Chapter 234 Brother, you won’t be betrayed, right? ! (2-in-1)

At the same time that the news of the navy's arrival at Fish-Man Island reached Ryugu City, the Dawn warship also officially landed at the dock of Fish-Man Island under the leadership of the Fish-Man Island portal guards.

There are many ways to enter Fishman Island, and entering through the portal is the most formal way. Most of the pirates who come to Fish-Man Island privately enter Fish-Man Island directly from the sky above Fish-Man Island. The giant bubble that protects the Fishman Island is actually the same thing as the coating on the ship before it enters the deep sea.

When the ship's membrane comes into contact with the fish-man island's membrane, the boat's membrane and the things inside the membrane will be automatically sucked into the fish-man island. However, there is a big risk in this method of entry, because there is a distance of several hundred meters between the topmost membrane on Fish-Man Island and the ground, and ships sucked into the membrane will directly fall to the ground.

Therefore, pirates who enter the country illegally often choose their landing place carefully when entering Fish-Man Island, in order to reduce the damage to their ships.

There are really very few people like Enichi Tsukuni and others who have entered Fish-Man Island through the portal in such a grand manner over the years. There are only the former Pirate King Roger and those who came to Fish-Man Island a few years ago. The Whitebeard Pirates had such treatment.

These two pirate groups are both world-famous pirates. Even though Neptune didn't know the other's intention at first, he would never dare to conflict with these pirates easily.

Fortunately, both the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates are very sensible teams. After taking care of their own affairs, they left without any negative impact on the local people of Fish-Man Island. .

But there are only a few pirates like this after all. The vast majority of pirates who come to Fish-Man Island do not come purely for "tourism". The mermaids and fish-men on the island are all high-quality goods. Pirates are very interested in them. The invasion of Fishman Island has never stopped.

The reason why Neptune, the most king, is called the Great Knight is partly because he often leads the escort to clear out pirates who enter the country illegally.

When the navy's Jiguoyuan entered the island, Neptune, as the king, had just received the news and had not yet agreed. But the guards of the portal did not fortify the navy at all out of trust in Tiger.

"The navy has come to Fishman Island? Who is here?"

"Is it clear what their purpose is?"

"Since they are here, let them come in first. Although I don't know what their purpose is, as a member of the World Government, our Fish-Man Island has not participated in the World Conference for many years, but I believe that the Navy will not There’s a lot of chaos going on on the island.”

On the throne, Neptune, who had just received the news, thought about it for a moment and said to the seahorse fishman in front of him. The seahorse fishman who reported to him was the left minister of the kingdom. He usually assisted King Neptune in governing the country. He also played a role as a think tank and military officer.

After hearing Neptune's arrangement, Minister Zuo bowed slightly, calmed down, and added:

"The purpose of the navy coming to Fish-Man Island is not yet known."

"However, the guards who witnessed it reported that the fishman Tiger is also among the navy's team."

"Probably...not looking for trouble."

Hearing the name Tiger, a goldfish man standing in front of Neptune's throne immediately lit up his eyes and asked, "Tiger? Is that Tiger from the backstreet?"

"Didn't he leave Fish-Man Island more than a year ago to travel to the outside world?"

"He's back? And he's become a navy?"

The goldfish man who suddenly interrupted in front of Neptune's throne was Neptune's wife, Princess Otohime. Unlike those kingdoms on land where "the harem does not participate in politics", on Fishman Island, Princess Otohime is the kind of harem royal family who has a strong voice. Neptune often values ​​Princess Otohime's opinions when making decisions. .

This is not just because Neptune loves Princess Otohime deeply, but more importantly, Princess Otohime herself is an extremely wise person. In fact, the forces inside Fish-Man Island are also complicated. Although mermaids and fish-men coexist harmoniously on the surface, the most acute contradiction has never disappeared.

Tiger, the blue fat man Jinbei, and Aaron's group who would bring disaster to Orange Town in the future were all born in the backstreets.

The so-called backstreets are actually where the poorest fishmen on the island gather. Most of them have been harmed by pirates. What those fishmen hate most is the pain and disaster they have brought to them. of human beings.

Princess Otohime has always advocated "harmonious coexistence". She firmly believes that one day, a harmonious picture of humans, fishmen, and mermaids coexisting peacefully will truly appear in this world, and she has been working hard for this. , I hope more people will recognize my ideas.

Tiger, who was born in the backstreets, can be said to be the boss of the backstreets. He was also influenced by Princess Otohime's thoughts to a certain extent, so he decided to leave Fishman Island and see with his own eyes what the outside world is like. How.

It's just that Tiger's life was not very smooth until he met the navy of Sword of Dawn.

As for Neptune, as the king, he has been fighting on the front line against foreign invaders. He really doesn't have a good impression of humans and pirates. But because I have met people with strong personalities like Roger and Whitebeard, and my beloved has always been keen on easing the relationship between humans, fishmen and mermaids.

Therefore, Neptune has no prejudice against human beings. In many cases, he is even more biased towards the opinions of his own princess.

It is precisely because of the tendency of the royal family that Fishman Island is divided into two factions, and because Princess Otohime is usually kind and has a very high reputation among the people, Fishman Island can maintain the peace it has now. .

It can be said that this peaceful situation is maintained by Princess Otohime. If Princess Otohime dies one day, Fishman Island will eventually stand on the opposite side of mankind.

By then, no matter how things develop, Fish-Man Island will never be able to appear openly on the sea.

Under the leadership of the fish-man guards, Ji Guoyuan and other marines walked through the bustling streets of Yu-man Island and slowly walked towards Ryugu City. On the way, Tiger, beside Yuan-yi, visited the fish-man island. The so-called "power" told Enichi, King Neptune, and Princess Otohime, these important figures on the Fish-Man Island in advance, and their positions.

There were also thoughts that he had buried deep in his heart. On the way, Tiger told Enichi Tsukuni.

When Ji Guoyuan came to Fishman Island, he wanted to recruit fishmen and mermaid warriors who were willing to join the navy. To do this, it was very important to get the support of the royal family.

Tiger hopes that Yuanyi's recruitment plan will go smoothly. In this way, a bridge will be established between human society and Fish-Man Island.

All beginnings are hard.

This bridge is very important to Fishman Island.

"Lieutenant General, I think Princess Otohime would strongly support your plan if she knew about it."

"It's just that many fishmen in the back streets don't have good senses for humans. It's not easy to get people like them to join the navy."

"Although I think I have some prestige and can force some people into the navy, but this kind of forcing others..."

On the streets, the residents living on Fish-Man Island also heard the news that the navy had arrived on the island. They all walked out of their homes and stopped to watch. This was the territory of Fish-Man Island. These fish-men could not be said to have any fear. As if looking at something new, he paid close attention to the navy team of Enichi and others.

Tiger walked beside Yuanyi step by step, talking about his concerns.

"Tiger, don't worry about this. I will never force anyone to join our navy."

"People who want to join our navy must be able to agree with us on certain things."

“It will be very hard if the people you work with don’t share the same ideals and goals.”

"If possible, I hope my troops can be united and pure."

Ji Guoyuan looked at the surrounding environment curiously while giving Tiger reassurance.

The architectural style of Fishman Island is quite peculiar, and the people here also adapt to local conditions. They basically use "seafood" such as reefs, shells, and corals to build houses.

The houses at both ends of the road are brightly colored, and the pedestrians on the roadside also have different shapes. There are also quite a few differences between fish people and fish people. Their native "breeds" are different, resulting in their appearance being different from each other. It's hard to say what they have in common.

Coming to Fish-Man Island, Yuanyi felt as if he had come to the Fairy Kingdom, and everything he saw felt strange.

When Yuan Yi was observing the people around him, those fishmen were also observing Yuan Yi and his group. In the past, when pirates arrived, the people would disperse in a rush. This was the first time that they could observe human beings in detail like this.

The aesthetics of fish people is different from that of humans. A tall, thin and well-proportioned human like Jiguo Yuanyi does not look good to fish people.

On the contrary, tall, muscular guys like Tiger and Cyrus are more favored by fishmen. Cyrus and Tiger, who were walking beside Yuan Yi, frequently attracted beautiful eyes.

"Brother Tiger! You are back!"

Not long after, a group of fishmen blocked the path forward for Yuan Yi and others.

There are about forty fishmen, the leader of whom looks very young, with gray-white skin, a long nose, and inverted saws on both sides, like double-sided saws that are turned over.

Wearing a plaid shirt on the upper body, a pair of brown shorts on the lower body, and a pair of slippers on the feet, he looked like a "slut". After leading people to block the way of the navy, he shouted at Tiger, full of Face of surprise.

Aaron.

The fish-man leader who stopped Yuanyi and the others was Aaron, a saw-tooth shark man. After Tiger left Fish-Man Island and Jinbe was recruited by Neptune and Princess Otohime to join the kingdom's guard and left the backstreets, young Aaron became the boss of the backstreets.

The power of poor local communities will expand infinitely, and the backstreets of Fishman Island are just that kind of place. Neptune thought about rectification, but the fish people in the backstreets had different ideas from them. The benevolent Neptune did not want internal strife in his country, so he adopted a laissez-faire attitude toward the backstreets.

There are only a few thousand murlocs around, so let them live according to their own ideas.

Previously, under Tiger's control, Backstreet was only brutal against foreign pirates and had no impact on other people on the island, so Neptune didn't care about them. After Tiger left, Aaron, who became the boss, continued Tiger's approach, only targeting hateful outsiders and not committing any crimes against other people on the island.

After a period of operation, the backstreet was completely controlled by Aaron.

As for Tiger, as the original backstreet "leader", Aaron has always regarded him as his idol. Seeing Tiger back, Aaron's first reaction was of course happy.

"Oh! Aaron!"

"I haven't seen you for more than a year, and you're still the same!"

"Hehehe, that's not right either, it's stronger!"

The appearance of Aaron and others made the navy behind Yuanyi a little nervous. Unlike other ordinary people on Fish-Man Island, the navy felt a strong evil aura from Aaron and his group.

The navy who have been fighting pirates all year round are no strangers to this kind of aura. Seeing this group of fishmen, the navy are also secretly wary, and their eyes are looking at Jiguo Enichi. Once Jikuni Enichi gives the order, they will They will rush out directly and destroy the fish-men gang in front of them.

The evil aura emanating from the opponent's body could be felt by ordinary marines, and of course Enichi Jikuni could also feel it. The environment shapes people, and people who grow up in different environments have different auras.

Jiguo Yuanyi also turned his attention to Aaron and the fish people behind him at this time, and the memory of Aaron emerged in his mind. Although the memory was long ago, looking at Aaron's face, the other party's information still clearly appeared in Yuanyi's mind.

"Hahaha, Brother Tiger, please stop making fun of me."

"How come you got mixed up with humans?"

When Ji Guoyuan was looking at Aaron, Aaron was also looking at the "ordinary human" standing next to Tiger. Seeing Tiger's attire, he connected it to the news he heard.

Aaron was convinced that his beloved elder brother had really become a navy and a lackey of mankind!

When he said those words to Tiger, although Aaron's face still looked happy, his eyes were full of disappointment.

Tiger didn't seem to notice Aaron's emotions. Instead, he turned sideways and said happily to Aaron: "I am now a member of the navy."

"He's the captain of the Sword of Dawn naval branch."

"Now, this is my direct superior, Lieutenant General Ji Guoyuan."

"This time I came to Fishman Island to accompany the Vice Admiral to recruit the navy!"

"Lieutenant General, he hopes to become a special operations team. Aaron, do you have any ideas?"

"Would you like to join our navy?"

Listening to the words "We are the navy" from Tiger's mouth, Aaron's eyes couldn't help but twitch, and then he shook his head in embarrassment and refused: "I'm sorry, brother Tiger, I don't care about being a navy. not interested."

"And I don't think humans will accept us fish-men so easily."

"Brother Tiger, you should know what humans are like, right?"

"How can we, who smell like the sea, be regarded as companions by them? Have you been deceived by people's sweet words?"

"After our people get ashore, will they be used as slaves and sacrificed to the nobles?"

"Brother, you won't be sold by these humans and still count their money, right?"

Although Aaron grew up on Fish-Man Island since he was a child, he has never been exposed to the sea world.

But from the mouths of the pirates he killed, Aaron could still roughly describe the scene of the outside world in his mind.

Regarding humans, Aaron is completely different from Tiger. He will never trust humans easily.

In other words, Aaron will never trust any human being!

Looking at Tiger's current appearance, Aaron's longing for Tiger was quickly dissipating in his heart. I'm afraid Aaron himself didn't notice this.

When Aaron said those words, he did not shy away from the navy of Jiguoyuanyi, and his words also made all the navy furious. Cyrus also glared at Aaron with an angry look on his face.

The other party actually classified them as the same kind of people as those pirates and slave traders.

This is an absolute insult to a man with a strong sense of honor like Cyrus!

Realizing that Aaron's words were inappropriate, Tiger also raised his eyebrows, and then quickly turned back to look at his fellow marines. Sure enough, he saw strong anger on the faces of Cyrus and the others.

It looked like he was about to eat Aaron.

Then Tiger's eyes hurriedly looked at Jiguo Yuanyi. Tiger was deeply afraid that Aaron's words would anger Jiguo Yuanyi. If there was a conflict between the navy and the murlocs in the back streets, no matter who was right or wrong, the navy would be in the fish. The plan to recruit soldiers on Human Island is definitely going to fail.

When looking at Enichi Jiguo, Tiger couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Guoyuan's dark color was dull and showed no sign of anger at all, which also made Tiger feel relieved.

"you"

"It's called Aaron, right?"

"I think your worries are unnecessary. Humans are different from humans, just like the difference between you fishmen and fishmen."

"You think so? Aaron"
