One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 233 Strange Thoughts
"Humph!!"

Just as Li Yuan was staring in a trance, he heard Tian Yueshi's jealous voice, and then his arms were embraced into a deep harbor.

Tian Yueshi looked coldly at the ragged mermaid girls in front of him who were trying to seduce Li Yuan.

If Tian Yueshi's fighting power wasn't that strong, she would have wanted to rush up and knock down these shameless and unscrupulous mermaids.

"Ahem, you guys can have fun on Fishman Island, but don't cause any serious damage."

Seeing Tian Yueshi's protective look, Li Yuan said something to Barrett and others behind him, and then took Tian Yueshi and flew directly past the many mermaid girls blocking the way ahead and arrived at the street of Fishman Island.

"Barrett, Ashura Boy, come on, I'll take you out to play!"

After seeing Li Yuan leave, the fishman Jellal took the blushing Barrett and Ashura Boy off the boat, and promised that he would definitely make Barrett and Ashura Boy satisfied!
Barrett and Ashura Douji were also very interested in that aspect, so even though they blushed, they still followed Jellal firmly.

As a cadre of the Infinity Pirates, how could he be outdone by a captain?
"Li Yuan, that bubble can actually make people fly, let's go buy one too!"

"Huh? Such a cute cake, I love it so much!"

"Wow, there's a circus performance. Let's go check it out!"

"."

After getting rid of the group of enthusiastic and lovely mermaid girls, Li Yuan and Tian Yueshi started strolling around the Fishman Island.

It was also Li Yuan's first time to come to Fishman Island, so he felt curious about everything here, so he happily strolled around here with Tian Yueshi.

"Sir Li Yuan, I am Neptune, the king of Fishman Island. I have prepared a banquet in the palace. Please come and join us."

However, before Li Yuan and Tian Yueshi had been strolling around for long, Neptune came over.

"Let's go to the Dragon Palace on Fishman Island. It's the most beautiful place on Fishman Island."

Li Yuan said while looking at Tianyue beside him.

"Well, I also want to see what the Dragon Palace looks like."

Tian Yueshi knew that Li Yuan had something important to do, so she didn't have any temper and just followed Li Yuan.

"Neptune, what's that doing?"

However, when Li Yuan walked to a square, he saw a mermaid with golden hair giving a speech very hard.

However, not many people listened to her speech, and many people even looked at her with disgust.

This is not what Li Yuan paid attention to. He discovered that the fishman had a special kind of observation Haki, which could affect other people's emotions.

"That's my princess, Otohime. She's promoting some of her own ideas and ideals. I'll take her with us back to the Dragon Palace to attend the banquet."

As he spoke, Neptune walked over. After seeing Li Yuan, Yiji stopped her speech and went back to the Dragon Palace with Neptune and the others.

The Dragon Palace is very luxurious and beautiful, giving a feeling of an underwater world.

At the banquet, piles of delicious and unique food were served, a band played wonderful music around, and beautiful mermaid girls danced to liven up the atmosphere.

"Sir Otohime, I just saw you giving a speech in the square, expressing your ideals. I didn't hear your speech just now. Can you tell me about it?"

Li Yuan looked at the princess Yi Ji in front of him curiously and asked.

At the same time, there was a very strange doubt in my mind. Otohime was a member of the goldfish tribe and was about 2 meters tall.

Neptune is a coelacanth and is about 12 meters tall.

How did the two of them get together and have a child?
And the eldest son, Shark Star, was born to a shark mermaid, who grew up to be about 6 meters tall.

The second son, Huangxing, is a member of the oarfish mermaid family. When he grows up, he will be about 5 meters tall.

The third son, Fanxing, is a red sunfish mermaid. When he grows up, he is more than 4 meters tall but less than meters tall.

The fourth daughter, Shirahoshi, is a giant mermaid. She is almost 16 meters tall at the age of 12.

Li Yuan couldn't understand what was going on. How did Yiji achieve such a great figure?
However, Li Yuan didn't want to ask about such things, so he didn't ask in the end.

"My ideal is to allow the fishmen and mermaids on our Fishman Island to coexist peacefully with humans and live together on land."

"For this purpose, I have also sought signatures from the people on Fishman Island who share the same wish as me."

"Then I will take these signatures to the residents on land, the navy, the world government, and even the Celestial Dragons, hoping to get their signatures as well, and live in peace with us."

Yiji seemed to sense that Li Yuan was really willing to listen to her wishes, so she began to talk incessantly about her ideals and wishes, as well as her various ideas for realizing these wishes.

She thought of Li Yuan's identity, his current influence and strength. If she could get Li Yuan's support, then her dream might come true, so she spoke more and more vigorously.

But to Li Yuan, it was just two words: naive; three words: too naive; four words: extremely naive!

"Otohime, you don't have to tell me that your wish is impossible to fulfill!"

"Your idea is too naive!"

Li Yuan interrupted Yi Ji before she finished speaking. Otherwise, if she continued, he felt that Yi Ji could speak for half an hour. He didn't know how many years she had spent honing her speaking skills.

"I will work hard!"

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Yiji's smile disappeared and she fell into a state of loss, as if she was possessed by a negative ghost. But she soon cheered up, just as if the negative effect of the negative ghost disappeared, and she regained her vitality.

"Mr. Li Yuan, may I ask why this is impossible?"

Neptune loves his wife very much. Although he thinks Otohime's wish is naive, he silently supports her behind the scenes.

"Because the power of Fishman Island is too weak, it is impossible for them to coexist with humans on an equal footing. Since they are not coexisting on an equal footing, there can be no peaceful coexistence!"

"What's more, humans are divided into many categories, such as kingdoms, navy, pirates, etc. Humans will not truly coexist peacefully, but wars often occur."

"You said that humans can't coexist peacefully with each other, so how can humans and fishmen coexist peacefully?"

Li Yuan couldn't help but laugh. In this world, humans are the most thoughtful race. How could they possibly coexist peacefully with other races?

He remembered very clearly what his ancestors said: Those who are not of my race must have different hearts!

“Is it really impossible to achieve?”

Upon hearing this, Otohime once again fell into a negative ghost state.

"Although we can't coexist peacefully, as you said, living on the same land as humans is still possible."

Li Yuan smiled.

"How can it be done?"

As Li Yuan changed the subject, Yiji instantly recovered from her passive ghost state.

"Some of the fishmen and mermaids on Fishman Island can be transferred to the Infinite Sea. I will give you an island to live on there."

"As a reward, I will recruit a group of fishmen to form a fishman fleet to fight for the Infinity Pirates, and this fishman fleet will be led by Jellal."

"At the same time, Fishman Island will also become the territory of our Wuji Pirates. We will send people to guard Fishman Island to prevent those foreign pirates and slave-hunting groups from messing around."

Li Yuan smiled.

"That's great, Lord Li Yuan. Your suggestion is great!"

"We will post the notice tomorrow. I believe that many fishmen and mermen will be willing to live on land."

Yiji said happily after hearing Li Yuan's words.

The fishmen and mermaids on Fishman Island are very eager for sunshine, so they often risk their lives to swim out of Fishman Island, just to feel the warmth of the sun and the caress of the sea breeze for themselves.

If there was an island on the sea for them to live on, and a powerful force to protect them so that they would not be harmed by the slave-hunting groups, it would be like a second home for them, the fishmen and mermaids.

"By the way, I heard that there is a jade box on Fishman Island that has been passed down for many years. I am very curious about it. I wonder if you can give it to me."

Li Yuan suddenly remembered the murderous medicine in the original book. Li Yuan was very interested in this kind of medicine that could temporarily increase strength.

"The jade hand box? We in the Dragon Palace haven't opened it for many years. I don't know what's stored inside. If Lord Li Yuan wants it, I'll give it to you."

Neptune agreed without thinking. After all, the jade box was just a symbolic thing to them, so he just gave it to them.

The efficiency of the Dragon Palace is still quite good, and Fishman Island is not big. After the announcement from the Dragon Palace was issued early the next morning, almost all the fishmen and mermaids on the entire Fishman Island knew about it.

In order to promote the cooperation with the Wuji Pirates, Princess Otohime once again gave speeches in various places on Fishman Island to persuade more people to live on the islands in the Wuji Sea.

She even said that she would set an example and live on the island given by the Wuji Sea for a period of time to prove that this was true and not a deception by the Wuji Sea Group!

"Otohime, I absolutely do not agree with you going with the Promise Pirates. If anyone is going, it should be me, the king!"

Because of this, Neptune, as the king and husband, had a heated argument with Princess Otohime.

How could he possibly let his wife leave Fishman Island and go to the territory of the Promise Pirates?

Although the Infinity Pirates have cooperated with Fishman Island, it was the first time after all, and the Infinity Pirates are pirates after all, so he didn't feel at ease letting Otohime go there.

"No, Neptune, you can't go over there. You are the king of Fishman Island, how can you leave Fishman Island!"

"Also, you are a sea knight, very powerful. Even if you come back alive and safe, it doesn't mean anything!"

"Only if an ordinary mermaid like me can live there and come back safe and sound, that will prove that everything the Wuji Pirates said is true."

“Neptune, you have to believe me, this is an opportunity for Fishman Island. You know how much benefit it will bring to our Fishman Island once it succeeds, so we must seize this opportunity this time!”

Otohime retorted.

"You can go, but you must bring guards with you. This is my bottom line!"

Neptune looked at the determined look on his wife's face and couldn't help but soften his heart and agreed.

He has always loved his wife very much. He would satisfy any request from her. Even if it was something ridiculous, he would choose to believe his wife.

"Don't worry, Neptune. Li Yuan didn't lie, and I believe what he said is true."

Otohime finally showed a smile on her face.
