Pirates: The Ruler of Flames - The Grand Line of the Flame Emperor

Drum Kingdom

At daybreak, four navy warships and one World Government warship quietly appeared on the sea at the border of the Drum Kingdom and slowly sailed towards the Drum Kingdom.

"Lieutenant General Tsuru, something seems to be wrong."

On the leading warship, Huoshaoshan looked a little strange, looking in the direction of the Drum Kingdom through a telescope, and said to Vice Admiral He. "Yeah."

Lieutenant General He nodded, and everyone could obviously notice it.

It was really too quiet. You know, the Drum Kingdom was also a country after all, and a famous medical power in the Grand Line. There should be quite a few people living there. But now, the entire port and the island were quiet, as if everything on it was completely frozen by ice and snow.

At this time, Spandine next to him spoke, raised the corner of his mouth, and said arrogantly to the man next to him who was wearing a black suit, tie, a black top hat on his forehead, and a pair of black glasses with particularly small frames.

"Bulari, let the navy see our capabilities, see what's going on on the island, and find traces of the Sky Pirates." "Understood."

The man named Burari, like a gentleman, pulled his black politeness, then raised his head, and

Purple lines like ripples appeared on the glasses, constantly shrinking and expanding. "What is this?"

Seeing this scene, everyone was a little curious. Spandine said boastfully.

"Bulari is a user of the Vision Fruit. As long as he activates his ability, he can see things that ordinary people cannot see. With farsightedness, he can see a range of 2,000 kilometers from his point of view. With nearsightedness, he can see things 100 times smaller than a needle tip. This is an elite that the World Government has sent out specifically to capture the Sky Pirates."

This really surprised everyone. "This ability is really suitable."

He said meaningfully, after all, the system exists for spies and intelligence.

Spandine laughed triumphantly.

At this time, Brali's ability also ended, the ripples on his eyes disappeared, and he said something strange.

"It's so strange. Except for a man sitting alone in the village at the port, all the other people on the island have disappeared." Seeing another opportunity to show off in front of the navy, Spandine became even more excited and said to another man beside him. "In that case, just catch that man, An."

The man named An looked very thin and noodle-like, with golden hair like cut saw teeth. He stuck out his long tongue and said with a smile.

"Leave it to me."

As soon as the words fell, the man named An twisted his body and slapped the air around him. In front of everyone's surprised eyes,

In the light, a door appeared in the air. As the door opened, a green alien space appeared inside. An's whole body went in like a noodle and disappeared in the alien space.

It was just a few seconds, and when An's figure appeared again, a burly man in a green coat was thrown out by him.

Dalton looked at the many people who suddenly appeared in front of him with some surprise and nervousness.

Just now, he was alone at the port, looking towards the sea, when he felt something grabbing him from behind. Then the world in front of him changed, and he found himself in a strange place.

"Who are you? Are you from the Drum Kingdom?"

The people on the warship did not give Dalton time to adapt, and Vice Admiral Tsuru asked directly.

Although Dalton didn't quite understand the situation, he still recognized the navy uniforms of the people in front of him.

Spandine asked impatiently.

"Hey, stop talking nonsense and tell me, are the Sky Pirates and the descendants of the devil on your island?" Dalton's expression became a little dejected when he heard it, and he lowered his head and said sadly.

"You are too late, they have already left"

"What!!! What the hell is going on? Where did they go?"

Spandine grabbed Dalton by the collar and asked anxiously.

Seeing this, He reached out to stop Spandine and said to comfort Dalton in front of him.

"Calm down, Spandine. Don't be nervous. Tell me, what's going on? Why is there no one on the island? Where are the others?"

Seeing the obviously righteous Crane, who should be the highest-ranking officer of the navy, Dalton said slowly, "Everyone is running for their lives."

"Run for your life!?"

"Well, yesterday, after the terrifying monster Douglas Barrett, whose bounty was as high as 1.8 billion berries, appeared on the island, a message spread that the pirate named Douglas Barrett wanted to have a life-and-death battle with the Sky Pirates. So, yesterday

That night, everyone fled, and now I am the only one left in the entire Drum Kingdom." He frowned when he heard this.

"Didn't you just say that the two pirates had already left? If that's the case, what are the civilians on the island still afraid of? Why are they running away?"

Hearing this question, Dalton's face showed a very painful expression, and suddenly manly tears seeped out of his eyes. He covered his eyes with his hands and wailed.

"That's how it should be, but our king was the first to abandon his country and his people, so" "!!!"

Everyone was stunned.

"What's going on?"

Next, through Dalton's narration, everyone knew the reason of the matter.

It turned out that yesterday, when the news first came out, although everyone was panicked, no one wanted to abandon their country and flee. However, when everyone was uneasy, the king of the Drum Kingdom did not stand up to stabilize everyone.

Instead of being in the same boat, he took the lead and fled here, abandoning his country. Dalton tried every means to persuade him, but the king would not listen.

The king, who had already lost two sons, no longer cared about anything. He only wanted to save his own life. This instantly triggered a chain reaction, from the royal family, soldiers to ordinary civilians.

So, last night, all the civilians in the entire Magnetic Drum Kingdom fled.

Dalton was the only one left in the entire kingdom, quietly guarding the port and his country.

Perhaps they would come back when it was safe, but just one day had passed and the things that Dalton had protected all his life and the firm beliefs in his heart were ruthlessly destroyed twice by the prince and king of this national team. One of them was the king he had always respected. This made his world full of pain and his beliefs completely collapsed.

At this moment, even though the several navy officers present were high-ranking officials and had seen countless great men, they still felt admiration for a man who loved his country so much.

Lieutenant General He said with even more appreciation.

"You're a great man, aren't you Dalton? Are you interested in joining the Navy?"

Dalton looked at He who invited him with some surprise. At that moment, he was indeed shaken, but finally shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I'm the captain of the guard of this country. Unless this country no longer exists, protecting this country is the only meaning of my existence."

"I see!"

He sighed with some regret.

At this time, Spandine was already extremely anxious.

"Hey, Vice Admiral Tsuru, now is not the time to talk about this. Hey, when did they leave? Which direction did they go?"

"Sorry, I don't know. They left quietly. Everyone was busy escaping at that time and no one noticed them." "What? Vice Admiral Tsuru, you are a bunch of useless people. What should we do now? Can Brali find any trace of the Sky Pirates?"

Brali hurriedly activated the ability of his fruit, trying to find the trace of the Sky Pirates, but even though his ability was great, the sea was too vast, and he could not find anything in such a large area.

At this moment, he seemed to have discovered something and shouted to everyone in surprise, "There seems to be something wrong with the fish in the sea."
