One Piece Super Card System

After hearing Ian's answer, Whitebeard snorted with some disdain and said, "It's the Shichibukai again. Why are you brats so keen on this position?"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Ian was a little confused by what Whitebeard said.

"It's nothing, it's just that your words remind me of another boy who was a Shichibukai!" Whitebeard raised his head and took a sip of wine.

Ian thought about it for a moment, and immediately realized, what Whitebeard was talking about couldn't be Crocodile the Sand Crocodile, right?

According to Ian's memory, Crocodile seems to have some grudge against Whitebeard. Crocodile once tried to attack Whitebeard during the war, and seemed to have always wanted to take off Whitebeard's head.

What is the relationship between the two, Ian has no way of knowing now, but after spending so many days with the Whitebeard Pirates, Ian knows that the position of captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates has always been vacant. Yes, now Whitebeard himself suddenly said this, and Ian couldn't help but think about it.

Could it be that the vacant captain of the second division originally belonged to Crocodile! ?

This suspicion has not actually been confirmed. Ian once asked people from the Whitebeard Pirates, but found that many people did not know about it. The position of captain of the second team seemed to have been vacant for a long time.

Shaking his head, he put down these thoughts for the time being. He knew that now was not the time to care about these things.

Although at the beginning, it was Uncle Xiong who suggested that Ian join the Shichibukai. At that time, Ian joined the revolutionary army under his guidance. Therefore, Ian did not think anything of Uncle Xiong's opinion at that time. Uncle Xiong may have wanted to become a Shichibukai to help him. However, as he continued to travel around the new world and mediate with the navy, Ian gradually discovered that the position of the Shichibukai might actually be useful to him. Very useful.

Joining the Shichibukai means that he will no longer be hunted by the navy in the future, and he will also have corresponding privileges, so Ian will be able to have a longer period of time to improve himself.

It has been a year since he went to sea. Although Ian's strength has increased a lot, in general, he has gradually found that his growth rate has begun to slow down.

The card system originally evolved from the game, so it cannot avoid the common problem of the game, that is, it improves quickly in the early stage and slowly in the later stage. Ian's current strength is roughly the same as that of Marco and the Whitebeard Pirates. This is the so-called You can fight with the admiral a few times, but you may not necessarily be able to defeat the admiral. Having such strength in one year is actually pretty good, but as the proficiency required in various basic skills becomes more and more After reaching a high level and even needing to rely on his own comprehension to advance, Ian's strength growth will naturally slow down.

So he felt that it was time for a buffer period to allow himself to settle down.

Not only him, the strength of the Dragon Hunter Pirates also needs to be improved. More and more powerful people need to join. Under such circumstances, if they are continued to be hunted down by the navy, it will definitely not work. Point out Maybe one careless move could lead to the destruction of the pirate group...

After thinking about it, Ian felt that becoming a Shichibukai was a good decision.

Of course, this is not the only way. For example, Ian can also join the Whitebeard Pirates and accept Whitebeard's protection, or if he can find the Red-haired Pirates, it is also a good choice.

However, compared to joining the Yonko, the Shichibukai has more freedom. Among other things, Ian needs a large amount of money to top up in exchange for diamonds to improve his strength. If he is the leader, he can use the money freely, but under the Yonko, I have to hand over the money I got, right? And even if the Shichibukai nominally have to obey the navy's orders, in fact, as long as Ian is unwilling to pay attention to them, there is nothing they can do.

"Since you want to join the Shichibukai, I won't stop you! However, in my opinion, it is difficult for the Navy to agree!" Whitebeard said to Ian: "After all, you and Ace are brothers, so We also have an indirect relationship with the Whitebeard Pirates, so it’s impossible for the Navy to let someone involved with the Four Emperors become a member of the Shichibukai!"

When Ian heard this, he couldn't help but frown. What Whitebeard said seemed to make sense!

"No matter what, the news has been conveyed to the CP0 people!" Ian finally said: "Even if the navy disagrees, it doesn't matter. At worst, my pirate group and I will continue to explore the new world."

"Gula la la la!" Whitebeard laughed, and then couldn't help but ask: "What exactly does the World Government want you to hand over? To be honest, I was very surprised before. You offered such a high reward amount. The navy actually expects to capture you alive!"

Ian didn't bully him and said, "That's a Tianlong identity chip, maybe it's very important to them!"

"Oh!?" Whitebeard raised his eyebrows: "Can you take it out and take a look?"

"No

On my body! "Ian shook his head and said, thinking that he didn't know how the revolutionary army was cracking it, and he didn't know when he would be able to return it.

"Forget it!" Whitebeard snorted: "In a few days, the Whitebeard Pirates will evacuate. Although this is the country of my old friends, it is not good to stay here all the time. Many pirates are I don’t dare to come to this island anymore. Salamis needs tourists to support it. My pirate group has done what it can, but you guys can stay here for a while longer.”

"Yeah! Dad, I know!" Ian nodded. He heard what Whitebeard meant. He meant that the Dragon Hunter Pirates can continue to stay in Sara before receiving a reply from the navy. Meath Island, after all, is the island where the Whitebeard Pirates are sheltered. I believe that the navy will not dare to come again.

It can be said that Ian and his pirate group have really inherited a lot of love from Whitebeard. Even if they have to leave, they will not forget to protect the Dragon Hunter pirate group again.

"Dad, how is your health?" Ian thought for a while and asked him: "I have some healing ability, maybe you can let me help you treat it!"

"Oh!?" Whitebeard was a little surprised. After looking at Ian, he said, "Okay, come find me after dinner!"

Whitebeard's current physical condition is actually pretty good, but he has also begun to equip a medical team. However, the so-called medical treatment is in conflict with his hobby of drinking. Whitebeard does not want to collapse, but he wants to It is even more impossible to ask him not to drink. Since Ian said that he has healing ability, let him try it. Then he may not have to suffer from alcohol withdrawal.

As Whitebeard left, everyone dispersed. Fujitora came to Ian and asked him: "Brother Ian, you are really bold. Not only did you want the position of the Shichibukai with the World Government, but you still did that. How much? 200 billion is not a small amount!"

Ian smiled and said: "Of course I know, this amount is just to give them room for bargaining. I estimate that the world government can agree to at most half of it, which is great!"

"Half of it is 100 billion Baileys!" Fujitora said: "If you use it for gambling, you can gamble for a long time!"

Ian laughed and said: "Uncle Fujitora, if you want to gamble, why don't you tell me? When we are no longer chased by the navy, I will take you to the Golden City for fun!"

"Oh!? Really!?" An excited smile suddenly appeared on Fujitora's face. He had actually heard about the Golden City a long time ago, but the world's largest gambling ship has always been floating on the sea. , whereabouts are uncertain, and most people may not be able to reach it if they don’t rely on luck.

The other members of the Dragon Hunter Pirates couldn't help but gather around after hearing this, looking at Ian with shining eyes.

Ace was also holding on to his cowboy hat and grinning: "Although I don't know how to gamble, if you want to play Ian, you must remember to call me!"

"Don't worry, there is not only a casino there, but also a lot of delicious food!" Ian couldn't help but replied with a smile.

After hearing what Ian said, Ace became even more interested. Just when he was about to ask something, a voice suddenly interrupted.

"Hey, brother Ian, can you take me with you? I also like gambling!"

Ian looked back and immediately frowned, because the speaker was none other than Blackbeard Marshall Teach!

He was grinning his toothless mouth, rubbing his hands and smiling at Ian. The jewelry rings on the ten fingers of both hands matched his appearance, which made this guy see Comes off as rude and nouveau riche.

During this period of time, Blackbeard, Ian had also met him many times. Since he had always been wary of Teach, Ian rarely talked to him even if he met him.

Since they had met him on Clockwork Island, and because Teach was still a man with a white beard, Ian could only temporarily adopt such a cold treatment method. Although Teach wanted to talk to Ian several times, Ian couldn't. An didn't even pay attention to him.

I didn't expect this guy to come again...

"Oh, let's talk about it again!" Ian said expressionlessly.

Ace looked at Ian a little strangely, and then at Tikki. He also remembered that Ian had told him to be careful about Tikki, so he couldn't help but observe Tikki carefully.

However, what Ace saw was a simple and honest smile on Teach's face.

After being answered by Ian in such a cold voice, if it were anyone else, he would probably have the sense to leave, but Tiqi did not. He chuckled and said: "Don't be like this, Ian! You haven't been talking to me much, right?" What misunderstanding did you have with me when we weren't on Clockwork Island? If it hadn't been for you and that beautiful pirate empress, I wouldn't have been able to run away, so I always wanted to thank you in person!"
