Looking at the excited crew members, Reina's lips curled up slightly, and he thought smugly, "You think I can't handle you? A bunch of bumpkins, a game of Ludo will at least keep you quiet for a while!"

A game of Ludo lasted for more than an hour before it ended. Olga was the final winner, and after she received a bottle of liquor from Reina, a new problem arose.

That is because the Whitebeard Pirates had a large number of members, and one set of Ludo was obviously not enough for everyone to play.

Left with no other choice, Reina had to call on the shipwright and some crew members with better handicraft skills to start making and carving Ludo out of wood. It took them three whole days to finally meet the crew's demand for Ludo.

From that day on, the shouts of "666" could often be heard on the Moby Dick.

Reina had originally considered exchanging the playing cards or mahjong for the game, but considering the gambling nature of playing cards and mahjong, he ultimately chose board games instead.

The board game gift pack he redeemed from the mall included Ludo, which was just the simplest introductory game. Later, there were Monopoly, Three Kingdoms Kill, Werewolf, Detective Game, and other board games that were once popular all over the world.

However, he did not take them all out at once, but planned to take them out one by one.

He also needed to make some changes. For example, he changed Monopoly to a One Piece version while the members were playing Ludo.

The names of Earth's cities were replaced with island names, the four major oceans (east, west, south, and north) replaced the four train stations, Fishman Island and Wano Country replaced the power company and waterworks, and the prison became the Navy's Deep Sea Prison, and so on.

Once the crew gets tired of playing Ludo, he'll bring out the One Piece version of Monopoly, and then he'll have some peace and quiet again.

Moreover, Monopoly is much more playable than Ludo, and it will definitely last longer. At that time, he will also change Three Kingdoms Kill into Pirate Kill.

This changed the situation where the crew members were bored during the voyage.

"Dad, the coating is done, we can set sail anytime!" On the island closest to Fishman Island, the shipwright finished coating the Moby Dick and shouted loudly to Whitebeard, who was playing Ludo.

"Alright, guys! Let's go!" Whitebeard heard the shipwright's shout, deliberately scrambled all the airplane pieces on the chessboard, and stood up to shout.

Reina, sitting opposite Whitebeard, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth. He was just one plane away from winning, while Whitebeard hadn't even reached the finish line yet.

However, these are all just games, so it doesn't matter. But work can't be taken lightly, so Reina got up and checked the hull membrane again before nodding to Whitebeard to indicate that they could set sail.

"The start of the Great Pirate Era has brought countless pirates to the seas, and many islands have been harassed by them. I wonder if Roger would regret it if he knew!" Reina said with great emotion when talking about the current state of the seas.

He knew Roger's reasons for doing so and agreed with his approach, but perhaps Roger hadn't considered the potential consequences at the time!

Reiner's words made Whitebeard fall silent for a moment before he finally spoke, "No matter what, let's just do our best!"

"How does Big Brother plan to handle the Fishman Island matter? This is no easy task!"

“It’s simple, just leave our flag here!” the white-bearded man said with a slight smirk.

"Hmm? I'm afraid the Navy won't agree! This place is too close to the Navy Headquarters; they probably won't allow our influence to expand here!" Reina was taken aback, shook his head, and said.

Fishman Island is located just below the Red Line, and above it is the Celestial Dragons' headquarters, Jomari. If Whitebeard's flag were to be planted here, neither the World Government nor the Navy would likely agree to it!

"It's alright, if they object, they can come to me! I don't mind teaching them a lesson and showing them who really calls the shots on this ocean!" the white-bearded man replied with an air of dominance.

"Hahahaha... As expected of the eldest brother! I am not talented, but I am willing to be the eldest brother's henchman!" Reina laughed and cupped his hands in greeting.

Chapter 151 The Prophet Shirley

"Big brother, look! Fishman Island is just ahead..."

Reina pointed to Fishman Island not far away and shouted to Whitebeard behind him, but at this moment, Fishman Island seemed to be under attack by pirates.

At Whitebeard's command, the entire Whitebeard Pirates immediately went into battle mode.

With the addition of the Whitebeard Pirates, the pirates causing trouble on Fishman Island were quickly defeated.

"Thanks to you so much this time, Newgate!" Neptune, the Great Knight of the Sea and King of Fishman Island, expressed his gratitude to Whitebeard.

"Gurarararar... We're friends! You saved my life back then!" The white-bearded man waved his hand with a smile, indicating that there was no need to be so polite.

“Since the Great Pirate Era began, more and more pirates and marines have been passing through here. After they arrive, they start to secretly capture fish-men, which has made it difficult for us to cope! It has also made the relationship between fish-men and humans much more tense!” Neptune explained the current situation with a bitter face.

“My old friend, don’t worry, I’m here to help you solve this whole problem! Reina…”

Upon hearing Whitebeard call his name, Reina stepped forward with the Whitebeard Pirates' flag, handed it to Neptune, and said with a smile, "Hang up our flag! Any pirates or marines who come to Fishman Island to cause trouble again will be provoking the Whitebeard Pirates, and their journey to the New World will be over!"

Neptune was taken aback and looked at Whitebeard with confusion, knowing full well what it meant to fly the Whitebeard Pirates' flag.

"Don't worry! If the Navy or the World Government dares to cause you trouble, don't fret. Leave everything to me! Just have someone contact me if you need anything!" Whitebeard naturally understood Neptune's meaning and gave him a direct answer.

After receiving Whitebeard's promise, Neptune ordered Whitebeard's pirate flag to be hung in a prominent place. At the same time, Reina ordered the release of the pirates who had been defeated by the Whitebeard Pirates and instructed them to spread the word that Fishman Island was now Whitebeard's territory.

After everything was settled, Whitebeard was invited by Neptune to Ryugu Castle. As for Reina, he did not go. He had already heard about the fish-man island prophet, Shirley, so he planned to go and see him and ask Shirley if he could make a prophecy for him.

But when he arrived at the Xia family's coffee shop, he saw two maids loitering at the door, not knowing what they were planning to do.

"Hey~ Isn't this Jinbe? What are you doing here?" Reina recognized one of them as Jinbe, whom he had met before, and greeted him with a smile.

"It's Brother Reina! I heard that the Whitebeard Pirates came and drove away the human pirates, and I was wondering if I would run into you. I didn't expect to run into you like this!" Jinbe quickly came over to greet Reina as soon as he saw him.

"What are you doing here? Want to go get some coffee? Come on, it's on me!" Reina said with a smile.

Jinbe hesitated for a moment, then said, "No, Brother Tai has been gone for a long time and hasn't come back, so I wanted to ask Shirley to help me see if he can find out anything about Brother Tai's situation!"

"Oh? Tiger went on an adventure? That's amazing! He always said he wanted to be an adventurer! He must be enjoying some thrilling adventures over there now! No need to rush, your brother Tiger is very strong! By the way, is this your partner? Aren't you going to introduce him?" Although Reina didn't know where Tiger was, he knew that Tiger would return to Fishman Island before heading to Jomaria.

"Ah~ I'm so sorry, this is my fellow countryman, and also Brother Tai's younger brother, his name is Arlong!" Jinbe quickly pulled his companion over and said.

"Arlong?" Reina frowned. He remembered that this was the Arlong whom Nami, one of the main characters, hated so much.

However, Jinpei didn't notice Reina's attitude. He was introducing Reina to Arlong, telling him that it was Reina and his crew who drove away the human pirates.

However, Arlong's attitude towards Reina was not good, but neither Jinbe nor Reina minded, because this was considered to be a sign that the fish-people were still relatively friendly towards humans.

"Let's go in and take a look! I also have some things I want to ask Xia Li!" After introducing themselves, Reina took the lead and walked into the coffee shop.

Jinbe hesitated for a moment before following him inside. Arlong originally didn't want to go in, but seeing Jinbe go in, he followed him in as well.

"Three slices of cake, and some fruit, please!" After finding a seat, Reina ordered three coffees.

Soon, a girl with a shark tail came over carrying three cakes.

"Brother, what brings you here? The shop is so busy, and I haven't seen you come to help!" After placing the cake in front of Reina, the girl actually spoke to Aaron who was standing next to her first.

"As a fish-man, how can I do such a thing? Of course I need to train hard so I can go on adventures with Brother Tiger in the future!" Aaron retorted immediately upon hearing the girl's words.

"Huh? This is your sister?" Reina was taken aback. He really didn't know that Alon had a sister, but judging from Alon's attitude, he didn't seem to be friendly to his sister.

"Sorry, Shirley, I dragged A-Long along with me!" Jinbe said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Brother Jinbe, don't take his side. He's always idling around and never helps with chores, yet he speaks so self-righteously! Humph!" The girl Jinbe called Shirley wrinkled her nose at Arlong and said.

"This...you're Xia Li? That prophet? A Long's sister?" Reina's mind was a bit confused. He didn't know if this was how it was originally written, or if some error had occurred that made it this way.

"That's right, you must be Akame Reina, right? I've heard so much about you. I'm the prophet Shirley!" the girl said to Reina in a serious tone.

"I'm so sorry, my name is Reina! I'm a member of the Whitebeard Pirates. Nice to meet you!" Seeing the other party's serious demeanor, Reina quickly stood up and said politely.

Xia Li glanced at A Long, as if to say, "Look at all the humans, they all know the rules, but you don't!"

Ah Long snorted coldly and turned his head away, refusing to look this way.

"I wonder if you came here to see me about something?" Xia Li looked at Reina and asked with some curiosity.

Actually, it wasn't just Reina who was curious about her; she was also somewhat curious about Reina.

After meeting the Pirate King Roger, she learned that Reina possessed the ability to see the future. Although it differed from her prophecy, it was still a means of peering into the future.

“That’s right, I came here this time to see if you could make a prediction for me too!” Reina said shyly.

"Don't you have the ability to see the future? Why are you asking me?" I asked Xia Li curiously.

"Huh? You know I have the ability to see the future?" Reina was taken aback. Not many people knew that he had this ability. Just look at Jinbe's surprised expression and Arlong's head that had already turned around to show how surprised they were.

“That’s right, I met the Pirate King Roger before. There was a strange samurai on their ship who mentioned you!” Shirley nodded and answered truthfully.

"Ah~ it's Oden! I wonder how that guy is doing now, and whether he's finished dealing with things in Wano Country. I really miss him!" Upon hearing this, Reina immediately knew that the samurai Shirley was referring to was Oden.

"So... Brother Reina, do you really have the ability to see the future?" Jinbe asked, somewhat surprised.

“Yes! My eyes are rather special; they have the ability to see glimpses of some people’s futures, but this ability isn’t something I can control! In other words, who I can see in the future isn’t up to me; it’s up to the eyes!” Reina smiled wryly and pointed to his eyes, saying, “So far, I haven’t seen any of my own reflection among the people I’ve seen, which is why I came here today to try!”

His words also answered Xia Li's question about why he had come here.

“I see… Then please wait a moment, I’ll go get my crystal ball!” Xia Li nodded and politely said to Reina.

"Brother Reina, when you first met us, did you also see our future?" Jinbe hesitated for a moment before asking Reina.

Reina nodded and said, "That's right, I saw it! Do you want to know?"

"You really saw it? What did you see Tiger's future look like?" Jinbe was stunned, not expecting that Reina had actually seen his and Tiger's future.

"Hmm... Generally speaking, I don't tell people what I saw, because the future I saw can be changed, and I'm afraid it would backfire if I told them. But you and Tiger... they shouldn't have anything to do with each other!"

"I saw Tiger from the future in a place I've never been before, seemingly fighting some people in armor, surrounded by flames and fleeing humans, fishmen, and mermaids! He seemed to be saving them!"

After thinking for a moment, Reina said.

"Save humans, fish-men, and mermaids?" Jinbe and Arlong asked in unison.

Reina glanced at Aaron, nodded, and said, "That's right! It's not just fish-men and mermaids! There are humans too!"

"Tch~ We should just save our own people, why do we have to save those humans too? I really don't understand Tiger!" When Aaron saw Reina looking at him, he deliberately turned his head to the side and muttered to himself.

"As expected of Brother Tai!" Jinbe didn't have Arlong's thoughts; he just said with great admiration.

“I see your future too, Jinbe! You’re not going to be an adventurer, but a pirate! And it seems you’ll be a captain!” Reina said with a chuckle.

"Huh?" Jinbe was taken aback. He didn't expect Reina to mention his future. Reina had just said that he wouldn't tell ordinary people even if he saw it.

Just then, Xia Li walked over with her crystal ball and said to Reina, "Now I will try to make a prediction for you, but I cannot guarantee whether I can make the prediction."

“It’s okay… just give it a try!” Reina said with a smile.

So Xia Li closed her eyes and began to stroke the crystal ball in her arms.

Reina looked at Xia Li with curiosity; he had never seen a prophet before.

You should know that this person is a genuine prophet; all of his prophecies have come true. The only prophecy he made for Luffy—that he would destroy Fishman Island—has not yet occurred.

Yes, Reina believes that what Shirley saw was not Luffy's first trip to Fishman Island, but a much more distant future, which also aligns with some of the information he had received.

That is what the true protagonist, the man who inherited the mission of the D clan, must do after arriving at the final island.

The reason Roger didn't do it back then was because the time wasn't right, which is why he said he arrived at the final island too early.
