Pirates: Winged Dragon of the Beast Pirates

"Anyway, Kuzan is now one of us."

Kuzan showed a gentle smile and greeted the cadres of the Beasts Pirates in front of him.

Ian formally introduced him to everyone in the Beasts Pirates.

To be honest, Kuzan was a little nervous at this time.

This nervousness is almost comparable to when he officially joined the Navy Headquarters from the recruit training camp.

I wonder if it will be pleasant to get along with new colleagues.

He thought so.

"Huh, a former admiral of the navy? That's all."

It was Mr. Barrett who looked at him from beginning to end and made this evaluation.

Kuzan felt that he had nothing to refute about his evaluation.

After all, when this man was active on the sea, it was Mr. Sengoku who served as the admiral of the navy.

Mr. Sengoku, who has now become the admiral of the navy, is of course much stronger than himself, and Kuzan has a clear understanding of this.

"Hmph, you'd better not do anything to betray Ian, or I won't forgive you."

The one who warned him coldly was the snake concubine Hancock, who was said to be one of Ian's two concubines.

She is indeed a super beautiful woman. It is said that many newspapers have rated her as the most beautiful woman in the world.

Ian, this bastard, is really lucky. It's okay that such a beautiful woman is in love with him, and there is also a Yamato who is also very close to him.

The close Yamato also spoke at this time, "Great! I always felt it was a pity that I didn't win against you last time! Let's have a showdown later to see who is the most powerful ice user in the world!"

"I admit defeat."

Kuzan spoke cleanly.

Are you kidding? Who wants to duel with the boss's girlfriend?

Isn't this equivalent to him going to challenge the Celestial Dragons when he was still the admiral of the navy?

No matter who wins or loses, there will be no good results, right?

Do you understand the workplace rules of the admiral of the navy?

The appropriate benefits of dealing with people and things.

And this girl is really too strong. Since they are now friendly forces, Kuzan really has no intention of fighting this girl.

It's meaningless, isn't it?

"Damn it!!"

Yamato was furious.

Anyway, Ian introduced all the cadres of the Beasts Pirates who were left on Onigashima to Kuzan one by one.

In fact, Kuzan knew many of these guys, after all, they were all famous figures on the wanted list.

But there was only one guy who was very special.

Tezoro.

Although this man was somewhat famous in the world, he appeared more in the newspaper as an actor and singer.

No one took him seriously, but when Ian introduced him, he said that Tezoro was his most important assistant.

This seems to be a very remarkable man, Kuzan thought so.

But overall, the meeting with new colleagues this time was relatively smooth.

Basically no one made things difficult for him.

But this kind of thing is also normal.

Kuzan believes that he still has some strength. Even if he wants to make trouble for him, few people in the entire Beasts Pirates have the qualifications.

After the meeting, Ian asked Tiqi to take Kuzan to visit Onigashima and learn more about this island where he would stay for quite a long time in the future.

Tiqi had just experienced something similar not long ago, so it was perfect for him to lead the way.

"The building we are in now is the center of Onigashima, and it is the residence of Lord Ian and the cadres."

Tiqi took Kuzan down from the castle tower, "You can also choose a room you like here later."

Now, there is no good room to choose, after all, I came too late.

Kuzan thought so.

Coming out of the castle tower, several children were fighting in the wide square outside.

Boys and girls who turned into dinosaurs.

A cat-man girl holding a long sword and fighting another boy holding three swords.

And, fighting with a boy with yellow hair and wearing a strange battle suit——

"Dragon?"

Kuzan was stunned.

A pink dragon hovered over the square, spitting out a hot column of fire from its mouth.

Then the yellow-haired boy jumped up and kicked the flames away.

That was indeed a dragon, right?

Except for the different color and much smaller size, it was exactly the same as Kaido!

It could even spit fire! It could also float in the sky by grabbing clouds!

But how could there be two identical devil fruits in the world?

"Haha! You were shocked, right?"

Teach laughed, "I was also shocked when I saw it for the first time."

"Among so many young people in the pirate group, Ace is the most special."

"The devil fruit he ate is a replica of Kaido's Blue Dragon Fruit."

"What?"

Kuzan was completely confused.

It's not that he didn't know about the fruit.

On the contrary, he personally gave the replica of the Blue Dragon Fruit to Ian!

But he really never thought that the fruit could actually give people the ability to transform into a dragon!

Wasn't the fruit a failure? Now it seems that where did it fail?

Wait!

So, Ian not only knew about the existence of the fruit a long time ago, but he even knew that the fruit was successful?

Kuzan couldn't help but have a guess in his mind.

Could it be that that guy Ian has known Dr. Vegapunk for a long time?

Is everything a ploy on their part?

hiss!

Kuzan couldn't help but gasp. If this was the case, then Ian would be too terrible. He was only thirteen years old at that time.

"They are all amazing kids,"

Tiqi didn't know Kuzan's mental journey, so he just introduced him to himself, "Runti and Peggy Wan are siblings. They joined the Beast Pirates when they were very young. Lord Ian personally Go get them back."

Speaking of this incident, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

When Lord Ian went to pick up the siblings, it was the beginning of his feud with the Whitebeard Pirates.

At that time, Sir Ian had already shocked the whole world, but at that time, no one could have imagined that he could actually reach this point now.

"Zoron and Kuina are children brought back from the East China Sea by Sir Ian. Both of them are training with the goal of becoming the strongest swordsmen."

Teach's introduction continued, "Sanji is the third son of the Vinsmoke family. He is the crystallization of the Vinsmoke family's highest technology. He is a born monster in the true sense."

"Then there's Ace. How talented he is, you can understand just by thinking about why Sir Ian gave him that fruit."

"Ah la la, they all seem amazing."

Kuzan sighed softly.

These children are indeed monsters among their peers.

"By the way, there is also a little Uta, you should be very familiar with it,"

Teach smiled, "But she's recording now."

"Uta?"

Kuzan also smiled, "No matter which island in the New World, you can hear her singing every day."

"Even across the world, countless people risked being investigated and punished by the government to listen to her live broadcast on time."

"It is said that the girl was a red-haired child. Later, something happened and she came back with Sir Ian." Teach said.

"Red hair?"

Kuzan was surprised again, "Does that red-haired Shanks actually have a child?"

I have never heard of such a thing.

The two walked forward while chatting.

Teach thoughtfully introduced various areas inside Ghost Island to Kuzan.

Commercial street, dormitory, restaurant, Quinn's workshop, Kozuki Sukiyaki's forge.

Kuzan was not very interested in any of these. What interested him most was the orcs on the island who were so grand and ostentatious.

"Are they all people with artificial devil fruit abilities?"

He couldn't help but ask aloud.

It’s not news that the Beast Pirates have created artificial Devil Fruits.

The beast giants under Ian's command have already shocked the whole world.

But Kuzan didn't expect there to be so many.

On Onigashima, you can see a man-made Devil Fruit user almost every few steps you take.

Teach's tone was inevitably a bit sad, "New artificial Devil Fruits mature every month. To this day, the number of artificial Devil Fruit users under Lord Ian's command is in the thousands, including a large number of giant."

Kuzan couldn't help but be speechless.

Although he is a man-made Devil Fruit user, he is still a user with abilities.

Thousands of capable user legions, what kind of exaggerated force is this?

"It's more than that,"

Teach added, "Quinn has also developed a special potion that can make controlled beasts and artificial Devil Fruit users go berserk and increase their power again."

"It is said that on this basis, the increase in abilities of artificial Devil Fruit users has surpassed that of real animal-type ability users."

"..."

Kuzan no longer knew what to say.

The Beast Pirates were really much stronger than he imagined.

With the shock brought by those with artificial devil fruit abilities, and then meeting those giants and even tyrants on the ghost island, Kuzan had nothing to be surprised about.

The two of them moved from the inside of the island to the outside of the island.

"The bottom of Wano Country is the territory of fish and mermaids,"

Teach warned, "So you must not use your abilities casually. There may be villages of fish and mermaids under any sea area."

"Currently, hundreds of thousands of fishmen and mermaids have settled in Wano Country. It can almost be regarded as the second Fishman Island."

The Beast Pirates and Fish-Man Island are indeed completely bound together.

Kuzan sighed in his heart.

But this sigh was quickly put aside by him, because he saw many beautiful mermaid ladies dancing on the sea.

If these beautiful mermaids were to appear on the sea controlled by the government, they would probably attract a large number of human traffickers immediately.

Everyone knows that these mermaids are the favorite slaves of Tianlong Renmeng.

But here they can live freely and peacefully.

It's amazing.

After a rough tour of Onigashima, Teach took Kuzan back to the castle tower, preparing to report to Ian to see if the adult had any other arrangements.

They had just climbed onto the castle tower when a roar suddenly came from outside Onigashima.

The huge blue dragon flew in from the eyes of the Onigashima skeleton, all the way to the top of the castle tower.

"Oh! Boss Kaido is back!"

Teach said.

Of course Kuzan knew it was Kaido, but besides Kaido, he also saw someone else.

Qinglong landed on the terrace at the top of the castle tower.

When Teacher Kai restored his prototype, the two people he brought back also landed lightly.

Kuzan saw the black-haired girl.

My heart was instantly occupied by an extremely complicated emotion.

The black-haired girl suddenly saw him when she looked around in surprise.

Visible to the naked eye, a look of horror appeared on the girl's face, and she subconsciously stepped back.

"What's wrong? Miss Robin?"

Dorag noticed Robin's panic and asked subconsciously.

"Maybe he was scared."

Ian stepped onto the terrace.

He smiled at Teacher Kai and said, "Thank you, Teacher Kai."

"Hmph, don't send me to do such boring things in the future!"

Teacher Kai walked in with a cold snort.

He was very unhappy about this business trip.

There was no good fight at all, and all the time was wasted on the road.

"Long time no see, Dorag, how are you doing?"

Kuzan watched helplessly as Ian walked up to Dorag and started chatting with him.

If he was still a marine, he would never have imagined until his death that there was still friendship between the Beast Pirates and the Revolutionary Army.

Isn't this really a joke?

"Let's go and have a nice chat."

Kuzan saw Ian leading Dorag inside.

Just as he was about to enter the house, Ian turned back to Kuzan and said, "Kuzan, treat your old acquaintance well."

An old acquaintance?

I never thought that I could use such a title to describe my relationship with this girl.

Kuzan sighed and walked towards the girl with heavy steps.

"You, why are you here?"

Robin looked wary, and his body was even trembling slightly.

She will never forget how much despair the man in front of O'Hara brought her eleven years ago!

"Ah la la, let's get laid off and find another job,"

Kuzan said quietly, "It's not easy for middle-aged unemployed people to find a good job again."

"So, the admiral who once claimed to be just has now become a pirate?"

Robin's words were full of ridicule.

"How mean,"

Kuzan sighed, and then he said seriously, "Girl, since Ian said that we are old acquaintances, as acquaintances meet again after a long separation, I will tell you some good news."

Robin didn't speak, just looked at him warily.

But for such a vigilant girl, Kuzan made her break the power immediately with just one word.

"Sauro is alive."

Kuzan said.

"..."

Robin looked at him blankly.

The girl who has been called a genius since she was a child feels that her brain is not enough at this time.

This short sentence made her fall into complete confusion.

It wasn't until more than ten seconds later that she reacted belatedly. Her eyes began to moisten and her voice became trembling, "What did you say?"

"Sauro is alive,"

Kuzan said seriously, "It's in Elbaf, the country of war! He brought there all the information collected by O'Hara's scholars."

"It's not just you, Nicole Robin, O'Hara's legacy lives on in this world."

"If you doubt the authenticity of this matter, you can ask Ian later. He also knows about this matter and received the information on ancient technology given by Sauro."

The girl couldn't hold back her tears.

"Sauro, are you still alive?"

"After all, that guy is also a good friend of mine. How could I kill him directly?"

Kuzan sighed, "I'm really sorry for what happened back then. The order I received at that time was just to erase the scholars. I didn't know it would develop to that point in the end."

"But now looking at it, erasing the scholars was the worst idea, but I didn't realize it at the time."

"If you want revenge, then help Ian. Whether you want to take revenge on me or the World Government, there is no more suitable person than him."

The girl looked at him with extremely complicated eyes.
