One Piece: Adopting Akainu at the beginning, adopted son Barrett

Chapter 71 Three Cries and Three Hugs
"You are my crew member. Your safety is more important than anything else! Got it!"

Alexander's words hit Jinbei's heart like a heavy hammer, and the emotion that had been suppressed in his heart burst out directly.

The man and the fish, covered in blood, hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Tiger watched this scene with a smile, feeling extremely relieved but also conflicted about what Princess Otohime said.

Didn't he wish that the fishmen could live on the surface instead of lingering under the false sunshine at the bottom of the sea?

He had witnessed the prosperity of the Sabaody Archipelago and seen the stronger spiritual colors, which was why he was able to gather a group of like-minded fishmen in the Fishman Street.

What Fishman Street lacks the least is blood, but they have never believed in more exciting emotions!

"By the way, Jinbei, are these fishmen your companions?"

The two cried for more than ten minutes before slowly separating, their streaming tears leaving white marks on their bright red bodies.

Alexander said sadly as he looked at the corpses of the mermen around him.

Jinbe's mood also became visibly depressed. Among these fishmen there were even some of his childhood playmates, or those who had taken good care of his older brother since he was a child.

More importantly, they are all followers behind Big Brother Tiger, a group of real "heroes"!
"Feel sorry……"

Alexander also realized his mistake, and he could feel Jinbei's obvious sadness.

"It's okay, Alexander. They are all heroes. Their deaths will not be meaningless. The mermaids of Coral Hill will and should remember them!"

Jinbei shook his head and said, although it was sad, death in the cruel ocean was not uncommon.

People also died when they were doing justice in the past, but this time the number of deaths was too far!
Enough to make Jinbe question Neptune and hate Neptune!

If Tiger hadn't woken him up in time, he might have become the first murloc to attack the murderous murloc king and made the already chaotic murloc street even more chaotic.

He shouldn't do this to the country and the people!

"I'm just a little disappointed. I wanted to clean up Fishman Island before you came and show you its most beautiful scene."

Jinbei sighed and looked around. All around him were dilapidated ruins. Even the Mermaid Cafe not far away was affected.
"Over there is the Mermaid Cafe I told you about, but I'll have to wait a while before I can invite you to visit."

After saying that, Jinbei touched the back of his head awkwardly. They had clearly agreed to bring Alexander here to try it out first.

But now I can only start from other places.

Beside them, Tiger looked at Jinbei and Alexander in surprise, but after thinking about it, he said nothing.

They have grown up and are indeed at the age where they can try new things. Going to that kind of place can help them gain some experience, and it will also improve their vision in choosing a partner in the future.

Thinking of this, Tiger smiled happily.

"How can I be disappointed? Fishman Island has many places worth recording! The first stop of our adventure is here!
I have already thought about writing this experience into the adventure book, and then officially announce that you are the first official member of our Nasdaq Adventure Team!"

Alexander smiled excitedly, and the blood stains on his face could not hide his happy expression.

However, Jinbei was somewhat puzzled:
"Why the Nasdaq Adventure Group? I think you should use your own elements more, Alexander!
You are going to be a great adventurer! How can you let the world only remember your family and not you? I don't agree!"

Alexander was stunned by Jinbei's resolute look, and then he suddenly reacted, and tears and snot flowed out again uncontrollably.

He didn't think too much about it, he just thought it would be better to use his own last name and it would make his parents more proud of him.

He completely forgot his previous thoughts and became a world-famous adventurer!
but!

Jinbei remembered! He still remembered his original dream! He wanted himself to be known around the world, not to let the name NASDAQ be known around the world again!

Just like his elder brother Yatuo, he should be known by the world first, and then people will pay attention to the surname he carries. This is the right way!

"Jinbei!"

"Alexander!" The man and the fish hugged each other with tears streaming down their cheeks once again.

Tiger saw it.

What a rare friendship! Perhaps it was this friendship that made Alexander travel thousands of miles to Fishman Island and not only choose this place as the first stop of his adventure.

More importantly, he was willing to risk his life for Jinpei! Everything that happened today could be called a life-or-death friendship!
In this age where humans despise fishmen and covet mermen, this kind of friendship across races is more dazzling than crystal and more precious than dreams!
"Wow, then what do you think our adventure group should be called, Jinbe? Wow."

"Wow, I don't know either. You're the leader, isn't this what you should be thinking? Wow."

After separating from Jinbei, Alexander wiped away his tears and snot.

Looking at Jinbei, he thought of the other's dream - a sea knight.

"Then let's call it the Ranger Adventure Group, how about that!
I aspire to travel around the world, and you aspire to be a knight across the ocean!
This is our two-person adventure group, and you must be included in its name. This is my request, in the name of the group leader!"

"Really, Alexander! You...I! But!"

"There's nothing to worry about. We made this agreement from the beginning!"

On the blood carpet.

The man and the fish looked at each other, and for the third time they couldn't control their emotions and burst into tears. Then they hugged each other and burst into tears again.

"Brother Tiger! I'm so glad you're all right!"

A familiar voice came from afar. It was the parrot fishman called Ah Si.

He never dared to get close to the battlefield, and at the age of thirteen, he could only anxiously wait for the end of the matter.

He also tried to go to Murloc Street to get reinforcements, but everyone was dissuaded by some of his fellow Murlocs with strange looks on their faces. He alone had no weight at all.

He also went to the palace, but the guards' words made him feel strange and sad.

Only now that everything was completely quiet could he slowly come over to find out what was going on.

Fortunately, the King of the Sea protects Brother Tiger and Brother Jinbe. Although I don’t know why there is a human child there, he seems to be a good person!

"Ah Si! What's the situation outside now?"

Dragging his injured arm, Tiger asked anxiously, he was afraid that this attack was not limited to this area.

Fortunately, Ah Si did not reveal the fact that worried him, and said:

"Don't worry, Brother Tiger, there are no problems elsewhere!"

However, the scene changed, Ah Si's eyes became dim, and his tone became low:
“But… whether it’s Fishman Street or Dragon Palace, everyone seems to have been bewitched and is completely ignoring this place!
And the merpeople who escaped, they didn't even call for help, they just stayed in the square and grieved alone! Them! Them!"

"Ah Si! I know..."

I have just a few words to complain. Yesterday a reader said that my story was watery. I don’t deny that the recent plot does seem watery, but as a small author I am not a great writer and I cannot maintain the quality of every chapter when there are tens of thousands of pages a day!
In order to ensure that the promise of 20,000 copies per day for a week can be fulfilled after the book is put on the shelves, the young author started to frantically stockpile manuscripts a few days ago. The current number is around 40,000, which is only the amount after the book is put on the shelves two days later.

I don’t ask for the forgiveness of my readers, I just hope that you can give me a little understanding.

Finally, I cannot satisfy all readers and can only hope to compensate them after recognizing their mistakes.

The original plan was to have 300,000 words in the first month after it was put on the shelves, but I added 70,000 more to compensate for the mistake I made a few days ago. I didn’t think those chapters were good enough myself.

Finally: Please keep reading! If you can't keep reading, we have to put it on the shelves on Tuesday or Monday next week, otherwise it may not be available for four rounds!

Please, please! In a word, if you keep up with the reading, it’s okay for the author to add chapters until he is exhausted!
Oda’s information is really hard to understand, oh.

Before writing a new plot, you should not only look at the character's background again, but also ask him to connect the plot!
