Envious gazes shifted constantly with Bai Xing's every step.

Even the stunningly beautiful Hancock was somewhat dazed and lost in thought.

"So many unfamiliar older sisters..." Shirahoshi tensed up under the gaze of Hancock and the others, instinctively moving closer to Reno and whispering, "Lord Reno, are all these older sisters your companions?!"

Renault nodded and said, "That's right, they are all my crew members."

"White Star".

"Shirahoshi, come here quickly."

Neptune and the three princes suddenly stood up and waved to Shirahoshi.

"Father, brother."

Bai Xing responded and quickly swam over.

Looking at his daughter, Neptune burst into tears.

Shirahoshi is clearly the princess of Fishman Island, but she hasn't been to this palace for eight whole years.

“Father, Lord Renault is right. I will no longer have to live in the Hard Shell Tower.”

Bai Xing sobbed softly as she walked along, and indeed, no more weapons flew at her.

"White Star, Vanda Deacon has been killed by Lord Renault. You are free."

Shark Star wept with joy, his voice choked with emotion.

"Lord Renault," Shirahoshi called out weakly, staring at Renault.

"Why are you crying? Van der Deacon is dead. It's something to be happy about," Renault said with a smile, trying to comfort him.

"Come, Shirahoshi, sit down first." Neptune wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and waved to Shirahoshi.

Shirahoshi obediently sat down next to Neptune, and everyone else took their seats as well.

At Neptune's prompting, Shirahoshi picked up a glass of juice, looked at Reno, and said in a soft voice, "Lord Reno... thank you for saving me. I'd like to offer you a toast."

Bai Xing looked at Renault nervously, her gaze darting away, and at the end, her voice was barely audible.

She stayed in the hard-shell tower for eight years.

Suddenly being in such a formal setting, speaking in front of so many strangers, Bai Xing was momentarily at a loss for words.

Princess Shirahoshi is so cute!

I really want to pinch her cheeks.

The girls cupped their faces in their hands, their pupils reflecting Bai Xing's shy and timid expression.

"Don't be nervous. You need to learn to be braver in the future, understand?"

Renault picked up his wine bowl and clinked it against Shirahoshi's glass.

A clear, crisp chirping sound followed.

"Lord Renault, I will try my best."

Bai Xing bit her lower lip lightly and nodded seriously.

“I believe you can do it,” Renault nodded in response.

Bai Xing was taken aback.

Has she been approved by Lord Renault?!

"Yes"

Bai Xing smiled faintly, her eyes curving into crescent moons.

That breathtakingly beautiful face captivated all the girls.

Neptune, Shark Star, Yellow Star, Overturned Star, and many other ministers present all wore smiles of satisfaction.

They hadn't seen Shirahoshi so happy in a long time.

The banquet has officially begun.

At Neptune's signal, musicians, performers, and dancers took to the stage one after another, and began to perform and dance to their hearts' content.

Bright lights illuminated every corner of the hall.

For a moment, a joyful atmosphere enveloped the entire palace.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Renault slowly stood up and said to the group, "You all continue. I'm taking Shirahoshi and Robin to the Sea Forest."

Neptune naturally had no objection and agreed with a smile.

Putting aside the fact that Vanda Deacon is dead, with Reno's strength, no one on the entire Fishman Island can rival him.

It's more than enough to protect Bai Xing.

Shirahoshi and Robin stood up at the same time and followed Reno out of the main hall.

After seeing the three off, the group continued to toast and chat, starting a new round of lively conversation.

Sea Forest

It is an underwater forest located northeast of Fishman Street, also known as the "Ship Graveyard".

This is the burial place of Shirahoshi's mother, Queen Otohime.

In addition, there is a historical text here.

In fact, Fishman Island once had two historical texts.

One of them is an apology written by Joy Boy of the D clan to the Little Mermaid.

The other piece is the historical text of the red road sign, one of the four pieces.

But for some unknown reason, the historical text on that red road sign disappeared over time.

Perhaps it was lost, or perhaps it was deliberately hidden away.

"Dear Mother, I'm so sorry I haven't been able to visit you all these years."

"I have some good news for you. Lord Renault helped me defeat the bad guys, so I no longer have to live inside the Hard Shell Tower."

"With Lord Renault here, Shirahoshi will no longer be bullied by any bad guys."

"Dear Mother, I really, really miss you."

Shirahoshi sat with her fishtail coiled up in front of Queen Otohime's grave, her fingers interlaced in front of her, tears like pearls streaming down her face.

Renault, standing to the side, looked at the crying Shirahoshi with some heartache.

She carries too much on her shoulders.

Eight years ago, Carmelo the shark witnessed Princess Otohime being assassinated by Hody Jones and told Shirahoshi about it.

However, in order to keep Queen Otohime's last words, "Do not hate your enemies," Shirahoshi has never told Neptune and her three brothers the truth.

Instead, they chose to be alone and silently endure everything.

Bai Xing's kindness is truly touching.

"captain"

As if sensing Renault's unusual mood, Robin couldn't help but take his arm.

"I'm fine." Renault smiled slightly at Robin.

"Lord Renault, let's go."

After pouring out all her feelings, Shirahoshi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, composed herself, and swam to Reno's side.

Now that she's free from constraints, she can come here anytime to confide in her mother.

"Shirahoshi, let's go help Robin find the Poneglyphs first. I'll give you a gift later."

"it is good."

Bai Xing nodded obediently, secretly wondering what kind of gift Renault had mentioned.

In the center of the Sea Forest.

Renault successfully located the historical text.

"Joyboy"

Robin gently stroked the ancient characters on the stone tablet with his fingers, murmuring softly.

The above is clearly Joy Boy's apology.

Robin carefully read and interpreted each word.

Bai Xing and Renault stood quietly to one side, waiting patiently.

at the same time.

After getting tired of shopping, Nami and her group went to a coffee shop.

Mermaid Cafe.

Shop manager Xia Li is a great blue shark mermaid.

Compared to being a coffee shop manager, she is best known as a fortune teller.

It is said that her divination and predictions were 100% accurate, hence she was respectfully called Lady Shirley.

In this respect, he's far more capable than some guy who only knows how to play tarot cards.

"I've already heard about what happened with Ah Long."

The mermaid Xia Li, who has a full bust, gradually dimmed her eyes when she mentioned A Long.

She and Ah Long are half-siblings.

It was unexpected that after Arlong left the Sun Pirates, he would actually occupy the East Blue and act like a tyrant.

When Nami learned about Arlong's relationship with Shirley, she was equally surprised.

She came here, naturally, on Renault's orders.

I never expected that Xia Li and A Long would have such a relationship.

"I'm really sorry. Ah Long has a lot of hostility towards humans, which is why he did such an outrageous thing."

Shirley looked at Nami with a slightly apologetic expression.

"Don't worry about it, it's all in the past, and Ah Long has received the punishment he deserved."

Nami smiled slightly, relieved.

Death is like a lamp going out.

All past grievances vanished with Ah Long's death.

She was a person who clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment, so naturally she wouldn't hold a grudge against Shirley.

"Mrs. Shirley, I've heard that you are very skilled in divination. Could you please do a divination for me?"

Nami suddenly changed the subject, smiling slyly.

"No need to be so polite, just call me Xia Li."

Nami's open-mindedness made Shirley feel very fond of her.

"Those are just other people's praises. If you have anything you want me to tell you, I can help you."

"I want to do a divination." As if remembering something, Nami suddenly pouted and muttered, "Can you do a divination for me? How many women will Reno have in his life? And who will they be?"

Upon hearing this, Tashigi, Weiwei, and the others who were enjoying their coffee nearby lit up.

All eyes turned to Xia Li.

Clearly, they were also eager to hear the answer to this question.

“Well… okay.” Shirley was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

She had naturally heard the rumors about Renault's womanizing ways.

The other party is very happy to take in women.

In every place he went, a beautiful woman would fall into his hands.

Nami's ability to perform divination was not surprising to her.
