Pirates: Winged Dragon of the Beast Pirates

Ian had long known where Hades was buried in Wano.

There is a detailed record of this incident in the historical text of Alabasta.

Now all we need to do is dig out Hades.

However, it is actually not an easy task to dig out the ship buried deep in the ground.

Simply digging is not difficult. Barrett is the best at this kind of project. He can pull Hades up from the ground alone.

But the trouble is that high walls have been built around the country of Wano, and the inland sea has been accumulated, and the place where Hades is buried has been submerged by the sea.

So according to the normal process, if you want to dig out Pluto, you must first destroy the high wall and let the sea water vent.

This is the so-called founding of the country of peace.

But Ian feels that Wano Country is pretty good now.

If we directly destroy the high wall and make the inland sea disappear, what will the fish and mermaids living in the inland sea do?

It is not an easy task to house hundreds of thousands of murlocs and merfolk.

Let’s wait until we conquer the world.

And, more importantly, it is not just the sea water that blocks the excavation work, otherwise Barrett would have to dive directly into the water to work.

In order to prevent Pluto from being directly dug out by people from Wano Country, Joeyboy also took out a second layer of insurance.

Pluto is buried deep underground in magma.

Theoretically speaking, you have to rely on the Elephant Lord to extinguish the magma before Pluto can be excavated.

So, Ian simply went out on his own.

But before going to dig up Hades, Ian is now touring Wano with the red hair.

"Is this the territory that Oden used to belong to?"

Nine miles away, Ian walked with red hair on the streets of this regional city.

"Was this place as prosperous back then as it is now?"

This is a quite prosperous city.

Even the red-haired man who has traveled all over the country over the years and has seen almost every town on the sea has to admit this.

It doesn’t matter that it’s vast in area, but it’s even more lively inside.

Various shops are lined up in rows, and the products sold are so numerous that the red hair is almost dazzled.

It is really difficult for a city with prosperous commerce not to be prosperous.

"How is that possible?"

Before Ian could speak, Yamato smiled and said, "This used to be just an ordinary poor town."

"That guy Kozuki Oden is really good, but he is probably not suitable for running a country."

Ian said calmly.

Kozuki Oden initially just wanted to be a free adventurer, and he actually did a pretty good job in this regard.

Kozuki Oden was actually not that annoying during the time he was adventuring on the sea.

But later he was bound by so-called responsibilities and became a clown.

The Kuri he governed back then was actually just like that. It didn't even reach the average level of Wano Country, and it was barely enough for the local residents to have enough to eat.

"yes,"

The red-haired man said with some emotion, "Although Oden is very powerful, his brain is weak."

Even he had to admit that Uncle Oden was more suitable to be a pirate or the king of a country, which was still too far away for him.

"It's you, Ian,"

The redhead looked around, "You are really respected."

Ian did not deliberately cover his face when he came out this time, so when he walked on this street, everyone along the way bowed to him respectfully.

But of course the red-haired man could see that the respect of these residents did not come from fear, but respect from the heart in the true sense.

Ian really manages this country very well.

If Oden knew what was happening now, would he still fight with the Beasts Pirates, and would he die because of it?

When he wanted to do this, the redhead suddenly felt a little ashamed.

No matter what, Oden's fight against the invading Beast Pirates was the right thing to do.

On the contrary, he, who is now collaborating with the Beasts Pirates, deserves to be despised.

With such a wry smile, the red-haired man said, "Let's go, there's nothing to see here anymore, let's go to the next place."

Although I'm sorry for Oden and Mrs. Shi, looking at it now, I have no other choice.

The world is calling Ian.

As a tour guide, Ian naturally doesn't mind this.

So next Ian took him to visit the Jiuli forest.

Small humans live there, where they help the Beast Pirates cultivate artificial devil fruits.

The red-haired man marveled at the artificial devil fruit planting site.

After all, Ian told him that although they were artificial Devil Fruits, due to the special selection of materials, the power provided by these fakes may not be as good as real animal Devil Fruits.

After being surprised, Ian took Red Hair to Rabbit Bowl and took him to visit the mine there.

The huge scale of Hailou Quarry surprised Hongfa.

He had never seen so many sea tower stones in his life.

The miners working in these mines also concerned him a lot.

All the miners looked very tired because of the intensity of the work.

So much so that when he visited the mine, Red Hair secretly felt sad for the miners.

However, these obviously very tired miners often have hopeful smiles on their faces.

Red Hair soon learned that in return for their intense work, these miners also received high wages, even much higher than those workers working in factories.

The Beast Pirates never forced them to work in the mines, but they were attracted by the high wages.

The redhead smiled and praised Ian's generosity.

But Ian said, "Wealth is only wealth when it circulates. Rather than hiding wealth in my own treasure house, I prefer to hide it in the pockets of the people."

"After all, no matter how much they spend, wealth will eventually circulate in my hands."

The red-haired man didn't quite understand the concept that Ian was talking about, but he appreciated what Ian said.

Letting citizens have wealth, no matter how you think about it, is not a bad thing, right?

Next, Ian and Yamato, as hosts, took Red Hair to visit various regions of the country one by one.

Finally, they came to the center of this country, the Flower Capital, or the original center.

After all, Ian, the great king of Wano, has rarely stayed in this city, but has always stayed on Onigashima.

Although this city is no longer the political center of Wano, the two titles of economic and cultural center are still well retained.

The scale of the city has expanded many times compared to the past, and the originally low wooden buildings have gradually transitioned into tall buildings.

The bustling scene made the redhead almost unable to take his eyes away.

"This should be the most prosperous city in the world, right?"

The redhead couldn't help but marvel.

At least he has never seen a city more prosperous than this city.

Then Ian took him to the center of the Flower City, the castle tower built on a big tree.

"Lord Ian!"

Many senior officials from Wano Kingdom knelt neatly outside the castle tower, waiting for Ian's arrival.

Speaking of which, these officials had not seen Ian for a long time.

Or strictly speaking, it has been fifteen years since Ian became the king of Wano at the age of eight. During these fifteen years, he has hardly been in this castle tower, and the officials who govern this country There are even rare opportunities to meet him.

Ian's management of Wano Country has always been remote management.

Anyway, he has the ninja army led by Fu Lu Shou to help him monitor the officials, so he doesn't have to worry about what those guys have.

At this time, many officials kneeling here even saw Ian for the first time.

The redhead smiled slightly.

This was the first time I was truly aware of the power Ian held.

The coverage of his power is not only the country of Wano, but also covers the entire New World.

Ian did not pay attention to these officials, but led the red hair straight into the secret passage of the castle tower and went all the way down.

"Is there such a place?"

The red-haired man looked out in surprise along the window on the wall of the stairs going down.

Outside the glass window is a deep sea. If you look towards the bottom of the sea, you can see some buildings buried deep under the water.

"The country of Wano was not like this eight hundred years ago."

Ian said casually, "Joyboy built high walls around Wano Country, blocking the outflow of mountain water, and finally formed an inland sea that submerged the original land of Wano Country."

"So, the current land was actually newly developed later?"

The red-haired man said in surprise, "And what is submerged by the sea in front of us is the original town of Wano more than 800 years ago."

"The so-called founding of Wano is to destroy those walls, so that the country can communicate with the outside world without any obstacles, and at the same time, it also reveals the true appearance of Wano."

Ian said.

"So,"

The red-haired man said seriously, "What are we here for now?"

"Originally, if we want to dig that thing out, we need to let the country of Wano be founded first,"

Ian said, "And we also need the help of that giant elephant."

"However, I think the current situation in Wano Country is very good, and there is no need to make sudden changes. Besides, I don't have the ability to control that elephant, so,"

"I just have to come over and figure it out myself."

That thing? Which thing?

The red-haired man suddenly became startled.

"Ian..."

He didn't understand.

"arrive."

At the bottom of the secret passage, Ian stopped.

The historical text of the road sign of Wano is placed here.

However, this is not Ian's final destination this time.

It has to go further down.

"Is this where it turns out to be?"

Yamato opened her mouth, she really didn't expect it.

"I was a little surprised when I first found out."

Ian stamped his feet, "But it's right down here."

Who could have imagined it? Not only is there a road sign and historical text hidden here, but Pluto is even directly underneath it.

"..."

The red-haired man said nothing. He probably realized what Ian was here for.

Was he originally in Wano Country?

"Then, how to take it out?"

Yamato blinked, "Should we bring Barrett back?"

"It's simple,"

Ian said, "Yamato, freeze the sea below."

"Simple."

Without much hesitation, Yamato directly entered the beast-man state and pulled out the mace from behind.

The snow-white and crystal-clear mace was raised high, and the armed color and overlord color were poured into the iron rod at the same time.

The next moment, Yamato smashed the iron rod towards the ground below with all his strength.

"Ice Bagua!"

The ground below was instantly shattered, revealing a huge hole.

But before the seawater could rush in from the hole, it had already frozen into ice in an instant.

"Done!"

Yamato proudly wiped his nose, "From here to the bottom of the sea, all the seawater is frozen!"

Ian certainly had no doubts about this. Yamato's current strength was completely above Aokiji, and it was natural for him to be able to do such a thing.

"Then, follow me."

Ian casually pulled his shoulder.

Surtur, who had been lying on his shoulder and disguised as a doll, suddenly changed his form and turned into a huge scarlet giant.

Ian jumped lightly and landed on the shoulder of the flame giant, then Surtur stepped forward and stood on the ice under the hole.

Then, his body fell straight down.

The ice formed by the condensation of seawater could not stop him from falling down at all, and it was as if it was air that allowed him to pass through, leaving only a wide passage.

Not even a bit of water vapor was left, and everything was completely destroyed.

"What a terrible ability!"

The red-haired man sighed sincerely.

He still remembered the time when Ian and the golden lion had a decisive battle. At that time, Ian's red flames were already so strong that even the golden lion could not resist them.

"Wait for me! Ian!"

Yamato smiled and stepped forward, jumping directly into the huge passage opened by Ian.

The flame giant fell directly to the bottom of the sea below, and the seabed mud that had become soft under the years of seawater immersion also became hard in the high temperature brought by his fall.

But this hardness only lasted for a moment, and when Surtur's feet landed on the ground, the ground was instantly destroyed.

A passage was opened up again, and Ian followed Surtur and fell down again.

Down, down, and down continuously.

Ian's observation Haki had already penetrated the ground and went deeper underground.

He had sensed the huge space deep underground below.

The regular road leading there was certainly not here, but because it was too troublesome, Ian simply made his own way out.

After a while, the darkness in front of him disappeared, and Ian found that he had fallen into a huge space.

A dark red light came from below.

Surtur returned to the form of a golden giant and spread his hands.

"Ah!"

Yamato fell from above happily, landing directly on the giant's left hand, and bounced to Ian's side.

The girl hugged Ian's arm and looked down in surprise.

"Another sea."

There was a sea of ​​magma below.

The extremely hot breath rose up, as if to evaporate everything.

"It's so hot!"

When the red-haired man landed on the arm of the fire giant, he was sweating all over. "Shouldn't I come down?"

"Don't you want to see the legendary ancient weapon as soon as possible?"

Ian lowered his head, and his observation Haki had already helped him lock on to the huge monster buried under the magma.

"Is it true?"

The red-haired man sighed.

It really is Hades.

"Go, Surtur, go and fish that thing out."
