One Piece: Winged Dragon of the Beasts Pirates

After all, this means that the Beasts Pirates' strength has completely exceeded the limit.

The new world will never have any rivals again.

This is definitely not the scene the Five Elders wanted to see.

"How to do?"

"Should we just wipe out the Beasts Pirates?" asked Maz, who had a long beard.

"This is not an easy thing,"

Nasujuro, one of the Five Elders in a kimono, holding a sword, pushed up his glasses. "If we can't wipe out the Beasts Pirates in one fell swoop, they will sail up the sea and launch a crazy revenge against us when we have a hard time finding them."

This is actually what the Five Elders have always found very troublesome.

These pirates could easily abandon their base and wander the seas.

Although the government has a sophisticated intelligence system, it doesn't have a third eye. Finding a group of pirates who are deliberately trying to hide on the vast ocean is not easy at all.

Even the world government, with its vast resources, cannot endlessly dedicate its manpower and resources to the search.

"I mean,"

Vochuli said softly, "Could you try to sow discord between Ian and Kaido? Ian is getting stronger and stronger, and the forces under his command are also getting stronger. In the past, Kaido could entrust all the affairs of the Beast Pirates to him with peace of mind, but now, and even in the future?"

"Ian will undoubtedly become stronger. At that time, who will be the master of the Beasts Pirates?"

The other four elders all looked thoughtful.

Yes, since external attacks are ineffective, why not simply sabotage from within?

The Golden Dragon is actually a ship that is independent of the Beasts Pirates.

On the ship, Ian's direct forces were already far too powerful.

Does Kaido, such a cold-blooded man, not have any thoughts at all?

"You can give it a try!"

"Then let's decide on this! I think we can take a two-pronged approach: on one hand, guide public opinion from the outside, and on the other hand, send someone to infiltrate the Beasts Pirates and stir up conflict between the master and apprentice."

Ian was unaware that the World Government was preparing to intervene in the Beasts Pirates, though its methods were somewhat unexpected.

He had by then joined forces with the rumbling, moving land of the Germa Kingdom.

"Hahaha! Ian! Long time no see!"

Judge laughed heartily and immediately gave Ian a warm hug.

"It's been two and a half years, hasn't it?"

Ian smiled warmly as well.

No matter who it is, as long as they can help him research artificial Devil Fruits, he will respond with a warm smile without reservation.

It has indeed been two and a half years since I last saw him.

The last time we met was when we first met.

The completed battle suits were all sent to Wano Country by Ian through Umit, commissioned by Judge.

The timing of this research was quite subtle.

Judge, you're showing your true colors now, aren't you?

"Yes, it's been almost three years already."

Judge released Ian, looking somewhat wistful, before immediately perking up again, "But these two and a half years haven't been wasted!"

"Come on, Ian, come and see the results of my research!"

Looking at the bright smile on his face, Ian couldn't help but laugh as well, saying, "So, it must be a very amazing creation, right?"

"Hahaha! You'll see when you get there!"

Later.

Judge led the group to a large shed located deep within the kingdom.

The rather spacious greenhouse contained only five plants.

It's like a miniature banana tree, lush and verdant.

Each plant has a fruit hanging on it.

They are slightly larger than an adult's fist and come in various shapes, but what they all have in common is that their surface has spiral patterns.

"Is this what artificial Devil Fruits are?"

Having just eaten the Surgery Fruit, Luo curiously walked up to the plants and examined them carefully.

"probably?"

Judge stroked his upturned beard.

"should?"

Jack immediately looked at Judge, even more anxious than Ian, "What do you mean?"

"Every fruit here contains my specially made animal bloodline factors."

"After you eat it, the bloodline factors it contains will merge with the user, giving him the power of an animal," said Gaji.

"So I think it should be similar to the concept of artificial Devil Fruits, right?"

Jack finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Drake couldn't help but exclaim, "Amazing!"

That's a Devil Fruit, you know.

The most magical power in the world.

"Can we try it out?"

Ian asked impatiently.

"There is already one participant."

As he spoke, Judge clapped his hands.

Soon, the door to the greenhouse was opened, and a man walked in.

"Oh?"

Ian's lips curled into a smile. "How interesting."

"What a strange guy."

Yamato walked over curiously, circling the guy and looking him over. "He seems a bit different from us."

It is indeed very strange.

He was just a man.

But he is no longer entirely a man.

His skin was bluish, he had a pair of horns on his head, a cow's nose, cow hooves, and a tail behind his rear end.

It resembles a beastman, but also looks more like a human with certain bull-like features.

"He doesn't have the ability to transform."

Judge said, "The bloodline is completely fused the moment the fruit is eaten, and it will remain in this form forever, unable to turn back into a human."

"Eh?"

Yamato was immediately disappointed. "How ugly!"

"What about the increase?"

Ian, however, didn't care at all.

It's more accurate to say that it's already far superior to Caesar's SMILE fruit.

The appearances of the Gifters in the original work were truly bizarre.

"Much weaker than a true Zoan-type Devil Fruit,"

Judge scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, "But the increase in strength, stamina, and endurance is still obvious."

"Will the sea also hate those who eat this fruit?"

Black Maria had a sudden inspiration.

Judge's expression instantly turned serious. He said earnestly, "You've asked a very crucial question! These fruits are very different from true Zoan-type Devil Fruits, but my answer is, yes!"

"Even though he's a fake ability user, he acts like a real one. He'll lose his strength when submerged in the sea and will be suppressed by Seastone just like everyone else."

"When you touch the seastone, these changes that should have been irreversible will temporarily disappear."

Ian raised an eyebrow.

This is interesting.

"You know what this means, right, Ian?"

Judge was extremely excited. "The technology of bloodline factors is almost like it's been cursed! This is so intriguing!"

"Don't get excited."

Ian was a pragmatist and had no interest in these absurd conjectures. He simply said, "Judge, I have another question."

"What is it?"

Gaji asked.

"Do the lineage factors of different animals affect the strength of the fruit?" Ian asked.

"Of course."

As Garito naturally stated, "True Zoan-type Devil Fruits are distinguished by their common type, ancient type, and mythical type. Even among the common types, carnivorous animals are stronger than herbivorous animals."

"The stronger the animal, the more powerful the fruit it produces using its bloodline factors will be."

He suddenly remembered something and exclaimed in surprise, "Ian, you mean the Beast Pirates' Beast Legion?"

Ian laughed and said, "Do you think it has potential?"
