"You know..." Whitebeard began. "I won't be alive for much longer," he admitted.

Luffy looked at him with a rather serious expression, nodding, understanding what the man meant by those words. "Yes..." he said.

"My family is not strong enough to defend against other Yonko... as you can see... I hoped to have a powerful successor, but I haven't found anyone yet and believed that Ace would become that person," Whitebeard admitted while Luffy nodded.

After all, he really saw Ace as his potential successor, even to the person who would find the One Piece hidden by his father and lead the battle that would involve the entire world. However, his death was approaching, and Luffy didn't know if Whitebeard still believed Ace would be that person; in fact, it wouldn't matter.

"Do you think everyone would follow me just like that? I doubt it," Luffy spoke immediately, reading Whitebeard's thoughts.

"I don't think so... but I fear for their lives when they try to defend my legacy with their current strength..." he murmured.

"Unfortunately, that will happen, Whitebeard. But if they really want to join my flag, I will accept them," Luffy said. He would not deny these people; they were strong and reliable, at least more so than most of those Hachi mentioned when he went to Sabaody. The sea was infested with pirates looking for Luffy wanting to join his fleet.

Luffy wanted to have an army, but not in that way; after all, he preferred quality, and these pirates were often just criminals looking to commit crimes under the shadows of a criminal flag.

"..." Whitebeard looked at him for a while and decided to continue. "What are your plans for the New World?"

"I plan to stay in Paradise for another year since I will train and perfect everything I've learned. We will go to the New World as soon as this time passes and start conquering the islands of the New World by stealing them from the other Yonkos," Luffy said, smiling.

"You plan to start a fight against everyone at once?" Whitebeard was surprised by this statement.

"Yes, I already have conflicts with Kaido and Big Mom, so I don't mind messing up the entire New World until I create my own territory before stealing all the red Poneglyphs with the location of Laugh Tale," Luffy said with confidence.

"Do you think you will be able to dominate this sea? Do you understand what it means to find Roger's secret?" he asked with an intense look, and Luffy just smiled.

"I know very well, I've been preparing for this since I left East Blue. You can see, I have the most powerful crew of all because even if in my current state I can't reach the level of a Yonko, I have many companions who are on par with commanders and will be even stronger," Luffy said, clenching his fist.

"Before my powers return to me, I will be as strong as any Yonko just with my Haki and physical body," Luffy declared, "I even pondered giving you a beating."

"Gurararara. Arrogant brat. Very well, I would like to leave my territories under your flag... when I depart with my crew." In the end, Whitebeard spoke his thoughts.

"I will go to the New World in a year, I will be willing to take whoever wants from your crew if you are not alive by then, but try to stay alive, old man," Luffy said with a satisfied smile.

"Very well, if that guy conquers my territories by then, expel him from there as best as you can," Whitebeard didn't seem very confident he would live until then.

"Yes, Teach is someone I intend to give a beating to as soon as I see him," Luffy said.

"Gurararara! It seems this old man can finally rest," Whitebeard said with some satisfaction.

"Well, if you see Roger on the other side, tell him I will surpass him," Luffy said and began to get up. "I will go talk to my crew, after all, there are still things I must do on this island." He began to walk away from Whitebeard after that, heading to the main part of the castle.

Whitebeard was left alone, watching Luffy's back as he walked away. 'Tell Roger that he will surpass him...' He thought of Luffy's words.

"Gurararararara. Could it really be him, Roger?" Whitebeard couldn't help but comment in the end while sighing alone.

He had to admit that he had little time left to live and was happy to spend it with his family, but he could also rest in peace knowing that his children would still have a powerful ally, and that if it depended on him, Luffy would have his territories and fleet as long as he could protect them.

Luffy returned to the throne room, which was now infested with pirates. As he passed through, he was recognized and greeted with admiration, gratitude, and even fear by Whitebeard's fleet pirates and their captains, until he finally reached the person he wanted to talk to.

"Shira," Luffy called to the mermaid.

"Luffy-Sama!" Shirahoshi approached Luffy.

"Damn... how can he be so powerful... he wasn't a Devil Fruit user...?! How can he still be much stronger than a fish-man in this place!" Hody Jones muttered angrily while his companions remained silent, frustrated by the situation.

More and more fish-men appeared until there were 10,000 of them, with Wadatsumi still groaning from his injuries.

"That damn human!" Some fish-men complained.

"He must not be far... let's call the Kraken!" Hody Jones immediately said.

"Should we beat the drum?" ____ asked, surprised.

"Yes. Call him," he said as they prepared to finish off Zoro with hatred for the humiliation they had suffered from that human.

It didn't take long for a huge horn to echo through the depths of the sea, and the next moment the sea seemed agitated as a huge shadow emerged, coming to the fish-man district below the island.

"Kraken, I want you to help me kill a human!" Hody Jones spoke with a firm tone, while the Kraken seemed to nod.

"Now let's find the human," Hody Jones said as he prepared to go after Zoro, but at that moment, a huge shadow appeared above him.

Then a sound exploded in the middle of the sea the next moment, "SERRRRUUUUUUMMMMMEEEEEEE," an object at high speed traversed the sea and went straight for the Kraken before it could react, with the strange name.

Luffy appeared in front of him inside his bubble on the Kraken's face, while his arm was coated with Haki, and he punched the cheek, making it sink immediately as the Kraken fell knocked out backward. "Serume, I'm going to make you my pet!" Luffy said excitedly as Shirahoshi flew to fight the 10,000 fish-men with her trident.
