After hearing the name Ice Dragon Ian, Festa's eyes flashed and he began to think about various things:
'If it's Ice Dragon Ian, with his reputation and strength, maybe...'
The reason why Festa came here was naturally because he planned to join forces with Umit, one of the kings of Underworld, to do something together.
He wants to host Pirate Expo again!
Ever since Golden Lion was arrested, this kind of pirate celebration has not been held again for many years.
The last World Expo was jointly planned by him and Golden Lion, and it has been many years.
Pirate Expo, is the biggest celebration for pirates!
Weapons, intelligence, drugs, food, slaves, and even the precious Devil Fruit, as long as you can think of it, whether it is white or black, almost everything can be found on Pirate Expo!
To carry out this kind of celebration, a big pirate with enough reputation and strength is needed to intimidate Xiao Xiao, and he also needs to be attractive enough to attract all the unruly pirates.
Therefore, money and Beli are indispensable!
Festa came here because he wanted to cooperate with Umit, first occupy Gild Tesoro's territory, and grab enough money to support the organization of Pirate Expo this time!
After the fall of Gild Tesoro, the sunken Gulan·Tesoro was completely frozen in the sea area of Ait Vol. Countless people wanted to break open the ice, dig out Ark Maxim Gulan·Tesoro, and obtain the countless wealth inside.
However, the forces that went there were unable to shake the frozen ice no matter what methods they used.
That frozen sea area is stronger than the ice continent that has been frozen for countless years, and countless people have returned home defeated...
However, in addition to Gulan Tesoro, Gild Tesoro also has territory in other places, which are coveted by countless people.
Just like the downfall of Donquixote Doflamingo, for the king Underworld, it is a huge cake, waiting for others to divide it!
No Underworld king is unmoved by this, and because of this, Festa came to the King of Shipping and wanted to reach some kind of cooperation with him and even other Underworld kings!
After that, he wanted to find a big pirate with enough strength and fame to cooperate with him in organizing Pirate Expo, but now hearing the news about Ice Dragon Ian here also made his heart active...
Compared with the big One Piece, Five Emperors Ice Dragon Ian, which is currently in the limelight, is more suitable!
Cooperating with Ice Dragon Ian may allow him to fulfill his biggest dream, surpass Pirate King Roger, and end the Great Pirate Era started by Roger...
'If you want to cooperate with Ice Dragon Ian, you need something to attract him. Maybe... he is also interested in Roger's One Piece...' Biting the cigar to the other side, Festa showed a weird smile...
"Damn it, why did Ice Dragon Ian come to me..." After hanging up the phone, sweat dripped from Umit's forehead. Facing the sudden arrival of Ice Dragon Ian, he couldn't panic.
Now, among the entire New World, who is not panicking after hearing the name Ice Dragon Ian?
Taking a deep puff of the cigar, Festa grinned and said to Umit, "Let's go meet him together, King of Shipping. I'm also a little curious about Ice Dragon Ian..."
"Nonsense, I can't afford to offend Ice Dragon Ian. Before I know what the purpose of his coming to me is, I don't dare to feel at ease..." Umit gritted his teeth.
It is impossible not to meet, and the attitude needs to be respectful.
If he offends the other party, he, the Underworld king, will come to an end...
The two got up and walked directly outside, and soon found the location of Ian.
After seeing Ian, Umit wiped his sweat and came to Ian. He said respectfully and cautiously, "Sir Ian, I didn't expect you to come to my place. I apologize for the poor hospitality..."
Ian glanced at him and just nodded. "Don't worry, I just came to the island to hang out. You look like a big and rough guy, but I didn't expect that the territory is managed well."
"Sir Ian, as long as you like it." After listening to Ian's words, Umit also breathed a sigh of relief and was not angry. He was afraid that one of his subordinates might offend Ice Dragon Ian, and then he would be the one to suffer.
He said respectfully, "Master Ian, I have prepared a sumptuous lunch. If you don't mind it, please let me do my duty as a landlord."
Ian waved his hand. "No need, I'm just here for a stroll, don't pay attention to me."
Umit twitched the corner of his mouth, how dare I not care about you on the island? What if you are in a bad mood and kill me?
But naturally he didn't dare to say this...
Ian looked at Umit, smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm in a good mood today, just take care of your men..."
When others are a little relaxed, his Observation Haki can capture some of the other person's thoughts.
Regarding Umit's complaints, Ian didn't take it seriously. After all, he didn't scold him. If he did, he would be embarrassed...
'Observation Haki who probes people's hearts?' Hearing this, Umit's face changed and his heart became frightened. He quickly restrained himself and did not dare to be careless.
In this sea, there are many strong Observation Haki who are special. Some can Future Sight, some can detect people's hearts, some can communicate with animals, and some have a very wide range...
Observation Haki, who probes people's hearts, as far as Umit knows, "Red Count" Redfield, who once single-handedly fought against the three generations of legendary pirates, is Observation Haki who can probe people's hearts!
And the Ice Dragon Ian in front of us can actually do it?
"Yes, sir, I won't let my men disturb you." Umit bowed quickly and his tone became more respectful.
"Oh, so be it..." Ian glanced at the other party, just smiled, and was about to leave.
But at this time, Festa suddenly smiled at Ian and said, "Five Emperors Ice Dragon Ian, can you lend me a loan for a while? I have something to discuss with you..."
Ian looked at the other party. "Who are you?"
"My name is Buena Festa. Mr. Ian may not recognize me." Festa did not dare to make a mistake in front of Ian, and his tone was quite respectful. He introduced himself, "I am a celebration organizer, and I would like to invite Mr. Ian to co-host a Pirate Expo..."
"Buena·Festa...Pirate Expo..." Ian muttered to himself, and then remembered the identity of the other party. Is he the person who teamed up with "Demon Heir" Bullet to hold Pirate Expo in the original movie version?
Festa bowed slightly and said with a smile, "Yes, Pirate Expo, if Lord Ian agrees, I am willing to contribute an intelligence, a priceless intelligence, concerning Pirate King Roger One Piece..."
Ian looked at Festa and suddenly smiled, "Oh? One Piece of Roger? Do you have Eternal Pose of Laugh Tale on your hand?"
"Uh..." Hearing this, Festa froze, with a look of horror on his face. How did the other party know?
Almost the next moment, he wanted to escape from here.
This is his biggest secret. If others find out now, he will be in trouble. Countless people will hunt him to death...
'Ba, Conqueror's Haki? This level? How is it possible?' But before he could take a step forward, a powerful Conqueror's Haki pressed down on his head, like a huge mountain pressing on him, pressing him to the ground, and the ground beneath him cracked.
At this time, Festa was extremely frightened.
After all, he can be regarded as a person of Roger's era. Although his strength is not very strong, his will is strong enough that ordinary Conqueror's Haki cannot affect him at all.
But now, in front of this Conqueror's Haki, he can't move?
What level of Conqueror's Haki is this...
"Don't leave in a hurry, I'm a little interested in what you're talking about Pirate Expo..." Ian pulled a smile from the corner of his mouth, because just when Festa said Pirate Wanbohui, a 'ding' sound suddenly rang in his mind...
