Six Paths of Pirates

Chapter 147 Neptune Baixing
Led by Neptune, Nagato and Violet came to the residence of the Mermaid Princess, the Hard Shell Tower.

Seeing the scene in front of her, Violet couldn't help but sigh: "What a big door, what a solid wall."

She looked up and saw the various weapons stuck on the gate and the wall, with a hint of anger on her face: "Is this the weapon that Vander Daken threw?"

"That's right." Neptune nodded, and then directed the soldiers of Dragon Palace City to open the gate.

"What a hateful guy." Violet gritted her teeth.

At this time, with a rumbling sound, the thick and solid door was pushed open to both sides, revealing the real body of the mermaid princess.

In the tall and spacious room, a huge white mermaid curled up on the pink soft bed in the center. On her beautiful face, a pair of beautiful big eyes were looking here curiously.

"Hey, father, it seems that it's not the time to visit me normally." The beautiful mermaid is naturally Shirahoshi, she said softly.

"Father brought guests to see you today." Neptune walked in, and then introduced the two people behind him to Shirahoshi one by one, "This is a distinguished guest from Dressrosa, His Majesty Uzumaki Nagato and Violet Your Mightiness."

Bai Xing let out a surprise at first, and then realized that he seemed to be being rude, so he hurriedly and timidly apologized: "I'm sorry...that, hello, my lords."

It is a strange little habit of Shirahoshi to call everyone an adult, Nagato nodded slightly at this, and Violet replied with a smile: "I am not an adult, so I don't need to be called so politely, anyway, hello Ah, Princess Baixing."

Generally speaking, the same sex is more or less mutually exclusive, especially for beautiful women.But when she saw Shirahoshi for the first time, Violet fell in love with this huge but slender little girl.

Maybe it's because of Shirahoshi's love and pity for her after learning about Shirahoshi's experience, or maybe it's because Shirahoshi's innocent and weak temperament unconsciously infected her. In short, Violet feels that the mermaid princess in front of her is very eye-catching, and hopes to get close to each other .

"Okay, Violet-sama." Shirahoshi whispered to Violet's proposal.

Violet was dumbfounded by Shirahoshi's cute behavior, but she also understood that for a little girl trapped in the tower, socializing normally and freely is not so simple and natural.

After getting to know each other, Neptune stepped forward and told his daughter the reason for opening the door to meet each other.

He walked up to Bai Xing: "Bai Xing, haven't you always wanted to take a walk outside? Now you can leave the Hard Shell Tower."

Neptune caressed his daughter's hand and said, "Father has already made an agreement with His Majesty Nagato, and His Majesty will pick you up to live in Dressrosa. There is a lot of land, bright and Warm sunshine..."

Neptune tried to describe all this in beautiful terms, but had to stop before he could finish, because huge tears were already dripping from the top of his head.

Hearing Neptune's words at the beginning, Bai Xing was still happy and pleasantly surprised, but when he heard that he was going to Dressrosa, Bai Xing's eyes immediately filled with tears, and at this moment he even cried loudly: "Father, you Don't you want me? Woohoo!"

"No, no." Neptune hurriedly said, "Why would Father not want you? Don't cry, don't cry, Bai Xing, don't cry..."

Seeing this scene, Violet on the side couldn't help but feel distressed and pitied, and then hesitated: "Your Majesty..."

Just when Violet was about to ask Nagato if there was a compromise, a black shadow broke through the wind and interrupted her.

Shirahoshi's crying stopped suddenly, and Neptune also turned around abruptly. The two of them took a closer look, only to find that there was a sharp ax in Nagato's hand at some point.

The guards outside the gate rushed in to plead guilty. After Neptune signaled them to retreat, he thanked Nagato, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your action."

"It's easy to do, and this is the door that was opened because of me, as it should be." Nagato replied.

Behind Neptune, Shirahoshi's mood was like riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs.

As the target, she was undoubtedly shocked and frightened when she saw the ax flying straight towards her, but what was strange was that the spinning ax suddenly turned sharply for some reason, as if being sucked by a magnet, and fell into Nagato's hand by itself. .

"That's amazing!" Bai Xing couldn't help but exclaimed softly.

Nagato didn't respond to her cheers. He had been watching Neptune's speech before, but he finally came to Shirahoshi and said, "Let me get straight to the point. Princess Shirahoshi, I'm here for Aquaman."

Probably no one present could have expected him to be so straightforward, and they were all surprised for a while, but the specific reactions of the three people were different.

"You...are you a bad person!" Bai Xing said this sentence in an accusing tone as much as possible, trying to show his bravery, but his body shrank inward honestly.

"That's not the case..." Neptune looked left at Shirahoshi and right at Nagato, trying to smooth things over.

"Your Majesty!" Even Violet glanced at Nagato, her tone showed that she did not agree with Nagato being so direct.

Nagato was unmoved, but said to Shirahoshi: "My father is probably unwilling to tell the truth for the purpose of protecting you, but frankly speaking, as soon as she reaches Dressrosa, the princess will naturally know the truth ...I don't want you to feel cheated by it, nor do I want to keep taking care of an immature princess."

Nagato opened his palm to signal Neptune and Violet to let him finish first.

He continued: "Ancient weapons are a huge vortex that can drag the whole world into it. Your father has blocked the prying and coveting of the outside world for you for many years. This feeling of licking the calf is indeed admirable, but Princess Baixing, do you still want to see it?" How long will you stay under your father's protection?"

Nagato gently put down the sharp ax in his hand, and said pointingly: "How long can you stay under your father's protection?"

Shirahoshi's eyes were full of tears, and he looked back and forth between Nagato and Neptune. There was no special expression on Nagato's face, while Neptune's eyes were complicated.

Nagato continued: "I hope that the princess will mature, not only because I want to reduce troubles, but also because I hope that Fishman Island will not miss the opportunity."

He met the eyes of Shirahoshi and Neptune, and explained to them: "The talent of Sea King may be a heavy burden to the princess, and it is a danger that she can't wait to get rid of it completely, but have you ever thought that for more people? In other words, this is the talent they dream of, and even more so, the opportunity they can't even dream of."

"Perhaps the identity of Sea King has no choice, and it falls on the princess without discussion and consent, but the path to take as Sea King has always been in the princess's hands."

"With such a heavy weapon, no matter what goal you want to achieve, you should reduce the difficulty by three points before starting. Unfortunately, the princess doesn't know it. No matter who she faces, she has bargaining chips and room for maneuver. I'm here to admit it too."

"So solving Van der Daken and basking in the sun is nothing more than an easy thing to do. Even eliminating discrimination and standing above the sea is not impossible or even hopeful. The current situation is far from it. The key to the difference lies in whether the princess is a vassal of the sea king's ability or the master of ancient weapons."

On the side, hearing Nagato's eloquent eloquence, neither Violet nor Neptune could say any more euphemistic and soft words to persuade Nagato, and even Neptune couldn't help but reflect in his heart whether he had been too passive all these years.

Shirahoshi, who was accepting Nagato's remarks head-on, lowered his head, his hair covered his face, and he couldn't see her expression at the moment.

There was a moment of silence in the room, just when Neptune was about to step forward to comfort her and Violet was about to offer some words of comfort, a childish yet determined voice sounded.

Bai Xing suddenly raised his head and said: "I... I want to become the master of the king of the sea, I want to help the father and the fish-man island, please help me, Lord Nagato!"

Bai Xing's sudden words undoubtedly surprised Neptune and Violet, and Neptune's eyes were even more gratified, and also revealed a kind of love and reluctance for his daughter to grow up and understand.

Unexpectedly, facing Shirahoshi's request, Nagato just replied indifferently: "I don't negotiate with immature people."

"Your Majesty!" This time Violet finally couldn't help but tinge of reproach in her tone.

But in just a short moment, Shirahoshi seemed to have grown to a level that they didn't expect, and she said word by word: "I will try my best to control my power well, and let myself help Nagato-sama as a reward for me." , please help me realize the dream that my mother and Murloc have always dreamed of, please help me, let Murloc and Mermaid live on the sunny land as equals with humans!"

"White Star……"

Neptune's eyes were hot, he turned his head away hastily, and finally couldn't help turning back, staring at the daughter in front of him, and said silently in his heart: Otohime, did you see, our daughter has grown up very well.

In the room, Neptune and Violet followed Shirahoshi waiting for Nagato's response at this moment, and Shirahoshi who made the speech just now, her ten fingers clasped on her chest could not help trembling slightly, but her eyes There are no more tears in the eyes, replaced by firm and hopeful eyes.

The three of them, who seemed to be waiting for a trial and also seemed to welcome the sun, finally heard the answer.

"Very good." Nagato affirmed, "I accept this proposal!"
