Founding a Nation in One Piece World

After entering the light barrier of Fish-Man Island, the ship passed through an inland sea before reaching the sea inside Fish-Man Island.

However, after the boat arrived at the Pier of Fish-Man Island, there were a bunch of Murlocs waiting on the dock.

"What is this? Are you ready to start a fight as soon as you arrive?" Enel looked at the group of fish-mermen on the pier.

King saw that they did not have weapons in their hands and said: "That must be the case, right? If we really want to fight, wouldn't it be more convenient for them in the sea? It doesn't need to wait for us to enter the Fish-Man Island and it will be more convenient for us?"

"Is it possible that they are here to welcome us?" Zoro asked doubtfully.

"We don't know them."

"Not to mention how will they know when we are coming?"

"We'll find out when we get on board." Lihao sailed the boat to the dock.

After the boat docked smoothly on the pier, and after the group of them disembarked and walked on the pier, the leader here, King Neptune of Fishman Island, came forward with his people.

"Hello, Mr. Lihao! I am the king here." Neptune shouted directly to the King.

King: "……."

Is it because of my mighty appearance that you think I am the boss?

"I'm not, my name is King."

"This is the one." King waved his hand towards Li Hao.

"Oh! I'm sorry, Mr. Lihao." Neptune quickly explained to Lihao. "The look of Lord King makes me feel like he is the leader here."

Li Hao: "..."

You might as well not explain it. If you explain it, it feels like you are saying that I have no power.

"It's okay!" Li Hao waved his hand.

They came to greet the wrong person, which made Neptune a little embarrassed. In order to resolve the embarrassment, he directly told the reason why they came: "Daddy Whitebeard told me that you were coming and you needed me to take care of you, so I was in a hurry. I brought someone over to greet me.”

Although Neptune is about the same age as Whitebeard, he also calls him dad out of respect for Whitebeard.

In fact, to put it bluntly, because this place is under the sea, there is no news here, and it is difficult for newspapers to reach here. Therefore, the outside world either does not know about any major events, or only learns about it very late.

So Neptune didn't know who Lihao and his group were, so he could only say hello based on his own knowledge.

And after hearing what Neptune said, Lihao suddenly knew what was going on, and thought to himself: "It seems that he knew that I appeared."

Either the Shampoo Islands incident appeared in the newspapers, making Whitebeard aware of Lihao's existence, or the Whitebeard Pirates knew of his existence by investigating the beasts and Big Mom.

"How did you know when we arrived?" Zoro asked curiously.

"We mermaids can communicate with fish, so through the fish in the sea, we know the location of your ship." Neptune explained, and then said: "This is not the place to talk, everyone please move to Dragon Palace City .”

Then Lihao and his group took a giant flounder that was responsible for carrying foreign guests, and followed a group of mermaids like Neptune towards the Fish-Man Island Ryugu Castle. It should be said that they swam back in the air of the Fish-Man Island.

By attaching bubble wrap to the bodies of large fish, they can swim in the air of Fish-Man Island as if they were in water.

On the way, Lihao and the others also looked at the buildings on Mermaid Island.

Whatever there is on the seabed, then there are various types of buildings here, including various large shell buildings, various large coral buildings, various large conch buildings, various large rock formation buildings, in any case, various underwater buildings that are big enough to live in.

"There is too much malice towards humans here." Sitting Yixiao sensed that where the flounder was passing by, some mermaids looked at them in the air with ill intentions, and it was their first time here, so the malice was obvious. Not to them, but to their identity as humans.

"It's normal. The differences between humans and mermaid races will always lead to discrimination. In addition, some humans torture and abuse mermaids, which makes them hate humans even more."

"But the biggest instigator is right next to him." Lihao looked at Neptune who was leading the way, and next to him was Hody Jones, the Great White Shark who had become a guard.

"What on earth happened to make him have such great malice?" Yixiao also turned slightly to face this guy. Next to him, Yixiao sensed several times more malice than the mermaid below.

"Just an extreme fish-man." Lihao smiled faintly.

It's okay if this guy doesn't annoy them, but once he does, Lihao doesn't mind a slice of Jaws.

After the conversation between Lihao and Yixiao, the others also felt to some extent that the mermaid below was looking at them in a very unfriendly way.

After a while, they arrived at the high place on Fish-Man Island, where the royal family of Fish-Man Island lived in Dragon Palace City.

The group of them also followed Neptune, entered Dragon Palace City, and came to the banquet hall where guests were entertained.

And here, the princess of the fish-man country, Otohime, and others prepared various delicacies to wait for Rihao and the others' arrival.

Seeing this, Robin smiled and said: "Our treatment is quite high. The king welcomes us and the princess prepares the food."

"Without Father Whitebeard, Fish-Man Island would not be as peaceful as it is now. This is the first time in so many years that they told us about taking care of us. Of course we take it seriously." Otohime next to her responded with a smile after hearing Robin's words. road.

"But I hope you can forgive me. We mermaids don't eat fish, so we didn't prepare these for you."

Looking at the rich variety of seafood except fish on the table proved that the other party took them seriously, so Li Hao said: "It's okay, that's enough."

"Everyone, please take a seat!" Neptune waved his hand.

Then Lihao and his group found a seat and sat down, tasting the delicious food here.

However, after eating for a while, Otohime seemed to have a tangled expression as if she wanted to say something, but couldn't.

Neptune knew what she wanted to say, so he said it: "Everyone, I have a small matter and I want to ask you for help."

"Don't worry, it's a very small matter and will not affect your dining."

"Is it Princess Otohime who wants to tell us something?" Rihao looked at Otohime and saw her tangled look. Anyone with eyes here knew that she had something to say.

"Yes, she has an ideal..." Before Neptune could finish his words, Otohime interrupted him, "Let me tell you!"

"That's it, everyone..."

To put it bluntly, she wanted to get closer to and understand humans, and wanted to eliminate the discrimination and hatred between fishmen and mermaids against humans, so she initiated a signing event for the residents of Fishman Island to move to land.

In this way, she can gain the support of as many humans, fishmen, and mermaids as possible, and through this, more fishmen, mermaids, and humans can have friendly contact and understand each other, thereby changing the future of Fishman Island and achieving her ideal of fishmen and mermaids. A scene where mermaids and humans coexist peacefully.

Although Fish-Man Island is on the only way to the New World, many ships actually sail directly past Fish-Man Island. There are very few ships that can go to Fish-Man Island. As a result, Otohime rarely sees humans. As a result, she rarely sees humans. Get human signature support.

Now Lihao and the others happened to be here, so she wanted to get their signatures.

After listening to Otohime's explanation, King shook his head and said: "One signature and ten signatures, even if there are 1 and [-] signatures, what's the use?"

"It doesn't matter where you are. In fact, what matters is strength. If you have strength, you are guaranteed. If you are guaranteed, others will live in peace with you."

"If you have no strength and no guarantee, then it depends on the other party's mood. Once the other party is in a bad mood, you can throw away a signature like this at will. In the end, you will still be ravaged by the other party."

"This..." Otohime was directly shocked by King's words. She didn't expect King to be so straightforward, as if he was saying that her efforts were actually in vain.

"I have a deep understanding of what you are going through, but just a few signatures to get a group of people to understand each other peacefully is a daydream, and it will never work. If the other party is unhappy, your signature is no different from toilet paper." Aini. Lu said while holding a crab and eating it.

Yixiao also said while eating food: "Although I also agree with the idea of ​​​​peaceful coexistence of all ethnic groups, the premise is like what King said, strength is guarantee. Only with guarantee can we do more things. Without strength, there is no peace. Vulnerable.”

"This..." Otohime was hit again, twice.

However, Lihao asked: "If you really want the residents of Fishman Island to live on the sea and coexist peacefully with humans, why don't you find the Whitebeard Pirates?"

"Explain to them that the entire island can be moved directly to an island they occupy, and then slowly by contacting more people, more people will know your goodwill and understand you."

"There is no need to engage in this signing activity that seems to be in name only."

"This..." Otohime was immediately asked and didn't know what to say.
