One Piece: Winged Dragon of the Beasts Pirates

But we won!

Ian killed the Golden Lion!

"hiss--"

Aokiji still gasped, "Although I knew long ago that Zephyr-sensei was defeated by this move, this is the first time I've seen the destructive power of this move firsthand."

"Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?"

That's a golden lion!

Even though Shiki is much weaker than he was at his peak, he is probably weaker than Ian, who has mastered Conqueror's Haki.

But that's not the reason why he was killed by Ian with a single sword strike, is it?

It should have been a close fight, but the actual result was like an adult beating a child.

"We absolutely cannot let that kid's scarlet flames hit us!"

Hero Garp spoke with utmost seriousness.

In the sky, Dorrag also had a solemn look in his eyes.

I should say I'm glad, glad that this guy is also on the opposite side of the World Government.

"Let's go."

Ian flapped his wings and descended, the crimson sword in his hand reverting to a small fire spirit that perched on his shoulder, feigning death.

"It's time to go back."

The music ended and the crowd dispersed.

?

At that moment, light gathered in the sky, and a figure appeared from within the light.

"Oh dear, am I too late, or too early?"

Ian looked up, and there was another troublesome guy.

There's going to be a rematch, it's never-ending.

I revised Ace's reaction in the previous chapter, and forgot about Sabo.

Kizaru actually got here so quickly?

Ian looked up at the figure in the sky, feeling somewhat helpless.

Now that this guy has shown up, it means the Navy won't let tonight's battle end easily.

"Shanks, what do you say?"

Ian landed beside Redhead and Hawkeye, and said calmly.

Excluding Dorag, the situation is very unfavorable for him.

Even if you include Shanks and Hawkeye in his camp, they are still at a significant disadvantage against the three Marines from Shanghai.

Hawkeye, who was severely injured by Shiki, should be no match for either Aokiji or Kizaru.

Shanks, who is far from reaching his peak, is probably only at a similar level to Kizaru and Aokiji.

And most importantly, there's also Garp.

This senior is much stronger than the Golden Lion.

He didn't hide his identity for over a decade; instead, he fought on the front lines of the navy for decades, and his strength has probably declined only slightly compared to his peak.

Even now, having mastered Conqueror's Haki's Entanglement, defeating him would likely be incredibly difficult.

"Hahaha, it seems like our opinion doesn't really count."

Red-haired laughed heartily, "Let's see what the Navy has to say."

"so troublesome."

Hawkeye stood up. Although his face was still pale, his hand holding the sword was at least still steady.

Ian chuckled, "Mihawk, you shouldn't have this problem, right? Aren't you one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea under the government's control? The Navy shouldn't do anything to you."

"Don't do that."

Shanks immediately said with concern, "The situation is already bad enough, and now Hawkeye is on the opposite side. We'll have to wait at least a few more hours."

Hawkeye's forehead veins throbbed instantly. Those two bastards!

But Ian smiled and said, "Don't worry, Shanks, Mihawk won't betray us. After all, he still owes me three favors."

Hawkeye gave a forced smile. "When did I owe you three favors again?"

Ian then started counting on his fingers, "Paying for your knife repair in Shimotsuki Village is the first favor. Helping you stop the others so you could fight Golden Lion one-on-one is the second favor. Finally, helping you defeat Golden Lion is also a way of avenging you, so that's the third favor, right?"

Hawkeye desperately wanted to kill someone. "When did I ask you to avenge me?"

You're forcing a favor, aren't you?

"Hahahaha!"

Redhead just laughed out loud.

Ian is a really interesting guy.

If it weren't for Oden's situation, I really would like to be friends with him.

However, Vice Admiral Kizaru, who rushed to the rescue, was also somewhat helpless.

Although he arrived somewhat late, he still witnessed the final clash between Ian and the Golden Lion.

It's definitely an exaggeration to say that he killed the Golden Lion with a single sword strike.

Even the Pirate Emperor couldn't do something like that.

Sure enough, we arrived too early.

Long before the Golden Lion appeared, he had already headed towards the Goa Kingdom.

After all, these three world-renowned pirates—Red-Haired Shanks, Hawkeye, and Ian—have come together.

Even though the government says that the primary goal now is the Golden Lion and that they shouldn't waste their energy on other things, they still have to take this seriously when this situation arises.

So Kizaru arrived.

I never expected that the Golden Lion would also be so unlucky as to attack this place later.

Although the Golden Lion has been defeated, the situation is still very troublesome.

Ian has become incredibly strong; he's completely different from when we clashed on Enies Lobby a few months ago.

Sure enough, I should have come over more slowly.

Kizaru descended from the sky and joined forces with the two vice admirals.

"Borusalino! You've come at the perfect time!"

Hero Garp laughed heartily, "In that case, there's no problem!"

In terms of combat strength, it is more than enough!

"Mr. Nakap,"

Kizaru said leisurely, "Ian is in your hands now. Although he is the youngest, he is as strong as a monster."

He's alright against Red-Haired Hawkeye, but I'd better not go for Ian.

Getting slashed by a sword is no joke.

"Leave that brat to me!"

Lieutenant General Garp said solemnly.

Ian is indeed too dangerous; Borsalino and Kuzan could very well be killed if they faced him.

It is precisely because of the danger that we cannot allow him to continue to grow. Otherwise, in ten years, who in this world will be able to restrain him?

"Then let's fight."

Aokiji became serious for once, which was uncharacteristic of him.

Even if he was confused, dealing with the pirates was never the wrong thing to do, right?

"Tsk, is he going to kick me while I'm at it? Vice Admiral Garp."

Ian, his body gleaming with gold, crossed his arms and said with a hint of mockery, "I just did your navy a huge favor. Otherwise, what would you have done if Senior Golden Lion had left?"

"Oh, Ian, can you please stop making the dogfighting between pirates sound so righteous?"

Kizaru pushed up his sunglasses and said leisurely, "Making your move when you're both exhausted is what adults call strategy."

Ian couldn't help but laugh out loud.

That actually makes a lot of sense.

After all, as the old saying goes, what's the point of talking about chivalry with these evil spirits and heretics?

"Kid!"

Vice Admiral Garp stepped forward, rubbing his hands together, and asked, "Ready to enter Impel Down?"

Standing behind Ian, Ace couldn't help but speak up, "Old man—"

That's hardly ethical, isn't it?

Garp then remembered that his grandson was still with Ian, and he quickly called out, "Ace! Come here!"

Ace pursed his lips.

He insisted on coming with Ian, firstly to see his despicable father's old rival, and secondly, of course, to find his friend.

However, when he actually came with Ian, all he saw was a turbulent sea. The sea, which should have been full of ships, was now empty, with only the wreckage of some ships remaining.

Sabo should have left here by boat with his family long ago.
