One Piece: I Start with a Married Woman, I Am the Evil Admiral!

Chapter 176 Shanks' Shock

This is extremely disadvantageous for him, for Bloweier, and for Castald.

Because if his mother decides to go to any lengths to deal with Aini, then he, Bloweier, and Castald would all be considered traitors.

The outcome is self-evident.

One word: Death!

Perospero and Smoothie exchanged another glance; they naturally understood this as well.

They valued Snag, Bloweier, and Castard highly. After all, they were like brothers and sisters...

Perospero thought for a moment, then said, "Mom, if what Snag said is true, it is indeed a good thing for us."

Smoothie immediately chimed in, "Mom, I think so too. With Aini's terrifying strength and his Holy Land background, his status and power will likely only rise higher. Add to that the unique nature of the Four Seas Exchange he established... perhaps it really will be as he says."

Moreover, trusting him this once won't cost us anything.

It's just protecting his caravan within our sphere of influence, what's the big deal?

What we gain, however, is the ability to obtain all sorts of resources we desire from them.

Hearing Perospero and Smoothie speak up for him, Snag cleverly suggested, "Mom...we can just have him send over a shipment first. Anyway, according to his rules, one of Bloweller or Castald will personally escort it back."

Whether it's true or false, we'll find out by testing him once.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman frowned slightly. However, compared to before, her expression was much better now, clearly indicating that she was somewhat tempted.

However, I still have some reservations.

Finally, her gaze fell back on Snag: "The scientists in Doflamingo's hands have also fallen into his hands? Then, did the giant-scale experiments we conducted before also fall into his hands?"

After saying that, he added, "There are also artificial Devil Fruits."

These words were spoken.

Snag was secretly delighted, but at the same time wished he could slap himself a few times.

He actually forgot about this... Whether it's giantification or artificial Devil Fruits, these are things his mother values ​​most.

So he immediately replied, "That's true, Mom."

"Mommy...Mommy...!"

The older woman couldn't help but let out her signature laugh: "Okay...we'll do it your way."

At this point, her gaze sharpened again as she looked at Snag: "But we need to get to the bottom of the gigantification experiments and the artificial Devil Fruits. And... what if something unexpected happens to this..."

Although the words were not finished, the meaning was crystal clear.

"Gurgle..."

Snag swallowed hard, but nodded firmly. "Mom, don't worry...there won't be any accidents. Otherwise, I'll offer my head..."

Hearing Snag's words, Mom nodded in satisfaction.

He then added, "Bloney and Castaïd have betrayed the Charlotte family and should be treated as traitors. A bounty should be placed on their heads..."

"Yes!"

Perospero, Smoothie, and Snack exchanged glances; they had no objections. After all, they all understood that the bounty was meant to give the Beasts Pirates an explanation.

Therefore, this bounty is indeed a real bounty.

But it's only a matter of appearances...

.........

Meanwhile, the Whitebeard Pirates.

Edward Newgate, the "Whitebeard," narrowed his eyes slightly. He then looked at Marco, the "Phoenix," with a hint of disbelief: "You mean that Marine brat was evenly matched with Kaido?"

Marco nodded: "That's true."

Ace, Jozu, and Vista exchanged glances, their expressions turning serious.

I've heard this navy's name so many times lately, it's become incredibly familiar. And it's only been a short time since this guy first appeared on the world stage!

They're now appearing in the same event as Kaido.

This is terrifying.

Especially for Ace, Annie had a profound impact on him. You see, he had previously gone to hunt down Blackbeard. But before he could even catch up with Blackbeard, he learned that Blackbeard had died at Annie's hands.

In a way, Aini helped him clean house.

However, the appearance of such a figure in the Navy is not a good thing for any pirate. And for some reason, there's a feeling that this guy will pose a threat to him... to the entire Whitebeard Pirates.

........

The Red-Haired Pirates.

Ben Beckman sat next to the redhead, looking at the newspaper in his hand.

His expression was somewhat solemn, and he said with a sigh, "I never expected that the Navy would produce such a figure. I'm afraid the Navy's power will only grow stronger."

Redhead: "???"

He looked puzzled, then his gaze fell on the newspaper in Ben Beckman's hand: "What, is there any big news today?"

Ben Beckman handed over the newspaper: "This is indeed big news, and it's big news that will shake the whole world."

Redhead took the newspaper and glanced at it. His eyes widened in disbelief.

Finally, he exclaimed in surprise, "This little guy is already so amazing?"

"???"

Ben Beckman looked puzzled, because he sensed something in the red hair's tone. He then looked at the red hair and saw a hint of reminiscence on the red hair's face.

Their gaze immediately turned scrutinizing.

Finally, with a hint of probing, he asked, "Do you know this kid?"

Redhead nodded: "I guess so! Although I've never seen him before..."

Although he boarded Roger's ship at the age of fifteen, being born in the Holy Land, he could still contact it if he wanted to. He could even obtain some news from the Holy Land... Meanwhile, Figarando Jessica's out-of-wedlock pregnancy caused quite a stir back then.

Back when he was still in the Holy Land, she was the only one who treated him kindly. Therefore, he cared a great deal about her affairs.

So, I tried to find out more.

It was later learned that she had a child with an ordinary man.

The child's name is Aini.

There are countless people named Enni in the world, so how could Shanks recognize at a glance that the Enni in the newspaper was that child?

That's because...

If you look closely, the child bears a striking resemblance to Figarando Jessica. And if you look even closer, he shares some similarities with him, especially his eyebrows and eyes.

They look exactly alike.

Moreover, their expressions are quite similar. It's just that he's a bit more rugged, while this kid is more delicate.

If he's a rough, uncouth man, then this kid is a domineering young master from a noble family.

Their temperaments are completely different.

So, even though they share some similarities, no one connects them...
