Chapter 116 Violet’s Awakening! Tiger’s Determination!
Life in the Beasts Pirates is not as terrible as imagined.
That’s what Violet thinks.
Although Onigashima is full of some filthy pirates, to be honest, the pirates here are surprisingly simple.
As long as you are strong enough, they will respect you from the bottom of their hearts, but if you are weak, they will not hesitate to step on you into the quagmire.
Fortunately, as a capable person, Violet is much stronger than ordinary small fish pirates, and her abilities are definitely not something that ordinary low-level pirates can resist.
So she actually lived a good life on Onigashima.
Not to mention that she was still hanging out with Ian and others, and everyone on Onigashima knew that Ian and Yamato were the future successors of the Beasts Pirates, and he and the young people around him were the pillars that would lead the Beasts Pirates forward in the future.
Violet was also considered one of these pillars.
The daily routine on Onigashima was actually to exercise with everyone every day. At first, I couldn’t keep up with everyone’s progress, but gradually I got used to it.
Besides exercise, there were all kinds of play.
Violet now had a good relationship with Black Maria, as well as Hancock’s two sisters. They were all girls of similar age, and they were often together, so it was really hard for them not to be friends.
The sisters almost got together to play every day, and sometimes they disliked Onigashima being boring, so they would go to the inland of Wano Country to play.
Such a life had nothing to do with the pirate life that Violet had originally imagined.
In her original imagination, after becoming a pirate, she would definitely drift on the sea, and then land on an island from time to time, killing and looting to vent her malice.
She was full of fear for that kind of life, but she was more afraid that Ian would attack her family, so Violet accepted Ian’s coercion and joined the Beasts Pirates.
However, after joining the Beasts Pirates for so long, let alone going out to loot in person, she had never even heard of it.
Once again, she asked curiously, and Black Maria smiled and told her, “Because it is not necessary at all.”
Black Maria then understood what kind of pirate group she had joined.
The annual protection fee paid by the islands under her command alone is already an astronomical figure, not to mention that the arms of the Beasts Pirates have been sold all over the world, and a large amount of wealth is constantly pouring into Wano Country.
Even though Violet was still young, she knew that a pirate group of this size seemed a bit exaggerated.
It was not a pirate group at all, it was completely the size of a warlord, and it could even be said that this was a huge country ruled by pirates.
But this also made Violet feel relieved.
At least she didn’t have to burn, kill, and plunder against her conscience.
It’s not bad to just muddle along like this.
That’s what Violet thought.
That day, she read in the newspaper that a new Shichibukai was born, a guy named Don Quixote Doflamingo.
”Don Quixote?”
Violet remembered something and was a little surprised, “Isn’t that the surname of the family that ruled Dressrosa eight hundred years ago?”
As the royal family of Dressrosa at this time, Violet still had some understanding of this period of history.
“Oh, is it Doflamingo? He is Ian’s friend. I went to the North Sea to discuss cooperation with him.”
Black Maria, who was slowly applying nail polish at the time, said in surprise, “His goal has been achieved. It was Ian who gave him the idea of becoming a Seven Warlords of the Sea. It seems that he was asked to rob Tenjo Gold or something?”
”Tenjo Gold?”
As a princess of a member country of the World Government, Violet certainly knew what Tenjo Gold was, so she was almost dumbfounded, “No way? Is he crazy? There is no doubt that he is against the Celestial Dragons!”
Is Doflamingo crazy or is this world crazy?
Not only did he not die after robbing Tenjo Gold, but he also became a Seven Warlords of the Sea? Hancock’s two sisters turned their heads instantly when they heard the word Celestial Dragons, “Tenjo Gold?”
”Tenjo Gold?”
Black Maria blinked her literally bigExaggerated eyes, “Doflamingo himself is a Celestial Dragon.”
“Eh!!”
Not to mention Violet, Hancock’s two sisters were also stunned.
”Oh, it’s a former Celestial Dragon. It was said that he was before, but not now.”
Black Maria added, and then she remembered something, and suddenly looked at Violet worriedly, “Violet, I suddenly remembered something. Doflamingo seems to be planning to use Dressrosa as his new place of residence.”
”Eh?”
Violet was stunned.
Dressrosa? She jumped up in shock.
”No! I’m going to find Ian!”
In her opinion, Ian was the only one who could solve this problem.
But of course, her first reaction was not wrong.
Violet found Ian fishing on the coast of Onigashima.
At this time, Ian was shouting, “Hey! You guys! Didn’t I tell you not to hang fish on my hook when I’m fishing?”
Below, in the sea, several beautiful mermaids just smiled and said, “Because Lord Ian always catches nothing.”
They are the fish people who migrated to Wano Country, and now they are placed on the seabed near Onigashima.
Here there is no longer anything to restrain them, both mermaids and fish people can freely travel between the sea surface and the seabed.
Ian’s face turned red with anger, and then he said a series of incomprehensible words such as “The air force of pirates cannot be considered an air force.” “It’s just that the fate has not arrived yet.”
The mermaids laughed suddenly, wishing they could hang themselves on the fishhook for Ian to catch.
If it were normal times, Violet might still find it funny in her heart.
Ian is usually very kind and can chat with anyone. He doesn’t have the airs of the second-in-command of the Beasts Pirates and the king of Wano Country.
Violet only found out not long ago that he was actually a king.
But now is obviously not the time to think about these things.
”Ian!”
Violet almost screamed, “Maria said Doflamingo is going to attack Dressrosa?”
Ian paused, did not reply immediately, but waved his hand impatiently at the mermaids below, “Go play by yourself, Yamato will be here later.”
”Ah! Lord Ian always says scary things!”
Laughing, the beautiful mermaids dived into the sea and played by themselves.
There is a common sense among the immigrants of Fishman Island that the beautiful mermaids must not get too close to Lord Ian, otherwise the white-haired devil will bring down the punishment from the sky.
Ian heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the mermaids leave, and slowly lifted up the big fish hanging on the hook, “Don’t get me wrong, this fish is about to bite the hook, it’s purely unnecessary for them.”
”That kind of thing is fine!”
Violet screamed anxiously, “Ian, is Doflamingo going to attack Dressrosa?”
Ian just nodded slightly, “Yes, Dov moved the base from the North Sea to the New World. When choosing a new base, he thought of the country ruled by the Don Quixote family.”
”But I told him that it would be stupid to attack the government’s allies directly, so he should wait until he becomes a legal pirate recognized by the government before taking action.”
”Now that he has become the new Shichibukai, he should be ready to take action soon.”
”…”
Violet’s face turned pale instantly.
This guy really knew it a long time ago! “Ian! Stop him!”
Violet pinched her left fingers with her right hand until they turned white.
Since Doflamingo is already a government-recognized Shichibukai, the navy will not help.
So.
”But,”
Ian said, “Dover is my friend, and the Don Quixote family he leads is also an important partner of our Beast Pirates.”
Violet’s body trembled and her face turned pale.
Ian, don’t you want to help me?
Violet instantly felt like she had been struck by a bolt from the blue.
If Ian is unwilling to help, what should I do? What about Dressrosa? But at this time, Ian slowly threw the hook out again.
”Dover is my friend, so Violet, you should at least tell me, in what capacity do you ask for my help?”
Violet was stunned again.
What identity? What else could it be? Of course, the princess of Dressrosa, and—— Violet was stunned for a moment, and she suddenly remembered what Ian had said to Hancock before.
He said that he hoped Hancock would be a partner he could trust with everything.
”As your partner!”
Violet said firmly, “As a partner you can trust with everything!”
Ian’s mouth gradually rose.
”Since it is a request from a partner, there is really no way to refuse.”
Violet’s eyes lit up instantly.
Ian took out the Den Den Mushi.
Just as he had said to Luo before, when Dover started to act, Violet knew what she should do.
The call was dialed immediately.
Soon, the other side answered.
“Hey, hey, hey, Ian, do you have any advice?”
Doflamingo’s smiling voice came from the other side.
”Dover, there is something I forgot to say before.”
Ian said slowly, “Actually, I have a very important partner who is King Riku’s little daughter.”
There was a sudden silence on the Den Den Mushi side.
”So I say, how about being a little more restrained?”
Violet swallowed.
Even she knew that the Seven Warlords of the Sea were quite a big pirate.
After a long time, Doflamingo’s strange laughter came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi, “Hehe, this is really a pleasant surprise.”
”I’m sorry, Dover, but this is the situation now,”
Ian said lightly, “I think the way Crocodile and Alabasta get along is pretty good, you might want to refer to it.”
It would be troublesome for Doflamingo to have a base to develop his industry with peace of mind.
In fact, he only needs to quietly help the Beasts Pirates sell weapons.
”Good idea, hehe, hehe, it’s a good idea!”
Doflamingo’s laughter became more and more brilliant, “I know, let’s do it.”
”Contact me when you have time.”
The phone was hung up and the call ended.
Ian put away the Den Den Mushi.
Violet blinked, “That’s it, is it?”
”Dover is my good friend,”
Ian smiled gently, “so he shouldn’t refuse my request.”
You call that a request? Violet couldn’t help but raise a happy smile at the corner of her mouth.
If it was Ian, then there would definitely be no problem.
”Go and have fun.”
Ian turned around and continued fishing, speaking leisurely.
”Yeah.”
Violet turned and left.
This seems to be not bad, being a pirate.
If it wasn’t Ian this time, how would she protect Dressrosa?
Violet didn’t think that without Ian’s advice, Doflamingo wouldn’t have thought of becoming a Shichibukai.
Whether he became a Shichibukai or not, Doflamingo was coveting Dressrosa.
The girl was in a good mood when she left, humming a song as she walked.
But Ian pretended not to hear anything and just fished silently.
As for what Doflamingo would think, Ian didn’t care.
He was a smart man, or rather, too smart, so he couldn’t be on the stage.
Somewhere in the New World, a flamingo-like ship was sailing through the waves.
But at this time, the atmosphere in the cabin was so solemn that it seemed as if time had stopped.
All the people in the Don Quixote family were silent with stiff faces.
”咈咈咈咈!”
After a long time, the family’s ruler, Doflamingo, finally laughed out loud, “Ian, you are really my good friend!”
”Asshole! You are really going too far!”
Trebol, who looked like snot, was instantly furious, “What do you think of us! How dare you boss us around!”
”Dover, what should we do?”
Diamanti, who was wearing clown-like makeup, was a little anxious.
”Don’t worry about that guy!”
Pica’s voice was shrill, but her words were domineering, “Is the Beasts Pirates so great?”
Doflamingo looked back at this guy.
Then he said, “It’s not the time to turn against the Beasts Pirates yet, just be patient for a while.”
”Oh! Dover!”
Trebol said in surprise, “Do you have a plan already?”
Doflamingo did not answer, but just laughed strangely.
He laughed, and his men laughed too.
So, the cabin was immediately filled with laughter again.
Soon after, in Dressrosa, King Riku received a notice from the government.
”Donquixote Doflamingo is coming to Dressrosa to help the government guard the gateway to the New World as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?”
The king looked puzzled.
After a while, a ship approached the outer waters of Wano Country quickly.
”Is that Wano Country?”
The red-skinned fishman stood on the bow with his arms around his chest, revealing a determined look, “The enemy is the Beast Pirates! But our compatriots are trapped there! What should we do?”
”Of course, take action! ”
Behind him, the plump, blue-skinned fishman responded loudly, “Go and rescue them all!”
”Then big brother, what should we do?”
Another shark fishman with a pointed nose spoke loudly, “Just rush in?”
”Don’t talk nonsense, Arlong,”
The captain of the Sun Pirates, Fisher Tiger, said calmly, “The opponent is the Beast Pirates. We have no chance of winning against them head-on.”
The pointed-nosed fishman, Arlong, wanted to argue unconvinced.
No chance of winning?
It’s just a mere human.
Tiger looked up at the high mountain wall of Wano Country.
I always feel like I’m back to that time again.
Then, let’s copy the previous actions.
