After hearing Ian's answer, Whitebeard snorted with some disdain, and said, "It's Shichibukai again, why are you guys so keen on this position?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Ian was a little puzzled by what Whitebeard said. Teana Wwww. ⒉
"It's nothing, it's just that your words reminded me of another boy who was Qi Wuhai!" White Beard raised his head and took a sip of his wine.
Ian thought for a while, and immediately realized that what Whitebeard said was Crocodile, the sand crocodile, right
According to Ian's memory, Crocodile seems to have some grievances with Whitebeard. Crocodile tried to attack Whitebeard during the top war, and seemed to always want to take down Whitebeard's rank.
What is the relationship between the two, Ian has no way of knowing now, but after getting along with the Whitebeard Pirates for so many days, Ian knows that the position of the second captain of the Whitebeard Pirates has always been vacant Yes, now that Whitebeard himself suddenly said such a sentence, Ian couldn't help thinking about it.
Could it be that this vacant captain of the second team belonged to Crocodile in the first place!
This kind of conjecture has not been confirmed. Ian also asked the people of the Whitebeard Pirates, but found that many people don't know about it. The position of the captain of the second team seems to have been vacant for a long time.
Shaking his head, he temporarily put these thoughts aside, he knew that now was not the time to care about them.
Although at the beginning, it was Uncle Xiong who proposed to let Ian join Qiwuhai. At that time, Ian joined the Revolutionary Army under his guidance. When Uncle Xiong might want to become Qiwuhai to help him do something, however, with the constant travel in the new world and the mediation of the navy, Ian gradually discovered that the position of Qiwuhai might really be of interest to him. Great use.
Joining the Qiwuhai means that he will not be hunted down by the navy in the future, and he has corresponding privileges, so Ian can have a longer time to improve himself.
It has been a year since he went to sea. Although Ian's strength has increased a lot, generally speaking, he has gradually found that his growth rate has begun to slow down.
The card system was originally evolved from the game. Naturally, the common problem of the game cannot be avoided, that is, the improvement is fast in the early stage, and the improvement is slow in the later stage. Ian's current strength is roughly on the same level as that of the Whitebeard Pirates, Marko and the others. Those who can compete with the admiral a few times, but they may not be able to win the admiral steadily. It is actually not bad to have such strength in a year, but as the proficiency of various basic skills requirements becomes more and more After a high level, and even the advanced level needs to be supported by one's own comprehension, Ian's strength growth will naturally slow down.
So he felt that there should be a period of time as a buffer period to allow himself to settle down.
Not only him, but the strength of the Dragon Hunter Pirates also needs to be improved. More and more powerful people must join. If one is not careful, it may lead to the destruction of the pirate group...
After thinking about it, Ian felt that becoming Qi Wuhai was a good decision.
Of course, this is not the only way. For example, Ian can also join the Whitebeard Pirates and accept Whitebeard's protection, or if he can find the Red Pirates, it is also a good choice.
However, compared to joining the Four Emperors, Qiwuhai is more free. Among other things, Ian needs a lot of money to recharge in exchange for diamonds to improve his strength. The money you get must be handed over, right? And even though Shichibukai had to obey the navy's orders in name, in fact, as long as Ian didn't want to talk to them, there was nothing they could do.
"Since you want to join Qibuhai, I won't stop you! However, in my opinion, it may be difficult for the Navy to agree!" White Beard said to Ian: "After all, you and Ace are brothers, so There is also an indirect relationship with the Whitebeard Pirates, and it is impossible for the Navy to let people who are involved with the Four Emperors become Qiwuhai!"
When Ian heard this, he couldn't help frowning, what Whitebeard said seemed to make sense!
"No matter what, the news has been conveyed by the CPO people!" Ian finally said: "Even if the navy disagrees, it doesn't matter, the big deal is that my pirate group and I will continue to explore the new world."
"Gula la la la!" Whitebeard laughed, and then couldn't help asking: "What exactly does the world government want you to hand over? Seriously, I was very strange before, you have such a high reward amount, The navy actually expects to capture you alive!"
Yi'an didn't snark him, saying: "That's a Tianlong people's identity chip, maybe it's very important to them!"
"Oh!?" White Beard raised his eyebrows: "Can you show it?"
"It's not on me!" Ian shook his head, saying that he didn't know how the Revolutionary Army cracked it, and he didn't know when he would be able to return it.
"Forget it!" Whitebeard snorted and said, "In a few days, the Whitebeard Pirates will leave. Although this is my old friend's country, it's not good to stay here all the time. Many pirates I don’t dare to come to this island anymore, Salamis needs tourists to support me, my pirate group has already done what they can, but you can stay here for a while.”
"Well! Dad, I see!" Ian nodded, he understood what White Beard meant, he meant that the Dragon Hunter Pirates could stay in Sara until they received a reply from the navy. Meas Island, anyway, is also an island sheltered by the Whitebeard Pirates. I believe the navy dare not come again.
It can be said that Ian and his pirate group have really inherited a lot of love from White Beard, even if they are leaving, they will not forget to protect the Dragon Hunter Pirate Group again.
"Father, how is your physical condition?" Ian thought for a while, and asked him: "I have a little healing ability, maybe let me help you treat it!"
"Oh!?" White Beard was a little surprised, and after glancing at Ian, he said, "Okay, after dinner, come find me!"
Whitebeard's current physical condition is actually pretty good, but he has already begun to deploy a medical team, but the so-called medical treatment is in conflict with his alcoholic hobby. Whitebeard doesn't want to collapse, but if he wants to It is even more impossible for him not to drink. Since Ian said that he has the ability to heal, let him try it. Maybe he will not be troubled by alcohol withdrawal.
With the departure of Whitebeard, the crowd dispersed, and Fujitora came to Ian and asked him: "Brother Ian, you are really bold, not to mention asking for the position of Shichibukai from the world government, but even so much?" How much? 2 billion is not a small amount!"
Ian smiled and said: "Of course I know, this amount is just a room for them to bargain. I estimate that the world government will agree to half of it at most, which is great!"
"Half of it is 1,000,000,000 Baileys!" Fujitora said: "If you use it for gambling, you can gamble for a long time!"
Ian laughed and said, "Uncle Fujitora, it's hard to say if you want to gamble. When we are no longer chased by the navy, I will take you to the Golden City to have fun!"
"Oh!? Really!?" Fujitora suddenly showed an excited smile on his face. In fact, he had already heard about the Golden City, but the world's largest gambling ship was always floating on the sea. , the whereabouts are uncertain, if ordinary people do not rely on luck, they may not be able to reach it.
The other members of the Dragon Hunter Pirates couldn't help but gather around when they heard this, and looked at Ian with bright eyes.
Ace also supported his cowboy hat and said with a grin, "Although I don't know how to gamble, but Ian, if you want to play, you must remember to call me!"
"Don't worry, there is not only a casino, but also a lot of delicious food!" Ian couldn't help but replied with a smile.
Hearing what Ian said, Ace became even more interested. Just as he was about to ask something, a voice suddenly came in.
"Hey, Brother Yi'an, can you take me with you too? I like to gamble too!"
Ian looked back, and immediately frowned, because it was none other than Blackbeard Marshall Titch who spoke!
He was grinning his big mouth with missing teeth, rubbing his hands and smiling at Ian, and the jewelry rings on the ten fingers of both hands matched his appearance, making this guy see It sounds rude and upstart.
During this period of time, Ian had met Black Beard a lot. Since he was always wary of Tiqi, even if he met, Ian rarely talked to him.
Since I met him when I was on Tiaodao, and Tiki is still a man with white beard, Ian can only take such a cold treatment for the time being. Although Tiki wants to talk to Ian several times, Ian But they ignored him.
I didn't expect this guy to come again...
"Oh, let's talk!" Ian said blankly.
Ace gave Ian a strange look, and then looked at Ticky again. He also remembered that Ian had told him to be careful about Ticky, so he couldn't help observing Ticky carefully.
However, what Ace saw was a simple and honest smile on Tiki's face.
Ian answered so sarcastically, if it were someone else, I am afraid that he should have left wisely, but Tiqi did not, he smiled and said: "Don't be like this, Ian! You have been ignoring me, yes What misunderstanding did you have when you were not on Tiao Island? If it weren’t for you and that beautiful Pirate Empress, I wouldn’t have been able to escape, so I always wanted to thank you face to face!”
