One Piece: Winged Dragon of the Beasts Pirates

Yes, the strongest.

He already possesses such terrifying power at such a young age. When he grows up, won't it be natural for him to take the strongest position from his teacher or Whitebeard?

That's how people in the world feel.

Therefore, the moment he recognized Ian, the Fallen Marine, Dias Barreus, was filled with despair. He trembled with fear, his teeth chattering, and he couldn't utter a single word.

What can you do when you encounter the Beasts Pirates or monsters like Ian the Burning Sky? What can you do besides offer your neck for slaughter?

Drake was also stunned.

Pirates, not Marines?

Moreover, it's the Beasts Pirates?

How could this be?

Ian, however, found it quite interesting.

Is this destiny?

Drake, one of the Flying Six, actually ran into him here.

In the original work, this guy was an undercover agent sent by the Navy to infiltrate the Beasts Pirates, but at this moment, he has not been rescued by the Navy yet, and his only connection with the Navy is that his father used to be a Navyman.

Come to think of it, this guy should be a few years older than me, so why does he look younger than me? He was quite imposing in the original work.

Another Koby, huh? He's starting to develop abnormally in a short period of time.

"Yamato, what do you think?"

Ian smiled with interest and said, "About this guy's request."

"Huh? This guy?"

Yamato looked Drake up and down carefully, then said without hesitation with disdain, "He's so weak."

"That seems to be true."

Ian did not deny Yamato's statement.

In fact, Yamato is absolutely right.

Drake was extremely thin. Compared to other pirates his age, or even to eleven or twelve-year-old children who exercise regularly, his aura was quite ordinary.

but.

This guy definitely has potential.

He is one of the few young men in the Navy who are still worth watching, given the generational gap in the original work.

As one of the future Flying Six, he does possess some talent.

"But they've already made the request."

Ian laughed and said, "It would be a bit impolite not to agree."

"Eh?"

Yamato was shocked. "Is that so?"

Barreus, who had been waiting for death with his eyes closed, suddenly widened his eyes.

He stared in disbelief at his stupid son.

No way!

Drake! What incredible luck you've had!

"Great! Drake!"

Barrerus screamed, his voice like a eunuch's shriek, "Lord Ian being favored by you is the greatest blessing you've ever had! Hurry up and thank him properly!"

He knelt on the ground like a dog, crawling forward with difficulty, raising his head with utmost obsequiousness, looking up at Ian as if he were a god, "Lord Ian! Thank you so much for your grace! I thank you on behalf of my foolish son!"

"..."

Drake's pupils dilated as he looked at the man kneeling beside him.

humiliation.

Once again, Drake felt deeply humiliated for being the son of the man before him.

Where did that once upright and dignified father go?

How can you so readily kowtow to a boy who is several years younger than your son?

Now, all I see is a dog.

"Quickly, kneel down before Lord Ian! Drake!"

Barrerus carefully propped himself up, reaching out to press Drake's shoulder, wanting him to kneel down and kowtow with him, "Quickly thank him for his kindness!"

However, Drake simply straightened his back and remained motionless.

His face was ashen, his heart withered, yet he refused to kneel.

You brat!! What are you doing?! This is my only chance to live!!

Barrerus roared inwardly, "You son of a bitch, kneel down right now! Consider it repaying the man who gave you life!!"

Drake finally turned his head and looked at his father.

Barreus's cheek muscles twitched, and his eyes were bloodshot. Drake saw surprise, joy, and anger in his eyes.

then.

"It's so noisy! You jerk!!"

Drake suddenly sprang to his feet, his frail body swinging a powerful punch that slammed into Barreus's face, knocking his elderly father to the ground. The words that had been hidden deep within him finally burst forth: "I want to be Drake a Marine! Not Drake a Pirate!"

Barrerus was momentarily stunned, then instinctively roared in anger, "Dre—"

Before he could even finish calling Drake's name, Drake roared at Ian with all his might, "I will not join you!"

Pirates are evil.

The Beasts Pirates are the worst of the worst, a truly evil army.

Drake knew that refusal meant death.

But even if it meant death, he didn't want to be associated with these people!

He didn't want to be as lowly as his father, like a dog.

"Oh! This guy is quite interesting!"

Yamato started clapping, "Haha, I want to beat my dad up like that too!"

"Don't say that in front of Teacher Kai."

Ian gave instructions.

Teacher Kai might not be that angry, but he'll definitely be more serious when he beats her up later, because if he's going to beat her up, he has to be stronger.

"Then take him away."

Yamato said.

"I think so."

Ian's lips curled into a smile.

A fighter with the strength of a sixth-rank soldier is still quite useful.

As for Drake's resistance at this moment, it's not a troublesome matter.

Such naive justice, this pointless yearning for the navy, is so easy to shatter.

Who told the so-called righteous navy to be nothing more than a bunch of clowns?

If pirates are scum, then the Navy is a beautifully packaged cesspool. No matter how glamorous their appearance or how deafening their slogans, the one thing that can never be changed is that they are protecting a pile of shit, a pile of shit that has made the whole world stink.

"I won't—"

Drake instinctively wanted to argue, but Ian's single glance was enough to make him collapse.

Conqueror's Haki, kid.

Barreus huddled together, trembling with fear.

Ian looked down at the cowardly man, but had no intention of killing him.

"Do you want the friendship of the Beasts Pirates?"

Barreluston paused for a moment, then flipped himself to his feet, his expression incredibly fawning, "Yes! Of course I'm willing!"

My heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest!

The friendship of the Beasts Pirates!

With such a powerful backer, who in the entire Beihai would dare to mess with me?

Is Lao Tzu's luck finally about to change?

Ian could see the man's smugness, and he smirked. "Listen, do what you're supposed to do from now on. The Beasts Pirates won't give you any help, and you won't be allowed to operate under our banner."

"Eh?"

Barreus looked somewhat bewildered.

What's the difference between this self and the past?

"But contact me when you feel you have something that you need to tell me."

Ian said, "If I think that's useful, I'll reward you; but if I think it's insignificant, I'll kill you."

Barreus's body trembled.

It's clearly a child with an innocent face, so why is it so terrifying?

He nodded repeatedly with a forced smile, "Yes, yes, Lord Ian, I understand!"

"great."

Ian chuckled.

Why issue such a nonsensical order?
