Chapter 381 A Madman Driven to the Extreme!
"Merry".
west Yan glanced at Mei Li, who was maintaining her abilities, and said, "Is everything alright?"
Although Merry now has the strength to lift a pirate ship, the other party is still too small, so west Yan is a little worried about her physical condition.
"no problem."
Hearing this, Meili, who was sitting at the bow of the boat swinging her little feet, smiled sweetly and said, "With my current strength..."
"The Thousand Sunny can stay airborne for extended periods without any problems."
Having trained for two years, she is quite strong!
"That's good"
west Yan nodded, "It's good that there are no problems."
In this way... even if he's not around, Mary can still help everyone solve some unnecessary troubles.
"That's the so-called Ryugu Castle, right?" Franky pushed his sunglasses up and said, "It looks a bit big."
Isn't the size of these bubbles a bit too exaggerated?
"It's not as big as you imagined," west Yan said. "A real building would be about a third the size of this bubble."
Franky: —
Even if it's only one-third, it's still quite exaggerated, okay?
After shaking his head, Franky said, "Xiyan, you go."
"We'll wait for you outside."
With Xi Yan's strength, getting through those strange bubbles shouldn't be a problem, so we can leave it to him.
"Um?"
west Yan looked surprised upon hearing this and said, "Aren't you going in to see what the Dragon Palace looks like?"
Frankie had never been here before.
"There's no rush," Franky said. "We can go visit after the battle is over."
They have plenty of time, don't they?
"I see..."
west Yan thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That makes sense. Maybe we can even hold a banquet or something."
As a heroic team that saved Fishman Island, it's not unreasonable to ask Uncle Neptune to throw a banquet, is it? Thinking of this, west Yan laughed.
Then, west Yan looked up at the giant bubble in the air and said, "Then I'll go in and check it out."
After he finished speaking, west Yan was stunned, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Noticing the change in west Yan's expression, Franky asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Strange...why is this corridor in a connected state?" west Yan asked in surprise.
Could it be that Hody and his gang forgot to turn this off when they left?
It's not impossible.
"Is there anything special about this corridor?" Franky asked, puzzled.
"Without this corridor, no one but me could go in," west Yan said, pointing to the bubble above. "Because those bubbles would absorb the coating."
This is why you need a corridor to get to the Dragon Palace.
"That's true," Melly nodded and said, "When we came down, the bubbles on our bodies were swallowed up by this strange coating."
If it weren't for her ability to fly, everyone would probably have fallen straight down from the sky.
"So that's how it is."
Franky frowned and said, "Is that why Dan said those things?"
It would be best to let Xiyan go alone.
"Yes."
west Yan nodded, then looked up at the sky and said, "Alright, I'm going now."
"it is good."
"Take me with you." Perona walked over with a coral bubble in her hand and said, "I'm going to see how that idiot Zoro got caught."
Seeing Perona's unfriendly expression, west Yan was immediately silenced.
Then, west Yan said with a hint of schadenfreude, "Alright, let's go together then."
Zoro, you'd better pray for yourself.
Perona nodded, and then used the coral bubbles to create a bubble that would allow her to breathe.
At this moment, Xi Yan unleashed Water Release: Dance of Swimming Fish, granting him the ability to breathe underwater for an extended period of time.
After doing this, west Yan unleashed the Water Dragon Bullet technique, swallowing the two of them whole!
Then, this enormous water dragon shot into the sky and rushed upwards along the so-called corridor!
"boom!!"
Soon, under west Yan's control, the water dragon returned to the giant bubble where the Dragon Palace City was located.
"Alright, now we need to find out where Zoro and the others are," west Yan said.
"Leave it to me!"
Perona released a ghost and said, "I'll use the ghost to find them."
Upon hearing this, west Yan looked puzzled and said, "Your ghost isn't unable to stay in the water for long periods of time."
How can he find it under these circumstances?
"That's true, but I've already found a solution!"
"What method?"
"This is it."
Perona took out the Coral Bubble, waved it at Xiyan, and said, "My Explosive Ghost has a physical form, so I can wear this bubble."
"That way, we can..."
"Clang!"
"boom!"
Before Perona could finish speaking, a tremendous roar came from afar, as if something had been cleaved in two by a sword!
Perona: ? ? ?
west Yan:
After glancing at the situation in the distance, west Yan paused for a moment, then said to Perona, who looked puzzled, "It seems we don't need to look for those guys' location anymore."
Splitting a building in half with a single sword strike... I doubt anyone else here would do that except Zoro.
"That idiot," Perona said, exasperated. "Isn't he afraid of drowning everyone?"
Usopp and Brook are both Devil Fruit users!
Thinking of this, Perona said, "Quick, let's go check the situation quickly, lest the other two drown."
"Don't worry, they're still alive."
With his Sharingan activated, west Yan noticed the few idiots rushing out of the building and said, "They're all wearing bubble wrap."
It seems Zoro and his buddies aren't stupid; they know to put on a bubble cover before cutting down buildings.
"That's fine then."
west Yan nodded, then said, "Let's go find those four idiots."
After saying that, west Yan manipulated the water dragon to rush towards the four idiots in the distance.
"Whoosh"
"Zoro, I'm truly impressed by you!" Usopp, who was flying around wildly in the sea, roared with his shark mouth wide open, "I told you to just make one opening, why did you just chop the whole building down?"
Now, they can't even control the direction.
"That's faster," Zoro said casually.
If we only make one opening, the seawater will flow in too slowly, so... it's more convenient to just cut it open!
Usopp:
This bastard shows absolutely no remorse.
Just then, Usopp felt a sudden jolt in his body, which then gradually stabilized.
Usopp: ? ? ?
What happened?
But before he could turn around to check, he heard west Yan's familiar voice from behind.
"You guys look like you're having a lot of fun," west Yan said.
Usopp: !!
"Xiyan!" Usopp exclaimed in surprise, "You've come to pick us up?"
Seeing Usopp's delighted expression, west Yan smirked and said, "If I hadn't come looking for you, you four idiots would have been swept away by the ocean currents."
"It's all Zoro's fault, that idiot!"
Usopp glanced at Zoro, who had been swallowed by the water dragon, and said unhappily, "If it weren't for him, how could we have been swept up and flown by this strange current?"
"ha?"
Having just regained his balance, Zoro was immediately displeased upon hearing this. He then stood up and said, "Didn't you tell me to split the building in two?"
"But I meant to make a smaller incision!"
"But not now..."
Before Zoro could finish speaking, Perona, standing behind him, said, "Zoro, can you tell me why the three of you were captured even when you were there?"
Zoro:
Zoro glanced at Perona, who was staring at him, and was immediately silenced.
Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?
Meanwhile, on the other side...
In the sky outside the square, Mecaro was speeding through the air with Jinbe and Shirahoshi.
"Quick, Mecaro!" Jinbe exclaimed, "We're almost at the plaza!"
Hopefully, Hody will keep to the time, otherwise... King Neptune will be in danger.
Hearing Jinbe's words, Meccaro nodded and then increased his speed.
Meanwhile, Shirahoshi looked into the distance with a worried expression and silently prayed.
Just then, a familiar dark figure appeared in the thin clouds in the distance, and Neptune's voice came from that figure.
"It's me~"
"It's Father!" Upon hearing this, Shirahoshi's face lit up with excitement. "Quick, Mecaro!"
"shark!"
Having gained experience, Mecaro also showed an excited expression, then wagged its tail and charged towards the dark figure in the distance.
"Something's not right!" Jinbe exclaimed. "How could King Neptune be in the air?"
He's tied up by Hody and his gang of bastards right now, how could he possibly be in the air!
Unfortunately, Shirahoshi, desperate to save her father, couldn't listen to Jinbe's words at all.
At that moment, all she could think about was rescuing her father as quickly as possible.
"Hey, listen to me!"
"Mecaro, stop!"
"shark?"
Upon hearing Jinbe's words, Mekaro paused for a moment, and his speed subconsciously slowed down.
Unfortunately... the reaction time was still too slow!
"bump!"
Just then, the dark figure in front of them suddenly exploded, transforming into a gigantic net that flew over and trapped the three of them inside.
Subsequently, the three people, who had lost the ability to fly, immediately fell to the ground.
"bump!"
"Mecaro, who was at the very bottom of the shark, was hit so hard that he screamed and tears streamed down his face from the pain."
"Hahaha, I didn't expect such a trap could catch Princess Shirahoshi." Several fish-men who came before Jinhei...
He laughed and said, "It's actually simpler than I imagined!"
"Hahahaha"
"Damn you guys!"
Jinbe, bound by chains, glared angrily at the fish-men, his body instinctively struggling as if he wanted to suddenly attack them.
Seeing this, the fishmen immediately pointed their weapons at Shirahoshi and said, "Jinbe, you are indeed very strong, but I advise you not to act rashly."
"Otherwise... we won't be able to guarantee Princess Shirahoshi's safety~"
Jinbe paused for a moment upon hearing this, then stopped struggling with a grim expression, looking as if he was genuinely afraid that the other party would harm Princess Shirahoshi.
"That's more like it."
The merman nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the others and said, "Quick, tie these three up and take them to Boss Hody!"
"profound!!"
The merfolk roared, their expressions filled with immense excitement.
They then used the hooks attached to the shark to grab the net, using the shark's strength to lift the three of them into the air and fly towards the distant square, quickly entering their target area.
"Captain Hody!" the fishman standing atop the shark's head shouted excitedly, "We've captured Princess Shirahoshi and Jinbe!"
"boom!!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the fishmen threw the person down into the water.
"Shirahoshi!"
When they saw that it was Shirahoshi who had fallen to the ground, the three members of Shark Star were all dumbfounded.
Why was Shirahoshi captured along with Jinbe?
The other merfolk watching from both sides of the square also showed expressions of shock at this moment.
Why was Jinbe captured along with Princess Shirahoshi?
"I'm so lucky!"
Seeing the three figures lying on the ground, Hody excitedly stood up and said, "I never expected that two people who posed a threat to me would be captured at the same time..."
"Hahaha!"
"That's wonderful!"
In this way, no one on the island can threaten him.
Shrimp Hahaha "Sorry..."
Shirahoshi, head bowed, looked at Jinbe with a sad expression and said, "If I hadn't been tricked, Jinbe-sama, you wouldn't have..." Jinbe shook his head and said, "It's alright, it's already like this..."
Although Princess Shirahoshi's capture was indeed unexpected, now that she's been captured, there's no point in dwelling on it; let's just continue with the plan!
Then, a sense of emotion welled up in Jinbe's heart.
"As expected of Princess Shirahoshi, she knows how to say things like that at a time like this to put Hody at a low level."
Well done!
Just as Jinbe had thought, Hody was now completely convinced that the two men had been captured by his men.
"Jinbe, I really admired you when you were still a pirate," Hody said, tilting his head as he looked at Jinbe. "But unfortunately... you chose to be human!"
"So I have no choice but to kill you too."
Jinbe didn't show any surprise at Hody's words.
After all, the other party had clearly stated before that they wanted to kill the fish-men who were on good terms with humans, so it was normal for them to kill him.
but.-
"Why does Hody look different than before?" Jinbe wondered to himself.
Having thought of this, Jinbe then shared his thoughts.
"It's nothing, just a manifestation of increased power," Hody said calmly.
Clearly, he had no intention of explaining his true situation to Jinbe.
Jinbe frowned upon hearing this. Under what circumstances would becoming stronger cause one's hair to turn white?
"Things are going even more smoothly than I imagined." Hody, having returned to his seat, thought to himself.
He said, "Now all that's left is the Straw Hat crew, who knows what they'll do next."
"However, I reckon... right now they're searching for the entrance to the Dragon Palace like headless flies."
Unfortunately... Ryugu Castle is now under the control of his subordinates, so the Straw Hat crew has absolutely no chance of getting in!
"Aren't you afraid the Straw Hat crew will come after you?" Jinbe said, staring at Hody.
"Why should I be afraid?" Hody chuckled. "I've made ample preparations to deal with the Straw Hat crew."
After saying that, Hody clapped his hands, signaling that the others could come up.
A moment later, "tap tap tap..."
A cacophony of footsteps reached everyone's ears, and then one figure after another emerged from the cave!
In the end... nearly 100,000 people emerged from the cave!
"What... what is this?!"
Seeing the incredibly astonishing number, Shark Star was completely stunned.
When did Hody get so many subordinates?
"See that!" Hody said, spreading his arms wide. "This is my trump card against the Straw Hat crew!"
"Thirty thousand human slaves and seventy thousand fish-men capable of using weapons!"
"A total of 100,000 effective combat troops!"
"Shrimp hahahaha"
"With them here, my dream will definitely come true!"
"Hahaha!"
"profound!!"
The merfolk below began to roar, their expressions growing increasingly excited!
Jinbe, who had taken in everything, frowned and said, "That's quite an outrageous number."
I wonder how many people will be left in the end.
Thinking of this, Jinbe sighed silently.
Bai Xing looked horrified and said, "One hundred thousand..."
Such a terrifying number of people......can Lord Xiyan and his men defeat them?
If anyone in the Straw Hat Pirates gets injured because of this, then she...
Thinking of this, tears welled up in Bai Xing's eyes.
"So you're scared now, huh?" Doss, a member of the New Fishman Pirates, sneered. "Too bad, it's too late."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
No matter what this person cries or does, it can't change the fact that she's about to die!
Upon hearing Doss's words, Hody immediately laughed even harder.
Then, he looked down at Shirahoshi and said, "Don't worry, under my leadership, Fishman Island will become even more prosperous!"
"Hahaha!"
After laughing, Hody turned his gaze to the fish-men around him and said, "Alright, now you traitors who are on good terms with humans, hand over your residences."
"This way, the warriors from Fishman Street will have a place to live."
After speaking, Hody paused for a moment, then his expression turned cold as he said, "Of course, you can choose to stay, but then you'll have to face our pursuit!"
"Escape or wait to die, make your decision now!"
"How could this be..."
Those merfolk who had previously submitted their signatures immediately showed expressions of terror.
If they don't leave, they'll be killed by Hody and his gang, but if they leave Fishman Island... where can they go?
This is the only place in the entire ocean where the Sun Tree Eve grows!
"Shouting like that in public, what a bunch of rude kids," Shirley said, riding on her toy near Hody. "Aren't you getting a little too cocky?"
"Hody Jones!"
"Who are you.."
"oh!"
Upon recognizing who it was, Hody immediately had a look of sudden realization, then grinned and said, "What a nostalgic face."
"What are you trying to say?"
"Ah Long's sister... Shirley!"
"I'm just passing on a message to someone as arrogant and domineering as you," Shirley said calmly, pipe in hand. "My divination indicates that a man will destroy Fishman Island."
"Hahaha~"
Upon hearing Shirley's words, Hody immediately burst into arrogant laughter.
Then, he grinned and said, "The person who appeared in your divination should be me, right?"
After all... he's going to destroy Fishman Island!
"No, the person who appeared in my divination is not you," Shirley said calmly.
"What?"
Hody's expression froze upon hearing this, then his face darkened as he asked, "Who is that?"
Why not him?
He's gone to such lengths...
"It's Straw Hat Luffy," Shirley said calmly. "The divination shows that the one who will destroy Fishman Island is this Straw Hat crew captain!"
"What did you say?"
Hody exclaimed in disbelief, "How is this possible?"
How could weak humans possibly destroy Fishman Island?
He should be the one who needs to be destroyed!
"Even if you don't want to believe it, it's the truth," Shirley said calmly. "So... I don't know what that straw hat kid will do next."
"What exactly are you trying to say?" Hody asked, his face grim.
"I'm just telling you that you weren't the ones who destroyed Fishman Island," Shirley said. "At least... you're not the one who holds the fate of Fishman Island in your hands, Hody!"
Upon hearing this, Hody's face immediately darkened.
"yes!"
The surrounding merfolk exclaimed excitedly, "Lady Shirley's divinations are never wrong!"
"So... Hody wasn't the one who ultimately conquered the island?"
"Very good!"
That way, they won't have to die!
"Kah, upon hearing these people's words, Hody's face immediately turned bulging with veins, and his eyes became extremely angry.
Then, without hesitation, he launched an attack on Shirley!
"Splash!"
"Whoosh"
"puff!"
A drop of water flew from Hody's hand, mercilessly piercing Shirley's fishtail and knocking her down from mid-air!
"Mrs. Shirley!"
Bai Xing watched this scene in shock, never expecting that Hody would attack Mrs. Shirley.
Jinbe, on the other hand, looked at Hody with a grim expression, equally surprised that the other would attack Arlong's sister.
"Hody, that bastard..."
"Aren't you getting a little too cocky, Shirley!" Hody stared coldly at Shirley, who was trembling on the ground.
He said, "Why are you saying these things?"
"To vent your anger?"
"I'm telling you, there's no point in doing this!" Hody said. "Because I now possess the power to destroy this country!"
"And the only one capable of destroying and rebuilding this nation... is me!"
"Straw Hat Boy and all that, in the end, are just lowly humans, completely incomparable to me, N1-class 'Hahahaha~'"
"profound!!!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding merfolk roared again, as if responding to Hody's will.
"See that!" Hody pointed to the crowd around him and said, "That's my power!"
"Like your brother, Ah Long, I have the power to achieve my dreams!"
"And today is the day I fulfill my dream!"
"Shrimp hahahaha"
The people around them became even more excited after hearing Hody's words.
That's right, today is the day they move from Fishman Street to Fishman Island!
Starting today... they can also live on Prosperity Fishman Island!
Ahahahaha!
"Hmph, it's laughable that a mere Arlong sister dares to interfere with our captain's will." —A member of the New Fishman Pirates.
"Dharma said."
"That's true." Icarus, a member of the New Fishman Pirates, nodded and said, "Does this guy really think he can defy Captain Hody just because he has a little bit of strength?"
"How utterly ridiculous!"
Even if this woman had never made a mistake in her predictions in the past, these people would still care about such things.
After all... there are 100,000 of them!
Even if Straw Hat Ichikura really came here, they would still be afraid!
Hody was very satisfied with his subordinates' reaction, because it was an affirmation of his will!
"Let me tell you something even more interesting," Hody said with a cold smile, looking up at the fish-men above. "The one who killed your beloved Queen Otohime ten years ago... was me!"
Upon hearing this, the square immediately fell into a deathly silence.
"Otohime..."
Neptune stared in disbelief, his eyes wide. He had actually died at the hands of this man?
Is it human?
Yi Ping's eyes widened at this moment, but like Neptune, he remembered what west Yan had said before.
words.
The truth is... just as west Yan guessed, it was this Huo Di who did it!
How dare Hody do that?
Bai Xing lowered her head, tears welling up in her eyes.
"How could this be..." The fish-men high above looked at Hody in disbelief and said, "Queen Otohime was actually killed by Hody?"
"Then what happened to humanity before?"
Does this mean that Queen Otohime was killed by a human?
Why did it turn into Hody?
"That human was someone I paid to hire," Hody said with a sneer. "I had him burn the signed letters around Queen Otohime to create chaos."
"It was at that moment that I personally killed Queen Otohime!"
"After doing this, I found the human who had found L beforehand and killed him, so that I could frame a human for Queen Otohime's death~"
"Shrimp hahahaha"
"You idiots, you've all been fooled by me!"
"Shrimp hahahaha"
Having taken in everyone's expressions, Hody threw his head back and burst into wild laughter, his heart pounding with excitement.
That's right, that's the reaction!
Shrimp Hahahaha "Damn it, this bastard actually killed Queen Otohime..."
"Hody, you bastard!"
"Shrimp hahahaha"
Looking at the weeping merfolk, Hody said sarcastically, "Whose fault is it that you can see it yourselves?"
In the end, they were just a bunch of idiots. Just then, Neptune behind Hody began to twist his body wildly and roared:
"Hody, you bastard!"
"I want.
"puff!"
Without giving Neptune a chance to continue, Hody swung his hand and knocked Neptune in the stomach.
Then, Hody sneered, "You'd better shut up, you arrogant king."
"I have no interest in listening to you."
"hateful.
Ping was hit in the abdomen, Neptune was covered in cold sweat, and the pain made it difficult for him to speak.
"King Neptune!"
"Father!"
"Damn it, Hody, you bastard!" the car crash star roared. "Stop it right now!"
"Hahaha"
"stop?"
Hody laughed wildly and said, "How can I stop?"
"After all... this king is just too much of an eyesore!"
"Hahaha!"
After laughing, Hody turned to Shirahoshi and said, "Right, Shirahoshi?"
"It's like selling your mother."
"As fish-men, they not only support our fish-men's resurgence against humans, but also choose to coexist peacefully with humans."
"Making friends with humans...what kind of traitor is that?"
At this point, Hody's expression became ferocious, and he went completely mad.
He then continued, "So I killed her!"
"Not only will I kill her, I'll also use her death to make her a courtesan!"
"I will use her death to reignite the fish-men's hatred for humans, and shatter the foolish daydreams of Queen Otohime and the islanders!"
"Hahaha~"
"How was it? Wasn't that scene I directed and acted in brilliant? I fooled you all!"
"Actually, it was never any human who could kill Queen Otohime, it was me!"
"It is I, Hody Jones, standing before you!"
"Hahaha~"
"Hahaha!"
At that moment, Hody felt immense satisfaction.
Because his plan was implemented very successfully, his dream is about to come true!
As for the so-called "Straw Hat Warehouse"?
Not worth mentioning!
"Damn it, Hody!"
"Queen Otohime..."
"Princess Shirahoshi..."
Standing on both sides, the fish people shed tears of pain at this moment, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
Who would have thought the truth would be like this?
"Damn it, standing next to Xiyan!" Nami clenched her fists, her eyes filled with rage.
At that moment, she thought of her past.
Ah Long also killed her mother right in front of her back then...
Thinking of this, Nami felt an overwhelming urge to rush up and kill the other person right now.
But Nami knew that now was the time to do these things, so she forced herself to calm down.
Then, using the power of the mirage, she walked towards the fish-men in the distance.
She wanted to steal the things as fast as possible!
At that moment, Hody looked at Shirahoshi and said, "Hey~"
"Shirahoshi, say something to me, the one who killed your mother."
"Of course, there won't be another chance later~"
"Shrimp hahahaha"
"Hahaha!"
"Shrimp..."
"I already knew about this," Bai Xing said, her face streaked with tears.
Hody: ? ? ?
Interrupted by Bai Xing's words, Hody was stunned. He already knew... what did it mean?
The others also showed expressions of disbelief upon hearing this, clearly not expecting Bai Xing to say such a thing.
She...already knew?
