An alliance between Whitebeard and Mugiwara no Luffy confirmed?
Izo blinked surprised at the headline. But then the cross-dresser was amused when he looked at the picture of the article. How didn't anyone notice that someone was taking a photo at the moment?
It showed Marco and Luffy during their make-up-make-out-session after the fight with the Marines.
Izo giggled as the started to search for a scissor to cut the picture out. Their den-den-mushi wouldn't be quiet for the next days, but it would spare them some time gather their allies to make it public to them.

Makino smiled softly at the picture that showed Luffy and most likely the person he loved.
She couldn't think that her little boy, who was like a mix of a son and a brother to her, would just kiss someone without having feelings for this person. Especially not like this.
But Luffy looked happy in the picture. Even if there were some tear strains, only weakly noticeable, on his cheeks and little blood spots on the body of the blonde.
Her boy must have thought that he lost his lover. This was the only way, she could explain the tears and the blood.
A sound made Makino turn her head. In a crib next to her was a baby with tufts of red hair. It seemed to have woken up from its slumber.
"Did you have a nice slumber, sweetie?" Makino asked softly and lifted the baby up in her arms. It seemed happy to be in its mothers and looked around curiously.
"This is your uncle Luffy with his lover. It will still be a long time before you are able to meet him", Makino said when she noticed the dark eyes of Shanks and her child were fixed on the picture.
The baby just made a happy sound and patted the picture.

Dadan was getting impatient. How long did these idiots of her need to get the den-den-mushi from Makino?
She took a drag from her cigarette to calm her down. But she didn't need to be calm. The angrier she was, the better. She had someone to roast after all.
There did go a picture of her youngest foster-son Luffy kissing a blonde (attractive, but she wouldn't say that out loud) male, who was on the same crew as Ace, around the world.
"Boss, we got everything."
Finally, the idiots were back.
Dadan didn't take long to dial the number which was written behind Ace's name on the paper, which Makino had given her idiots with the den-den-mushi.
She skipped the greeting when someone answered and demanded directly to talk to Portgas D Ace.
"A woman who sounds like a bear? That can only be one person. Yo, Dadan", Ace said after she had to wait for a few minutes. A vein popped on her heard.
"Don't just greet me with a 'Yo Dadan', you ungrateful brat. Now give me the guy who kissed you brother so I can roast him."
Laughter could be heard from Ace. What did this brat find so funny? She may only be a bandit in the East Blue, but she didn't care who she needed to hit for her brats.
Dadan didn't have any problem beating Garp after the war for putting her foster-sons through so much shit without helping them. So she wouldn't care if she had to hit a crew member of a Yonko.
"Sorry, Dadan. But that is not possible at the moment. At least, if you don't want Luffy to hear it. He is clingier to Marco than ever. Maybe because they had a fight before this happened. But I don't think it is a good idea to roast Marco now. Luffy will get all whiny and pouty that you feel like you kicked a lost puppy. But I can promise you that Sabo and I invite you to a pineapple-Phoenix-feast if he hurts Luffy."
