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

Chapter 234: The Wuji Pirates' Way of Recruiting Fishmen
"It's ridiculous that the Kingdom wants us to live in the pirates' territory!"

"Yeah, will we still be free if we go to the pirates' territory? We will be sold to slave traders. I will never go there!"

"Resolutely resist the Wuji Pirates. Pirates' words cannot be trusted. They just want to sell us out as a whole!"

"."

Although Ryugu issued an announcement and the Wuji Pirates have a good reputation, the fishmen on Fishman Island do not buy it.

As I said, pirates are pirates. No matter how good their reputation is, they are not trustworthy in the eyes of many lower-class people. At least before they come into contact with them, they will not trust pirates at all. Even if the Dragon Palace guarantees them, most of the fishmen will not believe them.

This resulted in the fact that even after two days since the Dragon Palace’s announcement, not many mermaids were willing to live on the island given by the Infinity Pirates.

During these two days, Li Yuan was not in a hurry at all. He just took Tian Yueshi to go shopping and play on Fishman Island.

It’s a pity that Tian Yueshi watched him too closely, as if he was afraid that he would disappear accidentally, so Li Yuan didn’t have the chance to experience the charm of the mermaid girls on Fishman Island.

"Captain, our recruitment situation is not very good. We have only recruited more than a hundred murlocs so far, and they are all murlocs with little combat power."

The fishman Gerard found Li Yuan who was shopping and reported.

"Hey, you guys are so stupid. You did such a simple thing as recruiting like this. Come on, I will lead you in recruiting and show you what our Wuji Pirates' recruitment methods are!"

Li Yuan looked at the dejected Gerard and said helplessly.

These guys are obviously pirates, but they insist on learning the navy's recruitment methods. It would be strange if they could only recruit fishmen!

"Do you know where Fishman Street is?"

Li Yuan asked.

"Know!"

Gerald nodded.

"That's good to know. Come on, lead the way, we're going to recruit in Fishman Street."

Li Yuan said.

"But Captain."

"No problem. We want to recruit fishmen with blood, not guys who can only patrol."

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Gerard wanted to say something but was interrupted by Li Yuan.

Following Li Yuan's notification, the crew of the Wuji Pirates arrived at Fishman Street.

This is the most chaotic, brutal and lawless place on Fishman Island. It is also the orphan shelter of Fishman Island. Even the Dragon Palace cannot have jurisdiction here. It is truly a lawless place on Fishman Island.

"You scum from the Wuji Pirates, what are you doing in our Fishman Street? You are not welcome here, get out of here now!!"

However, as soon as Li Yuan and his companions arrived, they were blocked by a group of thugs from Yuren Street, who started cursing at them.

"It's really interesting, there are so many idiots in this world."

Li Yuan said with emotion that even at his point in life, with a reputation that shocked the world, he would still be ridiculed by some little guys. It must be said that this was a really strange world, and there were too many idiots in the world.

"Barrett, Ashura-doji, the two of you beat up all the fishmen on this fishman street. Don't use Conqueror's Haki, and don't kill them."

Li Yuan said with a smile on his face.

"okay!"

Barrett and Ashura Boy became interested after hearing Li Yuan's words. After all, their bones had become a little soft in the past two days, and now was a good time to loosen them up.

"boom!!!"

The fish-man thugs who had just taunted Li Yuan were immediately blasted away by Ashura Boy and Barrett. The severe pain made them unable to even stand up.

"Damn it! How dare you come to our Fishman Street to cause trouble? Brothers, attack!"

There were quite a few fishmen watching here. When they saw Barrett and his men taking action, they immediately rushed up and wanted to beat Barrett and his men to death.

"what!!!!"

However, no matter how many fishmen rushed up, they were all beaten away by Barrett and Ashura Boy with their bare hands.

For a while, the whole Fishman Street was filled with screams. Large numbers of Fishmen were beaten to a bloody mess, and the strong smell of blood filled the entire Fishman Street.

Then it attracted more fishmen to besiege Barrett and his men, and they all fell down quickly.

This phenomenon continued to repeat until more and more fishmen were lying on the ground.

In just a few minutes, half of the murlocs in Murloc Street were lying on the ground.

"You are just a bunch of scum, and you dare to yell at the captain of our Wuji Pirates. You are such ignorant idiots!" "Our captain has taken a liking to you and wants to recruit you, but you dare to refuse. I don't know where you got the courage to refuse!"

"We in the Wuji Pirates don't accept just any guy. This is the test for us in the Wuji Pirates. We won't accept weaklings!"

"."

Barrett and his men beat up the fishmen and mocked them loudly.

The fishmen who had been beaten to the ground wanted to refute, but they couldn't say anything no matter what. Anyone who dared to say anything would be beaten again!
"Stop it, stop it right there!"

At this moment, a fishman with red skin was leading thousands of fishmen and rushing over from the back of Fishman Street. After seeing this scene, his eyes suddenly became bloodshot and red!
"Boss Tiger, Boss Tiger is here, we are saved!"

When many fishmen saw the coming fishmen, their eyes suddenly lit up. The most powerful fishman in their Fishman Street has come, and he will definitely be able to defeat these two hateful pirates!

"Fishman Karate: Five Thousand Watt Punch!"

Tiger rushed forward like mad, with the power of sea waves condensed in his fist, and punched Barrett.

"Your fist is so weak, it has no strength at all!"

However, Barrett just stood there quietly, and Tiger's fist hit his chest, unable to even make Barrett take a step back.

Barrett immediately lost interest and punched Tiger Red away.

"How can it be!"

Fishman Street suddenly became quiet. They could never have imagined that Boss Tiger could not even hurt the enemy at all, and was even defeated with just one punch like the other fishmen.

At this moment, the faith of many of the fishmen present seemed to be shattered, and they could hardly believe what they saw.

The natural strength of the fishmen is ten times that of humans, but what did they see now? The most powerful of the fishmen, Tiger, was defeated by the other party in one move!
"Kill him! Avenge Boss Tiger!"

Even though Tiger was defeated, those stupid fishmen in Fishman Street still foolishly wanted to rush over and kill Barrett.

"Stop it, don't move!!"

Tiger endured the pain, stood up and scolded the fishmen, telling them not to act rashly.

"What on earth do you want to do in Fishman Street?"

Tiger asked loudly.

He has now noticed that although the fishmen lying on the ground are seriously injured, no one is dead, and the people of the Wuji Pirates have no intention of killing anyone.

"Hahahaha, of course we're here to recruit fishmen into the Promise Pirates. I heard that your Fishman Street is the most chaotic, dirty, and powerful place in Fishman Island, so we came here to recruit people."

"My actions just now were just to test whether you are worthy of the name."

At this time, Li Yuan stood up, and his domineering aura emerged, instantly covering the group of fishmen in Fishman Street.

Those fishmen who had just arrived were suddenly pressed to the ground and could only look up at Li Yuan's figure.

Among all the fishmen present, only Tiger could kneel on the ground without completely falling down despite Li Yuan's domineering aura.

"Damn it, what the hell is this? Get up!"

The fishmen roared madly, but their bodies were completely unable to get up.

"Here, let me say it again. You people in Fishman Street are the garbage of Fishman Island. You can only live in places where the sun can't reach and in the dirtiest coral reefs."

"Do you know why? Let me tell you now, it's because you are too weak. You are so weak that you can't even stand up in front of my spirit. You can only lie on the ground and look up at me!"

"Even your fellow compatriots on Fishman Island regard you as trash, spit on you, and hope that you all die in this Fishman Street and disappear forever in Fishman Street!"

"If you stay here for the rest of your life, you will never be able to change your fate. You will only die slowly in this gloomy and cold Fishman Street, and no one will remember your names."

"Only the strong can change their own destiny, control their own fate, become the best, live openly in the sun, walk on land, not fear any danger, live freely and happily, instead of being slowly starved to death, beaten to death, or captured as a slave by the slave group in this damn fishman street!"

"Come to my Wuji Pirates, I will give you a chance to become stronger, a chance to change your own destiny!"

"In two days, the Wuji Pirates will leave Fishman Island. Mermaids who want to change their fate, who are unwilling to stay in this Fishman Street, who want to become strong and live freely, please come to the port to find me!"

Li Yuan's deafening voice echoed throughout the entire Fishman Street, and all the Fishmen who were pressed to the ground could hear it clearly.

When Li Yuan left, the pressure on them suddenly dissipated, allowing them to finally get up and stand up.

At this moment, they all stared blankly at Li Yuan's leaving back in silence, with complicated expressions in their eyes, and no one knew what they were thinking.

"I am the captain of the Infinite Pirates, the fishman Jellal!"

However, Li Yuan and the others left, but Jellal, the fishman who was the captain of the Wuji Pirates, stayed. With a very complicated look in his eyes, he introduced his identity.
