voice.
“Brother Newgate, did you hear the dog barking? Shall we cook dog meat in the kitchen tonight?”
Whitebeard instantly understood what Alan meant. “Gulala, that’s right. I told the kitchen to kill and eat the barking dog today.”
The team members around him burst into laughter, and even John’s own men almost laughed out loud, but then their expressions changed. John is a dog, so what are they, his men? Dogs?
John’s heart instantly darkened when he heard what Whitebeard and Allen said. He didn’t dare to be presumptuous towards Whitebeard, so he directed his attack towards Allen.
“How dare a mere squad leader disrespect me like this? Didn’t anyone tell you to respect your seniors?”
Hearing this, Alan turned his head and looked at John with a playful smile, “Hey, isn’t this Captain John? When did you come over? You said it was disrespectful? I was talking about dinner with Brother Newgate. What are you talking about? I don’t quite understand. Or do you think you are a dog?”
“You…you…” John pointed at Alan angrily and said “you” for a long time but nothing came out of him.
If you respond, you’re a dog; if you don’t respond, you’re a clown.
Just kidding, in terms of strength, Allen may still have a long way to go, but to be sarcastic, Allen is not targeting anyone. Allen, who has experienced the information explosion in his previous life, can say that everyone here is…
Seeing that he could not gain any advantage, John left in shame with his men.
Rocks looked at Whitebeard and then at Eren. Whitebeard and Golden Lion were the ones closest to him in strength in the entire pirate group. Rocks was only confident in Whitebeard because he didn’t like to recruit subordinates on a large scale. Now with Eren joining the group, his fear of Whitebeard increased sharply, and he even ranked above the ambitious Golden Lion.
Although Golden Lion has nearly 10,000 men under his command, in Rocks’ opinion, no matter how many minions he has, their potential cannot compare to that of Alan.
You have to know that Rocks can suppress this group of ambitious people with his own strength. If one day his strength can no longer suppress these people, then the Rocks Pirate Group will fall apart in an instant.
So even though Whitebeard, Golden Lion, Big Mom and others are extremely powerful, he still prefers people like Silver Axe and John, because their strength will never be beyond his control.
“Boy Allen, you have joined us for a few months now. Do you want to become a cadre?” After figuring it out, Rocks wanted to divide Whitebeard and Allen.
The team members and minions nearby were all shocked after hearing what Rocks said, some were envious and some were hateful.
“Hahaha, he becomes a cadre so soon? But I recognize Eren’s strength, and I agree that he can become a cadre.” Golden Lion knew that Eren would not join his team, so it would be great to divide Eren and Whitebeard, so he spoke up to support Eren becoming a cadre.
After looking at the Golden Lion and thinking for a moment, the aunt also agreed with the Golden Lion’s idea.
Only Whitebeard’s expression kept changing.
Alan’s heart moved, and he instantly understood Rocks’s idea, but he still rejected Rocks. “No need, Captain, I have no intention of recruiting subordinates, nor do I have any ambitions. I am comfortable here with my brother in Newgate, so I won’t bother.”
He said this but rolled his eyes in his heart, “What a joke, you’ll be dead next year, do you think being a cadre will attract more attention? There’s no benefit at all, and you’ve offended Whitebeard. I treat you as the king of the world, why do you treat me like a fool?”
Seeing that Allen rejected his proposal, Rocks’ face darkened, and a terrifying domineering aura swept towards Allen. “You are… rejecting me, right?”
Allen’s face changed, and then he used his domineering aura to resist Rocks. However, Allen was no match for Rocks now. Allen’s domineering aura was like a willow branch in a hurricane, which seemed like it would break at any time.
Golden Lion, Auntie, Silver Axe, Wang Zhi and others on the side all looked like they were enjoying the show.
“You are so arrogant, let’s see how you deal with it now,” the Golden Lion muttered with a sneer.
Seeing this, Whitebeard stood next to Eren and sent a domineering aura towards Rocks. Although this aura was not as strong as Rocks, he could still resist for a while together with Eren.
Seeing this, Rocks put away his arrogance and the anger on his face disappeared. “It’s up to you.” Then Rocks walked towards the island.
Rocks turned away with a lot of anger in his heart. As the cadres on the ship became stronger and stronger, they became more and more difficult to control. Today, he invited Allen to become a cadre but was rejected, which was tantamount to being slapped in the face.
“Just wait. I have asked Xia Qi to get information about the Heavenly King. Once I get the Heavenly King, I will kill all the Celestial Dragons and become the true king of the world. By then, none of you traitors will be able to escape.”
Seeing that there was nothing interesting to watch, the others also dispersed.
………
Watching Rocks go away, Whitebeard and Eren breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled at each other.
“Let’s go, guys. Let’s go back and have a party to celebrate Alan’s breakthrough in strength.” Whitebeard called on the team members to go back to the base.
“Oh, it’s time for a party.”
