Violet Joins the Crew! Infiltrating the Deep Sea

Green Bit, on the coast.

Teacher Kai has returned to human form.

"Wow, it's huge! Bigger than Ianland!"

"Bigger than Maria Land!"

"Is it a human?"

Teacher Kai remained expressionless, even as a group of adorable little elves chattered incessantly around him.

Her facial expression management was remarkably effective.

"Is it them?"

He looked at Ian.

"Yes, she's very cute, isn't she, Teacher Kai?"

Leo stood on Ian's left shoulder, Princess Mansherry on his right shoulder, and he was holding an even younger child, Dontata, in his arms. Dontata was looking up at Teacher Kai with a curious expression, biting his fingers like a little squirrel.

"It reminds me of Yamato when he was a child."

When Yamato was two or three years old, he was an adorable little dumpling with a round, chubby face and plump little hands. He would always babble and call out to Ian, and we would hold his hands and not let go. He was incredibly cute.

"Cute?"

Teacher Kai gave a cold laugh.

I have no idea what he's laughing about.

Is it because he's unhappy about comparing his childhood self, Yamato, to the Tontatta Tribe?

"Furthermore, the Tontatta Tribe is extremely skilled at cultivating plants,"

Ian stated bluntly, "Once Judge's research on Artificial Devil Fruit is successful, they will be of great help."

"Furthermore, even disregarding Artificial Devil Fruit, they will greatly promote agricultural production in Wano Country."

Although Wano Country is currently engaged in large-scale mechanized agricultural production, it wouldn't be a bad thing to increase output further.

It's important to understand that in this world, food is sometimes a more sought-after form of hard currency than weapons. After all, you can live without weapons, but you absolutely cannot live without food.

There are indeed many people in this world who lack food.

Teacher Kai nodded slightly.

He didn't care at all about increasing grain production; it wasn't like he was starving.

However, he couldn't ignore the fact that it would help in the cultivation of Artificial Devil Fruit.

Artificial Devil Fruit were the thing he was most interested in and looking forward to during this period.

Although he had already agreed in his heart, Teacher Kai still had to give his usual cold snort, "You better not let me come all this way for nothing."

Of course not.

Ian was already used to Teacher Kai's occasional tsundere antics. He looked around at the Tontatta and asked, "Right?"

"Of course!"

Leo excitedly jumped onto Ian's head, "We will never let the Great Human Race down!"

Ian clapped his hands. "Alright, let's go back and pack our things now. We're about to leave."

"Yay!"

"Time to pack!"

Just like kindergarten children being let out of school, the Tontatta rushed into the forest, laughing and shouting.

"Teacher Kai,"

Only after the Tontatta ran into the forest did Ian give them a serious warning, "The Tontatta Tribe is very simple and innocent. I'm afraid they'll be hurt by the pirates in our territory. You know what our pirates look like."

Teacher Kai's eyebrows shot up, and he said in a gruff voice, "Anyone who dares to touch them, I'll kill them!"

Since it concerns Artificial Devil Fruit, he will not allow anyone to interfere.

"Then I'm relieved."

Ian breathed a sigh of relief.

Saying that he wanted to repay the Tontatta Tribe was no joke.

I already feel guilty enough about kidnapping these little elves; if they were to get hurt as well, it would be really hard to bear.

If they're going to Wano Country, shouldn't they at least be able to live a better life than they did in Green Bit?

Then, Ian looked at Law and asked, "Law, do you want to come back with me?"

The illness has been cured.

"No,"

But Luo shook his head, and said with some anticipation, "Next, we're going to Fish-Man Island, right?"

Who wouldn't want to go to Fish-Man Island?

Ian glanced at the kid.

You little rascal, you're so young and already dreaming about mermaids, huh?

If I have the chance, I'll take you to Water 7 to Kokoro.

However, since this kid wants to come along, it won't hurt to bring him along too.

Jinbe has already gone to sea with Fisher Tiger, so what danger could Fish-Man Island possibly pose now?

Soon, the Tontatta returned, bringing their families and carrying large and small bags; they gathered on the shore.

Then, Teacher Kai transformed back into a cyan dragon and soared into the sky, releasing purple flames that enveloped the area, forcefully breaking it off from Green Bit and carrying it into the sky.

Wow! That's amazing!

The little people have started to exclaim in surprise again.

Not to mention them, even Luo was dumbfounded.

"Kid, Yamato,"

Teacher Kai looked down at Ian, then at Yamato, "Come back soon."

So, Teacher Kai, an elderly man living alone, also feeling lonely?

Ian smiled. "Of course."

"Knew!"

Yamato's reply was full of energy, "Goodbye, Dad!"

Then, Teacher Kai turned around, dragging the fragments of the island, and headed back the way he came.

and.

"Goodbye, Ianland!"

On the fragment of the island shrouded in clouds, the Tontatta bid farewell to Ian.

Ian waved vigorously at them, "See you later!"

Soon, Teacher Kai disappeared on the horizon.

"Alright, it's time for us to leave now."

Ian said, "Let's set sail."

I've been staying here for several days now.

The Golden Flying Dragon has finally set sail once again.

However, they did not leave Dressrosa immediately.

Instead, they stopped again on the coast of this country.

"Brother Ian, is there anything else?"

Jack was puzzled.

Waiting for someone.

Ian chuckled softly.

"Waiting for someone?"

Luo was also puzzled, "Waiting for whom?"

"Haven't I said it yet?"

Ian waved towards the island, and from between the two huge rocks at the island's edge, a girl carrying a bundle emerged from a narrow path. "We have a new member on our ship."

"Ah?"

Luo looked blankly at the girl who was walking alone.

She's only two years older than me.

And she was sobbing softly.

It's obvious at a glance that they didn't join legitimately.

Yes, that's very Ian.

Later.

The Golden Flying Dragon finally set sail, heading towards the Red Line.

At the same time, in Dressrosa, at the King's Plateau, within the royal palace.

"Father, I want to join the Beasts Pirates and become a legendary pirate. Just pretend you never had me as your daughter!"

King Riku slowly read the words on the letter in his hand, word by word. Even though it was only a few sentences long, he broke down in tears after reading only half of it.

"Ian forced her to do it!"

Kyros looked full of regret. "I should have noticed it sooner! Scarlett said that Violet was distracted after returning yesterday; it must have been then!"

"No, Kyros, it's not your fault,"

King Riku covered his eyes, trying to hide his shameful state. "That child is just too kind. I can imagine Ian threatening her with what she cherishes."

"What should we do? Should we do nothing?"

Kyros, a man of steel, almost shed tears. "Violet has joined the Beasts Pirates, and who knows what kind of misfortune she will encounter? Your King Riku, can we request the Navy's help?"

"Navy?"

King Riku paused for a moment, then said dejectedly, "Putting aside whether the Navy will go to war with the Beasts Pirates for Violet's sake, wasn't Violet doing this voluntarily?"

Kyros speechless.

There's nothing more we can do.

The Golden Flying Dragon was gradually moving away from Dressrosa.

"I, I...I am Violet."

The little princess hunched her shoulders and lowered her head, fidgeting nervously with the hem of her dress, making very soft noises.

"Violet is the second princess of Dressrosa and Paramecia Devil Fruit User."

Ian then introduced it to her, saying, "This ability is quite interesting. It can read minds, see through things, turn tears into attacks, and even observe scenes a thousand kilometers away. It's a genuine Thousand Mile Eye."

After hearing this, Luo instantly understood why the little princess was here.

Even he was tempted by such a useful ability, let alone Ian, who seemed to have a collecting obsession.

Ian then had everyone on the ship introduce themselves, and that concluded the introductions.

Unfortunately, Violet clearly lacked adaptability and remained in a state of constant fear.

Therefore, Ian decisively sent Black Maria into battle.

Although Maria is only one year older Ian, she possesses amazing maternal instincts.

In other words, Maria is the woman who could be my Mama!

Yes, in the original work, she is indeed essentially Yamato's stepmother.

Fortunately, Yamato and severed her father-daughter relationship with the old man in time, thus avoiding having an extra stepmother who was only one year older than her.

Of course, Maria, who grew up with Ian, probably doesn't want to rely on an old man now.

"There's no need to be afraid, Violet,"

Maria whispered words of comfort to Violet, who was the same age as her but less than a quarter of her height. Her enormous hand gently stroked Violet's back; the size difference made it undeniable that Maria could break Violet's spine.

Of course, Black Maria did not do that.

She simply said gently, "Ian is actually a very easy person to get along with. You may not have realized it before, but now that you're one of our companions, you'll understand that no matter what danger we face, Ian will protect us."

The little princess did not respond.

It's indeed a bit difficult to convince her that Ian, the pirate who coerced her, is a good person with just a few words.

This task should be done by Naruto.

So Maria changed her perspective. She said softly, "Since there's no going back now, let's just learn to adapt and survive on this ship."

The little princess's eyes finally twitched slightly.

Black Maria breathed a sigh of relief.

It's finally done.

Meanwhile, Ian had already started fishing again.

"I don't believe a princess of a country would obediently become a pirate."

Luo stood beside him, leaning against the ship's railing, holding two dumbbells in one hand, and said.

"It doesn't matter,"

Ian said calmly, "Everything will be alright once Doflamingo begins to act."

Luo was stunned.

He immediately Satori going on.

Yes, no matter how unwilling this princess may be at this moment.

Once Doflamingo attacks Dressrosa, the only person she can turn to for help will be Ian!

Luo gasped in shock.

It has to be Ian.

Was this also included in your calculations?

Then, with a hint of anticipation, he asked, "Are we going straight to Fish-Man Island next?"

"No."

Ian said, "First, we need to find an island to coat the ship."

Fish-Man Island is located 10,000 meters below the seabed, and even a very powerful ship Golden Flying Dragon could not directly dive into the deep sea.

We need to apply a coating first.

Since coating is required, coating artisans are needed, and people engaged in this profession are not common at sea.

Fortunately, a pirate crew of the Beasts Pirates ' caliber naturally employs a group of coating craftsmen, and Ian's ship has several of them.

Next, all we need to do is find an island near Fish-Man Island and have the craftsmen coat the ship.

So, two weeks later, on a deserted island located at the mouth of the New World.

Ian stood on the shore, gazing silently into the distance.

The distant sea finally came to an end, and a towering red wall, reaching into the clouds, stretched out before us, seemingly an eternal wall of sighs that separated the human world from the underworld.

Red Line.

This is what people usually call this high wall.

This high wall marks the dividing line between the first and second halves of the Grand Line, and is the only and largest continent in the world.

What's up there?

Yamato stood beside him, gazing up at the part of the Red Line obscured by thick clouds.

Mary Geoise.

Ian said, "The central hub of the World Government, the gathering place of the Celestial Dragons, Mary Geoise."

He turned around. "Want to go take a look?"

"Um!"

The sea breeze ruffled Yamato's white hair at her temples. The girl smiled and said, "This seems quite interesting."

"Now is not the time."

Ian said, "Wait a little longer."

To find ultimate peace of mind in this world, one must go to Mary Geoise, and the Celestial Dragons must be eliminated.

Behind the two, Violet sat silently on a rock by the shore. She hadn't done anything outrageous since boarding the boat, but she had remained very somber.

At this moment, even if she was just going through the motions, it was hard not to be shaken by Ian's words.

That's a madman.

She thought.

They're actually plotting to attack Mary Geoise and the Celestial Dragons!

at this time.

"Lord Ian!"

Babanuki rushed over, "The final checks are complete! We can head to Fish-Man Island now!"

Ian turned around.

On the other side of the coast, the Golden Flying Dragon lay quietly moored.

The golden surface of the ship was now covered with a film that clung tightly to the hull, gleaming in the sunlight.

"Is it finally done?"

Ian's lips curled into a smile. "Then, let's set off."

"Oh!"

Cheers erupted.

Board the Golden Flying Dragon.

Yamato ran around happily on the deck.

Her feet made a squelching sound as they stepped on the membrane, which was bouncy and soft, like a QQ candy.

The Golden Flying Dragon set sail and traveled all the way to a place close to the Red Line.

Then.

"Lord Ian, we are about to release the membrane!"

The ship's crew began injecting air into the membrane.

The membrane that was originally attached tightly to the hull suddenly began to expand, completely engulfing everything on board.

Within minutes, a huge bubble enveloping the Golden Flying Dragon had taken shape.

"It's about to start sinking!"

"The bubbles will greatly reduce the buoyancy of the seawater!" Babanuki shouted.

"We're about to sink into the deep sea!"

As he said, the Golden Flying Dragon began to sink and was completely submerged in the sea within seconds.

Ian tilted his head back, the seawater above him.

This feeling is truly wonderful.

Then.

He looked down, into the dark, deep abyss below.

Next, our target Fish-Man Island.
