The Alternatives of the Tianlong Family

"Intruders? Pirates?"

Is asked a question.

Aside from pirates, he really couldn't think of anyone else who would dare to do such a thing.

"Yes." The guard nodded.

"The Roger Pirates?"

Is asked again.

After all, he had just fought Roger not long ago. According to his route, he would arrive at the Sabaody Archipelago, and then there would be two routes: the first would be to go directly through the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, and the second would be to go through the seabed.

Just as Iss remained silent, the guard explained, "No... no, Lord Bernard Iss, it's not the Roger Pirates that's here, it's the Rocks Pirates. They've not only attacked the Holy Land Mary Geoise, but the Marine Headquarters has also been attacked at the same time."

"Rocks Pirates?"

Is was somewhat surprised by the guard's answer, as all indications suggested that the Roger Pirates had a 95% chance of being involved.

But somehow, the Rocks Pirates suddenly appeared.

"Alright, I understand. You may leave."

"You...you're not coming to the safe zone with me, Lord Bernard Issa!"

"No need."

From the guards' words and by analyzing the current situation in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, Is had already roughly guessed what was going on.

Rocks likely deployed a small squad to attack the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, while his main fighting force was probably focused on Marine Headquarters.

If the main fighting force had been stationed in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, the damage would definitely not be what it is now.

Now, Is has gained another person with super strong combat power, Acnologia, and then there's Uchiha Madara and Tatsumaki.

This lineup is more than enough to deal with a small portion of Rocks's forces.

Therefore, there is absolutely no need to go to the safe zone.

"But we can't afford to take responsibility if something happens to you."

"There's no need for you to bear this burden."

With that, Is turned around and called out to Tornado and the others, "Let's go, let's go home."

Chapter 37

As Is finished speaking, the group quickened their pace and caught up.

“Madara, let’s go back and team up to deal with Is. We couldn’t beat him on the ship,” Acnologia suggested as he walked up to Madara.

Madara Uchiha glanced at Acnologia, but perhaps because he had been tricked by him on the ship, he simply shook his head.

"For something like this, go ask Tornado."

Upon hearing this, Tornado immediately replied, "I don't have time. My eyes are almost closed right now."

“You guys can sleep after losing so many games to him in a row?” Acunorokia retorted.

"can!"

Tornado and Madara Uchiha answered in unison.

“However, I can’t guarantee what will happen if we continue playing this game,” Madara Uchiha added.

"..."

Acnologia stared speechlessly at Tatsumaki and Madara Uchiha.

"I've mastered the technique, victory is assured!"

"You're a sure winner? This game is 70% luck." Is, who was walking ahead, couldn't help but turn around and retort.

As Is finished speaking, a burst of laughter rang out from the crowd.

Seeing that Is and his party had already entered the city gate, the leading guard showed an envious look on his face.

"Oh, I really wish I could go and serve under Bernard Issain."

"Captain, what are you saying? You want to work for the Celestial Dragons??? Didn't you tell us before that it was a high-risk profession?" another guard couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, Captain, you told us before that you personally witnessed a guard being killed by a Celestial Dragon for making a small mistake."

"Shh, you guys, are you out of your minds? Keep your voices down," the guard next to him warned. After all, if they were heard, they would all be finished.

The leading guard glanced at them, then smiled faintly and said, "Yes, I did say that before, but what I said was true."

At this point, his voice lowered considerably.

"You all saw it just now, didn't you? Lord Bernard Issaint, he's different from all the Celestial Dragons. He genuinely cares for every slave around him and the bodyguards who work for him."

"To be able to serve a man like that... I feel it's an honor for me."

Upon hearing this, the guards around seemed to suddenly realize that, just as their captain had said, what Is did was almost unlike that of the other Celestial Dragons.

“You…you’re right. Compared to him, Lord Bernard Issa is indeed a very special man.”

····

Some guards who had interacted with Is began to discuss it, while others who had no interaction with him or even knew nothing about him listened intently.

"Sigh, hearing you all say that makes me want to work for him right now, but unfortunately, I'm not high enough status!"

"Yes, although I've only met him a few times, from what you've said, I feel that this man is very charming."

Ish and his companions were unaware of what the guards were discussing afterward.

Before long, they returned to their castle.

Is didn't seem to care too much about the attack.

After all, the incident occurred on the other side of Is Castle.

If they want to get over here, they have to get past the navy.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Is had already anticipated that they would basically cause some damage and then leave.

Of course, Is never intended to take on any trouble or actively drive away the Rocks Pirates, because they didn't need him at all.

Above him are the Five Elders, and above the Five Elders is Im, and they are all unmoved. So why should an ordinary Celestial Dragon bother with such concerns?

So, after returning to the castle, Isle ate and drank as usual, and his mood was not affected by the Rocks Pirates' attack.

However, just when Is thought that the matter was over, suddenly, a figure fell directly from the top of the castle, smashing a hole in it.

Smoke and dust filled the surroundings, and Is's brow twitched slightly as he looked over.

The smoke and dust gradually thinned, and Is could see the falling objects more and more clearly.

A few seconds later, Easton was stunned. Good heavens, no wonder he looked so familiar. Wasn't this the Celestial Dragon Caldean who had suffered a loss at Easton's hands last time?

However, he was in a terrible state at this moment, his face swollen like a pig's head, but fortunately he had not lost consciousness.

“I…I…Is Saint!!!” Caldean mumbled incoherently.

Is strode up to Caldean, first looked at the ceiling with a hole in it, then looked at Caldean and spoke.

"Are you... playing with human cannons???"

However, there was one thing that surprised Is: even with a huge hole smashed in the ceiling, Caldean still managed to speak with a sliver of consciousness.

"Help...me!"

It took Caldean nearly thirty seconds to utter those three words, and Is watching from the side was getting a little impatient.

Just as Is was about to ask him some questions, a burst of laughter came from above the hole in the ceiling.

"You didn't expect to see me again so soon, did you? If I remember correctly, your name is Is!"

As the voice rang out, Is raised his head again, and a familiar face appeared in his field of vision.

Yes, this guy isn't a stranger, but... Kaido, an apprentice crew member of the Rocks Pirates!!!

Chapter 38

"Kaido... Kaido???"

Is was slightly taken aback; he never expected that Kaido would actually come to him on his own initiative.

At first, Kaido thought that Is would be completely panicked when he saw this scene.

However, to his utter surprise, Is actually... actually showed a happy smile, and even seemed quite excited.

This immediately fueled Kaido's anger.

"Your bastard-like appearance is really unpleasant to look at." Kaido frowned, gripping his spiked club even tighter.

"Really? But you do look quite pleasing," Is said with a smile, his tone casual.

"Hopefully, you'll still be able to smile later."

Kaido's sharp gaze was fixed on Is, as if he had already sentenced him to death a dozen times over.

No sooner had he finished speaking than another voice rang out from the other side.

"Who did I think it was? Isn't this the guy who pretended to be dead last time? What, not satisfied with last time, want to pretend again?"

At this moment, Madara Uchiha had already walked into the hall from the other side.

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Kaido's expression instantly froze, ever since they parted ways at Sabaody Archipelago.

Sometimes, Kaido would dream of this voice, often waking up in the dark of night.

Yes, the last time Madara Uchiha left him with a deep shadow, and it's unlikely that he'll be able to shake it off anytime soon.

Kaido looked at Uchiha Madara, and the frozen expression on his face eased slightly. Then, what appeared on his face again was not fear, but ecstatic joy.

“This time, I think it’s your turn to play dead.”

Just as Kaido finished speaking, with a thud, another tall figure landed beside him.

Soon, her appearance came into view.

And she is Charlotte Linlin, one of the executives of the Rocks Pirates, with a bounty of over 20 billion.
