760 The old dragon king opens the door! (7200 words)(1/3)
"Long time no see! Kemi!"
Luffy, Nami and others waved happily on the coated boat and said happily, "I bumped into you directly, what a blessing!"
After recognizing clearly that it was Lynch, Robin, Luffy and others, Cammy recovered from her panic, smiled and said, "Long time no see."
"They are my good friends. We used to work together in the Mermaid Cafe." Kemi introduced the quintuplet little mermaids to everyone.
Hearing the name of the Mermaid Cafe, Sanji and Brooke naturally began to daydream, but Lynch's heart moved. They "used to" work together? Hey, are they unemployed?
The little mermaids of the quintuplets said one after another as if they were counting in military training: "I am the first medaka. I am the second medaka. I am the third medaka. I am the fourth medaka. I am the number 2 of the four medaka!"
"Why not Killerfish!" Usopp and Chopper raised their hands and complained.
"Hehehe..." Cammy chuckled, "People often say that!"
"You said we were colleagues before. In other words, did you lose your job?" Robin said to himself, "Could it be that after returning from the human world a year ago, he was ostracized by his companions on Fish-Man Island, so he couldn't find it?
Working, I can only make a living by picking up garbage on the dark seabed around this place. In the end, I will be destitute and can only be reduced to a few mermaid bones in the sand of the seabed..."
Nami, Usopp, Chopper, and Merry were all frightened into emoticons. Robin, why did you say such a terrifying guess with such a calm look on your face!
"Not at all," Kemi sweated, forced a smile, and sighed, "Because a few days ago, powerful pirates invaded Fish-Man Island, which was really scary, so some residents temporarily left Fish-Man Island and now live in
In other places."
"That's right, he's a pirate, and he has a white beard!" said the red-haired First Killerfish. "There is a white beard." The blond Second Killerfish nodded. "There is no white beard!" The orange-haired Third Killerfish retorted. "It should be.
You have a white beard, right?" said the pink-haired Siji Rourou. "So what if I have a white beard?" The brown-black-haired Siji No. 2 continued to argue.
White beard?!
Luffy and the others were obviously shocked. They saw the body of Father Whitebeard being taken away by Ace and others a year ago!
Is it Bai II? Lin Qi thought to himself, Bai II didn't follow his old woman to become a Shichibukai and come here to cause harm to Fishman Island?
He remembered the broken wooden planks of the Big Mom Pirates' Homitz ship he encountered on the way...
Once Whitebeard died, the territory he once commanded, including Fish-Man Island, was in real trouble. Fortunately, Ace and Marco were still supporting the new Whitebeard Pirates who insisted on not disbanding.
"Come with me first..." Kemi and the others swam in front of the Lion Head Pirate Ship and led the way, "If you want to go to Fish-Man Island, I can take you there later."
Frankie turned on the bow searchlight, and the light formed two divergent light paths in the water.
"However, generally when the fish-men's pirate ships arrive at the bottom of the sea, they are usually very close to the fish-men island..."
Kemi's voice in front made Zoro shake his head and sigh: "There is no way, they are so unreliable that they got lost at the bottom of the sea."
Many fists hit his face at the same time, causing it to become deformed.
"Hehehe..."
There was a lot of joy on the boat, with six mermaids, one big, five small and six small, swimming in the light and shadow in front of them. Around them, there was the powerful and low sound of the sea currents and the melodious roar of whales as Rab's huge body swam by. Everything was like a dream.
…
Soon, Sonny and Labu followed the mermaids who led the way and arrived at a town on the bottom of the sea.
"Is this Fishman Street?"
Lin Qi stepped on the side of the ship and glanced around. The sparse underwater houses formed a small village, and fish and mermaids of different shapes appeared in the streets and alleys.
However, he did not find the ship "Noah" as big as a mountain.
Kemi said in surprise: "Lin Qi, do you know Fishman Street? However, this is not..."
With the mermaid's explanation, everyone had a close understanding of the culture of the seabed for the first time.
Obviously, the Fish-Man Island, which is built in the Yangshu Eve and can enjoy the warm sunshine and fresh air sent to the seabed by the Yangshu, is the center of the entire underwater civilization and the most dazzling orb and lighthouse.
In other words, not all fishmen and mermaids live on Fishman Island.
After all, undersea races have thrived and existed for countless years. How could a small island in such a not-so-huge bubble be able to accommodate them all?
There are also many fish-men living in other places under the sea.
However, the closer you get to Fishman Island, the higher the level of socialization.
After all, the ocean is too big, and most of the fish-men are like wild animals, roaming freely and living under the sea. Only in the circles close to the fish-man island can basic underwater villages be formed unconsciously.
, and "Yumman Street" is the most famous among these surrounding underwater villages. After all, Fishman Street is "full of martial virtues", and there are often brave residents who join the Kingdom's army on Fishman Island, and they have become famous ever since.
Fish leap over the dragon gate and the like. Ordinary fishmen in underwater villages live a Buddhist life, occasionally picking up some items from human society that have sunk to the bottom of the sea to cultivate their sentiments...
or……
Go to work on Fishman Island.
Looking at the back of Kemi who was swimming to the underwater village to greet acquaintances, Sanji, Brooke and others felt quite complicated. Kemi had been on the boat for a while before, and they had already seen a little bit about human beings' discrimination against mermaids. And
This pure underwater world of Fishman Island does not seem to be a real fairy tale world. It is not as dreamlike as imagined before.
Lin Qi was a little curious, was Kemi a girl from the city who was dragged away to the village, or a young girl who went to work in the city and was finally dragged back?
"Don't make random assumptions." Robin patted Lynch on the arm.
Are you serious? Lynch turned to stare at her, Comrade Robin, you are the only one who has no right to criticize me in this regard, right?
Robin blinked at him innocently, expressing confusion.
Not long after, Kemi swam back again and waved: "Let's go, Fish-Man Island is not too far away."
Sanji discovered that the quintuplet little mermaids had no intention of going together.
"Rabu, your body is too big to enter the Fish-Man Island." Kemi shouted to Labu in a distant voice, "Just let the first killifish, the second killifish, the third killifish, the fourth killifish and the fourth killifish number two
Let’s take you to play around under the sea.”
"Let's play! Play. If you don't want to play, you can play, right? Play, so what?"
The quintuplet little mermaids chattered at each other again, and Labu swam happily in the sea. The quintuplet little mermaids swam as fast as five torpedoes side by side, and they played with Labu, the huge island whale.
Complement each other interestingly.
"Speaking of which, Rab is a whale, right?"
On the Sunny, which left with Kemi, Usopp sighed, "It's amazing to be able to stay in the deep sea for so long!"
"There are a lot of whales over there, too." Chopper pointed in another direction, and sure enough, there were dozens of large whales that looked like sperm whales swimming by slowly.
Lynch and Robin were at the stern of the boat, looking at the underwater village where Kemi and the others lived gradually going away.
"What's wrong?" Sanji passed by carrying a drink he had just made.
Lin Qi said: "In that village, we didn't see many children."
Sanji smiled and said: "Maybe we went out to play, after all, the seabed is so big. Isn't that what Ichiko and the others are like?"
"Maybe." Robin said, took Sanji's new drink, drank a few sips, drank half of it and couldn't finish it, and handed it to Lynch to destroy.
…
"We're here. There's Fish-Man Island ahead."
Led by the mermaid, the film-coated Sonny slowly stopped outside a huge bubble ball. It seemed like a huge landscape ball, with diffused colors in the stripes of the Sun Tree Eve that went straight to the bottom of the sea on both sides.
Under the sunlight, the scenery on Fishman Island looks like a dream. It is a double-layered ball structure. On top of the huge main bubble, there is a much smaller bubble, and you can vaguely see a bubble inside.
building.
Of course Lin Qi knew that that was where the royal palace of Fish-Man Island was located. The official name of the Fish-Man Kingdom was Dragon Palace Palace, so it was naturally called Dragon Palace.
Kemi led everyone to the passageway directly in front of the Fishman Island, which is equivalent to the port of the human island.
Ding~dong
Kemi pressed the button at the entrance of the passage, like a doorbell, and soon a gruff voice asked: "Who is it?"
"I am the mermaid Kemi from the Mermaid Cafe..." Kemi said a little nervously, "The Straw Hat Pirates are going to enter the new world through here and apply to enter Fish-Man Island..."
"'Straw Hat Pirates'? That sounds familiar...wait a minute!"
"Wait a minute, this matter is important, we need to ask the king for instructions..."
Kemi was negotiating at the front, and the group on the Sonny was a little idle.
Usopp muttered: "Ryuugu Palace is a franchised country, right? We are pirates, can we enter after saying hello like this? It's really strange..."
"That's right!" Chopper was shocked, "We are pirates! There won't be any navy out there to catch us, right?"
Franky said: "Don't worry, there is no navy stationed on Fish-Man Island. Even with the navy's technology, it still depends on luck if you want to arrive at Fish-Man Island safely every time!"
Zoro smiled and said: "It has become a routine for pirates to go to the new world through Fish-Man Island. Can the navy handle it?"
"Idiot, the ocean is 10,000 meters deep. The navy can't control it even if it wants to." Sanji lit up his cigarette and complained.
"..."
Lynch folded his arms and stood side by side with Robin next to him.
"As an adult on the ship, you can't let your guard down casually."
The two of them quietly stared at the "big landscape ball" under the bright sunshine in front of them.
After waiting for a long time, there was no new response from the guards of the Dragon Palace opposite the entrance of the passage.
To be continued...
