Chapter 436 Guests Arriving One After Another
"It's an internal decision. We'll just have to act according to circumstances."
Without specific information, even Roy couldn't make any rash conclusions.
Lex didn't care much: "It's okay, it won't cause any trouble, but I plan to let Venus take Oleini to the Flower House to meet the ancestor after the banquet."
Roy's eyes flickered: "Is it too early?"
"It doesn't matter whether it's early or late. What matters is attitude. Huajian wants to see my attitude, and I also want to see Huajian's attitude. Oleini ate the Dark Fruit, which is a trigger that can lead to Huajian's attitude."
Roy understood and continued:
"We still don't know enough about history. A blank period of a hundred years is not enough for us to cope with everything. There are even greater mysteries deeper in history. We still don't know the full picture of the gods of the ancient times, the gods in the sky, the sea, the hell, and the world tree."
Lex nodded, but his confidence and composure remained unchanged. He said calmly:
"The filth of history will eventually turn to dust, but the glory of Leon exists in this era."
Roy was more confident: "I always believe in you."
After the great war, Rex learned more historical secrets and knew the history that had not been revealed in the original plot. One hundred years before the blank period, in the more distant ancient times, even in the era before the origin of the devil fruit, the world also had gods.
During this trip to the Land of Wano, Oleini also obtained more information from the time traveler Tianyue Shi.
Considering everything he knew, Lex had already come up with an inference.
Im is not just a character from eight hundred years ago. Thousands of years ago, in the ancient times when devil fruits had yet to appear, 'Im' already existed, but his name was not 'Im'.
Today, Im is perhaps just a long-standing demon, occupying the body of a human named Nerona Im.
Lex was always thinking in his mind, but he was not in a hurry and never worried.
He looked around the hall. All the great pirates from the New World had already arrived. Nearly 90% of the big men in this ocean had gathered on Fenghuai Qianli, and many more were on their way.
Lex stood up, and Roy stood up at the same time. Barrett, who was standing beside him, also stood up when he saw this.
In an instant, everyone in the hall stood up from their seats and looked at Lex. Lex smiled faintly and waved gently:
"No problem, you don't have to be so polite."
After that, Lex and Roy left the lakeside villa. Everyone in the hall sat down one by one and continued their previous topic.
Leon Lex is the only king here. Although he doesn't care about worldly etiquette, this is not a reason for them to not care about etiquette.
Walking out of the lakeside villa, Lex saw a man with a pineapple head walking towards him, accompanied by several spirited young men.
"Brother Lex! ~Captain Roy!~"
Marco flashed in front of the two of them, looking excited.
Lex and Roy looked at the young men in front of them and said with a smile:
"Uh-huh, Marco, Thatch, Vista."
"Is everyone here?"
"Well, we were all preparing for the banquet by the lake, and Thatch called us over to help."
"I'm really looking forward to Sachi's craftsmanship."
Lex was very considerate and smiled gently.
Sachi was full of energy and swore on the spot:
“I must make the best dishes in my life!”
“Hmm hahahaha!~”
"Hahaha~"
Rex looked at Marco again. The naive pineapple-headed youth ten years ago has now become the second Admiral-level warrior in the Whitebeard Pirates. After two huge wars and ten years of dedicated training, he has completed the awakening of the mythical beast-Phoenix Fruit and has become a true Admiral-level warrior. He is a pillar of the new world and has a promising future.
"Marco, you're great."
After saying this, Marco was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes became moist. If he remembered correctly, this was the first time in ten years that Brother Lex praised him in front of so many people.
He still remembered the night nine years ago, the year when Brother Rex went out to sea. On that night with cool breeze and starry sky, Brother Rex expressed his expectations for himself. He said that he hoped that one day in the future, the Whitebeard Pirates would be able to sail under the wings of the Phoenix.
Even without father Whitebeard, the Whitebeard Pirates are still a world-class force.
Now Marco can hold his head high and proudly tell the world that as long as he is here, the White Pirates will always be the first-class force in the ocean! ~
Lex patted Marco on the shoulder, and then said to Bista: "You are almost a great swordsman."
Bista immediately became serious and quickly replied: "That's right, it just lacks the finishing touch."
Lex smiled and said, "After the banquet, I will personally guide you."
Vista was flattered and wanted to refuse, but Lex waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to say more.
These young men from the Whitebeard Pirates were acknowledged as younger brothers by Lex, not only because of Whitebeard, but also because of their hard work over the past ten years, the bloody battles in two huge wars, and their dedication in various trade chains.
After Vista broke through to become a great swordsman, Lex had many strong men under his command to guide him. Not to mention the top swordsmen like Golden Lion and Red Earl, even Wang Zhi, Rhine, Gut, Shanuo, Roy, Hirakawa Torashi and others, as long as Lex said a word, these ready-made great swordsmen could personally guide Vista and help this young man to enter the realm of great swordsman.
However, Lex took on the task himself.
The importance and emotion shown in this made even the strong man Bista feel a lump in his throat.
"Thank you, Brother Lex!~"
"Hahahaha, I can't let you call me big brother for nothing."
Roy on the side immediately joked:
"Oh? So you've been calling me second brother for so many years because you feel comfortable ordering me around and being a hands-off boss?"
Roy, the pillar of the new world, can be regarded as the brain center of Lex's side. He has done countless troubles for Lex and is still doing so.
Hearing this, Lex laughed heartily: "That's because there will never be another person like my second brother in this ocean."
Roy laughed even more happily: "You are quite good at talking."
Lex and Roy smiled at each other, saying nothing.
At this moment, the maple and locust trees on the west coast are thousands of miles away.
A naval warship directly under the World Government docked, and a bald old man in a kimono with a strange long sword across his body walked down the steps slowly and stepped onto this magnificent island.
Venus was a little disappointed because Rex did not come out to greet him personally. Instead, he was greeted by Agulas Gutt, the brains of the Flying Pirates.
"Times have changed. Today is different from the past."
Venus sighed, and Gutt naturally heard the loneliness and complaints in Venus's words, but he ignored it and just said:
"Welcome, sir. The young master has gone to pick up Gion, so I didn't come to greet you."
Venus naturally didn't believe this reason, but she didn't say anything more. She just followed Gut to the villa in the middle of the lake.
Now Leon Lex naturally doesn't need to look at anyone's face anymore.
Of course, apart from his Governor of the South China Sea, who was about to turn 27, his slightly arrogant wife and the love of his life.
