gh the firewall, said some anger and disappointment.

His mission had been to capture Straw Hat Luffy, and he wouldn’t have followed him into the Grand Line otherwise.
Now, seeing the opportunity to capture the Straw Hat alone and separated from his crew, Smoker couldn’t help but feel that Ian and Ace’s interference had thrown a wrench in his plans.

Ian also heard Smoker’s shout, but he didn’t pay attention to him, taking Luffy all the way, swiftly disappearing from view as they vanished down the street.

He knew that Luffy couldn’t be captured here, for not only was he Ace’s brother, but also Dragon’s son.
Ian couldn’t let Luffy slip through his grasp, not when Dragon was his superior.

As they turned a corner, Luffy regained consciousness.
He struggled in Ian’s grasp, his voice filled with confusion as he shouted, “Hey! Who are you? Where are you taking me?”

Ian was just about to speak and answer him, but as he accidentally looked to the right, he suddenly stopped.

Because on the street to the right, Ian saw several people… They were the members of the Straw Hat Pirates who had just finished shopping and put on desert clothes.

Seeing that Luffy was grabbed by the collar with one hand, while Luffy was not able to resist at all, Sanji and Zoro were both dumbfounded.
After seeing Ian’s appearance clearly, Sanji dropped the cigarette in his mouth!

“You…you…”

Sanji pointed at Ian, trembling in horror.

Zoro also looked at Ian in disbelief.
He never thought he would see his big brother in this place and that his captain would be caught by him!

“Ah! It’s Zoro!” Luffy, seeing Zoro and Sanji at this moment, happily waved and shouted to them, “Zoro, Sanji! Hurry up and free me, I’ve been caught by this weirdo!”

Ian had been overjoyed at the prospect of reuniting with his long-lost brother, Zoro, but before he could utter a word, Luffy had dubbed him a weirdo.
Ian’s countenance grew dark and with a swift motion, he delivered a powerful punch to Luffy’s head.

“Bra… brother Ian!”

At this time, Chopper also recognized Ian and immediately put down what he was holding.
He ran up and threw himself at Ian’s thigh.

Although he had only just met with Ian recently, when he saw Ian again, Chopper started crying a lot.
He lifted his head and said: “Ian big brother, I… I have also become a pirate! I also have companions, I have become a brave man!”

“Haha!” Ian couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Chopper’s appearance, and patted his head, “Good job, Chopper, didn’t I tell you that you would find your companions?”

“Mmm!” Chopper tightly hugged Ian’s thigh and wouldn’t let go.

Ian could only let Chopper hang like this, and gestured to them, saying, “This is not a place to talk, where is your ship? Navigator Miss!”

Navigator Miss, of course, refers to Nami, who is behind them in a beautiful western dancer’s outfit.

At this time, Nami finally recognized who that guy was and couldn’t help but be surprised, covering her mouth.

It was not Nami’s fault that she failed to recognize Ian upon their reunion.
After all, it had been over two years since their last encounter and Ian had undergone a significant transformation, primarily in terms of his demeanor.
Nami, however, was not to be blamed for her confusion.

As Ian scanned the crowd, he couldn’t help but notice a beautiful young woman and a curly-haired old man.
The woman, like Nami, was dressed as a western dancer, her striking blue tresses tied in a ponytail cascading down her back.
Ian recognized her as none other than the princess of Alabasta, Vivi.

Despite Crocodile’s absence from Baroque Works, the organization continued to function seamlessly.
In fact, Ian’s and Crocodile’s participation in the Alabasta war had only served to deepen the royal family’s suspicions about the latter.
Princess Vivi, who had infiltrated the organization as an undercover agent prior to the events, was now reunited with Luffy and his crew.

However, there was one key difference in this encounter.
Igaram had not met his demise as he had in the original timeline, due to the fact that Ian had abducted Robin before he could be eliminated.
It was a surprise to see him standing alongside Princess Vivi.
