His facial muscles trembled, and his eyes stared ahead in fear.

The shadow twisted and moved slowly toward him in an eerie manner.

He was the leader of a slave-hunting group and also a user of the Paramecia-type Radar-Ray Fruit. With his ability, his slave-hunting business was very prosperous, and he easily accumulated a lot of wealth. He even caught the eye of the Celestial Dragons and became a servant of the Celestial Dragon Charmaco Saint.

However, the district is now facing a huge crisis.

"Shadow-Shadow Fruit? It's Moria? Damn it, why is he targeting me? Anyway, I need to scare him away first. If anything goes wrong with this shipment, my whole family will be in big trouble..."

Serving the Celestial Dragons granted him privileges that allowed him to act with impunity.

However, if he makes a mistake, the Celestial Dragons' wrath will consume him.

Daletri wasn't even thinking about revenge right now; he could only hope that the Celestial Dragons' reputation would scare away the people in front of him. He'd deal with the rest later.

"Celestial Dragons? You mean... the Celestial Dragons are coming to the Sabaody Archipelago?"

The distorted shadow emitted a shrill sound and surged up, almost touching his face.

An indescribable sense of oppression piled up in his heart, causing him to gasp for breath.

"explain!!!"

"Yes...yes...the great descendant of the Creator, the Celestial Dragon Saint Charmaco, is coming here...he has already set off, I advise you to be good..."

Squeak~

The shadow pierced his chest, blood splattered on the ground, and Darlet's eyes were filled with disbelief, as if he couldn't understand why the name of the Celestial Dragons hadn't intimidated the enemy before him.

But then his life was violently taken away.

"Good luck."

The shadows twisted, and Luo Hao's figure appeared inside the underground building.

The corners of his mouth turned up.

One of his purposes in coming to the Sabaody Archipelago was to meet the Celestial Dragons.

Celestial Dragons are very precious, and they are of great use to Luo Hao.

For example, it could be used to lure Admiral Kizaru, who had been staying at Marine Headquarters to provide support, to this location, thus slowing him down and buying Luo Hao time to breach Impel Down.

Furthermore, they could ask the World Government for ransom, or for ten or eight Devil Fruits or something.

It's a very good golden pig.

"Looks like luck really is conserved! That Crocodile guy left Sabaody Archipelago and I came up empty-handed. But you did give me some good news, you bastard."

Luo Hao chuckled and casually kicked Daletri's corpse away.

Today's original goal was to hunt Crocodile, who possesses the Sand-Sand Fruit, but I couldn't find him. After updating the information, I learned that he had already completed the coating and left the Sabaody Archipelago for Fish-Man Island.

Therefore, Luo Hao had no choice but to move on to his next target.

This user of the Radar-Ray Fruit unexpectedly received another piece of good news.

"It should be in the next few days! I need to keep an eye on it! And... are they the Celestial Dragons' designated slaves?"

Luo Hao glanced at the door beside him; it was the passageway leading to the base of the building.

Further down was the place where this slave-hunting group imprisoned slaves.

He was very interested in the slaves that Daletri claimed were intended for by the Celestial Dragons.

"Wow, that's a really wild approach..."

Luo Hao strolled through the slave cells, looking at the slaves locked in cages and sighing.

Fish-men, mermaids, fur-bearers, long-legged tribes...

"Amazonian, and... mixed-race fur?"

Luo Hao's gaze finally settled on the two of them.

On two petite girls who are showing "fierce" expressions.

An Amazon, a mixed-race furry.

The fur tribe, also known as the mink tribe or the fur-fur tribe, generally resembles a human form derived from various furry animals, with animal faces and furry bodies on all parts.

They mainly live on Zou, the land of giant elephants. They are said to be a race that hates humans and dislikes humans approaching their country. Therefore, they are a rare race. Individual members of the race are quite strong. Even the old, weak, women and children are stronger than strong human men.

They are a relatively dangerous race.

However, their high price in human areas leads many slave-hunting groups to take the risk.

Mixed-race fur people are even rarer than fur people, especially those who are a mix of humans and fur people.

It's important to know that the Mink Tribe has animal faces and fur, which differs somewhat from human aesthetics. Therefore, apart from true warriors and freaks, very few people would marry a Mink Tribe member.

The children born to them were the most coveted by the slave-hunting group.

The hybridization of humans and fur-bearers may result in children who only possess some of the physical characteristics of fur-bearers.

That is, children with animal ears, animal tails, etc.

If it is a woman, she is definitely a prized possession in the slave-hunting group.

For example, the one in front of Luo Hao.

A petite beast girl as beautiful as ice and snow.

Its hair, tail, and eyes were a snow-white blue, while its skin was snow-white and delicate.

Although he put on a fierce, baring-toothed expression, it only incites the savagery in people's hearts.

"Oh~~~"

Luo Hao couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

It truly broadened his horizons, and he had to admit that this was indeed the perfect kemonomimi girl from his fantasy world.

However, he only admired it; he did have some ideas, but he immediately dismissed them as soon as they arose, as the current situation did not allow him to play a nurturing game.

"Alright, everyone, look here, I have something to announce."

Luo Hao's voice attracted the attention of many slaves; fear, panic, unease, and ferocity—all kinds of eyes were focused on him.

"You are free."

The shadow beneath him spread out, covering the entire underground structure, and a shadow blade fell from the shadows, severing the iron lock.

The gate creaked open slowly, and the released slaves all looked bewildered.

Clearly, they don't quite understand the current situation.

"Hmm...we need to find you a place to settle down! Otherwise, wouldn't it have been a waste of time to save you? Hmm..."

Luo Hao's gaze slowly shifted to the beautiful Amazon girl from before, only to find that she was now surrounded by two Amazon girls of similar age.

"Hmm...it seems someone can handle this for me."

……

"Thank you for saving these children. I owe you a favor."

Shaki looked at the three Amazon girls with a grateful expression.

"Then just use them! Send these people home! If they don't have a home, then take pity on them and let them work as waiters or something, give them a way to make a living."

Luo Hao didn't need Xia Qi's favor; instead, he used it on the rescued slaves.

It wasn't anything else, but he had gone to great lengths to rescue them, and he wouldn't be happy to leave them to fend for themselves, so he just considered it a way to satisfy himself.

"you……"

Xia Qi looked surprised. In fact, this was what she had originally planned to do, so it couldn't be simply canceled out.

She was just very curious about what kind of person Luo Hao was. He clearly knew that Rayleigh was hiding with her, and the girl who brought Amazon must also know her identity.

Her favors are so valuable, yet she uses them in this way?

She was puzzled.

Chapter 17 Transition

"That's all for now! Make your own arrangements. I have other things to do, so goodbye."

Luo Hao put down his wine glass and got up to leave.

Luo Hao felt a slight tug on his clothes and couldn't help but look down.

The mixed-race, fur-eared girl was timidly reaching out her small, fair hand to grab the hem of his clothes.

"Little one, what's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"I……"

A soft, childlike voice came from the girl's mouth, and she looked at Luo Hao expectantly with her beautiful, snow-white eyes.

"Can I come with you?"

"Follow me? What are you going to do with me? I suggest you stay here and wash the dishes."

The girl's question implies that her parents are dead, most likely killed by the slave hunters.

So, there's definitely nowhere else to go.
