Arceus' Pirate Journey

Now the fifth son of the Charlotte family, Charlotte Opera, is also leading people to hunt them down.

In comparison, the intensity of the beasts' pursuit is the lightest.

After they were called the Emperors of the Sea, this was the first time that someone had offended three pirate groups at the same time. Although Morgans didn't know why the Beasts were chasing them, it didn't matter anymore.

In addition to major events, such gossip is also his main focus. Naturally, he has to publicize such lucky warriors.

That's why the underground casino opened the odds for him. The content of the bet was which pirate group would kill him. As for escaping, it seemed impossible to them.

Unless he also has the potential to become the emperor of the sea, there is no way he can escape this disaster.

They were almost isolated and helpless in the New World. No one dared to invest in a newcomer and take the risk of offending Beast, Whitebeard, and Big Mom at the same time, so Morgans called him the Lone Hero.

Similarly, as the news spread, news about Mandefisch also reached Fishman Island. Holding the newspaper and wanted poster in his hand, Mandefisch was thinking about how to confront Rusalka.

His previous information has been exposed. As long as Rusalka sees the newspaper, she will understand everything. It’s just that paper is difficult to store on Fishman Island, so new newspapers can still be seen.

Chapter 396: The reason for exposure is too dull

"Brother Manderfesh, haven't you figured out what to do yet?"

Jack looked at the worried Manderfesch and asked him. Since the battle that day, such things have happened from time to time.

Although he was still learning Fishman Karate and Fishman Judo from Haku, he was full of energy. What Haku saw as hard training was as easy as vacation to Jack.

No matter what kind of fighting skills, physical fitness is of paramount importance, and Jack's physical fitness has long been honed by Kaido.

Moreover, he also had some of the things that Yamato enjoyed when he was a child, although his quantity was slightly less than Yamato's unlimited supply.

Such a tempered physique, coupled with the blessing of the King Bronze Elephant, is similar to that of animal-type ability users. Even if they do not enter the transformed state, the ability can still provide a certain blessing to the body.

Jack's physical fitness is stronger than some adult fishmen, so he can get straight to the point. However, due to his living environment, he is now experiencing the water flow, so that he can gradually learn to use it.

"Jack, this is an adult matter, you don't understand. But since you grew up among girls, you probably don't understand this problem either."

After evolving, Manderfesh got rid of the embarrassing situation that his younger brothers were much taller than him, but it was not too embarrassing, as many things within the Beasts Pirates were polarized.

The same is true for height. Led by Kaido, everyone is taller than an ordinary person, but there are also slightly shorter members like Zeraora and Olga.

The genes in this world are strange, so no one cares about height unless in some special occasions. Jack has never thought about this issue, and he doesn't think it is a happy thing to grow up among girls.

Almost no one could understand how he felt when he saw Peggy Wan.

"Hey, all right Jack, you wait here for me. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are in the hands of God."

As he said this, he scratched Jack's head, then knocked on the door and leaned into the room. He thought Jack had a unique popularity with women, and planned to borrow some of his luck.

...

"Kaido... the Second?"

Inside the room, Rusalka looked at the newspaper from where Mandefesh came from, and looked at his title in confusion.

"Kaido is..your father?"

She is not very concerned about news from the outside world, so she is not familiar with the specific situation of humans. Many fishmen and mermaids are like this. Although they are not as isolated from the world as Zuo Wu, the frequency of their contact with the outside world is still very low.

Many children do not understand what land is or what humans are, so their understanding of humans depends on what they see with their own eyes, which is why many people are resistant to humans.

Otohime's daily speeches are intended to educate the children of the fish-men about the situation of humans and land.

"No, I don't know why those people in the World Government came up with such a title. Kaido is the governor of my pirate group, oh, that is, the captain."

He had already told the other party that he was a pirate. Because of the Whitebeard Pirates, Fishman Island was not so hostile to pirates.

"Captain.. is he the same as Uncle Whitebeard?"

"Yeah, but the Governor is definitely better than Whitebeard. He will definitely be the Pirate King."

Considering Whitebeard's current status in Fishman Island, he didn't say anything else, but he firmly believed that Kaido would not lose to Whitebeard.

There is such a personality cult in the royal group today, or it can be said that most pirates have a belief in their captain. The title of Pirate King is the initial goal of many pirates when they go to sea.

However, it is not certain whether the taste will change during the voyage.

Halfway through his words, Mandefisch suddenly stopped, which made Rusalka feel a little strange. In the past, he could never stop talking, so this silence was very abnormal.

After a moment of silence, Manderfesch finally decided to get straight to the point.

"Forget it, Rusalka, I'm sorry, there's something I've been lying to you about."

As he spoke, Manderfesh turned a page of the newspaper, which showed a comparison between his human appearance and his appearance as a user with special abilities.

"I am actually a human being..."

As he spoke, the blue scales on his body gradually faded away, and his figure gradually shrank, finally returning to his original appearance.

However, Rusalka's reaction was completely different from what he expected. She was not angry or anything, but just laughed.

"Ha...haha, you finally said it?"

"You already knew this?!"

"I can't say I know, but I just feel something is wrong. You told me that you were from Fishman Street, and then a few years later you became a pirate, right?"

"Yes...that's right."

"But you don't have any common sense about fishmen. Although I'm not familiar with Fishmen Street, how could a fishman who grew up there not know anything about it?"

At first, Manderfesh would only meet him when he passed by Fishman Island, and he would always bring some new and interesting things from the land, so there were no problems.

However, as Manderfesh stayed in Fishman Island for a long time and the two spent more and more time together, some flaws appeared.

"I felt that you were not a fishman then, but... I also felt your feelings then. I just wanted to see when you would tell me the truth."

There was also a bit of falsehood in Rusalka's words. The truth was that she had already hinted at the other party in various ways. If the other party was a murloc, even a piece of wood should have understood what she meant, but Mandfesh just couldn't understand.

This is the same as how humans don't understand the Minks' Kaluchu. Zeraora learned all about the Minks' habits from Setsuna bit by bit.

Setsuna was very young at the time, and the Minks were even more naive, so they didn't notice anything wrong.

But Rusalka was different. In a sense, Mandfesh, who didn't know how to start, delayed his life for a while.

"I...you..."

"You were very talkative before, why can't you talk now? Didn't I tell you when you asked me about my opinion on humans?

Although I don't like it very much, I don't particularly dislike it, but... you are in the state of a capable person, right?Why do you know how to swim? "

This is also the reason why Rusalka did not point it out. She suspected that Mandfesh was not a murloc, but she was not sure. The fundamental reason was the problem with his ability.

The information in Fishman Island is not so blocked as in Wano Country where people don't even know what a special ability user is. There are even many people who eat the fruit and don't know that they are special ability users.

Therefore, the fact that Mandfesh could swim broke Rusalka's inherent perception.

"Well, that's the great power of that adult. Let me tell you..."

As Manderfisch began to preach the cult of Arceus, Jack outside the door witnessed the passage of time. This Manderfisch spoke very quickly and it was completely different.

Just as he was waiting boredly, a royal queue appeared outside...

Chapter 397: Kojiro Chamber of Commerce's Branch Plan for Fishman Island

The royal family is bound to receive news faster than ordinary people, so Mandfesh's news was naturally seen by the royal family. Unlike Rusalka who knew nothing about the outside world, Neptune, as the king of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, was aware of the situation on the sea.

He and Whitebeard are friends, and Whitebeard has many fishmen under his command, so Whitebeard lent the flag to Fishman Island.

However, Manderfesh's identity is a cadre of the Beasts Pirates. He is not an ordinary pirate at all.

However, this is not the reason why the royal team of the Dragon Palace Kingdom came here. Not to mention that Mandfesh did nothing, even if he really did something, Neptune would not be able to react to it.

By then, the conflict had escalated into a conflict between the two major pirate groups, the Beasts and the Whitebeard. Given the strength of the Ryugu Kingdom, they could only choose to wait for the outcome.

The person who came here was Otohime, and she was not here for business, but to see what the relationship between humans and mermaids was like.

Because only a very few people on Fishman Island agree with her point of view, if a human and a mermaid get together, it means more hope for her.

At this time, Mandfesh was also discussing a problem with Rusalka.

"Rusalka, come with me."

"Walk?"

"What happened today... You saw it too, the young fools from Paradise and some scum from Fishman Street. The island I'm in charge of is very close to Fishman Island. Come live there with me. I can better protect you there."

Even though Baishou planned to set up a mining branch on Fishman Island, Mandfesh was not very comfortable with Rusalka staying here alone. If something like this happened again when he was away, he would not know what to do.

It would be different if we changed to another island. Although we would encounter enemies occasionally, there would be no problems inside and the safety level would definitely be higher than Fishman Island.

"...We'll talk about it next year."

"Next year? Why wait until next year?"

"I will be thirty next year..."

Thirty is a very special age for female mermaids, not because they are approaching their thirties or are aging, but because after thirty, female mermaids will gain a new ability, the ability to transform their fish tails into legs.

Mermen at that age would not have to rely on bubble corals to move in a waterless environment like they do now.

Kokoro of Water Seven is an example. Although she was called a monster grandmother by Luffy, she was also a great beauty when she was young.

Manderfesh knew that a mermaid's tail could turn into legs when she was thirty years old.

Otohime outside the door wanted to see what the two of them looked like, but stopped at the last moment.

"What's wrong, princess? Didn't you want to come and see?"

"There's no need for that. It's better not to disturb them."

Her natural observation Haki detected the two people's joyful auras, and at this time she had no intention of interfering with them.

"And it seems we have a new guest."

Not far away, Kojiro and Pearman appeared here. The things he brought had been sold out. At this time, his business sense told him that Fishman Island was a very good market.

The deep-sea environment means that there is very little communication with the outside world. Whether it is the mermen or the mermaids, including the Dragon Palace Kingdom, they do not have the ability to purchase on land on a large scale.

Most pirates don't carry merchandise. Occasionally, some merchants pass by here, but due to the high risks they face, these merchants charge very high prices for their goods.

The things that Kojiro sold at the market price outside were quickly sold out, which demonstrated the purchasing power here, so he wanted to talk to the real owner of Fishman Island.

Originally, he came to discuss some things with Mandfesh, but he didn't expect to meet Otohime. With the attitude of giving it a try, he was about to stop her, but he didn't expect Otohime to stop directly.

"Wait! Don't come any closer!"

Seeing Kojiro approaching, the surrounding soldiers became nervous. They were also aware of Otohime's fragile body, and a human carrying a weapon was very dangerous to her.

"It's okay, don't be nervous. I didn't sense any ill intentions from him. So, my human friend, do you have anything to say?"

"It's not a big deal. I just want to open a department store on Fishman Island. Besides that, I have some big businesses that are related to the entire Fishman tribe. I wonder if Your Excellency the Princess is interested in this?"

Otohime was of course interested in this matter. Although Whitebeard protected this place, he only protected this place. All his income was invested in the construction of his hometown. He had no extra money to develop the deep-sea Fishman Island.

Moreover, the Whitebeard Pirates did not have the channels and technology. A human wanted to trade with Fishman Island, which was what Otohime wanted most, so at Otohime's invitation, Kojiro followed them to the Ryugu Kingdom.

At the same time Kojiro was heading towards the Ryugu Kingdom, a red fishman appeared near the Fishman Island. He was Fisher Tiger, the fishman that those people wanted to capture before.

Although he was a murloc adventurer, he was captured and enslaved three years ago. Those people from the World Government acted too quickly, even faster than Fisher Tiger himself.

Finally returning to his hometown, Fisher Tiger's face finally showed joy and he swam towards the direction of Fishman Street.

At the same time, the director of the World Government's intelligence analysis department was scolding several of his subordinates.

“Why didn’t you find information about this creature before!

"

Some information was thrown in their faces. It was some biologists' analysis report on Gyarados. It was delayed for several days before they discovered some of the similarities.

"Sir, according to regulations, in order to prevent information leaks, the several branches of the intelligence department cannot exchange information privately without the permission of the department leader..."

"so what?"

"So.. we are responsible for pirates. Marine life is not within our research scope."

"Then why did you report it today?!"

"Because the head of the marine biology department discovered the commonality of this incident during the information exchange, he sent the message over after a secondary analysis..."

Listening to his subordinates' explanation of the department's regulations, veins popped out on the leader of the Pirate Intelligence Department's forehead.

"Then don't you know that when investigating intelligence, you have to collect all relevant intelligence! The rule is that the dead are alive, won't you ask me! Why did a waste like you enter the intelligence department! Give me..."

Just as he was scolding again, his confidant suddenly pulled him.
