One Piece: Dream Destroyer Mentor Navy King

"You really don't need me to go?"

Dylan glanced at Tahir who came to ask for leave.

Tahir bowed slightly and said, "Although I have some differences with Boss Cat Viper due to ideological issues, he has taken good care of me since I was a child, and... this is Zou's business after all."

"Hmm..." Dylan pondered for a moment, took out a piece of paper from the drawer and tore off a corner.

"I asked Xi to make a life card for you. If you don't report back in a month, I will go to Zou to find you."

"good."

When the three of them walked out of the G5 base, Pedro and Jiebo bowed to Dylan: "Thank you very much."

Dylan nodded without saying anything.

······

1 month later.

Dylan carried Shura out of the office.

"Are you going alone?"

Shiliu and Tom stood up when they saw Dylan coming out.

They were not worried about whether Dylan could face a country alone, but the problem was that the purpose of this trip was not to "destroy the country" but to "save people."

"His life card has only shrunk, but it has not burned. It seems that he has been imprisoned. It's not a big problem. I can go alone. The New World has been turbulent recently. You should not go hunting too frequently recently. Everything will be discussed after I come back."

"learn!"

Dylan opened his palm, and in his palm a life card the size of a fingernail was swaying and flying in a certain direction.

······

Zou.

Beluga Forest.

Tahir's feet were tied with two chains and he was locked in a stone house.

Outside the stone house, Pedro sat cross-legged at the door.

"Tahir, you really can't change your mind?"

Tahir in the stone house seemed not to hear anything. He just played with the small folding fan in his hand, but his face lacked the usual elegance and composure.

Today is the one-month deadline we agreed upon... That man...

It's coming!

Outside the stone house, a look of reluctance and struggle flashed across Pedro's face.

How he wished he could support and encourage his best friend to pursue his own path and dreams just like he did when he was a teenager.

During the dozens of days of being guarded here, he wanted more than once to untie the special chains on Tahir and let him pursue his own "freedom".

but·······

For some reason this time, Boss Cat Viper and Boss Inuarashi warned him at the same time not to have any other thoughts.

Otherwise it will bring "catastrophe" to Zou.

Besides, there is that guy next to him...

Pedro looked at the Musketeer Captain Sicilian, who was sitting cross-legged on the other side.

Just as Pedro was struggling with what happened to his best friend, Sicilian on the other side of the stone gate raised his head and looked up at the sky.

"What is that?"

Inside the stone house, Tahir sighed.

Pedro also looked up.

In the sky, dark clouds have completely covered the sky above Zou, completely covering the huge body of the "Elephant Lord", as if the end of the world is approaching.

Pedro's pupils shrank as he remembered the rumors about a certain man.

Outside the White Whale Forest.

"Old cat!"

"Old dog!"

Duke Inuarashi and Shopkeeper Cat Viper looked at each other and gazed at the thunderclouds in the sky.

When they imprisoned Tahir, he told them about his January appointment with "Dark Dragon" Dylan.

So today, a cat and a dog were waiting outside the Beluga Forest.

A cat and a dog stood facing the strong wind. Behind them, the warriors of the Furry Principality were also waiting with serious expressions.

"Such a big event?"

A lazy voice sounded in the clouds.

Then a flash of lightning struck, and Dylan appeared opposite Inuarashi and Cat Viper.

"Where's Tahir?"

Even though he had followed heroes like Whitebeard, Roger, and Oden, and fought against Kaido.

At this time, Inuarashi and Cat Viper couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

After all, they are just ordinary crew members. Although they bear the name of the Nine Red Scabbards in Wano Country, what they are about to face now is a man with power like a god or a demon.

Inuarashi stared at Dylan and said solemnly, "Tahir is a member of Zou, he cannot work for the World Government!"

"reason."

Dylan looked around calmly, but did not see Tahir or Pedro.

"This is our 'tradition' of Zou!"

Cat Viper bared his fangs. He was already hot-tempered and could no longer control himself: "Humans have no right to interfere!"

"good."

Dylan dropped his eyes.

When the others heard this, they all looked surprised.

This guy is so easy to talk to? He doesn't seem to be as described by Pedro and the two bosses...

"careful!"

Inuarashi and Cat Viper shouted loudly, Inuarashi drew his sword and Cat Viper raised his trident.

"I shouldn't reason with you."

Dylan took a breath and his eyes moved: "Let me see how good the guy who once followed Whitebeard, Roger and Oden is."

bass!!

Shura drew his sword, and the black and red blade flew out in a crescent shape.

boom!!

Although the huge slash was blocked by the cat and dog.

But the power contained in it directly caused the two of them to spit blood.

Seeing this, the others stretched out their claws and prepared to rush forward.

"stop!"

"Back off!"

The cat and the dog spoke at the same time.

Inuarashi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand and said to the others: "This kind of battle is not for you to participate in. The victory or defeat has nothing to do with you..."

Dylan sneered and looked at Inuarashi. The mocking look in his eyes seemed to say: You say it has nothing to do with it, so it has nothing to do with it?

Inuarashi's breathing stagnated. Although they had never left Zou since escaping from Wano Country, they had also heard the legend of this man.

He was able to defeat the "Red Hair Pirates" who were as famous as "Whitebeard" by himself.

The clouds in the sky blocked out the sun, and Cat Viper shook his nose in frustration.

"Damn it, if there was a moon..."

"Then give you the moon!"

Dylan raised his hand and waved, the clouds above split in two, and the moon appeared above everyone's heads.

Seeing this situation, instead of feeling happy, everyone felt even more depressed.

Doesn't he care about "Moon Lion"? This man.

The cat and the dog looked at each other, then looked towards the moon.

At this point, there is no turning back!!

As the "power of the moon" was infused into the bodies of the two people, the cat and dog's bodies changed rapidly. Not only did their bodies begin to swell, but even their fur began to grow wildly and turn white.

"Are you ready?"

When the two of them had completely transformed, Dylan sneered.

Moon Leo, ordinary.

"Although a warrior shouldn't be so concerned about personal honor and disgrace, but..."

"We would also be angry if we were looked down upon like this!"

The cat and dog roared at the same time and pounced on Dylan with surging lightning.

"You're playing with thunder in front of me!?"

Dylan opened his palm forward, then closed it.

The lightning that was originally wrapped around the cat and dog's bodies disappeared instantly.

"Taste my thunder." Dylan raised his eyebrows, and a deafening roar sounded.

The thunderclouds that were originally rolling in the sky shrank for a while, and then two lightning bolts over ten meters thick fell.

The hair on the cats and dogs stood up, and the originally swift castration movement instantly stopped in mid-air.

"Innocent!"

The thunder had not yet landed on the ground, but as Dylan moved his mind, it exploded in mid-air and turned into countless tiny lightning bolts that enveloped the cats and dogs.

"Thunder cut!"

Seeing the lightning coming, the two were in mid-air with no way to avoid it, so the cat and dog used their knives and forks to chop at the lightning with all their might.

"Behead? Behead me and let me see!"

Thunder roared, and large pieces of lightning poured down from the clouds, entangled and mixed with the original huge lightning column.

The lightning that was originally scattered around and was only as thick as fingers instantly became as thick as arms.

"Let's give it a try...Jingxie!"

The lightning gathered together to form a huge ball of light.

The cat and dog's bodies trembled, and even with the blessing of the "power of the moon", they could not resist.

Hiss!!

Hiss! !

"Meow!!!!"

"Ooooooo!!!!"

Two screams came from the ball of light, and a foul smell of burnt hair wafted out.

Bang!

Bang!

The lightning dissipated.

A cat and a dog returned to their original state and fell from the air.

"Prepare for battle!!"

When the Musketeers and the Knights saw the cats and dogs being defeated, they drew their weapons. Other fur tribes also began to gather lightning, and some even began to stare at the moon, preparing to transform.

"Sa... Looks like my 'Shura' is going to drink blood today!"

Dylan grinned, and Shura seemed to sense Dylan's murderous intent and began to tremble as well.

"Dylan!"

An anxious shout was heard from inside the White Whale Forest.

With Pedro's support, Tahir ran quickly towards the battlefield.

Dylan raised an eyebrow when he saw Tahir's weak appearance.

"I'm fine. It's not them who abused me, it's me..."

Tahir came to the center of the battlefield, saluted Dylan, then turned around and looked at his compatriots and the cats and dogs that fell to the ground.

"Please give me a moment."

Dylan raised his chin and motioned for him to do as he pleased.

Tahir walked over to Cat Viper and Inuarashi and helped them up.

After the cat and dog calmed down, Tahir sat down in front of Cat Viper:

"Duke Inuarashi, Boss Cat Viper."

Seeing that the two ignored him, Tahir smiled bitterly: "I don't know what promises 'Zou' is keeping, nor do I know what kind of 'promise' our clan has made with history."

"Whether it's history or legend, it's all in the past. For me, instead of waiting for some 'person' or 'thing' to save the world, it's better to participate in it myself."

"Even if I fail in the end, even if I become a sinner in some sense, at least I have tried my best."

"The Duke and the Boss are both men who have followed Roger. Didn't Roger say, 'The freest people on this ocean are pirates'?"

The cat and dog, who had been silent, looked at Tahir in shock.

"How...did you know that?"

"Someone told me."

Tahir once overheard Dylan say this when he was evaluating Roger, and he still remembers the disdain on Dylan's face.

"Today... I will not debate with the two bosses about whether this statement is right or wrong. I just want to ask one question."

Tahir raised his head and looked into their eyes.

"Since pirates are free, why should we stop others from pursuing their dreams? If so, where does the word 'freedom' stand?"
