Fish-Man Island relied on Whitebeard's pirate flag to avoid a lot of trouble. The world government also knew about this matter. In the 10,000-meter-deep sea, they were too lazy to care about it, but not on land.
This is the territory assigned to Fish-Man Island by the World Government. If the pirate flag is hoisted on this island, it will be unacceptable to the World Government.
So in the agreement, if they fly a flag other than that of the Sun Pirates, the island will automatically lose its status as a member nation.
The Ryugu Kingdom needs this identity. With this identity, those who have thoughts about fishmen and mermaids are slave hunters and pirates. At least no one will do that kind of thing blatantly.
The World Government is still the strongest force on the sea. Without this protection, they may have to face more troubles. Even if the kings of some countries come to plunder this place, it is legal.
In this case, they had no choice but to agree to those agreements, and they could not hang the flag openly. There were still ways to deal with it privately.
As for the navy's protection, theoretically, this island is also qualified to be protected by the navy, but only in theory. The World Government has no idea of including this place within the scope of naval protection, and Fish-Man Island has not mentioned this matter.
Unless the navy is allowed to directly station troops on the island, there will be no time at all, but even Otohime will not agree to such a thing.
Fish-Man Island has to rely on the World Government, but neither Otohime nor Neptune has much confidence in the navy. This is determined by their living environment. In the past hundreds of years, Fish-Man Island has never been a navy. jurisdiction.
The island is still under construction and has only encountered some scattered minor troubles. With the Sun Pirates, they can still deal with it, but such an environment cannot allow ordinary citizens to settle.
And this is also one of the purposes of the World Government. They hope that Fish-Man Island can share more pressure from pirates, and at the same time, they can take advantage of the chaos to capture some slaves.
Although Musgarud is a Draco, he cannot represent the entire Draco group, and he is not the only one who is interested in fish-man slaves.
If you want to change the situation here, looking at the forces that Otohime and Neptune can trust, Beast Fruit has become the only choice.
Legal, powerful, accepting of the fishmen, and at the same time satisfying Otohime's wish for the two races to live in peace.
Speeches cannot buy peace. Only by defeating those who are afraid can we buy stability.
Naturally, the beasts also have their own goals, which are the murlocs themselves. This race is more suitable for underwater combat than humans. In order to prepare for future wars, the expansion and recruitment of the beasts has never stopped, and the same has been done to absorb more murlocs. Things they planned. Otohime originally communicated this matter with Tezolo, but Tezolo reported it, so Manderfish led the team here. They will not show up, but they will deal with some things. time is more convenient. During this period, a group of fishmen also quietly came to the island. "Brother Tai? Long time no see. How are you lately?" Jinbei, who was in charge of guarding the island, had a happy face. He hadn't seen his boss for a long time.
"Not bad, you seem to have grown a lot."
Patting Jinbei's shoulder, Tiger looked at this island that was still under development.
This island is a big event for the fishmen. After receiving the news, Tiger naturally rushed over, and he also brought a special person - Tom.
As the top shipwright of the fishmen, he can build more than just boats. In this era of great pirates, any ship that can sail on the sea has certain counterattack capabilities.
When building the sea train, Tom made some large weapons to drive away sea beasts. Without the deep sea as a barrier, they had to consider more things when building the city, so Tiger came here with Tom and wanted to Give me some help.
"This is a big project. This is my first time building an island from scratch."
Tom verbally complained about the huge amount of work, but he had already begun to draw the manuscript. This was a big event for the fish people, and as a member of the fish people, he also wanted to contribute.
"Uncle Tom, I'll leave this to you. I'll go over there and have a look first."
"Don't worry, I will design this place well.
. "
"Wait a minute, Senior Tom, if you want to design it, please improve it according to this plan. This is what Her Royal Highness the Princess has discussed with them."
Tom, who had just arrived here, did not understand the situation here. The fishman who was originally under construction gave Tom a rough plan. "Is this...an underground maze? Do you want to use the maze to defend against enemies?" That is a general design plan. This island looks like a deserted stone island, but it has a large number of underground rivers. The current plan It is to penetrate the ground, expose the original underground space, and then transform the central area. The peripheral underground river can become a natural defensive barrier, and at the same time, the complex maze of roads can be used to push the intruder into a desperate situation. The overall structure is similar to Wano Country. It is a terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, Wano Country is higher than the sea level, and the plan here is to be below sea level.
At this stage, the main people living here are fishmen and mermaids. The water does not pose any threat to them, and they also have bubble wrap technology that they can use. This is also one of the reasons that restricts their location selection. Mermaids need to rely on bubbles to live, and bubbles can only be produced in large quantities and maintained for a long time near the Shampoo Islands. This is still within the scope of influence of the Chambord Islands, and you can rely heavily on bubbles to complete some ideas. The bubble film will prevent seawater from pouring back, and at the same time seal the entrance above. Entering from above will trigger an early warning, which is an illegal intrusion. If you want to come in, you still have to take the regular underwater passage, which is very similar to Fishman Island, except that the water here is only a few dozen meters deep and there are no original fishmen.
The island is so deep. Then there is this maze. After passing through the maze, you can successfully reach the residential area. The residential area even has an escape passage to the deep sea. "Although it's a bit weird, the idea is okay, but...how to build this maze? This structure cannot use a large amount of gunpowder, and it will take many years for manpower, and what should we do if the trap accidentally injures ordinary people?" This idea came to Tom's mind. It seems that there is no problem, but it is very difficult to put it into practice, especially how to transform the underground cave. "We don't know, but those people said that we can rest assured that they will take care of it." "Those people?"
At this time, in addition to pirates, there were a large group of brown creatures on Mandfish's ship. Their huge heads were disproportionate to their bodies, and they looked more like turtles, but they were actually ant-antlion Pokémon. Jaw ants.
