One Piece: Starting with Creating the Strongest Character Design

Haiyan Island is named for its resemblance to a seagull.

The island is surrounded by numerous reefs, making it extremely difficult to approach.

And now, about four or five nautical miles from this island, in a place surrounded by towering rocks.

The two warships led by Vice Admiral Tsuru are currently docked there.

There are still three days until the time to trade the Ope Ope no Mi, which is also the time when Doflamingo appeared, as Sengoku had mentioned.

At this moment, a busy atmosphere enveloped the entire warship.

Some soldiers were observing Haiyan Island in the distance from the mast, while others were on standby at the rudder, ready to depart at any time.

Looking at the female soldiers on deck, each carrying out their tasks in an orderly manner, Lieutenant General Tsuru said:

"Everyone must not let their guard down; our opponent is Doflamingo."

"Understood!"

The female soldiers shouted in unison.

At that moment, a messenger rushed toward Lieutenant General He.

"Lieutenant General Tsuru, a message has arrived from the ship on Mignon Island."

"Mignon Island?"

Lieutenant General Tsuru frowned. What happened there?

The three islands of Haiyan Island, Beirut Island, and Mignon Island form a unique ecological cycle that keeps the area covered in snow year-round.

According to their investigation, Minion Island is the base of the pirate crew that obtained the Op-Op Fruit.

They also deployed two warships near the island to monitor the pirate crews there.

"A massive explosion has occurred at the pirate base on Minion Island!"

Vice Admiral Tsuru's eyes widened upon hearing this. She took the Den Den Mushi and asked into the other end, "You said that pirate crew's base is on fire?"

"Yes."

The Den Den Mushi replied, "I'm sending someone over to confirm."

"Fool! If you're discovered, this deal is off," Lieutenant General Tsuru scolded. "Patrol the coast immediately and report any suspicious persons."

The Den Den Mushi quickly replied, "Yes."

After hanging up the phone, Lieutenant General He sighed.

Although she also wanted to send the navy to take down the pirates in one fell swoop.

However, retrieving the fruits of the surgery was a task personally assigned by the World Government.

All their actions are predicated on reclaiming the fruits of their surgery.

The World Government has reached a deal with that group of pirates.

In fact, if the pirates were in mortal danger, these marines would protect them.

It's both laughable and pathetic.

"Lieutenant General Tsuru..."

A figure sped towards Haiyan Island from afar, as if it were wandering in the air.

Kitahara Tsune's white figure slowly landed in front of Lieutenant General Tsuru and said:

"There is no sign of anyone landing on Haiyan Island."

"Doflamingo didn't even show up. I don't know where Sengoku got the information to make such a deployment."

Lieutenant General Tsuru frowned, pondering his next move.

"Lieutenant General Tsuru, I plan to go to Mignon Island to see what exactly happened there."

Kitahara Tsune gave a military salute and said.

Looking at the spirited young man before him, Lieutenant General He sighed with emotion.

"Go and investigate what happened, but don't get caught."

Kitahara Tsune didn't speak, he just nodded, then lightly stepped forward, walking on air towards Minion Island.

Not far from Haiyan Island.

A pink ship, decorated with a flamingo wearing red glasses on its bow, floated slowly on the sea, watching the rock pillar where the navy was located in the distance.

.........

Mignon Island

This island was recently occupied by the Dias Barles Pirates as a temporary base before the Navy's transaction.

However, at this moment, the stronghold was in complete disarray.

Various building wrecks and explosion debris are scattered everywhere.

Most of the pirate crew members lay scattered among the ruins, injured by who knows who.

Meanwhile, along the coastline, squadrons of naval personnel were patrolling the shore, searching for suspicious individuals.

Kitahara Tsune took a few light steps and landed on the coastline.

Feeling the low temperature brought by the falling snow, Kitahara Tsuneo tightened his white suit, and after a moment, he put on his navy cloak.

After getting a good feel for the direction, Kitahara Tsuneo headed towards the center of the island.

However, after walking for only two minutes, Kitahara Tsune felt an unfamiliar aura.

That was a premonition given to him by his Observation Haki.

In the past two months, in addition to training his Armament Haki, his Observation Haki has also improved to some extent thanks to the bonuses from attributes such as [Haki Mastery].

While it's not yet possible to predict the future or hear the thoughts of others, or possess a vast mental network similar to Enel's, it can still achieve the level of being able to perceive the surrounding situation at any time.

There was a child and two adults.

Child?

Is it Luo?

Kitahara Tsune immediately became interested.

At this point in time, Corazon should have already given the Op-Op Fruit to Law.

Did Luo come here seeking help?

Kitahara Tsune quickened his pace, heading towards the life force.

"Help! Help!"

However, contrary to Kitahara Tsune's expectations, the child was not Luo, and could not even be considered a teenager, but a young man.

Two pirates were chasing after him.

"Dolly, stop! As the captain's son, where do you think you're going?"

The two pirates brandished their weapons and threatened the young man menacingly.

"That guy isn't my dad. Ever since he became a pirate, he's been beating me every day. I can't take it anymore."

The young man shouted back as he ran.

He had orange hair and a prominent cross-shaped scar on the corner of his mouth.

He would never forget that his once gentle and considerate father had been beating him day and night ever since he became a pirate.

He didn't understand why the other person had gone from being a navy officer to a pirate, but he couldn't take it anymore. Taking advantage of the attack today, he was determined to escape this hellish place.

Thinking of this, he ran faster and faster.

Dolly ran with his head down, and the two pirates behind him couldn't catch up with a young man who was much smaller than them.

"Bang!"

Dolly felt as if he had bumped into a stone wall, and a big bump instantly appeared on his head.

He looked up blankly and saw only a figure in a white suit and a navy cloak draped over the person's shoulders, which was now fluttering in the cold wind.

Dolly was bewildered for a moment before uttering a single word.

"Help me..."

Kitahara Tsune narrowed his eyes as he looked at Dori, who was less than half his height, and shielded him behind him.

The two pirates were stunned for a moment when faced with the sudden appearance of the navy.

Wasn't the deal supposed to happen in three days? How come there are already naval forces on the island?

Was the explosion just now caused by the Navy?

The two of them were stunned for a moment, until the howling wind made them stagger, before they came to their senses.

"You, you meddlesome bastard! That's our pirate captain's son! Hand him over right now!"

The two men looked at Kitahara Tsune and shouted, but Kitahara Tsune's tall figure made them feel a little afraid.

Dolly's heart skipped a beat when he heard what the two pirates said.

Yeah, he's the son of a pirate. Will the Marines accept him?
