Nautical Highlights: Showcasing Battles Between Emperors and Shoguns

This is the only way to explain it!

……

the other side.

At Naval Headquarters, Sengoku frowned as he observed the thoughts on these people's faces.

I don't know what I'm thinking.

Just now.

A call came in immediately from the Five Elders!

After the call was connected.

Then, during the Warring States period, he heard the instructions given by the Five Elders.

"You high-ranking Navy officers, at least change the subject and don't let them discuss the Gum-Gum Fruit. This is not something they should be discussing!"

Upon hearing this news, Sengoku was still somewhat incredulous.

What could be the reason for this...?

Is there really something wrong with this so-called Rubber-Rubber Devil Fruit?

Could Luffy's true background be far more terrifying than he imagined?

Zhan Guo immediately recalled a rumor he had heard several years ago, and his mind began to wander!

It seems the waters of the East China Sea...

It's really deep!

Oh well, whatever happens, it's the Five Elders' order, I just need to do as they say.

Therefore, Sengoku immediately began issuing orders to high-ranking officials such as Sakazuki, taking the lead in changing the subject!

[Sengoku: I don't care what era you pirates are talking about, it has to be the era of our Navy.]

[Kaido: But then again, Shanks turning the grandson of this naval hero into a pirate is indeed a rather significant event of its time, haha.]

[Warring States Period: Hey, watch your mouth...]

[Donquixote Doflamingo: Speaking of which, I wonder who Luffy's father is? His whole family is so powerful, so his father must be pretty amazing too.]

[Koby: Yeah, speaking of which, I've never heard of Vice Admiral Garp's son. He must be a powerful figure too!]

[Warring States Period: Cough cough cough...]

[Sakazuki: Heh, I don't care who this Yonko Shanks is talking about as the new era figure. Anyway, I won't let your so-called new era arrive. The era we Marines envision is completely opposite to the era you pirates are looking for!]

[Kuzan: Is this Luffy the new era Shanks was talking about?]

[Donquixote Doflamingo: If it's just Luffy, this new era doesn't seem very meaningful, does it? Luffy will at most become one of the new Four Emperors. Does he really need this old Four Emperor to save him at the cost of an arm?]

[Sakazuki: I really don't understand why he values ​​Luffy so much! And Luffy is so young at this time, how could Shanks see his future potential?]

[Borsalino: Or is it simply because of his grandfather, Vice Admiral Garp?]

Countless people were secretly terrified as they thought about it!

I feel this is a mystery that is difficult to unravel.

Monkey D. Garp: Actually, I only just found out why Shanks lost his arm... Well, Shanks, I still have to thank you for that!

[Kaido: Garp, don't jump to conclusions so quickly. Shanks might still be after your grandson. Perhaps it's because your grandson possesses something important, like a mysterious treasure...]

Charlotte Katakuri: Indeed, what is it about this little Luffy that has garnered the attention of the Mountain Bandit King, the Lord of the Coast, and the heir to the Pirate King's hat?

[Kaido: Or is it that his Devil Fruit can truly compare to my Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Azure Dragon Mode?]

[Sengoku: Hmph, don't be ridiculous. How could your fish-like Mythical Zoan be comparable to my Human-Human Fruit Mythical Zoan? You know... why is someone calling again? (muttering to himself)]

After receiving another phone call from the Five Elders, beads of sweat poured down Sengoku's face.

He quickly instructed Sakazuki, Borsalino, and the others to continue monitoring the chat group...

[Sakazuki: Hmph, what's the use of all your fancy Devil Fruits? The strongest Devil Fruits are still the Logia-type Devil Fruits of our three Marine Admirals!]

Charlotte Linlin: Speaking of which, Shanks was quite young when he joined the Pirate King's crew, wasn't he? Did Roger recognize his talent so quickly that he passed the straw hat to Shanks?

Charlotte Katakuri: At this time, Shanks also passed his straw hat to a young Luffy, which means he also saw the distant future, right?

[Jin: No matter what, at least Luffy should still be able to become one of the Four Emperors in the future, so Shanks' gamble really did pay off, right?]

……

And so, under these inexplicable orders, the Navy quickly and somewhat awkwardly changed the subject...

And at this time.

A more important scene then appears in the picture.

This caused everyone's attention to start to wander again.

Whitebeard in the scene looked at Shanks thoughtfully, but didn't ask any questions at this moment.

He was just thinking to himself:

A new era?

How interesting...

As someone from the older generation, I really can't see through this world anymore...

Then, Shanks continued in a cold voice:

"By the way, I've been through so many battles and have many scars, but there's only one that I remember very well."

"Those are the three scars on my eyes!"

Shanks is about to get down to the main topic of his meeting with Whitebeard!

Stop Ace and Blackbeard from making contact!!

Chapter 46 The Battle of the Four Emperors! Blackbeard, the Man Shanks Will Never Forget

at this time.

Everyone was extremely curious about Shanks' mysterious scar!

To everyone's surprise, the golden screen posed another question to them!

【Ding! ! 】

[Next, we will begin the Q&A session!]

[Question 5 begins!]

Who inflicted this wound on Shanks?

Upon hearing this question, everyone was once again taken aback.

Kaido: Yeah! Actually, I've been wondering for a while who caused Shanks's eye scar.

[Sakazuki: Yes! This scar is clearly visible on the Red-Haired Pirates' flag, indicating that it holds great significance for Shanks, something he can never forget.]

Charlotte Linlin: I thought it was just an ordinary scar, but it seems Shanks has always been ashamed of it. And he even considers it a very important secret, which means it was definitely inflicted on him by a very important person.

[Gecko Moria: Is there anything else to think about? Right now, only the Lord of the Coast and the Mountain Bandit King can display such strength, right? But in the previous video, I forgot whether Shanks already had scars on his face back then.]

[Shaq Crocodile: Yeah, we were so focused on Shanks's severed arm that we overlooked this little scar...]

The unprecedented powerhouses, the King of the Coast and the Mountain Bandit King, have indeed become a popular answer!

Even many long-standing mysteries can be solved by combining them with the knowledge of hidden masters!

Many people simply answered without thinking, "King of the Coast" or "King of the Mountain Bandits"...

Of course, many people know that this matter is probably not that simple.

[Jhin: It shouldn't be caused by that Sea King again, but rather by a battle with another character, right?]

[Kaido: Indeed, thinking about these issues using normal logic will almost certainly lead to mistakes. This golden screen is just making fun of us, isn't it?]

Charlotte Katakuri: Yeah, who would have guessed that Luffy would be saved by a bolt of lightning?

[Monkey D. Garp: Furthermore, considering Shanks's background of specifically seeking out Whitebeard, Shanks's purpose is definitely something we didn't expect—it concerns a major shift in the future world order!]

[Quinn: It seems that to answer questions, we have to think in outrageous directions?]

Borsalino: Could it be the unfathomably powerful Buggy?

Sakazuki: But it seems that Bucky hasn't shown such terrifying strength on the surface yet.

[Kuzan: Besides, Bucky and Shanks have a pretty good relationship, so it shouldn't come to the point of a full-blown fight.]

[Shakuro Crocodile: Was that Whitebeard's doing? But they don't seem to have any real grudges or conflicts. Besides, Whitebeard became famous much earlier, so he certainly wouldn't directly clash with Shanks!]

[Sengoku: Could it be Kaido or Big Mom? But they are indeed from the older generation! They are remnants of Rocks, and they don't seem like the type to clash with Shanks. So who else could it be?]

[Kaido: Hmph, although I didn't actually leave a scar on Shanks, it's not impossible for me to do so if I really wanted to.]

Charlotte Linlin: If you fight me, you might not just get scars, you might lose your soul too. Mammamamma!

At this point, after eliminating several options, no one could come up with a good answer.

Charlotte Katakuri: Will that be a battle with Hawkeye?

Vista: That's certainly possible. After all, there are only a handful of people who can fight someone like Shanks. But this scar doesn't look like it was left by a sword...

Donquixote Doflamingo: Forget it, I think I'd better not participate in this answer. I've already received enough punishments, and if I continue to be punished, my strength will only decrease...

At this point, everyone was at a loss and could not reach an authoritative answer.

Although I also recognize that this is the fifth question, and the last question to be answered in this round.

But if you really can't answer, then don't get involved.

It's better than forcing yourself to answer questions and then getting punished, right?

……

Then!

The members of the Red-Haired Pirates have all started answering questions!

Shanks: ***** (The answerer has set their answer to be visible only to themselves!!)
