Amazon Lily is in the Calm Belt, and almost no pirates venture there. Given her status on the island, Xia Qi can ensure their child's safety.
"Alright, let's do as you say. Before we return to the Rocks Pirates, we'll leave the child in the care of Amazon Lily."
Li Yuan nodded, agreeing with Xia Qi's suggestion. Even if she hadn't mentioned it, he would have arranged a suitable place for the child. Growing up on Amazon Lily would indeed be ideal.
Once the Battle of God Valley was over and he established his own pirate crew with a stable territory, he would bring the child back. By then, the child could stay by his side and be nurtured by him.
After several days of sailing, Li Yuan and his crew finally passed through the Calm Belt and reached the Four Seas.
"So this is the Four Seas? Doesn't seem much different from the New World!"
Razili, who was born on an island in the New World, was seeing the Four Seas for the first time.
"The weather in the Four Seas is more stable, unlike the unpredictable weather in the New World."
"Also, the pirates in the Four Seas are generally weaker. Compared to the New World, you could even call this place a paradise."
Li Yuan chuckled.
"The Four Seas are controlled by the World Government and the Navy, so we need to be cautious while sailing. Li Yuan, you're the only one on the ship with a bounty."
"Come, let me help you with a disguise. Even if the Navy sees you, they won't recognize you."
Xia Qi said with a mischievous smile.
"A disguise? I want to help too!"
Razili, intrigued by Xia Qi's suggestion, wanted in on the fun. She had never done something like helping Li Yuan with makeup before.
"No need, I can handle a simple disguise myself."
Li Yuan didn't want the two women to do his makeup. Otherwise, his handsome image would be ruined.
He took two black mustaches, sticking one under his nose and one on his chin, and dyed his blood-red hair black.
This transformation made him look like a mature and handsome uncle, which was incredibly attractive to young girls.
In the Four Seas, although the Navy suppressed many pirates, with Rocks' rise, pirates continued to emerge.
Many people, driven by desperation or a desire for freedom and violence, chose to become pirates.
The vastness of the Four Seas, even larger than the New World, made it impossible for the Navy to completely eliminate pirates.
In fact, after Rocks' rise, the number of pirates kept increasing.
Pirates from the Four Seas would venture into the New World, and after undergoing its trials, they would join the Rocks Pirates, contributing to its continuous expansion.
"Captain, there's a large ship ahead with no flags."
On the sea, in front of Li Yuan's Infinite Pirate Ship, appeared another pirate ship.
The crew of that pirate ship, upon seeing Li Yuan's ship, looked at it as if it were a delicious meal.
In the Four Seas, a large ship like Li Yuan's, without any flags, was often a large merchant vessel.
To pirates, this was a treasure trove, as merchants were always rich.
Robbing such a ship could keep their entire pirate crew well-fed for two to three years.
"Fortune favors the Bold Pirates. Close in, boys, but don't fire. We don't want to sink it!"
The captain of the Bold Pirates said excitedly.
"Kano, handle them before the ships collide!"
Li Yuan, lounging on a deck chair, enjoying massages and being fed by Razili and Xia Qi, didn't want to move.
"Leave it to me, Senior Brother!"
"Moonwalk!!"
Kano excitedly used Moonwalk to head towards the pirate ship.
After years of training, Kano had finally grown strong.
With the Slash-Slash Fruit, his strength had skyrocketed. He mastered Moonwalk and Shave, and with the fruit's power, he could easily handle Navy Headquarters' commodores.
"Captain, he's flying towards us!!!"
A minion on the Bold Pirates' ship pointed at Kano, trembling.
"Don't be scared. Shoot him down!"
The Bold Pirates' captain slapped the minion, ordering to open fire.
"Bang bang bang!!!"
Facing the pirates' gunfire and cannon fire, Kano didn't dodge.
"Clang clang clang!!!"
Bullets couldn't penetrate Kano's blade-like body.
"Boom!!!!"
As for the cannonballs, Kano's hands turned into blades, slicing all the incoming shells in half.
Since obtaining the Slash-Slash Fruit, Kano transitioned from a single-sword style to a dual-sword style, as both his hands were blades. Not learning dual-sword style would have been a waste.
"You guys are unlucky to encounter us. Not only did you block our route, but you also dared to attack our pirate ship!"
Landing on the Bold Pirates' ship, Kano taunted them while cutting down the pirates with his blade-like hands.
The captain of the Bold Pirates, with strength barely at a captain's level, stood no chance against Kano, who had the power of a commodore.
In just a few minutes, Kano wiped out all fifty-plus crew members on the ship.
Throughout their journey, they encountered not only the Bold Pirates but also other pirate crews.
In the Four Seas, Li Yuan had no desire to take action against these pirate crews. He left it to his junior brothers to gain combat experience.
Even Barrett and Nepal joined in these skirmishes.
While sailing through the Four Seas, Li Yuan traveled almost in a straight line, reaching Asuka Island as quickly as possible to avoid any unforeseen complications.
After all, this was the Four Seas, not the New World. If discovered by the Navy and the World Government, things would become very troublesome.
"Senior Brother, we've reached Asuka Island!"
Karu said, looking through a telescope.
Having crossed the Calm Belt into the Four Seas and sailed for another half month, they finally arrived at Asuka Island.
"We're finally here?"
Li Yuan stopped his training and moved to the bow of the ship, looking at the distant island with a sense of excitement.
