He is a user of the "Hand-to-Hand" Devil Fruit, which allows him to aim his weapons at targets.

Looking at the dazzling array of weapons on the steel wall, one can imagine that over the years, the soldiers of Dragon City could have collected enough weapons to form a combat force.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be where Princess Shirahoshi lives."

There's a reason why Snow White lives here.

When Shirahoshi was six years old, his mother, a Class B princess, was assassinated by Hody Jones, and Vander D'Arc took the opportunity to activate the Hand-Hand Fruit's power.

He touched Shirahoshi with his hand, and from then on, Shirahoshi became his assassination target.

Shirahoshi was forced to build this house to escape Vander Okun's attacks, and she moved in.

Otherwise, he would definitely have been killed. It has to be said that Bai Xing is really unlucky. He is so young and has to be locked up here all the time, never seeing the light of day. It was all done by that damned guy.

Bai Luo and Luffy arrived at the door quickly.

The two of them pushed open the door and went inside.

Since this is Dragon Palace 480, there are usually no guards here.

When they opened the door and came in, they found the room was pitch black.

However, Luffy's mind was clearly not on Shirahoshi, because he came here to find food.

"Hehehehehehehehehehehehehe, is there really food here??"

Chapter 971 The Obedient Momousagi

Just as Luffy opened his mouth to speak, a huge figure began to tremble.

Bai Xing just took a nap and is now awake.

"Who is it? Is it here to deliver food?"

A weak, soft voice suddenly rang out in the space, and soon the lights were turned on.

A massive figure rubbed his eyes as he climbed out of bed.

"Why are you here so early today? You usually deliver lunch in the afternoon. Why are you here at noon? And I'm not even that hungry yet."

There was a hint of sadness in her gentle tone.

This person is none other than Shirahoshi, the mermaid princess of Ryugu Palace.

Since Bai Luo was imprisoned here 8 years ago, no one has been able to leave.

Apart from the food delivery staff, no one else came in.

Shirahoshi has never had the chance to interact with others, and this has continued until now.

Bai Xing thought it was someone bringing food.

But after talking for a while longer...

"Wow, it's so big!!"

A startled and unfamiliar voice rang out in the room.

Luffy's eyes widened in disbelief.

Upon hearing the unfamiliar voice, Shirahoshi slowly raised her head and quickly spotted Bai Luo and Luffy in the room.

"Who are you? Who are you?"

Shirahoshi kept backing away out of fear, her eyes filled with terror.

"Who are you? Are you trying to harm me? Get out of here right now! You're not here to hurt me, are you?"

"I know you. You must be Daken's men. You're here to kill me on his orders, right?"

Just as he finished speaking, a huge shark emerged from beside Shirahoshi.

Then he stood in front of Shirahoshi, baring his fangs at Luffy and Shirahoshi.

They alerted the two men, signaling them not to approach any further.

"Who are you talking about? I don't know him. I don't know that guy named Deakin."

Luffy scratched his head. "Hehe ...

"Really? If you're not Daken's men, then who are you?"

Bai Xing asked curiously.

"Hehehehehehehe, I'm Luffy. The man who's going to become the Pirate King."

Luffy was also giving his standard introduction.

"I am the vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, my name is Bai Luo, and I am also a blacksmith."

Although Shirahoshi didn't know what a blacksmith was, since the other party (Moqian) had already introduced himself, he politely followed suit and introduced himself as well.

"Hahahaha, hello everyone! My name is Shirahoshi, and I am the mermaid princess here. My good friend is Mecaro."

Chapter 972 Shirahoshi's Attachment

 "Hehehehehehehehehe, hello there! Are you the Little Mermaid?"

"This looks really fun!!!"

Just as the group finished introducing themselves, a whirlwind-like voice rang out behind the two of them.

Bai Luo quickly realized what it was.

After all, he has been subjected to such persecution for the past few years.

"Here he comes again!!"

"Is it that guy again? Why does he want to kill you?"

Luffy didn't need to look to know what it was, because they had already detected it using Observation Haki.

Bai Luo casually swung his hand and sent the axe flying.

Before Shirahoshi could even react, the giant axe vanished.

His pupils were filled with shock and disbelief.

"Can you tell me about that axe? Why were those axes flying towards your body?"

“We just saw each other, and I didn’t expect to see each other again so soon.”

Luffy asked curiously.

“It was thrown by a guy named Van O’Deacon; he wanted to kill me.”

Upon hearing Luffy's words, Shirahoshi began to explain.

"Who is that guy, Van Da Deikun? Do you have a grudge against him?"

Soon, Shirahoshi explained the whole story to Bai Luo and Luffy.

"Hehehehehehe, I see. But I'm hungry now. Do you have any food here?"

"Yes, yes. I have plenty of food here if you're hungry."

Kind-hearted Shirahoshi quickly brought out the food, all of which was delicious.

Because Shirahoshi is very large, the food items are both large in size and plentiful.

"Hehehehehehehehe, then I won't be polite."

Upon seeing the food, Luffy's eyes lit up and he pounced on it.

They began to feast without regard for their image.

"Lord Bai Luo, are you from outside?"

Shirahoshi, who hadn't interacted with outsiders for many years, also looked at Bai Luo and Luffy with great curiosity.

"Yes, we are pirates, and we did come from outside."

Bai Luo then explained gently.

"Are you pirates? I've heard that pirates are all bad people, so are you bad people too?"

Bai Luo: ....

Bai Xing blinked his big, bright eyes and asked with some curiosity.

Bai Luo was speechless for a moment.

This Shirahoshi is so innocent.

Is this really a question?

If they really are bad people, then they're going to do something to Shirahoshi right now.

"Hahaha, you should decide for yourself. If you think we're bad people, then we're bad people. If you think we're good people, then we're good people."

"I don't think you guys are bad people. You seem like good people."

For the next period of time, Bai Xing clung to Bai Luo like a little girl who knew nothing, asking him many questions.

Chapter 973 The Beauty of the Lark

While Bai Luo and Bai Xing were talking, Bai Luo quickly sensed it using his Observation Haki.

King Neptune, accompanied by his three princes and two ministers, arrived at the Dragon Palace. They had just entered the gate and were now heading towards the banquet hall.

"Hahahaha, Bai Xing, your father and your brother have returned. We're leaving now to meet them."

"Lord Bai Luo, are you leaving now? Can't you stay here a little longer?"

There was a hint of reluctance in Bai Xing's tone.

"Hahahaha, I know you're very reluctant, but it's too late now. After all, it was your father who invited us here. Now that your father is back, we naturally have to go and see him."

"However, if you'd like, you can come with us."

Bai Xing, who was already feeling wronged and on the verge of tears, was stunned for a moment after hearing these words.

"Can I go out too? But if I go out...~..."

Bai Xing hesitated for a moment.

After all, he could be attacked at any moment.

If he were to be hit by axes and clubs as soon as he went outside, he would truly die with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

"Haha ...

"I'll protect you. I'll knock anything away."

"Lord Bai Luo"

Upon hearing Bai Luo's words, Bai Xing lost all control.

"Can you protect me?"

"Yes, don't worry."

"Hehehehehehe don't worry, we're here to make sure you don't get hurt."

Immediately afterwards, Bai Luo and Luffy took Shirahoshi and left.

When they returned, Zoro and the others were resting.

After all, we just went through a big battle, and everyone is exhausted, so let's take a rest.

"Who is this guy? Where did you bring him back from?"

0··Requesting flowers····

Zoro asked, puzzled.

"Hehe ...

Bai Luo enthusiastically introduced the two parties.

"Who is she???"

Just then, Robin and Nami returned to the area, and upon arrival, they saw a beautiful mermaid.

0 ....

"He is the mermaid princess of this place."
