At the sa ti, Ian also mobilized the entire Beast Pirates to search for a suitable Devil Fruit for Kuina.
Since he had promised, he had to keep his word.
Since he couldn't give her the replica of the Azure Dragon Fruit, he would find her a suitable Devil Fruit.
The ideal choice would be a Mythical Zoan, but a special Paracia was also acceptable. At the very least, it should be a powerful Ancient Zoan.
Logia fruits were ruled out, as they were difficult to find and didn't suit Kuina's role as a swordswoman.
During this period, Stussy had also started to take action.
Her report to the Five Elders was that she had successfully made contact with Ian, but since the ti was too short, she hadn't been able to establish a deeper connection or exert any influence.
However, she discovered that the pirates on the Golden Dragon ship generally believed Ian should be the true leader of the Beast Pirates, as Kaido had already beco outdated.
The Five Elders were very satisfied with this and urged her to continue her efforts.
By the way, the Five Elders also instructed her to try to sow discord between Ian and the giants.
When she told Ian about this, Ian couldn't stop laughing.
It seed that the governnt was indeed shocked by the army of three hundred giants.
At the sa ti, Stussy also told Ian that it wasn't just the Five Elders who were shocked, but Linlin had also stepped up her strategy against the Giant Kingdom.
Almost every other day, she sent things to Elbaf.
Ian could only sigh.
Does Aunt Linlin not understand the simple truth that a sycophant never ends well?
Is this the power of the "white moonlight" in her heart?
Now, he sowhat understood those domineering CEOs in substitute literature.
Let her do it, after all, Aunt Linlin's final thod is always marriage alliances.
In the face of true friendship, it's just too fragile.
Just casually giving advice to his good buddies, and Aunt Linlin ends up losing everything.
After handling the affairs on Hive Island, Ian decided to return to Wano Country.
It was ti to put on a big show with Kaido again.
The Golden Dragon Ship was prepared and set sail.
Ian also brought along Solem and the other giants. Since it was ant to be a big show, they should head in the most lively direction.
Almost at the sa ti that the Golden Dragon Ship set sail, a breeze reached the seas controlled by the Beast Pirates.
This breeze didn't head directly toward Wano or Hive Island, but towards the islands in the area.
"Although I've heard of it for a long ti, let first see the area you rule, Ian, before we et."
After about two weeks of sailing, the Golden Dragon Ship had already approached the Wano Country waters.
"Wano Country? What kind of country is that?"
Zoro, who was training, asked curiously as he leaned on the ship's railing.
"A boring country," Instructor Jack casually replied, "It's the largest factory and farm for our Beast Pirates."
Once a country of samurai, it now no longer has the sharp edge it once had.
Now, this country only has workers and farrs.
Zoro seed to understand, but not entirely.
"So, next we'll finally see the legendary Kaido of the Beast, right?"
Ace, however, was excited about sothing else, "The one who stands alongside Ian as one of the Four Emperors!"
"You brat," Jack glanced at Ace, "You don't actually think you're going to challenge Boss Kaido, do you?"
"Heh heh," Ace smiled brightly, "He and I have the sa ability!"
"You and Boss Kaido have the sa ability!"
Jack said, "Also, don't do sothing stupid. You're far from his level."
He paused, "But maybe you'll get to witness Boss Kaido's strength with your own eyes."
Jack was well aware that with Kaido's personality, after Ian returned, there would surely be a battle between them.
"Oh?"
Ace's eyes imdiately lit up.
Speaking of Kaido, he was the one who had once fought that bastard father of his!
"The world's strongest creature!"
Kuina also showed anticipation in her eyes, "Ian's teacher, what kind of terrifying power does he have?"
This world was far larger than they had ever imagined.
But fortunately, they were now on Ian's ship, who stood at the top of the world.
Soon, they arrived at Wano Country.
The towering mountain walls amazed Ace and the others, who had never been here before. "Is Wano Country up there?"
Ian used his usual trick, transforming into a golden dragon and directly lifting the whole ship up the cliff, entering Wano's inner sea.
"Sea on the sea?"
Kuina looked around, "I think Grandpa told stories like this when I was a child?"
"Up ahead is Onigashima," Jack reminded the young ones who had never been here before. "Stay in line, and if anyone loses face for Brother Ian, don't say I didn't warn you!"
He turned his head and shot a fierce look at one side. "Especially you! Enel!"
Enel, the most unruly person on the ship, snorted but didn't say anything.
Anyway, Onigashima was already in sight.
As they got closer, the fishn and rmaids living in the nearby waters surfaced to greet Ian's return.
Although there were plenty of fishn and rmaids on the Golden Dragon ship, this many was still enough to leave Ace and the others dumbfounded.
The number was just too overwhelming!
At that mont, Ace, who was looking up at Onigashima, suddenly froze in place.
He saw a dragon!
A blue dragon flew out from the eye socket of a giant skull!
It was huge!
At least several hundred ters long!
In comparison, he felt as small as an earthworm in front of it!
"Kaido!"
Ace shouted excitedly. "That's Beast Kaido!"
Soday, I'll be that big too!
The blue dragon quickly flew up above Onigashima, looking down at the approaching Golden Dragon ship.
"Gahahahaha! Brats! It's about ti you showed up! What are you waiting for!"
On the deck, Ian smiled and looked back.
"Get ready for battle."
"Huh?"
Law was stunned.
Battle preparations?
Isn't this our base?
Who are we preparing to fight?
Yamato's eyes suddenly lit up. "Are you planning to completely overthrow Dad?"
Ian didn't answer. In the next mont, a golden light erupted, and he transford into a golden dragon, soaring into the sky and flying straight to the top of Onigashima.
"Well done, kid," Kaido observed Ian, "Even that old geezer, Shiki, was defeated by your hands."
"If I could win once, winning a second ti isn't sothing to brag about."
Ian remained humble, flapping his wings and stirring up a violent wind at the top of Onigashima. "How are you thinking about my proposal, Kaido-sensei?"
"Since the World Governnt wants us, master and apprentice, to have a conflict, let's give them a good show."
"Let's start a full-scale war!"
Onigashima and Hive Island.
Headquarters and branches.
Old-tirs and the young ones.
A true internal war within the Beasts Pirates!
It's just the right ti to see how far my companions have grown.
"Muahaha!"
Kaido laughed loudly, "You're making it sound so interesting, how can I possibly refuse!"
"Then let's do it!!"
And so, the war began!
