At the same time, on the side of the Beasts Pirates fleet, they also saw the Umbrella Corporation fleet slowly approaching.
The entire fleet instantly fell into panic.
"Jack-sama, that's the Umbrella Corporation fleet. W-what should we do now?"
"Hmph, what should we do? Of course..."
"Move closer?"
"You idiot! Do you really think I'm a fool?!"
Upon hearing his subordinate's words, Jack the Drought, who is one of the three calamities of the Beasts Pirates, wearing tusk-like ornaments on both his head and shoulders, directly punched his subordinate and sent him flying.
Then he said irritably: "Not to mention that the Umbrella Corporation is still our partner, just the boss of the Umbrella Corporation alone... He's a powerhouse on the same level as our Governor. You want me to move closer? I think you want me to die!"
As he spoke, his eyes locked firmly onto the Umbrella Corporation fleet that was approaching.
"Notify everyone below, tell them to behave themselves and not do anything that would embarrass our Beasts Pirates. Whoever disgraces us, I'll kill them. Also, report the news of the Umbrella Corporation fleet's arrival to our Governor!"
"Mr. Ian!"
Although his status as one of the three calamities of the Beasts Pirates made him a notable figure even in the New World, when facing the boss of Umbrella Corporation, Jack did not dare to be disrespectful.
After all, the man before him was a monster who had defeated an Admiral head-on as well as the captain of the Big Mom Pirates.
Especially that battle in the West Blue back then, there were rumors that if the Red-Haired Pirates' captain had not stepped in at the last moment, the captain of the Big Mom Pirates would likely have already been replaced.
Moreover, even his own boss gave this man face. As a mere calamity, what right did he have to act arrogantly in front of such a powerhouse?
Jack glanced at the child in Ian's arms and the Umbrella Corporation senior executives behind him, whom he had seen in the newspapers, and he relaxed slightly.
Although he did not know why such an important figure had come here, bringing his family along... It seemed he was not here to cause trouble for them.
However… When his gaze swept over the figures following behind Umbrella Corporation, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
One of them was clearly the princess of the Kingdom of Dressrosa, who had previously come to negotiate with them?!
Jack could not help but think of what had happened in the Kingdom of Dressrosa before.
Umbrella Corporation... No, even before Umbrella Corporation was established, the Kingdom of Dressrosa had relied on the current Umbrella Corporation senior executives to successfully drive away that clown.
Damn it, how could he have forgotten something so important?
Thinking of this, Jack fell silent for a moment, but still lowered his head and said: "My apologies, Mr. Ian. I did not know that the Kingdom of Dressrosa was under your protection. I will—"
"The Kingdom of Dressrosa is not yet under my protection."
Before Jack could finish speaking, Ian waved his hand and said calmly, "We are just here to have some fun. There is no need to worry."
Jack: "..."
Not yet means it will be in the future!
Even if not, Jack would not offend the Umbrella Corporation over such a matter. Facing a powerhouse acknowledged by his boss, unless his boss issued an order or the two sides were already enemies, how would he dare to declare war?
Moreover, what happened in the Kingdom of Dressrosa before was something he had acted on his own initiative anyway.
Therefore, Jack did not hesitate at all and said directly, "Please rest assured. I will properly restrain my members."
After hesitating for a moment, he continued: "This time, my purpose in coming here is only to capture criminals who escaped from Wano Country. I have no other ill intentions. Once we find them, we will leave immediately and absolutely will not disturb your group."
Violet: "...?!"
Hearing this, excitement immediately appeared on Violet's face. Although Ian had not intended to protect the Kingdom of Dressrosa, she was already very satisfied that the Beast Pirates could do this much.
Of course, she also understood that the reason the normally domineering Beasts Pirates were making such changes now was because of the Umbrella Corporation's arrival.
Therefore, she did not become carried away and quickly said solemnly: "The Kingdom of Dressrosa will also fully cooperate with the Beasts Pirates in capturing the criminals who have infiltrated the kingdom!"
As for Ian, he did not say much. He also understood his current status; just standing here was already enough to make all major forces treat the situation with caution.
He nodded at Jack, responded with a simple, hmm, and then allowed the fleet to enter the dock of the Kingdom of Dressrosa.
Jack also understood that it was getting late, and now was not the time for conversation.
Moreover, even if there was something to discuss, it should wait until their Governor arrived.
Therefore, he did not say much more. After pondering for a moment, he added, "I won't disturb your rest any further, Mr. Ian. I have already informed the Governor of your arrival. The governor said he will come over immediately to drink with you, Mr. Ian."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, signaling the fleet behind him to make way.
Ian simply nodded to indicate he understood, then ordered the fleet to sail directly into the dock of the Kingdom of Dressrosa.
Seeing this scene, Violet could not help but feel emotional. The Beasts Pirates' fleet, which could easily annihilate the Kingdom of Dressrosa, was now being so cautious in the face of the Umbrella Corporation.
It seemed that this time, their choice had been the right one.
The Donquixote Family, which had once occupied the Kingdom of Dressrosa, instilled fear in them and made them not even dare to resist; it was nothing more than a joke in front of the Beasts Pirates and Umbrella Corporation.
Therefore, Violet did not dare to slack off in the slightest. She hurriedly looked toward the port, and when she saw that the dock was still brightly lit even at night and the dense crowd standing there, she finally felt a bit relieved.
