In fact, Ian was also wondering if that guy Tiqi was plotting for Crocodile's position.
He remembered very clearly that that guy was indeed seeking to take the position of Shichibukai. Ian originally thought that he might want to replace Doflamingo's position, but when Ian stood After thinking about it from Tiqi's position, I found that it was not so easy.
That's right, the position of Doflamingo is now vacant, but because Doflamingo was not defeated by Tiqi, Tiqi has no way to prove his strength in front of the navy and the world government. It is impossible to replace Doflamingo as Shichibukai.
But if Tichi himself defeats a Shichibukai with his own hands, then the situation will be different...
In the original history, Tiqi was able to succeed because he captured Ace, the captain of the second team of the Whitebeard Pirates. Now that Ace has not met him, Tiqi probably would not have thought of this, so In Ian's view, the chances of him conspiring against Crocodile are higher.
However, why did he leave for so many days before Ian and the others, and why has Mao not reached Alabasta yet
This is what Ian finds most puzzling.
There is also Crocodile, who obviously has returned to Alabasta, but during the few days when Ian and the others came back to Alabasta, this guy has never appeared. Ian does not believe Baroque Studio Some people would not have received intelligence reports to him, so Ian guessed that Crocodile might not want to see him.
Since this is the case, there is no need for Ian to inform Crocodile of this news, but Ian guessed that even if he told Crocodile, maybe Crocodile would not take it to heart...
While Ian was thinking like this, Lu Fei suddenly sat cross-legged next to Ian, and asked Ian curiously, "Hey, brother of Sauron, are you friends with Ace?"
Ian smiled slightly and said, "No! We are not just friends, we are brothers!"
Lu Fei's eyes widened all of a sudden: "You and Ace are brothers!? Why have I never heard him say that he has an older brother!?"
Ian almost snorted, Luffy, why is he so brainy? Who told him that Ian and Ace are brothers!
Just when Ian was about to explain, a voice suddenly sounded from behind: "Stupid Luffy, Ian and I are sworn brothers!"
Everyone turned their heads and found that Ace had jumped onto the boat at some point. He squatted on the side of the boat, looked at Luffy with a grin, and said, "Just like when we were young, Ian and I were the same Brother who drank the wine of sworn brotherhood!"
"Ace!" Luffy looked at Ace in surprise, got up to meet him, hugged Ace and said, "Ace, I miss you so much!"
Ace pushed Luffy away in disgust, but still smiled and said, "Luffy, I've been waiting for you for many days. It seems that you received my message on Drum Island."
"What message?" Luffy was taken aback.
And Chopper suddenly remembered that it seemed that the people in the village forgot to tell Luffy about Ace's message.
Ace also came to his senses, but he didn't care, it's enough to see Luffy anyway, so he smiled and said: "Luffy, I have good news for you, Sabo is not dead!"
"Sa... Sabo!?" Luffy was dumbfounded when he heard the name suddenly, and then he said in a trembling voice: "Are you serious...really?"
Ace nodded with certainty, and said, "Yes, I saw him this time, but I was able to see Sabo thanks to Ian's help. He brought Sabo back!"
"Great... great!" Lu Fei said, his nose was sour, and he even shed tears.
Next, Ace told Luffy what happened. At the beginning, Luffy listened seriously, but after hearing what Ace said, Ian drank the wine of friendship with the two of them. Afterwards, Lu Fei suddenly became unhappy, he yelled: "Ah! You are so cunning! Why don't you take me with you!"
As for Sauron, he was stunned when he heard this. Of course he could understand the meaning. Brother Ian drank the wine of friendship with Ace and Sabo, and Ace and Sabo belonged to Luffy. Brother Jieyi, doesn't that mean that Ian is also Luffy's brother
Then what is the relationship between himself and Luffy
And Nami and the others were even more shocked. They looked at Ian dumbfoundedly, and then at Ace. They had heard the chat between the two of them just now, and Ace was the captain of the second team of the Whitebeard Pirates. His bounty is also as high as 550 million.
One is 650 million, the other is 550 million, and the total bounty is exactly 1.2 billion. However, the two big pirates with such a high bounty amount are both brothers of Luffy and Zoro!
Nami and the others only felt an urge to faint...
Not to mention Nami and the others, even Reiju was surprised when she heard it, and couldn't help but take a few more glances at the Straw Hat Pirates.
Sanji, is he among the pirates? Maybe that's fine too...
Speaking of Sanji, Sanji also just woke up at this time, and the time for Matthew to hypnotize him just passed, and he rolled over and quickly got up from the deck.
But seeing the expressions of everyone at the scene, he was a little confused about the situation. He didn't know what happened just now. Why did everyone have a dumbfounded expression
However, he didn't care too much anymore, because Reiju's eyes happened to be looking at him right now.
As soon as he saw Reiju's mother-like face and gentle eyes, the soft place in Sanji's heart was also hit. He didn't make any noise, but silently took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, and then lit it with a lighter. He smoked a cigarette with his pockets on like this.
Although Reiju is his sister, Sanji's performance is not as excited as seeing his sister, because Sanji knows very well that in the Vinsmoke family, family affection is something that cannot be talked about.
Reiju walked towards Sanji, and after coming to Sanji's side, she smiled and asked him: "It seems that you still escaped back then..."
"What are you here for?" Sanji's expression softened a lot, and he asked Reiju, "Did you come to take me back under the order of my father?"
"No!" Reiju shook her head and said, "Father doesn't know that you are still alive! I came here just to meet you..."
After Sanji heard this sentence, he didn't know why he breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was very excited after seeing Reiju, he was always worried about what purpose Reiju came for, so when he learned that Reiju was not When Feng Jiaji's order appeared in front of him, he truly recognized Reiju's appearance.
"You... why are you with that guy?" Sanji pointed to Ian over there, and asked Reiju, "You know that guy?"
Reiju wanted to tell Sanji the truth, because she didn't want to lie to Sanji, but Reiju knew that if she told Sanji, she was defeated in the battle with the Dragon Hunter Pirates and then captured, so that she would If she knows Ian, then she can be sure that the child Sanji will rush to fight Ian!
The reason why Reiju misses Sanji so much is because Sanji is actually the gentlest brother in her heart, and if Sanji knows that his sister is being bullied, then this kindness will turn into the most powerful anger, It will make Sanji desperate to avenge himself.
But in fact, for Reiju, there is no enmity between her and Ian, and she also knows that the gap between Sanji and Ian's strength is too big, so she doesn't want Sanji to be too impulsive.
So, Reiju thought of an excuse, and said to Sanji: "He is my friend!"
However, I'm afraid she wouldn't even think of killing Reiju, but just such a sentence made Sanji think wrong!
If you want to say who in the entire Straw Hat Pirates knows the most about men and women, it is Sanji, the perverted cook. Unlike Luffy Zoro and the others, Sanji immediately developed his association.
husband!
That guy, he is going to become his brother-in-law!
boom! Sanji suddenly ignited again, his gentle and beautiful sister is going to get married! ? And the person she married turned out to be the guy who beat her so badly at the Balati restaurant!
Nima! I can't stand it!
So in the next second, Sanji screamed and rushed towards Ian...
