“I do want to meet Whitebeard. But finding him won’t be easy.”

Shin really wanted to meet Whitebeard. If they could have a fight, that would be great. After all, the current Whitebeard was at his peak.

Unlike the future Whitebeard, who was not only old but also plagued by injuries, his strength reduced by at least forty percent.

But Whitebeard roamed the seas, with no fixed abode. So, finding him wasn’t easy.

“At this moment, I suddenly realize we’re missing something.”

Shin said, stroking his chin.

“What are we missing?” Robin asked curiously.

“Intel. We basically have no intel. If we had a source of information, finding Whitebeard would be simple.” Shin shrugged.

‘Should I form a faction? Like a pirate crew?’ Having come to the One Piece world, not forming a pirate crew would be a waste.

“Shin, are you really planning to find Whitebeard?” Olvia asked Shin seriously.

“Yes. I had no goal before, but now I do. Next, we’ll find Whitebeard.” Shin said very seriously.

Of course, Shin wasn’t after the title of “World’s Strongest Man,” but for Whitebeard’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

Also, Shin really wanted to find the Hobby-Hobby Fruit. At this time, the Hobby-Hobby Fruit shouldn’t have been eaten by Sugar yet—it was unknown if Sugar had even joined the Donquixote Family.

But if that was the case, perhaps the Donquixote Family had obtained the Hobby-Hobby Fruit and then given it to Sugar to eat.

Olvia didn’t know the many things Shin was thinking. But at this moment, a hint of worry appeared on Olvia’s face.

“Shin, I think it’s better not to find Whitebeard. Even if you can defeat Whitebeard, you’ll become an enemy of the Whitebeard Pirates.”

They had already angered the Marines and the World Government. If they crossed the strongest pirate, Whitebeard, then they would probably have a hard time moving on this sea.

“Olvia, you don’t need to worry so much.”

Shin chuckled. The only one in the Whitebeard Pirates he was interested in was Whitebeard himself.

And Whitebeard’s other sons… they could be said to be good. But if Whitebeard, this pillar, collapsed, the Whitebeard Pirates would definitely fall apart.

But Shin He wasn’t planning on killing Whitebeard, though. He wanted to copy the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and test his own strength.

If he didn’t see it now, he probably wouldn’t have a chance to see Whitebeard’s peak strength in the future.

Whitebeard’s age was about the same as Sengoku and Garp’s, but his physical condition was worse. He was strong, but his body had countless hidden injuries from the past. He could suppress them now—but when he got older, he wouldn’t be able to.

————

“Alright.” Olvia didn’t try to persuade Shin anymore.

Having known Shin for a while, Olvia also knew that if Shin made up his mind, he would definitely not change it.

“I don’t know where Whitebeard is. We’ll have to ask some pirates.”

The Whitebeard Pirates’ fleet was relatively large. He had no intel now, but that didn’t mean other pirate crews didn’t.

Their luck wasn’t bad. They randomly encountered a few pirate crews. Some indeed didn’t know, but by chance, one pirate crew actually knew the whereabouts of the Whitebeard Pirates.

So, based on the information they got, they headed towards the Whitebeard Pirates.

“Shin-nii, look! There’s a pirate crew ahead! It seems to be the recently famous Red-Haired Pirates!”

Hancock ran to Shin’s side, tugging on the sunbathing Shin.

“The Red-Haired Pirates?”

Shin took the newspaper off his head and put it aside—then stood up and looked into the distance. Looking at the pirate flag on the ship, it really was the flag of the Red-Haired Pirates.

————

At the same time, the Red-Haired Pirates had also discovered Shin and his group.

“No pirate flag. They’re probably not pirates.”

Lucky Roux took a bite of meat, then said to Shanks.

“Not necessarily. Perhaps they’re deliberately hiding it. There are many such pirate crews,” Benn Beckman wouldn’t be so careless.

In the New World, one absolutely could not be careless. Otherwise, only a dead end awaited.

Benn Beckman was the vice-captain of the Red-Haired Pirates, with very formidable strength. Likely stronger than Kaido’s All-Stars.

“I can see clearly now. It’s Shin Uzumaki, the mysterious man who severely injured the Marine Fleet Admiral.”

Shanks put down the telescope in his hand and said very solemnly to his crewmates on the ship.

“Shin Uzumaki? Should we take a detour?” Benn Beckman asked Shanks.

Though he was the vice-captain, Benn Beckman usually just gave suggestions. The final decision was still up to Shanks, the captain.

“Captain, running away would be embarrassing…” Lucky Roux said.

“I agree.”

Yasopp nodded. If they ran away just by seeing someone, that would be too shameful. It would be a lifelong disgrace.

Yasopp was Usopp’s father, a very outstanding sniper.

“Let’s go meet him.”

A smile appeared on Shanks’s face. He also wanted to meet this legendary figure, Shin Uzumaki.

He had never heard of him before. The Ohara Buster Call incident was what brought him to people’s attention.

And after the battle with Kong, Shin became completely famous throughout the world. There were very few people who didn’t know Shin now.

For example, the pirates Shin had encountered earlier had told him everything they knew, terrified of him.

————

“They’re speeding up towards us. Do they want to fight us?” Hancock held the hilt of Ame no Habakiri, somewhat eager to try.

“Hancock, your swordsmanship isn’t good enough yet,” Shin said to Hancock, seeing her eagerness.

“Oh.”

Hancock put away her thoughts. Indeed, though she had practiced swordsmanship for two years—she was only at the entry level.

But in these two years, Hancock’s strength had indeed improved a lot. Practicing swordsmanship could also greatly improve her stamina.

This way, her Devil Fruit ability could be used more times.

She’d even mastered two of the Six Powers—Shave and Finger Pistol. They were the easiest to learn and the most useful in battle, especially Shave. It was a high-speed movement technique, incredibly versatile.
