8. Enter the city
After confirming his own safety, Ivan also breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Cyrus on the side: "In that case, we will prepare to enter the city." ”
In the middle of the words, Rebecca also won, as if standing behind Ivan and sticking out her tongue at Cyrus, proudly believing that it was her Prince Charming who had won.
After meeting Ivan, Rebecca's little padded jacket leaked badly.
After confirming that Doflamingo had issued a decree prohibiting the persecution of the Riku kings, Ivan and Cyrus repaired for a while, and then left the primeval forest and entered the city of Dressrosa.
Dressrosa is known as the "Land of Love and Passion". Despite its location in the Great New World of Waterways, Dressrosa itself has a very mild climate. Even if it is not carefully cultivated, there are a variety of flowers growing in the corners of the island. Walking through the crowded streets, Ivan could clearly feel the fragrance of flowers coming from the streets and alleys.
In addition to the flowers, the delicacies of Dressrosa are also a must of the Great Passage. In addition to the food and music, the sexy and hot dancing of the country's young women is a big selling point, and they are very good at dancing similar to Setti's flamenco in his previous life.
However, as others call it "the land of love and passion", the excessive attachment to love also makes the women of Dressrosa have a strong jealousy and possessiveness. As long as they are betrayed by men, they will commit terrorist acts of assassinating each other. In this process, the more beautiful the woman, the more ferocious. While love and hate are clear, emotional disputes and even deaths are also endless. Regardless, there's no denying that Dressrosa is one of the few extremely wealthy countries on the Great Shipping Route.
"Dressrosa is strong, and rightfully so!"
As if noticing Ivan's exclamation, and hiding in Ivan's backpack, Cyrus said with some pride:
"The periphery of the island in Dressrosa is full of huge mushroom rocks. These mushroom rocks defend Dressrosa, like a natural wall, and there are only a handful of places that can land on the island. Coupled with the humid and warm climate, even in the face of the siege of pirates, it can be self-sufficient! ”
"What's more, Dressrosa's most famous and popular sport is sword fighter duels! Fighting can be said to be the instinct of every Dressrosa person! Those weak pirates, when they first boarded Dressrosa, were already targeted by Dressrosa's sword fighters! ”
Hearing Cyrus's words, Ivan didn't squint, but looked around with some curiosity - although he had seen Dressrosa in both anime and manga, it was the first time he had actually walked the streets of Dressrosa like this.
The people in the One Piece worldview are outrageous in terms of height and body proportions. Just like now, Ivan clearly saw several strong men who were more than four meters tall walking on the street with a natural face...... In the previous life, just standing there was enough for everyone to pay attention to.
Rebecca was right next to Ivan. Walking on the street holding Ivan's little hand, the feeling of ignorance is very cute.
Originally, Ivan also planned to let Cyrus come down and go by himself, but Cyrus refused. And the reason for the refusal also made Ivan unable to refute - although the wanted of the Liku royal family was canceled, the wanted wanted for Cyrus was not canceled. Or, it was not Cyrus who was wanted, but the "angry thunderman".
This has led to the fact that Cyrus is still wanted...... It's still easy to work out, though.
After scavenging some money from his pursuers, Ivan went to the craft shop to sell some watercolor paints and a prosthetic leg. In just an hour's work, Cyrus limped out onto the street with his prosthetic leg.
"These watercolors are so uncomfortable to apply to your body! I can even feel them soaking through my wood core! ”
Hearing Cyrus's words, Ivan also waved his hand casually: "It's almost, special times and special circumstances...... Instead of what you're talking about, we'd better find a way to settle down. ”
To be on the safe side, Ivan carried two long knives with him. The rest of the axes and hooks were buried in the primeval jungle to prevent them from attracting the attention of those who cared about them.
Although occupied by Doflamingo, the current Dressrosa is not much dilapidated. Although it's not as bustling as in the comics, it's so loud. But except for the lack of a large number of toys on the streets, the rest of the people are a little less.
Atmosphere...... In addition to spitting on the missing King Riku, the people were still loudly celebrating Doflamingo's theft.
Because Doflamingo manipulated King Riku to commit many crimes before entering Dressrosa. This includes, but is not limited to, massacring people, exacting taxes, and extorting confessions.
These actions quickly ruined the reputation of King Riku in a short period of time, and led to the rapid success of Doflamingo's theft.
"It shouldn't be like this......" Cyrus said as he walked down the street with a somewhat gloomy expression, "King Riku has always been thinking about the inhabitants of Dressrosa...... These crimes were clearly committed by Doflamingo. ”
"Winning or losing, it doesn't make much sense to say this."
Not interested in Cyrus's words, Ivan just walked the streets and looked around.
When he first arrived, Ivan knew very well that it was more important to solve his own identity and life problems than the deep hatred between Cyrus and Doflamingo.
"It's the remnants of the royal family!!"
Holding Rebecca's hand, several voices suddenly came from the side alley.
In the blink of an eye, it was a few young people around fourteen or fifteen years old. Not very strong, wearing short clothes, with tattoos on his bare arms, he feels a little vicious, like an idle person in society.
Ivan's brow furrowed slightly. Hearing the words of the young men, Rebecca hid behind Ivan in some fear.
But things didn't stop with Rebecca's dodge. On the contrary, after hearing the words of the young man, a group of pedestrians began to gather around to watch. Although they didn't come up directly to accuse, they all gathered around and pointed at Rebecca, whispering something from time to time, and occasionally revealing a few words full of disdain and disgust.
With her head down, although Rebecca didn't speak, her whole mood began to become more and more depressed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"It's the remnants of the Liku King's family!" The young men didn't care. On the contrary, there is a bit of complacency after feeling a lot of attention.
Without giving them a chance to continue speaking, Ivan only raised his scabbard a little helplessly.
"Let me teach you how to talk to people."
