Chapter 145: Fish-Man Street, Hodi, Intelligence
Fish-Man Island is wrapped in round, huge bubbles that never seem to burst.
Although the whole island is sunk to the bottom of the sea, it is full of sunshine, thanks to the "Sunny Tree Eve".
Sunny Tree Eve is as famous as Adam Treasure Tree.
Adam Tree is known for its sturdiness and is mostly used to build ships, and Roger's ship is made of Adam Tree.
And the role of Yoki Eve is different.
Its roots are deep into the sea, but the canopy of the tree sticks out of the sea, and with wonderful power, it extradites the light from above to reach Fish-Man Island 10,000 meters below.
However, Fish-Man Island still has a place of shadows where the sun does not shine.
That is the "Fish-Man Street" built next to "Promise Ship Noah".
Dark, cold, chaotic, violent...... It's all synonymous with Fish-Man Street.
The giant fish-man Mianzumi was ordered to stand outside Fish-Man Street, he was too large to enter this place.
Vander Daken staggered to his severed right arm with his left palm, and walked past the unsightly fish-man guard into a hill-like mussel shell.
Inside is the stronghold of the "New Fish-Man Pirates".
As soon as he walked in, his embarrassed posture drew a round of ridicule from all around him.
"Isn't this Captain Vander Dyken? How did you get this look? โ
"I heard that my hand is broken, let me see, can I still take it back?"
"Hehe, of course you have to take it back, it's the right hand, remember the right hand of Princess Shirahoshi as the target!"
"Haha, look at his appearance, his right hand is soft, I'm afraid he won't be able to get hard anymore!"
Hearing this, Vander Dyken was angry and anxious, remembering that the memory of his right hand had been cleansed, and he was even more uncomfortable, and his face turned red.
Vander Dyken looked over and laughed at him as all of Hoddy's men.
They all grinned and looked him up and down, as if he were some kind of treasure.
Before Vander Dyken could curse back, a male merfolk voice interrupted him.
"My esteemed Captain van der Dyken, it's strange that you would come to me on your own initiative."
Sitting on the sofa in the center was Hody, who was smiling in an ironic tone:
"What's the matter, was your right hand broken by the third prince of the Dragon Palace? They finally can't stand the pain of their sister's imprisonment for eight years, and they are settling accounts with you? โ
"Princess Shirahoshi and I are truly in love!" Vander Dyken had only time to retort.
Hody sneered, "That's really strange, Neptune hasn't married his daughter to Ling yet, and it looks like he's going to test you for a few more years." โ
The fish-man pirates burst out laughing, and some even fell off their chairs with laughter.
Vander Dyken clutched his limp right hand, his face gloomy.
He began to regret that it was not a completely wrong choice for him to come here, he should have thought that this group of fishmen would react like this.
Not a single fish-man, sympathetic to poor Captain van der Dyken!
It's so hateful!
Vander Dyken's face turned red with anger, and he couldn't hold it anymore, so he brushed his sleeves away.
Finally, Hody waved his hand, and the laughter gradually stopped.
He could also see that something terrible had indeed happened to Van der Dyken, otherwise he would not have come here to accept the cynicism of the crowd.
Hody cocked Erlang's legs, his expression was leisurely, and the angular pale face under the soft hat finally put away his smile and said, "Give him a seat." โ
Immediately, a fish-man moved in a chair for Vander Dyken to sit down.
Vander Dyken had been on the road for a long time, and it was true that all four legs were weak, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he sat in his chair.
Someone handed him water again, and he took it, but he didn't drink it yet.
Vander Dyken's eyes rolled thiefly.
He knew that his hope of revenge and retaking the Flying Dutchman lay in Hoddy.
Now he can't be as strong as he used to be.
So Vander Dyken changed his tone to a low voice.
As soon as this gesture spoke, Hody and his men were taken aback.
"Captain Hody, my good brother......"
Vander Dyken complained, tears almost falling.
When everyone heard this, they were uncomfortable, and goosebumps rose.
"You don't know what happened to me, I could have walked away, but when I think you don't know it, I can't just let my good brother have an accident, that's why I came without stopping."
Hody didn't believe that Vander Dyken would have such good intentions, but he was a little surprised that his posture was suddenly lowered so low, so he asked, "What happened to you?" โ
"It's the Davy Jones Pirates!" Vander Daken gritted his teeth and said, "They are here, just around Fish-Man Island, they attacked me first, and the next step is to attack you on Fish-Man Island." โ
"David Jones? The fish-man pretending to be the 'Hades of the Deep'? Hody sat up straight, his strong muscles tensed, and he finally became interested, "Why did he attack you?" โ
"How would I know? I guess he just doesn't like my pirate group and wants to get rid of me, otherwise what can I and my broken ship be worth attacking? He must want to clean up all the pirates on Fish-Man Island, and then take control of this place himself! โ
Van der Dyken was reluctant to reveal the peculiarities of the Flying Dutchman, so he tried to lead Hody to the same hatred based on his own speculation, but it was surprisingly close to the truth.
Hody didn't have a good impression of David Jones in the first place, and he already believed it in his heart, but he still ordered: "Go to the two Fishmen, ride the fastest sea beast, and take a look around Fish-Man Island, so that David Jones doesn't find out." โ
Hodi's men immediately ordered two fishmen and let them go.
"Don't you believe me?" Vander Dyken showed an aggrieved expression, "I have always been your most loyal and good brother. โ
"All I know is that I have invited you to join the New Fish-Man Pirates more than a dozen times, but you have shirked them for various reasons."
Hoddy paused, and then said, "Actually, I believe you, because just a few days ago, Mr. Aaron's sister, Lady Charlie, had made a precise prediction about the imminent arrival of David Jones, and I had been prepared for it. โ
Vander Dyken's eyes widened in surprise, Lady Charlie was famous on Fish-Man Island.
"Lady Charly's prophecy? Captain Hody, my good brother, this is your fault, how can such a prophecy not be told to me in advance? Maybe I'll be able to get away with it. โ
Hody just glanced at Vander Dyken obliquely, and instead of answering the question, he asked, "You were the first to come into contact with that impostor, tell me, what kind of person is he?" โ
"He's not an impostor! My good brother, you know, he broke off my right hand and tamed Kuraken, so that Mianjin was too frightened to move when he saw the big man. I reckon my lanternfish died at their hands too. โ
Hody was taken aback when he heard this: "He took Kulaken?" Is that the North Sea Monster? โ
"Yes, that's it."
Hody's face darkened.
He was recently preparing for his subordinates to find the lair of the Kuraken brothers, so as to threaten Kuraken so that he could also become a member of the new Fish-Man Pirates, but he didn't expect to be taken by David Jones.
"How did he tame?"
"How can I possibly know this, my good brother, I am the greatest luck to see you alive!"
Vander Dyken picked up the cup in his left hand and filled his mouth with a trembling mouth, looking like the panic could not be pretended.
Hody snorted.
"No matter how he tames Kuraken, that North Sea Monster is a threat to us, and we need to find a way to get rid of it."
"yes, yes." Vander Dyken put down his glass and nodded desperately.
Hodi said that, but he didn't have much concern about Kuraken.
On the one hand, his subordinates have many sea beasts, and on the other hand, he has a killer weapon that he has not used - "Murder Medicine Eยท Sโใ
Ingesting enough "murder medicine", Hodi alone is enough to kill Kuraken.
"Who else is on Davy Jones' ship besides Kulaken?" Hody then asked, he needed more information.
Vander Daken was not stingy either, and replied: "David Jones's ship looks eerie, I can't see how many crew there are, I only see a clown who can take off his head." โ
"A clown with his head off?"
"Right...... I was shocked at the time, but now that I think about it, it was probably the same Devil Fruit ability as me. โ
Hody sneered.
Devil Fruit Abilities dare to come to the deep sea, do you think you are a crew member of the Whitebeard Pirates?
"In addition to that clown, I also saw Hachi."
"Hachi-......" If it was in the past, Hodi would still call him "Mr. Hachi-chan", but now that he is a traitor to the Fish-Man Pirates, "He still dares to come back here." โ
Hody turned his head to look to the side.
In that direction, a leopard-print octopus fish-man was leaning against a stone pillar, holding a wine gourd, drunk.
