Fierce Beasts! Hancock Boards the Ship! The Brat Brigade! Homeward Bound
Ruskeina Island.
An uninhabited, deserted island located in the northwest of Amazon Lily.
Because it is located in Calm Belt, this place is actually more deserted than other uninhabited islands in the ocean, and in most cases, no one will land on this island for many years.
But now, the group has arrived on this island.
"Yoho!"
Yamato laughed joyfully as she rode on the back of a giant wolf that was three meters tall, speeding through the forest.
The huge wolf had a large bump on its forehead and was silently sobbing with teary eyes, not even daring to cry out loud.
However, Yamato 'Yamato pleasant drive lasted only a few seconds. A much larger rhinoceros charged out of the jungle, its huge and sharp horn piercing the giant wolf's belly, and blood splattered instantly.
"Ah! My Wolf!"
Yamato was thrown into the sky by the immense force, but his eyes looked down at the large wolf that had been strung together by rhinoceroses with heartache, and he said with great sorrow.
Have you chosen a name yet?
We just tamed this big wolf half a minute ago.
However, the naming skills remain as terrible as ever.
Ian stood on a large rock not far away, quietly watching as the enraged Yamato hurled a spiked club, smashing a hole in the giant rhinoceros's skull.
"It's really lively here."
Ian sighed.
"Roar!!"
A huge tiger leaped out of the jungle behind Ian, bringing with it a foul stench, and was about to devour Ian whole.
but.
"What do you think you're doing to Lord Ian, you damned cat?!"
Behind Ian, a tall figure sprang into the air, his long, powerful right leg swinging out – "Perfume Femur!"
Its long, slender right leg, like a steel whip, kicked the tiger's head, shattering it into a pile of rubble.
That's why I said it was very lively.
Almost every few minutes, they would be attacked by a wild beast.
Ian turned around, and the black-haired girl landed gracefully.
Then.
"Hmm! Lord Ian is looking at me!"
Hancock blushed instantly and ran far away, hiding behind a big tree and cautiously watching Ian.
Ian sighed; in this aspect, being love-struck is exactly the same as in the original work.
She has completely replaced Luffy's position in her heart as he was in the original work.
Honestly, being admired by the most beautiful woman in the world is certainly a great thing, but...
Ian watched as Yamato angrily swung his iron bar, relentlessly bombarding the rhinoceros until its head was smashed into Yamato of ice.
Having a straightforward, possessive childhood sweetheart makes all the difference.
"Roar!"
Another earth-shattering roar erupted.
The sheer sound of the roar was enough to make the trees in the forest tremble.
oh?
Ian turned his head instantly.
The truly formidable ones are here!
Masira!
A gigantic Masira, at least twenty meters tall, smashed through all the trees in its path and charged straight at Ian.
"Lord Ian!"
Hancock couldn't help but exclaim.
Ruskeina Island to many ferocious beasts.
But most of the power is just so-so.
Only a very few exceptional individuals possess astonishing strength, some of whom are even beyond the reach of the captains of the Kuja Pirates throughout history.
And this Masira is one of them.
Ian smiled slightly.
In the next instant, he leaped up like Inazuma, flicking his right foot.
"Lanjiao·Dance."
A barrage of azure slashes, like a violent storm, relentlessly bombarded the giant Masira.
The sharp slash tore through the beast's flesh in an instant.
However, it only tore its skin and flesh; there wasn't even much blood gushing out.
The giant Masira's enormous body possessed incredibly strong muscles, so even Ian's slash, capable of tearing through steel, couldn't completely rip its body apart.
The pain only fueled the beast's ferocious roar, and its massive fist came crashing down from the air.
Kneel down.
But at the same time, Ian had already leaped to a higher position and crashed down, his right leg, like a battle axe, slamming into the giant beast's head, forcing it to its knees. The ground was crushed by its knee, creating two huge craters.
Ian landed lightly on the giant beast's head.
However, even such a powerful blow could not break it.
The behemoth wanted to stand up again.
only.
"Quiet."
Ian's eyes darkened.
He wasn't particularly heavy; even though his body was covered in well-defined muscles, he probably weighed only a little over 200 pounds. But at this moment, the terrifying aura emanating from him pressed down on the giant beast like a mountain.
The Masira's pupils trembled instantly, and beads of sweat seeped from its forehead. Its body stiffened instantly, remaining motionless, just as Ian had said, kneeling on the spot, afraid to move.
Wild animals may not be as intelligent as humans, but their perception of danger is far superior.
It was aware that if it dared to resist again, it would be doomed.
He's quite honest.
Ian thought.
That's really impressive.
Even when he wasn't using his abilities, he couldn't inflict a fatal wound on him.
He has at least the strength of Vice Admiral or higher.
It's not surprising that someone with the skill level of Liu Zi (a character from Journey to the West) would be considered skilled.
Is this the kind of beast that even Luffy had to devise Gear Fourth to fight?
They are in no way inferior to the Bravens.
"That's really good."
Ian was full of admiration.
"Lord Ian!"
Behind her, Hancock gazed longingly at Ian was perched atop the giant beast's head.
A strong wind blew through the forest, making the boy's shoulder-length hair fly wildly in the wind, along with his unbuttoned black suit. His arrogant and domineering air made Hancock unable to take her eyes off him.
That's so cool!
She felt her cheeks burning. In her vision, Ian seemed to be surrounded by countless roses, making his entire appearance even more magnificent.
Ah! This feeling is love!
Previously, Shakky and Gloriosa had already given her some intensive tutoring.
Let her understand that her feelings for Lord Ian are what is called love.
Love is a storm!
My mother-in-law said, "If you're in love, then bravely pursue it!"
Otherwise, you will die.
This is the lovesickness of the Kuja.
but.
Hancock's face fell.
The wounds on my back had long since scabbed over, but now they felt like they were burning again.
If Lord Ian finds out...
The girl's lips trembled, and she looked as if she was about to cry.
"Ian!"
Yamato rushed excitedly toward Ian, "This island is so interesting! There are so many amazing people here! Should we stay and play for a bit?"
No, thank you.
Ian shook his head. "Rather, it's about time we went back."
Having confirmed the strength of the beasts on the island, there was no need to stay.
"Wow! So fast?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Jack and the others are still waiting for us on Fish-Man Island."
Thus, the three who landed on the island returned to the Kuja Pirates' large ship anchored on the shore.
Ian said goodbye.
"So fast, Lord Ian!"
Rose was shocked. "Shouldn't we at least spend a few more days on Amazon Lily?"
"Need not,"
Ian shook his head. "We still need to meet up with our friends, so let's not waste any more time."
Besides, I always felt it was dangerous to stay on Amazon Lily.
Who knows what those crazy Kuja girls might do next?
If you like something, go for it; that's part of the Kuja ' national culture.
To be honest, Ian feels a little scary.
After all, being admired by one girl isn't a bad thing, being admired by several girls is even better, and being admired by a dozen or more girls is even more charming.
However, being adored by tens of thousands of girls is truly a bit frightening.
"I see."
Rose sighed regretfully.
She muttered, "I was saying it would be good if we could leave some excellent offspring for Kuja."
Ian's eye twitched.
Explain to me properly what a seed is.
"Your Majesty Rose,"
Ian pretended not to hear and got down to business, "Our Beasts Pirates need a lot of the ferocious beasts from these islands, so we need your help."
Ruskeina Island is too far from Wano Country and too large, so Teacher Kai can't just come and move the island back.
Therefore, in order to obtain the wild beasts on the island, they needed to rely on primitive and slow shipping.
"I know."
When it came to serious matters, Rose became earnest, "But Lord Ian, transporting these beasts won't be easy. The distance is too far, and we're separated from the New World by the Red Line."
"You just need to capture it; leave the transportation to my friends."
Ian said that Umit would definitely be willing to help. "As for the Red Line, Fish-Man Island should be able to send Fish-Man Unit to help with the transport, ensuring that the sea transport will not have any problems."
"Fish-Man Island?"
Rose was surprised.
As expected of Lord Ian!
Do they even have access to Fish-Man Island, the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates?
"Then leave it to us."
Rose nodded. "If it's just about capturing wild beasts, then of course there's no problem!"
Ian said, "But remember, don't overhunt. Focus on predators that have reached maturity."
Draining the pond to catch all the fish is not a good idea.
"Clear."
Rose nodded again, then turned to look at a girl behind her, "Lord Ian..."
Ian also looked at the girl whose face was full of expectation.
I couldn't help but scratch my head.
This is really a headache.
"Let Hancock come with us."
Ian said, "She has great potential and is qualified to become a member of the Beasts Pirates."
Previously, Rose had taken the time to solemnly tell him about the lovesickness on Amazon Lily, and then told him that Hancock was now suffering from the same illness.
If he leaves like this, Hancock will die.
"Very good!"
Rose cheered, turning to look at the girl. "Hancock! Did you hear that?"
"This... this...--"
The girl clutched her chest, staggering backward as if she'd been shot in the chest, her eyes practically shooting out hearts. "This is... a proposal!"
Ian's lips twitched slightly.
"Ah?"
At the same time, Yamato and tugged at Ian's sleeve, "Is this woman coming back with us too?"
"Um,"
Ian thought for a moment, then said, "Hancock has some kind of illness; she'll die if she doesn't leave with us."
I feel like I'm the same scumbag male protagonist in a female-oriented angst novel, torturing my adorable childhood sweetheart for the sake of my white moonlight.
"Hey!"
However, although Yamato and silly, she is by no means an easy girl to bully. The white-haired girl looked Hancock up and down, then pouted, "But this girl seems really annoying."
Hancock's smile gradually faded as she reveled in the joy of leaving with Ian soon.
She stared intently at Yamato.
That white fur is such an eyesore!
Ian sighed.
As you can foresee, a chaotic and disorderly life is about to begin.
Soon, Ian transformed into a giant Golden Flying Dragon and took flight, heading back towards Fish-Man Island. Because of the Eternal Pose on Fish-Man Island, there was no need to worry about getting lost.
Besides Hancock, her two younger sisters were also with Ian, staying behind him on their way back.
The three sisters grew up together, and now that the older sister Hancock is joining the Beasts Pirates, the two younger sisters naturally have to follow suit.
Ian didn't care. Of course, Hancock's two sisters were much weaker in talent than Hancock, but it didn't matter to the Beasts Pirates having two lazybones.
Ian suddenly remembered.
Are there already too many young people around him?
Moreover, they all seem to be exceptionally talented?
He was certain that he could reach the level of the Four Emperors or even surpass them.
The loan is enough to reach the level of the Four Emperors, Yamato.
The loan is enough to reach the top All-Stars level: Hancock, Law, Sanji.
Jack is a solid contender for the level of the All-Stars.
Drake, Ulti, and Page One are at least at the level of six.
Ian clicked his tongue. In another ten years, he could really start a new Beasts Pirates.
At that time, one could say, "A true man is born between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for long?"
Old Deng, it's time to cash in!
I'm getting a little excited just thinking about it.
On his back.
"Am I on Lord Ian's back right now? Lord Ian's back is so big and warm."
Hancock was moved to tears, gently leaning against Ian's back, her face filled with emotion. "This is... a meeting of minds?"
Ian's lips twitched again; he seemed quite cultured.
However, given the thickness of your chest and the size of my body at this moment, our hearts are still somewhat distant.
The two younger sisters hesitated, wondering what had happened to their usually aloof and indifferent older sister.
Yamato, however, felt something was off inside, and a slight urge to hit someone.
What is this strange woman up to?
Ian was really afraid of a fight breaking out from behind, but thankfully, his flying speed wasn't slow, and he soon arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago.
Neptune's men were already waiting here. Ian and the others coated themselves with a waterproof membrane and then followed the Fish-Man Unit Neptune had sent to pick them up into the deep sea.
Upon entering the deep sea for the first time, the three Hancock sisters did not react much better than Yamato and Masaru before.
It was all full of surprise and admiration.
When the giant sea monster occasionally lurks by, Hancock's two sisters scream in terror.
Hancock, on the other hand, didn't care. She knew that no matter what happened, Lord Ian would protect them.
The girl would always steal glances at Ian, her eyes filled with tenderness, adoration, and love.
Ian pretended not to see it.
Yamato, on the other hand, would suddenly turn to look at Hancock whenever Hancock peeked at Ian, only to see Hancock gazing at the surrounding deep sea.
Yamato became even more suspicious.
However, this suspicion didn't last long. The dark deep sea was too boring. Yamato had already yawned twice Yamato fallen asleep on Ian's shoulder, his sleeping posture quite messy as he wrapped his arms around Ian's neck.
Hancock clenched her fists, her face turning pale.
Ian sighed silently.
Headache.
Fortunately, the Fish-Man Unit sent by Neptune were very fast, and they arrived at Fish-Man Island in no time.
This time, there's no need to just barge in. Rather, the troops guarding the gates of Fish-Man Island are very respectful in welcoming Ian's return.
Upon entering Fish-Man Island, head straight for the Ryugu Palace.
The other kids immediately came to greet them.
"Brother Ian! What exactly is going on with Kuja?"
Jack immediately asked, "The newspapers say the Kuja Pirates were wiped out? And they didn't mention you at all."
"That was an exchange,"
Ian said, "I'll give the government face; the Navy will abandon its plans for Amazon Lily."
Jack let out a long sigh of relief. "I knew it! How could Brother Ian possibly fail!"
Behind Ian, Hancock's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing Jack's words.
This guy seems like a nice person.
at the same time.
"Ian,"
Black Maria also noticed the three sisters following behind Ian, especially Hancock.
It's so beautiful!
Even Black Maria felt ashamed in front of this girl. "Who are they?"
Ian then turned around and introduced them, "Hancock, Sondra, and Marigold, the three sisters from Kuja. Hancock is an extraordinary genius, so I'm inviting her to join the Beasts Pirates."
"Lord Ian praised me as a genius--"
Hancock was hit by an arrow again, clutching her chest and leaning against her sister, her expression a mixture of ecstasy and pain, a far cry from the pale face she had shown in the deep sea.
"So happy!"
Huh? Is something really interesting about to happen?
Luo's lips curled into a smile.
Even Violet stared intently at him, wishing she could immediately use her abilities to read Ian's mind.
"Ian?"
Black Maria looked at Ian.
Ian said seriously, "All objectives have been achieved. It's time to go back. I'm going to say goodbye to Neptune now."
The Neptune reacted much like Rose, trying to persuade Ian to stay when he said goodbye.
Otohime said, "Ian, let's stay a few more days. Thanks to my efforts these past two days, the number of people willing to move to Wano Country has increased to over four thousand! And there will be even more in the future!"
"No need, Queen Otohime."
Ian shook his head. "Given the current situation, no matter how hard you try, it won't make a difference. We need to make the people of Fish-Man Island realize that life in Wano Country is somewhat different from what they imagined."
But what should we do?
Otohime seemed a little anxious. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "How about I go with you to Wano Country?"
Although she was physically weak, she was mentally strong, and in the original work, she dared to run to Mary Geoise with the Celestial Dragons.
"You are not suitable, Queen Otohime. Even if you agree, the people of Fish-Man Island may not believe it."
Ian smiled. "Perhaps you could have Fisher Tiger come over."
After wreaking havoc in Mary Geoise, Fisher Tiger had become a great hero of Fish-Man Island.
Her reputation was even higher than that of Queen Otohime at that time.
If he can agree with the immigration plan, then the subsequent progress should be much easier.
"Fisher Tiger?"
The couple exchanged a glance.
In any case, Ian and his group returned to their homeland.
The coating on the Golden Flying Dragon has been completed, and now is the time for its return voyage.
Unlike when they came, this time when they returned, there were more than a thousand Fish-Man pirates and more than four thousand Fish-Man Island residents on board.
Fortunately, the Golden Flying Dragon was big enough, otherwise it really wouldn't have been able to fit so many people.
