One Piece: Beginning as the Monkey King - Chapter 256
After everything calmed down, Bardock said to Jinbei, “Did you see that, Jinbei? Shirahoshi’s power is beyond imagination.” “What do you mean?” Jinbei was puzzled, but he quickly realized, “You mean, those giant sea kings were summoned by Princess Shirahoshi.” At this moment, Jinbei looked at Bardock with a hint of vigilance, and he was somewhat suspicious of Bardock’s real purpose of arriving at Fishman Island. “Don’t be nervous. In fact, many years ago, when Pirate King Roger arrived at Fishman Island, he said that there would be a mermaid princess who could command all sea kings. Neptune also knew about it. Shirahoshi was not even born at that time.”
Seeing that Jinbei was listening carefully, Bardock continued, “There is a historical text that points out that the ancient weapon, “Sea King” Poseidon, is the mermaid princess who can command all sea kings. Obviously, Shirahoshi is the “Sea King” Poseidon of this generation.”
Jinbei quickly digested the news that Bardock said, and asked, “So, is your goal Princess Shirahoshi?”
“No!” Bardock shook his head very simply, “Compared to powerful external forces, I prefer my own strength. Fishman Karate is my real goal. But…”
“But what?” Jinbei asked.
“But I don’t care, but that doesn’t mean others don’t care. Someone else noticed Shirahoshi just now. Vander Decken IX, his family has passed down some secrets of the mermaid princess from generation to generation. The way he looked at Princess Shirahoshi just now, tsk tsk tsk…”
In fact, Bardock didn’t see Vander Decken IX’s eyes, but that didn’t stop him from making trouble for that guy in front of Jinbei.
Sure enough, Jinbei yelled angrily: “That bastard!”
Bang!
Accidentally, Jinbei stepped on a big hole in the ground. I think once Jinbei sees Vander Decken IX, his bones will be broken.
Bardock finally said, “Jinbei, if you have time, you’d better train Shirahoshi well. She may be the hope for Fishman Island to migrate to land.”
A few days later, the injury of the Celestial Dragon Donquixote Musgard healed.
In fact, Princess Otohime had invited Mansherry to treat Musgard, but Mansherry hated Don Quixote the most, and everyone disliked the Celestial Dragons, so she would not treat them!
After that, Otohime was going to follow Musgard to the ground.
No matter how nicely Princess Otohime spoke before, most of the fishmen and mermaids on Fishman Island were negative about coexisting peacefully with humans and living together under the sun.
This time, they were really willing to believe Princess Otohime. Therefore, they were more worried about the safety of Princess Otohime on this trip.
The expression of this Celestial Dragon was obviously full of resentment.
“…If even I, who is much weaker than ordinary people, can come back safely after going to that world, it can prove that the land is safe…”
Otohime convinced everyone and followed Musgard to the ground.
Watching Otohime and the others leave, Bardock sighed. Otohime was not just an idealist, she was really practicing her ideal: leading Fishman Island to live in the sun.
“Jinbei, Fishman Island is not a monolithic island. There are pirates, human traffickers, and ambitious people. Do you think if Otohime returns safely, can she really take everyone to the land? Do you believe that there are fishmen who will hurt Otohime?”
In response to Bardock’s question, Jinbei wanted to say that no fishmen would hurt Princess Otohime, but in the end he couldn’t answer.
Bardock patted Jinbei on the shoulder, “Be careful of Hody Jones, he is more extreme than Arlong.”
After saying that, Bardock went back. He was almost done with Fishman Karate.
Hody Jones was nothing to Bardock, but Bardock was fine, so he couldn’t take the initiative. What would other fishmen think of him?
The racial issue on Fishman Island was too sensitive. It would be better if the fishmen could solve everything themselves.
