Sailing: I Open Treasure Chests in the Pirate World

"You haven't collected a single Paramecia-type Devil Fruit?"

"What kind of Superman system do you want?"

Hanafda snorted coldly.

"Our Beasts Pirates are not like the Whitebeard Pirates or the Big Mom Pirates, who like to play house!"

"On this dog-eat-dog world, only the wild beasts survive to the end!"

Hanafda didn't mention the Red-Haired Pirates (BJFF).

Because none of the Red-Haired Pirates ate a Devil Fruit...

"Then what do you think..."

Ian looked coldly at the Lizard King.

"Can wild animals see tomorrow's sun?"

"White Dragon! You! I am one of the beasts—"

Before Hanafda could finish speaking...

Ian manipulates the clay to unleash a super punch imbued with the power of the Momo Fruit (100x strength).

Boom!

With just one punch, it seemed to create a grand Buddhist and Taoist ritual in the Lizard King's brain, with chimes, cymbals, and gongs ringing out all at once.

Hanafda's eyes rolled back, and he fell straight to the ground, only exhaling and no longer inhaling.

[Platinum Chest: Hanafda, the Lizard King]

Another five-star system treasure chest has been obtained.

"Robin, continue taking inventory of Hanafda's assets, as well as the pirates on the island."

Ian put away the system treasure chest, gave Robin a word of instruction, and then flew into the sky with Hanafda.

"I have something to take care of."

Ian rode the Blue-Eyes White Dragon into the sky, grabbed Hanafda by the neck, and gave it a gentle twist.

With a "crack," the lizard king's neck broke, and he completely lost his breath.

Ian did not hesitate and skillfully used the power of the [Ring of Magic Control].

It didn't take long.

A Devil Fruit appeared in Ian's hand.

[Zoan Type, Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Ancient Zoan, Tyrannosaurus Rex Form]!

Ian wasn't particularly fond of traditional pirates like Hanafda.

In addition, their background is with the Beasts Pirates...

Taking such a guy into the New World to challenge the Four Emperors is just asking for trouble.

Ian simply ended the other person's life!

You can also get a Tyrannosaurus Rex Fruit along the way...

"This Tyrannosaurus Rex Fruit, and the remaining Chameleon Fruit..."

Ian stuffed the freshly baked Tyrannosaurus Rex Fruit into the body of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

"Why do I feel like I have such a strong connection with 'lizards'?"

Two are animal-type, one is a common species, and the other is an ancient species.

Ian viewed them like chicken bones—tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw away.

"Let's keep it for now!"

Ian sat atop the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, looking down at Banaro Island below.

He pondered for a moment, then took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket and dialed that familiar number.

"Hey, is Aokiji there?"

"Oh, Ian..."

Aokiji's voice came through the Den Den Mushi's receiver.

"Do you feel your life is too comfortable right now and want to increase the difficulty?"

"General Aokiji".

Ian returned to his original posture.

"I'm here to give you credit out of good intentions."

"Credit?"

Aokiji's brows furrowed involuntarily.

"It's... Nico Robin?"

"You seem quite concerned about that 'Demon Child,' Admiral Aokiji."

Ian said in a low, somber tone.

"Are you really not considering coming to my place?"

"If you leave the Navy now and come to me, you can see Robin every day."

"Stop talking nonsense, Ian!"

Aokiji said solemnly.

"I will not leave the Navy! Nor will I serve as your subordinate!"

"Admiral Aokiji, what do you take pirates for!?"

Ian chuckled and said casually.

"The so-called 'pirates' can act together as long as their interests align!"

"Only mediocre people care about subordinates."

"Ah la la..."

Upon hearing this, Aokiji rubbed his head.

"You're really starting to resemble a pirate more and more, Ian..."

"I just received a fax from headquarters today, and I believe you will be interested in it."

What fax?

"About your bounty."

Aokiji took out two wanted posters from his pocket, the one of which had Ian's headshot printed on it.

【White Dragon Ian Adrian】

[Image.JPG]

[Bounty: 9500 million Berries]

[Bounty Level: ONLYALIVE (Capture alive only)]

"The initial bounty can reach 9500 million Berries."

Aokiji looked at Ian's bounty poster and said in a complicated tone.

"Even the Pirate Empress of Amazon Lily is not as 'outstanding' as you."

Aokiji knew Ian was talented, but he didn't know he was this talented!

They matured so quickly!

Who let Ian go undercover?!

Chapter 89 An Invitation to Serve as a Warlord of the Sea!

It's through a Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter).

Ian was naturally unaware of Aokiji's complex inner thoughts.

He only cares about the amount of his initial bounty.

Since joining the Sharp Blade unit.

After working so hard for so long, Ian has finally taken his first step towards becoming a pirate!

Bounty!

Since they've already been put on a bounty by the World Government and the Navy Headquarters.

So, becoming a great pirate, delving into the New World, and infiltrating the ranks of the Four Emperors... is that still a long way off?

Ian dreamed for a moment, then returned to reality.

Hard work paid off, and the reward came in the form of a bounty, making Bai Long very happy.

However, Hakuryu did not like the bounty amount set by the Navy Headquarters.

"Isn't this reward a bit low?"

Ian said, somewhat dissatisfied.

"The initial bounty wasn't even 100 million Berries."

"If I meet other pirates in the future, they will mistakenly think that I am incapable of doing anything great!"

"Could you add another 100 million Berries to my bounty?"

"One letter, plus one hundred million."

Ian Adrian.

One letter plus one hundred million.

Twelve letters plus twelve billion.

That is 1.295 billion peles.

This bounty amount is very much in line with Ian's current normal strength level.

However, Aokiji did not agree.

"The bounty for each pirate is determined by the General Staff of Headquarters based on his past actions and the degree of threat he poses to the government!"

Aokiji reminded him meticulously.

"9500 million peles, that's a really high number!"

"At least as far as I know, neither Crocodile nor Queen Kuja accepted the invitation to become Shichibukai, and neither of them had such a high bounty."

Crocodile, after so many years at sea, only has a bounty of 8100 million Berries.

Boa Hancock, on her very first mission, earned a bounty of 8900 million Berries.

The current bounty amounts for these two individuals are also this figure.

Because once you're invited to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, a pirate's bounty will automatically stop increasing...

The amount of the bounty does not represent the true strength of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

"But a bounty of 9500 million Berries is still a bit low..."

No matter how reasonable Aokiji's words were, Ian was still not satisfied with the bounty amount.

"It should be at least over 100 million Berries, right?"

"One hundred million Berries makes you a supernova; ninety million Berries makes you nothing."

"Oh dear, isn't your focus a bit too strange..."

Aokiji was somewhat troubled by Ian's persistent attitude.

"If you want a higher bounty, you can rob, kill, or storm government buildings—"

"Why should I, a Navy Admiral, discuss such anti-government issues with you?!"
