Chương 1263: Luffy goes to sea

Teach stood firmly on the simple and dilapidated raft, his eyes flashing with great excitement and ambition.

He carefully raised the pirate flag that he had prepared for a long time, and it fluttered in the sea breeze.

"Hahahahahahaha... Dad, you're old! Now, this sea needs young people to lead it. A new era for our Blackbeard Pirates has begun!"

Teach laughed wildly and opened his arms as if to embrace the whole world.

In an instant, endless black aura spread out from his hands like billowing smoke, quickly covering everything around him.

"Now that the Blackbeard Pirates have been officially established, our first step is to recruit strong and ambitious crew members!"

As he spoke, Blackbeard Teach confidently took out a crumpled old newspaper.

On the yellowed paper, a mysterious and dangerous island was clearly visible - it was the place called Gaya Island, and the Mogu Town in it was even more famous.

"Yes, this is it! Gaya Island and the dreaded Mogu Town. Let us start our journey of conquest from now on!"

Teach chose this target without hesitation, his eyes full of determination to win.

At this time, the glorious journey of the Blackbeard Pirates has begun.

Teach gripped the wooden paddle tightly and paddled hard, pushing the raft through the waves towards Mogu Town.

Gaya Island, an island located on the seventh route in the first half of the Grand Line, has always been a gathering place for notorious pirates.

The island is a mixed bag and full of dangers, but it is precisely because of this that it attracts countless people who are eager for adventure and wealth.

It is worth mentioning that Gaya Island is located below Sky Island. Although it is nominally under the jurisdiction of the navy, in fact, due to its remote geographical location and complex situation, the navy's control over this place is relatively weak.

In addition, this place is far away from the Whitebeard Pirates' sphere of influence, so for now, the Whitebeard Pirates do not dare to come to Gaya Island openly to cause trouble for Teach.

However, this does not mean that Teach can sit back and relax.

After all, if you want to make a name for yourself in this turbulent sea, hiding alone is far from enough.

Right now, the most urgent thing he needs to do is to continuously develop and strengthen his own strength and actively seek out those extremely powerful partners to join his pirate group.

Only in this way can he truly realize his grand dream of dominating the ocean.

Before he had enough strength to defeat Whitebeard, Teach knew that he had to keep a low profile and be patient, and never dare to be too arrogant.

While he was carefully planning how to recruit a group of capable crew members to expand his pirate group.

And in the distant East China Sea, Luffy, the man who is regarded as the protagonist of the whole world, finally embarked on his adventure.

On the vast ocean, the sun shines, the waves sparkle, the sky is as blue as a gem, and there are no clouds, presenting excellent weather conditions.

On the sea, a small and simple boat was floating alone.

At the bow stood a vigorous young man with a tattered wooden barrel beside him.

Luffy's eyes were firm and he said loudly with confidence: "The first thing to do is to gather like-minded partners! My goal is to find ten reliable companions. Well, let's go!"

After saying this, he stood on the swaying boat with high spirits, facing the wind.

Then, Luffy raised his head and roared to the vast sky: "I will be the Pirate King!"

His voice was like thunder, resounding through the sky, as if announcing his determination and ambition to the world.

With this cry, a new era began.

At the same time, in various seas such as the North Sea, the West Sea, and the South China Sea, there is a group of protagonists with their own dreams and ambitions who appear on the scene one after another, hoisting their sails and bravely sailing towards the unknown depths of the ocean.

Some of them aspire to become world-famous pirates.

These young figures, like bright stars, are about to shine brightly on this vast ocean.

The old era is gradually coming to an end, and the new era has already begun!

At the moment when Luffy resolutely embarked on his journey to the sea, Charlotte, who was far away on Kami Island in the New World, suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

At this moment, Charlotte was sitting in her study, handling some daily affairs.

However, the sudden impulse made him involuntarily stop what he was doing and slowly raise his head from his seat.

His deep and sharp eyes looked through the window to the distant east. Then, Charlotte subconsciously glanced at the calendar on the wall, which clearly marked: May 1520,, Haiyuan Calendar.

When he saw the date, Charlotte's pupils suddenly shrank and he was stunned for a moment.

Vague memories resurfaced.

After a moment, Charlotte seemed to come to his senses. He quickly stood up and walked to the window with big strides.

"Luffy went out to sea..."

At this moment, Charlotte's mood was extremely complicated. Various thoughts were intertwined in his mind, making him not know how to express his deepest feelings for a moment.

Just like that, Charlotte stared out the window quietly, and time seemed to freeze at this moment.

He remained motionless like a statue and fell into a long silence.

At this moment! A dark shadow suddenly appeared behind Charlotte like a ghost.

The person who came didn't make any sound. If it weren't for Charlotte's keen perception, he probably wouldn't have noticed anyone approaching.

"You seem very anxious. What happened? What are you worried about?"

As the words fell, a red figure gradually emerged.

I saw that this person had a slender figure and was wearing a crimson purple coat that fluttered in the wind like a burning flame.

Hearing this voice that couldn't be more familiar, Charlotte was stunned for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on her face.

"Old friend, after all these years, you are still so elusive! Every time you appear, we are caught off guard."

As Charlotte spoke, she slowly turned her head and looked at the figure who had disappeared for a long time - the Red Earl.

When Charlotte's eyes fell on the still young and handsome face of the Red Earl, memories of the past flooded into her mind like a tide.

All the ups and downs, life and death tests that they had experienced together, and the scene when they first met, all came to mind one by one.
