Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Encirclement and Counter-encirclement by Shipping King Jack

"That's... the ship of the Beasts Pirates."

Seeing this scene, Sachi and others' faces suddenly turned ugly.

Although the two sides were far apart, the flags could be clearly seen at this moment.

Because of this, the latter's actions are clearly a provocation.

"He's looking for death."

"Notify people to prepare for battle!"

In an instant, Marco gave orders.

"yes!"

"yes!"

In response, Sachi and others also responded.

Although Whitebeard was also on the ship, he was even the captain.

But there is no need to trouble Whitebeard for such small matters, as Marco, the captain of the first squadron, is almost always responsible for preparing them.

For a moment, Bista and others did not hesitate, turned around and hurried away to gather their men.

At the same time, Ron followed Thatch to an area.

Looking at the ship that was getting closer, Thatch said, "This is the ship of the Beasts Pirates. If a fight breaks out, you should go back to the cabin and don't force yourself to get involved, okay?"

"Okay, Captain Thatch."

Ron nodded and didn't refuse.

Although his own strength has improved to the major level, and he has even completed the orc transformation and the increase of the blue flame temperature, he does not think that his own strength will increase too much.

In such a situation, he would not be foolish enough to force his way forward. Doing what he can is the best option. On the contrary, if he forces himself, the probability of being killed will increase significantly.

"Sachi!"

'Ron!'

Just at this moment, Ace's voice was heard.

It can be seen that he hurriedly came to the field area and said: "I told my father that the second and fourth teams will act together next."

"good!"

Hearing this, Sachi did not refuse.

After all, everyone has seen what happened to Ace before. When helping Ron improve his fruit ability, Ace consumed a lot of energy and has not yet recovered.

Under such circumstances, a group of people stood by the boat and waited patiently.

"Captain Jack."

"That seems to be the ship of the Whitebeard Pirates. Do we really want to go there?"

At the same time, on the other side of Drought Jack's ship, a pirate asked with a nervous look.

After all, the Whitebeard Pirates are one of the Four Emperors.

Now they were going to G5 base to cause trouble for the navy. If they rashly offended the Whitebeard Pirates, then...

"Humph, who do you think I am?"

Jack didn't take it seriously. He glanced at the pirate and shouted, "Come over here!"

"So what about the Whitebeard Pirates?"

"I'm Drought Jack."

"They are here, they probably know something. We should repel them first and make sure they don't come to cause trouble later."

As soon as these words were spoken, the pirates below suddenly realized.

It turns out that Jack's goal was to be the first to intimidate the members of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Thinking of this, they all felt more at ease and sped up the boat without hesitation.

As they got closer, Jack's face, who was standing at the bow, became increasingly ugly.

Because as the two sides got closer, he had already seen the figures of squad captains such as Marco, Joz, Vista and others standing in the area in front of the Moby Dick.

Especially as the two ships were about to collide head-on, he finally saw the man with the white beard sitting on the deck, leaning back in a chair with his eyes closed and dozing off.

"White, white, white beard~"

At this moment, Jack couldn't hold it anymore.

He took a few steps forward, snatched the telescope from his subordinate's hand and looked carefully.

After making sure that he was not mistaken, Jack could no longer hold back and shouted urgently: "Retreat!"

"Retreat quickly!"

"Damn it, why did that old guy Whitebeard appear here?"

"What!"

"Whitebeard!"

"The strongest man in the world."

"Why is he here?"

"…"

Upon hearing this, the members of Jack's pirate group were also dumbfounded.

Bodies were shaking with fear, and some even collapsed to the ground, losing strength.

In absolute terror, the ships that were originally rushing towards the Moby Dick also quickly slowed down, and even began to sail to the side areas in an attempt to avoid the intersection with the Moby Dick.

"It's Jack!"

"This guy is really brave."

"You had the audacity to single-handedly select us."

Seeing this, the solemn expressions on Marco and others' faces disappeared, replaced by a look of amusement.

They thought it was Kaido himself who came out, and they were all ready for a battle.

But I didn't expect it was just Jack.

Although one of the Three Disasters has a good reputation, it is nothing to the people present.

"Speed up!"

"Catch up with him."

"Catch Jack and find out whether the information about the devil fruit is true or not."

Without any hesitation, Marco gave the order.

"yes!"

"yes!"

Hearing this, the crew members in the cabin were also cheered up.

It was just Jack.

Then the ship in front of us is not threatening at all.

Without hesitation, the Moby Dick accelerated rapidly.

However, within a short period of time, they caught up with Drought Jack's ship.

At this time, Marco and others did not hesitate, and jumped directly to Jack's boat and said, "Drought Jack, where are you going?"

"Jack, long time no see. Isn't it a bit too much for you to leave without saying goodbye?"

"Jack, today is worse than tomorrow. You provoked me last time, and this time we have to settle the score."

"…"

At once, Joz and the others spoke up.

He paid no attention to Jack's face, which had turned red as liver color. His expression was filled with amusement and mockery.

Including Ron.

At this moment, they all followed Thatch and Ace to Jack's ship.

It's not that he is overconfident, but according to Sachi's words, Jack is just a piece of meat on the chopping board and can't pose any threat to him.

"You guys~"

Jack opened his mouth, feeling heavy inside.

If he were to face anyone alone, he would be absolutely sure of defeating him.

But now he is facing the sixteen captains of the Whitebeard Pirates. Almost no one is weaker than him, not to mention that there are some who he cannot match.

In this situation, he was completely surrounded and had no choice. It was a foregone conclusion that he would fail in a head-on confrontation and be captured.

"Beep, beep, beep~"

"Beep, beep, beep~"

Suddenly, the sound of Den Den Mushi rang out.

Then, Jack's face changed, and he subconsciously took out a Den Den Mushi from his arms to answer the call; "Boss, I..."

"Jack, where have you been?"

However, before Jack could finish.

Kaido's domineering voice came out from Den Den Mushi: "I am leading the Beast Army and approaching the G5 base. Why haven't you arrived yet?"

"Didn't you hear my order clearly? We must launch the attack before noon. Are you slowing down deliberately because you are afraid?"
