Sure enough, when Ian was dragged to the beach by Nana, he saw Reiju and Robin.
Like Nana, both Reiju and Robin were in sexy swimwear. Reiju, who always favored pink, wore a pink strapless bikini top that was a bit tight, emphasizing her ample chest.
Her bottoms were also pink, with tie-sides.
She lay on a sun lounger, under the shade of a beach umbrella, with her legs crossed, reading a magazine.
Robin, on the other hand, wore black tie-side bikini bottoms and a red-and-white floral high-waisted top. She had tied the ends of the top in a knot at her chest, using it as a swim top, which caused a small part of her chest to peek out from below.
Compared to them, Nana was not outdone. Without her usual knight’s armor, she fully showcased her figure. Although her bust size was a bit smaller, her abdomen had a beautiful curve, a result of long-term physical training, exuding a sense of gentle strength.
With these three beautiful girls gathered together, Ian felt dizzy at the sight, his nose feeling warm as if something was about to flow out.
“Robin, Reiju!” Nana said happily. “Look who I brought along!”
The two women on the lounge chairs pushed up their sunglasses and saw Ian’s unwavering gaze. Robin chuckled and said, “Captain, what are you doing here?”
Reiju covered her mouth and laughed softly, “You look just like my silly brother Sanji right now…”
Nana found a bottle of sunscreen and shoved it into Ian’s hand, winking at him, “Hehe, lucky you! This is a unique benefit of our Dragon Hunter Pirates!”
Reiju and Robin exchanged a smile, understanding Nana’s intention. The three of them turned over, lying face down on the lounge chairs, and reached behind to gently unhook their bikini tops.
Then, they looked at Ian and said, “Captain, please take care of us…”
Seeing the three’s smooth, unobstructed backs and the beautiful curves squeezed out from the sides, Ian couldn’t help but feel like crying tears of joy and wanted to shout to the heavens.
This is amazing! This is what a real vacation is all about!
He looked at his hands, wondering if he should pretend to slip later.
Looking again at the graceful figures of the three ladies, even the shadow brought by Miss Bakkin was healed…
At this moment, Ian thought of running under the sunset and felt that he had no regrets in his youth.
Proudly holding the sunscreen, Ian forgot all about Baccarat, leaving her to watch from a distance, feeling conflicted. She finally understood why her charm didn’t work on Ian.
……
While Ian was enjoying his world of benefits, he had no idea that at this moment, three ships were approaching the Tessoro not far away on the sea.
To the south, a cruise ship was specifically for transporting tourists to the Tessoro.
Most of the passengers on this ship were wealthy nobles from around the world. They were gathered on the upper deck of the cruise ship, already starting various parties as a prelude to their upcoming vacation in the Golden City.
On the lower deck, however, the passengers are commoners or pirates. These individuals have long endured poverty and dream of striking it rich in the Golden City overnight. They carry their last possessions, planning to risk it all for a chance at wealth. While they envy the revelry of the rich above, they are filled with hope and anticipation for their lives in the Golden City.
On the deck, a tall man in a cloak leans against the railing, his face expressionless as he watches the scenes of life unfold on the ship.
Whether it’s the extravagant nobles or the hopeful commoners and pirates, nothing stirs any emotion on this man’s face.
A gust of sea wind lifts the hood of his cloak, revealing the man’s face beneath. On his left cheek is a strange red square tattoo, shaped like scales.
If any high-ranking Navy officer were to see this man’s face, they would likely do everything in their power to contact the World Government and Navy, mobilizing all available forces to sink this cruise ship completely!
Because this man is Monkey D. Dragon! The most dangerous criminal wanted by the World Government, the Supreme Leader of the Revolutionary Army!
After leaving Baltigo, Dragon has hidden his identity and now appeared on this cruise ship, on his way to the Golden City…
…………………………
Meanwhile, to the north, a warship is also sailing. Strangely, there is no Navy flag on this ship, and even the seagull emblem on the sails has been removed.
This warship is also headed for the Gran Tesoro.
On the deck of the warship, former Navy Admiral Aokiji is lying on a chair, with one hand behind his head as a pillow and the other holding a letter.
White Hunter Smoker, chewing on a cigar, sits nearby. Seeing Aokiji’s actions, he can’t help but say, “That kid Ian sent you a letter out of nowhere, inviting Admiral Aokiji to the Tesoro. What’s he planning?”
“If you ask Kuina, she might be able to tell you the answer,” Aokiji replied, turning to Smoker. “But only if she’s willing to tell you. And stop calling me Admiral; I resigned from the Navy long ago.”
“Seriously…” Smoker grumbled, puffing on his cigar, “I left the Navy to follow you, and Hina has called more than once to scold me for it.”
Aokiji smiled slightly and said, “Actually, you shouldn’t have followed me.”
“It doesn’t matter!” Smoker reclined in his chair, hands behind his head. “After all, Kuina was my subordinate back then. With Akainu becoming the Fleet Admiral, he might have caused trouble for me too. Staying in the Navy would just make me a scapegoat.”
“Where’s Kuina anyway?” Aokiji asked.
“She’s in the cabin with Tashigi!” Smoker replied. “She got really excited when she heard we were going to the Golden City.”
Hearing this, Aokiji fell silent, put away Ian’s letter, and quietly watched as the Tesoro gradually came into view, transforming from a speck into a massive ship on the horizon.
…………………………
Lastly, on the eastern sea, a peculiar ship flying the flag of the Big Mom Pirates was also heading toward the Tesoro.
On this ship were Charlotte Family’s eldest son, Perospero, and second son, Katakuri.
“Brother, is that kid really on the Tesoro?”
Katakuri, with his arms crossed and his chin and lips hidden in a fluffy scarf, asked Perospero.
“Of course he’s there!” Perospero licked his candy cane with his long tongue and said, “Who would’ve thought that the Dragon Hunters Pirates having a Sky Island was true? If it wasn’t for the intel saying he appeared on the Tesoro, we wouldn’t have been able to find them to deliver the invitation!”
“Good thing they showed up!” Katakuri said. “Mom’s tea party is only a month away. All the preparations are almost done, but if we don’t have the guests invited, Mom will be furious!”
“I have no idea what Mom is thinking, wanting to form an alliance with the Dragon Hunters Pirates!” Perospero said, annoyed. “That kid Ian took quite a bit of my lifespan back then, and she still wants him to marry our 14th sister, Smoothie, to him!?”
“Smoothie probably won’t agree, right?” Katakuri said. “She’s got a strong personality and won’t look at just any man.”
“But the problem is, that kid Ian isn’t just any man!” Perospero said. “Before we set off, I got word that Smoothie has already agreed! She thinks a man with a bounty of 1.2 billion is worthy of her…”
Katakuri shook his head and said, “She might have agreed, but just like Mom, it’s all one-sided. Whether Ian agrees is another matter!”
“Heh heh!” Perospero smirked coldly, licking his candy cane. “But Mom has made up her mind. He has no choice but to agree! Whether it’s his soul power, that rare Three-Eyed Tribe bloodline, or even the Giants in his pirate crew, Mom’s interest has been seriously piqued…”
As they spoke, the outline of the Tesoro began to appear on the horizon…
