Pirates: Winged Dragon of the Beast Pirates

Half a year ago, Gaji helped the Beast Pirates open a factory to produce artificial Devil Fruit seeds and a farm to grow artificial Devil Fruit in the forest of Kuri.

It only takes half a year from planting to final maturity of the artificial Devil Fruit.

And now, after half a year of growth, the first batch of artificial Devil Fruits have finally matured.

When he learned the news, Ian couldn't help but feel happy.

Now the Beast Pirates are really going to live up to their name.

Uncle Jhin, who was in charge of farm management, set off immediately and returned not long after with the first batch of artificial devil fruits.

"So, is this an artificial devil fruit?"

On the Golden Flying Dragon, all the friends gathered here.

In fact, in line with the principle of acting in full, Ian and his friends are living on the boat these days.

At this time, what was placed in front of them were small boxes. The boxes were all opened, revealing the spiral-shaped fruits inside.

All the friends looked at it curiously. Black Maria picked up one and looked at it carefully, "It doesn't look much different from an ordinary Devil Fruit."

"More than meets the eye,"

Ian said calmly, "Although you can't switch forms at will like a genuine animal devil fruit user, the increase in ability is by no means inferior to a real animal devil fruit."

These artificial devil fruits are made based on the blood factors of the beasts on Ruskena Island.

In terms of strength, it is not comparable to the flawed products made by Caesar in the original work.

Although it is incomparable to the fantasy beast species, and even far inferior to the ancient species, if we use those ordinary animal species as a reference, it can still be about 50-50.

"There are a hundred fruits in the first batch."

Ian said, "There are fifty here."

Otherwise, it has to be Teacher Kai?

It is indeed interesting enough.

He directly gave half of the artificial Devil Fruit to Ian and let him use it freely.

According to Teacher Kai, Ian's subordinates are also very strong, so they deserve even more fruits.

He really, Ian cried to death.

"Anyone interested?"

Ian smiled and said, looking at a certain yellow-haired kid, "Sanji?"

"I'll forget it."

Sanji looked disgusted, "I'm not interested in that bastard father's works."

Ian twitched the corner of his mouth.

You're still being stubborn, right?

I think you have fun using the blood factor and battle suit.

But Sanji really doesn't need an artificial Devil Fruit. If he insists on eating the fruit, at least he has to be a natural type and a fantasy beast species to be worthy of him, right?

"Forget it Kuina, I'm helping you find a suitable Devil Fruit on the black market, then,"

Ian looked at Zoro, who was still happily huddled on the side of the ship stroking the three swords even after two days, "Zoro?"

There are really not many incompetent people on board.

Everyone is a capable person.

"Not interested in."

Zoro didn't even raise his head, "It's enough that I have a sword."

OK.

Ian nodded, sure enough.

"Babanuchi!"

he shouted.

"Sir Ian, I'm here!"

Babanuki, the chief steward on the Golden Flying Dragon, ran over excitedly and looked at Ian with great anticipation.

Even if it's an artificial Devil Fruit, it's still a Devil Fruit!

And according to what Sir Ian said, apart from being unable to transform freely, these fruits are no different in strength from ordinary animal devil fruits!

Is there anything to hesitate about?

Although the ordinary animal system is not very powerful, it is not something that an ordinary pillar like him can easily come into contact with.

"Pick one."

Ian said calmly.

"yes!"

Babanuki rubbed his hands excitedly and stepped forward to carefully look at the artificial Devil Fruits on the deck.

However, you can't tell anything by just looking at them. These fruits have different shapes, and even the fruits cultivated with the blood factors of the same beast have different shapes.

In the end, Babanuki chose a fruit that was more pleasing to the eye, and then eagerly stuffed it into his mouth.

His mouth opened wide enough to shove the entire fruit right into his mouth.

It was obviously very unpalatable, but Babanuki acted as if he had eaten something delicious.

Almost as soon as the fruit entered his stomach, Babanuki's body began to change. His skin gradually turned navy blue and thick cuticles grew.

The trunk began to grow rapidly and turned into a long trunk, and two long tusks extended from the mouth.

ah?

Ian raised an eyebrow.

Is this some wonderful destiny? He actually turned into an elephant.

"Oh oh oh!!"

A strange cry came from Babanuki's mouth, "Power! I feel the power!!"

This guy jumped up with all his strength, flicked his right foot, "Lan Kou!"

The huge vacuum blade suddenly roared out and landed on the sea in the distance, cutting a deep ravine into the sea.

"Lord Ian!"

Babanuki came down and knelt down on one knee in front of Ian excitedly, "My physique has strengthened a lot! It's really amazing!"

Ian smiled.

To a certain extent, artificial devil fruits have some advantages over serious animal types, that is, they will not be killed before they can transform.

"Oh! Feeling interesting?"

As the shadows fell, Solem and Himil came closer, leaning down to look at Babanuki.

"Artificial Devil Fruit, has human technology reached this level?"

Himmel was surprised.

"How about it,"

Ian asked with a smile, "Do you want one? Speaking of which, I have never seen a giant with abilities."

"We respect our original strength more."

Himmel explained and then rejected Ian's proposal, "So Boss Ian, let me forget it. If you eat the Devil Fruit, you won't be able to hunt the beasts in the sea!"

This guy is a hunting maniac.

"Hehehehe! I'm quite interested!"

However, the other person, Solem, said with a smile.

"oh?"

Ian raised his eyebrows, are you going to witness the birth of the Beast Titan today?

"Hahahaha!"

Solem rubbed his hands, "Boss, although it is an artificial Devil Fruit, it should be quite valuable, right?"

Oh, so interested?

Ian twitched his lips and said, "I have no idea of ​​selling it out yet."

Let’s meet internal needs first.

"That's it."

Solem was instantly disappointed. He sighed, "Then forget it. If it's a powerful superhuman, phantom or natural devil fruit, then I can eat it."

You boy still thinks very highly of himself.

However, he does deserve it.

"Then let me help you look for it."

Ian chuckled.

"Hehehehe! That's so generous, boss! Thank you very much!"

Solem was very happy to be stuffed by Ian's cake. He turned back and looked at the other giants on the deck, "Boys, if you want to eat, come forward!"

The giants looked at each other.

Then, several giants stepped forward impatiently, "We want to give it a try!"

The giants are a race that pursues power. Although they value their own power, it is not impossible to rely on foreign objects occasionally.

Although I won’t be able to swim anymore, it’s enough to become stronger!

Ian was certainly not stingy and let them choose.

In the future, the production of artificial devil fruits will only get faster and faster. The first batch took half a year, but the second batch was planted as early as three months ago.

If it weren't for the low efficiency of converting bloodline factors into seeds, the number of the first batch of artificial Devil Fruits might have already exploded.

But it doesn't matter. The first batch of artificial Devil Fruits has been proven to be operational, so a larger factory is ready to be built.

Both Ian and Teacher Kai are ready to speed up the production of artificial devil fruits.

It is foreseeable that in the next few years, the Beast Pirates will organize a large army of ability users.

The giants happily and expectantly ate the fruits they selected.

So immediately, seven beast giants appeared in front of everyone.

There are lions, orangutans, tigers, crocodiles...

"really not bad."

Ian chuckled, it was not inappropriate to go to the Attack on Titan set next door to guest star as a Beast Titan.

"This is the first time I've seen a giant with abilities!"

Black Maria smiled.

"Let's test it quickly!"

Yamato was more impatient than anyone else, "How much stronger you have become!"

"Hehehehe! Let me do it!"

As the leader of the giant mercenaries, Solem stood up without hesitation and said with a smile. He held the war hammer and looked around the seven beast giants, "Who will compete with me?"

"I!"

The seven giants took a step forward at the same time, all with burning eyes.

"Eamonn, it's you!"

Thorem named a certain giant.

"Boss, don't be scared!"

A mane grew around Eamonn's neck and turned into a huge lion giant. "I am stronger than ever before!"

"Hehehehe, right?"

Solem waved to him, "Then come and show me your strength!"

"Then I'm coming!"

Eamon stopped talking nonsense and rushed directly towards Solem with his battle ax in his hand.

Thorem raised the shield in his left hand and blocked Eamon's heavy blow.

Amid the explosion, Solim's expression changed slightly, "You've really become a lot stronger!"

"Hehehe, boss! I told you! I'm super strong now!"

Eamon's free left hand struck hard at Solem's face with a left hook.

However, Solem just smiled and did not dodge, allowing Eamon's fist to hit him hard in the face.

"Tsk,"

Luo couldn't help but gasped, "Does it hurt?"

There is no muscle or fat as a buffer on the face.

Then, after receiving such a punch, Solem only leaned back slightly, his face was turned to the side by the punch, but nothing else happened.

"Hehehehe! It hurts!"

Solem smiled strangely and kicked Emon in the stomach, sending the giant lion flying straight away and almost falling into the sea.

"It is true that you have become a lot stronger, but you are still far from good."

Solem was proud of himself, "If you want to surpass me, you should practice for a few more years!"

"oh!!"

The giants were cheering for his performance.

Ian also clapped his hands.

There is indeed a big gap between the strength of a giant called a hero like Solem and an ordinary giant warrior.

An artificial devil fruit is far from enough to make up for this gap.

No wonder Solem is not interested in artificial devil fruits.

Seeing that there is no hope of challenging the big brother, the beast giants began to consciously compete with their compatriots who did not eat the fruit.

At this time, they showed absolute suppression, and their strength and speed were much stronger than their compatriots.

So, the giants really realized the strength of artificial devil fruits.

The eyes of those giants who did not eat devil fruits became hot when they looked at the artificial devil fruits on the deck.

The final result was that the number of beast giants on the Golden Dragon increased to 28 at once.

Except for the two leading brothers, Ximier and Solem, all the giants evolved into beast giants.

Ian began to worry about one thing. They all became capable people. What if they fell into the sea? With their size, even the fishmen can't save them?

However, the giants' strengthening is not over yet.

One day later.

"Oh! Oh! Oh!!!"

Solem screamed.

At this time, he was wearing a heavy full-body armor, which wrapped his whole body tightly, and even his eyes were covered with special lenses.

Although the armor was heavy, it fit his body very well, shining silver, and it was extraordinary at first glance.

Like him, there was Ximir standing beside him. This fat giant was also wrapped in heavy armor.

"How do you feel?"

Ian looked up at the two and asked with a chuckle.

Although time was tight and the output of Quin alloy was limited, it was enough for Wapol to personally tailor two sets of armor for the two giant leaders.

"Great!"

Solem slapped his hands hard in front of himself, making a clattering sound, but the armor on his body was intact, "What a strong armor!"

"And it's very light!"

Shimier turned into a flexible fat man at this time, jumping around on the deck of the Golden Dragon, "It doesn't affect our activities at all! What an amazing technology!"

No, although the Quin alloy is indeed very light, it is not light at all for such an exaggerated scale, but your strength is too exaggerated.

Ian chuckled, "This is just a prototype. In the future, I will ask them to add various power-assisting devices to the armor and equip it with various weapons for the official version."

These two sets of armor are not equipped with weapons.

In terms of melee weapons, the weapons of the giants are already sophisticated enough, and there is no need to make new ones.

As for the long-range weapons, Ian doesn't think Uncle Quinn can now make long-range weapons stronger than the two giants' hegemony.

For the two giant leaders, armor that can increase their body defense capabilities is enough.

However, heavy armor will definitely affect their mobility to a certain extent, although Ximier said it would not.

Otherwise, let them learn the six styles?

Maybe they can learn domineering at the same time.

"Now, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

Solem clenched his fists and laughed.

Ian also nodded slightly with satisfaction.

Twenty-eight beast giants, plus two giant leaders wearing heavy armor, what else can stop them on the battlefield?

However, it will take some time to let all the giants wear heavy armor.

The factory that manufactures Quin alloy is still under construction, and this metal has not yet started mass production.

These two sets of armor almost emptied Uncle Quin's inventory.

After that, it's time to return to Beehive Island.

Since I have decided to act, I certainly can't stay in Wano Country for too long. The purpose of this trip back has been perfectly achieved.

However, when he came, there was only one ship, the Golden Flying Dragon. When he left, Ian left with a fleet, carrying more than 10,000 beast pirates who were willing to follow him.

Among them were many pillars. Ian distributed the remaining artificial devil fruits of the giants to them.

Although it was an act, the fact was that the beast pirates had split at this time. According to the geographical location of Wano Country and Beehive Island, the two parts can be called West Hundred and East Hundred.

Of course, the news soon reached the ears of the World Government.

"As soon as Ian returned to Onigashima, he challenged Kaido, and the beast pirates split up. A large number of pirates chose to follow Ian to fight Kaido!"

"Although it was nominally an exercise, both sides almost went all out."

"The battle between Ian and Kaido almost destroyed the entire Onigashima, and finally chose to stop without a clear winner."

"Finally, Ian left Wano Country with the pirates who were willing to follow him and went to Beehive Island."

The Five Elders received such a report.

The people who hold the highest power in the world smiled instantly.

"Why didn't anyone get killed!!"

"Don't worry, Ian has already gained the upper hand, and the officers under his command are stronger than Kaido's! There will be another battle when he becomes stronger!"

"By then, only one person will survive!"

That's what the Five Elders think.
