Chapter 534 Undersea Attack
It is indeed against the rules for the World Government to issue orders without authorization. Although the Navy is a subsidiary of the World Government, they are also two separate organizations. Wouldn't it be chaos if anyone can issue orders without authorization?
Soon the Den Den Mushi in Vic's arms started chirping. After Vic answered the call, Sengoku's voice came from the other end, asking him to switch shifts with Kizaru to protect Vegapunk. This time Vic agreed without hesitation. He really wanted to find Vegapunk.
In the eyes of Zhan Guo, this was such an obedient and good boy. He thought of so many words of persuasion but he didn't say a word. This shows that as long as you follow the rules and don't let Vic suffer any grievances, then Vic can become the sharpest knife in the navy, and there will be no problem in raising the status of the navy to a higher level!
You gave him the position of admiral, so why do you have to test him? It really made people feel uncomfortable in the end, and then this sharp blade would be useless! But Zhan Guo was also helpless. He was in a high position, and he was no longer considering the gains and losses of one person and one ship!
After hanging up the phone, Vic ignored the masked man and continued to visit the Sabaody Archipelago with Rebecca and Ian. The masked man sat up and looked at the backs of Vic and the other two for a long time without leaving.
The eyes behind CP0's mask were cold and bloodthirsty. Vic in front seemed to sense something and paused for a moment before continuing to move forward. However, it was this step where Vic stopped that made the masked man's face change drastically and his back was covered in cold sweat. He quickly stood up and disappeared in a few flashes.
Vic hadn't originally planned to stay in Shampoo Land for long. He just came to see what tricks Satan was up to. Now that he has a new mission, he doesn't have to worry about the affairs of the Seven Warlords of the Sea anymore.
Then he stayed in Shampoo for several days and let the warships receive coating at the naval base. This time he was going to the New World from Fishman Island. Such a big thing had just happened in Marijoa. Vic suspected that Im had been alarmed. He was afraid of being noticed by Im. It was not suitable to go there now, so he had to take the Fishman Island route.
These days, Vic could feel a strong aura coming from the lawless land at the naval base. He believed that the other party could also feel his power. The two of them just looked at each other across the island and had no plans to meet.
Vic knew that it was most likely Pluto Rayleigh, and Rayleigh probably knew him because he had taken action on the island before. Xia Qi's intelligence ability was also excellent, and Vic had obtained intelligence from Xia Qi before, so Rayleigh must have known him as well.
Vic also disguised himself and went to find Ben, an intelligence officer whom Vic had met a long time ago in Shampoo and Politics, and he had given Ben a lot of money before to help him expand his team.
Vic wanted a timely intelligence organization to serve him personally, and he went there to give money. He had realized that their relationship could not be made public, so he had never contacted him before, as a way of cooling down their relationship in the eyes of everyone.
But Ben is now secretly working for Vic. Vic has provided a lot of money to expand the intelligence team. Although Ban is also selling intelligence to other people, he is still unable to make ends meet. Vic must continue to inject funds. When Ben can be self-sufficient, this intelligence network will be successful, and Vic will be able to provide some useful intelligence to Dorag.
In addition, Vic did need to ask Ban for something, which could have been discussed over the phone, but since he had come to Shampooland, he gave the order directly in person.
This was actually a chain reaction caused by Vic. Originally, Kerla would have boarded Tiger's pirate ship three years later and returned to her hometown, Forshat Island, under the escort of the Sun Pirates.
Although this incident was a conspiracy by Kizaru, who used Kerla as bait to ambush Tiger, Kerla eventually returned to his hometown.
But now that Vic has killed Tiger openly, it is hard to say what will happen to Kerla in the future. She is an outstanding talent of the future Revolutionary Army. Since Vic has become an ally of the Revolutionary Army, he naturally cannot let her slip away. So the task that Vic gave to Ben was to find Kerla and secretly send her back to Forshat Island.
......
After the warship was coated, Vic set sail directly and dived into the sea. Because of his previous relationship as a user with special abilities, Vic still had some resistance to the seabed.
But now he is not afraid anymore. He has many ways to survive on the seabed. The big sea beasts and fish that want to destroy the coating cannot get close to the warship at all. They all know the color of seeing and hearing and take turns to keep watch. If any large fish approach, they will be rewarded with Vic's lightning. As long as the coating is not broken, what danger is there in the seabed?
As for the sea currents? With advance warning from the Observation Haki, they would basically not encounter them. So after Vic stunned countless large fish, the warship finally went deep into the seabed from the trench to 10,000 meters below the sea. A bright light appeared in front of them, and Vic knew that was where the Fishman Island was.
The underwater voyage, which is extremely dangerous in the eyes of ordinary people, is really easy in the eyes of the strong. Vic and his crew are just like this. The warships did not even collide with each other, and they could even keep the lights on, so the big fish attracted would not get too close before sinking to the bottom.
It would be much more convenient if Victor had Conqueror's Haki. Victor felt that it was really stupid for Luffy not to use Conqueror's Haki to clear the way when he went to Fishman Island. So many people were busy, but something went wrong in the end. If it weren't for the protagonist's treatment, it would be normal for a few people to die.
Just when Vic ordered the warship to sail towards the light, Fishman Island had already received news that a naval warship was coming to Fishman Island.
Moreover, there are two forces, one is the royal family headed by Ryugugu, and the other is Jinbe's gang headed by Fishman Street. The reason why they know this is very simple, fishmen and mermaids can communicate with many aquatic creatures.
You wouldn't notice the fish swimming around the warships for the purpose of exploring, because isn't it normal to have fish in the sea? People who don't know about this don't care about the fish, and Vic also ignored it.
When Vic and his companions arrived under the big bubble of Fish-man Island and were marveling at the magic of Fish-man Island, the warship was surrounded by a group of fish-men riding on sea beasts. Vic had originally planned to just take a look at Fish-man Island from outside and then go directly to the New World, but now he was stopped.
This was actually the trouble caused by Vic "killing" Fisher Tiger. The hidden story could not be told clearly, so other people naturally did not know the truth. So in their eyes, Vic was the murderer who killed Tiger and the enemy of their entire Fishman Street.
Therefore, any navy passing by Fishman Island will be intercepted and interrogated by the thugs from Fishman Street. Now that they have met the real culprit, there will be no amicable end!
"Hey, hey, hey! Isn't this Xuanlong, the murderer who killed Brother Tiger? What a narrow road for enemies, I didn't expect you to fall into the trap so soon, hahahaha! Go and tell Brother Jinbei, let us take care of these navy people!"
A big-mouthed fishman with many bright spots on his body laughed. He was riding on the back of a giraffe-like sea beast. He originally just wanted to check it out. The navy was not something they dared to touch easily. Not to mention that the Neptune royal family would not sit idly by, even Jinbei did not want to provoke the navy, as that would bring a huge disaster to Fishman Island.
So they were patrolling spontaneously, trying to find the murderer who killed Tiger, and they didn't think that humans could defeat the mermen in the seabed, especially in this helpless deep sea. As long as the coating of the warship was scratched, all humans would roll their eyes, so this merman was very confident that he could take down Vic and other navy men.
The words of the spotted fishman spread quickly, and a very flat fishman swam away quickly. Judging from the direction, it was not heading to Fishman Island, so its purpose should be to go to Fishman Street to report to Jinbe.
When the other murlocs saw someone reporting the news, they all came over to surround the warship. They surrounded the entire warship. Further out were murlocs riding on various sea beasts, all staring at Vic with resentment, ready to kill Vic and then take him to Tiger's grave to pay tribute to him.
"I advise you to wait until that Jinbei arrives before deciding whether to take action. Have you ever thought about the consequences of taking action against our navy?
You are bringing disaster to Fishman Island. Your names will be on the Fishman Island's pillar of shame because you will kill many, many compatriots. Can you afford this price?"
Vic was not in a hurry. These fishmen were no different from the big fish that wanted to attack the warship before. They could be killed before and they could be killed now. It was just that Vic was just passing by this time and did not want to have a conflict with them because he did not really kill Tiger.
Moreover, the fish-men race has been persecuted throughout known history. This was done intentionally by the World Government. The reason is most likely that Aquaman stood on Joyboy's side 800 years ago, so different camps must be suppressed.
Therefore, the celestial dragons' liking for mermaid slaves is not entirely due to a special fetish, there is also political conspiracy involved. Things that are pursued by the most noble celestial dragons must naturally be of the highest level.
This led to the princes, nobles and wealthy people following suit, and a market was born. The mermen then fell into disaster, so Vic didn't want to take action against them, except for extremists like Hody Jones.
"Hahaha! This is a 10,000-meter deep sea. Anything could happen. It's just a warship. Who knows where it will sink? We can guarantee that your news will not get out.
Then Fishman Island won't have any trouble. I think Brother Jinbei will be very happy to see your corpses! Everyone, go together, tear off the coating of the warship, and let these humans taste the horror of the sea 10,000 meters below the sea! "
It was still the same spotted big-mouthed fishman who was shouting. It seemed that he had a certain prestige among these fishmen, like a small leader.
This fishman does have some brains. He knows how to kill people and destroy the bodies. It is indeed difficult to track down people in the deep sea. However, this fishman is still a little narrow-minded. He doesn't know the magical power of the devil fruit. With so many people watching at the scene, no one can escape if they really want to investigate.
