Shanks left, but Shitian had to figure out a lot of things.

Shitian stood on the deck, watching the Rend Foss go away, and asked Margau next to him, "What's wrong with Akagami (Red Hair)? What did we do to stimulate him recently?"

Margau scratched her head and said, "I don't think so!

We have no other actions recently except for preparing to participate in the One Piece World Expo, and it doesn't involve the Akagami (Red Hair) Pirates. "

Although Shitian was disgusted with Shanks' self-righteous attitude, he also knew that he wasn't a person who looked for trouble.

Therefore, Shi Tian would like to know what happened that made Shanks willing to risk a war with the Whitebeard Pirates to say those words.

At this moment, Jozu came over and said, "Captain, the newcomer will be here soon. Don't you want to go and see?"

"Newcomer?" Shitian had a big question mark on his head and asked, "What newcomer?"

Generally, there are only a few situations when a newcomer joins a pirate group.

One is when a pirate group takes a fancy to someone during an adventure and invites them on board.

Most of the main members of The Whitebeard Pirates and Akagami (Red Hair) Pirates get on board in this way.

The second situation is when a pirate group collects defeated enemies, and there are indeed many people who join when they can't beat them.

For example, many of the pirates under Kaido's command have challenged him.

There is another situation that only applies to the famous big pirates.

These big pirates, for some purpose, will use their fame to gather pirates on the sea to form a big ship group.

There are very few cases like Luffy who became the leader of a big ship group because of one incident.

The Whitebeard Pirates have been staying on a deserted island recently, and there are no other challengers after defeating Strange Monk Urki and Hawkins.

Shitian hasn't invited other pirate groups to form an alliance.

Where did the so-called newcomer come from?

Margau patted her head and said, "I almost forgot about it. Didn't you say that it was necessary to absorb some new blood?

So I asked the captains to find some talented youngsters in our territory. They should be the ones who brought all the youngsters who were willing to join us. "

Shitian was stunned, then smiled bitterly and said, "I just said it casually. Why are you so serious and mobilized the entire pirate regiment to do it?"

Margau sighed and said, "Don't I think what you said makes sense?"

Jozu said in confusion, "Isn't it just recruiting new people?

Why are you guys reacting so strongly? "

Shitian looked at him and said, "I think I know why Red Hair came to me."

Shi Tian finally understood everything. Akagami (Red Hair) thought that the big move of the Whitebeard Pirates was to recruit new people.

You know, although pirates are the main enemy of the World Government.

But when dealing with pirates, the World Government has never been as serious as dealing with O 'Hara or the Revolutionary Army.

On the one hand, they have no way to eliminate the production of pirates. Even if they clean up this batch of pirates, new pirates will appear.

On the other hand, the group of pirates exists around the core of the Captain.

And human beings are fragile creatures. When attacked, they will bleed and get injured, and they can't avoid aging due to the passage of time.

As long as there is no leader, the pirate regiment can't be maintained, just like the disbandment of Roger's Pirates.

After all, not every pirate regiment in the sea is like The Whitebeard Pirates with Shitian as their successor.

So generally speaking, the change of era is often accompanied by the fall of the old pirate regiment's flag and the rise of the new flag.

The reason for this phenomenon is related to the way pirates absorb new blood. Those three ways rely on the personal strength and charm of the Captain.

That's why it leads to the end of the monkeys scattering when the tree falls.

Of course, the pirates of the chaos camp will not have the concept of systematic training of newcomers.

So most newcomers will form their own pirate regiment to go out to sea.

Some time ago, many old pirates applied to Shitian, hoping to retire and leave The Whitebeard Pirates.

It may be that the change of era made these people feel a little lost, so they chose to leave.

Shitian is not Bigmom. He didn't embarrass those people and sent them away after clinking glasses with them.

And just after that, Shitian sighed about the aging population of The Whitebeard Pirates.

He didn't expect to be heard by Margau, and she really made a big move to recruit new members.

This really exceeded Shitian's expectations. Shitian didn't want to develop The Whitebeard Pirates into an organization that can be passed down from generation to generation.

It was also in order to adventure freely with other people that Shitian took over the position of Captain.

But the action of absorbing new blood, especially the action of The Whitebeard Pirates, has stimulated many people.

This will make many people feel that Shitian is expanding his power and is about to make a big move.

One of the Yonkō (Four Emperors), especially the action of Shitian, The Whitebeard Pirates, recognized as the strongest pirate regiment, who can ignore it?

Akagami (Red Hair), who has always been nosy, came to find him.

Shitian didn't have to guess. The World Government must have held a lot of meetings recently to discuss how to deal with this storm.

Jozu also understood everything after Margau explained it to him. He touched his head and said, "What should we do? Everyone sent the newcomers here.

We can't just send them back, can we? "
