One Piece's Strongest Ice Dragon

Chapter 253 Target, Magnetic Drum Island! (Fifth update!)

"Hey, I said Loya, why do you think Drake betrayed the navy?"

Standing beside Loya, Simon, who stayed up all night, was puzzled, and finally asked this question.

Drake's father, Dies Barreiros, was once an admiral, and he was admired and trusted by Drake.But many years ago, he defected from the navy and became a pirate.

Then, when Drake was 19 years old, Barreiros died in Doflamingo's birdcage farce, and Drake was protected in the chaos by Lieutenant General Crane who rushed all the way, and then became took a navy.

It stands to reason that with his father as a negative teaching material, Drake should have one heart with the Navy.

But even after rummaging through the family information, Simon couldn't find a reason for Drake to defect from the navy.Even if he wanted to avenge Doflamingo, wouldn't he have a better chance of staying in the navy?

This answer can only be known when they really arrest him in the future, perhaps from Drake.

"The reason?"

Loya glanced at Simon and said, "To be honest, I don't care about this. Besides, I don't think you should care about this."

"As a soldier, you just follow orders."

"Uh, you're right." Simon choked for a moment, then smiled relievedly: "There's really nothing to delve into."

But, why do I always feel that there is something I didn't expect?Loya.

Staring at Loya's tall and straight figure, Simon frowned and thought.

Is Luo Ya really ignorant?
The answer is of course no.

At least he knows something on the bright side that explains Drake's betrayal.

According to the records, a few days ago, Vegapunk's pacifists made a staged progress, and they will soon be able to be mass-produced and put into use.

However, with the continuous improvement of the works, the scientist Vegapunk, who is 500 years ahead of the world, is not satisfied with the current level of the pacifist, and wants to further enhance its power.

But the problem also followed, he even transplanted the power of Admiral and Qiwuhai on the pacifist, who is more powerful than these two in this sea?
The head of the four emperors, known as the strongest white beard in the world?
Regardless of the fact that Whitebeard himself was half dead because of the ability to shake the fruit, Vegapunk is not confident that his pacifist mechanical structure has reached the point where it can rival Whitebeard's body.

Of course, if he really thinks that way, Whitebeard's bloodline factor is not so easy to get, and he will most likely be directly rejected by the Warring States Period and stillborn.

So (correctly), with this reminder of the idea, Vegapunk has noticed the most serious weakness of the pacifists right now.

That is the ability to fight against blows!

It is true that the pacifists with special bionic mechanical structures are not weak now, just look at the supernovas who deal with hardships in the original book.

However, a machine is always a machine, and the more precise the instrument, the more fragile it is.A human body of the same strength is definitely more resistant to beating than a machine.

Ever since, in order to solve this problem, Vegapunk's attention has shifted to Drake.

As the animal in the devil fruit, it is also an ancient Tyrannosaurus rex fruit known for its rough skin and thick flesh.Vegapunk didn't want to look far away, and went to the sea to find a suitable fruit ability again.

Most importantly, Drake is only a major general.Faced with his invitation, the other party has no right to refuse at all.

At first, Drake thought that it was the same as General Yellow Ape, and that it would be fine to cooperate with the test and just take some blood samples.

However, following that day's discovery, Drake fled Navy Headquarters the next day.

That day happened to be the day when Shichibukai's "tyrant" Xiong underwent body modification.According to Vegapunk's explanation, the operation performed at that time happened to be mechanizing the internal organs of the bear.

Loya didn't understand what black technology was at work here, but he could understand Drake's mood at the time.

Seeing the majestic Qiwuhai being dissected and replaced with mechanical parts one by one was undoubtedly a very terrifying thing for him, who is also the subject of the experiment.

If it were his body, Loya felt that he would also run away.

However, he will try first, whether he can kill that lunatic first and benefit the society.

But these are things for later, their main goal now is to find Drake first.

One month later, the first half of the great voyage.

On the blue sea, six warships cut through the sea and moved forward at high speed.

The blue sky and white clouds correspond to the sea surface, which is so beautiful.A few pure white seagulls with a touch of black followed behind the warship, flapping their wings lazily with the help of the airflow brought by the warship, and hovering in the air.From time to time, they chirped crisply, as if they were begging for food from the warship.

However, even Loya, who is a non-indigenous traveler and lives in the basin area, knows that these beautiful and well-behaved seagulls are actually the ugliest gangsters.

They are acting cute to you now, and are actually always ready to snatch your food. No one will have a good impression of these little robbers except the silly white sweets who have nothing to worry about.

Coincidentally, there wasn't a single idiot on board the warship!

Hence.
"Spiderweb Bunch!"

Accompanied by Simon's soft shout, the white and slender special silk thread was fired out layer by layer.

It's really layer upon layer!
Because these silk threads did not fly out in a straight line, on the contrary, they were launched horizontally!Then it stretches left and right to a certain length, then turns back, and pounces on the seagulls in the air layer by layer.

When these silk threads reached the predetermined position, they opened quickly with a bang, and a huge spider web suddenly appeared in midair.When the seagulls had no time to dodge, they tightened up suddenly and put them all in the big net.

"Luoya, do you think it's better fried or braised?"

Pulling the silk thread stretched from the back of the spider web, Simon shouted loudly at Loya, who was lying and sleeping on Pippi Shrimp's back.

Hearing the question, Loya raised his eyelids, and the invisible magic power agitated, but the obviously very slight voice overcame the noise of the sea wind and waves, and fell into Simon's ears clearly.

The voice said.

"Look at our military emblem, and then ask me this question"

"Um..." Simon looked up at the open sails on the warship, then lowered his head and said, "I think it's better to braise or make soup?"

"No, fried."

"Roger that!"

Regarding the interaction between the two, what can the accompanying ordinary soldiers say.Anyway, you are the boss, as long as you are happy.

At this moment, a rush of footsteps came from far to near, and soon came to Simon.

"Report! Second Lieutenant Simon, received news from the headquarters!"

"Headquarters?" Simon blinked, suddenly remembered something, and his face became serious: "Say!"

"Yes!"

After the orderly saluted, he took out the document and handed it to Simon, and said at the same time: "The headquarters has been confirmed. The target person Dies Drake appeared on Magnetic Drum Island a day ago, and he is only one day away from us!"

"Magnetic Drum Island. Either someone was injured, or they need to replenish supplies. There should be time."

Simon looked up at Loya, saw that the other party was nodding to him, so he gave an order.

"The whole army turned around and marched towards Magnetic Drum Island!"

"Yes!"

Lying on the special leather sofa, Luo Ya took out a piece of fruit and threw it into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it together with the core.

"Drum Island? So, I can see the mascot?"

Thinking of that cute animal, Luo Ya cheered up all of a sudden.However, he suddenly frowned and thought: "Wait, if they continue to escape, don't we have to turn around? Well, I remember, Jones is in this sea area, right?"

With that said, Luo Ya took out the phone bug and dialed out.
