The crossed leg bones, white crescent beard, and the iconic pattern are the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates. As a middle-level cadre of the Beasts Pirates, it is impossible for Mandfesh not to recognize Whitebeard's flag. .
This is the biggest change that has occurred in Fish-Man Island during this time. Edward Newgate, the white-bearded man, announced that Fish-Man Island has been included in his territory.
Compared with the so-called membership status, Whitebeard's flag is more effective. The pirates who caused trouble in Fish-Man Island were liquidated on the day Whitebeard arrived. After that, Fish-Man Island was much calmer than before. But occasionally there are pirates who kidnap mermaids.
The high selling price of a mermaid starting at 100 million makes these people willing to take the risk of offending Whitebeard and give it a try.
"Unexpectedly, that guy with Whitebeard would actually choose to protect Fish-Man Island."
"What? Do you look down on fish-men?"
Listening to the soliloquy of a coating craftsman, Manderfish came behind him. No one in the pirate group, now known as the Emperor of the Sea, looked down upon the fish-men or fish-men.
Jack of all beasts, the captain under Whitebeard and the leader of the affiliated pirate group, Big Mom's husband and daughter all have fish-men or mermaids.
The country that Charlotte Lingling wants to build where all races live together, the family that Whitebeard seeks, and the combat power that Kaido seeks do not discriminate against this race.
Especially the Beasts Pirates. Today, the Beasts can be called the pirate group with the most non-pure-blooded human cadres. However, as Charlotte Lingling's fertility work continues to develop, this position is at risk of being overtaken.
"Ah...No, I'm just...a little curious. After all, protecting Fish-Man Island is a big project, and it will attract criticism from others."
"That is the man who is called the Emperor of the Sea together with Brother Kaitou. If he does not even have this responsibility, he is not worthy of being called the Emperor of the Sea. Stop talking after you go to the island. If there is no order from Brother Kaitou and the others, don't take the initiative to provoke it. Disaster."
With that said, he ordered the sailors to enter Fish-Man Island. If they wanted to return directly to their own territory, they could bypass here. However, in addition to some specialties from Shampoo Land, specialties from Fish-Man Island were also within the scope of his purchase.
Before entering Fishman Island, Manderfish also used his own abilities.
His carp king's human-animal form is no different from that of a fish-man. It can be said that they are exactly the same, so he can completely regard himself as a fish-man on Fish-Man Island.
"Old rules, you go shopping and meet at the boat in the evening."
As he spoke, Manderfish carried his things and walked to the Coral Hill in the southeast of Fish-Man Island. It was the prosperous port town of Dragon Palace Kingdom, and Manderfish came here not to hang out, but to find people. of.
"Russalka, are you there?"
In front of an exquisite building, Manderfish knocked on the shell door in front of him. After a long time, the door was slowly opened, and a slightly petite silver-tailed mermaid floated out from inside.
Rusaka, the guppy mermaid, the woman Pillman mentioned before, is also the target that Manderfish is currently pursuing.
There is no water in the bubbles on Fishman Island, so the mermaids have to blow bubbles from the bubble coral to move freely.
A few years ago, Manderfish fell in love with her at first sight when he was on a mission and passed through the Fish-Man Island. After that, he began to contact her as a Magikarp fish-man. She also had some reputation here, but it was not a good one.
Rumors say that falling in love with her will lead to misfortune. Pillman's statement that she was married is not very accurate, because the male mermaid was attacked by a sea monster and died on the wedding day.
Later, a mermaid who pursued her also died in a battle with human pirates. Since then, some strange words have been spread.
And she herself also asked Charlie when she was a child to divine for her, and the future was not good. Since then, she has been alone. The rumors spread more and more widely, leaving her with no other suitors. Until Manderfish a few years ago Appeared here.
"Why are you here again?"
"Of course I'm here to see you. These are the great senbei and chocolates from Chambordi. There are also some books here. They are made of special moisture-proof and waterproof material. They should be able to be stored for a long time."
Manderfish took out the things he had prepared in his package, which were all carefully prepared gifts.
"It's not a valuable thing, just accept it. Last time I saw that you like reading books, but I don't know what you like to read, so I just got some."
Paper books are a rarity on Fishman Island. Not only are they difficult to transport, they are also difficult to preserve. Ordinary paper will rot in this deep sea soon, so Manderfish found someone to customize them.
Regarding which books to customize, he even used Jack to do some experiments. Although Jack grew up in human society, he felt that Jack's nature should be similar to that of a mermaid.
"Didn't I tell you last time that you would encounter misfortune if you stay in contact with me for a long time? Aren't you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid. I have always been very lucky. I just got a big treasure not long ago. By the way, I may change the color after a while, but don't recognize me."
In order to prevent the other party from recognizing him after he evolved, Manderfish specially said hello.
Although this was a bit strange, Rusaka didn't think there was any problem. Murlocs or mermaids were closely related to their species, and there were also things like seasonal color changes.
Then they entered a stage of forced awkward conversation. Rusalka neither chased him away nor took the initiative to extend the topic. In short, she continued to talk about whatever Manderfish said. Did not say.
This is because of her strange curse, she rarely communicates with others, so she is sometimes relatively passive in communication.
The time came to evening before I knew it, and it was time for Manderfish to leave.
"Well, it's time. See you next time. I'll leave this for you." Manderfish took off a phone bug with his personal number on it.
"This is..."
"Phone bug, remember to call me if you miss me." He said as if he was afraid of being rejected by the other party, so he opened the door and left.
"Goodbye! I'm going sailing!"
"Idiot..." Rusalka did not throw away the phone bug, but she seemed to be complaining about Manderfish's behavior.
...
"Hey, hey, brother Manderfesh!
"
After leaving Fish-Man Island, Pillman saw that Manderfish had been in a daze and shouted directly into his ear.
"What? I can hear you."
Rubbing his ears, Manderfish looked at his little brother and didn't know what he was going to do.
"I'm telling you, brother, if you use this appearance to fall in love with a mermaid, what will happen in the future? You will always be able to release your ability."
