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

Chapter 297: Shirley Joins the Promise Pirates

"Well, Xia Li, go and see who you want to take to the Wuji Sea. I'll wait for you here."

Li Yuan gently touched Xia Li's little head and said.

Little Xia Li is the same age as Ross and Asuna, so they should be able to play together in the future.

Many of the fish-man ladies in the cafe heard what Li Yuan said to Xia Li.

In the past, when the Infinity Pirates came to Fishman Island to pick up the mermen to live in the Infinity Sea, they always gave priority to adult mermen with fighting capabilities, and then others.

But many fishmen who want to go to the Wuji Sea cannot get in line, and the fishmen lady who is working in the cafe now is one of those who cannot get in line.

So they quickly found Xia Li, hoping to use Xia Li's connections to go to the Wuji Sea together.

And they had heard before that Xia Li had the treatment of a captain, which was two million Baileys per month. They had a good relationship with Xia Li before, so they just happened to be able to include Xia Li, the little rich woman, on the list.

Xia Li is simple-minded and is happy to take these sisters with her so that she won't be alone.

But what was a pity for Xia Li was that when she went to look for her brother, wanting her brother Aaron to go to the Infinite Sea with her, but Aaron was determined to follow Boss Tiger on the adventure and was not willing to go to the Infinite Sea with Xia Li.

Aaron did not stop his sister from going to the Wuji Sea. He knew that the Wuji Sea was a good place for Xia Li. It was very safe there, and life was also very good, better than in Fishman Street.

And before that, Tiger also took a group of fishmen to the Wuji Sea, met the fishman fellows living there, and confirmed that the Wuji Pirates were sincerely helping Fishman Island. Finally, after Tiger came back, he announced this matter.

With Tiger, a fishman of great reputation, as a guarantor, the residents of Fishman Island have more trust in the Wuji Pirates!
"Lord Li Yuan, we are ready!"

A few hours later, Xia Li and many other merman ladies came over with large and small bags of things, all with great anticipation on their faces.

"Yes, let's go now."

"Kumas, arrange the boat. I want to go back to the Infinite Sea."

Li Yuan said this and walked out of the cafe with Xia Li and the others.

"Yes, Captain!"

After hearing what Li Yuan said, Kumas immediately went to arrange the boat.

On Fishman Island, their Infinity Pirates have many ships docked here in case of emergency.

"Sir Li Yuan, we have already set up a banquet in the Dragon Palace. Why don't we go to the Dragon Palace and get together?"

After Li Yuan brought Xia Li and the others out of Fishman Street, Princess Yi Ji came over with her children.

When she learned that Li Yuan had arrived at Fishman Island, she ran over immediately.

After all, Li Yuan has done a favor for their Fishman Island. As the host, she naturally has to come over in person to invite them, build good relationships, and strengthen the connection and friendship between them and the Wuji Pirates so that Fishman Island can live a better life.

"Princess Otohime, thank you very much."

"Oh, this is Shirley, she's an expert at divination. I'm planning to invite her to join the Wuji Pirates. These are Shirley's friends. I'll take them to the Dragon Palace for a banquet."

Originally, Li Yuan was planning to turn down the banquet, but when he saw Xia Li looking at Yiji with expectation, Li Yuan changed his mind.

In Xia Li's eyes, Dragon Palace is the most prosperous and most beautiful place on Fishman Island, so she naturally wants to go and see it.

Anyway, Li Yuan has nothing to do right now, so it’s okay for him to accompany Xia Li to take a look.

"Of course, no problem, little Xia Li, you're so cute, come here, let me hug you!"

When Yiji saw the lovely Xia Li following behind Li Yuan, her maternal love suddenly overflowed and she hugged Xia Li in her arms.

"Hello, sister Princess!"

Charlie said timidly.

"Hey, little Charlie is so good."

Otohime said gently.

Then the group went to the Dragon Palace. Neptune arranged everything for the banquet in the Dragon Palace. When Li Yuan arrived, all kinds of delicious food had been placed on the table.

"Mr. Li Yuan, welcome to Dragon Palace!"

When Neptune saw Li Yuan coming outside the door, he immediately came to greet him.

Since having the protection of the Wuji Pirates, the number of human traffickers on Fishman Island has been decreasing.

As a result, Fishman Island has become increasingly safer, the people's living standards have improved a lot, and the population pressure on Fishman Island has been reduced a lot.

In general, Fishman Island is becoming better, richer and more peaceful at a pace visible to the naked eye.

"Hahahahahaha, Lord Neptune, we meet again!"

Li Yuan took his seat with a smile, then asked Xia Li to sit next to him and began to enjoy the delicacies of Dragon Palace.

"Wow, it's delicious!"

It was the first time that Xia Li ate food from Dragon Palace. The food here was much more delicious than the food in Fishman Street.

"If it's delicious, eat more. There's still a lot of food here."

Li Yuan smiled.

"Uh-huh!"

After hearing what Li Yuan said, Xia Li immediately started eating, her little mouth bulging with food.

"Mr. Li Yuan, I have something I want to ask you for help."

Neptune asked as they were eating.

"You said."

Li Yuan said casually.

"It's like this, could you please, Lord Li Yuan, ask the officers or captains who help guard Fish-man Island to help us train a group of fish-men? This will also reduce some of the pressure on the Wuji Pirates to guard Fish-man Island." Neptune said.

"Sure, that's no problem. I'll just tell them when the time comes."

"But you also know that things like training depend on resources and talent. It doesn't mean that you will become stronger after training."

Li Yuan said while eating.

Li Yuan knew clearly what Neptune was thinking, he just wanted to increase the strength of Fishman Island.

As for things like training, we can just ask some team leaders or cadres to take the time to provide guidance.

As for whether you can become stronger, it all depends on your personal talent, hard work and self-awareness.

The Promise Pirates have hundreds of thousands of members and a well-established training system, but only a few of them can become cadres.

After all, if you want to become stronger, it depends on talent and resources.

"Thank you, Mr. Li Yuan. I'll toast you a glass!"

Neptune was very happy to see Li Yuan agreed.

Both parties enjoyed the banquet very much. After the banquet, Li Yuan took Xia Li and the others to the port and took a boat back to the Wuji Sea.

"Wow, what a beautiful island! Is this the residence of the fishmen in the Wuji Sea?"

When they arrived at the Flower Island in the Wuji Sea, Xia Li looked at the sea of ​​flowers below and her eyes suddenly lit up in surprise.

Although they had seen various photos and videos before, nothing was as shocking as seeing it with their own eyes.

"Yes, this is Flower Island, the second home of the fishmen. You can live here from now on."

Li Yuan said while touching Xia Li's little head.

"Then Lord Li Yuan, will you come to see me often in the future?"

Charlie asked expectantly.

"Of course I will. Now I will show Xia Li where I live. Xia Li can also come to visit me in the future."

Li Yuan said.

After arranging the group of fish-man ladies he brought with him on Flower Island, Li Yuan brought Xia Li to the General's Mansion in Wano Country, just in time to see Asuna coming back from outside, holding a small cage in her hand, with a beautiful butterfly in it.

"Daddy, hug me!!"

When Asuna saw Li Yuan coming back, she immediately put the cage on the ground, then trotted over and jumped directly into Li Yuan's arms, forcing Li Yuan to hold the little guy.

"Dad, why haven't I seen you at home for such a long time?"

Asuna asked curiously after lying in Li Yuan's arms for a while.

"Dad is busy, why isn't Ross catching butterflies with Asuna?"

Li Yuan ruffled Asuna's hair lovingly.

"Is this Lord Li Yuan's daughter? How lucky I am to have a father like Lord Li Yuan!"

Xia Li, who was standing next to her, looked at Asuna, who was held in Li Yuan's arms, with curiosity, and couldn't help but feel envious.

"Dad, Ares and Ross went out to play secretly. They didn't take Asuna to play. Asuna is so pitiful. No one is playing with her!!"

When Asuna heard Li Yuan ask this, a pitiful expression suddenly appeared on her little face, as if she had suffered some great injustice.

But Li Yuan knew that his little daughter was a smart kid, and that this pitiful expression was just an act.

"Asuna, since no one wants to play with you, then daddy will find you a playmate. Look, this is the fishman Xiali."

After listening to Asuna's words, Li Yuan put Asuna down and placed her in front of Xia Li. The two five-year-old girls looked at each other curiously.

"My name is Xia Li, and I just came here from Fishman Island with Lord Li Yuan."

Xia Li was still a little shy at this time, and her voice lacked confidence when she spoke.

"My name is Asuna, can you play with me?"

Asuna said while looking at Shirley happily.

It was the first time she saw a fish-man. Although she knew about mermaids before, she had never left Wano Country, so all she had seen were fish-men.

Those fishmen were all very ugly, not in line with Asuna's aesthetic at all.

But when I saw Xia Li, I felt that she was very beautiful.

"playing what?"

Charlie asked curiously.

"Come on, I'll take you there, and you'll know soon!"

As she said that, Asuna took Xia Li's little hand and trotted out together, ignoring even Li Yuan, the father.

"Husband, this is the first time I see you bringing someone else back."

Tianyue said naturally while holding Li Yuan's arm.

"Xia Li has a very special ability. She can predict many things. This is very important to us."

"She's getting along well with Asuna now, so let her live in the General's Mansion. If she wants to go to Flower Island, arrange for someone to take her there, and make sure to protect her."

Li Yuan explained.
