It was precisely because of this thought that Ian thought of exchanging Germa's technology with the world government for pacifists.
Although it was Uncle Xiong who asked Ian to do this in the first place, it is estimated that Uncle Xiong just wanted to give Ian a little more strength.
Ian understands Uncle Xiong's kindness, but Ian is very clear that pacifists sound mighty, but in fact, to the real strong, this kind of robot is nothing, and the use of pacifists In fact, the key lies in the use of clusters. If hundreds of pacifists appear together, they will almost equal the combat effectiveness of all soldiers in the entire navy.
And Ian wanted pacifists, but not because of this point, because he felt that now that he had Waludo under his command, he might be able to find out a little bit about Uncle Xiong and Bergabank by analyzing the pacifists .
Whether it's Nicole Robin or a pacifist, Ian must be in his hands.
Seeing Ian's determination, Crocodile also knew that Nicole Robin might not be able to come back, but it didn't matter to him. Crocodile originally asked Nicole Robin so that she could interpret the historical text Ability, now that Nico Robin is in Ian's pirate group, if Crocodile really finds the historical text, he can also come back to find Nico Robin, as long as he can come up with enough chips.
This is Crocodile's idea, but obviously, his thinking is a bit simple, whether he can get the historical text, even if he gets it back, Robin may not tell him the real content of the historical text, don't Forgot, Robin even lied about the rubbings of Ian's historical text.
There is no way, Robin also knows that her ability to understand the text of history is very dangerous. Before she can figure out Ian's character and intentions, how could she rashly tell the news about ancient weapons? She just wants to pursue the truth, but she doesn't want to be a sinner of history...
So even now, Robin joined the Dragon Hunter Pirates, and it seems more like an obedience. She has not really integrated into the Dragon Hunter Pirates.
Crocodile turned around and was about to leave. Ian said to Crocodile meaningfully: "Have a good trip, remember what I told you, you may come back one day!"
As a result, Crocodile gave Ian a big back without looking back.
Ian smiled and didn't say anything. Crocodile insisted on going back to Alabasta, so he might fall into Luffy's hands in the future. At that time, he might still be killed by the navy. Arrested it.
He is not like Doflamingo, because he is involved with the two pirates of the Four Emperors, which will make the navy have scruples and cannot catch him... If this is the case, then waiting for Crocodile will be the sea monster. The hell of a prison...
The departure of Crocodile and Jinbei seemed to be a signal, and then Sabo and Ace also came.
Sabo planned to leave. He originally came back with Ian to meet Ace this time, but he did not expect to get a lot of weapons in Dressrosa by mistake. This is extremely useful for the revolutionary army. supplies.
Now, Sabo has quietly transferred the collected weapons to another ship with Kona Nay and the others, planning to take advantage of the night tonight to quietly leave Dressrosa and return with these weapons Go to the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army, Bardigo.
The reason for leaving quietly is because there are still Aokiji and a lot of navies on the island. Aokiji saw the smuggled arms found by Ace and Sabo, and he will not allow these weapons to flow out again.
So, after Sabo informed Ian of his intentions, Ian thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, Aokiji will be handled by me!"
Sabo smiled slightly, stepped forward to give Ian a hug, then patted him on the back, and said, "Thank you Ian, I'll go back to the headquarters first, if you need my help, please feel free to contact me I!"
Ace smiled and said, "Look, what did I bring?"
While talking, Ace took out a wine bottle from behind, and under Sabo and Ian's astonished eyes, Ace placed three glasses and poured the wine into the three glasses respectively.
"This is... the wine of sworn brotherhood!?" Sabo recalled it all at once.
"Yeah! I really miss it!" Ace grinned and said, "I remembered the days when we were on the island with Luffy..."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Ian, and said, "But today is different. We once again serve the sworn wine to celebrate the addition of another brother!"
Sabo also smiled slightly, and said, "That's right!"
The two raised their wine glasses first, and looked at Ian with a smile.
And Ian didn't talk too much, just smiled and raised his wine glass.
"Drink this cup of sworn wine, from now on, we are connected by blood, no matter where we are, no matter what we do, this relationship will never be severed..."
After the three of them read this sentence together, the three wine glasses collided together.
After raising their heads and drinking the sworn wine together, the three of them looked at each other, and suddenly burst out laughing together.
Ace lifted his hat, took out a piece of paper, and said, "Let's exchange life papers! Everyone is holding each other's life papers. In this way, no matter which part of the world the other party is in corner, we'll all know where our brother is!"
So, the three exchanged the life papers respectively, Ian took Ace and Sabo's, Ace took Ian and Sabo's, Sabo took Ian and Ace's, and then the three carefully Everyone put the life papers in their hats and put them on again.
This action looked so neat, Ace's cowboy hat, Sabo's top hat, and Ian's bear ear hat, so that after buttoning the hats, the three couldn't help laughing again.
"I'm leaving, you two take care!" Sabo hugged Esian one by one, then turned and left while waving.
After only Ian and Ace were left, Ian turned to Ace and said, "Now that the matter here is over, Ace, are you still planning to hunt down Tiki?"
"Well!" Ace nodded solemnly, and said: "Actually, during this time, I have been asking Sabo to borrow the intelligence network of the Revolutionary Army to track down Tiqi's whereabouts for me, and there is also news from my father. , so I have now grasped the whereabouts of Tiqi. During the time we hunted Germa and arrived in Dressrosa, he seemed to have stayed in the West Sea for a long time, but now he seems to have the intention of returning to the great route I must seize this opportunity and bring him back."
"Xihai?" Ian sat down again, began to think, and suddenly asked Ace, "Why do you think Tiqi is going to Xihai?"
Ace froze for a moment, not understanding what Ian meant.
Ian explained: "Have you noticed that Tiqi really does things with a purpose, he has stayed in the Whitebeard Pirates for so long, just for a devil fruit he likes, even if he is fleeing, It doesn't look like Xihai who is in a hurry... "
"You mean, he chose Xihai on purpose?" Ace asked with some doubts.
"I can't say for sure!" Ian frowned and said, "I always feel that he went to Xihai for some purpose."
"I heard that Tiki recruited his companions in the West Sea and formed the Blackbeard Pirates!" Ace said, "Maybe he went to the West Sea to recruit companions, after all, there are many famous pirates in the West Sea Woolen cloth."
Ian felt that there was still something wrong, Tiqi wanted to recruit companions, which ocean would not be good to go to? Why did he go to the West Sea? It is said that if you want to find strong people to join, it would be better to go to the South China Sea. After all, the South China Sea is recognized as the strongest among the four oceans.
But Ian is not Tiqi, and he doesn't know what Tiqi's purpose is, so he can only temporarily put it aside.
"Let's do this!" Ian said: "You wait for me for a day or two, and after I have arranged the matters of the pirates, I will hunt down Tiki with you!"
It is impossible for Ian to let Ace go after Blackbeard alone. If that is the case, he suspects that Ace will still fall into the hands of Tiki. Now that the wine of sworn brotherhood has been drunk, he and Ace have become real Brother, of course it is even more impossible to sit back and watch this kind of thing happen.
"Okay!" Ace thought for a while, and accepted Ian's suggestion. After all, it was the white-bearded father who asked him to come to Ian. Ace respected Whitebeard very much, so Ace naturally listened to what he said. And he is also very convinced by Ian's words, he always feels that Ian knows everything, and when he is with him, he will feel much more confident in doing things.
So, after Sabo left quietly by boat that night, Ian also started to make arrangements...
