Chapter 494 Surfaced, the deadly medicine! (Two in one)

This night on Fishman Island will never be peaceful.

The arrival of the new navy obviously attracted the attention of the surrounding residents. On Fishman Island, Jinbei and his men can almost become synonymous with "sense of security".

Noticing the arrival of the new navy, the people who had been hiding at home and dared not go out also poked their heads out of the house one after another. Soon, the streets were filled with people watching the excitement.

The people of Fishman Island almost have no night activities. Working from sunrise to sunset is the living condition of most people on the island. The sudden appearance of such a "fun" naturally touched the hearts of many people.

While waiting for Zefa, Jinbei was not idle. He did not drive away the people around who were watching the excitement. Instead, he took this opportunity to let his men collect useful information from the crowd, thinking of restoring the whole process of the matter from the side.

He did not doubt the words of Ace and others. He asked so many questions just to investigate more thoroughly.

However, this accident happened suddenly, and Jinbei did not have much expectation to ask any valuable information from these ordinary people.

But a low cry broke Jinbei's fixed idea.

"Isn't that person Shul from Fishman Street?"

"Wasn't he arrested for theft before? How did he appear here? And was he killed?"

Jinbei's subordinates put the bodies of the two fishmen together, and someone in the crowd who were watching the excitement suddenly recognized Shul who was killed by Ace.

And his words also made everyone at the scene look sideways.

Vergo was very fast, and his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot. He found the resident who whispered before Jinbei, and asked hurriedly after a quick look:

"Shul, which one are you talking about?"

The person Vergo asked was a male mermaid in his thirties, with a circle of bubbles around his waist, holding him up.

The man felt a flash in front of his eyes, and saw a serious-looking new navy appear in front of him. After just a moment of hesitation, he immediately pointed to Shul's body on the open space.

Vergo glanced at him, his eyes flashed, and he continued to ask:

"Do you know him? Can you tell me how you know him?"

"You said he was arrested for theft before, who arrested him?"

When Vergo asked, Jinbei, Smoker and others also cast their eyes, and even Ace and Sabo looked at the name.

Especially Ace, at this time, he had quietly walked to Vergo's side, showing unusual seriousness.

Does anyone know the origin of this group of people? This can save them a lot of effort!

"Uh"

Being stared at by a group of people, the man would feel a little nervous, and after a little hesitation, the man's face also showed some memories.

"More than a year ago, Shule was caught by the guards of Ryugu City. I heard that he stole the treasures in Ryugu City."

"Shule is quite 'famous' in Fishman Street. He specializes in this business."

"As for how I know him, I have a friend. Haha, I bought some things from him before."

When the man said this, his face showed a little embarrassment. Although Fishman Island opened a foreign trade port under the leadership of Princess Otohime and King Neptune.

However, the number of ships traveling between the mainland and Fishman Island is not large. On the one hand, this trade route is extremely dangerous, and few merchants dare to take risks. Another reason is that many caravans coming to Fishman Island are actually pirates in disguise.

For a long time, goods on Fishman Island have been scarce. Under such circumstances, some lawless elements on Fishman Island have also seen the business opportunities here.

Some goods on land can be sold at high prices on Fishman Island.

"A man was caught by the guards of Ryugu Castle for stealing a treasure in Fishman Street?"

"Captain Jinbei, can such a person be easily released in Fishman Island?"

Vergo's ability to grasp the key points is quite strong. He glanced at Jinbei and asked.

"Of course it's impossible!"

"Theft itself is a serious crime in Fishman Island."

"The theft happened in Ryugu Castle? I have heard about it."

As the base commander of the Fishman Island branch, Jinbei has a lot of things to deal with every day. He doesn't know much about some things that have nothing to do with their new navy.

The theft in Ryugu Castle also caused a lot of impact at the time. Even Jinbei, who was devoted to his official duties, knew about it.

From the information he knew, an unknown treasure was indeed stolen from Ryugu Castle at that time. And the murderer was also caught, but strangely, the stolen treasure was not recovered.

As for the criminal, there was no news afterwards, and he was obviously imprisoned in Ryugu Castle.

But now it seems that there is something fishy about this.

Jinbei did not hide the information he knew. This scandal that happened in Ryugu City was a hot topic at the time, and many people knew about it.

"Theft case, the guards of Ryugu City, Fishman Street, the disappearance case, and the current kidnapping case."

"That lieutenant named Along, I'm afraid he knows something."

After Vergo learned this information from Jinbei's mouth, he quickly connected the clues in his mind. His eyes glanced at the dagger in Jinbei's hand, and he already knew in his heart how the next work would be carried out. .

"Excuse me, please give way."

While everyone in Vergo was digesting various information, there was a sudden noise outside the group.

Everyone looked sideways, and happened to see Zefa leading a group of marines to squeeze through the crowd and appear in everyone's sight.

"The new navy's actions are really fast!"

Zefa led the team through the crowd. His eyes swept over the faces of everyone present and took in the scene. Then his eyes also fell on Ace and others. He saw that the three little ones were fine. His There was also a slight smile on his face, and then his expression suddenly changed and he said sternly:

"Do you know how much trouble you three caused me by staying up late at night and sneaking off the ship?!"

"After you go back, you are not allowed to leave the room! Please reflect on it!"

While talking, Zefa also came to Jinbei and said with a look of shame:

"I'm really sorry, Base Commander Jinbei. These three boys have caused you trouble."

"I have heard about the matter. When I go back, I will teach them a lesson."

"I will give you an explanation for this matter. From now on, my people will take over the affairs here!"

As Zefa spoke, his eyes glanced at the three fishmen on the ground. He noticed that there were survivors, and waved his hand to his subordinates behind him, indicating that they would take them away.

"Mr. Zefa!"

Seeing the actions of Zefa's subordinates, Jinbei also narrowed his pupils and blocked them repeatedly.

"What's wrong? Base Commander Jinbei?"

Zefa pretended not to know and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Seeing Zefa pretending to be stupid, Jinbe also became wary.

He will wait for Zefa and the others to arrive, but he does not intend to leave this matter to Zefa, a "outsider". He just does not want to cause misunderstandings and unnecessary conflicts with Zefa.

But what Zefa is showing now is that he wants to "declare sovereignty" on Fish-Man Island?

"Mr. Zefa, this is what happened on Fish-Man Island. I should apologize for getting your crew involved."

"It's because we didn't do our job properly. I'm here to apologize to you."

"I will give you an explanation for this matter. Please leave these people to us. Our new navy will be responsible for the investigation."

Jinbei's words suddenly made the atmosphere tense. Zefa's students heard Jinbei's words, but they couldn't help but stop their movements and looked at Zefa.

Zefa has a great reputation, and the students all respect him, and that's right.

However, the New Navy represented by Jinbei has a good reputation. Although the students know that Fish-Man Island is nominally a member of the World Government, they also know that Fish-Man Island is the territory of the New Navy. This is actually people's consensus.

There is no quarrel between you and I. Naturally, you are good to me.

In the hearts of these students, they actually do not want to have a conflict with these people from the New Navy.

However, the navy cadets were a little worried about the name of the new navy, but Zefa himself had no such concerns at all.

"This matter, after all, involves these students of mine."

"Well, if my people are attacked and I still ask Base Commander Jinbei to help me investigate, where will my face go?"

"I will investigate this matter myself."

With that said, Zefa also took a step forward, walked in front of Jinbei, slowly raised his hand and patted Jinbei's shoulder, and whispered in Jinbei's ear:

"These three fishmen are going to kidnap my students, right?"

"Chief Jinbei, if your new navy can solve this case, there won't be so many kidnapping cases on the island in recent years."

"Sometimes, you can't just look for other people's problems, you have to look for your own problems!"

"Do you know which part of the room is darkest when the lights are on at night?"

"It's under the lampshade!"

Zefa's eyes flashed. As he spoke, he gently patted Jinbei's shoulder, and then motioned for his students to move.

After Jinbei heard Zefa's words, he remained silent, but his hand holding the dagger tightly turned a little white.

Even though he was talking about it, Jinbe still didn't know what Zefa meant.

"Fishman Street"

Jinbe himself actually came out of Fishman Street. Not only him, but also his eldest brother Tiger. There are also many new marines from Fishman Street among his subordinates.

Jinbei is not a fool. With various clues connected, he also has a suspect and a direction for investigation.

Without stopping Zefa's students, Jinbei whispered in Zefa's ear as he watched the two corpses and the murderer being taken away:

"The fish-man whose chest was pierced is named Shuer. He was born in Fish-Man Island. He was previously because of"

Before Jinbei could finish speaking, he saw Zefa raising his hand to stop him:

"No need to elaborate, I know everything."

As he said that, Zefa pointed at Ace who had been beside Vergo. Jinbe looked sideways and found that Ace, who was standing next to Vergo, had been holding a phone bug in his hand. The phone bug had eyes. is open.

"."

Ace, who noticed Jinbei's gaze, grinned and silently put away the phone bug. When Jinbei saw this scene, he was speechless for a while.

"As expected of the elite cultivated by Mr. Zefa."

Jinbei sighed softly, watching Zefa's men clean up the battlefield and collect information from the people. After standing for a long time, he left with mixed emotions.

From beginning to end, Vergo, Smoker and others did not interrupt, just like spectators.

It was not until they walked hundreds of meters with Jinbei that Vergo quickly caught up with Jinbei's footsteps and said coldly:

"Captain Jinbei, take Captain Arlong under control!"

"Until the matter is investigated clearly, he will never be allowed to leave our sight!"

The murder in the street on Fishman Island, which has always been relatively peaceful, naturally attracted the attention of many people.

What happened at night also became a topic of conversation and spread widely.

After returning to the base, Vergo, who got Jinbei's approval, commissioned Peacock to secretly monitor Captain Arlong. He believed that Arlong's attack was not a coincidence, and the murderer was not the Red Hair Pirates.

Arlong, who did not know that he had been targeted, had just been threatened with death and decided to take action after a night of thinking.

He had already boarded Vander Decken IX's ship, and he couldn't get off whenever he wanted.

And Aaron had no intention of getting off the ship at all!

The next morning, Aaron opened the closet of his single dormitory, searched through the boxes and cabinets, and found a small box the size of a wallet, which he put in his arms.

After standing in front of the door for a long time, Aaron gently stroked the small iron box in the inner pocket of his chest, and his heart became calm.

Evil medicine ES!

This is what can soothe Aaron's uneasiness.

This is a special medicine hidden in the treasure house of Dragon Palace City. After taking it, you can develop the limit of your body and get a hundred times the usual strength.

Of course, the reason why the evil medicine is called evil medicine is not only because of its terrifying enhancement effect, but also because of its terrifying side effects.

To gain strength, you need to pay the price of your life.

The more you use it, the stronger the side effects of your body will be, and the faster you will age.

It's just that not many people know about this side effect.

Arlong didn't know the side effects of the murderous drug. In his opinion, ES was a magic drug that could help him gain strength. With this thing, he was no longer afraid of anything.

Arlong left the branch base. Because of the potential threat of the Red Hair Pirates, Jinbei gave him a vacation, but Arlong obviously didn't take the so-called potential threat to heart at this moment.

After strolling around the city for a while in his casual clothes, Arlong turned left and right, and after passing through countless dark paths, he went to Fishman Street.

At this time, in a broken house somewhere in Fishman Street, a group of fishmen gathered together and were discussing something.

"Captain, Shul and his friends went out to restock last night and failed."

"I heard that they ran into the navy and were killed. Only Heaton survived and was taken away by Zephyr of the navy!"

"I don't think we can stay here any longer."

"Let's go to the Sea Forest!"

"As long as we go there, the navy won't be able to find us even if Heaton says something."

"We'll come back after they leave."

In the small room, all the cadres under Vander Decken IX gathered. He is the captain of The Flying Dutchman Pirates, a rare fishman pirate group.

In addition to relying on one's own strength, the most important thing to survive on the Fishman Island is to keep a low profile!

The fishmen who attacked Ace and others last night were actually his men.

But early in the morning, when he learned that his subordinates were killed and captured, he hurriedly summoned the cadres of his pirate group to discuss countermeasures.

Former Admiral Zephyr.

Although Vander Decken IX has a powerful hand in the underground world of Fishman Island, he dare not confront Zephyr, who has a great reputation.

Even if their pirate group has a "trump card", they still avoid unnecessary conflicts.

Who would want to fight and kill when they can "do business" peacefully?
