"That's the way it is. ”

Neptune smiled bitterly, looked at the phone bug that had drooped his head, and sighed slightly.

At this moment, he was sitting on the throne, but there were no fish-man guards guarding him, instead he was standing below, or Jinping, one of the original Seven Martial Seas, standing aside, far better than the dozen or so guards, if he didn't have a different heart, then he was the strongest guard on Fish-Man Island.

"Luffy's little brother......"

Jinping, who had been waiting on the side, obviously heard the whole content of the call, and thoughtfully, "If it's Luffy's little brother, he does have that magical power in his body, but it's ......"

Jinping's expression was solemn: "King, you are the king of a country, you need to consider carefully to make this kind of decision, although Brother Harut is the crew of Luffy's brother, and he may also be the general who guards the 'king', but this is a major matter related to the lives of the 5 million people of Fish-Man Island." ”

"Judging from what I know about Luffy's younger brother, he wouldn't say such a thing, which means that this should be Harut's personal opinion, but I didn't expect him to be the part of the people who are optimistic about the revolutionary army. ”

"However, judging from the current situation, the revolutionary army does have great potential, but this is not the time to bet, and Fish-Man Island can't afford to toss. ”

Jinping shook his head slightly.

Although it is good to send charcoal in the snow, they must also have the confidence to fail.

With a population of 5 million, Fish-Man Island is the main transportation route between New World and Paradise, and it stands to reason that they should have the potential to become a world power, if not a big country, but they should be in the top 20 economically.

However, the reality is Fish-Man Island, although it is not poor, but it is not much rich.

In fact, this is a big problem, with the appearance of the Fish-People and the Mermaids that are different from ordinary humans, the appearance becomes their biggest obstacle when communicating with other humans, to a large extent, they are all discriminated against, and they are discriminated against by conservatives.

The funny thing is that most of the aristocracy in the world who are in a position of domination are often conservatives, and it is difficult for them to accept that the fish people have the same status as them.

Theoretically, if you help the revolutionary army at this moment and let them achieve victory and dominance in the world, the fish-man is likely to increase its status and become a patriarch, so that it can indeed seek the status of a great power in the world.

But if it fails, the reputation of the fish-man will be completely stinky.

The times are moving forward, Fish-Man Island is the world government that joined 200 years ago, over the past few hundred years, Fish-Man Island has gone through many stumbling roads, little by little to achieve its current status, although it is not good, but it has not reached a very bad point, let the people of the country bet on the future to participate in this world battle that I don't know who will win, I'm afraid not many people will be willing.

After all, who would want to risk their lives before they reach a point of despair?

It's not an individual, it's a group of 5 million.

"Is this Harut's personal opinion?"

Neptune relaxed slightly.

As Harut said, today's Straw Hat Kid is no longer an ordinary pirate Straw Hat Kid, he has great political resources behind him, whether he wants it or not, this is an established fact.

On the admiralty side, his grandfather was Vice Admiral Karp, who was known as a naval hero.

Revolutionary military, he is the most vicious criminal in the world, the son of the revolutionary Dragon.

On the pirate side, he was recognized by the strongest pirate group in the world, the Whitebeard Pirates.

Not only that, but he also has the support of the former One Piece Vice Captain Hades Reilly! This means that he has the possibility of obtaining the network resources of the original One Piece! It also means that he is extremely close to One Piece!

Neptune didn't know about the Cherry Blossom Kingdom (formerly the Magnetic Drum Kingdom) and the Alabastan Kingdom, but with the above information, he already understood that the Straw Hat Boy had the capital to dominate the Great Passage for decades to come, as long as he didn't die.

Moreover, if you add to this the existence of the "will" of Fish-Man Island......

Neptune stroked his forehead again, how could he give him such a big trouble in one call.

"Ahem......"

Seeing that Neptune was worried, Jinping thought about it, covered his mouth with his right fist and coughed lightly twice, and only then did he say until he attracted Neptune's attention: "King, I don't think this kind of thing can be decided in a short period of time, presumably Harut also knows this, so he said that he asked you to see his captain Straw Hat Boy first, presumably this is to give you time to think, I think you are a little too early to worry about now." ”

"And ......"

He paused, "I think I probably understand what he means, he doesn't have to let us make a decision, but let us understand the direction of this world first, let us understand how to make a more correct choice in the tide of this world, and this choice should also be extremely beneficial to their Straw Hat Boy Pirates." ”

Jinping didn't blindly want Fish-Man Island to fall to the side of the Straw Hat Boy Pirates because of his personal friendship.

Friendship is friendship, and national affairs are national affairs, and the two cannot be confused.

Although he is very optimistic about Luffy, if Luffy's interests on Fish-Man Island conflict one day, it is estimated that he will stand in a hostile position with Luffy.

It's a real world.

The good news, though, is that this is not possible in most cases.

"Jinping, you're right. ”

After thinking about it, Neptune also nodded and said: "Fish-Man Island is in a remote corner, the news is closed, and the only one on our Fish-Man Island who is well-informed and has been in contact with various forces is only you, and your words do make some sense." ”

"And Harut doesn't know the real situation of our Fish-Man Island, even if we want to help the revolutionary army, we really can't help, after all, the incident more than ten years ago ......"

Neptune sighed, with a hint of grief in his expression, "Because of that, it is basically impossible for the people of this island to help humans fight for power, how can they allow the blood of the fishmen to be shed in the political struggle of mankind?"

Jinping was silent for a moment and sighed softly.

Yes, with that pimple, even if Fish-Man Island wants to go to the sea to live in a normal way, let alone gain political status through such a drastic way.

All this, Harut thought of was too ideal.
