"Here?" Ike looked at the treasure map in his hand, sowhat uncertain. After a mont's hesitation, he asked, "Big brother, are you sure this is the right place?"
"Of course it is!"
Newgate said confidently, "This is the island. Didn't expect it to be Pineapple Island!"
"Pineapple Island…"
"Hmm…"
Ike rubbed his chin as he observed the island before him.
It had been another half a month since he took two more concubines.
During that ti, he had learned quite a lot.
For example—
The island before him, Pineapple Island, was quite famous in the New World.
The reason was simple.
The entire island was ford from a single, gigantic pineapple.
In other words—
The island itself was a pineapple.
As for that…
Ike's reaction was simply mild surprise.
After all—
This was the New World.
In a place like this, no matter how bizarre or rare an island was, it wasn't anything unusual.
Completely normal.
"According to the treasure map, the Supre Grade blade is at the very top of Pineapple Island."
Ike flipped through the map and quickly confird the location.
"Gurararara~~~"
Newgate held his naginata and laughed loudly. "n! Attack!"
"OOOH!"
A thunderous roar responded.
As the pirate ship docked, Ike and Newgate led around forty n onto Pineapple Island, leaving behind over a dozen crew mbers and logistics staff to guard the ship.
The group walked across the island.
There were no living creatures here—
The entire island was just one massive pineapple.
But—
If that were the case, wouldn't the island have already been thoroughly exploited?
Well…
The pineapples here tasted absolutely terrible.
No joke—Ike personally tried one, and his face twisted instantly.
"Gurararara~~~"
Newgate laughed teasingly. "See? I told you! Pineapple Island's pineapples are horribly disgusting."
"I believe you now." Ike nodded seriously.
The taste was unbelievable.
You could tell it was a pineapple—
But "delicious" had nothing to do with it.
It was simply awful.
Ridiculously awful.
Even Ike found it absurd.
What kind of pineapple could taste this bad?
While complaining and chatting—
The group eventually reached the center of Pineapple Island.
At the center stood an enormous pineapple, over fifty to sixty ters tall.
According to the map, the Supre Grade blade was at the very top.
However—
Just as they arrived—
Ike and Newgate both stopped simultaneously.
Soone was coming.
"Soone's here." Ike narrowed his eyes slightly.
His talent might not compare to his brother's monstrous level, but his physical skills and Haki were still solid.
At the very least—
He could be considered mid-tier strength on the seas.
Roughly equivalent to a weaker Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral.
"Ike!" Newgate's expression turned serious. "Be careful. The opponent's presence is strong."
"Don't worry, big brother." Ike smiled and nodded. "I won't be careless. I've got three concubines waiting at ho—and a child on the way. I don't plan on dying here."
"Gurararara~~~"
Hearing that, Newgate burst into laughter. "You really know how to talk!"
"But!"
He gripped his naginata firmly, his gaze sharp. "That's right! I haven't even seen my nephew or niece yet! I'm not going down here. n! Prepare for battle!"
"Yes!"
"Whitebeard!"
With a thunderous roar, the forty pirates drew their weapons, their eyes fierce like savage beasts.
Step. Step.
Heavy footsteps echoed.
A towering figure, nearly six ters tall, erged.
His muscles were like iron.
If Newgate's physique was perfectly balanced—
This man's build was a massive inverted triangle, overwhelmingly imposing.
He had long black hair, a beard reaching his abdon, and wore heavy armor, carrying a massive greatsword on his back.
He stroked his beard calmly, showing no surprise at seeing Ike, Newgate, and their group.
That was natural—
If they could sense him with Observation Haki, he could sense them as well.
His side had around forty n too.
For a mont—
The two groups stood evenly matched in numbers.
"Hmm…"
Ike observed the man carefully and said, "Captain of the Five Peaks Pirates… Wang Zhi. Big brother, he's considered a 'super rookie' just like you."
"Gurararara~~~"
"Wang Zhi, huh!"
Newgate's eyes burned with battle intent as he said arrogantly, "Perfect! I've been wanting to see what kind of strength soone like —a so-called super rookie—really has!"
"The Edward brothers…"
Wang Zhi narrowed his eyes.
He hadn't expected to encounter them here.
Compared to Newgate—
Ike wasn't as famous.
But as his younger brother—
And a mber of the Edward Family—
His na had already begun to spread across the seas.
