One Piece: Winged Dragon of the Beasts Pirates

"Then, what should I do?" Ian scratched his head.

"You only need to remember one thing: you are Lao Tzu's disciple! So, just go for it!"

What does it mean to just go for it?

Even after leaving Mr. Kay, Ian was still pondering this question.

Does that mean you can ask for whatever you want?

Just as they stepped outside, Yamato, who had been squatting at the corner counting ants, turned around in surprise. "Ian! Have you finished talking with Dad?"

Although this girl is quite close to Teacher Kai, she's not very interested in discussing serious matters.

"Ah."

Ian nodded. "Have you decided where you want to go?"

We agreed that we would go out and have fun together after we finished our business.

"Maria said there's a fireworks festival in Hana no Hito tonight! Let's go watch it together!" Yamato's eyes sparkled with anticipation. "I've never seen fireworks before!"

Fireworks display?

Ian did know this; Fu Lu Shou had informed him.

After all, this fireworks display was to celebrate the new king's coronation and the victory in the war.

"Okay."

Ian readily agreed.

Come to think of it, he hadn't seen fireworks in a long time.

I wonder what the fireworks in this other world will be like.

Night falls quickly.

In the southern part of Wano Country, Qiangang.

Although this country is closed off from the world, it is not without channels of communication with the outside world; otherwise, the Beasts Pirates would not be able to conduct trade with the World Government.

Qiangang is the channel for external communication.

This port connects to a huge cave beneath Wano Country, and the cave's waterways lead directly to the high walls surrounding Wano Country.

You can travel between the Wano Countryland and the open sea using a giant elevator, but the inconvenience of having to change ships is a bit of a hassle.

This port had been occupied by the Beasts Pirates many years ago. Now, while the Beasts Pirates were consolidating their forces to fight the Kozuki family and had not yet had time to replenish their manpower, a group of samurai attacked and occupied the place.

The samurai waited in the night, and a woman came.

"Madam Shi! You've finally arrived. Princess Hiyori has been asleep on the ship, and she's been crying and begging for you to come back."

"Thank you."

Under the moonlight, Kozuki Toki bowed solemnly to the samurai, saying, "Grant me my impudent request."

The samurai shook their heads. "This is Lord Kang's order. We are his loyal samurai."

A samurai asked, "Lady Toki, how are Lord Ushimaru and the others?"

Kozuki paused for a moment, then shook his head. "I don't know, but the results should come soon."

The samurai nodded. "Then we wish you a safe journey."

Kozuki Toki's face was somewhat bitter; she could detect a hint of contempt on the faces of these samurai.

She could understand; after all, she was about to leave the country.

What are your plans?

Kozuki asked solemnly.

The samurai calmly replied, "Lord Kang is still imprisoned in the Flower Capital. As his samurai, we certainly cannot ignore this."

"We have disbanded the army, but gathered all of Bai Wu's warriors, and are just waiting to find out the exact location of Lord Kang before we begin our operation."

Silence reigns during the moonlit night.

What could she say?

Tell the samurai that going to the Flower Capital is nothing but courting death.

How can you say such things to heroes who are already prepared to die?

She ultimately said nothing.

Kozuki Toki simply entered the harbor, took a huge elevator to the port below, and boarded the ship prepared for her by the samurai.

She is about to leave Wano Country.

The people of Wano Country alone cannot save this country.

Although I feel incredibly ashamed and guilty, I can only rely on the help of others now.

The Kozuki family has harmed this country, so we must save it no matter what!

At dawn, under the bright moon, I set off for the sea.

Under the same bright moon.

The capital of flowers.

boom!

With a muffled thud, a spark shot into the sky, then exploded into countless stars.

The countless stars continued to bloom, and in an instant, the sky was filled with twinkling stars.

And these stars weren't just in one area; across the entire Flower City, countless sparks shot into the sky, bursting into brilliant fireworks.

Countless stars dimmed, and in the blink of an eye, countless stars burst into bloom again, a dazzling display of light and color.

"So beautiful! So beautiful!!"

Above the castle tower, on the horizontal branch of a large tree, Yamato excitedly jumped up and down.

This is the highest point in the entire Flower Capital, and there is no better viewing platform. The entire city's fireworks display can be seen from here.

It is indeed very beautiful, the whole city is magnificent, as if a dream has come to life.

just.

Ian thought to himself, "The Flower Capital is all made of wood. If a fire breaks out, who will put it out?"

Unlike Ian, Yamato was not filled with disappointment. The little girl simply looked up, her round face reflecting the twinkling stars in her golden eyes.

Only when the fireworks stopped did she finally relax and breathe freely, completely satisfied.

"I will never forget this day!"

Yamato clenched his little fists and loudly proclaimed.

"If you like it so much, you can come a few more times."

Ian said casually.

Just kidding. Your brother Ian is now the number two person in Wano Country. If he wants to hold a fireworks festival, it's just a matter of saying a word.

"No."

However, Yamato stuck out her tongue at Ian, "If you see it often, there's no point in remembering it!"

Oh wow, you even know about delayed gratification?

I underestimated you.

I really want to grow up quickly!

Yamato, hands behind his head, sighed with rare exclamation, "That way I can do so many things I want to do! Go to all the places I want to go!"

"grow up?"

Ian simply put his hands in his pockets and calmly said, "That's not a good thing."

"how come!"

Yamato looked at Ian in surprise, "When you grow up, you can do whatever you want! Ian, isn't there anything you want to do?"

What do you want to do?

It's almost the end of the month, please vote for me with your monthly tickets!!!

What do you want to do?

Ian fell into deep thought.

I've been in this world for six years now, and I've never really thought about this before.

Unable to think of an answer immediately, Ian asked Yamato, "Why are you suddenly asking this?"

"Because Ian, it seems like you're not interested in anything other than cultivation!"

Yamato pouted and sniffed, "You didn't seem to like any of those beautiful fireworks, Ian!"

She looked at Ian with a strange expression.

That's... pitiful?

Ian's lips twitched. Was this girl pitying him?

"And what about you? What do you want to be when you grow up?"

Ian asked.

"I want to become stronger than my dad!"

Yamato said seriously, "Then I'll become the new captain of the Beasts Pirates! Dad said that way, I can do everything I want to do!"

Ian wasn't surprised.

He could certainly sense that Kai-sensei truly regarded Yamato as his successor.
