Whitebeard 17th Division - Chapter 5
Chapter 5: Walter’s decision
“No…not Armament Haki? Dad, stop kidding me, you can’t tell me, Brother Walter, his skin is tougher than a sword.”
Blenheim, the captain of the 9th Division next to Whitebeard, paused after hearing his father’s words, then joking.
“Yeah, Daddy, if it wasn’t for Armament Haki, that would be too ridiculous. How can the toughness of human skin be comparable to a sword. If it is really according to Daddy, then Walter might not die even with bullets???”
“No… Impossible, how can there be such a person in the world, who is born with a body of steel.”
As soon as he said this, someone on the other side of Whitebeard began to refute.
“It doesn’t have to be a body of steel, or, over the years, he has pondered unexpected physical skills.”
One of them fumbled for his chin and nodded: “It’s quite reasonable, but Walter, who has always been low-key, didn’t expect to have such a move, and it’s no wonder that he said he wanted to be the captain, and Dad agreed directly.”
Hearing his sons discuss this, Whitebeard squinted and laughed.
“Goo la la la…”
“You guys, it’s wrong, the world is so big, there are all kinds of wonders. If you want to talk about this man of steel, isn’t that guy Linlin a good example?”
As soon as Whitebeard’s words came out, the expressions of everyone present became solemn.
“Linlin? Dad, what you’re saying… is this Linlin Charlotte Linlin?”
“Isn’t this nonsense what you said, the Linlin that Dad said is naturally Charlotte Linlin.”
“Many years ago, I heard from my father that the woman’s body was really as tough as steel, and even had strange powers.”
“yes!”
Whitebeard nodded, although he was a little reluctant to mention his past on the ship ‘Rocks’, but in front of his sons, he felt it was necessary to mention this kind of special person.
“Back then, I still remember Linlin’s tough body and strange strength.”
“That’s also in a sparring, but our sparring is different from your current sparring. The price of losing will be your life.”
“Linlin, some members of the Rocks crew who were directly shocked by their tough body and strange strength did not dare to act rashly.”
“And she, because of the competition, caught the attention of Rocks. In the end, Linlin did not disappoint Rocks, and soon became a confidant.”
The only serious look on Whitebeard’s face is to mention ‘Rocks’.
“Then… Dad, according to what you said, is it possible that Brother Walter, like the old woman, was born with a body of steel and a strange power?” The fifth division captain, Vista, asked.
“You can’t go wrong. I observed it during Marco’s battle just now. It’s very similar to that guy Linlin.” Whitebeard explained.
“Hey…. I didn’t expect that there would be such a special guy in our Whitebeard Pirates. If you haven’t learned Haki yet, it seems to have the same power as Haki. If you learn Haki, Tsk tsk tsk, Haki and his steel body have a bright future.” The seventh division captain Rakuyo took a breath and said.
“If it’s special, that bastard from Teach is also one.”
As soon as a certain crew member’s voice fell, the squad leader immediately shouted: “Shut up.”
“Sorry, Dad!!!”
Whitebeard just smiled, didn’t take it seriously, and looked at Walter.
“Alas… As expected of the captain of the first division, I lost.”
Walter looked at Marco and smiled lightly.
Marco felt a little guilty at this time. In this battle, he felt that he was invincible.
“No, it should be me who lost, I used Devil Fruit ability.” Marco said calmly.
“What are you talking about, the rules of the competition don’t say you can’t use the Devil Fruit ability, but I’m not discouraged. I’ll definitely win when I compete next time.” Walter’s eyes leaked affirmation.
Hearing Walter say this, Marco sighed softly, he knew that if he continued to talk about winning and losing, it would only make Walter unhappy, so he nodded: “I’m waiting for you.”
After that, he dropped the sword with only the handle left in his hand, then walked to Walter’s side, put an arm around his shoulder, and said with a smile: “I really didn’t expect that you have a body like this. Such a strange force, it scared me a little bit.”
“Marco, it’s more than that. According to my father, this kid Walter also has a special physique, a natural body of steel.” On the other side, the captain of a certain team reminded with a smile.
As soon as he heard this, Marco couldn’t help but punch Walter’s abdomen lightly, and then joked: “Okay, what you are born with is really enviable.”
“Come on, brothers, let’s celebrate the birth of the ‘Seventeenth Division’ of the Whitebeard Pirates.”
Following Marco’s words, the people on the boat crowded around, and then threw Walter up, caught it, threw it up, and caught it.
Seeing this warm scene, a happy smile appeared on Whitebeard’s mouth.
This… is his dream.
…………………………..
Time passed quickly, and on the deck of the ship, basically everyone was very drunk, and some were tired from playing. They were mixed in the drunk crowd, lying on the floor together and sleeping soundly.
And at this moment, somewhat similar to the scene in the morning, Walter sat cross-legged in front of Whitebeard.
“Are you sure? Walter.”
Whitebeard asked.
“Well, I figured it out. Only by going out and practicing can I get the best growth. Under your protection, my growth is very slow.” Walter said calmly.
