Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

And future plans such as accumulating power to seize control of Fishman Island, developing power based on Fishman Island, and ultimately counterattacking humanity on the ground to rule the world...

Rocks was amazed.

Despite being a weakling, he has quite the ambition, even aiming to rule the world!

"This is……"

Jinbe frowned as he saw a photograph: "The events of that day..."

The photo shows Hody Jones lifting a human by the neck.

Judging from the image in this photo... it's from the day Queen Otohime was assassinated!

Why are there photos from that day here by Hody Jones?

And it's a photo that Hody Jones claims was taken when a human killed Queen Otohime?

If it weren't for Hody Jones's words, the subsequent impact might not have been so bad.

All of Queen Otohime's efforts will not be in vain...

Is it...

They realized something.

Jinbe didn't even care about being impolite.

As he picked up the photos and papers to look at them, his expression grew increasingly grim.

Hody Jones is in every single photo, as if someone specifically photographed him...

Photos of acts such as killing humans, murdering one's own kind, etc.!

Jinbe also saw two mermaid guards who had previously gone missing.

One had his neck snapped by Hody Jones, another had his chest pierced by Hody Jones...

These photos are a record of something Hody Jones did!

Furthermore, each photo is accompanied by a text description, a concise summary of what happened in the photo…

This caused Jinbe's pupils to contract sharply, and his face turned ugly.

He also picked up a photo of Queen Otohime when she was assassinated and turned it over to take a look.

Upon seeing the above description, Jinbe's expression completely changed!

Queen Otohime was actually killed by Hody Jones, whose purpose was to undermine her ideals and deepen Fish-Man Island's hatred towards humans...

Because Hody Jones felt that... peaceful coexistence with humans was an insult to fish-men and mermaids, and that humans were a lowly species!

Chapter 206 Was this also within Rocks's expectations? He wanted to see Princess Shirahoshi!

Upon seeing the words above, Jinbe's breathing became heavy, his eyes bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth as he said:

"How could this be... Damn Hody Jones, how dare he..."

The truth was so unexpected that it filled Jinbe with immense anger.

If Hody Jones hadn't died by now... Jinbe, in his rage, would definitely have killed him with his own hands!

They actually committed such an unforgivable act!

"..."

When he saw these photos, Rocks couldn't help but shake his head.

This guy definitely has a serious mental illness.

So you actually saved photos of all the bad things you did, just to remember your "great achievements," right?

No wonder he's an extreme racist.

So you've switched from writing a diary to this method?

Lockes couldn't quite understand the psychology of criminals...

However, they did find evidence of the crime, and the real murderer who killed Queen Otohime was found.

Fishman Island owes him an even greater favor...

Rocks patted Jinbe on the shoulder and said calmly, "There's no use being angry anymore. This guy has already been killed by Kuina."

"We can't exactly revive the enemy so you can kill them all over again, can we?"

"..."

Jinbe remained silent.

Taking a deep breath to suppress his anger, he bowed to Locke and said sincerely, "Thank you for your help, otherwise we would still be in the dark..."

"I never imagined that the murderer who killed Queen Otohime was right under our noses all along, and that he also harbored such ambitions..."

Jinbe genuinely didn't expect the murderer to be Hody Jones.

That damn guy is still plotting these things in secret.

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, as long as the other party does it, it will definitely have an impact on Fishman Island.

At that point, Fishman Island's situation might become even more precarious...

Jinbe then solemnly declared, "Our Fishman Island will remember this kindness, and if needed, we will spare no effort to help!"

The more favors you owe, the bigger the debt becomes.

Even Jinbe felt a sense of "I have no way to repay this kindness".

But being a kind and righteous person, he wouldn't pretend that nothing had happened.

The Arlong Pirates, resolving the threat on Fishman Island, uncovering the truth behind Queen Otohime's death...

All of this involves him and Fishman Island!

What kind of reward should we and Fishman Island offer to repay these favors?

Favors are the hardest to repay...

"It was just an accident and a coincidence. It would be too formal to say that, Lord Jinbei..."

Lockes waved his hand dismissively.

But I smiled inwardly.

Rocks is now 70-80% confident he can get Jinbe to join them.

The last two or three tenths, well... after we go to the Dragon Palace to resolve Princess Shirahoshi's problem, that should be about it, right?

But now is not the time to talk about these things.

We must proceed gradually!

Jinbe's tone remained sincere and solemn: "This isn't about being polite or distant; since it's a favor or a matter of kindness, we need to remember it..."

After hearing Jinbe's words, Kuina and Nami exchanged bewildered glances: "..."

Was this also within Lox's expectations?

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

The matter was interconnected.

Everything is developing in the direction that "Knight of the Sea" Jinbe and Fishman Island owe them more favors...

Rocks had previously said he wanted to recruit Jinbe, the "Knight of the Sea," and even used "favors" to "coerce" him into joining...

As time went on, the other party accumulated more and more "favors"...

Is this a coincidence?

Who would believe that!

……

With Locus's "emptiness" restored, the group returned to the Mermaid Cafe.

Jinbe also took away evidence of Hody Jones's crimes.

Although Hody Jones died, the New Mermaid Pirates were also destroyed.

However, there are some things that the Fishman Island royal family needs to know...

After chatting for a while in the Mermaid Cafe, Jinbe invited Rocks and the others to go to the Ryugu Palace.

The group bid farewell to Lady Shirley and took some kind of transportation to the Dragon Palace.

They arrived at the Dragon Palace in no time.

The royal family of Mermaid Island was already waiting there.

It was King Neptune with his three princes, as well as two ministers on his left and right, and several others.

They dared not delay upon receiving the news.

The arrival of the Blackwing Demon Pirates, one of the "Emperors of the Sea," is enough to warrant such attention from their royal family...

"Nice to meet you, Lord Blackwing Archdeacon, welcome to all of you."

King Neptune addressed the head of the group, Lox, with utmost politeness, saying, "We have prepared a banquet; please do not decline..."

Locus laughed and said, "No need for such formalities, King Neptune."

If others treat him with courtesy, he will naturally treat others with courtesy in return.

If there is no animosity or grudge, Rocks is quite easy to get along with.

"Haha, you seem to be a straightforward person!"

Neptune enjoyed dealing with straightforward people and said with a smile, "Then let's not stand on ceremony. Um, thank you all for resolving a potential problem for Fishman Island..."

"Please let our Fishman Island give you a proper welcome!"

He already knew some of the details from Jinbe.

No one expected that the existence of the new mermaid pirate crew would pose such a hidden danger.

That gave him quite a fright.
