There were originally three thousand members of the Ian family. Now, including the slaves rescued from Mary Joa, the number was nearly ten thousand.

Of course, among these nearly ten thousand people, a lot of women and children have to be eliminated, but Ian knows very well that the remaining men will join the Dragon Hunter Pirates without hesitation as long as he raises his arms.

By then, the size of the Dragon Hunter Pirates will be at least 5,000, and the originally tight manpower problem will be greatly alleviated.

Moreover, the huge number of personnel is also one of the symbols of the Four Emperors. With such a large number of personnel, the Dragon Hunter Pirates have moved closer to the size of the Whitebeard Pirates. Although it is not as good as the original Big Pirates, it is An felt it was enough.

The more people under his command, the more people eat, which all require money, so there is no need for Ian to remind him that when Hawking and the others rescued the slaves, they also raided the Celestial Dragon manor and packed away all valuable things. , ready to be taken away when the time comes.

This wealth may only be a small part of the Tianlong people. The truly valuable things should be placed in the treasure house, but no one knows how to open it, and Ian has no intention of dethroning that god.

In a mighty manner, this team of nearly 10,000 people arrived at the downhill port of Marigioa leading to the New World. Almost all the ships moored here were occupied. The ships here were originally for caravans and envoys with passes. The replacements were all requisitioned by Ian and the others. A dozen large and small boats, carrying happy people, plunged into the sea currents going down the mountain.

Ian was naturally on the first ship. When the ship tilted and sailed rapidly downward in the current, Ian turned back and glanced at the red continent behind.

I still remember that when I passed here for the first time, I took a boat like this, but that time, the blue pheasant froze the entire sea current going down the mountain, and the speed of gliding on the ice was much faster than now. .

The ship swooped down with a roar. The ship was first pressed into the water of the sea, but it was quickly bounced up. After shaking a few times, it quickly stabilized. Under the control of the sailors, the leading ship moved out of the way, allowing Ships coming one after another entered the sea.

More than a dozen ships formed a large formation. Then, the members of the Ian family scattered on each ship held up a flag of the Dragon Hunter Pirates and climbed up to the top of the mast in twos and twos. , hung up the flag.

The pattern of a long sword piercing the skull and dragon's head was printed on the black flag, fluttering in the wind. All the people on the boat raised their heads and looked at the flag. At this moment, they all suddenly understood. I now understand what this flag represents.

呜噢

On all the ships, people roared in unison: "Dragon Hunter!"

The roar was mixed with the crisp voices of children, which sounded particularly clear.

"" Lieutenant General Garp was also on board Ian's flagship. He clasped his hands, listening to the roar, and watching the people's excited and angry expressions, there was silence for a while.

"What's wrong, old man?" Ian asked him.

Garp shook his head: "I have been a navy all my life and have captured countless pirates, but sometimes I am confused as to what kind of justice I protect."

Ian didn't say anything. He knew that Mr. Garp probably had a lot of feelings and needed to talk about it.

"Sengoku is my friend," Garp continued: "But as to why the Navy wants to protect the Tianlong people, I have never really understood him before. Look at these slaves. The Navy is catching pirates all over the world. , claims to be righteous, but he pretends to be deaf and dumb to the existence of these people. I have asked Warring States more than once why this is, but Warring States did not answer me. He asked anxiously and used his status as marshal to suppress me."

"Haha" Ian laughed sarcastically.

"However, after we retired and Akainu became the marshal, I understood what kind of efforts Sengoku had made during his tenure." Garp sighed: "He has been dealing with the World Government with his own prestige. To prevent the Navy from completely becoming a thug of the World Government, during his tenure, the Navy still maintained a detached attitude, but Akainu's bastard

After the boy came to power, this detachment disappeared."

"There is no way, after all, he came to power with the support of the Five Old Stars, right?" Ian took up the topic.

"Yes." Garp nodded: "I finally understand why the Sengoku wants Aokiji to take over his class. He doesn't want the navy to completely fall to the side of the World Government and become an accomplice of the Tianlong people. It's a pity that no one can Unexpectedly, Aokiji was defeated by the Five Old Stars and Akainu only fifteen days after he became the marshal."

"Marshal Warring States must have been very angry at that time," Ian asked.

Garp grinned and said, "My lungs are so angry that this is the first time I've seen him curse."

"Now that Akainu is dead, who do you think will become the new marshal?" Ian asked him.

As a result, Garp shook his head and said: "It's none of my business. Both Warring States and I have retired. After losing power, only this old face is left. But how much face is left in this old face? No one knows that the Navy has already It’s not something we can control.”

"Yes," Ian said with the same sentiment: "If you don't say anything else, just look at General Zefa and you will know that the World Government did not consider General Zefa's feelings at all when it asked Edward Weibull to join the Shichibukai."

If I had to use one word to describe the style of the World Government, Ian could only think of the four words "kill the donkey".

In fact, the older generation of the navy, like Capone, Sengoku or Vice Admiral Ahe, have dedicated their lives to the cause of the navy and have special feelings for the navy itself. Even if they are nominally retired, if If necessary, they will also use their remaining energy. This is the true heritage of the Navy. Just imagine, even if the Navy has only maintained the tradition of three generals, who dares to say that the Navy only has three generals? What a fool.

These older generation retired navymen, if you pull them out at random, they will all have general-level combat capabilities.

However, this older generation of retired marines are now extremely chilled by the World Government. Whether it is the matter of General Zefa or the angrily running away of Qingzhi, they have realized that the navy is no longer theirs. The navy in power

In the original history, this situation had already begun to appear, but the emergence of Ian undoubtedly intensified the process and caused this serious internal problem of the Navy to completely explode.

It was only when he was chatting with Garp that Ian finally understood why Garp used words instead of fists to dissuade him after he appeared.

"Forget it, old man, since you have retired, just enjoy your life." Ian comforted him: "That boy Ace is doing well in the Whitebeard Pirates, and Luffy has also entered the new world now. , they all have a group of good partners and are going on their own adventures. Isn’t this gratifying enough for you?"

However, Garp patted Ian on the shoulder and said: "Do you know what is the most gratifying thing for my old man?"

"What is it?" Ian asked with a smile.

"What I'm most gratified about is that I met you when we were in the East China Sea." Garp laughed and said, "And what I'm most proud of is that I suddenly had the idea to ask you to help me catch that boy Ace. If it hadn’t been for this encounter, I’m afraid everything would have been different.”

Ian smiled and scratched his head.

"We old guys can no longer keep up with the times. The world will continue to change without anyone else," Karp said, "So it's up to you young people from now on. Do whatever you want, don't take us into consideration." These old guys, you, Ace, and Luffy must live as they please."

Ian nodded and said nothing

The fleet faced the sea breeze, galloped on the vast sea, rode the wind and waves all the way, and returned home.

At the same time, the news that Akainu, the current marshal of the navy, was killed by the fourth emperor Black Dragon Ian was also reported by panicked journalists.

The impact of this incident is extremely huge, but the first impact was something that even Ian did not expect.

That was the death of Akainu, which made the guys from the League of Villains finally make up their minds and prepare to take action.
