Chapter 182: Fish-Man Island

What is Fish-Man Island?

Fish-Man Island –

Located 10,000 meters below the sea floor of the Chambord Islands, the "legendary island" is also the birthplace of most of the Fish-Folk and Merfolk people, with a population of about 5 million.

Also known as: Underwater Paradise!

If you want to enter the New World from the first half of the Great Passage, Fish-Man Island is the first choice for most pirates.

To get here, you usually need to coat the hull of the ship in the Chambord Islands and then sail through the currents, which are many dangers before you can reach it safely.

……

The structure of Fish-Man Island is very special and can be called a wonder.

Although it is located under the deep sea, there will also be "sky" and "clouds", and even "sunshine".

That's because the huge tree that grows near Fish-Man Island, Sunny Tree Eve, can conduct sunlight from the ground to the roots, which in turn illuminates the entire Fish-Man Island.

As a result, the change of day and night occurs in the dark, deep sea, a phenomenon that the local population calls "the blessing of the sun".

And under the rhizome of the huge "sun", the sun tree Eve, sits the Fish-Man Island itself.

A huge double-layered semi-circular bubble wrap envelops the entire Fish-Man Island.

Between the two layers of shields, there is a large layer of air that acts as a buffer against the outside world.

These two layers of air film are quite tough.

Even if a person or a ship forcibly breaks into Fish-Man Island from the wrong path, the shroud film will automatically repair it.

As for the trespassers, most of them will fall into the middle layer of air and fall to the ground.

Even if they succeed in breaking through the shield, the intruder will be swept away by the currents inside the shield.

Undoubtedly, Fish-Man Island, although it may seem fragile, is a fairly stable island.

The Fish-People and the Merfolk have made their home here, turning Fish-Man Island into a fantastic kingdom!

However, under this "dream", there is "blood and tears" hidden.

……

It is a history that all fishmen and mermaids cannot forget.

It's "now" and "now".

At some point in history, the Fish-People and the Merfolk were classified as "fish" by humans and were discriminated against.

It wasn't until about two hundred years ago that the Kingdom of Ryugu became a member of the World Government, and the Fish-Man and Merfolk were given so-called "human rights", and the King of Fish-Man Island was allowed to participate in the World Conference.

Despite this, humans still maintain an attitude of disgust towards the fish-people, and the relationship between the two sides has deteriorated further.

With the passage of time, the era of pirates opened.

Many of the villains who passed through Fish-Man Island began to raid Fish-Man Island.

Since both the able-bodied Fish-Folk and the young, beautiful female Merfolk can be sold for high prices in the slave market, kidnapping cases often occur on the island.

This situation did not improve until Edward Newgate, one of the "Four Emperors", announced that he would take Fish-Man Island as one of his territories.

The villains on all sides were hindered by the power of [Whitebeard] and did not dare to make the slightest mistake.

Gradually, Fish-Man Island is no longer a "slave hunting ground", but a "tourist attraction" famous in the sea.

……

But is that all there is to the "future" of the Fish-Folk race?

while praying for the mercy of the world government;

On the one hand, he thanked [Whitebeard] for his protection;

Is that all there is to it?

This question has made a very small number of people begin to think deeply.

Among them, there are "two", and their existence is the most critical.

One is an old friend of Evan Lindsay.

Fisher Tiger, the [Fishman Hero] who once made a big fuss with him in the Chambord Islands Arena, and later climbed the Red Earth Continent with his bare hands, causing the Mary Joya incident!

Tiger's painful experience made him regard the vast majority of humanity as enemies and advocate a "break with humanity".

But the presence of Evan Lindsey made Tiger fall into deeper thinking.

The second is the queen of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, Princess Otohime.

The princess, who was physically weak, advocated "peaceful coexistence with mankind".

In the near future, she also took the initiative to rescue the fallen Draco "Muse Calder Saint".

That noble character even influenced this Draconian, causing the Muse Calder Saint to reflect on the various aspects of the Draconian, until he was on the right path.

Some people will say that Princess Otohime's claim is too naΓ―ve.

But her tenacious will can even convince the erosive life of the Tianlong people.

Who can not respect her?

……

Later, Princess Otohime was killed by her fellow clansmen because of her "inexplicable hatred".

In the more distant future, Hoddy Jones started civil unrest on Fish-Man Island, and the Straw Hat Boys intervened, which is one of the many "possibilities".

……

Time comes back to the present.

Princess Otohime is still signing petitions for the people and campaigning around the country.

The inhabitants of Fish-Man Island also live a relatively peaceful life.

A group of young Fish-People leave Fish-Man Island in groups, intending to explore the nearby seabed.

It's one of the activities they love.

This group of young fish emerged from the bubble film and came to the deep sea.

For the harsh environment that ordinary humans can kill, it just makes this group of fish-man imps a little cooler.

"Ahh

A Fish-Man imp sneezes.

His companion stepped forward and smiled: "Let you talk big, but you will catch a cold, right?" ”

"No, I'm so excited!"

The fish-man imp retorted and pouted, "What do you think we will find this time?" ”

"Coral? Seashell? ”

My companion swam back and forth in the sea and thought of many interesting things.

"Anyway, I want to see the sea too, but my parents say it's too dangerous because it's full of humans......

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Hey, what do you say?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ No, it's not! ”

The fish-man imp tugged at his companion's shoulders and motioned for him to look into the distance, his tone extremely stunned.

The companion turned his head and saw the bizarre scene as well.

They saw an olive-shaped "bubble".

No......

It's not bubbles, there's no film, it's just a simple cloud of "air".

There appear to be several humans in the air.

One of them grabbed the other three, aimed in the direction of Fish-Man Island, and was running wild!

"This ...... This ......"

Before the imp and his companion could react, the man swept past the two of them at great speed.

Faintly, it seems that the sound of cursing can be heard.

"Unlucky, unlucky, unlucky......"

The human grabbed the other three like this and yelled, "Primitive people hold me up, I don't want to drown in front of Fish-Man Island!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The four came and went in a hurry.

Before the fish-man imp and his companions could react, they had already watched the four of them walk away.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The little ghost paused and grinned, "It was an illusion just now, right?" ”

The companion nodded, and said, "Ah...... It's a hallucination, right? ”

……

Fish-Man Island Beach.

It is close to the entrance to Fish-Man Island and is one of the famous attractions.

Many beautiful mermaid ladies will play in the water here, which is very popular with tourists.

However, it has been a low season recently, and there are very few human tourists.

Several mermaid ladies gathered here, talking and laughing, which is also a good picture.

Suddenlyβ€”

Four "bulges" have emerged in the seawater.

Four figures appeared and appeared beside the group of mermaid misses.

It's human.

But the four humans who suddenly appeared did not show hostility, only a thick exhaustion.

They passed by one after another under the stunned gaze of the mermaid ladies.

Dripping with the sea, I walked to the shore.

There are still words in his mouth.

……

Uta walked at the front, barely raising his hands in the air.

Although I am already very tired, the excitement that should be there will continue to be exciting.

Otherwise, it's not called a big adventure!

"Oh-yes! Came...... It's been to Fish-Man Island......"

……

Robin followed, gasping for air.

With a serious expression, the terrifying words blurted out, and said calmly:

"I thought we were going to be corpses."

……

Evan Lindsey was third, twisting his arms and grins.

"Guys, it's good to be alive!"

He said happily:

"I love you!"

……

Klockdahl walked last, shaking off the seaweed from his hair, his face gloomy.

"Hoo ......"

The corners of his eyes twitched, and he kept muttering:

"I hate everyone!"

"I hate everybody!!"

Fish-Man Island Arc opens!

Thanks for reading, and stay tuned!

Another –

The mermaid ladies are awesome!
