Chapter 233

Ian didn't forget the purpose of his visit to ace, so he whispered to ace, who held him and said, "ace, have you seen Dickie?"

At this time, Marshall D. teach didn't seem to have the title of Blackbeard, which seemed to be the name he got after he turned out the white beard group, so Ian said his name directly.

"Dickie?" Ace was stunned when he heard the name, and then said, "Oh, come to think of it, it's that guy. I've seen him on the boat. It seems that he's a good guy."

Ian nodded to confirm his conjecture. Dicky appeared here with white beard and said that after the event of wound Island, he was summoned back. Then ace and he had definitely met.

However, from ace's reply, Ian found that this guy seems to be disguised very well. He has been in the white beard Pirate Group for a long time. He always pretends to be honest and heroic, and hides his ambition deeply. He not only deceives others, but also seems to have a good impression on the newcomer.

"Ian, have you met Dickie?" As he helped Ian walk, ACE asked him.

"Yes, I saw it when I was on windup island!" Ian Road, with all the tingling blessing, Ian was held by ACE, and now he was very close, so he whispered to ace: "listen to me, ACE, you have to be careful of Dickie, he is not as simple as he seems!"

Ace frowned and said, "but I think he's good. I like the atmosphere of the white bearded Pirate Group, too..."

Ian shook his head and said, "ace, have I ever harmed you?"

"No!" Ace said with a smile, "you and I are brothers. How can you harm me? By the way, if I have a chance to meet Luffy in the future, I'll introduce him to you. I believe he will also like your brother very much! "

Ian laughed and said, "say it again, but ace, you must pay attention to my words!"

"Well, all right!" Ace nodded. "I'll watch that guy."

Ian was a little relieved to hear him say that. However, he calculated carefully. He knew that ACE would have to spend two years with Tiki. During this period, the deep-seated Blackbeard would use his own performance to weaken his vigilance. Maybe in the end, ACE would think that Ian was worried.

Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help frowning and thinking about how to solve the problem.

It's impossible for him to join the white beard Pirate Group. Joining the white beard pirate group means recognizing white beard as a father. But Ian has his own parents. Even after he comes to this world, he meets two masters, gengshiro and Raleigh. He also has sister guyna and younger martial brother soron. His relatives are still there, so he doesn't lack paternal love like ace, Psychologically, Ian can't accept other people as a father.

Ian admits that white beard is really good. He really takes ace and his family as his son. If Ian is really a poor man, maybe he will follow white beard and treat the brothers of the Pirate Group as his family,.

The problem is, Ian is not.

If there is not too much deviation in history, two years later, that is, when Luffy went out to sea, Tiki would kill the fourth time team leader Sacchi because he wanted to snatch the secret fruit, and then betray the white beard Pirate Group.

Two years. Since Ian doesn't want to join the white beard Pirate Group, he can't stay with ace for two years.

Moreover, Ian didn't know when the fruit appeared, so he couldn't come back at that time.

Only to think of other ways. Ian took a look at the white beard walking in front of him and felt that this was not the time to talk with ACE in detail, so he had to stop talking about it for the time being.

But as a fool, he didn't know that Ian was worrying about his affairs. He happily told Ian about the things he had met during this period of time.

When all the people left the port and entered the city of the Principality of Salamis, the former fighting place became empty, the intern reporter Pulitz got up shivering and ran away quickly.

Today's scene is too exciting for him, a new intern reporter. Fortunately, no one will trouble him for such a small person, and because of this once-in-a-lifetime report, he will prosper in the future.

Pulitzer left, but what he didn't know was that just after he left, another figure appeared here.

This figure looks very mysterious. He is covered in a green cloak. The hood of the cloak covers his head tightly.

He stood in the same place, looking around at the chaos that had been destroyed by the fighting, and couldn't help smiling.

"Bear, it seems that you are worried for nothing. This little guy is more capable than we thought..." the mysterious man whispered to himself, then moved his steps and left slowly.

A slight sea breeze came and touched his hood, revealing part of the mysterious man's face. On his left face, there was a strange scaly tattoo

After walking into the city, Ian knew how famous the white beard Pirate Group was in this country. In the propaganda of the Navy, white beard is a terrible pirate. This strongest man is often used by some mothers to scare crying children and tell them that if they cry again, white beard will come! However, this refers to the situation that only occurs in some of the world's Government allies. In Salamis, this situation is the reverse. White beard has been at sea for decades in his life. He has met all kinds of people, but he is not a grumpy and perverse person. Therefore, he has made many friends in his life. The king of Fishman island and knight nipton are not the only example. Of course, the so-called friends with white beard are almost as old as he is now. Under the escort of the Salamis National Guard, white beard appeared on the streets of the city and was found by people hiding in their homes. The crowd suddenly surged out“ Daddy!? Look, it's really Daddy“ White bearded pirates! It's the white bearded Pirate Group“ God, Salamis is really saved“ Malcolm, and Malcolm the undead“ Is that fire boxing ace? He's also a member of the white bearded Pirate Group. That's great Although the people of the Principality of Salamis are still in awe of white beard, they are also warmly welcoming the arrival of the white beard Pirate Group. They are shouting white beard, shouting the names of the captains of the various squads who follow him, and rushing into the sky with a loud voice. Ian looked at the scene in dismay. He couldn't believe that he was welcoming a big pirate. He looked at the smiling faces of the old people around the street and the excited and shrieking expressions of the young girls. It was like welcoming a hero“ Strange? " Marco noticed Ian's expression and said with a smile: "don't doubt, for this country, daddy is a hero!"“ What's going on? " Ace just joined, so he didn't know the history of the country, so he was curious“ The Principality of Salamis was originally a member of the world government! " Marco explained: "however, as the amount of gold in the sky demanded by the Tianlong people is getting higher and higher, this country also seems to be a little overwhelmed. You know, the gold in the sky is different from taxes. That is to say, countries that pay the gold in the sky to the Tianlong people generally levy extra taxes on the gold in the sky in addition to the normal taxes, His majesty Juan Carlos, king of the Principality of Salamis, is a good king. Seeing that his country is becoming increasingly poor because of the heavenly gold system, he resolutely decided to withdraw from the joining country. After the heavenly gold tax was reduced, he also reduced other taxes, which slowly made the country recover its vitality. "“ So, there are other franchisees who continue to levy taxes regardless of this influence? " Asked Ian“ Of course Marco nodded and said: "and there are many. For some kings, although the heavenly gold is paid to the Tianlong people, it does not come from them. The heavenly gold tax money is paid to the Tianlong people, while the normal tax money is paid to them, which is extracted from the people. So whether there is heavenly gold or not has nothing to do with them, even some countries, On the other hand, in the name of heaven's gold, they collect exorbitant taxes. " Ian shook his head when he heard this. No wonder at the world conference, many countries repeatedly proposed to abolish the Tianjin system. It seems that wise people have realized that this will lead to national unrest. Exorbitant taxes and levies have always been the source of unrest... "What happened later?" Asked ace“ Salamis also had a dark period after leaving the franchise country Malcolm said: "at that time, the Navy withdrew the defense forces stationed in this country, which led some pirates to find the emptiness of this country, so they took the opportunity to plunder the Principality of Salamis. The army of this country was unable to resist the endless stream of pirates, so in the end, his Majesty Carlos could only find his father and ask him to go out and take refuge in Salamis."“ His majesty Carlos met his father many years ago when he was traveling, but I haven't seen him for many years! " Marco said with a smile: "but when he found him, Dad recognized him at a glance, so he came to the island without hesitation and put up his flag. From then on, there will be no more pirates on the island. That's why people in the Principality of Salamis welcome dad so much." After hearing this, Ian couldn't help feeling a little agitated. Although white beard is old, the pirate has reached his peak. When will you be able to reach this point and protect a country with only one flag of dragon hunters and pirates?
