One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

Chapter 196 Fishman Island

Coldness, darkness, and loneliness are the main themes of this sea.

The difficult living environment and terrifying seawater pressure have resulted in very few creatures surviving in the deep sea. Those who can survive and adapt to the rules here are mostly giant sea kings with strong bodies.

In the quiet sea water, a slender figure broke into this restricted area of ​​life in an incredible state.

As the depth of the dive continued to increase, strong pressure came from all directions. The white clothes were squeezed close to the body, outlining his slightly bulging body, but it still could not shake the opponent's progress.

"Crash!"

After diving to about 8000 meters above the ground, two scarlet eyes like large lantern fish appeared behind An.

Along with it, there are more than a dozen huge tentacles, as well as clearly visible round suction cups on the tentacles, twisting crazily in the seawater, stirring the cold seawater, and bringing endless madness to the passing creatures.

"Boom!"

The huge soles of the feet stepped on the seabed made of soft sand, making violent noises. The surging seawater rolled up the sand and raised it, frightening away the sea creatures hiding in it.

"Get away from Kraken, this is my territory."

Behind the giant octopus Neptune, a figure of a red-finned multi-kiloman with a similar size appeared.

It has black beards, dense hair on its chest and abdomen, a big mouth, webbed hands, and inconspicuous fins on its back.

Waving his fist, he hit Kraken hard. The fish-man with sparse teeth vented his dissatisfied anger.

Feeling pain in his body, the giant octopus waved his huge tentacles and wrapped them around the bald sea monster, trying to completely twist the opponent's body.

As for why he is a bald sea monster, it is due to his relatively flat hair.

The tentacles that tore at his body with his backhand put the majestic-looking bald sea monster at a disadvantage for a moment.

"That's enough, stop it!"

“Buzz——!!!”

Seeing the two fighting parties blocking his way, An, whose head was aching, suddenly let out a low cry, and a terrifying momentum burst out and spread in the dark deep sea.

The dead sea water above his head began to boil, countless undercurrents surged, and a large number of overlord colors gathered into an invisible spiritual blade, ignoring the obstruction of the sea water, directly piercing Kraken's mind.

"|｀O′| Ouch~~"

Kraken, who had gained the upper hand in the fight just now, trembled all over, his huge eyes suddenly shrank, like needle-pointed wheat, and the movements of his hands also slowed down.

"Deterrence·Millions of bald heads!!"

Realizing that this was a good opportunity, the bald sea monster opened its mouth and sucked in fiercely, sucking out a large amount of air from the sea water. Its densely haired belly suddenly grew larger and pressed directly on Kraken's body.

It's like children fighting, letting the other party roar, just holding on to the other party's tentacles for life and death.

"Hey! Big guy, get up quickly and let it go."

With a bit of the anger of a child fighting, the bald sea monster punched Kraken and said in a child-like voice: "No, this guy has been bullying me before, I must teach him a lesson this time. "

After a while, Kraken, who was covered in bruises, moved all his tentacles and fled with scars.

"Thank you!"

The short arms could not reach the back of the head and could only be placed on the neck. Although the simpering bald sea monster did not know how the other party subdued Kraken, he did not forget the terrifying aura.

Waving his hand to indicate that you're welcome, An left the seabed and headed towards the deeper underwater canyon. From his sensory perception, the Fishman Island was in that direction.

Soon, as time passed, the appearance of Fish-Man Island gradually appeared in An's vision. …

Fishman Street.

As a place where Fish-Man Island originally housed orphans, it gradually became a symbol of violence and chaos due to improper management. After the original leader, Fisher Tiger, left, the place was occupied by "Hody Jones."

Although he hates humans in his heart, he suppresses his inner dissatisfaction and shows kindness to humans so that the descendants of Fishman Island can enjoy the sunshine on land, coexist peacefully with humans, and be accepted.

As Aaron's younger brother among the Sun Pirates who hates humans the most and is disgusted with Princess Otohime's ideas, Hody Jones is simply better than his predecessor when it comes to opposing and persecuting humans.

Not only will they capture passing pirates and come to Fishman Street to perform various inhumane tortures and abuses for their own pleasure, but they will also not do anything to innocent ordinary humans who come here to travel, or fishmen who want to make friends with humans. Let it go.

The sharp dagger in his hand was cut, and the fishman's throat was stepped on. Looking at the slowly flowing blood, Hody Jones stepped on the opponent's face, and looked at the younger brother beside him with a ferocious but not much fat face.

"Have you found the two pikes, Meen and Lady, and their accomplices?"

The sand snapper man on the side responded quickly: "Boss Huo Di, they seem to have gone to the Dragon Palace to find Jinbei and Neptune."

Crushing the fishman's head under his feet, Hody Jones smiled disdainfully, "Two outdated old guys actually want to take charge of Fishman Street again. It's simply wishful thinking. Send someone to tell King Vanderdeken IX that I Agree to his request and we will take action in two days."

"This time, with more than ten years of preparation, I will definitely be able to become the king of Fish-Man Island."

Sometimes we have to admit the arrogance of ignorant people. Leaving aside the Shichibukai Jinbei who is close to Ryugu, the Whitebeard Pirates who are located deep in the New World and protect Fish-Man Island will never allow such a thing to happen.

Fishman Island, Dragon Palace.

Located on the top floor of Fishman Island where the sun can be seen, it is a large luxurious palace built of large coral reefs, shells, and other building materials, with a giant dragon carved in stone.

The splendid Dragon Palace Hall was supported by only one solitary pillar. In front of the throne in the hall, at a large conference table, Neptune and Jinbei, as well as Mien and Leidy, who had just escaped from Fishman Street, gathered together. one class.

It's just that the scene at the conference table was not very harmonious. The light blue-skinned Mien looked at Jinbei with some contempt, obviously having a grudge against Jinbei for accepting the World Government's request and becoming a Shichibukai.

As the king of Fish-Man Island, Neptune welcomed the other party back very much, so he deliberately opened his mouth to resolve the awkward atmosphere.

"Mien, tell Jinbei the news you got from Fishman Street this time. He will come back to solve this matter."

Having had the painful experience of wandering outside, and not wanting his beloved Fish-Man Island to be destroyed, Mien temporarily suppressed his dissatisfaction and told the story of what he saw in Fish-Man Street.

"That guy Hody Jones has organized an army of nearly 100,000 people, and he has also prepared many weapons."

"One hundred thousand people?!"

As the king, Neptune was shocked. He knew that the guards of the Dragon Palace on Fish-Man Island were only 2 people, and the opponent was almost five times as many as his own!

"When did this guy start?"

Just when everyone was worried, a guard responsible for patrolling Fishman Island came to Neptune in a panic.

"Your Majesty, something happened at Geelong Court Square!"
