One Piece: Mandala Swordsman

Chapter 163 Fists are still effective!

"Boss Ah Long!" Xiao Ba, who had just recovered from her surprise, immediately went to check on Ah Long's condition, and her shout broke the silence.

"Did you see that? That kid actually hit Ah Long."

"It was so fast, I couldn't see it clearly at all."

Are humans such powerful beings?

"Are you kidding me? They seem really powerful, but isn't it said that we fish-men are dozens of times stronger than humans?"

The onlookers were abuzz with discussion.

Although their expressions differed, they were all taken aback by Roman's strength.

Sly: "It seems the officer is quite angry, not just because of his expression."

Grant: "It's all because he keeps spouting nonsense, it's making my hands itch."

LaVine: "Luckily, it wasn't us who got beaten up."

Patch: "But we won't get a chance to play, will we?"

King Neptune, standing to the side, was also so shocked by the scene that he was speechless.

After a while, he came to his senses: "Otohime, you figured it out a long time ago?"

Princess Otohime nodded: "That child is definitely not an ordinary person, but fortunately she is willing to help. Your Majesty, perhaps this is an opportunity, an opportunity to go to the land. I know the process will be difficult, but once some people go to the land, a new wave of ideas will emerge, and the children will have a wider world to explore. They will definitely be happy."

After saying that, Otohime touched her belly.

Everything she did was for the children.

Jinbe was also quite shocked by the scene, and even dropped his hookah. Although Arlong was weaker than him, he was still a good fighter in Fishman Street, otherwise he wouldn't have so many followers.

Having witnessed Whitebeard's power, he knew that while some humans possessed world-destroying power, they were ultimately a minority.

Moreover, Whitebeard had been famous for many years, and now seeing such power in the hands of an unknown child, Jinbe was still in a daze.

But the most urgent thing is to check on Ah Long's injuries.

Thinking of this, Jinbe hurriedly ran over.

At this moment, Ah Long's left cheek was completely deformed, he was foaming at the mouth, and his eyes were lifeless. The violent punch had sent him through countless buildings, resulting in several broken bones in his back.

Although it looks serious, Ah Long's breathing is still steady, so he can recover with some rest.

"Don't worry, he just fainted and there won't be any serious problems. I went easy on him. Besides, he's very strong. The fist that hit him in the face is now red, swollen, and painful."

Even so, Roman's fist was still pale and uneven, but the somewhat naive Hachi immediately chimed in.

"That's right, Boss Arlong is very tough, even his face can bring..." But before he could finish speaking, he was hit squarely on the head by Jinbe's fist.

"Ouch, that hurts, Brother Jinbe?"

"Stop embarrassing yourself, Xiao Ba. All of you, take Ah Long away to rest. You're no match for that kid." Shen Ping looked at Roman standing on the stage with a serious expression, his breathing becoming heavy.

Don't be fooled by appearances. This child may look like just a little devil, but he might be the strongest among the humans present.

"Lord Jinbe, your skill level is quite good. Do you see any fishmen with even higher skill levels, or would you like to have a match with me?"

This is the fastest solution.

Roman isn't afraid of a war of attrition, but that would be very troublesome. However, if he can defeat the strongest Jinbe, it will be much easier to recruit them later.

Jinbe's prestige is much higher than Arlong's. As long as Tiger doesn't show up, Fishman Town will surely listen to him.

Although he knew that Jinbe was not someone who could not be communicated with properly, Roman still took a more radical approach.

That's because sometimes, force can win people's hearts more than words.

If you beat someone so badly they can't stand up but aren't knocked unconscious, then whatever you want to say, they can only listen.

Moreover, this was the method that Jinbe had agreed to from the beginning.

Then I naturally won't be polite.

Even underwater, Roman is confident he can subdue Jinbe now.

"Sorry, Arlong's temper is indeed a bit rough." Roman showed mercy, which Jinbe could see. This duel was decided from the beginning, so the opponent's actions were reasonable.

He didn't even take out his own weapon; he defeated Ah Long with his bare hands.

She is much stronger than expected.

Although he had expected it, Jinbe still clenched his fist.

He was still wary of humans.

However, the humans with martial prowess didn't seem as domineering as he had imagined; the girl in front of him kept smiling.

Although she seems gentle, but...

He glanced at the king and queen.

Both of them nodded to him.

"Regarding your suggestion to join the Navy, it concerns the very foundation of the Merfolk, so I must treat it with caution. If we do join the Navy, can you provide protection for the Merfolk?"

This is actually a difficult question to answer.

All she could guarantee was that the fish-men who joined the navy wouldn't be kidnapped.

However, there is no guarantee that she will be given more power.

At the very least, it must be Sengoku who discusses this with the Five Elders.

"That depends on how many soldiers the merfolk are willing to provide us," Roman replied indirectly.

Only those with a large number of people have a voice.

The navy is unlikely to back down for just one or two murloc soldiers. At the very least, the navy needs to understand the vital role of the murlocs, so the more the better.

The racists and dissidents among the merfolk are not really a big problem.

They are nothing more than recruited personnel who have committed even more serious offenses.

The World Government actually values ​​Fishman Island, otherwise it wouldn't have granted it a seat.

Even though they don't attend the World Conference, Fishman Island's seat has never been revoked, which shows the World Government's attitude.

Moreover, Fishman Island is one of the few countries that never defaults on its debts to the heavens.

why?

The sea is full of treasures; finding just a little bit is enough to be worth a fortune.

Many things that are useless to merfolk are treasures that humans on land praise.

Fishman Island has enormous potential.

Therefore, even though the World Government knew they were seeking refuge with pirates, it did not take action.

However, perhaps the Five Elders have become too lazy to care about the rampant patronage of pirates in the New World.

As for Aquaman...

The mermaid princess hadn't even been born yet, so they probably couldn't have predicted that the Sea King would be born soon.

Seeing Jinbe remain silent, Roman slowly spoke: "Although this matter should be discussed with the King and Queen, you are, after all, the leader of Fishman City. It would be best to have your support, so your answer is..."

"I……"
