Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

Then he arranged for the rest of the people to guard this only route and left first.

Most pirates would actually find it quite difficult to deal with the fully armed Fishman Island guards.

With the added intimidation of Shiraishi Osamu, many pirates, though unwilling, still had no choice but to pay the toll.

However, Shiraishi Shu knew that these were just some small pirate crews at the moment.

Let alone Zhao Liaohao in the Grand Line, he's just average even in the four seas.

We still need to wait for a truly powerful pirate crew to come and cause trouble.

Only when Bai Shixiu uses lightning to suppress it can it truly have a deterrent effect.

However, such a great pirate crew is rare, so Shiraishi Shu didn't wait around foolishly. Instead, he told others to contact him immediately if anything happened.

The first month after the toll booths opened.

There are still more than ten days until the second month.

Chapter 0200:

Many pirates ahead of them were dissatisfied with Fishman Island's domineering ways and were unwilling to pay tolls.

However, seeing the numerous soldiers on Fishman Island, they still had no choice but to reluctantly pay.

But at this moment, a huge ship needs to pass through Fishman Island.

The flag fluttering above belongs to the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Toll? Hahaha, I, Whitebeard, have never heard of such a thing. Get out of my way." Whitebeard laughed loudly, completely ignoring the fishman's request for a toll. Whitebeard had roamed the vast ocean and had never heard of a toll.

February

No one dared to collect his toll.

At this time, Whitebeard was at the peak of his life, possessing immense strength and dominating the Grand Line.

Even on the Grand Line, where powerful figures abound, Whitebeard has yet to find a single 723 who can rival him.

Many people call Whitebeard the strongest pirate in the world.

Some people have even called Whitebeard the strongest man in the world.

The reason he hasn't been recognized as the world's strongest man yet.

It's because the former Marine Admiral, Osamu Shiraishi, who is known as a monster, is still alive.

However, Whitebeard didn't care about this, as he had absolute confidence in his own strength.

He didn't care about those empty titles; all he cared about was his family.

At this point, he was threatened by some fishmen to pay a toll, but of course he refused to listen.

He waved his hand, and Marco, the first division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, stepped forward.

They beat up all the merman soldiers who were blocking their way and demanding tolls.

Then the Whitebeard Pirates stormed in head-on.

Behind them, many pirate ships that were originally queuing to pay also took the opportunity to rush through.

"Whitebeard? I'll be right there."

Shiraishi Osamu quickly received news that Whitebeard had led his men to force their way in.

Although the opponent is currently the world's strongest pirate, Whitebeard, who is at his peak.

However, Osamu Shiraishi has no intention of giving the other party face or making an exception.

It is absolutely impossible to succeed in Fishman Island without paying money.

Shiraishi Osamu moved with incredible speed, like a shooting star, and quickly arrived at the scene, intercepting the Whitebeard Pirates ahead.

Marco the Phoenix, the second-in-command of the Whitebeard Pirates and the first division commander, stepped forward.

"It's actually a human? There's no way we'll pay a toll. Get out of the way."

"Immortal Marco said casually."

He clearly did not recognize Shiraishi Xiu's identity at this moment.

Now that he has taken off his navy coat, Osamu Shiraishi has not appeared in public for a long time, not even on the arrest warrant previously issued for him by the World Government.

The photo used is from a long time ago, when Osamu Shiraishi had just been promoted to Admiral.

At that moment, Shiraishi Osamu was wearing a black uniform, and Marco didn't recognize him at first.

They just thought he was an ordinary person from somewhere.

"Oh? Unfortunately, what I meant to say is that it's impossible not to pay the toll. Everyone who passes through Fishman Island must pay the toll."

Shiraishi Xiu said with a smile.

"Trouble, since that's how it is. You might as well collapse too."

Marco the Phoenix shook his head, feeling that the young man in black in front of him was really too tactless.

Their Whitebeard Pirates are now known as the strongest pirate crew in the world.

They're already being kind by not causing trouble for others, yet some people dare to charge them tolls.

This is truly audacious and reckless; ignorance is bliss.

Blue flames erupted behind Marco, transforming into wings that flapped behind him.

Chapter 0201: Marco

In just a moment, he flashed and appeared in front of Shiroshi.

Marco threw a punch without even using Armament Haki.

In his view, these ordinary people were not worth him using his full power.

Just knock him unconscious.

boom!

With a soft thud, and to Marco's surprise, Shiraishi Osamu calmly extended his arm and took Marco's fist head-on.

"Haven't you eaten, Marco?"

A soft laugh rang out.

The next moment, Marco felt an immense force coming from the opposite side, as if a mountain was pressing down on him head-on.

Marco was sent flying backwards, but he flapped his wings and quickly regained his balance in mid-air, preventing himself from crashing into the ship behind him.

"This guy, he's got some skill."

Marco finally shed his previous nonchalance, and a hint of seriousness flashed in his eyes.

"However, it's impossible for us Whitebeard Pirates to pay tolls based on this alone."

As soon as he finished speaking, Marco's blue flames surged, and he vanished from his spot in an instant.

The next moment, Marco appeared behind Shiraishi Shu, and his fist, wrapped in jet-black Armament Haki, swung out fiercely.

boom!

The air trembled violently, and ripples spread outwards in concentric circles.

Marco's fist passed precisely through Shiraishi Osamu's body.

"Hmm? No sensation of touch?"

Marco wasn't surprised; instead, he frowned and was suddenly startled.

The figure of the man in black slowly dissipated from the spot, like a mirage, all of it was just an illusion.

boom!

Shiraishi Osamu kicked Marco from above, sending him crashing down.

"I've already said it, your Whitebeard Pirates must pay your toll today."

Shiraishi Xiu shook his head and said casually.

He didn't take the young Marco seriously at all.

Of course, even Marco in the future, Shiraishi Osamu will not take him seriously.

"hateful."

Marco gritted his teeth, unable to believe that the enemy had sneaked up behind him like this.

The blue flames on his body turned into cyan flames, and the spot where Bai Shixiu had kicked him quickly recovered.

It was as if nothing had happened.

0. Requesting flowers.......

"The phoenix, you know."

Shiraishi Xiu murmured.

Marco's Devil Fruit is a Zoan-type Mythical Zoan, the Bird-Bird Fruit, in Phoenix form.

It is a Zoan-type Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit user, even rarer than the Logia-type Devil Fruits possessed by Bizarkaski and Borsalino.

It is also one of the few Devil Fruits in the One Piece world that allows flight.

Unlike Logia-type Devil Fruit users, Marco cannot transform his body into an element; he has his own physical form.

However, the blue-green flames enveloping his body, which appeared to burn fiercely like raging flames, did not actually possess the characteristics of ordinary flames.

Although it cannot spread to burning objects, it is called 'Flame of Regeneration', which can accelerate wound healing, nullify the opponent's attacks, and even regenerate the body.

It is an extremely powerful Devil Fruit ability.

This is why Marco is known as the Phoenix, due to his powerful recovery and regeneration abilities.

Marco is like a phoenix, difficult to deal with.

Marco, whose spot had just been kicked by Shiraishi Shu, quickly recovered. He flapped his blue wings, soared, and swooped down towards Shiraishi Shu once again.

Chapter 0202: Not Taken Seriously

At this moment, Marco was almost entirely enveloped in blue flames, which extended outwards and formed the shape of a giant bird-like creature.
