Shanks looked at Teach with a serious look on his face. He could feel that this guy's smell was different from most of the people in the Whitebeard Group.
At this critical moment, he would not trust a man who had hidden his fighting ability for so long.
So he emphasized to Marco that this was a very important matter involving Captain Roger, so he hoped that he could wake up Whitebeard.
At the same time, Marco can come and listen, but it can only be Marco.
At this tense moment, the red-haired man no longer trusted some of the people in the white group.
Or maybe the people on the Moby Dick were too naive and were likely to leak information.
He had promised Noah that there must not be any mistakes in the Revolutionary Army's involvement in this matter.
Seeing how serious Shanks was, and considering that the other party had a very good reputation, Marco agreed to the condition.
He brought Shanges to Whitebeard's room. As soon as he opened the door, the strong smell of potion, blood, and decay reached Shanges' senses.
The smell of decay comes from the body's internal organs. Older people will emit a strong corpse odor before they die, which means that their internal organs have begun to rot.
Red Hair was shocked. With White Beard's physique, this situation was basically like he had one foot in the gate of hell.
Chapter 514: Whitebeard on the verge of death
"It's already this serious! It wasn't this serious the last time I saw it."
"Dad's body is breaking down faster and faster now."
Marco took off his glasses, wiped off the moisture, and released the Phoenix Fruit with all his strength. The flames of the Phoenix covered Whitebeard's body, and a miracle of rebirth was unfolding on Whitebeard's body.
But this is only a stopgap measure. When the flames are extinguished, Whitebeard will continue to be trapped in the final stretch of the death line.
Whitebeard opened his eyes with a confused look in his eyes, which should not appear in a strong man like him.
"Kulala, it's Shanks, did something big happen?"
After Shanks used his Observation Haki to confirm that there was no one eavesdropping nearby, he took out another device. This was the anti-eavesdropping device given to him by Noah.
Seeing Shanks being so cautious, Marco beside him also became cautious.
"Now there is a way to save you, and probably extend your life for a few more years.
But you need to secretly go to my territory to carry out the operation, and you must not reveal the information of the person who saved your life until you die. Are you willing?"
Before Whitebeard could say anything, Marco was the first to become extremely excited.
“Is it true? Captain Red Hair, if you can do this, you will be our great benefactor.
We will do whatever you ask us to do in the future."
Marco never expected that a miracle would happen on the sea. He prayed countless times in his dreams that there was a way to save his father. Unexpectedly, the red-haired man came to him with hope.
"unnecessary."
As expected, Whitebeard coldly rejected the opportunity given by Red Hair.
"I know my own body well. Even if I survive, I can only hold on for a few more years. What's the point if I can't even make a fist with my body like this?"
He had already lost interest in living like this. An invincible warrior who dominated the sea was lying on a sickbed. This was not like a pirate at all.
"It can restore some of your combat power and extend your lifespan by about 3 to 5 years. That person promised me that."
"Can't we say who that person is? I promise you, Edward Newgate."
"We absolutely cannot talk about this here. Their identities are extremely sensitive."
At this point, Whitebeard's brain turned and he understood that it should be the Revolutionary Army.
If it were the World Government, they would never save him.
Marco wanted to agree on behalf of his father right now. He didn't care who the other person was, as long as he could save his father's life, he would be his benefactor.
Whitebeard still refused. He couldn't let his sons get involved with such a dangerous force.
"Dad!"
Marco knelt on the ground and begged Whitebeard.
The red-haired man sat there quietly and said.
"If you die now, in this age of the sea, your pirate group and your sons will be destroyed very quickly.
You have to understand that it's not just the World Government that wants to destroy the Whitebeard Pirates, but also the pirates you defeated over the years.
Marco and his team don't have the ability to stand on their own yet, so they can't be stopped."
Hearing this, Whitebeard was slightly shaken.
As a great pirate, he shouldn't be bound by such constraints, but his family is his lifelong obsession.
The Pirate Group was also established under the drive of this obsession, and now it is a two-way binding.
He didn't want to leave this world so early, but the damage Kaido caused him was too heavy.
Whitebeard was indeed unwilling to die before training a successor.
“As for the favors you owe me in this matter, you can just make a promise. Their credibility is pretty good.
And to be honest, the moral standards are much higher than those of pirates. So the price you have to pay will not be that high."
After hearing this, Whitebeard also made a decision.
"Why are you helping me, red-haired brat?"
"Because the sea needs you, the balance of this world needs you, and now is not the time to run away."
The red-haired man looked serious, but the white-beard laughed loudly in return.
"Kulalalala. You little brat still does these things for such silly reasons."
He looked at the reluctance in Marco's eyes, and understood that the Whitebeard Pirates really could not do without him.
Then agree to it. As for the price, his life can be taken at any time.
"Marco, from now on, listen to Shanks. Don't let him underestimate our Whitebeard Pirates.
As for the arrangements for other people, you decide for yourself. Also, since you promised to keep it confidential, you must do so.
The red-haired kid said that he could arrange for two people to go, you and Vista.
Don't tell anyone else, not even Joz and the others, understand!"
"Yes, Dad."
After saying this, Whitebeard fell into a deep sleep again.
In the past, Marco would definitely be reluctant, but now he has new hope.
From the conversation between Red Hair and his father, we can understand that they both believe in the force that promised to save White Beard, which shows that the other party is really a capable person.
He slowly retracted the Phoenix Fire and looked at the red-haired man with a determined gaze.
"When do we leave?"
Anytime is fine, but of course the sooner the better.
Red Hair once again reminded that this matter must be kept absolutely confidential and must not be known to other members of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Marco frowned. Even though his father said so, he would do the same.
But I specifically point this out because you are the children who don't believe in your dad.
"The other party's identity is quite sensitive, and letting you go with them is already a huge risk.
If they are exposed, not only they will be in danger, but even the Whitebeard Pirates may be destroyed.
So don't be so willful at this time, Marco, you have grown up, don't let Whitebeard down again."
The red-haired man reminded him very seriously.
Although he was very unhappy about being scolded by the other party, for the sake of his father he decided to follow the other party's arrangements.
I went out and found a reason to call Vista in.
After Vista came in and learned about this secret plan, he became increasingly calm after being quite excited at the beginning.
He first bowed to the red-haired man to express his gratitude, and said that he would always remember his kindness.
Then he expressed his approval of the plan and even agreed with the level of confidentiality of the matter.
In this matter, his blade can cut through anyone who gets in the way.
Marco went out to talk to the other brothers and Red Hair just listened in. After confirming that the plan was not revealed, he nodded with satisfaction.
Bista and his friends had to work very hard to get the brothers to agree to let the two of them take their father away from the Moby Dick.
He said that this was an order from his father and that he had to go to a certain place before he died.
Because of everyone's trust in Marco and Vista and the authority of their father's orders, although they were extremely reluctant, they finally agreed to this matter.
After all, he had to respect his father's last wishes. Teach might have wanted to say something, but when he saw Vista's hand on the hilt of the sword, he gave up.
Just watch Red Hair, Vista and Marco secretly leave the Moby Dick with White Beard.
Chapter 515 Opening the Operating Room
In the redhead's territory.
A medical room was established.
Don’t think that pirates have no technological pursuits. Basically, all the Four Emperors have invested in this area.
Or there are talents in this field in the territory. Just think of Kaido's Smile Fruit.
Whitebeard is now lying on the bed in the medical room, with all kinds of tubes and instruments plugged into his body.
Marco stayed inside and used the power of his fruit to extend Whitebeard's life from time to time.
Vista was sitting outside doing security work, and saw Red Hair and Beckman coming again.
At this time, Vista's hand holding the sword was a little unsteady, and he asked Shanks very anxiously.
"Red-haired boss, when will the person you mentioned come? Dad can't hold on any longer."
Shanks said calmly:
"It's almost time. What that guy said is still very credible."
In fact, he couldn't be completely sure. Noah's whereabouts were not easy to track and he had lost contact a few days ago.
After a while, Marco came out and wiped the sweat from his head.
"There are still seven days left. This is the time that Dad's physical fitness can only last when it reaches the limit of human strength."
Then he sat outside the door with Bista.
Marco, who has arrived in the Red Hair Territory, has been constantly reflecting on himself these days in addition to taking care of his father.
The fleet has lost its soul after losing its father. No one can support Whitebeard's flag at this time. It is his dereliction of duty.
Dad has said many times before that he hopes the children on the Moby Dick will work hard to prove themselves, but unfortunately everyone is immersed in the past.
If he could be given a few more years, he would definitely work hard to fulfill his duties as the first team and reassure his father.
The second is that the development of his own fruit ability is still insufficient. Although the Phoenix cannot bring others back to life.
But the power to prolong life should be more than this. With his father's protection, he really wasn't working hard enough.
As for the person that Red Hair mentioned who could save his father, he had roughly analyzed it in the past two days. It should be the Revolutionary Army.
Apart from the Revolutionary Army, he couldn't imagine any other force capable and willing to save his father.
Although he was anxious, he forced himself to stay calm and kept recalling some books about medicine.
He doesn't want another brother to leave him one day in the future and he won't be able to do anything about it.
Shanks was very pleased to see the changes in Marco. Whitebeard's ideal successor was slowly maturing.
"coming!"
Beckman and the red-haired man looked in the same direction at the same time.
