"Wait, where are you taking him?"

Princess Otohime looked at Lafitte, who was about to take the Draconians away, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, she didn't hear what Rhodes said to Lafitte, because Rhodes used a voice distortion that only Raffitt could hear.

"Take him where he needs to go."

Rhodes turned his head to look at Otohime, smiled gently, and said, "This is not the place to talk, if you can, can you take me to Ryugu Castle?" ”

Otohime already knew about the Draconians shooting at her before, and guessed that it was Rhodes who saved her, and when she heard Rhodes' words, she glanced at the many fishmen gathered next to her, and finally nodded slowly.

And at this time, Jinping finally remembered the identity of Rhodes, with a look of surprise in his eyes, staring at Rhodes and saying: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, he is the captain of the Ghost Hand Pirates, Ghost Hand Rhodes!" ”

The information that Rhodes had killed the Draconians and the Admiral of the Fierce War had not yet reached Fish-Man Island, and his impression of Rhodes was still stuck on the pirates who offered a bounty of 440 million Bailey.

But even the pirates who offered a bounty of 440 million Bailey were incredible characters.

The sand crocodile, which is also one of the Seven Martial Seas, died at the hands of Rhodes.

"I already know."

Otohime nodded slowly, she thought of Rhodes' identity faster than Jinping, but she didn't break it, on the one hand, she didn't discriminate against pirates, and on the other hand, Rhodes had just stopped a shot from the Draconians for her.

Jinping also knew that this was not the place to speak, although he knew that Rhodes was a dangerous person, but no matter what, there could be no more conflicts here, otherwise, so many people, even the princess was here, he would not have the confidence to protect so many people under Rhodes.

"Everyone disperse, the matter of the Tianlong people will end here, and no one should spread the word."

Jinping stared at Rhodes for a while, took a deep breath, and spoke to the many fishmen and merfolk nearby, his prestige was still very high among the mermaids, and the nearby merfolk and merfolk nodded one after another.

However, Rhodes, just in case, still asked Lafitte to apply another hypnotic effect on the people here, making them forget what happened before.

Only a few people, such as Jinping and Otohime, were not affected by hypnosis.

"Hurry up and treat Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

The medical team of the guards also quickly walked over, put Otohime on a stretcher, and quickly treated the wound on her shoulder.

At this time, the princes and princesses such as the White Star Shark Star also ran over, surrounded by the medical team, and headed in the direction of Dragon Palace City.

"Shark Star, White Star...... I'm fine. ”

Otohime smiled at Shark Star and Shirahoshi and the others, acting as if they were fine, signaling them not to worry, and at the same time looking at Rhodes not far away, and said, "You have to thank him well." ”

Compared to Otohime, who had his back to the Draconian, Shark Star and Shirahoshi and others saw the scene where Rhodes appeared more clearly, and although Rhodes was a human, they still felt a little grateful in their hearts.

"Ah...... Aligado, Rhodes Sama ......"

In Bai Xing's cute big eyes, there seemed to be a trace of tears that had not been wiped away, because of Rhodes's appearance, this time she failed to awaken the ability of the Sea King, and did not summon the Sea King.

Rhodes smiled at Shirahoshi, who was only six years old and was already much bigger than him, and Otohime was even thinner than him, and it was hard to believe that they could be mother and daughter.

Could it be that Neptune was having some kind of affair?

Rhodes thought maliciously in his heart.

"That's it, mermaid princess Shirahoshi."

Robin came to Rhodes' side and looked at Shirahoshi and the others who were walking in front of him with Otohime, his finger on his chin, revealing a look of thought.

The legendary ancient weapon, Poseidon the Sea King.

"Hmm."

Rhodes nodded, distorted his voice, and said: "I stopped the awakening, if I awaken in front of everyone, I will have to trouble Lafitte to do group hypnosis, but as a mermaid princess, she will awaken this power sooner or later." ”

“……”

Robin's eyes flickered slightly, and he didn't know what to think, and finally sighed softly.

What happened in the blank 100 years, why did the historical text stele remain, why did the ancient weapons that can destroy the world exist, and what did the world government want to cover up?

Everything was haunted by a great mystery in her mind.

But.

Becoming a crew member of the Ghost Hand Pirates, and having made it all the way here, it is no longer far enough to truly unravel this mystery!

……

Ryugu Castle vestibule.

After Otohime returned to Ryugu Castle, he was immediately sent to the infirmary for treatment, while Rhodes came to the front hall, which was so magnificent that even many royal palaces in the human world were far less dazzling than here.

Large pearls, corals, and other things that are extremely precious to humans can be found everywhere in Ryugu Castle, and there are too many treasures hidden at the bottom of the sea.

At this time, Rhodes was sitting on a chair, and in front of him was Haixia Jinping, under normal circumstances, Jinping would not enter Dragon Palace City, but when a dangerous person like Rhodes came in, he must follow up and keep an eye on it.

"Seven Martial Seas, Sea Heroes ...... Jinping"

After enjoying the scenery of Dragon Palace Castle, Rhodes's eyes returned to Jinping, and there was a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

If he had met Jinping earlier, maybe he would have had thoughts about Jinping, the Seven Martial Seas, but now that he had hunted the Sand Crocodile and Moonlight Moria, and Doflamingo was also the one who would have to do it sooner or later, in the case of continuous decline, the significance of hunting Jinping was very low.

In comparison, it is more important to have Fish-Man Island in your hands.

"Thank you for saving Her Royal Highness...... However, although I don't know what you want to do, I still hope that you don't mess around here, otherwise the old man will stop you desperately. ”

Jinping looked at Rhodes with a solemn face.

As a pirate, Rhodes came to Ryugu City, and he naturally had to plan for the worst.

If it was in the sea, he would have absolute confidence to fight Rhodes, but on land, he was not absolutely sure of winning against the pirates with a bounty of 440 million Bailey.

"Don't be so hostile."

Rhodes smiled, stared at Jinping twice, and suddenly said, "If I say that you should give up your position in the Seven Martial Seas and join the Ghost Hand Pirates, what do you think?" ”

Jinping was stunned, shook his head and declined: "I'm very sorry, I can't join you, although you are kind to Her Royal Highness the Princess, but I also need the identity of the Seven Martial Seas to protect the safety of Fish-Man Island." ”

"That's a shame."

Rhodes leaned back slightly, looking up at the ceiling studded with shells and pearls, and spoke softly, as if he were pointing.

In the past, he had faced various threats and had no time to think about the direction of the future, but now that he has the strength to protect himself under the Admiral, his mentality has changed.

What is his ultimate goal? The Four Emperors? One Piece?

No

Neither.

Ever since killing a Draco in the Chambord Islands, Rhodes has had a plan to replace the World Government, although this is more difficult than defeating all the Four Emperors and becoming the King of the Pirates, but it is not absolutely impossible for him to have a talent system and many advanced memories.

If one day, he really defeats the navy and defeats the world government, then the Ghost Hand Pirates will remove the name of the pirates and become the new rulers, and all the cadres on his ship will also become one of the rulers, just like the twenty kings who founded the government eight hundred years ago.

Jinping refused, that is, he gave up this possibility.

Rhodes will not invite a second time either.
