Harry doesn't want to be a wizard, he wants to be a superhero

Chapter 190 Fishman: How could Nami be so strong?!

Harry's eyes flickered slightly when he saw the fish-men, and he walked forward.

Noticing Harry's rash move, Nami's heart tightened, and she finally made a decision:

"No, don't go there..."

However, her attempts to dissuade her came too late.

The merman ahead had already spotted the two of them. His eyes lit up, and he walked forward with a grin.

Seeing this, Nami changed her mind and sighed softly:

"Alright, listen to me later. Don't give anything away. These merfolk are very fierce. If they displease them, I'll get beaten up!"

Harry remained noncommittal about Nami's words.

Just as he suspected, Nami's relationship with these fish-men is very complicated, definitely the kind of friendly relationship she just mentioned!
Next, Harry walked slowly toward the fish-men with a calm expression.

Meanwhile, a shark-man was idly looking around when his eyes caught a glimpse of a familiar orange color. His eyes lit up, and he shouted:

"Hey! Nami, where have you been? Boss Arlong is looking for you!"

Another octopus-like fish-man, his face contorted with grotesque flesh, said with a hint of mockery and sarcasm:
"What, you've gone to steal the treasures of those foolish humans again?"
"You'd better hurry, don't delay drawing the nautical chart for Boss Long. If you upset him, you'll be in big trouble!"

The kissing fishman, Chu, who was passing by, also came over, grinning and revealing a row of sharp teeth, laughing strangely:

"Nami, I heard you've been up to some tricks lately. Don't try anything funny, you won't escape our grasp."

"If you dare betray Boss Alon, hmph, the entire Cocoyasi Village will pay with your life!"

The last cartilaginous fish-man stared coldly at Nami and said in a muffled voice:
"Nami, behave yourself and do what you're supposed to do. If there are any mistakes in drawing the sea chart, your little tricks won't be enough to deal with the wrath of us fish-men!"

Many fishmen mocked Nami without hesitation, even though Nami was a world-class cartographer whose sea charts were incredibly accurate and who was a rare talent.

Even so, they still looked down on Nami.

Not for any other reason than that Nami is human.

Humans deserve to be taught a lesson; they are nothing but a lower species, far inferior to fish-men!
Harry's expression was calm, his eyes like a deep, still lake, as he indifferently looked at the fish-man in front of him.

At the same time, he clearly heard Nami's voice, filled with hatred and gritted teeth.

Perhaps because her body was no longer under her control, and she no longer needed to pretend or endure, Nami unleashed all the anger that had been buried deep in her heart and suppressed for so long:
"These damned bastards have taken over my village and are treating this place as their territory, committing all sorts of evil deeds!"
He...they even killed my foster mother, Harry. I agree. I'll give anything to help me later!
"But don't be too hasty now. Humans are far inferior to fish-men in physical strength. We'll deal with them first, and then we'll talk about other things!"

However, Nami's earnest advice seemed to have the opposite effect.

Harry not only ignored her advice, but continued forward without hesitation, steadily walking towards the menacing-looking fishmen.

This made Nami panic instantly, and she quickly tried to dissuade him in her mind:
"No, don't go over there! Even if you do go over, you must remain polite and absolutely cannot provoke them, otherwise you'll definitely get a beating!"

Harry simply replied in a flat tone and a soft voice:

"No need to be so careful, they're just a few insignificant insects."

Originally, this group of fishmen surrounded and threatened Nami, eagerly anticipating seeing her trembling with fear and panic, so as to amuse themselves.

But at this moment, Nami showed no fear whatsoever; instead, she remained calm and walked towards them unhurriedly.

This unusual reaction had already made the fish people furious and extremely displeased.

Just then, they clearly heard Nami refer to them as insects!
This completely ignited the fishmen's anger, like a barrel of gunpowder being detonated in an instant!

For a long time, the fish-people have suffered discrimination in society and struggled to survive, which makes them much more sensitive and vulnerable than ordinary humans, and they are more concerned about such insulting words.

Once their sore spot is touched, the anger aroused by the sarcasm surges like a tidal wave, instantly overwhelming reason and turning into a raging inferno.

The lead shark-man, his face flushed a deep purple with rage, his sharp teeth gleaming coldly, roared hoarsely like a wild beast:
"What did you say? You brat! You dare compare us to insects? Don't forget, if it weren't for Boss Ah Long sparing your life, you'd be dead already!"

The octopus-man waved several tentacles and said directly:

"Damn humans, you really don't know how to be grateful. We spared your life, and you still dare to mock us!"

Even though Boss Ah Long forbids us from easily attacking you, we must teach you a lesson today!

Seeing the fishmen in front of her get angry, Nami's voice immediately showed fear, and she hurriedly told Harry to run away: "Run, Harry! I don't know what your world is like, but in this world, fishmen's arm strength is at least ten times that of ordinary humans! With my small body, I'd be dead if I took one punch!"

In stark contrast to Nami's panic, Harry remained calm, as if the fishmen before him were indeed just insignificant insects that could be easily crushed!

Harry walked unhurriedly to the group of mermen, a confident smile playing on his lips, and reassured them:

"Nami, don't panic. I told you before, I'm a mage, so I should have special abilities like the Devil Fruit users in your world!"

Hearing this, Nami was not relieved at all; instead, she became even more anxious, her voice trembling with tears.
"I know you're a mage, but you're controlling my body right now! What if something goes wrong? What will I do?!"

"It's all the same~"

Nami: "..."

Damn it, you're the one who got beaten up!

Nami:ヾ(｀Д)彡
Meanwhile, after they declared they would beat Nami up, the fishmen discovered that Nami had not run away but instead stood in front of them, looking at them with a mocking expression. Their anger flared up immediately.

The shark-fish man clenched his fist and slammed it towards Nami's shoulder, shouting:
"You brat, how dare you look down on us merfolk! Today you'll pay a heavy price for your arrogance!"

Faced with this punch, Nami in his mind kept screaming and calling out to Harry to dodge quickly.

Just at this critical moment, a clear chirping of a thousand birds suddenly rang out, and countless tiny electric currents, like nimble silver snakes, exploded wildly on Nami's body, making crackling sounds.

Immediately afterwards, the world in Nami's eyes seemed to be slowed down. The heavy punch that she had thought was as fast as lightning and unavoidable now crawled towards her at an extremely slow speed, like a turtle stuck in the mud.

"Wait, what is this? Is this the power of a mage? You can actually manipulate lightning and enhance my physical abilities!"

Amid Nami's terrified screams, Harry manipulated Nami's body, deftly turning her to the side, and the shark-fish man's heavy punch, accompanied by a whooshing sound, grazed the corner of her clothes and missed the target.

Immediately afterward, Harry leaned forward and threw a punch that struck the shark-fish man in the abdomen, sending him flying with tremendous force!

"How is this possible? She's a human, how could she have such power!"

A fishman stared wide-eyed, his voice filled with disbelief, and instinctively took a step back.

The other merman was furious, swinging his fist violently, his scales standing on end in a fit of rage. He roared:
"Damn it, this brat dared to resist and even injured one of our brothers! Let's all attack her and tear her to pieces!"

Most fish-men are short-tempered creatures. In this situation, they completely lost their minds, forgot their leader Arlong's orders, and prepared to go all out to beat Nami to death.

Anyway, they all knew that in Boss A Long's eyes, humans were nothing but beasts. They might be punished afterward, but their lives would be in no danger!
Noticing that the other fishmen were also charging towards her, Nami cried out in alarm again in her mind and asked worriedly:

"Harry, there are seven or eight fishmen. Can you handle them?"

Harry didn't answer, but showed it through his actions.

He extended Nami's slender index finger and whispered:

"Hado One, White Lightning!"

The Way of the Void is a peculiar magic that Harry learned from a spirit world. Its activation principle is simple and does not require drawing a magic circle. Although its power is not very strong, it is best suited to deal with these small fry because it can be cast quickly!

In an instant, a dazzling bolt of lightning shot out from Nami's finger, instantly striking the strongest shark-fishman and piercing through his chest.

The powerful electric current penetrated deep into the shark-man's internal organs, crushing them. In no time, the shark-man lost all life and died.

After that, Harry used this low-level spell to kill the fishmen one by one until only three fishmen remained. At that point, they were completely overwhelmed by fear and fled into the distance.

"No, how could Nami be so strong? Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

"Go find Boss Arlong quickly! Nami is very likely to become a Devil Fruit user, but even if she is, she is definitely no match for Boss Arlong!"

Watching the several fishmen flee in panic, Harry would normally have bypassed them if he needed them to lead the way.

Unfortunately, Nami was also very familiar with the island, so there was no need for them to stay!

The next moment, three white bolts of lightning shot out, instantly piercing through the bodies of the three fishmen and killing them.

After that, Harry continued walking slowly toward the center of the island, following the direction Nami had pointed.
