Sailing: I Open Treasure Chests in the Pirate World

Ian wanted to complain, but he didn't know where to begin.

"Since you found the anthill hell..."

Ian looked at the blue-eyed white dragon beside him.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon then opened its mouth wide and spat out four new Devil Fruits.

They were all lizard fruits—

Chameleon Fruit, Dumb-tailed Poison Lizard Fruit, Komodo Dragon Fruit, Marine Iguana Fruit.

These four Devil Fruits have been in Ian's possession for some time now.

Unfortunately, he looked down on these Devil Fruits and didn't even consider using them to enhance the strength of his subordinates.

Animal type, common species, too weak.

It is a pity that it is tasteless.

This is Ian's opinion on the four "lizard fruits".

But since Nami wants it now, let's "reward" her with one.

Ian did not produce the Tyrannosaurus Rex Fruit.

This ancient variety is of fairly good quality.

Giving it to Nami to "play with" is far too extravagant...

"These four Devil Fruits are..."

Ian recounted the details of the four fruits, then looked at Nami and said...

"You can pick one out of there, but you can't eat it yourself."

If Nami were to eat the "Lizard Fruit," that would be a real waste!

It's not that the fruit has been wasted, it's that people have been wasted!

"Only a fool would eat a Devil Fruit!"

Nami uttered a typical money-grubber's statement.

"Such a valuable treasure should definitely be sold!"

"Lord White Dragon, which of these four Devil Fruits do you think is the most valuable?"

valuable……

Ian had never imagined that the appeal of Devil Fruits could be measured from this perspective.

"If I had to say... it would be the [Komodo Dragon Fruit]. It's large, with good destructive power and defensive capabilities, and might fetch a good price at an auction."

"Then I'll take this [Komodo Dragon Fruit]!"

Nami immediately picked up one of the four Devil Fruits, held it tightly in her arms, and even hummed a little tune involuntarily.

"Pele~ Pele~ Pele~"

This money-grubbing attitude is truly something else.

Ian shook his head as he watched Nami's "performance".

This is truly a childhood trauma...

Some people spend their entire lives healing from their childhood trauma.

Nami will probably never escape the clutches of money in her lifetime...

Ian put away the other three "Lizard Fruits", along with the "Flame-Flame Fruit".

At this moment, Nami was still immersed in the joy of obtaining the Devil Fruit.

"Almost got it."

Ian patted Nami's forehead, both amused and exasperated, and then casually picked up the [Komodo Giant Lizard Fruit].

"I'll save this fruit for you and give it to you when you need it."

"Now, it's time to leave this anthill hell!"

As Nami looked at the Komodo Dragon Fruit that Ian had taken away, she felt like she had heard his words somewhere before.

However, she really didn't have a place to put the [Komodo Dragon Fruit].

If it gets bumped or knocked over by accident, the priceless Devil Fruit might be ruined...

Nami couldn't bear that kind of blow.

"Lord White Dragon, you must take good care of this fruit!"

"Ah."

"Lord White Dragon, when the time comes, I'll take this fruit and sell it. We'll split the money between us... 90/10, I'll get 90% and you get 10%."

"Ok?"

"Waaah... fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty is alright, right?"

"No, please be quiet for a while."

Ian held down the feigning-crying little thief cat and looked up at the northwest direction of the anthill hell.

Even without using Observation Haki to perceive.

Ian saw a small black dot flying upwards in an illogical manner.

[Observation Haki] activated.

Ian "saw" more carefully.

That "little black dot" is actually an island!

An island that is "floating" upwards!

"It seems we've unexpectedly run into some very important person!"

Chapter 134 Sky Islands! Legends of the Old Age! Shiki the Golden Lion!

"Stay where you are and do not move."

Ian withdrew his Observation Haki and turned to look at Nami beside him, giving her a serious word of advice.

"I'll be back as soon as I go."

Nami sensed Ian's seriousness, bit her lip, nodded silently, and stopped being mischievous.

Ian left a blue-eyed white dragon with Nami as her "guardian dragon".

Immediately afterwards, he rode another blue-eyed white dragon, soaring straight into the sky.

Less than a moment.

Ian rode the Blue-Eyes White Dragon high into the sky. He followed the rising island he had just discovered and eventually arrived at a very special "archipelagic area".

This is a vast sky archipelago, with islands of all sizes floating high in the sky, much like a "sky island" that only exists in fantasy stories.

At the very center of this sky archipelago is a floating island roughly shaped like a ship.

A majestic golden lion's head stands at the front of this floating island, while densely packed wooden oars are planted on both sides of the island, making it look like an "island ship" that can sail freely in the sky!

Looking out over the entire ocean.

A pirate crew that uses an entire island as its "ship".

Ian only knew two examples.

One is Moonlight Moria's "Terror Three-Masted Ship".

Another one is Shiki the Golden Lion's "floating island ship"!

"Although I already knew that Shiki the Golden Lion's [Float-Float Fruit] could effortlessly manipulate islands, making them float freely in the sky."

"But when you witness this scene with your own eyes, you can't help but feel shocked."

"Shiki the Golden Lion, his Float-Float Fruit has definitely been developed to the Awakening level!"

Ian took a deep breath, his Observation Haki mixed with the faint electromagnetic waves granted by the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, sensing the Flying Islands ahead.

All of a sudden.

Ian heard clearly all the "sounds" in the Flying Islands.

Laughter, the sound of drinking, and the roars of monsters...

Most importantly, Ian has heard the "voice" of Shiki the Golden Lion.

The moment the main target is locked in.

Ian raised his right hand, and dazzling lightning condensed on his palm, communicating with the free electrons in the surrounding environment, with a continuous "buzzing" sound of electricity.

next moment.

Ian swung his right hand downwards, and a bolt of lightning as thick as a water column suddenly descended from the sky above, striking precisely near the central mast of the floating island ship.

God’s sanction!

Rumbling--

It erupted with a deafening roar.

The central mast of the floating island ship is like an oversized lightning rod, attracting all the surrounding lightning and enveloping the entire mast in powerful lightning.

The terrifying electric current spread in all directions, relentlessly attacking everything around it, whether living or non-living, all were subject to the lightning's assault.

In Ian's perception, the aura surrounding the central mast of the floating island rapidly became chaotic.

And at the same time.

A fierce and domineering aura also erupted from that direction.

The next moment.

Several crescent-shaped flying slashes shot out from the center of the floating island ship. They flew at extremely high speeds, easily tearing through the surrounding atmosphere and emitting a sharp and terrifying whistling sound, like the roar of a lion.

The targets of these flying slashes are very clear.

It's the blue-eyed white dragon at Ian's feet!

Facing the oncoming flying slash.

Ian and the Blue-Eyes White Dragon are of one mind.

The latter opened its gaping maw and aimed at the flying attack in front of it, unleashing a dragon's roar that resounded through the sky.

[Dragon Roar]!

"Roar--"

A violent shockwave erupted from directly in front of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, fearlessly meeting the sharp flying slashes head-on.

The two forces collided violently in mid-air, instantly unleashing a deafening explosion.

Rumbling--

The crescent-shaped flying slash and the fan-shaped dragon roar shockwave collided in the sky, and the terrifying power transformed into visible white waves of air that spread outwards, as if a super hurricane had been unleashed in the high heavens.

Affected by the shockwave, the surrounding floating islands moved a short distance into the distance.

At this time.

A golden figure flashed out from the central island ship of the Flying Islands.

He was dressed in a simple outfit with a distinct Wano Country style, with gorgeous golden hair like a lion's mane cascading down his back. However, his head was completely bare, with a dark brown ship's wheel sticking out of his bald head.

Golden Lion Shiki!

"Jie hahaha!"

Shiki the Golden Lion stood atop two swords, Sakura-ju and Moku-ku, floating freely in the sky. Gusts of wind whipped his robes and long hair, but could not conceal his domineering aura.

"Haku? You're the newly appointed Shichibukai, Haku, by the World Government?"

Shiki the Golden Lion recognized Ian's identity at a glance.

That blue-eyed white dragon was really too conspicuous.
