Fishman Island:
"So, that's how it is... Whitebeard is a benefactor to our Fishman Island in the manga?" King Neptune was astonished at this moment.
Jimbei's detailed explanation about the situation of Fishman Island in the manga, where it lacked support for the art store and the Hunters' guild, made him realize the severity of the situation in the so-called Great Pirate Age started by Roger.
"Once the Great Pirate Age began, the suffering of the Fishman people became at least 100 times harsher," Fisher Tiger, who was more aware of human cruelty, especially pirates among humans, added.
"Fortunately, in the real world, we have Rob-sama and his art store... Otherwise, we would have ended up like Fishman Island in the manga, waiting for the compassion of Whitebeard to declare his protection for us..." Suzan said with great appreciation when mentioning Rob's name.
He was the man she loved and cherished in her heart, the man she wanted to give everything she had to.
Her daughter, Shyarly, looked at her with curiosity before whispering in her ear, "He has come, Mom, he is waiting for you inside... That's what the crystal ball told me..."
Suzan's eyes widened, and her breath intensified as she hid the blush on her cheeks under the seriousness of the store goddess before stepping away without anyone noticing under the work curtain.
"Miss Suzan is right; we should be grateful to Rob-san... Oh, she's gone?"
"Well, Miss Suzan is busy, and that's understandable from a senior goddess store..." King Neptune redirected his attention to Jimbei, who was reading the manga with intense concentration.
"Is this Crocodile?... What's wrong with those bastards...?"
"All of them undoubtedly lost to Whitebeard in the past..."
"All of them really want to tear him apart..."
"To be a great figure in this world means having a lot of enemies..."
"That's logical, Jimbei," Fisher Tiger said.

Chapter 529's Events:
—————————
"All the pirates who advance through the Grand Line must pass through Fishman Island…!!!"
"As soon as the great pirate age started… Fishman Island was thrown into chaos…!! A never-ending stream of human pirates… and the Marines pursuing them…!!!"
Jimbei continued to speak about the tragedy of Fishman Island in the Great Pirate Age.
"Many Fishmen and Mermaids were abducted… and sold… but just when we were about to give in to despair, Whitebeard appeared…!!"
At this moment, Whitebeard appeared in the background, saying: ("This island is under my protection!!!")
Jimbei never forgot that day, so much so that he admitted it.
"With those words, nobody dared to lay a hand on Fishman Island…!!!"
"What a power…!!" Jimbei was astonished.
"He has several islands under the protection of his name… It's not right to take him down just because he's a pirate boss…!!!"
"If, by some chance… He was to die… what would happen on these seas...!? The government is very well able to imagine that!!!"
"I wanted to stop this fight, even if it cost me my life!!! I wanted to get you out of here… Ace…!!! Zeeh." Finally, Jimbei declared his true desire.
"Jimbei… That's enough…" said Ace. "You're just making it worse…!!!"
"I haven't given up hope yet… I still have faith… That a miracle or opportunity will present itself!!!" said Jimbei.
At that moment, an additional voice that couldn't bear the silence anymore appeared.
"Kuhahahaha… Things are getting pretty interesting… Kukukuku…!!" In the adjacent cell, a man with scars across his face and a gold alloy in place of his left hand appeared.
"So you're telling me there's a once-in-a-lifetime chance to kill Whitebeard…!!? That gets my blood pumping…!!!"
"…!! You…!!!" Jimbei knew who the speaker was.
"You think you'll take my old man's head…!?" Ace asked mockingly of Crocodile, who immediately responded:
"It's not just me…!!"
As soon as he said that, the laughter of dozens of human monsters sleeping in the eternal darkness prison was heard.
"Gyahahahaha!"
"Kill Whitebeard!!!"
"Uwoh!" "Uwoh!"
"That bastard's gonna die!!? Hyahoo!!!"
"That's great!!! That's the best!!!"
"Get me to the ocean!!! I'll be the one to kill him!!!"
"Lemme fight too!!!" "Gyahahahaha!!!"
"I'll end Whitebeard's reign!!!"
"SHUT UP, ALL OF YOU!!!" exclaimed Jimbei.
"Jimbei…! Fire Fist…!! Remember this well…!! There's no shortage of 'silver medalists' shedding tears… just because they couldn't overcome Whitebeard and Roger…!!! Guhahahahahaha!!!" Crocodile laughed harshly.

Sorbet Kingdom:
"Nfufufu! Who would have expected our star to appear again in the manga? Sir Crocodile, the respected one, Heehawl!" Ivankov laughed at this moment when he recognized Crocodile.
"You must have a lot of hatred for Whitebeard in the manga... Could it be that the person who took your left hand and caused those scars on your face is Whitebeard?"
"That means you were seriously seeking death when you were young in the manga!"
"Lucky for you, you joined our revolutionary army in this life before going to search for Whitebeard!"
"And what's it to you, you pimp!"
Crocodile was perplexed because, at this moment, he was discovering things he didn't know about his counterpart in the manga... He didn't know that Whitebeard was his enemy!
"Your diligent search for Pluton was probably to gain enough power to confront Whitebeard, with the aim of revenge," Dragon spoke at this moment.
"Buwahahaha! The little shrimp went to search for Edward Newgate in the New World to fight him when he heard that he was the strongest in the sea... I can imagine such a scenario after your ass was kicked, you came back to the Grand Line and cried... Lucky for you that you didn't die or become his son."
Hearing that from Garp made Crocodile want to erupt in his face... His words were more provocative than the Okama!
"Big brother Croco! I can make you older so you can train more and get a strong body! You can beat Whitebeard at that time!"
Crocodile looked at two short old women, not knowing which one had just spoken... but he knew that the little girl Bonney had said that.
"It's fine... I have no grudge against Whitebeard in this life..."
…
Returning to Wano Country:
"Gurarararara!"
"All these are my enemies... Ace seems really shocked by this scene..."
"Don't be surprised, my son, they will surely want to tear me apart and see me die..."
"I was the reason for their current situation, so their hatred for me should be real."
Whitebeard was somewhat surprised and happy to see a group of thugs cursing him from hell...
"These thugs dare to think about facing you, hmph! Even scaring little Ace..."
On Whitebeard's shoulder, Stussy cursed the prisoners who wanted to join in killing her beloved.
"Don't worry, my dear Stussy... they're just mobs at this stage, Gurararara!"
"I look forward more and more to seeing what they call the Summit War unfold!"
"Victory will be our ally as we used to be accustomed to, Oyaji!" Marco sat on the other shoulder of Whitebeard like a beloved bird.
"Gurararara! Who knows..."
