I, a Celestial Dragon!

Looking at Xia Lulia lying there, Gawain pondered for a moment, then he reached out and rubbed the little female celestial dragon's hair.

Gawain smiled as he let his fingers run through his blond hair.

"Don't think too much, just be yourself. I told you, I don't hate you."

“Brother Gao Wen, I’m not a fool. Even if you don’t hate me now, if I always treat my father and brother like this.

Then you will hate me one day.

Just like my father, he and my mother have been separated for a long time. By the way, Musgarud is my uncle, eh..."

"Oh?"

Gawain was stunned.

"Is your mother Musgarud's sister?"

“Yes, when my father and mother got married, Uncle Musgarud was not what he is now. He was very normal back then.

However, I now feel that you, Brother Gao Wen, appreciate Musgarud's abnormality more.

You'll stop Father from firing at the lower classes, you'll help Uncle Musgarud send the merpeople away, and you'll recruit a whole bunch of thugs who... look a lot stronger than our guards.

Brother, I clearly see you sitting in front of me, but I always feel that we are so far apart..."

Xia Lulia pouted, then she lowered her head and hid her face between her slender arms.

At the same time, Hancock just happened to walk over.

She raised a glass of wine, first glanced at Xia Lulia in dissatisfaction, then smiled at Gawain.

"Sir, they are playing football over there, do you want to join in?"

"No hurry, why aren't you with them?"

"Humph, I won't get together with those stinky men!"

Hancock raised her head and drank a glass of wine with Gawain. Then she hugged Gawain gently, and then went to the swimming pool to take a bath with Shirahoshi.

As for Shirahoshi, she was wagging her tail in the pool and pouting as she made a face at Charlos who was secretly watching her from a distance.

Charlos was frightened by Shirahoshi and he quickly changed his place, but he happened to move to the side of the football field.

Franky was desperately chasing the ball kicked by Lucci, and happened to catch up with Charles.

"Hey, isn't this a super interesting game called Charlos Saint? Do you want to play with us for a while?"

"what?"

Charlos raised his head in dissatisfaction. He was about to curse a few words, but when he turned around, he remembered that he was slapped unconscious by Gawain.

A few months ago, he was able to knock out Gao Wen with one punch.

But now I have been knocked out.

Why did Gawain change so much?

Is it just by playing football with that group of inferior people?

On the other side, seeing Charlos standing there in a daze, Franky curled his lips.

"Forget about it, Saint Charlos, we can just do it ourselves..."

"Wait, lowly pariah, did I ever say I don't play?"

Charlos twisted his chubby body and walked towards Franky.

"Play, huh, but you have to pass the ball to me, otherwise I will kill you, and then marry your mother and sister as my wives!!!"

“Hahahaha, Saint Charlos, I’m an orphan, an orphan, hahahahaha!”

Franky laughed and announced the joining of Charlos to the people playing with the ball. Charlos, out of fear and unwillingness, unexpectedly discovered that football was a lot of fun...

Not to mention Charlos's new world, opposite to Xia Lulia.

Gawain put down his glass and glanced at Xia Lulia, who had now raised her head.

And Xia Lulia looked at Shirahoshi and Hancock who were relaxing in the swimming pool.

"Brother Gao Wen, you have the same hobbies as my stupid brother. You always like those inferior people and fishmen who look pretty."

"Haha, since even you think it's beautiful, why can't I like it?"

Hearing Gawain's words, Xia Lulia pursed her lips, and the look in her eyes as she looked at Hancock became more and more strange.

For a moment, Xia Lulia murmured.

"Yes, she is really beautiful. We are both women, but I blush when I look at her... oh."

Xia Lulia sighed, then she raised her glass, and the waiter behind her slowly refilled her glass.

After clinking glasses with Gawain, Xia Lulia asked seriously.

"If... I mean if, I could live a different life from my father and brothers...

Even though many of my compatriots would dislike me, Brother Gao Wen, would you like Xia Lulia like that?"

"I like you right now, too."

"Will you like me more in the future?"

"Who knows, maybe in the future you will not only dislike me, but also hate me."

Gawain patted Xia Lulia's head.

“That’s it, don’t drink any more, little girl who is not even an adult yet.

I will take you back to Shampooland later. Please take care of your father and brothers on the way. I have the right to hate them, but you are their family after all.

I was proud of the way they forgot about me before, but from your perspective, it was a little bit wrong. "

"Well, I see."

Xia Lulia nodded with a blushing face, then she stood up and took Gawain's arm.

"Then... Brother Gao Wen, can I come to your mansion and sit for a while from time to time?

That little maid of Porgy is quite interesting."

"Sure, you can go anytime. Brooke will welcome you on my behalf, and you can also help me take care of them."

Leaving the last words, Gawain took Xia Lulia and announced the end of the banquet to the whole audience.

As the banquet finally came to an end, Charlos, who had not even kicked the ball a few times, finally ended the football game reluctantly.

Of course, Rozward was also carried down from the figurehead of the Xuanniao ship.

Gawain boarded a landing ship and took them to the Sabaody Archipelago. While enjoying the sea breeze, Rosward grinned and gave Gawain a thumbs up.

"What a great ship. It's the capital of the Seven Waters, right? I'm going there tomorrow, tomorrow!!!"

"No need to bother, Patriarch Rozward. The day after tomorrow, Shampoodi will hold a world gambling competition. The mayor of the Seven Waters City will come to Shampoodi to preside over the event. You can talk to him at the doorstep."

Gawain's reminder made Rozward overjoyed. He patted Gawain's shoulder gratefully.

"That's great, haha. Besides, the gambling contest is also very interesting. I want to participate too. I'm really good at playing mahjong!

I will bring my hand cannon when the time comes, and I want to see who dares to beat my cards, haha!"

"Well, if you want to participate, I'll see you the day after tomorrow."

Gawain said goodbye with a smile, and Rozward and his companions rode on their respective Impel Down slave mounts and headed towards the bubble pod leading to Mary Geoise.

As they gradually went away, Gawain sighed leisurely.

Hearing Gao Wen's sigh, Gion beside him asked softly.

"What's wrong, sir? Haven't you already got Saint Rozward's order? Why are you still sighing?"

“Because I think it’s a pity.”

Gawain shook his head and turned back to the landing ship.

Behind him, Jinbei continued to ask thoughtfully.

"What a shame. Is it because their family only bought one big boat?"

"How could that be the reason?"

Gawain said to Jinbe with a smile.

“I just feel sorry that the most innocent people in this world are the ones who do all kinds of evil and yet never know they are doing evil.

As for me, if I finally succeed in the future, I'm afraid I will ruin them, ah..."

After the words fell, Gawain put aside the thoughts in his mind and continued speaking softly.

“Let’s not talk about that anymore. The big ship has been successfully sold, and its profits will be used to start the expansion of the existing sea train.

In addition, Kalifa, contact Fish-Man Island.

Tell them that the best time for the murlocs to land has arrived.

Have them prepare themselves and bring the first batch of fishmen builders to the Sabaody Archipelago at around 12 noon the day after tomorrow!"

"As ordered!"

Kalifa nodded quickly, but behind Gawain, Jinbei asked worriedly.

“But sir, the day after tomorrow is the opening day of the gambling competition. That day will probably be the day with the largest flow of people in the history of Shampoo Land!

If the murlocs land in a big way on a day like this, will there be any trouble?"

Hearing Jinbei's words, Gao Wen frowned slightly, then nodded.

"All I want is some trouble."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gawain raised his hand and clenched it into a fist in front of everyone.

“Punch away with one punch, lest hundreds of punches come your way.

If the mermen want to live peacefully on land in the future, they must first let the criminals who target the mermen know how powerful they are!

Starting from the day after tomorrow, Sabaody Island will probably be filled with pirates. In order to prove their gambling skills, the world's strongest players will flock here from all over the world, and even from the New World!

Only in such an environment, the announcement of the arrival of the fishmen on the sea was made to everyone, and all the thieves who disagreed with this were forcefully suppressed.

Only then can the murlocs be truly accepted by the whole world and gain at least superficial respect from everyone!"

Chapter 131: The Opening of the Gambling Tournament and the Golden Emperor

Two days later, on Fishman Island.

Neptune shook his big tail and looked nervously at his people in front of him.

In front of him, a hundred thousand fishmen, each with different thoughts, were waiting for Neptune's mobilization.

Neptune raised his right hand.

"My people!"

he shouted.

"Just the night before yesterday, I received a call from Gao Wensheng.

He talked to me for a long time, but all his words revolved around one core.

The murlocs can now go onto land!!!"

"Ow!!!"

As people cheered, Neptune clapped his huge hands.

“After receiving instructions from Gao Wensheng, I have gathered you together, and you will become the first group of fishmen to land on land!

This is a great honor, an honor that the fishmen have enjoyed for hundreds or thousands of years, and there will never be another honor in history that can compare to it!

Our people have recorded your names. From today on, your names and surnames will be shared by our fishmen and the Dragon Palace nation!!!"

Having said this, Neptune paused for a moment, giving his people a moment to breathe.

After the cheers died down a bit, Neptune immediately spoke in a more serious voice.

"but!"
