One Piece : Winged Dragons of the Beast Pirates

Yamato picked a brilliant flower with four different colors from a bush and proudly presented it to Ian. "Ian, look! What a beautiful flower!"

Ian smiled, took the flower from the girl's hand, and placed it behind her ear. "It looks even better like this."

Yamato showed no sign of embarrassment. Instead, she tilted her head with a cheerful smile, making it easier for Ian to see clearly. "Really?"

"Of course."

Ian nodded slightly.

"Hehe!"

Yamato proudly lifted her chin. "Because it's me, of course!"

Law's mouth twitched.

What's going on? What exactly are you two here for?

If you're this lovey-dovey, why didn't you get married sooner?

Law didn't realize that his cold demeanor was slowly starting to change.

At this moment,

Ian suddenly turned his head.

In the distance, the treetops swayed slightly.

"Ian?"

Yamato's body immediately tensed, her sharp golden eyes locking onto that direction.

"Huh?"

Law looked confused.

What's going on?

He didn't realize it at all.

Ian couldn't help but glance at Yamato.

She's quite sharp.

It seems like she's very close to awakening Observation Haki.

"It seems we've found it."

Ian took two steps forward and cleared his throat. "Come out. I've already seen you."

Although, his eyes hadn't actually seen anything.

Law still looked puzzled.

Seen?

What did you see?

"What? You actually found me?"

On the branch of a large tree, a small figure jumped out and landed on a nearby flower.

"Oh! This is so interesting!"

Yamato immediately shouted in surprise.

"Eh!!"

Law couldn't help but scream, "What is that?"

It was a tiny creature, only about twenty centimeters tall.

It looked fLaw, with a head much larger than its body. Its nose was sharp, like a small knife. There was a big, fLaw tail at the back, almost as large as its body.

Its round little face was tense, and in its tiny hands, it held a spear as long as a chopstick, carefully aiming it at Ian.

"Ah, so cute!"

Black Maria also gasped softly, but of course, her surprise was completely different from Law's.

"Big Brother Ian, what is this?"

Jack asked Ian, who was known for his vast knowledge.

"The Tontatta tribe, also known as the Dwarves tribe."

Ian stepped forward and looked down at the little creature, which was only slightly bigger than the palm of his hand.

"Dwarves tribe?"

Law was a bit shocked, "Aside from the giants, there's actually a Dwarves tribe in this world?"

Ian chuckled lightly.

Don't be fooled by its size. If it came to a fight, Law, you'd probably get your teeth knocked out.

Although the Tontatta tribe is small, their strength is several times that of a human, and their speed is so fast that ordinary people can't even see it with the naked eye.

Forget Law, even an average pirate wouldn't stand a chance against this tiny creature.

Hiss, come to think of it, are humans in this world kind of pathetic?

They can't compare to the Dwarves, the Fishmen, the Mink Tribe, the Giants, not to mention the Lunarians.

But fortunately, all the top-tier powerhouses in the world are human.

It's all about the numbers, kid!

"Humans! What are you doing here?!"

The little figure pointed its spear at Ian, full of alertness.

"My friend is terminally ill and about to die. I heard that Princess Mansherry from the Tontatta Kingdom has the ability of the Heal-Heal Fruit, so I came to ask her for help."

Ian spoke honestly.

"Eh?"

Law was stunned.

So honest? This was completely different from the pirate behavior he had imagined.

A princess?

Since she's a princess, there's no way she'd easily help...

"Eh! Is that so?"

The small figure's face was filled with panic. "Terminal illness? That's really bad! Come with me! I'll take you to Princess Mansherry!"

After saying that, he anxiously jumped deeper into the forest.

"Huh?"

Law felt like his jaw was going to unhinge.

What's going on here?

"Let's go, follow me."

Ian naturally moved forward.

Should we really follow? Could this be a trap?

Law had no idea.

"So, Ian, what's really going on?" Yamato was also confused.

"The Tontatta tribe is very simple and kind-hearted," Ian said. "They have no ability to detect lies and never doubt others."

"Eh—"

Black Maria narrowed her eyes and smiled. "What a cute group."

"Doesn't that mean they're easily deceived?"

Jack asked.

"That's why they've always lived in seclusion here," Ian replied.

This race really wants to venture out to the sea. If outsiders find out about them, it won't be long before they are wiped out.

Following this Dwarves, they came deep into the forest, to an ordinary open space.

"You all wait here, I'll go find Princess!"

The little one was even more anxious than Law, afraid that the patient might die from the delay. He quickly rushed into a hole beneath a large tree nearby.

Law nervously swallowed.

Hope... is it right in front of us?

"Ian."

Yamato tugged at Ian's sleeve. "There are so many."

"It's said to be the Dwarves Tribe, a whole group."

Ian looked around.

The treetops, shrubs, and grass were all subtly shaking.

Many cute little creatures were quietly observing them.

They were whispering.

"It's the Human!"

"So big!"

"What are they here for?"

To be honest, hearing so many whispers in a seemingly empty jungle was a bit scary.

Luckily, soon, the guide from the Dwarves tribe ran out from the hole in the tree. "Princess Mansherry has arrived!"

Behind him, a small girl, even shorter than the guide, emerged from the tree hole.

She was still a child by their standards.

She had thick golden hair, looking just like a doll.

Behind the Princess, there was a boy of similar size, wearing a green cap and a needle fastened to his waist.

Oh, is that Leo?

He and Princess Mansherry have been childhood friends.

Behind them was an older Dwarves wearing a crown.

"Where is the patient?"

This should be the king of the Tontatta Kingdom's Dwarves jumping onto a tree stump, shouting loudly.

"Over here."

Ian pushed Law forward.

"Hurry, hurry! Mansherry!"

The king hurriedly said, "He's going to die! Save him quickly!"

No, it wasn't that he was going to die so soon.

Ian chuckled lightly.

But truly, what a lovely group they are.

"I understand!"

The little princess nimbly jumped onto Law's shoulder. "I'll heal him."

Mansherry, the princess, was as light as a feather, like a little kitten, but at that moment, Law felt as though a mountain was pressing down on his shoulder.

It felt as though he wasn't about to receive treatment, but instead, a judgment.

Law even held his breath.

What would the result be?

"Healing Tears."

The little princess cried, her tears slipping from her eyes and landing on Law's neck.

The warm tears made Law's skin immediately break out in goosebumps.

"The ability is already taking effect."

Ian said, "Law, how do you feel?"

Law froze for a moment, then quickly began to frantically check himself.

The White Lead disease, of course, had many external symptoms.

Then.

Law froze completely.

Everyone quietly watched him.

Immediately, two streams of tears flowed freely from the young boy's eyes.

Ian's lips curled into a smile.

It seemed he hadn't come to the wrong place.

Then.

He looked at the small people around him.

What should be done about these kind-hearted, cute Dwarves?

At the same time, in Dressrosa, on the King's Plateau, inside the royal palace.

In the reception hall, two kings were chatting happily, with a serious-looking man standing guard beside them.

Suddenly, a guard hurriedly ran in, "Your Majesty! King Riku! A pirate ship has been spotted off the coast of Greenbit!"

"A pirate ship?"

King Riku's face changed dramatically, and he immediately stood up. "On the coast of Greenbit?"

Greenbit... that was the home of the Tontatta clan!

This was bad. They were in danger!

"Which pirate crew is it?"

King Riku quickly asked.

"We're not sure, the pirate flag wasn't raised, so it's unclear."

The guard quickly replied.

King Riku gritted his teeth, then made an immediate decision. He turned to the guard beside him, "Kyros, come with me to Greenbit!"

He looked at the other king, who seemed a bit bewildered. "Elizabello, sorry, I must leave for a moment."

"Don't be so polite, King Riku!"

The king named Elizabello stood up, laughing heartily. "We're friends! Since there are pirates involved, I can't just stand by! It's time for my King's Punch to show its power!"

"Then I'll leave it to you!"
