One Piece: The Human-Human Fruit, it makes sense to be an admiral

"Hibari, you... you can really extract the devil fruit from the esper?"

"Does that mean you can do it to all of us here with special abilities?"

For the first time, Yamato witnessed the process of extracting a devil fruit.

She also knew that Ian must have considered her one of his own, which was why he allowed her to watch from the side.

Yun Que replied with a strange expression:

"Yamato, this ability... can only be used on the dead."

Yamato's eyes widened, and he understood why Ian was attacking Charlotte Linlin.

Ian couldn't help but joke:

"Yamato, if one day you betray us."

"But I will also extract the devil fruit from you and find someone to replace you."

Yamato pouted his lips, completely ignoring Ian's threat, and retorted:

"Tsk, I wouldn't be so stupid as to betray you. The consequences would be too tragic."

"So, with all the devil fruits you got today, are you going to find that many people to become new ability users?"

"Your subordinates... probably don't have that many."

Yamato analyzed the situation at the scene and did not want to make things difficult for Ian.

It was a sideways reminder to Ian that the only people he could trust were his subordinates.

If you look for someone else, there will be great hidden dangers.

Most of Ian's subordinates have become people with special abilities.

There aren't that many candidates for creating new people with special abilities.

Ian had also thought of this, without Yamato telling him.

Most of the devil fruits obtained this time are parahuman devil fruits.

Seraphim can be created through the green blood method using existing technology.

In this way, we can avoid the restriction of human selection and at the same time make the mechanical creature absolutely loyal.

There are only a few candidates left in the team.

Every devil fruit must be absolutely effective.

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter, no need to worry."

"I will be ready for the next decisive battle."

Ian talked about the "decisive battle" in front of everyone.

Suddenly, everyone looked at them in surprise.

Apart from Yamato, no one knew what the so-called decisive battle meant.

The Four Emperors have killed two pirate forces in a row. In Ian's eyes, are there any powerful enemies left?

An enemy that can be called a decisive battle sounds like it should be of a higher level than the Four Emperors.

Does such a person really exist?

At least those subordinates who had already become navy members could not imagine who Ian was targeting.

Yamato looked at everyone's puzzled eyes, scratched his face awkwardly, and said:

"I'm sorry, I...did I say too much?"

Even if they realized it later, judging from the behavior of Ian's subordinates, they were unaware of this matter.

Ian certainly didn't mention when he would tell his subordinates.

For a real navy, making this choice would most likely lead to becoming the enemy of its former partners.

Some of these people also brought their families, teachers, and benefactors with them...

The more things are involved, the harder it is to make a decision.

No matter how you look at it, Yamato feels that he has said too much.

"It doesn't matter. Many of the people here have been following me for a long time."

"From the Seven Warlords of the Sea to Sky Island, and now to the World of Nations."

"Everyone should know that rushing into battle and launching crusades like this is not my style."

"I know my men, and they know me, too."

Ian said analytically, earning many smiling faces.

Everyone just trusted Ian and knew that he must have a reason for doing this.

No one would ask why, and they completely trusted Ian's decision.

Nami: "No matter what I do, I will first make my position clear. Vice Admiral Ian, please don't abandon me. I will always stand by you."

Peacock: "Hehe, after becoming Lieutenant General Ian's adjutant, I have absolutely no interest in other positions. Do you still need me to express my opinion?"

Skylark: "I always knew that Vice Admiral Ian had something to say, and I've been waiting."

T. Peng: "To uphold justice, I am willing to follow Lieutenant General Ian and do anything."

Duoer: "I am very powerful now. No matter what kind of enemy it is, I can definitely deal with it!"

Stussy: "Need I say more? From the day I joined, all I had was only one option."

"..."

The subordinates expressed their feelings in a timely manner to prevent Ian from thinking too much.

Ian's expression was still tense. He pointed in one direction and said:

"Don't rush to make a decision. It's not too late to make a decision after hearing the real information."

"Let's go, let's go pick up Speed, Rebecca, and Vika first."

"In front of everyone, I will talk about what I will choose to do next."

Ian continued to keep it a secret and didn't tell anyone directly.

For this kind of thing, naturally everyone should be present and wait for everyone's opinions.

The lack of any one of them is an absolute disrespect.

……

After arriving at the main text of history, Nico Robin was instantly attracted.

She immediately explained to everyone what was recorded on this historical text stone tablet.

Apart from some incomprehensible nonsense, it translates to coordinates pointing in a direction.

Nico Robin also told Ian through a message that this historical text was only part of the coordinates.

Ian listened with great interest, as if he was hearing it for the first time.

In fact, he had long been fully aware of the role of historical texts as coordinates.

The focus at this time should still be on the war in Wano Country.

Ian wasted no time and started talking from the incident in the Valley of the Gods.

In the Marine Headquarters, not many of the younger generation have heard of the God Valley Incident.

Even core disciples like Peacock and Skylark only know the surface of it.

They never knew what happened, and no one would tell them.

This is a past that we are not allowed to know, how can we tell it now?

After telling the story of the Valley of the Gods incident and the disappearance of a country in three years, everyone's expressions changed noticeably.

Everyone claims to be righteous and has always insisted on protecting the sea and protecting civilians.

Now they are suddenly told that the Navy Headquarters is an accomplice in the wanton killing of civilians.

The ideals they uphold are completely worthless in the face of the Celestial Dragons' games.

It takes some time to digest such a huge amount of information.

To say it suddenly would be tantamount to denying the ideals and beliefs that the entire navy has maintained for many years.

What is the ultimate purpose of what they insist on?

Is it just so that the Celestial Dragons can live comfortably?

Any navy that sticks to its bottom line will never accept such a thing!

Among the subordinates.

The first person to have a mental breakdown was T. Penn.

He is a man who is willing to sacrifice his life to protect innocent civilians.

T. Pengen just felt guilty for not being able to save others.

Such people join the navy with strong beliefs and ideals.

Now that the truth came out of Ian's mouth, it was a devastating blow.

"Lieutenant General Ian, is there... is there something wrong?"

"How is it possible? How could the senior officials of the Navy Headquarters agree to such a thing?"

"How could Vice Admiral Garp's title of hero come from saving the Celestial Dragons who were killing civilians!"

"It must be... not necessarily... maybe it's a mistake, right?"

T. Penn grabbed Ian's arm and shook him hard.

The painful expression made people around him feel sad.

Some questions, when asked, actually already have the answer.

I just don't want to accept reality and don't want to believe what I heard.
