Chapter 372 Bai Xing's eyes sparkle like little stars, Lord Xi Yan is so amazing!
"I miss it so much..."
Looking at the buildings below, Shirahoshi's eyes began to flicker.
How long has it been since she last came downstairs?
"Speaking of which... you haven't seen these things for ten years, have you?" west Yan said.
"Yes, Lord Xiyan!"
Bai Xing first answered honestly, then said with a somewhat disappointed expression, "Ever since I was targeted by that guy Vander Deiken, I haven't been able to come out again."
Even... even his mother's funeral...
Thinking of this, tears began to well up in Bai Xing's eyes.
"Why are you crying again?" west Yan said helplessly.
"I'm sorry, I was just thinking about some sad things," Shirahoshi said, her head down.
After she finished speaking, she tried her best to cover her mouth, as if she didn't want her crying to disturb Xi Yan.
Looking down at Bai Xing, west Yan shook his head helplessly and said, "You don't have to be like this. Just cry if you want to."
Although he didn't know why Shirahoshi was crying, he thought it was best not to hold back tears when you feel like crying, as it's bad for your health.
Hearing west Yan's words, Bai Xing was silent for a moment, then she removed her hand from her mouth and began to sob softly.
west Yan sighed upon hearing this, then turned to look at the buildings below.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to this place, west Yan created several shadow clones.
"Leave it to us!"
The shadow clones, understanding what west Yan wanted to do, nodded and then transformed into fish-men.
After doing this, the clones jumped off Mecaro and rushed down to the river bend below.
"I'm so envious," Luffy said, staring at the clones receding into the distance below. "I wish I could use ninjutsu too."
"Let's not think about it for now," west Yan said, waving his hand.
If he could become a Six Paths level being, he might be able to distribute his chakra, but as it is now...
Forget it.
"All right."
Luffy didn't dwell on the matter too much; he simply let it go.
Then he said, "By the way, why did you create so many clones?"
"Of course we'll go and find out what happened," west Yan said. "You haven't forgotten what that seahorse mermaid said earlier, have you?"
"It's the Minister of the Right," Shirahoshi whispered, having stopped crying.
"Alright, Minister of the Right."
west Yan shrugged, not dwelling on the matter too much; after all, it was just a title.
"You mean... he suspects us of kidnapping the fish-men?"
"It's a mermaid!"
west Yan corrected, "That is indeed the matter."
"So I plan to send my clones down there to see if they can find any clues."
"Then it's up to you!" Luffy nodded.
He was at ease leaving this matter to west Yan.
This time, west Yan nodded and said nothing more.
"A clone..."
Bai Xing looked up and asked, "Is this also Lord Xi Yan's ninjutsu?"
She had only heard that Lord Xiyan knew ninjutsu, but she didn't know what kind of ninjutsu he knew.
"That's right, this is my ninjutsu," west Yan said with a smile.
"Amazing!" Shirahoshi exclaimed, her eyes sparkling.
"It's alright."
However... although west Yan said that, the corners of his mouth began to uncontrollably turn upwards.
It is obviously very useful.
Just then, Luffy noticed the situation below.
"Hey, Xiyan, are those Sanji and Chopper?!" Luffy said, pointing at the two figures on the beach.
Upon hearing Luffy's words, west Yan immediately looked down and then smiled, "That's right, it's them."
I never expected those two to run into Chopper and Sanji here. They're really... lucky!!
Thinking of this, west Yan lowered his head and patted Mecaro's body, saying, "Mecaro, go over there first."
Since we've run into them, there's no reason not to bring them along.
"shark!"
With tears streaming down his face, Mecaro nodded, then struggled to flick his tail, slowly flying towards Sanji.
"Hey, why are you laughing like that?" Luffy asked, looking at Mecaro with a puzzled expression. "Did you think of something funny?"
Mecaro: ? ? ?
Does this human have a problem with their eyes?
Is this a laugh?
That's crying!
How could anyone possibly laugh when such a huge person is stuffed into their mouth?
Xi Yan glanced at Luffy speechlessly; this guy could be really oblivious at times.
Oh... no, it's like this most of the time. Thinking of this, west Yan rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
Soon, thanks to Mecaro's efforts, the group successfully reached Sanji's airspace.
"Hey, Sanji!"
"Chopper!"
"Huh?"
Chopper was startled upon hearing Luffy and Xiyan's voices, then looked up at the sky in surprise and exclaimed, "It's you two!"
"Huh?"
"What's the deal with that pufferfish?"
Looking at the pufferfish covered in cold sweat, several question marks popped up above Chopper's head.
Why would Luffy and Xiyan ride this strange thing here to find them?
"Are these your partners?" Shirahoshi asked curiously, looking at the two people below. "A human male and... a tanuki!"
That's right, this tanuki is exactly the same as the one in the picture book!
"They're reindeer," west Yan corrected helplessly, then laughed, "That's right, these two are our partners."
"reindeer?"
Several question marks popped up above Shirahoshi's head. How come she remembered that reindeer didn't look like this?
Did she remember it wrong?
After recalling the animal picture books her father had given her, a look of doubt suddenly appeared in Shirahoshi's eyes.
Wait a minute, she didn't misremember.
Reindeer don't look like that.
As if understanding Shirahoshi's thoughts, Xiyan explained, "Chopper is a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user, specifically the Human-Human Fruit, so he looks a bit different from a normal reindeer."
"Oh, I see."
Shirahoshi suddenly had a look of realization. No wonder the other party didn't look like a reindeer; it turned out that it had eaten the legendary Devil Fruit!
"Yes, that's right." west Yan nodded.
After speaking, west Yan turned his gaze down again.
But this time he realized something was wrong.
"Is that... Hachiko lying on the ground?"
Upon discovering it was Xiao Ba, west Yan's expression immediately changed.
"Hey Luffy, Hachi looks like he's injured!"
"What?"
Upon hearing west Yan's words, Luffy was stunned for a moment, then asked anxiously, "Where is he?"
"That's him lying on the reef."
"Quick, let's go down and check on him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy grabbed west Yan's body and jumped off Mecaro, saying, "We'll go down first, you guys hurry up and catch up!"
"shark!"
Upon hearing Luffy's words, Mekaro nodded with difficulty, and then slowly moved downwards.
Xi Yan gave a helpless look and said, "I knew this would happen..."
If it weren't for his immense strength and immortality, he would have been killed by this guy sooner or later!
The next moment—
"boom!!"
Luffy, who landed steadily on the ground, grabbed Xiyan and rushed towards Sanji, shouting at the fish-men blocking his way, "Make way! Make way!"
"This guy is the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Straw Hat Luffy!"
"It was him..."
Upon hearing who it was, the fish-men were immediately frightened and took several steps back.
Luffy ignored the reactions of these people and quickly came to Hachi's side with Xiyan.
After putting Xiyan down, Luffy squatted down next to Hachi and said, "It really is Hachi..."
"Hey, Chopper, how did he end up like this?"
Why did you suffer such a serious injury?
"I don't know either."
Chopper shook his head and said, "When I saw him, he only said a few words before passing out."
As for how the other party was injured, he didn't know.
Hearing Chopper's words, west Yan, who was brushing dust off his pants, looked up and asked, "What did he say?"
He said Hody was about to attack the island, so we should get off the island immediately.
"Hody?"
Several question marks immediately popped up above west Yan's head: Who is this guy?
Is it that supernova from this year's competition?
But that doesn't make sense. Isn't this year's supernova named something like Caribou?
So who is this Hody?
"Could it be... a great pirate from the New World?" west Yan thought to himself.
Do they want to seize Fishman Island for themselves as a way to declare war on the Big Mom Pirates?
It's not impossible.
Thinking of this, west Yan fell into deep thought.
"Who is that?" Luffy asked curiously.
"I don't know."
Chopper shook his head; he didn't know who this so-called Hody was either.
"Never mind, it's not important." Luffy looked down at Hachi and asked, "Is he alright now?"
The most urgent thing is to give Hachi a proper treatment. As for that Hody... if he dares to lay a hand on the Straw Hat Pirates, we'll just beat him to a pulp!
"It's safe for now," Chopper said. "But it's best to find a quiet place to rest for a while."
Xiao Ba's injuries this time were too severe, so it would be better for him to rest and recuperate for a while.
"So you need to rest for a while..."
Luffy thought for a moment, then looked up at Mecaro and said, "Let's take Hachi away from here first."
Then we'll find a place where Xiao Ba can rest and recuperate.
"it is good."
Chopper nodded; he had a similar thought.
"What's going on with this straw hat kid?" the surrounding fish-men asked, gathering together. "Didn't he already take over Ryugu Castle? Why is he coming down here again?"
"They are a gang that specializes in kidnapping mermaids, so it's normal for the captain to come down and arrest them himself."
"Leaving the crew in Ryugu Castle... what a despicable fellow!"
"They're probably trying to find the Little Mermaid, after all... she's the most beautiful woman on Fishman Island!"
"That's true, but there's absolutely no way they can find the mermaid princess," a fish-man said, shaking his head.
How could a group of pirates possibly find that person who has been hidden by His Majesty the King for ten years?
As for whether anyone in Dragon Palace will offer to lead the way... don't be ridiculous, the royal army would never do such a thing!
Just then, Mecaro fell from the sky, and his speed increased rapidly!
Seeing this, the fish-men asked in surprise, "What's going on with this shark?"
"I remember this guy is the mermaid princess's pet, so why is he here all alone?"
Could it be that they've come out to find the three princes?
It's not impossible.
Before they could say anything more, they noticed that Mecaro's body began to struggle violently, as if he were enduring some unimaginable pain.
The next moment, "BOOM!!"
"puff!"
Mecaro, who had fallen to the ground, spat the white star out of his mouth.
"Huh?!"
"Eh!!!"
The fish-men were so shocked by the sight of the giant mermaid princess sitting on the ground that their eyes bulged out.
"Princess Shirahoshi?!"
Why is their mermaid princess here?
ah?!!
"This...that..."
Seeing the expressions on the faces of the fish-men, Shirahoshi gave an awkward smile and said, "We've...we've been discovered..."
"Is that the point?!"
Isn't the point about why the mermaid princess is here?
No... their mermaid princess has been kidnapped!!
Upon realizing this, everyone immediately exclaimed in surprise.
As if startled, tears welled up in Shirahoshi's eyes, and she cried out, "I'm sorry... Lord Luffy, Lord... Brother, I didn't mean to."
"Damn it, I actually made Princess Shirahoshi cry..."
"You despicable pirates, you're so evil!"
Having observed everyone's reactions, west Yan wore a helpless expression and said, "This misunderstanding is really getting bigger and bigger..."
However, he wasn't angry about it, after all... from the perspective of the fish-men, Princess Shirahoshi really did seem to have been kidnapped by the two of them.
Thinking of this, west Yan sighed helplessly.
"Is this the Little Mermaid?"
Chopper looked at Shirahoshi in surprise and said, "Wow, it's really big!"
He doesn't know if it looks good or not, but it's really big!
"Your Highness?"
Hearing the voices behind him, Sanji, who was studying Hachi's condition, froze, then stammered, "Could it be...could it be..."
Could it be!!!
As he spoke, Sanji turned around to take one last look at the being of his dreams.
"don't want!"
Chopper immediately rushed over and grabbed Sanji's leg, saying, "Please, Sanji, please don't turn around."
"I'll die, I really will die!"
If an ordinary mermaid can make Sanji's nose bleed, then... this mermaid princess, hailed as the most beautiful woman on Fishman Island, could definitely kill Sanji!
"Chopper, is that really the legendary mermaid princess behind me?" Sanji asked, trembling. "Does this mean I'll see the most beautiful woman on Fishman Island if I turn around?!"
As he spoke, Sanji lit a cigarette, his body trembling, his expression looking as if he were about to die.
"That's right, that's it." Chopper, who had released Sanji and was now in front of him, said anxiously, "But Sanji..."
You will die!
"Sanji, I think you should listen to Chopper's opinion," west Yan said. "Because... this mermaid princess is really beautiful."
Sanji was stunned when he heard Xiyan's words.
Even west Yan, who has the world's most beautiful woman, said such a thing. How beautiful must the Little Mermaid be?
With that thought in mind, Sanji's eyes immediately hardened.
"You two, stop trying to persuade me!" Sanji exhaled a smoke ring and said, "To achieve my dream, I'd rather die!"
"Huh?"
"Isn't your dream all blue?!" Chopper exclaimed, dumbfounded.
No... now is not the time to dwell on such things!
Seeing Sanji about to turn around, Chopper immediately rushed forward, intending to forcibly pin him down.
But unfortunately... Sanji is even faster!
Sanji: !!!
"This...this is!!!"
Sanji was stunned when he saw the girl with tears welling up in her eyes.
"I..
How impoverished my imagination is...
"How beautiful this is!"
"This...this!!!"
"Click"
"Huh?!"
Chopper was dumbfounded when he saw Sanji suddenly turn to stone.
"Petrified?!"
How did you do that?
Xi Yan looked surprised and said, "Could it be that she's here?"
As he spoke, west Yan glanced around but did not see Hancock nearby.
This puzzled west Yan.
"If it wasn't Hancock who did it... then how did Sanji turn to stone?"
After glancing at the motionless idiot, west Yan was immediately rendered speechless.
"I don't know what happened, but at least I'm not getting a nosebleed anymore," Chopper said with a sigh of relief.
I just don't know if it's because of those two transvestites.
"Can it be cured?" west Yan asked, pointing at Sanji.
If Sanji is left like this, he'll probably die eventually.
"This is a new symptom, and I'm not sure how to treat it," Chopper said, sounding a bit troubled. "So... let's observe it for a while first."
Maybe Sanji will recover on his own after a while.
"All right."
Seeing that Chopper had said that, west Yan didn't say anything more.
Then, west Yan addressed the fish-men who were slowly approaching them, asking, "What are you planning to do?"
"Of course, we'll arrest you evil pirates!" a shark-fish man roared angrily. "How dare you kidnap the mermaid princess... we won't let you get away with this!"
"That's right, catch them!"
"profound!"
The merfolk roared and then walked towards the crowd, carrying brooms and other implements.
"Please don't do this, everyone," Bai Xing said anxiously. "I came out with them of my own accord, it's not their fault."
"Those despicable pirates, how dare they threaten Her Highness the Princess with such words..."
"We will not let you get away with this!"
west Yan:
Why can't these people understand what I'm saying?
Or are they just a bunch of stubborn idiots?
Thinking about this gave west Yan a headache.
"What should we do?" Chopper asked.
Although he wouldn't mind beating those fishman soldiers to a pulp, he simply couldn't bring himself to do it to these fishman island citizens wielding brooms.
"Of course we left," west Yan said. "We can't just kill them all, can we?"
Ultimately, they were just a group of ordinary people who didn't know the truth, and it was indeed difficult to just kill them all.
So let's go.
"Let's go then."
Luffy nodded, then glanced at Mecaro and said, "Hey, shark, get ready, we're off right now!"
Mecaro, who was still shedding tears, nodded with difficulty upon hearing this, and then began to move his body, clearly intending to lead everyone away from there.
Just then, a huge thing flew in from the sky.
"Um?"
As if sensing something, west Yan and Luffy simultaneously looked up at the sky.
"Here we go again?" Luffy said, frowning.
"It seems so."
west Yan nodded, then walked to Bai Xing's side, looked up at the huge weapon getting closer and closer in the sky, and said, "Leave it to me."
"Hey, what are you two pirates talking about?"
"Now we're going to arrest you, so get serious!"
"Shut up, all of you!"
west Yan glanced at the chattering group of fish-men and said, "Can't you see something flying towards Bai Xing?!"
The fish-men, startled by west Yan's roar, paused for a moment before shouting angrily, "Damn pirates! How dare they yell at us!"
Before I could finish speaking, a female mermaid voice interrupted me: "No, something is really flying over from the sky!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then looked up at the sky.
Just then, the enormous axe came hurtling down from the sky.
"It really exists!!!"
"It was that bastard Vander Deikun's attack!"
As if sensing the threat of death, Shirahoshi trembled and said, "Big...Big Brother!"
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, west Yan vanished from his spot.
When it reappeared, it was already above the white star.
"Get out of here!!"
"bump!"
"boom!!"
The fist, brimming with domineering power, slammed into the axe blade, shattering it into pieces!
Then, like bullets, the axe fragments shot into the nearby sea in the blink of an eye.
"puff!"
"puff!"
"puff!"
"Okay, that's all..."
"ah!!!"
"Ouch!!"
west Yan: ? ? ?
Upon hearing the scream, west Yan was immediately filled with questions. Where did the scream come from?
He specifically aimed for the open sea where there were no people.
Just as west Yan was wondering, a colossal creature emerged from the sea, roaring angrily, "Who is it?!"
"Who hit me?!"
He was hiding in the ocean, so why was he still attacked?
Turning her head to look at the wound on her buttocks, Mianjin was furious.
"It's that guy we saw in the ocean!" Chopper exclaimed in surprise. "I remember Usopp calling him the bald sea monster!"
So this guy also lives on Fishman Island?
"Is that you guys?!"
Looking down at Luffy and his crew, Watatsumi said angrily, "How dare you hit me..."
I will not let you get away with this!
"Oh no, it's Poseidon!"
Seeing the enormous fist that Watatsumi raised, the fish-men below screamed in fright.
They can handle the pirates, but they're no match for a sea god of this enormous size!
Luffy was furious when he saw this.
"What are you going to do to my friends?!"
"Second gear!"
Upon discovering Watatsumi's intention, Luffy immediately entered Gear Second and then disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Watatsumi.
"Um?"
When Watatsumi glanced at Luffy, who had appeared in front of him, he was stunned. Why did this human dare to charge at him directly?
Isn't he afraid of dying?
Although he didn't know what was going on, Watatsumi ultimately decided to throw a punch, intending to take down Luffy as well.
Unfortunately... Luffy is faster than him!
"Rubber Jet Pistol!"
"bump!"
An incredibly heavy fist slammed into Watatsumi's face, forcefully lifting his body and sending him plummeting into the sea behind him.
"boom!!"
Then, the enormous creature with its broken teeth began to churn in the ocean.
"ah!!"
"My front tooth!"
"Ouch, that hurts!"
"He actually sent Poseidon flying with a single blow..." The surrounding fish-men swallowed hard and said, "Is this the Straw Hat Luffy's strength?"
They actually intended to attack someone like that... they were really overestimating themselves.
"Is Lord Luffy really that strong?" Shirahoshi exclaimed in surprise as she looked at Luffy.
"Of course," west Yan laughed, "This guy is quite strong too."
Luffy, who trained with Rayleigh for so long, is definitely very strong!
"Hey, how's Sanji doing?" Luffy asked as he ran back.
"Um?"
west Yan was stunned for a moment when he heard Luffy's words, and then noticed that Sanji beside them had returned to normal.
"The stone has dissolved..." west Yan stroked his chin and said, "It's quite a surprising change."
Could it be that Sanji actually possesses some kind of strange or special bloodline?
After recalling the scene where Sanji set his own leg on fire in the seawater, west Yan fell into deep thought.
That's quite a possibility.
"I don't know what happened to Sanji, but at least he's out of danger," Chopper said to Luffy. "And... he seems pretty happy right now."
Chopper glanced at Sanji, whose body was occasionally twisting, and a bead of cold sweat trickled down his face.
"My dream has come true..." Sanji said with a happy expression, "Even if I die now, it will be worth it."
"So... shouldn't your dream be ALLBLUE...?" Chopper retorted.
Can this dream really change?
west Yan covered his face, not knowing what to say.
"Alright, let's get out of here quickly." Luffy reached out and picked up all the people on the ground, then led everyone behind Mecaro.
At this moment, Shirahoshi grabbed Mecaro's mouth to pin herself to his back.
Seeing this, Luffy nodded in satisfaction, then waved his hand and said, "Shark, it's time to set off!"
"shark!"
Mecaro, whose mouth was grabbed by Shirahoshi, nodded, then flicked his tail and flew up, quickly heading towards the distant sky.
Looking down at Mecaro, who seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, west Yan smiled and said, "That's much more comfortable, isn't it?"
"Shark, yes, this position is definitely much more comfortable."
Most importantly, this posture allows for the fastest possible swimming speed!
With that thought in mind, Mecaro quickened his pace and soon left the area.
"Princess Shirahoshi has left..."
The merfolk who watched these people leave all gaped, speechless for a moment.
Why would their mermaid princess agree to go with these pirates?
Aren't they the criminals who kidnapped the mermaid girl?
Upon hearing their words, Watatsumi immediately looked surprised and asked, "Was that the mermaid princess who just left here?"
He imagined that he would meet the mermaid princess that Captain Daken had been longing for here.
Just then, they heard a man scream.
"ah!!!"
"You despicable human woman, I will never forgive you!!"
"boom!!"
The next moment, the screaming man plunged headfirst into the sea next to Watatsumi, blasting a huge crater into the surface of the sea!
"Huh?!"
"Captain Daken?"
Seeing the familiar figure underwater, Mianjin was dumbfounded.
Why did Captain Deakin fall from the sky?
Vander Deiken: ? ? ?
Seeing the unmoved Watatsumi, Vander Deikun immediately yelled, "Idiot, come and save me!"
Although he, being a fish-man, wouldn't drown from the sea, the feeling of being completely powerless was just as unpleasant!
"Oh, I've arrived, Captain Daken."
Upon receiving the order, Watatsumi nodded, then bent down and pulled the sinking Vander Deiken from the seawater.
"Phew...that feels good..."
Once back on the surface of the sea, Vander Deiken immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It's definitely most comfortable when you're not in contact with seawater.
Then, Vander Deikun turned to Watatsumi and yelled, "You idiot, why didn't you catch me?"
"I didn't see you..." Watatsumi said, looking aggrieved.
He didn't even notice Captain Deacon jumping out of the air.
Van der Deiken, displeased, said, "Then next time you'd better pay more attention to your surroundings."
"Understood, Captain Deacon..."
After saying that, Watatsumi looked up at the sky and asked, "Captain Daken, why did you jump down from the sky?"
"It's because of those human women, of course!"
Van der Deiken gets angry whenever this is mentioned.
"I originally came out to find Princess Shirahoshi, but I encountered several humans blocking my way in mid-air."
"But before I could even make a move against them, they attacked me with some strange white thing..."
Recalling the image of himself falling off Coral Lake because of his negativity, Vander Deikun turned red with anger.
This is so embarrassing!
"So that's how it is..."
Watatsumi nodded, then, as if remembering something, said, "Oh, right, Captain Deacon, I just saw the Little Mermaid."
"What?!"
Upon hearing the words "Mermaid Princess," Vander Deikun immediately perked up.
Then, he excitedly looked at Watatsumi and asked, "Where is it?"
"She ran off with a human male."
Vander Deiken:
Upon hearing what Watatsumi said, Vander Deiken was completely petrified.
A moment later, Vander Deikun knelt on the ground and said, "Is this your answer, Shirahoshi..."
As if he had just realized something, his body began to tremble violently.
"Captain Daken?"
Watatsumi looked at Vander Deiken with a puzzled expression, wondering what was wrong with him.
"hateful!"
Vander Deiken abruptly raised his head and said angrily, "I waited for her for ten years, and this is how she answers me."
"She deserves to die!"
At that moment, a thought arose in Vander Deiken's mind.
That is... we must kill Shirahoshi and those damned humans!
