Roy and the others walked into the royal palace on Fish-Man Island.

Needless to say, the special scenery inside is full of colors of the seabed, and the natural art is amazing.

Soon.

The group came to the throne.

Neptune's massive figure huddled on the throne, his expression calm, holding a huge trident, truly as majestic as the god of the sea.

To Roy's and the others' surprise, next to Neptune, there was a fishman who was quite petite compared to these royal members.

Of course, this petite is only to see who he compares to.

If you compare it to Roy, then this fish-man is a normal size, and even strong.

However, Roy was surprised not that this man could stand by King Neptune's side, but that this person was actually his old acquaintance.

Predecessor Seven Martial Seas, Sea Heroes, Jinping

"Sure enough, it's you."

Jinping looked directly at Roy with a complicated gaze: "Long time no see." ”

"Wait a minute, it's not King Neptune who wants to see us, it's you......"

Roy's face was strange.

Since Jinping is here, it can basically be concluded that the reason why their group was summoned by Neptune was entirely because of Jinping, not because of Barrett.

It's easy to understand.

Even if Barrett and Neptune met, they were barely old acquaintances, but they were old acquaintances who had not seen each other for more than twenty years.

Besides, all these years, Barrett has been locked up in Advance City!

It doesn't make sense that Barrett had just arrived on Fish-Man Island and hadn't had any contact with the people of Neptune, and Neptune knew where he was......

It's not the same yourself!

Jinping and himself are real old acquaintances.

Because of the grievances between himself and Jinping, most of Jinping's subordinates also know their appearance.

After all, Fish-Man Island is Jinping's hometown, and it is also a place that Jinping wants to protect.

It is not incomprehensible that he is here to be as good as the King of America.

"Not bad."

Jinping nodded, and then, when he saw the two people beside Roy, his face changed slightly.

"Barrett! Festa! ”

Jinping was inevitably a little nervous.

Needless to say, the former was his cellmate who was once imprisoned on the sixth floor of Advance City, and he was also a strongman in the cholera sea many years ago.

And the latter, as the founder of the Pirate World Expo, although his strength is average, there are few pirates who don't know him.

In other words, these two people are not small in this sea.

"Barrett?"

Neptune, who hadn't taken Roy and the others to heart, heard the name, and suddenly lowered his head and stared at the man standing straight in the direction of the door of the meeting room.

"It's really you ......"

Neptune's face changed, and his huge eyes had a complex look in them.

"Neptune, long time no see."

Barrett looked at the huge fishman in front of him, his face was calm, but there was a slight emotion in his eyes, and he was sighing that time had passed, and the sun and the moon had flown by.

"More than 20 years ......in the blink of an eye"

Neptune nodded.

Then.

The three princes who came by the doorway were shocked when they heard this conversation, and they raised their senses for Barrett even more.

What an old acquaintance!

Except for Shark Star, the remaining two princes were a little amazed.

They were too young to know what was going on. Growing up, I've never heard anyone talk about it, and my father has a connection with One Piece.

"Looks like we're going to have to talk about it."

Roy glanced at Barrett, walked over to Jinping in front of him, raised his eyebrows, and said, "You shouldn't be looking for me to fight, right?" ”

"Of course not, the grudge between us disappeared the moment you rescued Ace!" Jinping said in a deep voice, "I asked you to come to the palace to ask for your help. ”

After saying that, he knelt down on one knee with a "bang" and sought Roy's help in front of everyone, with a gesture that almost lost his dignity.

Not far away, Festa, who had been staring at this scene, was about to fall off his eyes.

Roy actually asked Haixia Jinping to kneel for him!

This Nima?!

He couldn't believe his eyes.

No matter how strong Roy is, it's not at the level of the Four Emperors, right?

That is Haixia Jinping, the former Seven Martial Seas, and the big man who can be ranked in the eyes of the Four Emperors.

Actually knelt for Roy!!

At the same time, Roy couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Jinping's movements.

Then he didn't give any answer, and his mind was thinking about it a thousand times.

As we all know, Fish-Man Island originally belonged to Whitebeard's territory, but after the battle at the top, Whitebeard died, and the Whitebeard Pirates were too busy to take care of themselves.

In the recent "Battle of the End", Whitebeard's remnants were defeated by the Blackbeard Pirates, and Blackbeard took Whitebeard's place and was recognized as the new Four Emperors.

At this point, Fish-Man Island has completely lost its guardians, and it has lost its greatest support.

Could it be that Jinping wants to replace Whitebeard and protect Fish-Man Island?

"Is it because of Fish-Man Island?"

Finally, Roy's question raised the doubts in the hearts of many people, including Festa.

But Neptune and the others didn't turn their attention over.

Obviously, long before Roy and the others arrived here, Jinping had already had a deep communication with them.

"Not bad."

Jinping stood up and said, "You should know that Fish-Man Island was originally protected by Daddy, which allowed Fish-Man Island to enjoy peace for a long time. But after the battle on the top, the Whitebeard Pirates were hit hard, and now they are destroyed in Blackbeard's hands, and Fish-Man Island has lost this tranquility. ”

"How can you be sure I can help you?" Roy asked.

"Of course you can help me." Jinping nodded, "Roy, you are now the most prominent figure under the Four Emperors. After killing the Three Calamities, I don't know how many people worship you madly, and some people even regard you as the Fifth Emperor! As long as you let it go, the troubles on Fish-Man Island will be much lessened. ”

"You shouldn't be the only one who has me, right?" Roy asked.

He knew it well.

In the original plot, after Whitebeard's death, it was the aunt who was also the Four Emperors who took over Whitebeard's guardian of Fish-Man Island.

"But you're the best option."

Jinping almost didn't think about it, cut it out categorically, and quickly gave an answer.

He doesn't seem to have much trust in the Four Emperors except Whitebeard.

To be honest, even if it is calculated according to the plot of the original time and space, if Jinping is really like following the Whitebeard Pirates, desperately following the aunt, how can he be abducted by Luffy and help Luffy plot against the aunt?

And Kaido likes to die, what Fish-Man Island needs most is quiet, and it's no good to follow such a boss!

Compared with Aunt and Kaido, the redhead is a non-managerial person.

Blackbeard is certainly even less likely to take over Fish-Man Island.

In this way, Roy is really a good choice.

Famous and powerful!

I have worked hard all the way, and my status is not bad!

"I've offended Kaido to death, so you're not afraid that Kaido will be angry with you?"

Roy was interested.

"The Four Emperors have the dignity of the Four Emperors, and they will not cross their identities and make a move on Fish-Man Island." Jinping looked at Roy and said seriously, "Besides, I trust you more than Kaido." ”

In other words, Jinping is going to take a gamble.

He bets that in the war between Roy and Kaido, the former will win.

"Excellent! I'm happy with your answer! ”

Roy laughed, he nodded and smiled, "I promised you!" You can use my name to suppress passers-by to and from Fish-Man Island, and I'll take care of any trouble for you! But again, since Fish-Man Island is under my protection, you must be at my disposal to a certain extent. ”

"And rightfully so." Jinping nodded.
