The Great Voyage: I Became Nami's Brother at the Start

Chapter 114 What have you all been doing behind my back?

“Brother, Princess Shirahoshi is so cute! Can we invite her to come and play at our place?” During the meal, Eileen pulled Norton to stand in front of Shirahoshi.

The large-sized little girl blinked her adorable big eyes, curiously looking at Norton, looking both cute and charming.

“Of course.” Norton smiled slightly and casually added, “King Neptune, I actually have a bold suggestion, but I don’t know if you would agree.”

“Tell me about it,” Neptune nodded.

"If I told you that I have a way to move Fishman Island to the East Blue and unite it with my Kingdom of Oycot, so that you can also enjoy the sunshine and live happily on the sea, would you be willing?"

The sound faded, people fell silent, and even the fish remained still.

Norton's words caused even the musicians playing to stop and stare at him in disbelief.

Shocked!

This news is absolutely shocking!

It was even more shocking than learning who had killed Queen Otohime.

Moving Fishman Island from here to the East China Sea is simply a pipe dream for them.

To be honest, this area beneath the Red Line is incredibly chaotic. Aside from the allure of mermaids and fishmen, it's also the only route to the New World, where people constantly come to harass them, causing them considerable annoyance and suffering.

If we could really move it to the East China Sea where the bottleneck is, that would be fantastic!

Norton didn't expect the other party to agree as soon as he arrived.

He was just taking a chance, thinking he might as well try his luck and see if the other party agreed.

After a long pause, Neptune shook his head with a wry smile: "Your suggestion is tempting, but..."

Seeing Bai Xing's pleading eyes, Neptune sighed and said, "We've only just met today, and you've already said something so shocking. It's really hard for me to believe. If possible, I'd prefer to get to know you better first, establish the necessary trust and credibility between us, and then discuss this matter."

“That’s right, your caution is justified. There’s plenty of time in the future! Come on, cheers! This is a specialty wine of our Kingdom of Oycot, everyone should have a taste!” Norton smiled calmly and raised his glass.

This time, he brought out a 32° grade baijiu, which was slightly lower in alcohol content. He was worried that if the alcohol content was too high, the mermaids who lived deep in the sea and drank mostly beer wouldn't be able to handle it.

"Hahaha... Good! There's plenty of time! Cheers!" Neptune temporarily suppressed his gloom and pounding heart, raised his glass, laughed loudly, and drank it down.

"Uh...cough cough..." Caught off guard, the Left Minister started coughing.

“Good wine, good wine… uh…” The Right Minister’s eyes lit up, and he praised it highly.

Only Neptune stared blankly, remaining silent for a long time.

Everyone looked at him curiously, waiting quietly.

A few seconds later.

“It is indeed good wine, good wine…” Neptune’s old face turned red when he said this, especially his big nose, which was extremely red.

The meal went fairly well, but just as they were about to finish eating, the gates of the Dragon Palace were suddenly opened.

"boom--"

Several wounded royal guards were thrown in.

"Hahaha... I don't know where you found out that I killed Queen Otohime, but since we've already been exposed, let's make our move now!"

Behind them, Hody Jones, a tall man wearing a pink beret, walked in with a group of his underlings.

“Hody Jones!” Neptune narrowed his eyes, turned around, picked up the Poseidon trident, and floated over: “I haven’t even come looking for you yet, and you’ve already shown up. That saves me the trouble!”

As he spoke, he glanced at the guards with some concern.

Their heads were stained with blood as they lay prostrate on the ground, looking up at their king with eyes full of apology, as if to say, "I'm sorry, my king, we couldn't stop this guy..."

The Right Minister, accompanied by the Dragon Palace guards, arrived beside Neptune, glaring angrily at him.

Behind them, Bai Xing looked at them with tears in her eyes and her face full of fear.

"Don't be afraid, little sister. We're here. These few dishes aren't enough for my brother." Nami stood up and used her small body to shield Shirahoshi.

Seeing this scene, Bai Xing's heart was filled with warmth, and the fear in her heart was dispelled by this warm current.

"Let's go. The plan is a bit ahead of schedule, but it's nothing." Hody Jones waved his hand, while simultaneously popping two dangerous pills into his mouth.

The others nodded silently and also took out the drug and put it in their mouths.

Seeing their actions, Neptune's pupils contracted: "So, you stole the Dragon Palace's secret treasure!"

"You can't just take that kind of stuff!" The Right Minister glared at the other man. "You can't afford its side effects!"

"So what? As long as I can kill you and take control of Mermaid Island, what does this little sacrifice matter?" Hody Jones said with a cold laugh, then vanished from the spot in a flash.

"Watch out!" The Right Minister's pupils contracted, and he hurriedly stepped in front of Neptune to block him.

“Barrier.” From behind, Nokiko calmly crossed her fingers.

"when--"

The next second, Hody Jones's attack struck the impenetrable barrier and was deflected.

Norton slowly rose, glanced at Hody Jones and his henchmen, and said with veins throbbing on his forehead, "How dare you disturb my meal! Unforgivable!"

As they spoke, Bellemere, Irene, Bonney, Nojiko, and Nami lined up and stood together on Norton's right.

"And who are you people?" Hody Jones looked at Norton with a serious expression after his attack missed.

"I am Ranchi Norton, King of the Kingdom of Oicot! Your crimes are clear. It's not too late to kneel and surrender now, otherwise..."

"Don't blame us for being ruthless!"

Norton only told half of what he wanted to say; the other half was spoken by Bonnie, the future queen.

“Have you heard of the Kingdom of Oicot?” Hody Jones squinted and turned to ask his underlings behind him.

Dorsen shook his head, his eyes red: "Never heard of it."

Jeo coldly uttered three words: "Never heard of it."

"Hahaha...did you hear that? None of us..."

"Shave! Slash!"

Before he could finish speaking, Nojiko appeared in front of Hody Jones with a shave and slashed at his chest.

Hody Jones' pupils contracted, and he hurriedly retreated.

Swah——

A flash of light, and a faint slash passed in front of Hody Jones, severing a strand of his hair and a piece of his clothing.

“Show some respect! My brother is the king, who do you think you are?” Nojiko raised her head slightly, pointing at Hody Jones with a flashback, her face full of arrogance.

Hey! (☉_☉)

What raised you all to have such short tempers?

Also, when did you learn to shave?

Nami can now use Moonwalk!

What are you all carrying on your backs?

Norton maintained a stern expression, but his lips twitched as he mentally grumbled.

Chapter 115 The Cunning Old Man

"superior."

Hody Jones waved his hand coldly, and the people behind him stopped watching and rushed forward.

Dorsen went up and swung his hammer at Nokiko.

Jeo slowly disappeared from his spot, actually lying on the ground, activating the Illusionary Carpet, and rushed towards Norton and the others.

Assassins attacking the back row, that's basic stuff.

Bodhidharma, who was skilled at digging, burrowed into the underground of the main hall and launched his attack from there.

The remaining Icarus and the drunken Leopard Hide attacked Neptune and Norton from the left and right respectively.

The Right Minister, not to be outdone, drew his sword and attacked Hyozo.

boom--

Icarus is unscrupulous; his charge is a ruse, his true intention is to launch a ranged attack and ambush.

"This is a good opportunity to practice. Everyone, come on and find your own opponents." Norton said calmly, then waved his hand, and several Vajra Talismans and Might Talismans were affixed to Bellemere, Irene, Bonney, Nojiko, Nami, Neptune, and the Right Minister.

The Vajra Talisman is a defensive talisman, and the Power Talisman goes without saying.

With the blessing of the two talismans, everyone's combat power increased slightly.

"Hey! Hey!"

boom!

Bonnie's Observation Haki flashed, and she suddenly took a step back, stomping her foot on a spot. As she put on white gloves, she looked at the ground and said coldly, "Trying to ambush us? You're dreaming!"

"Ah! When did he appear here?" Bai Xing was startled and quickly backed away.

"Hmph! Woman, your foot has already taken my headbutt, why don't you admit defeat!" Jeo, who was concerned about his image, was still being stubborn and launched a super foot-to-head impact move.

"Oh? Is that so?" With narrowed eyes, Bonnie punched the ground.

Jeo was startled and hurriedly twisted his body, trying to escape.

Unfortunately, Bonnie was too strong and couldn't break free from her feet.

Although Bonnie's long legs and the view under her skirt were quite attractive, Jeo felt that while it looked good, his life was more important.

"boom--"

Still struggling, Jeo watched helplessly as Bonnie's white-gloved right fist gradually enlarged and finally slammed heavily into his body.

"Ah—Pfft—"

Amidst screams, Bonnie quickly retreated, dodging the blood the man spat out.

Immediately afterwards, Jeo's body began to shrink rapidly, shrink, shrink until it became a little doll!

"How could this happen... Waaah..." Jeo sat up, his nose stinging, and he burst into tears.
