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

Chapter 74: Journey to Fishman Island

[Fishman Island Journey Preface: "Promise"

This is a multi-year agreement.

That day, I saved a fishman named Jinbe. He was nine years old and I was eight. We met on Cloud Island and had the same dream.

I hope to be a great adventurer, he hopes to be a chivalrous knight, and we both hope to make our names known throughout the sea!

I hope everyone can hear and see my story.

He hopes that humans and murlocs can live in peace like he and I do.

Greed and filth will not stop, but if possible, he hopes it will stop there and not add racial discrimination on top of it.

Today, at the beginning of the year 1490 of the Haiyuan calendar, I crossed the East China Sea and the Grand Line, ready to invite him and make Fishman Island the first stop of the adventure, but...

.........

...............

There is no point in taking an adventure without a partner! We met again, and he became my crew member. At the same time, I also got to know the hero Tiger and the camera master Ah Si. 】

Two photos were sandwiched between this page of records.

One is a group photo of four people, and the other is the first group photo of the adventure team.

A commemoration, a beginning.

[Fishman Island Travel Notes 1: "Coral Hill"

Fishman Island is really beautiful! It is worthy of being a miracle 10,000 meters under the sea!
Although it is a pity that the long-famous "Fish-Man Cafe" has been temporarily closed and may not reopen for several years, I feel a little regretful that I cannot experience it in person.

There are many famous and beautiful places in Fishman Island.

After a short reconstruction, I came to the place where the mermaids live, Coral Hill, under the guidance of Jinbei and Ah Si.

This place is full of beautiful mermaids. Unlike the generally heroic, terrifying, combative and brave fish people, they are lively and cute, but also timid and pitiful.

I was surprised to see that the Poseidon King seemed to have bestowed two completely different personalities on its two children.

After all, compared to the rich emotions of humans, the personalities of mermen and fishmen are almost carved into two templates, and very few can jump out of the template. 】

The photo of the coral hills and the photo of the passionate mermaids, these two photos lie quietly in the pages.

Turning to another page, the pen dances lightly on it:

[Fishman Island Journey 2: "Mermaid Bay"

This is where most of the fishmen live, and there are also many mermaids living here. This can be said to be the most dreamy place in the entire Fishman Island.

You can even see blue sky and white clouds here, and I don’t know how it is achieved.

The buildings here are still made of shells, but they are not built around beautiful corals. 】

After writing, Alexander sandwiched a landscape photo and some photos of fish people gathering inside.

"Bang bang!"

Just as he was about to continue writing, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in"

As he spoke, the door was pushed open, and Jinbei walked in slowly, saying:
"Alexander! King Neptune has prepared a dinner and invited us to it. It's going to start in about an hour. When are we going?"

More than ten days had passed since the confrontation that day. During these days, he followed Jinbei and Ah Si on trips, taking photos and recording materials.

Tomorrow is the day when the navy and the king of the allied country leave, and they can also take a ride on a ship and leave together.

King Neptune prepared a sumptuous dinner to see them off.

"There's still an hour left? No hurry, wait until I finish writing this. This trip to Fishman Island is really worth it!"

"As long as you are happy, I hope I haven't let you down these days. I told you that Fishman Island is beautiful!" "Yeah, I want to ask my eldest brother to come over when I get back, and use Bailey or other supplies to buy some specialties to decorate Cloud Island.

Compared to Fishman Island, Cloud Island is still too monotonous. I also want my home to be as beautiful as Jinbei's!"

Alexander put down his pen, stood up and said excitedly.

He had already thought about it. He would mark some of the special items in the adventure and then ask his eldest brother to send someone to take them back to Cloud Island for decoration, whether for exchange or transfer.

Jinbe also thought it was no problem. He heard that Alexandria Goyato seemed to be very rich. If he bought it, maybe the situation in Fishman Street could be improved.

Then he said:

“Well, I’ll talk to Brother Tiger later and ask him to discuss it with King Neptune.

But Alexander should not be too self-deprecating. In my heart, Cloud Island will always be the most beautiful place in this ocean!
Because there are so many kind-hearted people there, this is the most beautiful scenery in my eyes!

What’s more, that’s my best friend’s home!”

"Damn it! Jinbei, your words moved me to tears! How can I concentrate on writing my travelogue?"

Alexander rubbed his sore nose, then stood up and pushed Jinbei away, saying as he pushed:
"Hurry up, hurry up, come over as soon as I finish writing, don't disturb me, damn Jinbei!"

“Hahaha, Alexander must write about my hometown in a more beautiful way, so that all humans will like this place and understand that mermen and mermaids are not enemies, but friends who can live in harmony with each other!”

"I know, I know! Let's go!"

"bang"

After closing the door and rubbing his moist eyes, Alexander picked up the book and pen and began to write again:
[Fishman Island Travel Notes: "Fishman Street"

Tiger and Jinbei were born here.

As far as my personal impression is concerned, this place is in sharp contrast to other places in Fishman Island. It is chaotic, unbearable, and disorderly, and does not have the outward beauty and brilliance of other places.

But precisely because of this, Yuman Street can shine with inner light and be spiritually beautiful.

Under the leadership of Brother Tiger, the fishmen here are brutal and aggressive, but they are quite loyal! The words "chivalrous" and "righteous" are the best way to describe them.

Once you gain their approval and recognition, they will become absolutely trustworthy partners.

My two companions, Jinbe and Si, were born in Fishman Street.

At the same time, Jinbei is also the fighting force of the Ranger Adventure Group, and I can put my life in his hands without reservation.

Likewise, he is willing to entrust his life to me, a human being!

Maybe there are still individual cases among them, but isn't it the same among human beings?

Just like the "Promise" in the preface, human slave-hunting teams and gangs are just individual cases among humans, and their behavior is something that even we ourselves despise and anger!
So, what would the victims, the fishmen and mermen, think?
As far as I know, most of the fishmen in Fishman Street are orphans. Some were abandoned, and some had their families destroyed by humans.

Here, I would like to say sorry to them on behalf of mankind.

I certainly cannot represent everyone, but I can represent all kind-hearted people, just because of my last name - Nasdaq.

My father provided home and warmth to the displaced orphans.

My brother lets the next generation of Beihai live in peace and tranquility.

My elder brother Sakaski…】

The author deleted about 10,000 words. This chapter is indeed a bit too long. I originally planned to write the entire Sky Island story, but after thinking about it, I decided to give up.

After all, many readers have reported that the storyline between the second son and Jinbe is not very good, so the subsequent adventures will be simply summarized in the form of a newspaper.

I won’t go against the readers. If the writing is not good, I won’t write it. I will jump directly to the Sakaski chapter and Barrett chapter.

By the way, there are some clashes of ideas between Yixiao and the protagonist, so please look forward to it!
