Sanji shouted loudly and kicked towards Ian.
Of course, Ian couldn’t be hit by him, but Sanji was too annoying. Maybe it was because there were many beautiful women on his ship. This guy Sanji was like a cockroach, and he was the noisiest person on the ship. So after Ian dodged Sanji’s kick, he grabbed Sanji’s ankle and threw him to the side!
Plop! Sanji fell into the sea instantly…
Ian finally felt a peace of mind. He turned to look at Reiju and asked, “Is he really your brother?”
Reiju smiled knowingly, she was also relieved, feeling that at least Sanji should still be happy in the Straw Hat Pirates.
However, seeing Sanji this time was equivalent to Ian fulfilling his promise to her. So Reiju couldn’t help but wonder where she should go in the future, whether to return to the Vinsmoke family, or to take advantage of this opportunity to leave them behind…
And when she thought of that cold family, a hint of loneliness appeared on her face.
This expression was just seen by Sanji, who climbed up from the sea onto the ship.
So this guy immediately thought wrong, fantasizing that his brother-in-law was playing with his sister’s feelings, causing her to show such a lonely expression.
“Oh oh oh!” Sanji burst out again, and launched an attack on Ian as soon as he got up.
But this time, perhaps because of emotional reasons, his speed was much faster than before, forcing Ian to lift his arm to block his kick.
However, after three or four times of this kind of disturbance, Ian was also a little angry, and directly pressed Sanji into the deck!
But in fact, Ian was also measured when he took action. Although it looked like Sanji’s face had been smashed into the deck of the Going Merry, Ian knew that Sanji was okay.
Didn’t Reiju have any reaction on the side? Sanji, this idiot, was ultimately a modified human, just like Reiju!
However, just like that, Zoro and Luffy suddenly stood up. Zoro drew his sword, and Luffy made a posture ready to attack.
Perhaps because of the difference in momentum when Ian was angry just now, Zoro and Luffy felt that Ian was really going to get serious with Sanji, and Sanji was their companion, they couldn’t just watch him get beaten up by Ian.
“Oh!?” Ian was a little surprised to see the two’s posture, but soon after sensing their thoughts, he said with a playful tone, “What? Zoro, do you want a long-awaited showdown after being apart for so long?”
With a sword in his mouth and two swords in each hand, he said to Ian, “Although I really hate this cook, if someone’s going to beat him up, it can only be me!”
“That’s right!” Luffy also nodded and said, “If you beat up Sanji, then there’ll be no one left to cook for me!”
Robin listened with interest and couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Haha!” Ian also laughed. He could tell that the Straw Hat Pirates were indeed quite united, but in reality, Zoro was just taking advantage of Sanji being bullied as an excuse to want to fight him. It had been over two years since they had last fought, and this guy was probably itching to give it a try.
As for Luffy, that idiot was just a simple-minded creature. Seeing Zoro stand up, he followed up without thinking too much about it.
Chopper was held in Robin’s arms and was frightened. He thought that the two sides were really going to clash, so he tearfully called for everyone to stop.
As for Usopp, he was already lying on the ground pretending to be dead…
Only Nami could see through the situation and couldn’t help but sigh and laugh helplessly, moving to the side.
Vivi couldn’t read through the situation and, seeing Nami step back, she became a little anxious and asked Nami, “Shouldn’t we…shouldn’t we help?”
Nami held her hands and said, “No need, let them be, we can’t help much, it’s good to teach these idiots a lesson.”
As if to verify her words, Sanji also stood up. He was really fine, although his hair was full of sawdust. He coolly lit a cigarette and stood shoulder to shoulder with Luffy and Zoro.
Just like Zoro, Sanji had long wanted to have a real fight with Ian. It was a knot that was buried when they met Ian in Baratie.
The three main forces of the Straw Hat Pirates faced Ian together.
Ian turned his head and looked at Ace and Reiju. He pointed to Luffy and his two friends and asked, “I’ll beat them up, you don’t mind, right?”
“Haha!” Ace laughed and said, “I used to beat him up Luffy when we were kids!”
As for Reiju, she stood with her arms crossed and smiled without objection. She actually wanted to see what Sanji had grown into now. Does he have the capital to live as a pirate at sea?
Whether as a big brother or a big sister, the mentality toward their younger siblings is the same. They both hope to protect them and hope that they can grow.
Ian also considered it in the same way. After all, Zoro had not yet encountered Mihawk on this sea, and he did not know how many strong people there were on this sea. Even for Ian, who was overpowered, there were still people he couldn’t beat. So it would be good to let them see the power of the New World in advance, and maybe indirectly help them grow faster.
However, Ian couldn’t attack them on their small boat, so he pointed to the land next to them and signaled for the three of them to follow him.
After arriving, Robin and the rest leaned on the deck, waiting to watch the show. Usopp, Chopper, and Nami were worried and stayed on the ship.
Once on solid ground, Zoro unbuttoned his shirt to reveal his muscular upper body. He wrapped his shirt around his waist and took out a piece of black cloth, which he tied around his head. Sanji and Luffy also began to prepare themselves. As for Ian, he smiled and held the handle of his sword, waiting for them to be ready.
Although Zoro didn’t want to gang up on Ian with these two people, he knew that they wouldn’t stand a chance against him alone. They decided to attack together.
It was like a preview of the battle between Ian and another Shichibukai, Crocodile. They wanted to know what kind of strength the Shichibukai had.
“Let’s go, Luffy!” Zoro whispered, gripping his sword.
“hmm!” Luffy nodded seriously.
Seeing that they were ready, Ian waved at them, signaling for them to come at him.
This action made the three of them feel annoyed, so the next second, they attacked!
Charging from the front was Luffy! Among the three, he initiated the frontal attack, running towards Ian at high speed with his arms stretched behind him. As the distance increased, his arms grew longer.
When he reached a spot two meters away from Ian, his extended arms suddenly snapped back!
“Gomu Gomu no bazooka!”
Luffy’s hands formed a pushing motion, utilizing the tremendous elasticity to launch a powerful strike at Ian.
At the same time, Zoro bounced several times and circled around Ian’s left side. The sword on his mouth was horizontal, and his hands followed up, forming a cross shape as he fiercely slashed at Ian.
As for the last person, Sanji had jumped high into the air from the beginning, rolling like a wheel. When he reached Ian’s head, he stretched out his foot like an axe and chopped down on Ian’s head.
The three of them, one from the front, one from the side, and one from above, almost simultaneously launched a fierce attack on Ian, which appeared seamless in their coordination.
However, just as Luffy’s Gomu Gomu no bazooka was about to hit Ian, Ian also made a move!
At that moment, a strong aura suddenly erupted from Ian’s body, and just as Luffy’s Punch was about to hit Ian, it suddenly stopped.
Luffy stopped it himself, or rather, it was an emergency brake!
Because at the moment when Ian’s aura exploded, Luffy saw the fierce look in Ian’s eyes. At that moment, he seemed to see a fierce beast that was choosing its prey.
He had a premonition that if he really went ahead with his attack, perhaps his hands would be cut by Ian’s blade the next second!
