Pirate's Fire Dragon's Claw

Chapter 348 The Precarious Dressrosa
New World, Glenn Territory, a deserted island near the base camp

Glenn stood in the center of the island, holding two dragon-horn knives in his hands. The blades and his body were entwined with purple flames. Yes, the purple flames were no longer black smoke and flames emerging at the same time, but purple. flame

This is Glenn's newly discovered dragon horn knife usage after the battle with Shanks. The black smoke is not as useless as he thought. Although they have no attack power, they can be fused with other energies , strengthen the attack power of other energies
Just like now, after the black smoke merged with Glenn's flame, it turned purple, the temperature of the flame was greatly increased, and it was more difficult to extinguish than before

There is also the black smoke dragon flying out of the blade, maybe it should be called the Ziyan dragon now, it is no longer harmless, but it still does not obey Glenn's command, when there is no one else it will even attack glen

Glenn was not very proficient in using it when he just discovered this, but he has been practicing on this deserted island for a while, and now he is completely proficient in using it.

"It's time to go back"

Glenn looked up at the sky that was slowly darkening and said to himself, then retracted the dragon horn knife into the scabbard, dissipated the domineering look, and the purple flames on his body also slowly disappeared. With his upper body bare, he called out the wings on his back Come out and rush in the direction of the base camp

During the flight, Glenn looked down at his body. There was a terrible scar on his left chest where the heart was. Although it has healed now, he can still imagine the horror of the wound when he was injured. Kex left him

About the battle between him and Shanks a month ago, the outside world is so rumored that the two were tied, it was no big deal, they each retreated and left, Glenn gave up attacking BIG MOM
The fact is not like that, the two of them can only be said to be barely a tie, and they are not all fine, on the contrary, both of them were seriously injured

On that day, Glenn found that it was difficult to defeat Shanks in a normal state, so he transformed into a dragon form and began to tyrannize Shanks. Later, Shanks was forced to rush, and against Glenn's flames, he slammed his sword Stabbed into Glenn's heart, came a loser
As a result, Glenn fell into a coma after being stabbed in the heart, and Shanks was also injured by Glenn's flames.
Of course, Shanks didn’t really come alone that day, his crew was waiting for him not far away, when Shanks was injured, they quickly picked him up, Luo and Ace saw Glenn In a coma, he had to give up the plan to attack BIG MOM and send Glenn back to the territory

The heart was pierced, and others might have died long ago, but Glenn, relying on the strong vitality of the awakened animals, woke up from the coma the next day, and healed completely after another day

Afterwards, Glenn wanted to continue the previous attack plan, but he was dissuaded by Luo and Nat. The reason was similar to what Shanks said. Although Glenn might not care about Shanks’ opinions, he still would Listen, so I canceled the plan to attack BIG MOM, and Luo also returned to his resident

A few minutes later, Glenn flew back to the base camp. As soon as he flew back, someone told him that Nat was looking for him, so Glenn went directly to where Nat was.
After seeing Glenn, Nat poured him a cup of tea and asked with a smile:
"How is your cultivation going?"

Glen sat across from Nat and took a sip of tea

"It's not bad, what do you want me to do?"

"Well, the latest news, Shanks is fine, he was rescued, and he is fully recovered now"

"As expected, if he dies so easily, he doesn't deserve to continue to be the Fourth Emperor. Is there anything else?"

"Yes, the King of Dressrosa contacted us through the Dark World"

glen frowned
"The king of Dressrosa? I remember that the king there is called King Riku. He seems to be a very upright king. How could he find us through the dark world?"

Nat smiled

"He may have been a righteous king before, but now, hehe, the country is almost gone, and his integrity is worth nothing now"

Glenn asked suspiciously:

"Did something happen to Dressrosa?"

nat shook his head
"Actually, there were no major accidents in their country. It's just that the economy of their country has been slowly collapsing since more than three years ago. Now the people's lives in their country are very bad, and they are almost on the verge of subjugation."

"So serious? How could this be? I remember that the country was very prosperous when Doflamingo was king."

nat pointed to glen

"Actually, it's all thanks to you"

"Ah? What's the matter with me?"

"More than 3 years ago, when you were still in the navy, didn't you go to Dressrosa with Luo to kill Jack and Doflamingo? That incident was the source of all this"

"No way?"

"Why not? You fought fiercely in Dressrosa at that time. Most of the buildings are probably in ruins."

"That's true, but a country will never perish because of this thing."

Glenn frowned. He remembered that the battle between Luffy and Doflamingo in the original book was also very fierce. Dressrosa was almost destroyed, but it was rebuilt very well in the end, not to mention that it is about to perish now.
"Indeed, if it was just your destruction, it wouldn't cause Dressrosa's demise, but because you killed Jack, Kaido came after you, right?"

Glenn nodded, as if that was the case.
Nat smiled

"That's right, as far as I know, because Kaido didn't catch up with you at the time, Kaido poured out his anger on Dressrosa, completely destroyed Dressrosa, which was already dilapidated, and killed A large number of citizens has caused Dressrosa's economy to deteriorate day by day."

Glenn thought about it, although Kaido ruined Dressrosa, but in the end it was because of his relationship with Luo, so he nodded helplessly

"Well, it is indeed because of me, but so what, did King Riku contact us for revenge?"

nat shook his head
"Of course not, he is not a fool, how could he seek revenge from us?"

"Then what does he want?"

"It's like this. Although Doflamingo and his cadres are dead, many pirates have surrendered, and the underground port he used to trade with the dark world is also there. King Riku was forced to No way, I want to take the risk, restart the underground port, and generate income for the country by manufacturing and selling weapons.”

"Heh, he really has an idea, so why is he looking for us? Want to sell us weapons?"

nat shook his head
"No, the reason why Doflamingo was able to get along so well in the dark world back then was because he had the identity of Shichibukai as a guarantee, but King Riku didn't have that kind of convenience, so he thought of you. He said that you and Luo got along well with him in Dressrosa, so he wanted us to help him introduce buyers.”

Glenn understands now
"He wants us to act as an intermediary for him to help him buy those weapons"

"yes"

"How will the profits be divided?"

"Thirty-seven points"

glen frowned
"Why is it only [-]%?"

Nat couldn't laugh or cry
"Of course not, we are [-]%"

Glenn looked a little embarrassed

"Well, that's not bad, what do you think? Is it feasible, and is there any risk?"

nat shakes his head

"There should be no risk. No one has dared to lie to us, and we don't need to do anything. Basically, we just wait for the money to be collected. I think this is feasible."

"Well, there is no reason to refuse the free money from others, so go and answer King Riku and say we agreed."

Nat smiled

"Alright, besides this matter, King Riku wants to ask us for something else"

"Anything else? What's the matter?"

"Didn't it be said that Kaido killed many residents of Dressrosa, so the population of Dressrosa is now very small, so King Riku wants to follow the example of Doflamingo and hold a competition in the bullfighting arena , use generous rewards to attract strong people from all over the world, and add some population to Dressrosa, even if it is floating population or tourists."

"Great reward? What reward?"

"A devil fruit, or the devil fruit you are familiar with"

"I'm familiar with it? What?"

"Line Fruit"

"Isn't that the fruit of Doflamingo? How did he get it?"

Nat stall hand

"I'm not sure about this, but the prize is the fruit of the famous Shichibukai, who is also the former king of Dressrosa. This gimmick is enough anyway, and many people have already gone to Dressrosa. Rosa is gone"

"This matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with us. What does King Riku want us to do for him?"

"King Liku is worried that someone will steal or snatch the fruit of the line before the game, so he wants us to send someone to help protect it, and hopes that we can send a cadre to be their champion. If our people succeed in defending the ring The fruit of the thread is the reward, if our man fails to defend the ring, he will give us half of the profit in the weapon transaction as reward."

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is really a waste of money. He has such a close relationship with us, isn't he afraid that the world government will be disgusted? Their country is a member of the world government."

"In fact, they are no longer. The world government has removed their country from the world government alliance countries not long ago because their country could not pay the heavenly gold to the Tianlong people, and because they have no world government asylum, their country recently We are often patronized by pirates, the reason why they seek us to cooperate and give us so much profit should also mean to seek asylum."

Glenn said with a strange expression:
"Protection fees?"

nat shrugged
"You seem to be right in saying that."

"Do you think we should help him?"

"It doesn't seem to be a problem to help a group. Anyway, it's just to use the name of our pirate group to deter others. Whether it's the fruit of the thread or the profit of the operation, it's all for nothing for us."

"Okay, let's leave this to you, too."

"Yes, yes, King Riku said that he hoped to send Luo there, because he and Luo knew each other more or less, so he was more at ease."

"Well, you can go ask Luo, if he wants to go, he can go, if he doesn't want to, just find someone to go."

"Ok"
