The Golden Flying Dragon continued to plunge into the deep sea.

The expanding bubbles irrationally negated a significant portion of the buoyancy, causing the large ship to be unable to resist the pull of gravity and plummet straight down.

As the descent depth gradually increased, the surrounding light rapidly dimmed until, eventually, it was pitch black, so dark that one could not see their own hand in front of their face.

"Hmm!"

Violet instinctively hugged her arms tighter.

The surface of the Golden Flying Dragon was lit up so that the people on board could see properly.

But outside this large ship, it was pitch black and nothing could be seen.

An indescribable sense of dread welled up from the depths of the girl's heart.

Fear stems from the unknown.

Violet couldn't help but wonder if, in this darkness, a gigantic monster might suddenly leap out, its mouth agape, ready to pounce—

"Roar!"

In the darkness, a colossal object suddenly emerged from the left side of the ship, stirring up the currents and causing the entire Golden Flying Dragon to tremble.

It was a huge, monstrous fish with a lion-like head, its mouth wide open, revealing a mouthful of ferocious, sharp teeth, as it lunged to tear at the side of the large ship.

"Aaaaaaah!!"

Violet could no longer bear it and collapsed to the ground, screaming.

It's here! A monster from the deep sea!

Even Luo was taken aback.

Sea Beast?

but.

He suddenly turned his head and looked at the guy who was leaning against the ship's railing chatting with Yamato.

Ian looked up at the charging beast, his eyes flashing with dark Inazuma. "Get lost."

The sea lion, which is over fifty meters long, froze instantly.

Then, visibly, the guy's ferocious expression twisted, and his fear was clearly visible.

Without hesitation, the enormous deep-sea monster turned and fled in a flash.

While these Sea Beast may not be as intelligent as Sea King, they are not actually less so. With the right methods, it is possible to communicate with them.

The method of communication is in the hands of Fish-Man and mermaids.

The Fish-Man Race can tame Sea Beast.

Since we're going to form Fish-Man Unit anyway, how about creating a Fish-Man Sea Beast cavalry regiment? What do you think?

While Ian was pondering...

Behind them, Violet was still trembling with a pale face. It wasn't until several seconds later that she realized the monster had been driven away by Ian.

She is safe now.

but.

"Wow!"

The girl suddenly burst into tears.

I've had enough!

Why am I here?! Why do I have to go through this?!

The fourteen-year-old girl finally broke down after experiencing this life-or-death crisis.

Thankfully, Black Maria is there.

The maternal girl, seeing Violet break down in tears, felt a pang of sympathy and walked over to her, quickly pulling her into her arms and gently patting her back to comfort her. "It's alright, Violet. Ian has driven the monster away, we're safe now."

"Waaaaah!"

Violet cried even louder.

However, he did not reject Maria's embrace.

Ian didn't turn around, but calmly said, listening to the wailing from behind, "Maria, I think Violet might need you to change her dress more than comfort her."

Black Maria was taken aback.

Violet, who was wailing loudly, froze completely, forgetting even how to cry.

She then noticed that the dress seemed to be clinging tightly to her body and was somewhat warm.

"Ah!!!"

They were so ashamed that they forgot all about fear.

Social death is definitely more painful than physical death.

Luo almost burst out laughing.

Ian is so good at comforting people; he stopped crying immediately, didn't he?

Violet hurriedly followed Black Maria into the cabin. Before going in, the girl couldn't help but glare fiercely at Ian's retreating figure.

That bastard is absolutely despicable!

But then she remembered that Ian's angry shout had scared the monster away.

Just as Maria said, this guy is indeed quite reassuring.

Ian had no idea that the little princess was gradually developing symptoms of Stockholm syndrome, and he didn't have time to think about it.

Since entering the deep sea, Ian has maintained his Observation Haki at all times and remained vigilant, which is why he was able to discover Violet's little secret.

The Sea Beast we just saw are nothing compared to the true rulers of the deep sea –the Sea King.

Although the Golden Flying Dragon's hull was inlaid with Seastone, as the saying goes, Sea King are highly intelligent, and it's not so easy to fool them.

If you really run into Sea King, then you'll have to take matters into your own hands.

Of course, it doesn't really matter, since Ian is completely unaffected by seawater after using his ability.

Without the advantage of terrain, even those Sea King at the 5,000-meter level are nothing.

However, the Sea King did not appear even after they had entered the huge void beneath the Red Line.

Soon, light suddenly appeared on the dark seabed ahead. As they got closer, the light became more and more obvious, until finally, an island bathed in the light descending from above appeared before Ian and the others.

Fish-Man Island, we've arrived.

In any case, Ian breathed a slight sigh of relief.

However, Ian, who does not know how to Voice of All Things, cannot hear the wondrous sounds echoing in the sea from all directions.

"Who is he? He possesses incredible power."

Is he the new king?

"He's going to find our king. Will the king be in danger?"

"He is a pirate, the successor of Joy Boy."

"With his help, then it won't be long."

It was incredibly strange; the sound was exceptionally loud, yet no one in the entire deep sea could hear it.

Only inside Fish-Man Island, within the Ryugu Palace, did the enormous baby suddenly begin to giggle, even though no one was teasing her.

at the same time.

The Golden Flying Dragon has arrived in front of Fish-Man Island.

"Wow, what huge bubbles!"

Yamato was amazed.

Fish-Man Island is enclosed in a giant bubble, and above that bubble is an even smaller one, which contains the Ryugu Palace.

Although Fish-Man Island is the home of Fish-Man and mermaids, they don't want to stay in the water all the time.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that Fish-Man and mermaids, who live in the deep sea, crave sunlight and air even more than humans.

The sunlight is brought by the Sun Tree Eve, and the air depends on these two giant bubbles.

They isolated the island from the seawater, allowing the interior of Fish-Man Island to be filled with air as well.

"How are you, Jack?"

Ian smiled and said, "Fish-Man Island."

"It looks very good."

Jack nodded slightly.

As a Fish-Man, he had never been to Fish-Man Island.

He was born overseas and then grew up in the Beasts Pirates.

"Let's go then, we've logged in."

Ian said, "Let's go see if it's nice inside."

To land on Fish-Man Island, one cannot simply rush into the giant bubble like the Straw Hat Crew did. To prevent human invasion, the giant bubble surrounding Fish-Man Island is divided into several layers.

The moment it crashes through the bubble, the protective membrane on the ship detaches, causing the large ship to plummet and shatter into pieces.

Even if they didn't die from the fall, they would then have to face a thick layer of seawater, and a layer of seawater filled with powerful currents was obviously not easy to break through.

So, let's go through the main entrance.

The Golden Flying Dragon slowly arrived in front of the massive gate facing Fish-Man Island.

Despite being described as a huge door, it's actually just a membrane that isolates it from the outside seawater.

A group of Fish-Man dressed as soldiers guarded the gate.

"Sail the boat in!"

Ian gave orders loudly.

So the large ship, without stopping, rammed directly into that enormous doorway.

Upon seeing this, the Fish-Man guards quickly came forward; their duty was to inspect ships attempting to enter Fish-Man Island.

Even pirates have to go through this process to land.

Now, this ship actually wants to force its way in, which means it's at a point where it can directly contact the King's army.

but.

When they saw the design painted on the sails, the soldiers of Fish-Man Island were completely dumbfounded.

They didn't dare utter a single word, let alone try to stop it; they could only watch helplessly as the ship stormed into Fish-Man Island.

That pattern!

No way!

Boom!

The enormous Golden Flying Dragon crashed headfirst into the massive doorway.

The moment it passed through that membrane, the coating covering the Golden Flying Dragon shattered, and the ship leaped into the interior of Fish-Man Island, landing in a rushing river and surging forward.

After passing through a long passage, the interior of Fish-Man Island finally came into view.

"Oh!"

Yamato looked up at the sky in surprise, "There are blue skies and white clouds underwater!"

Fish-Man Island not only has air inside, but sunlight also shines down from the sky, and there are even floating clouds in the sky.

I don't really understand the principles behind it; as long as it looks nice, that's all that matters.

The buildings of Fish-Man Island are also clearly visible on both sides of this river.

These buildings are very much in the style of Fish-Man Island, often decorated with seashells or corals, and many of them are structures where the upper part is in the air and the lower part is submerged in water, since Fish-Man and mermaids are amphibious.

Looking further ahead along the river, there is a wide bay where many ships are moored.

I guess this should be considered the port of Fish-Man Island?

So.

Ian tilted his head back.

The Ryugu Palace was clearly visible in the sky.

The distance isn't too far; I shouldn't have to wait too long, right?

The main entrance to Fish-Man Island.

"It's the Beasts Pirates!!"

The soldiers guarding the gate were already screaming.

"The Beasts Pirates are here! Inform King Neptune immediately!!"

If we're not careful, this could be a disaster!

And so, above Fish-Man Island, within the Ryugu Palace.

King Neptune of the Ryugu Kingdom, whose body was enormous, received a message from his guards.

"You mean the Beasts Pirates?"

Screams echoed throughout the entire Ryugu Palace.

Below, the harbor bay of Fish-Man Island.

The place was now in complete chaos.

The arrival of the Golden Flying Dragon was like a bomb, causing an uproar throughout the entire bay.

"It's the Beasts Pirates!"

Such shouts instantly swept across the entire port.

Whether human or Fish-Man- man, mermaid or merchant or pirate or local resident, everyone in this port was a slave to fear, only able to run away crying for their parents.

That's the Beasts Pirates! One of the World's Strongest!

What does "card face" mean?

Ian almost laughed as he watched the frantically fleeing crowd.

Sometimes being too famous isn't a good thing.

Sometimes I want to interact with people as an ordinary person, but I find that a sadly thick barrier has already separated us.

However, not everyone chose to run away.

There are at least three types of people who did not choose to flee after confirming the origins of the Golden Flying Dragon.

"Kid! You're Ian of the Scorched Sky, right?!"

An excited voice came from the side.

Ian turned his head and saw a pirate ship rapidly approaching, blocking the way of the Golden Flying Dragon.

On the ship, a burly man with a full beard, carrying a large axe, looked at him excitedly, "Hehehe, your head is mine! As long as I kill you, I'll be famous all over the world!"

This is the first type; these clueless guys are never absent.

Ian wasn't interested in it at all.

Fortunately, someone is willing to take the lead.

"You think you can hurt Ian?"

Yamato leaped into the air like a cannonball, then crashed onto the deck of the ship with a thud.

Then.

Click!

Visible ice spread across the pirate ship's deck, and in just a few breaths, the entire upper half of the ship was frozen into an ice sculpture.

But Ian had already turned his attention to the second type of person.

Still a pirate.

"Lord Ian!"

A ship was moored alongside the Golden Flying Dragon, and a man dressed as a pirate exclaimed excitedly, "Please let us join the Beasts Pirates!!"

They're guys trying to curry favor with powerful figures.

Feeling that they could not reach the summit on their own, they wanted to join the ranks of the strong to witness the splendor of the top.

The assessment is that it's not even as good as the peak team-up.

Ian's gaze didn't linger on them, but instead turned to the third type of people.

The third type of people are the residents of Fish-Man Island, a group of mermaids.

They remained in the water, watching in astonishment as Ian and his men caused the chaos.

One of the bolder mermaids even shouted towards the ship, "I heard you're some pretty formidable pirates?"

Oh, wow.

Even Ian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly at this moment.

The women in Dressrosa are already quite beautiful on average.

But compared to the group of mermaid girls they saw, they were nothing. Moreover, the mermaids here often had much bolder costumes; a few seashells were their entire outfits—who could resist that?

Even the cool and collected Jack was somewhat lost in thought at this moment, not to mention Law, whose blushing face and hesitant expression resembled that of a teenage boy.

Not to mention them, even Violet, who had been hiding in the cabin feeling ashamed, couldn't help but climb onto the deck and cast a look of amazement at the mermaid ladies.

So this is Fish-Man Island?

I actually made it here!

Violet was also pleasantly surprised.

Ian didn't answer the mermaid ladies, he just smiled.

"Oh!"

Even so, the mermaids gasped in surprise.

"Don't you think he's handsome? He looks gentle and delicate, just my type."

"He's still a child, but he's even cuter trying so hard to look serious."

"Little handsome boy! Do you want to come down and play with us sisters? We can play adult Yugi with you!"

How enthusiastic!

When a group of beautifully dressed women in tattered clothes wave at you, it's safe to say that few people can resist.

Fish-Man Island truly lives up to its reputation as the paradise of countless men's dreams.

Even Luo couldn't help but cast a jealous glance at Ian.

So what if this guy is a little better looking, a little stronger, a little more powerful, and a little richer? What's so special about that?

but.

"Hey, what do you guys want Ian to do?"

The angry voice came from the deck of the completely frozen pirate ship. Yamato, Yamato standing with one foot on the gunwale, glared menacingly at the mermaid ladies, his anger flaring up. "You annoying guys, stay away from Ian!"

The girl had unconsciously unleashed her Conqueror's Haki's Haki, causing the sea to tremble slightly.

The Fish-Man didn't even have time to feel fear. Their eyes rolled back, and their faces contorted like dead fish as they floated on the surface of the sea, each one resembling a vengeful spirit who died with unresolved grievances.

"Forehead--"

Both Jack and Law's lips twitched instantly.

The beautiful scene instantly turned into a horror movie.

It directly became the "Stargazing Pie" dish, which is a dish with the English name.

Maria, however, was silently cheering for Yamato.

That's it, no, that's exactly how it should be, Yamato!

Ian couldn't help but recall what had happened in Dressrosa.

I have a bad feeling about the future.

Looking up with a slightly melancholy expression, he saw the flag erected in the harbor.

That's the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Fish-Man Island is Whitebeard's territory, and King Neptune is Whitebeard's good brother.

If we cause trouble here, then a second battle with the Whitebeard Pirates will undoubtedly begin.

Therefore, we need to have a proper discussion.

Don't make things difficult for me.

Ian looked up; in the sky, a group of dark figures were rapidly approaching.

At the very front is a large whale.

The whale has a bubble wrapped around its body, and it is this bubble that gives it the ability to fly in the sky.

At this moment, the enormous whale, its face visibly terrified, was desperately flying downwards.

On the back of this whale rode a man.

It was an unusually large creature with a thick brown beard and mustache, wearing a crown, carrying a trident, and having a long fish tail as its lower body.

Behind him followed a group of other fish, with armed soldiers riding on their backs.

They arrived quite quickly.

Ian's lips curled into a smile.

"Ian of the Scorched Sky! What do you want to do?!"

The newcomer, King Neptune of the Ryugu Kingdom, approached while shouting, "Fish-Man Island is under the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates! Do you wish to wage war against the Whitebeard Pirates?"

He paused for a moment, then said, "So please calm down! Whatever your demands, we can talk!"

He uttered the most cowardly words in the most resolute tone.

Ian laughed and said loudly, "Neptune, I'm here to talk business."

"Business?"

Neptune was taken aback.

"So, won't you invite me to visit the Ryugu Palace?"

Ian said.

This is quite important; let's find a more formal place.

Immediately, Ian and the others boarded Neptune's Flying Fish Unit and headed straight for Fish-Man Island in the sky.

Neptune had his men unload the fish, leaving a few for Ian and his men to ride on.

On the way, Neptune asked in a low voice, puzzled, "But Ian, I don't see what business our Fish-Man Island has to do with your Beasts Pirates?"

"Of course,"

Ian said, "For example, immigration programs."

Neptune's eyes widened instantly.

Immigration plan?
