"Thank you, thank you, you are so gentle!!"

After sending away the two patients who had thanked him so much, Marco wiped the sweat from his forehead. He raised his head and glanced at the high-hanging sun,"The sun is really fierce today, isn't it Ace~"

He turned his head , asked Ace who was sitting there with his upper body naked, wearing a straw hat, a white cloth strip and a hoe hanging on his shoulders, eating rice balls in front of the door.

"Yes~"

Sweat dripped down and wet some freckles on his face, Ace said vaguely:

"I felt very hot while doing farm work today"

"You are obviously a fire, how can you feel the heat~"

Marco sat down next to him teasingly and picked up a rice ball.

"How's the farm work going?"

"Fortunately, this quarter's harvest should be about the same."

The two of them were talking casually like country folk. On the hillside not far from them, Whitebeard's cemetery and tombstone were buried, as well as his weapon, the Naginata Congunkiri.

From the top After the war ended, they transported their father's body to his hometown for a funeral.

So far, more than 40 other fleet forces have returned to the sea to make a living, and these sixteen captains, They stayed to accompany their father.

The sea without their father had no attraction for them at all.

At the beginning, Ace also felt very self-blame and guilt, thinking it was his own fault. And it killed my father.

He once fell into a vicious cycle of self-depression, just like Luffy went crazy on the Nine Snakes Island after the war.

But later, thanks to the enlightenment of Marco and others like Jinbe, he slowly recovered. Energized.

Now on the island, Marco acts as a barefoot doctor. He is responsible for doing farm work and making fires for cooking.

Away from the many disputes on the sea, life in the country is quite comfortable.

But when the two of them got together, While we were chatting together, suddenly, a person came towards us from the ground in the distance.

"Yo, Yi Zang, what day is it today and why did you think of coming to see us?"

When he saw the visitor, Marco greeted him cordially.

The visitor was the captain of the 16th division of the Whitebeard Pirates, the original member of the Hanaryu sect, a retainer of Kozuki, and the brother of Kiku no Cheng, one of the Nine Red Scabbard Heroes. He followed Izo went out to sea with Kozuki Oden.

When Marco said hello, Ace next to him stopped eating rice balls.

He saw Izo with a dignified look on his face, and he was holding a with a phone bug

"What happened to Yizang?"

Seeing Yi Zang's appearance, Marco also noticed something was wrong, and his tone became calmer.

"Cat Viper just called me."

Wearing a pink kimono, with a Japanese-style spotted red cloth tied irregularly around his waist, Izo said with a heavy face and heart-shaped lipstick on his lips.

"Cat viper? A nostalgic smile broke out on Marco

's face,"We haven't seen each other for nearly twenty years. It's really nostalgic. Does he have anything to do with you?""

"Well, it’s about my main attacker, Kozuki Oden."Yizang closed his eyes in pain.

"Kozuki Oden? What happened to Oden?"

Seeing this, Marco's smile faded from his face and he said in a deep voice

"Kozuki Oden? Your lord?!"

Ace on the side said in surprise.

"How can it be? I remember he seemed very young. How could he be your lord?!"

"young?! Marco suddenly realized something was wrong,"

Ace, you said Oden is very young?"!"

According to Kozuki Oden's age, he followed Roger to Laffdru when he was thirty-four years old. So today, twenty-two years later, he is already fifty-six years old.

How could he be so young?!

"That's right~"

Ace himself was also confused,"Four years ago, before I came to challenge my father, I accidentally ended up living in Wano Country."

"I made many friends, one of whom was named Kozuki Oden. He tried his best to recall and describe the situation at that time,"He was wearing a sleeveless kimono, with a shuriken rope tied around his waist, handcuffs on his hands, and a mace without a spike as a weapon......."

"No, Oden's weapon never had a mace!

Marco suddenly retorted,"Oden uses the two-sword style, and his sabers are [Tianyu Yuzhan] and [Yama], both of which belong to the ranks of the twenty-one great swords.""

Marco's face was a little solemn. He had already realized that something was wrong with the situation.

After Ace joined the Whitebeard Pirates two years ago, he used the technology from Wano to weave a straw hat for little Oz.

They asked Ace about Wano Country and Kozuki Oden, and the answer they got was that Oden was still living on the island. At that time, they thought Kaido had occupied Wano Country, and nothing serious happened to Oden. Still fighting Kaido.

Since he didn't come to us for help, then he must be able to solve it by himself, right?

It is with this idea and great confidence in Kozuki Oden's strength that they I didn’t ask clearly about the actual situation and didn’t take it seriously.

But now it seems that things are a bit beyond our understanding and control!!

"What did he say about Cat Viper?"Marco's eyes have calmed down.

"Is such that......"

With a trembling tone and suppressing his grief, Izo told Marco and Ace everything that happened in Wano Country eighteen years ago.

There was silence

"Cat Viper came to me specifically and asked if I would like to return to Wano Country together."

Finally, Yi Zang choked up and told the purpose of Cat Viper's call.

"The punishment of Kurotan Orochi, Kaido, and Kakubaki?! Marco couldn't help but take a deep breath,"

So many things have happened!"!"

He suddenly opened his eyes wide, and a cold light flashed instantly.

At this moment, he once again showed the demeanor of the most powerful pirate group's deputy in the past.

"How dare you treat our family like this, Kaido?......"

If they didn't understand the situation before, they would trust Oden and not take any action.

So now that I have learned about Oden's death and Kaido's disgusting behavior, I can't remain indifferent at all!!
