The Sun Pirates were about to leave.
They didn't even attend the banquet Ian had ntioned to welco them.
Tiger just wanted to get back to Fish-Man Island as quickly as possible.
Ian didn't stop him, only having Jack represent him to send the Sun Pirates off.
Tiger's attitude had changed drastically compared to when he arrived last night. Letting him return to Fish-Man Island earlier wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Standing at the dock, watching the ship take the Sun Pirates away, Ian stretched comfortably.
With this, the wave of immigrants to Fish-Man Island should be unstoppable.
As for what was said last night about the other forces in the world trying to win over Fish-Man Island...
In theory, it should be like that, but in reality, it wasn't.
First of all, the World Governnt would never do such a thing.
The World Governnt held an inexplicable disdain for Fish-Man Island, always viewing them as re fish.
How could they possibly recruit the Fish-n?
Even if they did, the uncontrollable Celestial Dragons would definitely give the Fish-n a huge surprise.
Then, the only forces capable of protecting the Fish-n would be a few pirate crews from the New World.
Whitebeard, who had always been the protector of Fish-Man Island, had no fixed ho, so they were out.
Ochoku's strength was far weaker, and Hive Island had no defenses, making it completely uncompetitive.
However, Charlotte Linlin's Big Mom Pirates could challenge Wano Country. After all, that country was actually quite secure, and ordinary pirates couldn't even get in.
But in any case, from now on, the Beast Pirates would be Fish-Man Island's most trusted ally.
It would be even better if the Sun Pirates could stay in the New World.
Jinbe, a future Warlord of the Sea, had unparalleled combat ability in the sea, making him an enormous asset.
As for Tiger's problem, solving it was actually quite simple.
Isn't the World Governnt determined to eliminate him no matter what?
Then, let Tiger die once.
There are plenty of ways to fake his death.
Then, he can proudly bring the Sun Pirates under his command.
It's all up to their decision.
"Has Mr. Tiger already left?"
Hancock appeared at the dock with her two sisters.
"I've already thanked you on his behalf," Ian said. "Tiger said, let you live your lives well."
Upon hearing this, the three Hancock sisters were deeply moved.
The two younger sisters had tears in their eyes.
What an incredible man, Tiger.
Ian couldn't help but sigh again.
Then, soone showed up late.
"Huh? Tiger?"
"The Sun Pirates? Who are they?"
Yamato looked completely confused.
This girl went to bed too early last night, woke up early this morning, but spent all her ti training and had no idea what had happened.
Anyway, the visit from the Sun Pirates seed to have been satisfactory for both parties.
Except for…
"What about Arlong?"
On the ship of the Sun Pirates, which had already sailed away from Wano, Tiger looked at his little brother, who was lying on a bed wrapped in thick bandages, with great concern.
Beside him, the ship's doctor, Aladine, shook his head. "He's suffered full-body fractures, and more importantly, his brain has been seriously damaged. He probably won't be able to be a pirate anymore."
Tiger clenched his fists.
But who could he bla for this?
Is it Ian's fault, or the Beast Pirates' fault?
At that ti, the Beast Pirates had no idea who they were. They completely regarded them as invaders.
It was already quite generous of them to show rcy later on.
Moreover, the injuries he sustained were entirely his own fault. At that ti, they had noticed sothing was off about that giant beast and warned him to be careful, but he stubbornly charged ahead.
However, as a captain, one should be responsible for their crew.
"Send him back to Fish-Man Island to recuperate," Tiger said.
"Then, Big Brother Tiger,"
Jinbei spoke up at this mont, "What about the matter Ian entrusted to you?"
Tiger fell silent for a mont before solemnly replying, "I will truthfully describe to our people what we saw in Wano."
Jinbei nodded gently.
This was Tiger supporting Ian's stance.
Actually, Jinbei also felt that having their people migrate to Wano was a great idea.
The Beast Pirates were strong enough to protect their people.
And the terrain of Wano was unique, making it hard for human traffickers to infiltrate.
It was just that he felt a bit guilty towards Whitebeard.
The Whitebeard Pirates had been protecting Fish-Man Island since the early days of the Great Pirate Era, but now Fish-Man Island was about to form a close alliance with Whitebeard's enemies and work together with them on the migration.
Would Whitebeard have objections?
Jinbei, who held the ideals of righteousness, felt uneasy and a bit ashad.
Ti passed slowly.
The Sun Pirates didn't take long to return to Fish-Man Island.
Tiger secretly t with King Neptune and his wife.
Then, he quietly returned to Fish-Man District.
Soon after, rumors of Tiger's statent began to spread secretly on Fish-Man Island.
He said that the people who migrated to Wano were living very well, and the Beast Pirates were treating them exceptionally. Those who wanted to live on the surface could consider heading to Wano.
The residents of Fish-Man Island knew the situation Tiger was facing, so they tactfully never ntioned this matter in front of the humans on the island.
But one thing was certain: Tiger's stance had a huge impact on the people of Fish-Man Island.
Not long after, Ian received contact from the Neptune couple, informing him that more Fish-Man Island residents hoped to migrate to Wano Country.
Even in Fish-Man District, a large group of restless fishn hoped to join the Beast Pirates and beco part of their fishman army.
Around the sa ti.
New World, Dressrosa.
King Riku stood at the harbor, watching a ship slowly approach.
"Hehehehe!"
Before the person appeared, a strange laugh had already echoed across the harbor.
"King Riku!"
A man with golden hair, styled upright with a lot of hair wax, wearing a red suit and draped in a pink feathered cloak, swaggered down the ship.
He walked up to King Riku with an almost insolent stride, completely ignoring the furious and sword-ready Kyros standing beside the king.
"Although I'd like to say, it's ti for you to return my property to ," Doflamingo sighed regretfully. "But unfortunately, I'm a man who respects his friends."
King Riku took a step back, looking at the man in front of him with a slightly furrowed brow. "Doflamingo, what exactly do you want?"
This man... Is he really the descendant of the Donquixote family, who beca a Celestial Dragon?
But why is he here? And even more strangely, why is he a pirate now?
"Haven't I already said?"
Doflamingo sneered. "I'm here to protect Dressrosa."
He leaned in and whispered coldly into King Riku's ear, "You should thank your pirate daughter, King Riku."
King Riku was stunned.
Viola?
Is he talking about Viola?
Did Viola do sothing?
He was confused.
