Chapter 279 The Tragedy of Fishman Island

"What a horrible death..."

"Tsk tsk, so Fishman Island isn't exactly a paradise after all. These fish-men and mermaids do have conflicts, and when they fight, they seem even more ruthless than us humans!"

Far from the execution platform, a group of women began to discuss it with great interest. As for the mermaid tied to the execution platform—what did that have to do with them?

Even Vivi, who is the kindest-hearted person, did not have much of an opinion about what was happening after being modified by Uchiha Tou. At most, she simply turned her eyes away and did not look.

A series of heart-wrenching screams and cheers from the fishmen echoed across the island, filling it with a chaotic yet cruel atmosphere. After about ten minutes, the noise subsided, leaving only soft sobs.

The tall mermaids on the execution platform are now all corpses. Judging from their bodies, which have been almost completely removed to the bone, they must have suffered a great deal when they died.

At the edge of the execution platform, a giant pink mermaid, her hands bound and her mouth gagged, was sobbing in pain. Uchiha Touyu glanced at the beautiful mermaid; this must be the mermaid princess of this generation, and also the Sea King, one of the three great weapons.

"Master, have you taken a fancy to this mermaid? Would you like me to catch her for you?"

Hancock moved closer to Uchiha Touyu and said with a grin, "Hancock patted her ample bosom and nodded."

"This mermaid princess is indeed quite useful. Hmm, perhaps we should make her the queen of Fishman Island."

"I understand! Master, just watch how we perform!"

Hancock nodded excitedly, glancing at her friends behind her:

"Get ready to get started!"

……

On the execution platform, Hody Jones, who had just killed Neptune and several princes, wore a broad smile.

As a Great White Shark Man, Hody Jones possesses considerable physical talent, but living in a dingy place like Fishman Street, he hasn't been able to develop his abilities much.

Although he later joined the guards of Ryugu Palace, at that time his mind was focused on the Tamatebako (Jade Box), and he didn't learn any skills like Fishman Karate.

Therefore, Hody Jones's strength is only average, and even in a place like Fishman Island, he cannot be considered to be unruly.

So even though Hody Jones always dreamed of overthrowing the rule of Ryugu Palace and taking revenge on or even destroying humanity, he never found a good opportunity.

It wasn't until this time, when Uchiha Tou's demonic thoughts entered his body, turning all the fish-men evil and extreme, that he gained the support of so many fish-men and was able to overthrow Ryugu Castle in one fell swoop.

"So next comes the revenge against humanity... Hehehe, this Princess Shirahoshi should be a very useful pawn!"

Hody Jones was unaware of Princess Shirahoshi's abilities, but during this attack, Shirahoshi demonstrated her power to manipulate Sea Kings. The enormous Sea King tore Hody Jones's ally, Vander Decken IX, to shreds.

Fortunately, Hody Jones reacted quickly, knocking Shirahoshi unconscious and then gagged her, preventing her from making any sound and forcing her to sob softly. This prevented the attraction of more Sea Kings.

"We need to find a way to control Princess Shirahoshi... The mermaids on Fish-Man Island would make excellent hostages..."

Hody Jones was still thinking when he suddenly paused, noticing a group of women walking towards him in the distance.

Fishman Island isn't entirely devoid of humans. As a necessary stop on the way to the New World, the number of humans who come to Fishman Island is small, but not uncommon.

However, when the fishmen rioted, all the humans had already been killed. So what's the deal with this group of women who have appeared now?

However, after only a moment's thought, Hody Jones gave up, a sinister smile spreading across his face, and with a wave of his hand:

"Fellow countrymen, more humans have come to our Fishman Island! Let's teach them a lesson!"

Countless fish-men turned their heads to look at Hancock and her group as they slowly approached. If an ordinary person were stared at by so many fierce-looking people, they would be so frightened that their legs would go weak and they would tremble. But to Hancock and her group, the fish-men in front of them were no different from salted fish and dried fish.

"It's human!"

"Kill them! Slaughter all humans, the world belongs to the fish-men!"

"Charge!"

A horde of merfolk rushed over, ready to attack. Hancock, head held high, glanced disdainfully at the merfolk, then waved her hand lightly. Instantly, her female warriors charged out.

A group of fishmen who don't even know Haki faced dozens of Amazonian female warriors who were at least at the level of a Marine Headquarters Commodore. The outcome was predictable.

The Amazon Lily warriors, enveloped in a dark, domineering aura, drew their snake bows and casually shot down over a dozen murlocs with a single arrow. The arrows fired at a speed far exceeding that of a machine gun. Accompanied by screams, the murlocs that charged forward instantly collapsed, covering an area spanning over a thousand meters.

Screams, howls, groans, roars... the entire plaza descended into chaos. The fishmen in front turned to flee, but those behind, unable to see the horrific scene, desperately pushed forward, causing a massive stampede of fishmen.

Although the Amazonian female warriors were powerful and skilled archers, they carried a limited number of arrows. At their speed, they had already used up several quivers of arrows in less than a minute, killing only a few thousand people. However, the number of dead and injured from the infighting among the merfolk was probably in the tens of thousands.

"Damn it! Those damned humans!"

Hody Jones, standing on the execution platform, wore a look of hatred on his face. He took out a jade box, opened it, and took out several pills, stuffing them into his mouth.

Moments later, the great white shark man's muscles swelled up instantly, his eyes turned blood red, his hair turned white, and his aura intensified several times over.

He leaped from the execution platform and crashed to the ground with a thunderous roar, the force of which even shattered the surrounding merman corpses.

Strangely enough, after the original fishman died, his body quickly dried up, as if it had been a dried mummy for thousands of years. When Hody Jones smashed it, the body next to him was directly pulverized into powder, which spread like smoke for dozens of meters around.

"Inferior humans, now I'll show you the power of the fishmen..."

"Wild Lightning!"

Standing next to Hancock, Nami found Hody Jones's voice somewhat grating, and coupled with her negative impression of fish-men, she snapped her fingers without hesitation.

With a gentle flick of her slender, fair fingers, Nami's fingers transformed into leaping lightning. The tiny electric snakes grew thicker and larger after detaching from Nami's fingers, eventually transforming into a raging lightning dragon that plunged into the smoke.

"Ughh ...

Amidst the piercing screams, the aroma of grilled fish wafted through the air. Moments later, the smoke dissipated, leaving only Hody Jones, charred like a pile of coals, on the ground.

The deadly medicine in the Tamatebako might grant Hody Jones immense power, but it wouldn't change his mortal nature. Faced with Nami's lightning, he would be utterly powerless.

"What do we do? Even Boss Hody Jones has been taken down!"

"What are you afraid of? There are only a few dozen of them. If we all swarm them, I refuse to believe they can kill hundreds of thousands of us merfolk!"

"That's right! Let's fight them! Humans are all bad!"

Nami's lips curled into a cold smile as she spoke:

"I never expected this. I initially felt a little guilty about ruling this Fishman Island, since we were the ones who came here to cause trouble. But your actions have so easily dispelled my guilt. Fishmen, after all, shouldn't exist!"

As Nami spoke, bright lightning coiled around her. In the ever-unchanging sky above Ryugu Island, even large amounts of dark clouds appeared, with tiny electric snakes weaving through them.

"Calm down a bit, Nami."

Hancock, her hands wreathed in dark Haki, patted Nami's shoulder, who was radiating electricity.

"I still need to train my warriors. If you were to make a move, these murlocs would probably all be dead!"

Upon hearing Hancock's words, Nami paused for a moment before dispelling the electricity that had been coiling around her body. The dark clouds in the sky immediately dissipated completely, and the fish-man, who had been terrified by the unusual weather, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, they had clearly let their guard down too soon. Hancock simply waved her hand, and the Amazon warriors standing behind her rushed out and attacked the fish-men.

Despite the fact that fishmen are said to have ten times the strength of humans, and some powerful fishmen races even far exceed that, they are still far weaker than the female warriors of Amazon Lily.

Amazon Lily is able to establish itself in the Calm Belt, so its average strength is definitely far superior to that of the Fishmen, only slightly inferior in numbers.

Not to mention these female warriors from Amazon Lily, who have all been enhanced by Uchiha Touya, and their average strength is almost close to that of a Marine Vice Admiral. How could ordinary fishmen possibly fight them?

Almost the instant the two sides made contact, it was like a hot knife cutting through butter, or a tiger entering a flock of sheep. The poor fishmen were completely powerless to resist and were punched and kicked into fish patties by the female warriors. Many fishmen were sent flying into the sky and then fell and killed several of their companions.

Blood gushed out instantly, spreading throughout the entire Dragon Palace Square. However, as if guided, the blood only existed in the air for a moment before disappearing without a trace. The slain merman also turned into a dried corpse in a short time, and finally turned into dust.

"Ughhhhhh!"

"Stop them! Stop them!"

"They're just a few women! Waaah!"

"Why are they so strong?! Why are these women so strong?! Aren't fishmen the strongest race?"

Screams, wails, and sobs quickly filled the plaza. If it weren't for Uchiha Touyu's inner demons constantly tormenting him, these fish-men probably wouldn't have been able to withstand such a terrifying power imbalance under such brutal slaughter.

These women are almost invulnerable to weapons; even without using Haki, ordinary swords cannot penetrate their skin, leaving ordinary fishmen feeling only endless despair.

That's how battles are. It's not that I'm afraid of your powerful attacks, but I'm afraid that my attacks won't be able to break through the opponent's defenses. What's the point of a siege if you can't even see the health bar?

A broken spirit, a collapsed faith, a desperate attempt to escape in fear, only to have the inner demons reignite the rage within, causing it to surge back...

Torn between inner demons and fear, many merfolk eventually turned bloodshot, foaming at the mouth and making hoarse noises as they charged forward like madmen, only to be killed like weeds.

However, there were simply too many murlocs. Some of them, seeing how terrifying the Amazonian warriors were, set their sights on Hancock and her group and charged forward. Even though the warriors tried their best to intercept them, some murlocs still managed to get past.

Then those fishmen who managed to break through the blockade were electrocuted into charred remains by Nami.

"No one else needs to get involved! It seems that those Amazonian lily warriors alone are enough to wipe out this group of murlocs. It will just take a little longer."

Floating in mid-air, Uchiha Tou looked at the battlefield below and quickly came to a conclusion. He then shook his head. The strength of Fishman Island was clearly insufficient to allow his women to perform at their best, and they couldn't even force them to use half of their strength.

"Forget it, we'll be going to the New World anyway, so there's plenty of time to train these women. For now, let's see what I've gained!"

A crimson light descended upon the execution platform. Fishman Island was in chaos at the moment, and no one paid much attention to the execution platform. Uchiha Touyu did not encounter any foolish fishmen who tried to stop him.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a miserable death! The kings of the pirate world are either stupid or wicked; there are no truly wise and powerful rulers."

After glancing at the few fish bones that had been removed, Uchiha Touyu made a few sarcastic remarks—in fact, if he hadn't released a large amount of inner demons into Fishman Island, this powder keg would never have exploded like this. It can be said that Uchiha Touyu was the culprit from the very beginning.

A soft sob sounded in his ear. Uchiha Hiu turned his head and saw the huge pink mermaid on the edge of the execution platform. He stroked his chin and walked over.

With a flick of his hand, the ropes binding the mermaid fell off, and then the white cloth in her mouth was pulled out, instantly turning her sobs into cries of anguish.

"You must be the princess of Fishman Island. So the people who died must be your father and brother."

Although Uchiha Touyu already knew the answer in his heart, he still stroked his chin and asked with great interest.
