Chapter 25: Fishman Chirp
"Brubru, Brubru."
In the office of the Navy Headquarters, Marin Vando, Marshal Sengoku, the phone was ringing non-stop.
The Warring States, who was buried in the case, answered the phone skillfully, like a social animal that had formed a conditioned reflex.
"This is Sengoku."
"Sengoku, this is Karp."
Listening to the familiar loud voice, Sengoku frowned slightly, didn't he send Karp to the four seas to deter pirates? He's not going to get into trouble out there and keep himself in his pocket, right?
"Hey, Karp, are there any pirates you can't deal with in a place like the Four Seas? Why call back. ”
"Hahaha, if it's a pirate, it's really easy to deal with, the old man came out this time and met a great boy, and he learned a news about the navy......"
Karp explained the reason for the incident to Sengoku.
"Mallory Bart, an animal-based phantom beast, a swordsman, a bounty hunter, a strong man who can fight you, is indeed a noteworthy piece of information."
As a naval marshal, Sengoku has always paid attention to the powerful on the sea, even if it is a new one.
Because even a newcomer can cause a major incident, that red-haired Shanks went from a nobody to a sea thief in just a few years, and now he has become the Four Emperors.
Not to mention that this time it is still an animal phantom beast species with the same ability as himself, especially noteworthy, he will never allow the second Shanks to appear.
"Karp, I know what you said, Colonel Mouse's side I will send someone to deal with it, you did a good job this time, I think such a potential newcomer should be recruited to the navy in time, but unfortunately failed.
I will pay special attention to this man named Bart, a person with the ability of animal phantom beast species, and will never be willing to remain unknown on the sea.
I hope he doesn't go down the path of evil and confront justice, but at present, I see that he has no such tendency, just a young man chasing his dreams.
Is the world's No. 1 swordsman? That Mihawk's reputation is really not small. ”
Sengoku apparently took Bart's dream seriously, and while summarizing the information about Bart, he thought about what kind of impact Bart would have on the sea in the future.
It's a pity that Karp is obviously not in the mood to hear the chatter, he has to rush home to see his grandson, and those two guys who clamore every day to be One Piece may go to sea without paying attention.
"Karp, you bastard!"
Sengoku scolded angrily, Karp has always been like this.
......
"It's really miserable."
Bart lamented that he and Nami were now in a village near the village of Cocosia, which was also ruled by Aaron the Fishman.
But apparently the village is in a bad state right now, with many houses being overturned, in shambles, and scarlet blood in some places.
"It must have been done by those fishmen with incredible strength, and they have always been cruel to the villagers who can't pay the offering."
Nami's face was gloomy, how many villages do you have to destroy to be satisfied, fishmen?
The two originally wanted to have a meal in this town, but apparently this goal could not be achieved for the time being, and the residents of the town hid in their houses and shivered, not daring to stay on the street.
"You human bastards, Uncle Ben just wants to get some groceries and drinks, and you dare to disobey the noble fishmen, despicable humans!"
The fish-man cadre kicked over the container, and the goods and sawdust splashed everywhere, hitting the trembling family of four.
"Please, we don't have the money to buy anymore, and if these goods are taken away, we won't be able to pay the offerings next month!"
The man cried and said, extremely desperate, when will such a day come to an end, they are now almost no longer even human.
"What's the matter with Lao Tzu!"
The fish-man cadre at the head smashed a bottle of wine on the man, and then laughed and walked away with a bag of groceries and drinks, with a look of contempt in his eyes, this group of lowly and weak humans did not even have the courage to face them.
"Damn!"
The son of the family, a little boy of about ten years old, suddenly rushed out of his mother's arms and stabbed a knife into the thigh of the fish-man.
As everyone knows, those fishmen have a playful smile on their faces, and they have fun again, they want to have fun with this little guy who dares to resist the fishman.
After all, it is not allowed to hold a weapon in the Arlong Empire, it is a serious act of betrayal, an important factor in destroying stability, not to mention attacking the fishmen, which is the most serious sin.
But before the knife could get close to them, Bart kicked the kid's weapon out of the way.
"Huh?"
Looking back, the fish people wondered how incredible it was that humans had helped them.
"It turned out to be Nami, how about it, this trip to the sea made a lot of money, right?"
Seeing Nami chirp excitedly greeted her, this stupid woman was still desperate for the false promise of 100 million Bailey, I really expected to see the desperate expression when she learned the truth.
"Witch Nami, is the witch Nami of Cocosia Village, a cadre of the Aaron Pirates."
Someone exclaimed, he knew Nami's details.
"Damn, as a human, do you want to help the fish-people?!"
The child roared angrily, tears welling up in his eyes.
Nami is silent, this is the path she has chosen, it is reasonable to be rejected and scolded, no one likes the perpetrator, and in the eyes of these villagers she is both a betrayer and a perpetrator.
"Hey, boy, you didn't use the knife like that, who do you think you can protect?"
Bart picks up the struggling imp and throws it at his parents.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please forgive this kid once, we will definitely discipline him strictly."
His parents held him in their arms and begged for mercy, terrified.
"Chirp, long time no see."
Nami looked at them with an unkind expression, and a fireworks of revenge lit up in her eyes, this time, she must avenge Bermel and everyone in the village.
"What kind of eyes are you looking at, shouldn't you be happy to see your companion? By the way, who is this human being, the fat sheep you brought from the outside? It's quite smart and knows how to obey the noble fish-man. ”
Bart was clearly in no mood to talk to him, and counted the child as he took a bottle of juice from the scattered grocery pile and drank it.
"You didn't use the knife like that, why did you stab him in the thigh? A knife can't kill you at all, it's either fatal with a knife, or it stabs you in the most painful place, such as opening your eyes or something.
The fish-man is also a living being, and it hurts, so you may have a chance to give him a second knife, otherwise you won't even have a chance to pull a cushion on his back, and you will kill someone else. ”
The price of a moment's blood is heavy, and if it weren't for Bart and Nami today, I'm afraid it would be another tragic ending, and the family would have to shed their skin if they didn't die.
"Hey, boy, what are you talking about?"
The more the fish-man cadres listened, the more they felt that something was wrong, this damn soul dared to say such things in front of the fish-people.
