Chapter 96 Drake’s Day! Departure for Dressrosa
Drake opened his eyes.
The room was still dark.
It was still early.
His room was located on the middle floor of the main building of Onigashima, a little lower than Ian and the others, but it was also a floor where only cadres were qualified to live.
To be honest, Drake still had a sense of unreality until now.
He actually joined the Beasts Pirates, and even now lives on Onigashima as a reserve cadre of the Beasts Pirates.
I once wanted to be a navy, but now I am really with pirates.
However, there was no regret in my heart.
More, it should be anger, right?
The world government is so unbearable, and the navy attached to the world government is helping the evil, so let me destroy everything! Drake felt that what was beating in his chest was not a bright red heart, but a burning fire.
This flame was so hot that Drake didn’t want to waste a moment.
Get up, dress, fold the quilt, wash.
All this work was completed within three minutes, and then Drake opened the door of the room.
Coincidentally, the door opposite was also opened.
Trafalgar Law.
It was the name of the boy who walked out of the door opposite.
Drake nodded gently at him.
Luo also nodded in response.
Neither of them spoke, but went downstairs tacitly.
After walking out of the main building, there was a wide square outside. At this time, only the dim lights on the edge illuminated the square, which seemed magnificent in the daytime, but it was inevitably a little gloomy at this time.
But Drake didn’t care about these.
He just moved his body, moved his joints, stretched his ligaments and muscles, and prepared for the next exercise.
After the warm-up exercise, Drake started running and ran around the entire square.
Like him, Luo followed behind Drake. The two teenagers who looked a few years apart in age began to run silently in this dimly lit square.
About half an hour later.
”It’s still so early today?”
A voice with a smile came.
Drake turned his head.
The person who brought him to the Beasts Pirates, Ian, came out of the main building.
Behind him was the energetic Yamato.
The two of them are really inseparable.
Drake sighed in his heart.
Have you ever considered getting married early?
I am curious about how terrible the children born by these two monsters will be.
Then he greeted Ian, “Good morning, Lord Ian.”
”Keep working hard,”
Ian did not disturb them, but just said, “In this world, only strength will never let you down.”
Drake deeply agreed.
If you want to overthrow the world government, strong strength is absolutely indispensable.
So, he was unwilling to stop for a moment.
When I first came to Ghost Island a few days ago, I wanted to get up and exercise in the morning, but I found that Ian and others had already started exercising.
Drake was shocked.
People who are more talented and stronger than him work harder than him! No wonder Ian is so powerful! In addition to being able to bewitch people, this perseverance to become stronger is also extraordinary.
So, Drake felt that he could only work harder without such talent.
The next day, he got up at four o’clock in the morning, earlier than everyone else.
On the third day, Luo also got up early with him.
That child is very similar to himself now.
No, it should be that he has become very similar to Luo now.
Drake thinks so. He didn’t understand Luo in the past, but now he understands.
Thinking so, he speeds up.
Soon after Ian came, Jack, Black Maria, and Runti siblings all came.
Everyone is exercising in tacit understanding.
Drake was actually quite shocked.
The strength of the Beast Pirates is really not without reason.
Runti siblings are about the same age as Sanji, but the amount of exercise is even greater than him.
This gave him a sense of urgency.
He is younger thanEveryone here is much older, but their strength is indeed at the bottom.
He can never accept this fact.
So, Drake works harder than anyone else.
Carrying a heavy burden, he works hard to sharpen his body.
This hard work lasted for about two hours.
”Brother Ian! It’s time to eat!”
Sanji came over excitedly pushing a huge cart.
Drake knew that this kid actually got up very early, but he didn’t spend his time exercising, but went to the kitchen to make breakfast with the chefs.
He was the chef on the Golden Dragon appointed by Ian, and his cooking skills couldn’t be left behind.
”Let’s eat first.”
Ian clapped his hands and asked everyone to stop.
Drake also put down the heavy barbell in his hand and walked over panting to prepare breakfast.
Although it was breakfast, it was unusually rich because it was prepared for everyone who was exhausted from the exercise.
The staple food included bread, rice, noodles and several other kinds.
Barbecue, grilled fish, salad, cake, sausage, elbow and other dishes were also indispensable.
Drake was not picky about food. In the past few years, he had no preferential treatment on his bastard father’s ship. As long as he could fill his stomach, everything was fine.
So, his principle was to eat whatever was in front of him.
He stuffed food into his stomach like a starving ghost, as if his throat was an abyss and food could be thrown directly into it.
Work hard, eat hard, sleep hard, and become stronger hard.
This is the way of practice that Drake set for himself.
However, it must be admitted that Sanji’s cooking skills are quite good and the breakfast tastes good.
After breakfast, Drake’s exercise continued.
But Ian didn’t continue to exercise at this time.
Morning is his study time.
Drake was actually very surprised. Ian was not only very strong, but also very knowledgeable. It was said that he had insisted on using the morning time every day to study and read since he was very young.
This is really a rare thing in Qinghai, where the average illiterate person is illiterate, especially since he is a pirate. You know, Yamato usually spends the morning time playing.
Ian is really amazing.
To be honest, Drake is ashamed of himself.
This person is younger than him, but stronger, more handsome, richer, more powerful, and even more knowledgeable than him. He is simply crushed in all aspects.
But Drake felt that he had no time to learn knowledge. He had to focus all his energy on becoming stronger since he was already backward.
The training team lost two people, but there was one more person.
Sanji joined in.
”I have to become stronger too!”
Six-year-old Sanji said, “I can’t let Brother Ian down!”
Drake knew that this kid was very grateful to Ian for bringing him here. He liked the life on Ghost Island very much. Here, he could do everything he wanted.
The whole morning was spent in crazy exercise.
Lunch was prepared by the chef in the main building.
To be honest, it was much better than what Sanji made, but Sanji was not frustrated about it. Instead, he was very happy to taste the food of a better chef.
After another big meal, he rested a little and ushered in the highlight in the afternoon.
“Listen up, you guys,”
The overly tall Jack was teaching them, “Six Styles, is a superhuman physical skill, a move that only people with extraordinary physical fitness can master!”
”It’s too early for you to learn it now, but you can already practice it first!”
Six Styles.
Drake had seen Yamato and Ian perform it before.
It is said to be a secret skill from the World Government.
Drake was very interested.
He even had an ambition.
Luo and the others were still young and their bodies were not yet fully developed. It was difficult for them to learn this move, even for the ancient Runti siblings.
But he was different.
He was almost eighteen years old.
Although he had always been thin and small, he might not be stronger than Luo.
But Drake found that since leaving his father’s ship, he had entered a period of rapid development.
Especially after arriving at Ghost Island, his height was increasing by centimeters, and his muscles were also growing gradually.
He thought that his body, which had been suppressed for several years, had finally reached its peak! SinceIn this way, he has the possibility to learn the six styles! As long as he continues to work hard during this outbreak period and pushes his body beyond its limit.
”You are the ones chosen by Brother Ian, so you must not let him down!”
Jack finally said, “Otherwise, I won’t let you down even if he does nothing!”
You admire Ian too much! Drake couldn’t help thinking so.
In fact, it’s not just Jack, the Runti siblings also admire Ian, and even Sanji has gradually shown this trend. Yamato, needless to say, two out of three sentences are about Ian, not to mention the pirates on Ghost Island who admire Ian.
Is this guy Ian a succubus from somewhere?
Halfway through the exercise, Ian and Quinn suddenly came to the square excitedly, and they also brought a huge iron bird with a wingspan of several meters.
Quinn is a senior cadre of the Beasts Pirates. Other pirates say that his status is only below Kaido, Jin and Ian. At the same time, he is also the chief scientist of the pirates.
Is this a test weapon?
Drake couldn’t help but be distracted.
Then he saw that Ian personally sat in the iron bird, and the propeller in front of the iron bird suddenly began to turn, driving the iron bird forward.
Then.
”It’s flying?”
Law’s exclamation came from his ear.
Drake couldn’t help but open his eyes wide.
A flying weapon? Even he knew the strategic value of such a thing.
However, the flight of the iron bird did not last long. It soon became crooked and unbalanced, and then fell from the sky.
Ian climbed out of the wreckage unscathed, but there was no trace of disappointment on his face. Instead, he boasted happily,
”Uncle Quinn is amazing! You have achieved this level in just a few days! You are worthy of being the chief scientist of the Beasts Pirates!”
Then Drake saw that Quinn was beaming with joy, “Who do you think I am!”
”Very good, then let’s continue to improve it. The most important requirement is to improve stability and flight height. There are too many strong people in this world. If you don’t fly high enough, you will be easily shot down.”
Ian said in a good voice.
But Quinn’s face changed instantly, “Are you teaching me how to do things?”
But Ian said, “My, Uncle Quinn, you must have thought of it a long time ago.”
Quinn was arrogant, “Isn’t this nonsense? I am Quinn, a genius weapon expert!”
Drake just wanted to say, this guy is so easy to fool, he was completely fooled by Ian.
After a small episode, the study continued, and the afternoon was spent in study.
After dinner, the exercise did not stop. Drake exercised until almost ten o’clock before going to the big bathhouse on Ghost Island to take a comfortable bath.
This was the most enjoyable moment of his day. The warm water reminded him of his mother’s embrace. He almost forgot what it felt like to be hugged by his mother.
But today, there was an unexpected situation.
”Pop!”
The sound of splashing water. Drake, who was leaning on the edge of the pool, opened his eyes. The water splashed on his face. He looked down and saw a low stool floating on the water.
”It’s okay for Runti and his brother and sister,”
An extremely unhappy voice came from behind, “But are you guys, a bunch of trash, qualified to be cadres?”
Drake paused.
Ian had already told him that the internal ecology of the Beasts Pirates was a little bit of the law of the jungle.
This is not just a little bit, right?
He turned around and saw several pirates with bath towels around their waists looking at him covetously outside the pool.
Drake paused.
Then he stood up and walked out of the pool with the sound of splashing water.
Nothing to cover.
He felt that there was no part of his body that had to be hidden.
The pirates surrounded Drake in an instant, and the leader pointed at his nose and yelled, “Don’t think you can be so arrogant just because you were brought back by Lord Ian! The Beasts Pirates are all about the strong! Don’t think you can stand above us just because you rely on Lord Ian!”
So——
Drake clenched his fists.
Swoosh! There was a breeze.
A black shadow flashed.
The boy who was still wearing a spotted hat in the bathhouse flew up and hit a pirate with a flying knee.On the face, the guy’s cheek was dented.
”What are you still standing there for?”
Law shouted.
Drake did not hesitate and rushed directly towards the pirate in front of him.
He was not good at fighting, but he knew how to fight desperately.
He punched a pirate in the face with all his strength, knocking him out.
”Kill them!”
Drake shouted.
He felt the fire in his chest, flowing up along the trachea, and was about to burst out from his nostrils, mouth, and eyes! At this moment, he only felt unprecedented joy! Is violence such a happy thing?
The two of them instantly fought with a group of pirates.
Then.
”I’ll help too!!”
A slightly childish voice sounded, and Drake turned around and saw Sanji running over.
“Don’t come over here! Sanji! You’re too young!”
Drake certainly didn’t want a six-year-old child to get involved in a fight.
However.
”I have this!”
Sanji pressed the black jar his old father gave him on his belly button.
”Oh!!”
Even in the fight, Drake’s eyes lit up instantly.
”So cool!”
Law exclaimed seriously.
Sanji had already put on a black combat uniform and rushed over, shouting, “Don’t try to hurt my friends!”
Friends? Drake was slightly stunned.
In his seventeen years of life, this concept basically did not exist.
Friends? Later.
”We were wrong!”
Drake, with a bruised face, felt a little strange when he looked at the pirates who bowed respectfully in front of them to apologize.
“As expected of the person chosen by Lord Ian! That Lord really didn’t make a mistake!”
The pirate who was just yelling and yelling to cause trouble to them now has a respectful look on his face.
Is this the way of survival for the Beasts Pirates? No.
This is the way of survival in this world.
But, you are the one who made us beat you up, why are you all talking about Ian? Do you worship him so much? ”Get lost.”
Drake said coldly.
”Yes!”
Several pirates ran out in a hurry, because the floor of the bathhouse was slippery, two of them slipped on the ground, and then knocked everyone down like a bowling ball.
”Puff!”
Drake heard laughter.
Turning his head, he saw Luo covering his mouth, trying to restore his poker face.
“Law, you can laugh!”
Although he was not injured in the combat uniform, Sanji, who was sitting on the ground, was exhausted. He looked up and was surprised.
”I won’t laugh.”
Law said with a straight face, “My heart has long been dead. What’s left is only the flame that will burn this world to ashes! I am the destroyer of the world!”
Drake paused.
Then he looked down at Sanji.
The two people, who were eleven or twelve years apart in age, met each other’s eyes.
Then.
”Hahahahaha!”
The two laughed at the same time.
Drake couldn’t help but say, “Law, don’t you feel ashamed to say such things?”
Law pursed his lips.
Bear it.
Bear it hard.
Bear it hard again.
But, how can such a shameful thing be endured?
“You two are not allowed to laugh!!”
Luo yelled.
So, he laughed even louder.
However, Luo has become a lot more cheerful.
Drake was thinking as he laughed.
Is it because Ian said he would definitely cure him?
Let’s not talk about whether he can be cured or not. After such a long time of contact, Drake confirmed that Ian was at least very good to his own people. He was indeed a trustworthy man.
Although it was a bit strange to say this to a boy who was nearly five years younger than him.
But that’s the truth.
Because, even he himself has been changed.
Ian of Fentian is really an amazing person.
The next day, after a fulfilling breakfast.
When Drake was about to continue his exercise.
”Luo, let’s go.”
He suddenly heard Ian’s voice.
Go? Where to?
Drake was just wondering.
Ian said again, “It’s time to treat your illness.”
Drake was stunned and immediately looked at Luo. The child was completely stunned.
So, soon, Drake watched Ian and others leave by boat at the dock.
No, Ian is really nice, isn’t he?
It’s been less than two weeks since we returned to Onigashima, and we have to sail again for Luo’s illness?
The Golden Dragon once again sailed out of the harbor and left Wano Country.
Only this time, in addition to the routine Ian and Jack Black Maria, there was also Luo on the ship.
Of course, this voyage was not just for Luo’s treatment.
Or rather, this was secondary, and the main task was to go to Fishman Island.
Vegapunk said that the world will sink into the deep sea one day. Although we don’t know when this day will come and in what form it will come, it shouldn’t be a bad thing to find some fishmen who can move freely in the water first.
Luo stood on the deck, feeling the sea breeze. He looked a little nervous. He couldn’t help but turn his head and look at Ian, who was sitting on the side of the boat and fishing with a fishing rod.
”Ian, can my disease really be cured?”
He has a great talent for medicine, after all, his father is a doctor.
He read a lot of medical books and confirmed that his disease was incurable.
Even if Ian said he would cure him, he couldn’t believe it.
”That Judge can’t do anything about my disease.”
”This world is big, Luo,”
Ian just said leisurely, “Things that medicine and science can’t solve, leave it to the devil fruit.”
”Devil fruit?”
Luo looked at Ian in a daze.
“Operation Fruit, this fruit can definitely heal you.”
Ian said, “But I don’t know where it is now.”
According to the timeline of the original work, the appearance of the Operation Fruit will take at least two years.
Law’s eyes dimmed immediately.
You don’t know what you are talking about!
”So, we are going to find the second devil fruit, or the devil fruit ability user.”
”Ability user?”
Law asked subconsciously, “What ability?”
”Healing fruit ability user.”
Ian said, “The healing fruit she holds can heal all injuries in the world.”
”Heal all injuries?”
Law was shocked, “How is it possible? Isn’t that a panacea?”
Don’t believe it? Who do you think healed your broken hand in the original work? But to be honest, Ian is not very sure.
Does the injury that heals the injury only include the injury? Does it include the disease?
And it is a disease caused by a virus that has accumulated for generations like Law? Well, even if the healing fruit cannot cure it directly, didn’t Nagaji say that as long as all of Law’s bones are scraped, he can be cured.
The healing fruit can come in handy at this time, ensuring that Law will not die during the process of scraping his bones.
Ian said, “This is the devil fruit, kid.”
However, even if the healing fruit is useless, Ian is not too worried.
As he said, there are too many things in the world that can cure Law.
Not to mention the surgery fruit, can the swallow-swallow fruit separate the toxins in Law’s body? Can the meat ball fruit also be tried? Even if these devil fruits are ineffective, there is still something called pure gold that can extend Law’s life indefinitely.
So, what are you panicking about? “Really?”
Law sniffed carefully, his eyes full of anticipation.
He was only eleven years old, and of course he didn’t want to die anyway.
Especially, he hadn’t taken revenge yet!
The World Government, the Navy, and the countries that destroyed Frevans and killed his relatives, don’t even think about escaping! ”So Ian!”
Sitting next to Ian, Yamato, who was quite restless even when fishing, nudged Ian with his shoulder, “Where are we going next?”
”Dressrosa!”
The country of love and passion, Dressrosa.
This nickname makes people think about it.
It’s six thousand words for no reason…
