Tiger and Redhead get along well

At this time, the Redvers had begun to move and slowly left the coast.

Meli saw Tiger suddenly rush out of the cabin, jump off the deck, and run towards the dinosaurs. He hurriedly shouted, "Uncle Tiger, where are you going? We have to get out of here!"

Tiger didn't answer. He was very fast and passed Shanks and his group like lightning, which made Shanks and others look shocked and stunned.

Tiger rushed behind Shanks and the others, took a horse stance, and made a gesture with his hands, showing the starting posture of Fishman Karate.

"Secret technique—Ghost Tile Punch!"

Tiger shouted loudly and punched his hands forward. An invisible shock wave erupted instantly, sweeping towards the leading dinosaur with extremely strong force.

"boom---"

The dinosaur was knocked back more than ten meters and hit the dinosaur behind it, raising a large cloud of dust.

In an instant, a chain reaction was triggered, and the dinosaurs that were hit fell backwards one after another like dominoes.

"How amazing!" When Meli saw this scene, the whole octopus was stunned, his mouth opened wide, and his eyes were full of admiration.

The others were also stunned and couldn't help but slow down their pace of escape.

Tiger's fish-man karate was indeed powerful. He knocked down several dinosaurs with just one move, but this did not make the dinosaurs retreat. Instead, it further stimulated the dinosaurs' ferocity.

A dozen dinosaurs nearby roared and pounced on Tiger.

Tiger took a step back calmly, put his hands together, and suddenly struck out. Another powerful shock wave spurted out from his palms.

"This brother is really good!" Shanks sighed and shouted in the direction of Beckman, "Beckman, help me take care of Uta."

Before he finished speaking, Shanks picked up Uta from his shoulder and threw it hard in Beckman's direction, then turned around and ran back.

"Wow~~" Uta exclaimed.

As soon as Beckman turned his head, he saw a small figure flying towards him quickly. He stretched out his hand reflexively and caught Uta in a panic, his face turning extremely bad.

Seeing this, Gulishati couldn't help but yell, "Shanks! This is your daughter! Not a punching bag! Can you be more reliable?"

"Ah, don't worry, I'm sure Beckman will catch it."

"You idiot! Have you ever thought about the consequences of not catching it?"

"WALL-E! WALL-E!"

Shanks ran over to Tiger and grabbed Tiger's arm, but couldn't move it. "Hey, man, stop fighting!"

A hint of confusion flashed in Tiger's eyes, "Why not fight?"

"There are too many of these guys, and they get more aggressive the more we fight." Shanks patted Tiger's shoulder and grinned. "Thank you for coming to rescue us, but don't worry, we just don't want to bother with these things. Let's get out of here quickly."

Tiger glanced back and saw the others climbing onto the sailboat and sailing away from the shore.

Since there was no danger, Tiger nodded, turned around and ran towards the ship with Shanks.

Shanks and Tiger quickly ran to the edge of the beach. The Redforth had already sailed away for some distance, and the dinosaurs were about to catch up with them.

Tiger suddenly lowered his body, stretched out his big hand, grabbed Shanks' belt, and threw him hard towards the boat.

While Shanks was stunned, he was thrown out and landed on the deck.

Tiger dived into the sea and swam towards the boat with a nimble and fast speed.

Shanks couldn't help laughing while standing on the deck. When he threw Uta to Beckman just now, he never thought that just a few minutes later, he would also enjoy this service.

Looking at the figure moving rapidly in the water, Meili couldn't help but exclaim: "Uncle Tiger is so amazing!"

The other people on the deck were also stunned by this scene and nodded in praise.

"As expected of the fishmen!"

"He was injured, but I didn't expect him to still have such strong fighting power."

"What a monstrous physique!"

Tiger quickly caught up with the Redvers. He jumped into the water and rushed out of the sea like a red lightning. He grabbed the side of the ship with both hands, and with a little strength, he climbed onto the deck easily.

"Uncle, you are so awesome!" Uta ran to Tiger's side and looked at him with sparkling eyes.

Tiger lowered his head and looked into Utah's innocent eyes, which were exactly the same as those of the fish-man cubs on Fish-man Island. His heart softened: humans who would sail with cubs should not be bad humans.

"You're amazing too. You didn't get scared or cry when you were in danger."

"Yes! I, Wuta, am not a coward! By the way, my name is Wuta. I heard that you are a fishman, do you usually live under the sea? Can you see the sun and the moon under the sea?"

"Yes, most of the merfolk live on Fishman Island, over 10,000 meters below the sea. There are not only beautiful corals there, but also sunshine and clouds. It's a very beautiful place."

"Wow! That sounds interesting! I want to visit Fishman Island too. Uncle, can I come to your house?"

Tiger was stuck for a moment. Fishman Island was not very welcoming to the arrival of humans, but he was embarrassed to dampen Uta's enthusiasm. He felt a little embarrassed and stammered, "Uh..."

"Uta," Gulshati stepped forward and interrupted their conversation. She had already learned the fishman's name from Meli. "Tiger is still injured. Let him rest for a while, okay?"

Uta looked at Taige with concern: "Uncle, let me give you some heat so that the wound won't hurt."

As she spoke, she stood on tiptoe and blew a few breaths at Tiger, muttering softly, "Blow for you, it hurts, get better soon!"

Tiger was amused by Uta's childish yet serious behavior, and the embarrassment in his heart disappeared. He couldn't help but reach out and touch Uta's head: "Thank you. I feel much better now."

Beckman jokingly said, "It seems that our Uta-chan has successfully gained the recognition of his fish-man friends."

Shanks laughed heartily. "As expected of my daughter, she truly has the charm that makes people fall in love with her."

Just like that, Tiger let down his guard and, at the enthusiastic invitation of Shanks and others, stayed on the ship temporarily to recuperate.

Tiger is actually a very straightforward person, but the long-standing tense relationship between humans and fishmen made him particularly wary when he first saw humans.

However, Shanks, Beckman and others were generous and open-minded, and the atmosphere on the ship was very cheerful. The two sides quickly hit it off and got along very harmoniously and happily.

Tiger's injury recovered quickly. He wanted to say goodbye, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Merry's request to learn Fishman Karate. He thought for a while and happily agreed.

So, these days, Meli's life has become particularly fulfilling. He practices sword-swinging on the deck every morning, and dives into the sea with Tiger in the afternoon to learn fish-man karate from him.

——

The deep and quiet blue underwater world, with sunlight reflecting through the water surface, is so beautiful that it leaves you speechless.

Meli had no intention of appreciating the beautiful scenery. He looked at the tall figure in front of him and listened carefully to Tiger's teachings.

"Actually, the principle of Fishman Karate is to manipulate water. To some extent, it's similar to the water arrow attack you use to manipulate water," Tiger explained patiently as he demonstrated the opening move. "Water can take any shape, but of course, the most practical ones are cylinders and spheres..."

The surrounding water currents were pulled by an invisible force and transformed into various shapes. Tiger waved his hand casually, and the water currents flew out, hitting the distant reefs one by one, scaring the fish swimming around and making them flee in all directions.

Merry seemed to understand what he heard, but he couldn't help but ask his own question: "But, Uncle Tiger, when you used that trick on the island, I didn't see any water."

"Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The air on land actually contains a lot of moisture that's invisible to the naked eye. Even every living thing contains a large amount of water. The punch I throw will transmit the impact wave through the water in the atmosphere to the water in the opponent's body, causing the two to resonate..."

"So that's it!" Meli seemed to have opened the door to a new world.

"However, you must remember that our main battlefield is water warfare. In the water, our abilities in all aspects are dozens of times stronger than on land."

"Yes! I understand!"

"Okay, next you should practice the basic punching movements."

......

Merry and Tiger emerged from the sea and returned to the Redforth.

On the deck, Gulishati was buying a new newspaper from a newspaper gull.

After the newspaper gull took the money, it loosened its claws and a rolled-up newspaper fell into Gulishati's hands.

"You're back." Gulishati greeted the two of them with a smile while opening the newspaper.

Mellie and Tiger were still dripping with water, leaving sparkling streaks of water on the deck.

"Aunt Xiati, we are back." Meli responded and crawled towards Guli Xiati.

A new wanted poster fluttered out of the newspaper, swirling and drifting towards the deck.

Merry slid over and caught the wanted poster with his tentacles. When he saw the image on the wanted poster clearly, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and shouted in surprise: "Wow! Captain Shanks' bounty has increased again."

Gulishati's attention was drawn to something else. She was a little surprised: "Huh? Meli, can you understand human writing?"

"I can't understand much of the text," Meili said seriously, pointing a tentacle at the string of zeros on the wanted poster. "But I can still understand the amount on the wanted poster."

"550 million!?" Gulixia couldn't help but shout after counting the amount on the wanted warrant.

Hearing the noise, others gathered around, passing the new wanted poster around to each other, their faces filled with excited smiles.

"As expected of you, boss."

“Boss is awesome!”

"By the way, why don't we have a party tonight to celebrate the increase in bounty!"

"Great! And we haven't even celebrated becoming friends with Tiger yet!"

"Great! Let's have a party!"

......

The setting sun gradually sank into the sea level, and the sky turned into a brilliant orange-red.

The deck of the Redvers was filled with a variety of delicious food and fine wines, and it was very lively because of the banquet.

Punch, Uta, Mengshida and the monkey worked in perfect harmony and sang loudly. The others drank and ate meat, applauded and laughed continuously.

Tiger sat alone in a corner of the deck, looking at the laughing people. He was infected by the joyful atmosphere and couldn't help but smile.

For Tiger, the time he spent with the Red Hair Pirates was the first time he had such a happy time interacting with humans. He left Fishman Island to go on adventures, always wanting to find the answer to why fishmen and humans could not live in peace.

Now it seems that humans are not all that annoying.

Perhaps, as Princess Otohime said, the two sides really shouldn't continue to hate each other?
