Chapter 766 Dinghai Shenzhen
[“Princess Shirahoshi, don’t worry… In a short while, Mr. Lynch and Ms. Robin will follow Captain Ace’s brother’s ship and arrive at… Fishman Island!”]
[“As long as they come, there is no need to shed tears or be afraid anymore.”]
…
The call of a school of fish woke Shirahoshi from her uneasy dream. She wiped her eyes, her tears were cool.
She was hiding in a coral reef on the seabed, with dozens of ribbon-like sea fish hovering around her. Looking up, the dense schools of fish not far away seemed to be forming a huge warning net for the mermaid princess.
A coral tree, like a guided missile, broke through the water flow and attacked White Star, but was blocked by a swarm of alert fish.
The fish chirped and shouted, warning Whitestar.
Vander Decken IX, who came walking on the coral tree, shouted, "Shirahoshi! My Shirahoshi! Don't run away anymore. As long as we get married and have your power, what does Hodi Jones matter to? That idiot of his actually wanted to kill you! You are the greatest treasure of Fishman Island! As long as we have you, Fishman Island will be peaceful again! Promise me now~ Hehehaha!"
“I don’t want to…”
The huge mermaid princess fled away, tearfully rejecting him, "I'm sorry, you're not my type..."
How fast can a mermaid swim? In this vast sea, it is impossible for a fishman like Vanderdecken, who doesn't seem to be very smart, to catch up with the mermaid princess who is trying her best to escape.
Moreover, the fish were also helping Shirahoshi, and they pushed up a large rock from the seabed and hit the coral tree under Vanderdecken's feet. The coral tree, which was tracking Shirahoshi because of the power of the "Target Target Fruit", stopped its power and fell to the bottom of the sea because of the obstacle. Vanderdecken was furious and wanted to vent his anger on the fish, but the fish had already retired after their success and had already scattered. Some of them continued to pursue the beautiful mermaid princess.
Please help me...
Help Fishman Island...
White Star swam desperately around the seabed, avoiding Vanderdecken's pursuit, while calling for help.
The fish along the way heard her voice and gathered around her, pointing her to suitable hiding places and providing cover for her against Vanderdecken who was tracking her.
Whoosh! The big rock thrown by Vanderdecken quickly chased after White Star. White Star circled in the underwater cave, and the rock hit the stone wall heavily and stopped.
Bang……
The water waves trembled in circles and finally calmed down.
Baixing poked his head out, breathed a sigh of relief, flicked his long pink tail, and continued to run forward.
…
[Bang…bang…bang…bang…bang…]
[The Dragon Palace seems to be shaking slightly. ]
[Inside the Hard Shell Tower, Shirahoshi is very uneasy and wants to go outside to take a look, but is afraid that it is a weapon thrown by Vanderdecken.]
[She quietly pushed open the door a little and saw the fishmen and the Dragon Palace guards fighting in the distance. She turned pale with shock and tears welled up in her eyes. What on earth happened? ]
【Where is my father? Where are my brothers? 】
[Mother, I’m so scared…]
[Shirahoshi is hiding in the Hard Shell Tower. Suddenly, the door is pushed open from the outside and a figure rushes in. "Princess Shirahoshi, let's go! We can't stay in the Dragon Palace any longer."]
[“Herman? You’re badly injured!” Shirahoshi was shocked and asked hurriedly, “What happened outside? Is my father and everyone else okay? Where’s Miss Reg? Where’s Mr. Labster?”]
[Long-legged tribe member Reg, fishman Labster, and human Herman, the three of them are members of the Whitebeard Pirates who stayed on Fishman Island to recuperate after the battle that defeated Whitebeard II a few days ago.]
[Herman wiped the blood off his body, and cautiously observed the outside through the crack of the door, and said in a deep voice: "A so-called new fish-man pirate group from Fish-man Street has launched a rebellion. They seem to have been plotting for a long time, and only started to act after the battle a few days ago when Captain Joz went to chase Weevil and left Fish-man Island... Now Fish-man Island has been controlled by them, the eldest prince has been captured, and King Neptune is in a dilemma and is no match for them!"]
[“So, Princess Shirahoshi, you must go.” Herman pushed open the door, “Quick, now.”]
[“No!” Shirahoshi said nervously but firmly, “I can’t abandon my father and brother… and everyone on Fishman Island…”]
[The mermaid princess burst into tears. Father, brother, didn’t we have to fulfill our mother’s dream together... to see the sun, to see the forest, to go to the sea... What happened? Why did it suddenly become like this?]
…
In the upper water, there is a flowing golden light. That is... the real sunlight...
Against the light, the mermaid princess floats in the deep sea, her back appears dim.
Bai Xing, who escaped here, looked up and stared blankly at the sea a thousand meters away.
That was her desire and dream for real sunshine and real air since she was a child, no, since her mother's childhood, and since generations on this Fishman Island...
After all, mermen and mermen are also human beings.
As human beings, why is it such a luxury to want to bathe in the sun and breathe fresh air?
…
[“That’s why you have to go! Princess Shirahoshi!”]
[He-Man shouted in a low voice, "The rebellious fishmen are afraid of the 'power' you possess, Princess. As long as you are alive, they dare not do anything to your father and brothers, nor do they dare to really harm Fishman Island. But if even you, Princess, fall into their hands, then everything will be over!"]
[“Wuwu…really?” Shirahoshi sobbed with tears in her eyes, “As long as I don’t get caught…”]
[“That’s right, the only way to survive is to separate. Reg and Labster have already gone to rescue the second and third princes, so there should still be hope!” Herman pushed open the door and smiled as he looked up. “Princess Shirahoshi, do you remember what we said? In a year, they will be here soon! Only if you escape, Princess Shirahoshi, can we delay them until they reach Fishman Island…”]
[“Really? Wuwuwu… wow…” Shirahoshi cried helplessly, “Really… will you really come to save us?… Wuwuwu…”]
[Herman, covered in wounds and blood, just smiled and gave Shirahoshi a thumbs up. ]
…
[When Shirahoshi left and swam quickly toward the outside of the Dragon Palace, Herman opened his thumb, tightly holding a sound shell.]
【Boom! He closed the heavy door, found a heavy object to prop it up, then staggered a few steps and fell into the hard-shell tower. He panted tiredly and clicked the sound box, from which came the helpless cry of Shirahoshi: "Really? Wuuuuuu... Wow... Really... Will you really come to save us?... Wuuuuu..."】
[“It’s Princess Shirahoshi’s voice!” “She’s in here!” “There’s something on the outer wall that Vanderdecken threw!”]
[Not long after, the voices of the new fish-man pirates were heard outside the door. ]
[We just need to hold them off for a while... With the mermaid princess' swimming speed, the fishmen can't catch up with her in the sea... Herman was originally recovering from his injuries, and now he can't hold on any longer. He slowly fainted, and the sound shell in his hand was still playing Shirahoshi's crying voice in a loop, "...Will they really come to save us?..."]
[Until an unknown amount of time had passed, the door of the hard-shell tower was kicked open with a "boom", and the white-haired strong man Hody Jones held the dead prince Shark Star in his hand and threw it into the hard-shell tower. He glanced inside coldly, and his eyes fell on the sound barrier of White Star's voice in Herman's hand. He suppressed his anger and said coldly: "You tricked us...you human!"]
…
Looking at the sea surface shining with warm sunshine, Bai Xing sniffed, wiped his tears, and swam back to the deep sea.
She couldn't really run away...
I have to let those people know that I am still near Fishman Island, so that they don't dare to really attack my father and brothers...
With Fishman Island as the center, Shirahoshi hid here and there, and Vanderdecken kept throwing things at him. These things gradually upgraded from harmless coral trees to stones, axes, swords and guns...
With the help of the school of fish, White Star can always know in advance that an attack is coming, and can quickly find terrain on the seabed that is suitable for avoiding damage from flying weapons.
Seeing the right moment, Shirahoshi swam towards the mountain on the seabed, turned at a right angle, and bang! The spinning flying axe that was chasing behind him crashed into the mountain and stopped.
Bai Xing bit her lip, tears welled up in her eyes. She suppressed her nervousness and fear and walked away quietly.
…
[“The Target-Target Fruit? This ability is actually pretty useless, right?”]
[Inside the Hard Shell Tower, the long-legged woman, Reg, crossed her legs, leaned on the huge fish tail of the White Star, and ate meat with big mouthfuls.]
[This is when we just defeated the chaos caused by White II on Fishman Island. Regg, who was recovering from her injuries, was chatting with the mermaid princess in the Hard Shell Tower to relieve her boredom. ]
[After she heard about Vander Decken who always threw garbage at the mermaid princess, she couldn't help but laugh. "If your palm is touched by other people, the target it points to will be covered; if the thrown object is blocked by an obstacle, it will be directly ineffective; the thrown weapon cannot be accelerated infinitely to increase the lethality, and it is even more difficult to be entangled with domineering... This ability can only be regarded as an auxiliary type, right? It can be used as a human pointer."]
[Shirahoshi lies on the side, mouth open, with an expression of "this is amazing".]
[The mermaid princess has a lovely and beautiful face that is naturally unparalleled in the world, but her head is a little big. Her head is taller than Reg when she stands up - Reg is a long-legged person! ]
[Reg pointed at her and said, "You are the fastest swimming mermaid, right? And you can communicate with fish. With such an advantage, why do you still want to hide in this hard-shell tower? You just need to call the fish, hundreds or thousands of them, and spread them around you to form a circle of warning nets. You can warn Vander Decken of the attack in advance. At that time, whether you find a suitable terrain to hide or directly let the guards raise their shields to block, it will be very simple!"]
[“Wow…” Shirahoshi was shocked. It seemed like this, why didn’t we think of it? “Ms. Reg, you are amazing. You know a lot about devil fruits!”]
[Reg took a bite of meat and laughed, "No, no, it's because... the two benefactors who saved our lives are very good at devil fruits, so I learned a lot of information about devil fruits."]
[“Benefactor?” Bai Xing blinked, with curiosity on his face.]
…
This is... the Ark "Noah"...
Somehow, Shirahoshi swam to the vicinity of the "Promised Ship" that had been passed down from generation to generation on Fishman Island.
There was Fishman Street all around, and Shirahoshi didn't want to be discovered by others, so he quietly went around and hid behind Noah.
Curled up in the fish's tail, Bai Xing fell asleep exhaustedly again surrounded by the school of fish.
Vaguely, I recalled what happened before.
…
[“Eh? Miss Reg, Mr. Labster, Mr. Herman, you…have done…did…”]
[Shirahoshi is extremely shocked and shows reluctance on his face.]
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
[Reg and the other three did not take it seriously and said with a smile: "Yes, we were all captured by the Celestial Dragons and used as slaves."]
[“It was Joe—Mr. Lynch and Ms. Robin who saved us.” Labster said in a deep voice, “If it weren’t for them, we would have died long ago. Not to mention the honor of joining the Whitebeard Pirates, I’m afraid we wouldn’t even be able to regain our freedom.”]
[Herman pierced the bandage on his arm, "A year ago, if it weren't for Lynch's help, I don't know if Ace could have been saved... The Whitebeard Pirates might have become 'history' after that battle."]
…
[“Princess Shirahoshi, don’t worry… In a short while, Mr. Lynch and Ms. Robin will follow Captain Ace’s brother’s ship and arrive at… Fishman Island!”]
[Herman, covered in scars, raised his thumb, smiled and said firmly, "As long as they come, there is no need to shed tears or be afraid anymore."]
…
[“The sea alone is very cold and dark... But you must hold on, Princess Shirahoshi, until Mr. Lynch and Miss Robin come..."]
…
…
Mr. Lynch...
Ms. Robin...
you……
"Come and save me!! Lynch!!! Robin!!!!!!"
"Brook!! Luffy!!! Help... Someone is hitting me!!"
Shirahoshi suddenly opened her eyes, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, covered her ears, and thought she had heard wrongly, but soon she found an island whale swimming towards her in panic, being chased and beaten by a bald giant sea monster, crying out in pain: "Lynch, Robin, Brook, Luffy, Zoro... It hurts... You idiots! Can't you understand what I'm saying? Wuuuu, you're not as good as Cammy... Help!!!"
"Don't run!" The bald sea monster chased after him angrily.
"stop!"
Bai Xing decisively swam out of the big ship Noah. In this dim sea, her whole body was so white that she seemed to be glowing, and she was as beautiful as the most dazzling pearl on the seabed.
"It's crying, don't hit it..."
Although she was so scared that tears were streaming down her face, the mermaid princess Shirahoshi still opened her arms, protected the island whale behind her, and stopped the angry bald sea monster.
Looking at the cute and blinking Lab, Bai Xing said in a trembling voice: "Are you... Mr. Lynch and Miss Robin's partner? Are you finally here... wuwuwu..."
Rab was even more confused. Who was this mermaid who looked like Cami? Did she know Lynch and Robin? And why was she crying? "Shirahoshi! My Shirahoshi! You are hiding here after all!!"
The Ark Noah behind him took off into the air at some point, and Vander Decken's shouting came from the other side.
Shirahoshi turned around suddenly and saw Vander Decken, wearing a bubble-coated suit, standing on the soaring Noah, roaring at Shirahoshi hysterically: "I begged you to marry me so shamelessly and humbly for ten years and you ignored me completely. But now you stand up to save a whale?!!! I'm so pissed off!!!! You want to protect Fishman Island, right? I'm going to destroy it completely!!! Hahahaha hehehehe... This is all because you refused to accept my love, Shirahoshi! It's all your fault!!!!!!..."
Vander Decken, who was shouting hysterically, left with Noah, who was flying away quickly in the direction of Fishman Island.
The only ones left there were Shirahoshi and Lab, who were stunned and shocked.
There was no time to react. Vander Decken went crazy on his own and did something... Why did Noah fly towards Fishman Island?
I'm clearly here! Bai Xing chased after him anxiously.
"Hey! Captain!" The giant bald sea monster stood there dumbfounded, opened his arms and said depressedly, "I haven't boarded the ship yet! Alas..."
…
…
…
"This is really incredible... Sonny, how about you stay under the sea for a while?"
In the Sea Forest, Franky looked up at the huge ark that was pressing down on the bubbles on the top of Fishman Island and kept squeezing in, and his eyes were about to pop out of his head in shock.
He deftly sank the Sunny into the water and ran quickly towards Fishman Island. He started with a few bangs, bangs, bangs, and stomped his feet hard. Boom, the ground cracked, and Franky flew into the air, snapping and snapping his feet with the Moon Step, and flew away quickly - his heavy body was not conducive to the Moon Step, but his modified body and legs with abnormal strength and power also offset this disadvantage.
…
[Fishman Island——]
Sanji used a spectral kick that was invisible to the naked eye, and kicked a drunk octopus swordsman unconscious.
The white-haired fishman who had fallen from the sky before had a bloody hole in his chest, but Hody Jones still stood up like a monster. He was beaten by Luffy's rubber gun and couldn't even get up. His body was covered with fist marks and dense dents. His muscles didn't even have time to recover their shape before he was hit by one punch after another...
All over the Fishman Island, groups of new members of the Fishman Pirates appeared one after another and were being harvested by the scattered Straw Hat and others.
At this moment, Usopp's panicked shout was heard in my ears.
"What is that?!"
Sanji looked up suddenly. Nami, Merry, Chopper, and Brook, who rushed out of the coral house with the fish-man children, also looked up at the sky. Franky and Robin, who rushed back from different directions of the Sea Forest, also looked up. The ark, which was almost half the size of Fish-man Island, was like a small island, pressing the bubble of Fish-man Island to collapse and bend, and squeezed in...
"How... is it possible... ahem..."
In the ruins, Hodie Jones's face became more and more ferocious, with powder of the murderous drug between his teeth. He stood up covered in blood, and through the bloody hole in his chest, he saw Luffy looking back in surprise.
This guy's vitality is so strange, why hasn't he collapsed yet? !
"Shirahoshi isn't on Fishman Island... Why can Vanderdecken..."
Hoddy Jones stared at Noah falling from the sky with crazy eyes and muttered to himself.
"Hey! Luffy, what should we do?"
Usopp, Sanji and the others were pointing at the sky. Nami and the others who were running over not far away were also waving from afar and pointing desperately at the sky.
"That's 'Noah'..." "Why is Noah here..." "Is Fishman Island finished?"
The residents of Fishman Island, including Kimi, sat down on the ground with weak limbs, staring blankly at the sky.
Luffy held down his straw hat and smiled, "Didn't you feel something coming?"
What is that? Usopp and the others were wondering when they heard Fran shout in surprise, "Oh~~ It's Lynch's super big stick coming!"
Nami turned her head and saw a blue-black line falling from the sky. It broke through the air and with a loud bang, it hit right below where Noah fell.
Long! Long! Long! Everyone seemed to be able to hear Lynch's familiar voice. At the same time, the blue-black iron rod that was inserted into the street of Fishman Island also "liberated" itself as if it were psychic, and the Franky-transformed alloy buried inside it was instantly released.
Bang! The dark blue iron rod expanded in place, becoming as thick as a washbasin and seven or eight meters high.
Bang! The dark blue iron rod expanded again, becoming as thick as a water tank and more than ten meters high.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The blue-black iron rod continued to expand, and finally turned into a huge blue-black iron rod with a diameter of 20 meters and a height of 300 meters.
In other words, it was like a dark blue pillar rising from the Fishman Island, stretching towards the falling Noah, and with a rumble, it supported its bottom...
