The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

"Lei Ying—!"

As Bai Ye reached out and grasped, the lightning that had been lingering in the sky instantly fell.

"Zzzzzzzzz—!"

! ”

The sound of lightning and thunder resounded through the sky, and the intense light engulfed the entire sea area in front of them.

Jack Sparrow and Will Turner, who were watching the show, involuntarily closed their eyes to avoid being blinded by the lightning.

When Jack Sparrow and Will Turner felt the light dimming and opened their eyes, they saw that the mermaids on the sea surface were all floating belly up from being electrocuted!

Then look at Bai Ye.

Lightning crackled at his fingertips, his eyes were blue with a hint of white, and he exuded a detached and ruthless aura, as if he were the god of thunder.

Jack Sparrow ripped off his earplugs, looking utterly shocked.

"General, you're... way too strong! I've been sailing the seas for decades and have seen quite a few wizards and dark wizards, but I've never seen anyone as powerful as you."

Without the mermaid's interference, Angelica and Elizabeth both regained their senses, and their gazes towards Bai Ye... naturally became even more intense.

Someone as handsome and powerful as Bai Ye is like a piece of Tang Sanzang's flesh among women's dating pools—everyone wants a bite.

"Alright, let's pull all the crew members and mermaids aboard!"

The lightning on Bai Ye's body dissipated, and he returned to his usual appearance, saying...

Most of the skeletons that fell into the sea were also stunned by the lightning of the White Night. Fortunately, not all the crew members of the Black Pearl had time to jump into the sea. There were still some left on the ship, and they were all fine after the mermaid's song faded away.

The skeletons and mermaids were quickly pulled ashore.

The mermaids were put in solitary confinement in the Black Pearl's cells.

Bai Ye, Angelica, and Elizabeth Iris arrived, ready to interrogate these mermaids.

"So this is what mermaids look like!"

Angelica looked at the mermaids with curiosity. As Blackbeard's daughter, she was quite knowledgeable, but she had never seen a real mermaid, such a legendary creature.

"As expected of fish known for their beauty, each one is exceptionally beautiful!"

Needless to say, Yin Lisha felt even more strongly that her decision to follow Bai Ye on this adventure was the right one.

Aside from Bai Ye herself, she inherently possessed a yearning for the sea. Being raised as a good girl by Governor Swann for so many years only slightly delayed the development of her rebellious nature.

As Bai Ye and his companions approached, the captured mermaids revealed a frenzied demeanor completely different from their beauty. Rows of sharp fangs, extremely fine and dense, gleamed with a chilling light, seemingly warning Bai Ye and his group not to come any closer.

Hmm, Bai Ye felt that if a man were to take a bite out of those teeth, he would probably lose all happiness for the rest of his life.

Of course, Bai Ye wasn't afraid. He was a user of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, which allowed him to automatically transform into his own element when in danger. So he could let these mermaids bite him without worry.

"According to legend, mermaids are emotionless creatures, more like fish than humans. Looking at their fearless, indifferent eyes, the legend seems to be true!"

Angelica said.

"You humans are the truly vicious and cruel creatures!"

Suddenly, among the imprisoned mermaids, a young-looking mermaid, seemingly unable to bear Angelica's animalistic gaze, retorted sarcastically.

As soon as the little mermaid spoke, the other mermaids covered her mouth and pulled her behind them, their expressions changing.

"Huh? You guys can actually talk? And you're speaking English?"

Angelica was surprised. She had really thought that these mermaids were incapable of communicating. After all, if mermaids could really communicate with humans, then they should be closer to humans than fish. So how could they have developed the habit of eating human flesh?

"Wait a moment!"

Yin Lisha pointed to the legs of the mermaids and said:

"Look!"

It turns out that as the water flowed away from the mermaids' legs, their original fish tails gradually receded and evolved into human legs.

Now, these mermaids are indistinguishable from humans.

"that's amazing!"

Lisa Yi exclaimed in amazement:

"They can freely switch between fish tails and human legs, which means that if mermaids blend into human society, no one will be able to detect their abnormality."

"Or perhaps, some mermaids have already infiltrated human society without anyone noticing, which would explain why they can speak English."

It has to be said that Yin Lisha's imagination is truly extraordinary!

Bai Ye looked at the mermaids who were barely able to stand and said:

"Things might not be as simple as you make them out to be. Mermaids, mermaids, their race is mermaids, not humans. Even if their fish tails can transform into legs, walking like humans must have its drawbacks."

"The world is always fair. If fate opens a window for you, it will inevitably close another. There is no such thing as a truly perfect being."

Indeed, just as Bai Ye thought, although mermaids' fish tails can transform into legs, they find it difficult to walk on their own. When they try to walk, their feet feel as painful as if they are stepping on awls. Therefore, mermaids' legs are more like decorations, used to facilitate communication with male humans at certain times.

“Little girl, you just said that we humans are the vicious and cruel creatures? That’s not right. We just arrived at Bailang Bay, did nothing, and were lured into the water by your songs. We almost jumped in and were killed by you, and now you’re turning around and accusing us of being vicious and cruel?”

Angelica looked at the mermaid who had just spoken.

"Heh!" The little mermaid broke free from the restraints of the surrounding mermaids, sneered, and said, "You greedy humans, you know perfectly well what you want to do at White Wave Bend. Even if we don't attack you first, you will still hunt us down. We are just striking first to gain the upper hand!"

"We do want your mermaid tears, but calling it hunting and killing is going a bit too far."

Angelica said:

"If you hadn't attacked us first, we might not have chosen to harm you. We might have just gotten some of your tears through a peaceful deal."

"We don't trust you greedy, despicable, and vicious humans!"

The little mermaid shouted.

Incidentally, she also mentioned why mermaids are so hostile towards humans.

Long, long ago, mermaids were originally gentle, non-aggressive creatures. When the first fleet sailed through White Wave Bend, the mermaids treated them with courtesy, and several even fell for the handsome sailors.

However, a mermaid who fell in love inadvertently revealed the secret of the Fountain of Youth to the sailors, and thus misfortune struck.

After learning the secret of the Fountain of Youth, the sailors' greedy nature was revealed. In their quest for immortality and to obtain the mermaids' tears, they relentlessly hunted and killed them, nearly bringing about the extinction of the mermaids.

Under such oppression and aggression, the mermaids transformed from self-defense into revenge.

That war with the sailors left the mermaids with a painful lesson, recorded in their annals. From that time on, the mermaid kingdom adopted a new rule: any sailor encountered must be eliminated!

From then on, any ship that dared to approach White Wave Bend, once it heard the mermaid's song and was bewitched, would be dragged into the water and eaten alive by the mermaids.

“Uh…” Angelica said, “It sounds like what they’re talking about is something that humans who roam the high seas would do.”

In this era, those who dared to go out to sea and sail were basically risking their lives, because the risks were too great. All sorts of natural disasters, storms, tsunamis, fog, and all sorts of unusual places could take the lives of the crew at any time.

Therefore, those who dare to go to sea are risking their lives for wealth and status. So when they hear about the temptation of immortality, they will definitely risk their lives to seize it.

The originally gentle and harmless mermaids were nearly wiped out, which must have created a deep-seated hatred between them and humans.

“We don’t know what kind of people you’ve encountered before, but we’re definitely not the kind of people who kill indiscriminately.” Yin Libai thought for a moment and tentatively said, “You attacked us first, so logically we should retaliate in kind. However, we can give you a chance. As long as each of you mermaids sheds a single tear for us, we’ll let you go. How about it?”

The way these mermaids looked at Yin Lisha was like they were looking at an idiot. If they still trusted humans so much, they would have been wiped out long ago.

Angelica and Elizabeth both wanted to obtain some of the legendary mermaid tears from these mermaids. Unfortunately, these mermaids had long lost all trust in humans, and no matter how much Angelica and Elizabeth threatened or tempted them, they could not sway them in the slightest.

"Forget it, they're stubborn and you can't persuade them with words." Bai Ye yawned and said, "It's already very late, why don't we get some sleep and think of something tomorrow?"

After thinking it over, Lisa Yi and Angelica realized that this was the only option.

However, it wasn't without its gains. At least Bai Ye and the others learned through subtle questioning that the very bold little mermaid's name was Selena, the daughter of the mermaid queen, and the little princess of the mermaid clan.

……

The next day.

Bai Ye was still sleeping in her room.

Then I heard someone banging on the door.

"General, General, come out here right now! Something terrible has happened!"

"Who the hell is this, disturbing my sleep?"

Bai Ye, who was very grumpy when she woke up, stormed out of the bedroom door:

"If it's not something serious and you're just messing with me, you're dead."

When Bai Ye stepped out of the room, she was stunned, because the sea in front of the Black Pearl was teeming with mermaids.

Especially the mermaid queen wearing a crown, so beautiful and alluring, that she was breathtaking. Even Bai Ye couldn't help but say:

"Madam, you wouldn't want anything to happen to your daughter, would you?"

Chapter 198 When dealing with such evil spirits, there's no need to talk about chivalry; let's all fight side by side!

Selena, who was captured by Bai Ye and his group, is the daughter of the Mermaid Queen. So, after only one night, the Mermaid Queen came to settle scores.

This queen of the mermaid kingdom is, in fact, the only mermaid who can live forever. She has lived for thousands, even tens of thousands of years since the birth of the mermaid.

When she was still a little mermaid, she was infatuated with a prince and was even willing to give her life for him. However, the moment she turned into sea foam, her beloved mother sacrificed her own body to give her a second life.

Having been given a new lease on life, she awakens from her love affair, and guilt and gratitude towards her mother occupy her entire life.

Upon hearing Bai Ye's words, Her Majesty the Queen's eyes flashed with anger:

"You despicable human, are you threatening me?"

"The Sirens will never accept any threats!"

“Before I lose my temper, I can give you a chance to release Selena and the others you have captured. I can give you a way out and let you go back the way you came.”

As the mermaid queen delivered her impassioned speech, the mermaids floating in the sea gleamed with a shared hatred for the enemy. It seemed that as long as the queen gave the order, all the mermaids would rush forward one after another to fight against Bai Ye and his companions.

“Releasing Selena and the others isn’t impossible, but it can’t be you letting us go back the way we came,” Bai Ye said with a smile. “We’ve traveled thousands of miles to find the legendary Fountain of Youth. If you’re willing to give us some of your tears and take us to the Fountain of Youth, we will release Selena and the others.”

It must be said, she truly lives up to her title as queen.

Her slender figure is perfectly proportioned, with curves in all the right places and a slender waist. Her graceful curves and captivating movements create a striking visual impact.
