Chapter 228: Shanks contacts Whitebeard
A month passed by in silence,
"Regis, tell me what's happening around the world?" Blaize asked with a yawn as he relaxed in a recliner.
"Blaize-san, it's as you expected. Something's happening in the sea!
First, Red Hair sent a messenger named Rockstar with a letter to contact Whitebeard but the latter ripped up Shanks's letter.
After Crocodile's defeat, a meeting was ordered for the remaining Warlords of the Sea. But only three people Donquixote Doflamingo, Bartholomew Kuma, and Mihawk attended.
At the meeting, Lafitte, a former peace officer from West Blue, came to recommend Blackbeard in place of Crocodile's vacant seat. He possibly joined the Blackbeard pirates.
But, Fleet Admiral Sengoku rejected it, saying the Warlord position couldn't be given to any nameless person.
And, yesterday this happened..." Saying this, Regis handed him a Newspaper.
The front page of the newspaper displayed the picture of the smoky ruins of Ennies Loby. Seeing this, Blaize smiled. 'It's been some time since I last saw that brat Luffy!'
"I heard Garp-san set out to capture this pirate and end his pirate journey. With Vice Admiral Garp taking action, Straw Hat pirates are done for." Regis commented.
'Which Grandfather captures his own grandson?' Blaize shook his head. He wasn't interested in the Grandfather and Grandson game.
Regis then looked at Kuina, as knew Kuina's friend Zoro joined this Pirate group. Kuina looked at Zoro's wanted poster, 'Come, Zoro. I will wait for you at the top! I won't lose!'
"What about Shanks and Whitebeard, is there any news of their meeting?" Blaize asked, interested.
As an Earthling who watched One Piece, the first clash between Whitebeard and Shanks could be said as an Epic scene.
Since he has the ability, he can't miss that!
"Well, Shanks disappeared from his territory while the Marine unit in charge of watching his movements was clueless about his whereabouts.
If nothing goes wrong, Shanks will make contact with Whitebeard in a day or two." Regis voiced his thoughts and continued,
"And, I got this news from an old friend. We didn't receive any report from Headquarters. Meaning, Fleet Admiral doesn't want us to know about it."
They know Fleet Admiral Sengoku's afraid Blaize will do something.
They knew Blaize well, he wasn't someone to be underestimated.
Meanwhile at Marine Headquarters,
After hearing Blaize's arrival, Sengoku stood up from his seat and nearly cursed aloud.
"What's he doing there, how did he get the news?" Sengoku frowned and found it not impossible to know assuming Blaize's current reputation.
"Make sure he doesn't do anything stupid and keep him on the ship," Sengoku ordered via the Den Den Mushi.
Hearing the command, the Marine responsible for communication stuttered. "This...Fleet Admiral Sengoku, it's Vice Admiral Blaize we can't"
"Tell him it's Fleet Admiral's order." Saying this, Sengoku ended the communication gritting his teeth.

On Whitebeard's ship, Whitebeard is informed of Shanks's arrival like in the original series.
Shanks boarded Whitebeard's ship while Marco ordered the newcomers to go inside the ship. But, it was too late as some of the whitebeard pirates began to fall with a loud thud.
With every step Shanks takes, his Conqueror's haki increases by one level. When he finally reached the enemy's deck, his haki peaked to the limit.
"Ohhh...what a momentum. Didn't I say it will be exciting to watch?" Blaize exclaimed.
Regis and Kuina who were behind him also watched the grandeur; Shanks's overpowering entrance. This time, they agreed with Blaize. It was awesome to watch.
Whitebeard and Shanks discussed face to face while savoring the wine brought by Shanks while Whitebeard's men left the ship.
Don't know what went wrong, but after a few minutes into the discussion, both the Yonko's clashed. "Boom!" With their collision, the cloud above split from the impact.
After a second, a powerful Haki shockwave traveled past everyone knocking out a few. Contrary to expectations, Whitebeard and Shanks didn't get into a full-scale battle.
They ended the discussion with the last clash!
