One Piece: The Rise of the Murloc

Chapter 8 Consequences

Fishman Street is located in the most remote and darkest place on Fishman Island. .biqugev

Usually there is no entertainment at all here. Most of the fish-men living here are cruel and cruel, and the atmosphere is depressing and boring.

It's dark all year round.

So Li Xiang didn't know whether it was day or night.

A few hours passed after Li Xiang defeated Jiu and Xiaoba.

On the originally deserted streets, fish-men figures gradually appeared in twos and threes.

The closed storefronts on both sides of the street opened their tattered doors to welcome customers, revealing a light yellow halo of lights, driving away some darkness and giving this ghost-like place a little warmth.

Most of the fishmen walking on the road were wearing shabby clothes and pants, and you could tell at a glance that they were all poor people.

Three of them and two friends walked to the pub, arm in arm, ready to have a good time.

In the daily life of fish people, there is very little entertainment.

In normal times, coming to the tavern to order a bottle of rum and bragging and farting with a few friends were one of the few entertainments they had.

But today is different!

Li Xiang defeated Jiu and Xiaoba one on two!

This news was spreading rapidly in Fishman Street at the speed of a virus, immediately detonating public opinion.

Fishman Street, which originally seemed lifeless, became lively again because of Li Xiang's incident.

Inside the tavern.

Every moment you can see fish-men of different shapes drinking rum and bragging to the surrounding fish-men. You can see how Li Xiang defeated Jiu and Xiaoba.

From time to time, bursts of laughter could be heard from the crowd.

For ordinary fishmen like them, the evil dragon boss who rules this fishman street is an existence that they cannot compete with.

Not to mention, it is said that the evil dragon has been in contact with some officers of the Neptune Army in the Dragon Palace in recent years, and now he is very hopeful to join the Neptune Army!

If we say that in the past, the evil dragon boss was just the leader of a group of villains.

Once he joins the Neptune Army, he's a member of the military!

In a small place like Fishman Street, the evil dragon is a being that ordinary fishmen like them need to look up to!

But now.

The right-hand men of the evil dragon boss, Xiaoba and Jiu were both defeated by a previously unknown William, oh no, now he should be called Li Xiang, a great white shark!

Under this circumstance, the tavern owners in Fishman Street discovered that there were a lot of fishmen here today, and everyone was very excited!

Because they discovered that something big was going to happen recently!

In the entertainment-poor Fishman Street, this is simply a shot in the arm, how can you not be excited!

Li Xiang was wearing a black robe, covering his figure, sitting silently in the corner of a tavern called Rose and Wine.

This tavern is not big, with only twenty long tables, but although it is small, it is well-equipped and well-equipped.

Li Xiang took a sip of rum and smacked his lips.

He really couldn't arouse the slightest interest in this kind of wine that pirates loved so much.

The alcohol concentration of rum is not as good as that of liquor, and Li Xiang doesn't feel happy at all.

Putting down the bottle, Li Xiang listened to the bragging of the fishmen around him, twitched the corner of his mouth and murmured in a low voice:

"These murlocs are crazy. I just defeated Jiu and Xiaoba, so why should I be so excited?"

"Also, that dolphin man standing on the table and shouting loudly, how do you know that I can spit out flames from my mouth? It seems true, I almost believed it!"

"You are so good at making up stories. If you had become an online novelist, you might have become rich by now!"

Just when Li Xiang was shaking his head alone, the drinkers at each table were having a great time bragging and spanking.

A burly figure appeared at the door of the tavern.

This figure was very tall and walked into the tavern with his head lowered.

This is a cartilaginous fish man.

There were obvious fins on both elbows. He was wearing a dark blue robe with a belt tied in the middle. He walked in with bare feet.

After noticing who it was.

The originally bustling tavern suddenly became silent as if its throat had been cut.

Sensing something strange in the tavern, Li Xiang raised his head suddenly.

Looking at the dull eyes of the drunkards around him, he was suddenly stunned.

The fish-man who appeared here was none other than Croobie, one of the senior cadres of the evil dragon.

What surprised Li Xiang even more.

Croobie had an old face and serious black eyes and glared at the other fishmen, warning them not to cause trouble.

Then, without any hesitation, he walked straight towards Li Xiang.

When the drunkards around realized that Croobie did not blame himself for smearing Jiu and Xiaoba just now, they felt relieved.

But at the same time, a question came up.

Who asked Croobie to work so hard?

Out of curiosity and questions, the drunkards shifted their gazes.

When they saw Li Xiang's face that was more human and delicate under the black robe, they all gasped!

"It's him, William!"

"Yes, that's him, the great white shark who defeated Jiu and Xiaoba!"

"No wonder Croobie came to him."

Fishman Street is either big or small. People who live here are very familiar with it, so they naturally recognize the original owner of Li Xiang's body.

Seeing that he could not drink quietly, Li Xiang simply took off his black robe and said to the crowd:

"From now on, you don't want to call me William. You want to call me Li Xiang. Do you understand?"

"understood!"

In Fishman Street, where villains are everywhere, strong fists and strength are the best passports.

The drunkards around him are all thugs. Knowing that Li wants to defeat Xiaoba and Jiu alone, they will naturally give him face.

Seeing everyone changing their opinions, Li Xiang nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he looked at Croobie who was walking over.

It should be said that the genes of fishmen are very good.

This Croobie is actually a little taller than Li Xiang, and his muscles are very solid. Even if he is wearing a loose Taoist robe, he can still vaguely see it.

Li wanted to make a gesture to sit down and said:

"How did you know I was here?"

"I remember I was always very low-key."

Croobie had a serious face and showed no intention of sitting down.

His sharp eyes were focused on Li Xiang, and he snorted coldly:

"Here in Fishman Street, no one can escape the control of the evil dragon boss."

"It's so easy knowing you're here!"

"Oh?"

Li Xiang raised his eyebrows, secretly surprised by the evil dragon's control over Fishman Street.

However, he was not suppressed by Croobie's momentum. Instead, he smiled softly and said:

"Then why are you looking for me? Do you want to drink with me?"

"It just so happens that I'm in need of a companion here."
