One Piece: The Glory of the Murloc

"Uhhhhh!! Yes, I'm sorry!!"

Screams were heard from inside the tavern, so shrill that it could make one's skin crawl all over. A certain man lay on the ground, wailing in pain.

Tears and snot poured out together, turning his face, which was twisted in pain, into a blur, looking as ferocious as a tortured evil ghost in hell.

Brett stood beside this man with a calm expression.

He raised his foot and stepped on the man's left leg.

The man's left leg was already a puddle of meat from the knee down, and the bones were broken into pieces. Brett's foot stepped on the knee.

The strong bones could not provide any defensive effect and instantly shattered into dregs.

"Ahhhhhh!!"

The man's screams filled the sky again.

The other people in the tavern were silent at this time. Don't move, they all lowered their heads and didn't even dare to look here.

They recognized Bright, so they didn't dare to move.

It’s not like the man’s partner didn’t try to resist, but their necks were broken in an instant.

Only the last man, their leader, who was boasting triumphantly just now, has now had his limbs trampled off. He no longer has any courage to brag, and can only keep wailing miserably.

"Please, please, forgive, forgive me——"

The man's consciousness was blurred by excessive blood loss, and he was just mumbling to himself.

"Mr. Bright, you're ready!"

Outside the door, a man leaned half in.

Bright nodded, hooked his foot around the man's neck, and then kicked the man out of the tavern with a flick.

Brett walked out slowly.

Outside the door of the tavern, at the intersection of the two roads, a tall wooden pole was now erected, with a rope noose hanging down from the pole.

A man stood aside with a smile on his face.

He was a friend of Donald's and it was thanks to his help that he found these guys.

Brett picked up the noose.

The man who fell to the ground was still somewhat conscious, "No, no, don't..."

His voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible, and he tried hard to squirm away from Bright.

But Brett just flicked it casually, and the noose was already covering the man's head, and then successfully pulled it around his neck.

"no no--"

The man turned around with difficulty, "Yuan, forgive me——"

"Who is qualified to forgive a guy like you?"

Brett calmly pulled another rope hanging from the wooden pole, "You have no choice but to die."

The man was hoisted up, very high, to the top of the wooden pole.

At first he was still struggling, but soon he only twitched slightly, and finally fell silent.

The street was clean and there were no people around, but many people were hiding behind the windows in the houses and watching in horror.

Brett tied the rope carefully.

Then he turned back, "If there are still people who want to take action against mermaids or fishmen, just be prepared for me to appear in front of you."

Still very quiet.

Then, Brett walked away.

Many years later, perhaps people here will still remember that figure.

Remember the fear that figure brought them.

For several hours after that, the street was very quiet.

On the way to Donald's company, Brett was thinking, is such a warning useful?

The conclusion reached is very depressing and probably of little use.

As long as the benefits are sufficient, for some people, life is something that can be left behind.

But Bright felt that even if it only had a small effect, his action would be valuable.

Donald's company is located in the business district of the Shampoo Islands, not far from where Bright is at this time. It is a five-story building that is not very impressive.

With Donald's friend leading the way, there was no obstacle along the way. When he reached the top floor, he heard crying as soon as he opened the door.

Brett followed the sound and looked over. On the long sofa, four little mermaids were sitting in a row and crying, eating marshmallows while crying.

On the single sofa on the other side, Rayleigh was drinking by himself with a bottle of wine.

Only Donald was anxiously trying to appease the little fish people.

"Mr. Bright, you are finally back!"

Seeing Brett coming back, Donald was like seeing a savior. He immediately rushed over, "You and Mr. Reilly should have a lot to say, right? I won't disturb you!"

As if there was a dog chasing him from behind, he ran away with his friend arm in arm.

"Oh? Already done?"

Reilly pushed up his glasses.

Brett nodded.

He walked up to the sobbing little mermaids and squatted down, "Do you know me?"

The oldest little mermaid looked at Bright with twitching shoulders, and then his eyes lit up, "Are you Brother Bright?"

"That's Brother Brett that Nana said, right? I've seen you!"

It turns out he is little Nana’s friend.

Brett smiled and said, "It's me, I'm here to take you home, so don't cry."

"Wow! I miss mommy!!"

The youngest girl cried louder.

Brett picked her up carefully and patted her back gently, "Okay, okay, I'll take you back to see your parents later."

"Really?"

Another little girl raised her head and asked with tears in her eyes.

"Um."

Brett nodded.

"Wow!"

This time I cried even louder.

Brett felt like his head was spinning. After leaving the Naval Science Corps, he had never felt as helpless as he did now.

"Hahahaha, that's what children are like."

Lei Li laughed loudly, "Brother, come on."

Drink your wine.

Brett could only comfort him for a while.

The children's emotions finally stabilized.

"it's all my fault,"

Nana's friend blamed herself, "I was the one who told me to come to the sea to have a look."

"It doesn't matter, the matter is over."

Brett rubbed her little head and said, "Just don't do this again."

"Never come to the sea again!"

A younger child sobbed, "Human beings, good and bad."

Brett heard Raleigh sigh.

While comforting the children, Brett was also thinking about what to do if something like this happens again in the future.

Fortunately, adults have basic discernment skills.

But children are different.

It's time to think of a solution.

It is best to be able to restrain children's actions and teach them something.

Ah, isn't that a school?

Brett nodded silently.

good idea.

The reason why these children are so idle is because they have no homework.

After crying for a while, the children became tired and fell asleep one by one.

Brett was finally able to talk to Reilly.

"I'm so sorry, little brother, for letting the children experience the ugliness of the world in advance."

Rayleigh sighed, "But believe me, there are more than just people like that among humans."

"I see."

Bright nodded, "However, the group of people who stand at the top of human society happen to be just such people."

"Dragon people?" Rayleigh nodded, "What they said is indeed true."

With supreme power and status without any restrictions, how can such a group not degenerate after eight hundred years?

To be able to continue to produce Celestial Dragons like Wulaoxing is probably the last sign of stubbornness.

"So Mr. Reilly, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Brett was curious.

In the original work, Rayleigh ganged up with the Straw Hats because the Straw Hats wore Roger's straw hats and were the ones the red hair said inherited Roger's will.

Why did he attract Rayleigh's attention?

"Brother Brett, what do you think of the future?"

Rayleigh smiled and said, "The future of Fish-Man Island?"

Overlord color is the qualification of a king that only one among millions of people can have. This boy, there is no doubt that he is the one who will lead the Fish-Man Island forward in the future.

And Fish-Man Island is one of the most important parts of the blueprint for changing the world.

How could you not want to have a good chat with such a junior when you meet him?

"The future?"

Brett was slightly startled. It would be nice to chat. He really felt something deeply today. “At the beginning, I thought that all I needed to do was live a peaceful and contented life. But then I found that if I didn’t do something, I would feel uneasy. Then I I think that as long as he becomes as powerful as Kaido the Whitebeard, Fish-Man Island will be able to survive safely."

"But, no," he said, "it just won't work. It's not enough for us to change. As long as we can't completely change the whole world's view of fish-men and mermaids, Fish-Man Island will never be truly safe."

Bright could even imagine that as he became very strong, it became very difficult to abduct mermaids, so more nobles were proud to own mermaid slaves, and perhaps the price of mermaids would further increase.

Unless the class that likes to turn others into slaves is eradicated, and the world government that is indifferent to or even supports this situation is destroyed, Fish-Man Island will not be truly stable.

This is what Bright had in mind today after stepping out of the smoke of the human trafficking den.

"Is that so?"

Riley nodded gently and leaned lazily on the sofa, "Brother Bright, you have great ambitions."

No wonder the overlord color is awakened.

He will be an important force in changing the world.

"Then come on, Brett," Riley said with a smile, "Although the road ahead is difficult, you shouldn't be alone."

If such a man leads Fish-Man Island and Neptune, there should be no problem.

Brett smiled and said, "I thought Mr. Reilly would say it was a very good dream, so he was willing to help me with it?"

"Hahahaha, how is that possible? I am a pirate and I have retired. What happens to the world has nothing to do with me." Reilly laughed.

Yes, this is not a kind and kind old man.

"I'm a little embarrassed, but can you give me some advice? Mr. Reilly."

Bright said seriously, "I suddenly awakened my overlord color, but I don't know how to use this power at all."

Although it is not as good as Mr. Kaido's stick education in terms of breaking bottlenecks in assault training, there is no doubt that Mr. Rayleigh's strength is in laying the foundation.

If you want to become stronger in domineering, getting the guidance of these seniors is far more useful than practicing on your own.

"Brother, you are so rude."

Reilly shook the bottle, but the smile on his face did not disappear because of this, "Well, if you can come to my door with some wine in my free time, it's not that I can't give you some guidance."

Not just because of the role he will play in the next changes, but just because of his action of freeing the slaves just now, you know that this man is not ordinary.

"Many thanks."

Brett was serious.

Although I'm just talking about giving guidance on overlord sex now, you can also ask about some knowledge points about armed sex in your spare time, right?

Flowing outward and destroying within, Bright wants to bring this knowledge back to Fish-Man Island.

Well, Mr. Leili should not be able to foresee the future. I will go to Mr. Ka or Mr. Kai to learn from this knowledge in the future.
