"enough!"
The man slammed his hand on the table and stood up, turning to leave without hesitation. "I really am going to Wano Country to bring back my compatriots!"
The couple looked at each other in bewilderment.
Has Ian's request been fulfilled?
Later, outside Fishman Island.

Chapter 116 Violet's Resolve! Tiger's Determination!
2024-06-12
Life in the Beasts Pirates wasn't as terrible as I'd imagined.
That's what Violet thought.
Although Onigashima is full of shady pirates, to be honest, the pirates here are actually quite innocent.
If you are strong enough, they will respect you from the bottom of their hearts; but if you are weak, they will not hesitate to trample you into the mud.
Fortunately, as a Devil Fruit user, Violet is much stronger than ordinary low-level pirates, and her abilities are far beyond the capabilities of most low-level pirates.
So she actually did quite well on Ghost Island.
Not to mention that she was hanging out with Ian and the 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 is also considered to be one of these pillars.
Daily life on Ghost Island mainly involves exercising with everyone. At first, I couldn't keep up with everyone's pace at all, but I gradually got used to it.
Besides exercising, it's all about playing.
Violet is now very close to Black Maria, as well as Hancock's two sisters. They are all girls of similar age and often spend time together, so it's really hard to imagine them not becoming friends.
The girls get together to play almost every day. Sometimes they find Onigashima boring, so they go to the inland areas of Wano Country to play.
This kind of life is completely different from the pirate life that Violet originally imagined.
In her original imagination, after becoming a pirate, she would definitely drift on the sea, and then occasionally land on an island to kill and plunder to her heart's content, thus venting her malice.
She was terrified of that kind of life, but even more afraid that Ian would harm her family, so Violet accepted Ian's coercion and joined the Beasts Pirates.
However, having been a member of the Beasts Pirates for so long, I've never even heard of them personally going out to plunder, let alone doing so.
Once again, she asked curiously, and Black Maria smiled and told her, "Because you don't need to at all."
Black Maria then realized what kind of pirate crew she had joined.
The protection fees paid annually by the various islands under their control are already astronomical, not to mention that the Beasts Pirates' weapons have been sold all over the world, and a large amount of wealth is constantly flowing into Wano Country.
Even though Violet was still young, she knew that a pirate crew of this size seemed a bit too exaggerated.
It's not a pirate crew at all; it's more like a warlord's domain. You could even say it's a massive country ruled by pirates.
However, this also relieved Violet.
At least she no longer has to go against her conscience to commit arson, murder, and looting.
It's not bad to just drift through life like this.
That's what Violet thought.
That day, she saw in the newspaper that a new Shichibukai had been born, a guy named Donquixote Doflamingo.
"Don Quixote?"
Violet seemed to remember something and said with some surprise, "Isn't that the surname of the family that ruled Dressrosa eight hundred years ago?"
As a member of the royal family of Dressrosa at this time, Violet had some knowledge of this period of history.
"Oh, is it Doflamingo? He's Ian's friend. I went to the North Sea to discuss a collaboration with him."
Black Maria, who was leisurely applying nail polish at the time, exclaimed in surprise, "His goal has been achieved! Ian was the one who gave him the idea of becoming a Shichibukai, I think it was something like robbing the Celestial Tribe?"
"Gold from the heavens?"
As a princess of a member state of the World Government, Violet certainly knew what Celestial Gold was, so she was almost speechless with astonishment. "No way? Has he gone mad? That's undoubtedly going against the Celestial Dragons!"
Is Doflamingo insane, or is the world insane?
Not only did he survive robbing the Heavenly Gold, he also became a Shichibukai?
Upon hearing the word "Celestial Dragon," Hancock's two sisters immediately turned their heads. "Celestial Dragon?"
"Dragon people?"
Black Maria blinked her exaggeratedly large eyes. "Doflamingo himself is a Celestial Dragon."
"Eh!!"
Not to mention Violet, even Hancock's two sisters were dumbfounded.
"Oh, he's a former Celestial Dragon. It's said he used to be, but he's not anymore."
Black Maria added, then suddenly remembered something and looked at Violet with concern, "Violet, I just remembered something. It seems that Doflamingo is planning to make Dressrosa his new base."
"Eh?"
Violet was completely stunned.
Dressrosa?
She was so startled that she jumped up.
"No! I have to go find Ian!"
In her opinion, only Ian could solve this problem.
But of course, her first reaction was not wrong.
Violet found Ian fishing on the shore of Ghost Island.
At that moment, Ian was yelling, "Hey! You guys! Didn't I tell you not to put fish on my hook while I'm fishing?"
Below, in the seawater, several beautiful mermaid ladies just smiled and said, "Because Lord Ian can never catch anything."
They are fish-people who migrated to Wano Country and were settled on the seabed near Onigashima.
Here, nothing binds them anymore; both mermaids and fish-people can freely move between the surface and the seabed.
Ian's face turned red with anger, followed by a series of incomprehensible remarks such as, "A pirate's air force can't be considered an air force." and "It's just that the time isn't right yet."
The mermaid ladies burst into laughter, wishing they could hang themselves on a fishing hook and be caught by Ian.
Normally, Violet might have found it amusing.
Ian is usually very kind and can chat with anyone. He doesn't have any of the airs of being the second-in-command of the Beasts Pirates or the King of Wano Country.
Violet only recently learned that he was actually a king.
However, now is clearly not the time to think about these things.
"Ian!"
Violet almost screamed, "Maria said Doflamingo is going to attack Dressrosa?"
Ian paused for a moment, then waved impatiently at the mermaids below instead of replying immediately. "Go play by yourselves. Yamato will be here soon."
"Oh dear! Lord Ian always says such frightening things!"
Laughing and joking, the beautiful mermaids dove into the sea to play by themselves.
Among the immigrants on Fishman Island, there is a common saying that beautiful mermaid ladies must never get too close to Lord Ian, or they will attract divine punishment from the White-Haired Demon King.
Seeing the mermaid ladies leave, Ian breathed a sigh of relief and slowly lifted the large fish hanging on the hook. "Don't misunderstand, this fish was about to bite. It was just that they did something unnecessary."
"Anything about that is fine!"
Violet screamed in panic, "Ian, is Doflamingo going to attack Dressrosa?"
Ian simply nodded slightly. "That's right. Dover moved his headquarters from the North Sea to the New World. When choosing a new location, he thought of the country that the Don Quixote family once ruled."
"But I told him that it would be stupid to attack the government's member states directly, so we should wait until we become legal pirates recognized by the government before we start taking action."
"Now that he has become the new Shichibukai, he should be about to take action."
"..."
Violet's face turned pale instantly.
This guy knew all along!
"Ian! Stop him!"
Violet pinched her left hand's fingers with her right hand until they turned white.
Since Doflamingo is already a government-approved Shichibukai, the Navy will not help him.
and so.
"but,"
Ian replied, "Dover is my friend, and the Donquixote Family, which he commands, is also an important partner of our Beasts Pirates."
Violet's body trembled, and her face turned pale instantly.
Ian, won't you help me?
Violet felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
What should I do if Ian is unwilling to help? What should I do about Dressrosa?
But at this moment, Ian slowly cast the fishing hook out again.
“Dover is my friend, so Violet, you should at least tell me, in what capacity are you asking for my help?”
Violet was taken aback again.
What status?
