Because of the Heavenly Tribute, Mio had to speed up and move towards the destination.
Fortunately, he would still pass Varu Island on the way, so he could go up and see it.
After one day.
Evening.
Mio's ship approached the port of Varu Island.
At a glance, he could see a pirate ship in front of him. Every pirate ship had many pirates on it.
After all, if there was no one to guard the ship in such a place, the ship would definitely be gone by the time they come back.
"Warwick, just stay on the boat, and kill anyone who comes up." Mio ordered Warwick.
After getting Warwick's response, he took Erica and left. He set foot on Varu Island, and walked towards the town not far in front.
Along the way, many pirates could be seen.
Some were fierce, some were gentle.
Some pirates turned their eyes towards Mio and Erica, but then looled somewhere else again.
They felt that Mio and Erica were not easy to provoke.
The two of them just walked into the town and saw two groups of pirates fighting on the road ahead.
From time to time, blood spattered and spilled on the ground.
There were many other pirates onlookers around, and some pirates even shouted loudly, "Go on, don't be afraid, I have bet half a million on your win, don't be afraid!!"
Obviously, these pirates had long been accustomed to seeing battles, and were even using other people's battles to make money.
"It's really lively." Mio sighed and moved on.
He looked around for a tavern. He wanted to buy some alcohol before leaving.
Erica also looked around curiously. The tentacles under her cloak swayed lightly.
Her brows wrinkled lightly, and she softly said, "Erica doesn't like this place."
"Huh? Why?" Mio heard the words and looked at Erica curiously.
"A lot of people are having bad ideas about master." Erica said seriously.
She looked in one direction after another, watching the people who had put their eyes on Mio.
"So that's it." Hearing this, Mio couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
Then, he rubbed Erica's head and said lightly, "Don't worry, if those people really dare to make a move, they will only suffer."
"Yeah." Erica nodded.
The two quickly found a tavern and walked in.
Dozens of pirates gathered in the tavern, and the tavern was extremely lively.
After Mio and Erica walked in, they immediately attracted the attention of many people.
One of the burly pirates stood up, frowned slightly, and shouted directly, "Hey, this is our territory, get out of here quickly."
"I'll buy some rum and go." Mio said lightly.
The burly man was taken aback for a moment, and then he became angry.
He didn't seem to expect Mio to be so unaware. He was ready to pull out the weapon behind his back, and teach Mio a lesson.
But in the corner of the tavern, a slender man who was holding two hot girls in his arms slowly spoke, "Hey, let them buy the rum, and you guys, leave as soon as you finish."
This person was the boss of these guys. He had come to this island just to relax, and not to cause trouble.
Of course, the main reason was that he felt that the two guys who came in were a bit dangerous.
Hearing what his boss said, the burly man suddenly let out a cold snort of disdain.
"Since the boss has spoken, I'll let you go. Get out when you finish buying."
After speaking, the burly man sat down, picked up the rum in front of him, and drank again.
Mio shrugged. He brought Erica to the bar, and said directly, "Bring me two barrels of rum."
Behind the counter was an old man. He nodded after hearing what Mio said.
He immediately asked the young man next to him to bring the rum, and he reminded Mio in a low voice, "Young man, these people belong to the monitor lizard pirate group. After buying the rum, leave as soon as possible, otherwise there will be accidents."
It seemed that this old man had a good heart. However, Mio was suddenly stunned.
"Monitor Lizard Pirate Group?" Mio asked after hesitating for a while.
The old man was also stunned, but he nodded, "Yes, they are the monitor lizard pirate group that has a bounty more than 30 million. I heard that they are planning to go to the Grand Line recently."
"Well, thanks a lot." Hearing this, Mio nodded and didn't speak any more, but his eyes suddenly flickered.
The Monitor Lizard pirate group, he had seen them on the bounty order before.
The captain was a guy with a Devil fruit ability. He had not eaten an ordinary Zoan devil fruit, but an ancient species among Zoan.
In North Blue, by virtue of this devil fruit ability, Anderson is regarded as a small celebrity, and is followed by many people.
However, Mio didn't want to leave this tavern like this.
As for why...
He wanted to kill Anderson.
He wanted to see what genes he would get if he killed a person with Devil fruit ability.
Would it be the same as ordinary people? Or...
He originally planned to go to Grand Line to test this. After all, the people with Devil fruit ability are much more common in Grand Line.
Although they can also be found in North Blue, they are very rare. He did not expect to encounter such a person like this.
At this point, he is somewhat similar to the protagonist Luffy in the original book.
If there was no reason, he would feel a little guilty to attack for no reason.
But the difference between him and Luffy is that he knows how to proactively find reasons.
Thinking of this, Mio turned and walked towards Anderson step by step.
This slender figure, who did not seem be strong, hugged two chicks at this time and molested them.
From time to time, he asked the two hot girls to feed him, with smiles all over his face.
Several other men were sitting next to Anderson.
At this moment, one of them saw Mio walking by, and immediately got up and said unhappily, "Boy, what are you doing here?"
Hearing the sound, Anderson also frowned and looked over, looking upset.
'This kid did not leave after buying the rum. What does he want to do? He still wants to stay and drink?'
However, the next scene made Anderson stand up abruptly with an angry expression on his face.
Looking at the strong man in front of him, Mio directly pulled out the weapon on his waist and slashed.
A cold glow appeared.
A deep wound suddenly appeared on the strong man's chest. Blood spattered, and his sturdy body suddenly fell to the ground.
"Why are you talking so loudly?"
"I hate others yelling at me the most in my life." Mio said with an 'angry' expression.
As for the truth...
Only God knows.

"What are you doing?" Anderson roared angrily.
His hands changed in an instant, and scales and sharp claws emerged.
"Killing him, what else did I do?" Mio shrugged while holding his sword.
"Damn it, kill him!" Hearing this, Anderson groaned directly.
He didn't want to cause trouble, but when someone killed his subordinate, Anderson suddenly stopped thinking about it. After a while, he turned into a lizard Man.
He was covered with scales and looked terrifying.
His originally slender body appeared extremely strong at this time, and a thick and long tail appeared behind him.
"Hahaha, it's time to see blood again."
"Go to hell kid."
"Kill!"
The pirates around who were already drunk heard their boss's order at this time, and suddenly laughed.
They drew out their weapons and rushed towards Mio, some even took out their muskets and fired at Mio.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out. Two cold lights flashed by, and the bullets were split in half in mid-air and fell on the ground.
The waved the sword, and blood splashed. A pirate suddenly fell to the ground, blood splashing.
Erica's slender, white hands were holding two swords, and she stood behind Mio. She didn't speak, and just stood there quietly.
In just a few breaths, several pirates died in Erica's hands.
This caused the other pirates who were rushing towards Mio to stop. They gulped, and a look of fear appeared in their eyes.
When Anderson saw this scene, his pupils couldn't help shrinking.
He showed a look of jealousy, but then he bacame even more angry.
"You're very powerful, but you'll still die!"
Since getting a Devil Fruit ability, Anderson had never lost. Anyone who opposed him was torn apart by him, even Marine.
At this time, he was burning with anger, and there was no fear in his eyes. He only wanted to rip the two guys in front of him.
Anderson rushed towards Mio, and swept across the air with his claw.
Mio gripped his sword firmly and said slowly, "Leave this guy to me. Handle the others, Erica."
"Erica will definitely protect master." Erica's serious voice came out under her cloak.
With a grin, Mio stopped speaking. He waved his sword forward, and blocked Anderson's attack.
Mio opened his mouth and couldn't help sighing, "It's worthy of being am ancient Zoan devil fruit. The power is really terrifying."
Mio couldn't help being surprised by Anderson's strength, but he was not worried.
Although Anderson has a devil fruit ability, he has obviously not developed his devil fruit abilities to a high level.
Otherwise, he would not be able to withstamd Anderson's blow.
After all, Mio's strength is good, but that's only in North Blue.
And in North Blue, if he was not considered top-notch, he would not dare to contact Doflamingo.
Warwick and Erica were also there. If he was alone, Mio would not contact Doflamingo.
At this time.
The corner of Mio's mouth raised, and he swung his sword with his right hand.
"One sword style! Shadow attack!"
At full speed, Mio's figure approached Anderson like a ghost.
The swing of the sword in his hand formed a crescent-shaped slash, and the black sword aura burst out.
Indeed, like the name, it was a shadow attack.
"Get away!" Anderson roared and swept across with his claws.
But the next moment his eyes suddenly lost all color. He quickly backed up a few steps, and then lowered his head to look at his paws.
At this time, a hole was present in his paws, and blood kept pouring out.
"It seems that your defense is not strong enough to block my slash." The corners of Mio's mouth raised, and after a chuckle, he attacked again.
He slashed again, and a sword aura burst out.
Anderson hurriedly evaded, and the slash fell on the wall of the tavern. The wall was immediately cut open.
A loud noise erupted, and the wall of the tavern was destroyed, attracting the attention of many pirates outside the tavern. His eyes turned towards this side.
After Erica glanced at Mio, she slowly waved her right hand and slashed out.
A silver sword aura erupted, and a terrible slash was formed immediately, and it fell on the ground outside the tavern.
A deep crack emerged, and Erica's soft voice sounded with firmness, "Don't step in here, or you will be killed!"
One of Anderson's men in the tavern swallowed his saliva. He was frightened by Erica's strength.
In addition, his boss was also injured. He couldn't help but want to leave.
When he looked outside the tavern, he moved lightly, preparing to leave secretly, and then take advantage of the chaos to return to the ship to take away some of his boss's treasures.
But just as his body moved, a sword aura slashed over.
The pirate's head and body were separated suddenly, and his body fell to the ground.
"Tch, what a terrifying person."
"She seems to be a little girl judging from her voice, hehe, but her strength is really terrifying."
"It seems that I can only watch the excitement. I originally planned to see if I could pick up something but now it seems impossible."
Many pirates outside the tavern, who were watching laughed.
Their eyes shone brightly, and they finally gave up the idea of taking advantage of the chaos.
They originally wanted to take advantage of the two fighting. If they had an opportunity, they would not hesitate.
They wanted to take the lives of the two who were fighting, and then directly take their head to the Marine Base to receive the bounty.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in this world.
But now, they had all given up on this idea and only watched the excitement.
Although Erica's voice sounded soft and weak, just now she was completely decisive.
"Damn it."
Seeing that one of his subordinates was killed, and the other subordinates did not dare to make the slightest move, Anderson was furious.
He immediately roared, "You idiots, if you don't make a move, I'll tear you apart."
Hearing this, the surrounding pirates suddenly hesitated.
They followed Anderson, and naturally knew that Anderson was cruel. After hesitating for a while, some pirates gritted their teeth and rushed over.
But just a few steps out, Erica directly swung her sword and beheaded them mercilessly. With their strength, they had no resistance in front of Erica.
"Don't be distracted, keep fightning." Mio shouted at Anderson dissatisfiedly.
He waved his sword and rushed directly. He slashed out, releasing a sword aura.
Anderson couldn't escape, he could only grit his teeth and block. His sharp claws swept across, and he barely blocked Mio's blow.
Then he let out a gruesome roar and the thick tail behind him swept towards Mio.
Wherever he went, tables and chairs shattered and walls collapsed.
The excitement in Mio's eyes flashed, and with a slight leap, he avoided the sweep.
He didn't have the idea of quickly finishing this battle.
Instead, he wanted to fight Anderson a little longer and gain more combat experience.
And for some reason, the longer he fought, the more excited he got, and he wanted to fight Anderson more and more
Perhaps this was related to the ability he had acquired at the beginning.
