The cold sea water hit him, causing Ian to shiver.

It didn't matter if she fell into the water. Although Tina was a Devil Fruit user and couldn't swim, Ian could.

He held Tina tightly with one hand and slowly stepped on the water, staying afloat, waiting for the rescue of the navy warship.

However, what Ian didn't expect was that the Spade, whose hull disintegrated at this time, actually began to sink!

Everyone knows that when a ship sinks, it is very dangerous for people nearby, because when the ship sinks into the water, it will bring out a whirlpool, and the strong current will pull nearby people into the sea together.

This is the situation that Ian is encountering now. Because the hull of the Spade was attacked before, it had already begun to take in water. After it disintegrated, the speed of the shipwreck began to accelerate, and the navy's warships rushed over. But it still takes a while.

At this time, Ian had already felt the suction coming from him. Being in the sea and being on land were completely different. He couldn't use any strength. Now Ian was holding Tina in his arms and tried to swim forward twice. He found that After being unable to break away from this suction, I immediately knew that something was going to happen.

"Beauty! Remember to hold your breath later!" Ian said to Tina in his arms.

Tina's expression was very complicated at this time. She knew that she couldn't use any strength at all in the sea, so she had to rely on Ian to survive.

The waves rolled in, and a burst of force immediately swept Ian and Tina into the bottom of the sea.

Due to Ian's advance reminder, Tina also held her breath. Although she couldn't swim, as long as she held her breath for a while, she would be able to resurface after the Spade completely sank and the power of the water flow disappeared.

Ian held Tina in his left hand and pressed his hat tightly with his right hand. He didn't know if the phone bug in the hat would be okay, but he couldn't let go at this time, because once he let go, the hat would As the water drifted away, he might not be able to find it again. He could only maintain this posture, relying only on his legs to hit the water, trying to keep forward as much force as possible to prevent himself and Tina from being pulled too far by the current.

However, the suction caused by the sunken ship lasted longer than Ian imagined. As time went by, Tina couldn't hold it in anymore. Her already soft state in the sea water, coupled with the fact that she was a woman, her lung capacity was limited. But she was not as good as Ian. When she could no longer hold it in any longer, she couldn't help but move her body and struggled twice.

As soon as she moved like this, her body suddenly sank a little further. When Ian reacted and hugged her tightly again, he no longer hugged her waist, but suddenly hugged her chest. His arms came around and his palms immediately placed on her plump breasts.

Tina was shocked and couldn't help but opened her mouth to shout. However, she forgot that she was in the water. When she opened her mouth, the last bit of breath she was holding turned into bubbles and disappeared.

Not to mention the discomfort of choking on a mouthful of water into your lungs.

If this continues, Tina will really drown to death, but at this moment, Ian's mouth reached over, kissed her mouth all at once, and passed his breath to her.

Ian is actually quite helpless. In fact, he doesn't have any bad thoughts about Tina because Tina is much older than him. If the calculation is correct, Tina should be 29 years old at this time. Ian For her, it's just out of pure appreciation for the royal sister's style.

But things like falling into the water are so difficult to explain. Once a Devil Fruit ability user eats the Devil Fruit, they are basically insulated from swimming. Tina didn't know how many years she had not fallen into the water like this. Panic is inevitable. Under such circumstances, Ian couldn't let her die and could only protect her, so this kind of bloody plot was inevitable.

Fortunately, after Tina was given a breath, she finally calmed down and did not dare to struggle any more. People who fell into the water struggled wildly, and sometimes it was easy to harm the people who saved them. She knew this.

Feeling that the suction of the water was slowly decreasing, Ian swung his legs and floated toward the water. In fact, he could hardly hold it in any longer.

At this time, the third warship was already approaching and was searching for those who fell into the water. At that time, there were not only Ian and Tina on the Spade, but also some naval soldiers who had been knocked unconscious by Ace's domineering aura. These The navy was agitated by the cold water and woke up one after another, and desperately came to the surface to ask for help.

"Huha!!" After their heads emerged from the sea again, both Ian and Tina couldn't help but take a long breath.

He pulled out the Yama Sword from his waist and raised it high. The next second, flames filled the entire blade. The blazing fire looked so eye-catching in the night. After the search personnel on the warship saw it, they quickly put it down. The lifeboat rowed towards Ian and Tina.

"Thank you..." Tina gasped and whispered to Ian: "But...how long will your hands be touching?"

Ian was stunned for a moment, then found that his hand was still on Tina's breasts, and quickly moved down a little distance, saying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

However, even though he said this, Ian was still recalling the feeling just now. Tina had been wearing a red navy uniform, so that only now, Ian discovered that there was something material underneath this uniform! It felt bigger than he thought.

Tina didn't say anything. She was a mature woman and would not blush over such a trivial matter. She had no choice but to do so before, and she could understand this.

After getting on the lifeboat and returning to the navy ship, both Tina and Ian breathed a long sigh of relief.

Tina sat on the deck, and soon a navy soldier brought her a dry cloak and a cup of hot water, but Ian ignored him.

Tina looked at the sea-floor stone shackles on her ankles and then at her soaked clothes. She stood up and said, "I'm going to change my clothes!"

After saying that, she glanced at Ian again and told the naval soldier: "Give him a cup of hot water!"

"That's right!" Ian smiled at her.

Tina snorted coldly and went into the cabin without looking back. Only the navy soldiers on the warship looked at Ian warily.

Although they also knew that Colonel Tina was rescued by this person, because Ian was a member of the previous pirate ship, the navy soldiers could not figure out his identity, so they could only adopt this lukewarm approach. attitude toward him.

Ian didn't mind, and took off the hat on his head, intending to see if the phone bug was alright.

After taking it off and taking a look, Ian was a little panicked because the phone bug had come out of the shell and looked sickly.

"This...what's the matter?"

Ian hurriedly grabbed a navy soldier and asked him.

"It should be the salt in the sea water that has damaged it!" Navy soldiers have more opportunities to come into contact with telephone bugs, so they understand and explained to Ian: "Telephone bugs are also water-loving creatures, but they are fresh water, and the salt in sea water On the contrary, it will cause it to become dehydrated. It hasn’t been soaked in the sea for too long, so just soak it in fresh water as soon as possible.”

So Ian quickly asked the navy soldier for some fresh water, put it in a basin, and put the phone bug in it.

The effect was quite good. After a while, the phone bug gradually became more energetic.

Just as Ian breathed a sigh of relief, Tina also changed her clothes and came out of the cabin. The first thing she did after coming out was to ask about the casualties.

Most of the naval soldiers who were knocked unconscious by Ace were fished out. The only trouble now is the soldiers on the warship that Ace and his friends drove away.

Tina thought for a while and asked Ian to follow her into the cabin.

After arriving in a room, she asked him with a cold face: "Your pirate friend took away my warship, and there were my soldiers on the ship. How do you plan to explain this?"

"Don't worry!" Ian nodded towards her: "As long as you follow the route of the warship, you will definitely find your soldiers!"

"Very good!" Tina said, "This is what you said. From now on, you will be under house arrest. If I don't find my soldiers, then you will be responsible."

Although Tina is very grateful to Ian for saving her, one size fits the bill.

Ian shrugged, it didn't matter to him, because he knew that with Ace's personality, those naval soldiers would indeed not be in danger.

"Speaking of which, you won't want me wanted, right?" Ian asked Tina.

"I have checked your identity! You are indeed a pirate hunter, and you are also a very famous pirate hunter in the East China Sea!" Tina flicked her long, wet pink hair, lit a cigarette and held it in her mouth. He suddenly asked Ian: "Is Smog okay?"

Ian was not surprised that she would ask about Smoker. In Ian's memory, Tina and Smoker were naval cadets at the same time, so he nodded and said, "Fortunately, I just fought with him before I went to sea." Had a fight and he looked very energetic."

Tina smiled, and then asked curiously: "You are obviously a pirate hunter, why would you make friends with pirates? Tina is very strange!"

"This is a long story!" Ian sighed and said, "You haven't answered my question yet."

&

nbsp; "Don't worry!" Tina said: "I won't want you, but it's hard to say that about your friend!"

Ian nodded. This was something he expected. In fact, from the very beginning when he saw that the commander of this naval force was Tina, Ian understood that there was room for maneuver!

Among the navy, there are also people with different ideas, such as Akainu Sakaski or Pitbull Lieutenant General Dauberman. They are the so-called hawks. They have a completely tough attitude towards pirates. If If you meet such a person, what happened about Ian on Ace's ship will make no sense.

However, Tina is different. Although she belongs to the Navy Headquarters, she is a relatively gentle one. She will attack real pirates, but when she encounters a special situation like Ian, she will also have other consider.

This is the reason why Ian chose to stay and rescue Tina. With this feeling, he might not be reported by Tina and issued a wanted order.

In fact, Ian also understands that it is quite embarrassing for him to maintain his identity as a pirate hunter. If you want to be more pure, he can just catch any pirate he sees. But by chance, he and some pirates There is a connection. Ace is the same, and Zoro will be the same in the future. Fortunately for Ace, Zoro is basically his junior brother. This identity cannot be shaken off. Once he and Luffy go to sea and become pirates, Ian will be the same. He couldn't be caught either.

At this point, Ian is actually in a similar situation to Garp. Garp is a vice admiral, but his son is a revolutionary soldier, and his grandson will become a pirate in the future. It is very embarrassing no matter what.

This may be the so-called people can't help themselves in the world. Everyone they know has their own ideals and paths, and he can't interfere with other people's choices...

After thinking about it, Ian asked Tina: "Where are you going next? Back to the Navy Headquarters?"

Tina nodded and said: "There was an accident in rounding up the Iron Bones Pirates this time. The operation can only end here. Your friend Ace caused some losses to my troops. The ship was destroyed and we must I have to go back for repairs, so I can only go back to the Navy Headquarters first."

"Then let me ride on the boat!" Ian smiled: "I will follow your boat to the Shampoo Islands!"

It was not without reason that Ian suddenly decided to go to the Chambord Islands. After thinking about the events that had happened during this period, he realized that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.

The situation on the Grand Route is completely different from the original one in the East China Sea. Navigation on the Great Route requires recording pointers, and one can only go from island to island. Under such circumstances, even if Ian caught the pirate , it is also quite troublesome to send it to the naval base to collect the bounty. He still hasn't figured out where the G-3 branch on this route is!

This can be seen from the fact that Ian has not made any money for a long time after entering the Grand Line. When he killed Pix on Bibico Island, he was completely unable to take away the reward.

Moreover, even if he finds the location of the G-3 branch base, what if he continues forward and catches the pirates, can he go back and run to the branch again?

He doesn't have so many permanent pointers that he can move freely on the route...

This kind of route, which is destined to only take a straight line forward, is actually specially set up for pirates to take risks. Ian wants to be a pirate hunter, so there are so many islands in the Grand Route. What is really helpful to him? In fact, there is only one Shampoo Islands!

Not only is it close to the navy headquarters, but it is also the meeting point of several routes. All kinds of pirates will eventually gather there. Ian can just sit back and wait on the Chambord Islands, waiting for the pirates to come to his door. , after being caught, you can send it to the Navy Headquarters to collect the bounty at any time, it is close and convenient.

Only the Chambord Islands are the paradise that truly belongs to Ian.

Therefore, it is actually a good thing to meet Tina here. Tina must have a permanent pointer to the Navy Headquarters Marinefando, and Ian can take her ship and go directly to the Shampoo Islands.

These are the two reasons why Ian wants to stay and separate from Ace here. One is to prove himself to Tina with practical actions and prevent her from issuing a wanted order for him, and the other is to get on the navy ship directly. Go to Shampoo Island.

This is not just a difference in identity and path. Ace is a pirate. He can go on adventures island by island. He can move forward whether he has money or not. However, Ian cannot do what he does. His strength increases. , relies on a lot of money, so although it's a pity, he can only skip these adventures.

Of course, there are actually many unknown factors in the Chambord Islands. They are under the nose of the Navy Headquarters. Not only are there admirals on the battlefield, but there are also Tianlong people. If something happens that Ian can't bear to see, will it happen? What kind of accidents will happen, etc., Ian needs to act according to the circumstances.

But no matter what, going to Shampoo Island is a better choice for Ian.

After listening to his words, Tina didn't speak for a long time, as if she was weighing the gains and losses, because after all, Ian is not a navy, and Tina didn't know if there would be any problems if a non-naval person was allowed to board the ship of the headquarters. .

Finally, Tina said: "Okay, this is my reward for saving me once, but your range of activities must be restricted! There are some confidential locations on the warship that you can't get close to!"

"That's no problem!" Ian nodded.

Although in the East China Sea, he also boarded a naval ship in the name of a swordsmanship instructor, but it was completely different from now. This was a standard warship of the Navy headquarters. Such a warship actually allowed him, an outsider, to board the ship. Tina was afraid In addition to saving her for himself, some of them were also for the sake of Garp and Smoker.

This makes Ian very lucky. This is also one of the reasons why he insists on maintaining his identity as a pirate hunter. He can have more or less a relationship with the navy. If he really becomes a pirate, he may stay on this ship. The only excuse is to be caught...

Now he and Tina have reached an agreement, which makes Ian find it quite funny. It seems that he has been constantly rubbing against ships, including merchant ships, pirate ships, and now he is rubbing against the Navy Headquarters. warship.

I don’t know when I will have a ship of my own...

That night, Tina arranged a room for Ian to stay in. The room was very small. It should belong to a naval soldier. Although the warship of this headquarters is huge, there are also many people on board, so the room seems small. Of course.

Tina and Ian both made a tacit agreement not to mention what happened when they fell into the water. Similarly, the matter about the sea tower stone shackles was also not mentioned. Ian used the sea tower stone shackles to restrain Ti with one move. Na, which led to Ace's smooth escape. This was a very shameful thing for Tina. It was impossible for her to return the shackles to Ian.

Ian also thought it was no big deal. After fighting Ace and discovering that his Nen and Haki were the same, and could be effective against Devil Fruit users, Ian no longer had any interest in using the Sea Tower Stone.

There's no way that when you see a Devil Fruit user in the future, you just pick up the Sea Tower Stone and handcuff it, right? How can you train your fighting ability like that?

In this way, the night passed. When Ian got up early the next morning, he got the news that the navy had caught up with the warship that Ace had taken away last night.

With such a huge warship, Ace and the others could barely sail it away with their few manpower, so halfway through, Ace and the others changed ships, drove away a small boat, destroyed the mast of the warship, and let the warship Staying where they were, the naval soldiers who were tied up by them also remained intact on the warship.

After learning the news, Tina breathed a sigh of relief and completely relaxed her supervision of Ian.

Of the three warships Tina brought out this time, only one was intact. Of the remaining two, one had a big hole punched by Ace's fire fist, and the other had its mast destroyed. It's impossible not to go back and repair it now. .

As a result, this naval force began to follow the guidance of the permanent pointer, thinking about returning to the Navy Headquarters.

Ian didn't know how long it would take to return, but he was not in a hurry. Every day he had free time, he would practice his swordsmanship and mind training on the deck of the navy.

Two days later, Tina found him and handed Ian a reward list.

There was a picture of Ace on it, and I don’t know where the navy took it. However, at this time, the navy didn’t seem to know Ace’s full name, so it just said “Fire Fist Ace!” A few words.

The wanted reward amount is as high as 90 million Baileys!

Ian looked at Tina in surprise. He didn't understand why there was such a high amount of money as soon as Ace was offered a bounty.

"He is a natural devil fruit user!" Tina explained to Ian wearing a cloak and holding a cigarette: "So the headquarters attaches great importance to it, and when I reported, I also mentioned that he has domineering domineering. After a while, the final bounty was determined to be this much! Tina was also shocked."

"Ninety million! Tsk!" Ian looked at the reward list excitedly and said, "Damn it, I really want to catch him now!"

"In that case, Tina will be happy to see it!"

"That's right!" Ian suddenly thought of a question and turned to Tina and asked: "Suppose... I mean if, if I am also wanted, how much reward will be set?"
