Chapter 393
Back to the night when Hoshigaki Kisame and Admiral Artoria Pendragon first met, the fishmen did not expect that the newly appointed acting marshal looked like an underage blonde girl. How could such a person rebuild the country and pull the broken old navy out of the rubble?
"The marshal is really unconventional. He actually wants to personally receive a fishman"
"The fishmen are also objects that can be won over. The marshal has no racial prejudice"
Esdeath is nearly two meters tall, but the person she is talking to is a dwarf. From the front height comparison, it is just as tall as a woman's knee.
Being short is not a disadvantage. Sometimes it is an advantage. He is fully wrapped in a purple combat suit, but it can still be seen that he has the characteristics of the fur tribe. The exposed skin is hairy and the navy justice cloak specially made for him is draped behind him.

"We will guard them outside the door and be available whenever they are called."
Admiral Kenan Thunder Rat and Admiral Esdeath Rabbit Hunter stood on the left and right sides of the door of the Navy Marshal's room, acting as door gods for Altria Pendragon, so that the Navy Marshal would not be disturbed by any external factors during the conversation.
After entering the Marshal's office, Kisame Hoshigaki carefully observed with his own eyes what kind of charm the knight girl sitting in the main seat, the newly appointed acting marshal, had, and could command the two top masters outside the door at any time.
"There is a chair next to you. If you want to talk to me while standing, I respect your opinion."
Altria put down the brush in her hand and pinched her sore fingers. The Navy had a huge backlog of documents, and many crucial decisions required the acting marshal to personally approve them. The knight girl was busy from morning to night and had no free time at all.
However, the acting marshal was delighted to meet such a powerful fishman on the way during this routine inspection mission.
After the two sides exchanged names, the tense atmosphere eased. Hoshigaki Kisame did not intend to continue to beat around the bush with the acting marshal and asked directly: "You sent two admirals to invite me on board. It should not be as simple as talking to me. If you have anything to say, just say it directly and don't waste everyone's time."
At first, the fishman thought that the navy wanted to get the secret of the Wet Bone Forest from him. Hoshigaki Kisame was most afraid that this matter would be exposed. The unknown deep-sea ruins must not appear in front of humans.
Hoshigaki Kisame has the clearest understanding of human greed and ambition. If humans get power that does not belong to them, they will definitely squander it without cherishing it, which will eventually lead to an unpredictable disaster.
Altria's eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. She noticed that Hoshigaki Kisame had always been very vigilant and did not want outsiders to know some of the secrets of the fishmen. It would be strange if the acting marshal was not curious about the fact that such a powerful fishman could be cultivated?
The Knight King suppressed his strong curiosity and led the topic to a hero, "Hoshigaki Kisame, I am not interested in your secrets. Every person who joins the navy has a past that is hard to look back on. I want to know more about what you think of the future of the fishmen and what you think of the hero of your tribe, Fisher Tiger."
Fisher Tiger, a fishman, has been dead for nearly 20 years, but his glorious deeds and glorious image have been widely circulated on Fishman Island. Abandoning any race, he is indeed a fishman hero who liberated slaves.
"Didn't Fischer Tiger, the boss, be killed by your navy? The fishmen will never forget this scar."
Although Hoshigaki Kisame is not a member of the Sun Pirates, he has heard of Fischer Tiger's deeds. During a period of confusion, he was the only spiritual support for the fishmen.
Fischer Tiger's influence has been constantly erased in the human world. The Celestial Dragons want everyone to forget that a fire once ignited the holy land of Marijoa, and a large number of slaves were let go by a fishman.
This shame has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the God Clan. Fishman Island has also been affected, and even for a period of time, it was almost abolished as a member country. Since the navy is unreliable, King Neptune's seeking help from the big pirates outside is a helpless choice.
Speaking of the future of the fishmen? Does the fishmen still have a future? Even the fishman island under the deep sea of 10,000 meters is no longer a pure land.
With the deliberate indulgence of the Navy and the World Government, various pirate groups completed the coating through the Sabaody Archipelago, dived to Fishman Island and headed for the second half of the Grand Line.Half of the pirate groups can survive.
However, such a screening mechanism has caused the safety factor of Fishman Island to plummet. The reason why the second half of the Grand Line is called the Pirate Paradise is that every pirate who can survive is either a powerful person or an extremely lucky person.
As a result, the navy cannot intervene in the second half of the Grand Line. At most, it can only stay at the door and watch the pirates in the door revel constantly, making it a lawless sea.
"Fisher Tiger is indeed a hero. He is not only a pioneer in liberating slaves, but also a man who can sacrifice his life for his race."
Altolia Pendragon accidentally saw the archives of Fisher Tiger in the historical materials. According to the various information left before and after his death, this fishman is indeed a tragic hero.
Fisher Tiger did not hide the shame of being a slave of the Celestial Dragons. He was full of resentment towards humans. He was betrayed by humans in the cause of liberating slaves. In the end, he was seriously injured and needed blood transfusion in order to break through the encirclement of the navy, but he did not want to use human blood. He would never surrender to humans.
Because he knew in his heart that if he did not die today, Fishman Island and the five million people living there would always live in fear, and the navy and the world government would never forgive them.
He did not let go of his hatred for humans on his deathbed, but Fisher Tiger expressed his hope before his death that the fishmen and humans could cut off their hatred after his death.
Princess Otohime was right. If the two races were full of hatred for each other, they would never coexist on this sea.
But unfortunately, no one of his race could inherit Fisher Tiger's legacy. After his death, the Sun Pirates fell apart directly. The crew members with two different views were led by Jinbei on one side and Arlong on the other.
After Jinbei joined the Shichibukai, he became the representative of the compromise faction. Arlong returned to the big family of pirates and became the representative of the radical faction with a mind full of racial discrimination. Fisher Tiger's ideas were shelved and idolized and sanctified, losing their original appearance.
In order to maintain Fisher Tiger's reputation and cover up the shameful fact that he was a slave, his follower Arlong claimed that the hero died of blood loss because humans refused to give him a blood transfusion.
Therefore, the cause of the fishman hero's death became one of the main reasons why the fishmen were more hostile to the human race.
