Chapter 355: The New Fishman Pirates are Destroyed
Looking at Shirahoshi, who is different from the childish girl she was ten years ago, both of them have undergone earth-shaking changes.
Bai Xing stared at Arthur blankly, and then suddenly burst into tears when she remembered the promise she made ten years ago:
"Master Arthur, are you here to fulfill your original promise and bring Shirahoshi and everyone else to live on land?"
Promise... Arthur lowered his head. He had indeed made many promises.
But many of them were not completed.
Arthur was grabbed by Shirahoshi with both hands and held tightly in his hands.
She rubbed her face against Arthur frantically, making Arthur feel very uncomfortable.
"Master Arthur, Shirahoshi wants to leave here, with Mekalo."
Because of Banta Daiken's extreme proposal and constant threat to Shirahoshi with the power of the Target Target Fruit.
Shirahoshi was forced to stay in the Shell Tower for ten years from the age of six, with only his beloved shark, Mekalo, for company.
Almost no one talked to her.
Now that Arthur had arrived, she was extremely happy again.
Inside the house, hiding in a corner was a gigantic shark, not much different in size from the nearly 12-meter-tall White Star.
It was startled furtively, and suddenly realized that a pair of eyes were staring at it.
"Uh...!" Mekalo followed the gaze and found that Hancock was looking at it curiously.
"A shark wearing clothes, Arthur! This is the first time I've seen one. He looks so timid."
Shirahoshi heard the noise and looked behind her big pink bed.
And said to Hancock:
"Please don't hurt Mekalo. He is my beloved pet and my only companion for the past ten years."
"It's okay, she won't hurt it." Arthur said to her in White Star's hand:
"As for life on land, Shirahoshi, I can't take you there yet."
This news made Shirahoshi feel a little disappointed, but it was soon overwhelmed by the joy of Arthur's arrival.
"I just stopped by to see how you were doing. But don't be sad, at least I can let you say goodbye to this Hardshell Tower Prison before I leave."
"Really? Lord Arthur?!" Shirahoshi became even more excited when he heard the news.
She was always afraid because she would be killed if she left the tower.
"Of course, seeing you grow up healthy and into a big girl, I feel relieved."
Arthur spoke to her without any purpose, he just spoke out of concern for her situation.
Bai Xing wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled like a flower. She hadn't been so happy in a long time.
"Thank you, Lord Arthur." She kept saying thank you.
Outside the Hardshell Tower, Neptune's eyes kept lingering on Arthur.
I thought to myself: "With that man by Shirahoshi's side, Shirahoshi's safety can be assured. We can finally get rid of Banta Deiken and the others who want to overthrow the Fishman Island regime."
After reuniting with White Star for a while, Arthur slowly walked out of the Hard Shell Tower with Hancock.
"Tell me about it, Neptune." He asked, standing under Neptune's huge tail scales:
"That Banta Daken guy."
Neptune did not hide anything and opened his heart to Arthur and said:
“That guy is the descendant of the captain of the Flying Pirates, named Banta Daken IX, a broad-striped tiger shark man.
Because he ate a devil fruit, he cannot swim in the sea as a fishman and calls himself a cursed fishman.
He lives in Noah's Ark and recently got together with a group of young people who call themselves the New Fish-Man Pirates.
I want to overthrow the rule of Fishman Island and become the new king."
"The New Fishman Pirates? Why not let Jinbe come forward to deal with it?" Arthur knew about this pirate group, but now his memory was fuzzy and he wanted to learn more about it. "
"Arthur, after the Battle of Marineford, Jinbe became mentally unstable due to excessive killing.
He is not on Fishman Island, but wandering around the human world all day long."
Neptune responded to Arthur's question.
Upon hearing the news, Arthur became silent because he was the one who started the War of Marineford.
It was also he who caused Jinbe to become mentally unstable.
"In any case, Arthur, you must do me a favor! Even if it means letting me marry Shirahoshi to you!"
"Father...you...what are you talking about?" Inside the Hard Shell Tower, Shirahoshi blushed and almost fainted when she heard this:
"How am I worthy of Lord Arthur?"
"Are you willing to do that?" Arthur grinned and glanced at the jealous Hancock behind him:
"Is there any important reason?"
Hancock glared at Arthur with disdain, and Arthur found her fierce look very cute.
"Fishman Island's banned drug, a drug called the murder drug, was stolen yesterday!"
Neptune tells Arthur:
“I suspected the guards around me and my three sons.
But when I learned that the captain of the new Fishman Pirates, Hodi Jones and his gang, together with Banta Daken, wanted to overthrow this country.
I concluded that it must be that group of people who stole the banned drugs, because Hoddy Jones was a guard at the palace before that! "
"That little red pill that has huge side effects, sacrifices lifespan, and increases combat effectiveness in a short period of time?" Arthur had seen that thing ten years ago.
When he first arrived, his thoughts were quite extreme, and he forced Neptune to do many things.
"That's right! That thing is very dangerous. You must help me, sir!"
Neptune pleaded with Arthur, expressing his great concern for the plight of the people of Ryugu Castle and Fishman Island.
Almost every day, human pirates are thrown into the streets to create panic.
The country was now in a mess, he couldn't find any enemies and was powerless to do anything.
"Give me the exact location, and I'll help you get rid of the leader. You can deal with the rest of the minions on your own."
Arthur agreed immediately. He thought he should not refuse such a favor from heaven.
……
Outside the Fishman Island Palace, inside the huge Noah's Ark, in a moss-covered room.
A group of fishmen gathered together and were discussing how to divide the territory of the Fishman Island Kingdom.
"Baaaaaaaaa! Hodi! I only want Princess Shirahoshi, and I can give you everything else!"
In the conference room, Banta Deacon IX spoke to a burly great white shark man.
A leader of the poor villages of Fishman Island, the leader of many fishmen who oppose the current regime of the country.
Hodie Jones has black hair.
He wore a flat hat with a trident pattern on it and a wolfskin scarf around his neck.
The large tattoo on the left arm (including the "Dragon Gang" tattoo) means the tattoo is on the right lower abdomen.
There is a scar on the upper left side of his abdomen. He is smiling smugly and talking to Deacon.
“We have recruited nearly 100,000 murlocs who are against Neptune’s policies!
Daken, if you just help a little more, you can get White Star!"
"I'll do you any favor, Hodi. You become the new king! I'll marry Shirahoshi. It's a win-win cooperation!"
Outside Noah's Ark, everyone was discussing countermeasures.
Deep under the sea, there was suddenly an earth-shaking commotion.
The four huge iron chains, each a hundred meters thick, quickly surrounded Noah's Ark.
Four iron chains extended infinitely around Noah's Ark.
"Where did these transparent iron locks come from?!"
"This is the deep sea 10,000 meters below, what on earth is that?!"
"Captain, someone is coming this way!"
While everyone was shocked, one cadre looked towards Noah's Ark not far away.
On a long soul chain, Arthur and Hancock were wrapped in a layer of bubbles and slowly walked towards Noah's Ark.
Every time Arthur took a step forward, a chain would extend from under his feet to serve as a standing point.
Whitehoshi and Neptune swam in the deep sea around them, following closely behind them.
"Impossible, that is a human?"
"Wait... that human looks familiar... bring me the wanted warrant!"
When Hodi saw Arthur's appearance, he suddenly felt as if he had seen him somewhere before.
Having been attacking human ships at sea for years, they know everything on land.
Bang!
Four soul chains, each a hundred meters thick, bound Noah tightly to the spot.
"It's right there, isn't it? When I came here, I felt there were creatures in there."
Arthur looked at Noah who was locked by his ability and sensed a large group of creatures inside.
"Found it! Captain Hodi! The bounty from twenty-two years ago!"
On Noah's Ark, a cadre of the new Fishman Pirates took out an old brown paper bounty order.
He compared it with Arthur's appearance, then handed it to Hodi with a smile.
"The bounty... 36 billion..." When Hodi received the bounty order and saw the astonishing bounty.
He froze in place, his whole body numb with fear.
"What! 36 billion Baileys? How can we defeat this guy?"
“Even Brother A-Long only has 3 million!”
"Ten times... a hundred times... No, Brother A'long's bounty is more than a hundred and twenty times higher!"
"Why would such a guy help Neptune? What is their relationship?"
Hodie Jones was so frightened that his entire body was shaking, and even his subordinates around him instantly lost their fighting spirit.
At this moment, Daken fixed his eyes on Shirahoshi's huge body.
He opened his arms and shouted in the direction of Shirahoshi:
"She has grown so big... It's amazing... That power... must also be..."
As he said this, he suddenly turned around and looked at the timid New Fishman Pirates:
"Hodi, don't you have a deadly drug? Besides, this is the deep sea, you are invincible!"
When Hodi heard Daken's words, he came back to his senses from the fear of Arthur's high bounty.
"Yes! Everyone! This is our home ground!"
"As long as you puncture the bubble layer around that human, he will be crushed to death instantly by the water pressure!"
After Huodi finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed a handful of the deadly drug and stuffed it into his mouth.
Seeing this, his men followed suit and all swallowed the banned drug called es.
The sclera and iris of any murloc who swallowed this medicine turned red at the same time, making them look extremely scary.
Muscles swell and blood vessels bulge!
Even the hair color turned white under the influence of the drug.
Arthur looked at the group of out-of-control fishmen expressionlessly.
After taking the banned drugs, their body size doubled.
"Hancock."
"Yes! Darling~!" After responding to Arthur, Hancock looked forward sharply:
"I will let them know their ignorance now!"
Hancock fixed her eyes on the Ark Noah, and instantly a domineering aura gushed out of her body.
The domineering aura of the king instantly covered the entire deep sea nearby like a wave!
The deep sea suddenly became gloomy.
Red arcs burst out from her pupils, and the deep sea trembled and cracked into spider-web-like cracks in the void.
The creatures a hundred feet away fell like wheat waves, foaming at the mouth, with expressions of horror frozen in their eyes, and their pupils had already dilated into ashes.
Neptune was suddenly shocked, his eyes fixed on Hancock:
"The Pirate Queen...! What a terrifying domineering aura!"
"I feel dizzy. What was that just now, Arthur, Lady Hancock?"
Shirahoshi shook her dizzy head and opened her eyes from the aftermath of the domineering color.
Of the rebel fishmen that had just been on Noah's Ark, only a few cadres were left staring at Hancock beside Arthur in amazement.
“The King’s Haki is a kind of intimidating power of a king. It is difficult for ordinary creatures to stay awake in its aura.
But Shirahoshi, you didn't faint, which shows that you are also very strong."
Arthur explained to her, freezing an ice spear in his hand.
Then, it was thrown violently towards the huge deck where Hodi and his gang were.
The ice spear seemed to be unblocked by the resistance of the deep sea water.
It was extremely fast and instantly landed under Hodi's feet.
"Uh..." Hodi, still in shock, looked down at the ice spear in front of him.
"Goodbye." At this time, Arthur squeezed his palm.
The power of extreme ice instantly bloomed on Ark Noah.
With the ice spear as the center, the surrounding deep sea is freezing and solidifying madly!
The members of the New Fish-Man Pirates had no time to react and were turned into ice sculptures one after another and were trapped inside.
Neptune watched the whole thing in shock.
"Is this... the end?" he stammered.
"Yes, that's right." Arthur looked at Bai Xing calmly:
"Now, you are going to marry me, Shirahoshi."
