Chapter 260: Fear Us
Before listening to Nanas story, Ian had so doubts about the situation.
That is how and why didnt the residents of this island discover the existence of Thunderstone for so many years, and it happened that these energy stones were found only after the appearance of this King.
Just luck? Give
a break! This Thunderstone does not seem to be a directly produced mineral, which is derived from refining. If they didnt know about the existence of this thing, then how could they think of extracting and purifying it?
Moreover, from the description, the purpose of the king seems to be very clear. the reason behind his occupation of the kings throne was to seize this material. It is by no ans a temporary intention or accidental discovery.
Therefore, Ian doubts the identity of this king. Although Nana said that the new king seems to be an old pirate with a 340-million bounty, which can be classified as a strong pirate, Ian does not think that a pirate alone could have such knowledge. The current problem is the identity of this pirate Ian must co into contact with him now.
After listening carefully to Ians analysis, Fujitora agreed with his statent, saying: Indeed, this king may really be a problem. If a guy can get a bounty of 340 million, then he is definitely not an ordinary pirate. Such a pirate can easily get an important position in any of the Yonkos groups, and whats fishy about this is that he decided to beco the king of such a small island?
The islands economy is not that strong, it is not the kind of island with beautiful scenery that can attract tourists, and its population is also very small. Although they had so gemstones, they were all poor mines with small output. To be a king in such a country planning to make a fortune with these conditions was unrealistic It cant also be compared with a big country like Dressrosa or Alabasta.
If Nana had not been lucky enough to save one of the rebel commanders in this area, learning the background story, and discovering the existence of the Thunderstone, Im afraid they would keep scratching their heads and pondering about the purpose of this pirate/king.
Its really a misfortune of the people here that such a pirate becos their king! Fujitora said, Lets go, Captain, lets see who this 340 million pirate is!
Ian smiled slightly, turned, and shouted: Turn the rudder to the Left ninety-degree, lets find their port!
The place where they landed before was on the side of the island on a beach, not the port. Of course, they had to turn around to land on another side of the island.
After going around the island for half a circle, Ian and the others finally saw the location of the port. The port here was very small, but at this ti, it has been occupied by large and small pirate ships. On these ships, there were different pirate flags. Needless to say, these were all the rcenaries hired by the king.
However, its a bit inappropriate to call them gangsters, its more appropriate to call them rcenaries. Real pirates dont live by just bordering an island, they steal everything in their ways, caravans, ships, and towns anyway, these guys were just rcenaries, as long as they get paid, they were willing to do anything, like suppressing poor civilians
This reminded Ian of Buggys future rcenary organization
At this ti, there were so watchn on these pirate ships berthed at the port. These pirates stayed on the deck drinking Sake. Although they were all employed by the sa boss at the mont, the relationship between these pirates was not so harmonious. Ian saw from a distance that a pirate who had drunk too much wine stood on the side of his ship, facing a nearby pirate ship close to them, pulled down his pants, and start peeing!
Although this guys urination couldnt reach the other ship, he still humiliated the nearby Pirate Group in this way. The drunk pirate and his companions laughed and flicked their middle fingers to the other ship.
In this way, the other group had to react to such actions, so an arrow was imdiately shot near the hip of the one who urinated. Although the arrow missed, the drunk pirate was startled, so the people on both sides started cursing at each other.
The farce there has attracted other pirate groups docked behind them. They were bored because they were on the rear. At this ti, when they saw such a good show, they naturally laughed loudly and started booing. At the sa ti, they begin to encourage the two sides to fight.
The most interesting thing in this world is probably watching other peoples fights and gather around as a crowd of spectators. Everyone in this world had the sa kind of spirit
However, Ians ship appeared under such circumstances!
Since the Dragon Hunters ship was modified from a marine warship, it was much larger than other ships, especially with such cannons on the front, which were very eye-catching. As the pirates who spend many years at sea, they could distinguish the marines ships from miles away, so when Ian and the others just turned from the side of the island, they were spotted by the pirates in the harbor.
HuhMarines!? A pirate who was dizzy and drunk, when he saw Ians ship, he got so scared that he sobered up imdiately, thinking it was the Marines coming As a result, he rubbed his eyes hard and saw their black hull and black pirate flag clearly. Then he got relieved
As the ship approached, more and more pirates saw Ians ship and couldnt help but exclaid: My God! That turned out to be a pirate ship converted from a marine warship! Which pirate group had the courage to do such thing!?
In this sea, the incompetent pirate groups dont dare to have the idea to go against the marines, while the powerful ones may not be impressed or interested in their warships, so its really rare for pirates to steal a warship and turning it into their ships. No wonder why these pirates were so surprised when they saw Ians ship figure
Due to the suns direction at this ti, many pirates have not been able to see Ians flag clearly, so they were all speculating about which Pirate Group has the balls to do such a thing.
The pirates, who were fighting, stopped playing around and went to the back of their ship, looking at the ship heading towards the port, and so clever pirates even jumped off the ship and went to the city to report to their captains.
A gust of wind finally brought so clouds and revealed the pirate flag on the top of Ians mast. The pattern of the sword inserted the dragon skull made the pirates stunned.
At the first sight of this pirate flag pattern, many people couldnt rember which Pirate Groups flag it was, but they had a feeling that they have seen it sowhere, so they searched for the right mory in their minds.
In the new world, the most important thing is to rember the Jolly Roger of the famous pirates. Only in this way can they ensure that they wont provoke enemies they shouldnt
And slowly, after digging in the right places, the face of many pirates suddenly turned pale!
I rembered them! F*CK, isnt this the dragon hunter pirate group that appeared on the screens not long ti ago!?
Thinking of this, the pirates staying at the harbor suddenly gasped, and imdiately cursed! $hit, thats a dangerous group!
Whats the matter with this little island recently? First, the king hired a lot of pirates to slaughter his citizens, and now suddenly there is a great pirate group that can resist an attack of two marine admirals!?
If I rember correctly, the captain of the Dragon Hunter Pirate Group is a young man with a 650-million bounty!
They they seem to be docking at this port!? A pirate who ca back to his senses suddenly said.
That being said, the pirates in the port were all shocked. Looking around, they found that the small port had been filled with pirate ships There was no place where they could dock. In fact, they did this with the intention of blocking all the exits and preventing the people on the island from escaping.
However, such a blockade, at this mont, made all the pirates panic!
Quickly, untie the cables on the shore! On a pirate ship right in the middle of the port, soone yelled, and the ships behind roared in a panic: Our ship must get out first, we need to open so space!
After seconds of these shouts, the pirates on the front ship imdiately jumped out of the sea and swam towards the shore. They hurriedly began to untie the ropes. Not only them, but even several ships nearby did the sa!
Although these pirates were rude and fierce, at sea, there were rules that they secretly abide by. Usually, if there is a conflict between the pirate groups, then when the captain with the higher bounty stands in front of the one with the lower reward and brings this matter up, the latter will basically lose in terms of imposing manner.
This is the bounty classification between factions and pirates!
Obviously, the fa and might of the Dragon hunting Pirate Group preceded them. Therefore, in order to prevent angering this great Group, these pirates have to quickly give up their spots and make room for the arriving ship, giving them a place to dock.
From a distance, the mbers of the Dragon Hunter Pirate Group also saw the panic in the port. After a little guess, they knew what had happened, so for no reason, a strong sense of pride suddenly rose in the hearts of Ians crew.
Look at us, fear us, we are the Dragon Hunters, our Pirate Group will soon beco the crew of the new Shichibukai! Its our presence that these rude bastards fear!
Unconsciously, all the mbers of the Dragon Hunter Pirate Group pumped their chests and looked coldly at the pirates who were getting closer and closer.
Even Ian felt the fierce atmosphere bursting out of his crew. He sat on the deck chair, looked back at the expressions of everyone, and imdiately understood what was going on, so he couldnt help smiling.
Haha, is that so? In that case, its ti to show the world our aura
