"Then what's the situation on the island now?"
Ian put away the Thunder Stone and asked Ke Nanai. Teana Novel
"I'm not too sure!" Kona Nayi said, "However, although the miners were killed this time, there are still as many people left. The population of this island is about 200,000. The number of slave miners is at least 20,000, which is unmatched by pirates!"
"Well, indeed!" Ian nodded and said, "Although the Pirate King hired other pirate groups to suppress the uprising of the miners, such suppression might be counterproductive, right?"
"Of course!" Kona Nay nodded and said, "It was a mistake for him to hire pirates. The bloodthirsty pirates have already aroused the anger of the people on the island, but..."
"Just what..." Ian asked.
Ke Nanai said: "It's just that the miners are ordinary people after all. Even if they want to resist tyranny, they lack weapons, so the consequences are unpredictable."
Hearing this, Ian frowned and thought.
Obviously, Kona Nayi also saw Ian's thoughts, that's why she said this, and wanted Ian to help the people on this island. She was in the village at the time and witnessed the whole process. The atrocities of the thieves rushing in and slaughtering the old, the weak, women and children, the crimes born on this island have made Kona Nayi unbearable.
Ian is a member of the Revolutionary Army, and he is a companion with Kona Nayi. Apart from these, Ian also wants to hold the Thunder Stone in his own hands and become a unique business of the Dragon Hunter Pirates, so No matter how you think about it, Ian has a reason to make a move.
But now, Ian actually has two paths, one is to help the people on the island and overthrow the rule of the Pirate King, and the other is to cooperate with the so-called Pirate King.
However, the second method is not suitable, not to mention that Ian is not the kind of person who does evil in the first place, just to say that Ian came to the door like this, the Pirate King must trust him.
Ian can be sure that the so-called thunder stone mineral has not been circulated. Didn't the ore be refined in the palace? The Pirate King is very cautious, he should just be making a secret deal with the world government, otherwise, the Thunder Stone found on this island may have been coveted by the other four emperors long ago.
And if Ian came to the door, with his reward of 650 million Baileys, I am afraid that it will arouse the fear of the Pirate King in the first place. To be honest, the Pirate King might be even more worried that Ian would discover his secret, and would try his best to get Ian to leave here.
Therefore, Ian has only the first way to go now, and that is to help the miners here, help them overthrow the rule of this pirate king, wait until the miners elect a new king, and then use the identity of Shichibukai to serve this pirate king. The country provides asylum in exchange for the privilege of trading Thunderstone.
Thinking of this, Ian asked Kenanayi: "The rebel army on the island should have other strongholds, right? Can you contact them?"
"We need to try this!" Kona Nayi said: "After this suppression, the rebel army will definitely be more careful."
"Then find a way to contact them!" Ian said, "Perhaps, I can provide them with weapons!"
Hearing this, Ke Nanai immediately cheered up and said, "Really?"
"Well, at least 60% sure!" Ian said: "Well, let's split up now, you go to find Hutao and Yaldi, and then find a way to contact the rebel army here. After we help bury the people here, You have to go back to the ship, and the ship will stop at the port of this island, you go there to find us."
Kona Nayi agreed, stood up with support, touched Ian's chest slightly and saluted, and said with a smile, "Okay, my captain!"
When Ian heard this, he couldn't help but smile. In fact, he also knew that Uncle Xiong and the others sent Kona Nayi and the others here, in fact, to get him some comrades from the Revolutionary Army as helpers. Calling themselves that means they are already one of their crew members.
Ian originally had a good impression of the three of them, and the more people there were, the better.
Kona Nayi left, while Ian took Zeke and the others, dug a big pit in the village, and buried the dead bodies here. To be honest, although he had killed people himself, but this kind of This is the first time I have seen a bloody massacre. The pirates in the new world are even more ferocious than those in the first half of the great route. Ian can't bear to look at the horrified and desperate eyes of these corpses. The only thing he can do now is What I did was to prevent these people from dying in the wilderness.
"Captain, when the time comes to kill these pirates, please take us with you!" Zeke and the others said to Ian, suppressing the killing intent in their hearts after finishing their work.
"Don't worry, you are indispensable!" Ian nodded.
Afterwards, Ian led everyone back the same way, came to the beach, and returned to the boat of the Dragon Hunter Pirates in a small boat.
As soon as they got back to the boat, Fujitora and the others surrounded him and asked what was going on. Ian didn't hide it from them, and told the whole story, but temporarily concealed the Thunder Stone.
"Then what do you plan to do next?" Fujitora asked him.
Ian didn't answer him, but looked at ay-5 and said, "Now, I'll let you go back!"
Ay-5 was a bit surprised with a cigarette in his mouth, and said, "Let me go back?"
"I need you to go back and contact your young master!" Ian said with a smile, "Tell Doflamingo, I plan to do business with him!"
"What business?" Ay-5 asked with a complicated expression.
"Weapon sales!" Ian said, "I need about 20,000 guns and swords, and some mortars if possible. Don't deny it too quickly. I know that Doflamingo is in the arms business. You can tell He can sell whatever he wants!"
On the surface, Doflamingo is Shichibukai, and he is also the king of Dressrosa. Most people don't even know that he is one of the brokers in the underground world, but Ian just broke Doflamingo's words. On the contrary, ay-5 was a little surprised by his identity.
"If it's possible, I hope you will escort the weapons to me to hand them over!" Ian said to her with a smile.
"Why...why?" Ay-5 was made by the required character, and couldn't help but asked with his red face.
"I said, as long as you are willing, you are a member of our pirate team!" Ian laughed.
That's right, ay-5 is indeed a member of Doflamingo's family, and he is still a family member who has lived together for more than ten years, but Ian is very clear that ay-5 is only because of his personality, and he has been kept by Doflamingo for a long time. It's just for use. Doflamingo's so-called kinship doesn't seem to be very deep in ay-5. Ian feels that if he poach a corner, he will definitely be able to poach ay-5.
Of course, poaching corners also depends on the timing. To be honest, even with this mentality, Ian is really good to ay-5. Very good, Ian sincerely intends to treat him as a companion, so subtly, maybe ay-5 can realize the difference between him and Doflamingo. !
Ay-5 finally left, escorted by two members of the Dragon Hunter Pirates, to Dressrosa, and at the same time brought the arms deal agreement.
Ian said that he was sure to get the weapon because of the relationship between Doflamingo and him now. It is true that Ian killed Virgo, and Doflamingo also wanted to kill Ian to avenge Virgo. , but because Ian has something that Doflamingo wants very much, before the identity chip is obtained, then Doflamingo will not turn against Ian on the surface for the time being.
So taking advantage of this time, Ian intends to make use of this relationship first. In his estimation, Doflamingo will most likely agree to this arms deal.
After the source of the weapon was settled and ay-5 left, Ian finally expressed his plan in front of the members of the Dragon Hunter Pirates.
He planned to bring everyone along and dock at the port of this island in a fair manner.
According to Ian's estimation, although the rebel army on the island was suppressed with the help of pirates this time, the king would definitely not be completely at ease. He might continue to hire more pirates to work for him.
Some people may ask, as a king, wouldn't that guy form an army to suppress the uprising? Why do you have to find pirates
This is probably due to psychological reasons. Ian is very clear that this pirate king who seeks to usurp the throne must have no sense of security. If he wants to form an army, then the source of troops for the army must be recruited from this island. Well, as an outsider, if he puts his own safety on the aborigines here, it will definitely not work. If one day the army suddenly turns against him and overthrows him again, it will be a mess.
Therefore, the king will hire pirates to be thugs. After all, pirates who use money to do things don't need to spend a lot of money to support them for a long time, and as long as the reward is enough, these pirates will also be very happy. Desperate.
At the moment when the opponent still wants to continue to hire thugs, the appearance of Ian and the Dragon Hunter Pirates will definitely attract the attention of the opponent.
A pirate group with a bounty of 1.2 billion is definitely the most powerful thug. Even if the time comes, the Pirate King may not be able to resist coming to him even if he feels uneasy.
And what Ian wanted was for the other party to come to him, so that he could get close to the Pirate King.
While supplying weapons to the rebel army on the island, and at the same time wanting to contact the Pirate King, what is Ian trying to do
Do you still need to ask? Of course, I want to find a way to get the refining technology of Leidongshi...
