One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 585 Tiger's Book and Aaron

Shanks and the others struggled to run out from among the vendors. As Spencer shouted, the vendors around noticed Tiger's presence and gathered around him. Tiger still didn't know when he became so famous and had such great charm that so many people followed him.

"It's actually very simple. When we first signed the contract with the beasts, many people didn't trust the people on the ground. So the royal family brought you up, Brother Tiger, and asked someone to write a book about your adventures. Then, through this subtle behavior, everyone was made to accept the people on the land. As a result, as the cooperation with the Four Emperors deepened, the sales of your books increased, and your popularity increased. Now your reputation on Fishman Island is not even worse than that of the royal family."

As Jinbei spoke, he pointed to a bookstore on the side of the road. In the past, there were very few books in Fishman Island, and bookstores were almost out of the question. After all, in an overly humid environment, if there was no special place to store them, these books would soon become damp and moldy, and then turn into a puddle of paste. However, with the deepening of the cooperation between the two sides, after learning about this situation, Tesoro, who felt that this was a business opportunity, commissioned Indigo to make a special waterproof paper, which was then printed into books and put on Fishman Island. They were instantly sold out, and the royal family also reached a cooperative relationship with it and introduced a batch of paper to publish various books.

"So that's how it is. I was wondering why everyone's attitude towards me was not right after I came back this time."

Tiger picked up a book on the shelf at the entrance of the bookstore. The name on it was "Fisher Tiger - The Greatest Fish-Man Adventurer III". This exaggerated name made Tiger feel embarrassed and even like his toes were tapping the ground. Such an exaggerated name could actually be published for the third time. Moreover, he flipped through it twice and found that the things recorded in it were his own experiences more than ten years ago. If these books were not written in reverse order, then at least five or six more could be written.

"Um, is this Mr. Tiger? Can you sign an autograph for me?"

At this moment, a young voice sounded from the side. Tiger turned his head and saw a young Koi fish girl holding a book that was a little too big for her, and asked timidly.

"Of course kid, where do you sign?"

Tiger leaned over and said gently.

"Here, I'm a fan of yours, Mr. Tiger! I have all three of your books."

The little merman girl handed over the book in her hand, which was the book that Tiger had just read, "Fisher Tiger - The Greatest Merman Adventurer III". Tiger took the book with a smile and said:
"Can you understand it? Many of the words on it are not common words."

"Yes! If I don't understand, I can ask the teacher. The teacher will teach us."

The little girl puffed out her chest with pride, as she was an excellent student in the class.

"Teacher? That sounds great. What's your name?"

Tiger asked as he took the pen handed to him by the bookstore owner.

"My name is Elsa, Randy Elsa. Can you write that I hope Elsa can get first place in the class in this exam."

Little Elsa said expectantly.

"Of course, no problem. Look, it's written."

Tiger turned the book over and said to Elsa, on it was written in beautiful cursive what Elsa had just said.

"Thank you Mr. Tiger! I wish you many more great adventures!"

Elsa thanked him politely, turned around and ran away with the book in her arms. There were a few children in her direction, and Elsa was happily showing the book to her friends.

"What a cute child, isn't he?"

Shanks walked up and said to Tiger.

"Yeah, what a cute kid, but I'm more curious about the school she was talking about, Jinbe, is there a school on Fishman Island now?"

Tiger turned to Jinbei and asked, "Yes, it was established two years ago. Princess Otohime is the principal now. There are 42 teachers and more than 200 students in total. The birth rate has not risen in the past two years, so the number of students should increase in the future."

Jinbei nodded and said.

"That's great. In fact, when I came back this time, I wanted to suggest to King Neptune that we open a school. But now it seems that it's not necessary."

Tiger felt satisfied with this situation. He actually realized the importance of learning very early. After all, if the fishmen can really go out one day, then culture is a must. A race of all illiterate people will have no way out.

"Hahahahaha, it seems that we are ahead of you this time, Brother Tiger. But this is all thanks to Xia Li. She is a good friend of Yamato of Beasts. She saw the existence of the school over there and suggested this matter when she came back. That’s how we were able to build the school in time."

"Xia Li? I seem to remember this name. She seems to be Aaron's sister, right?"

Tiger said after a moment's silence after hearing Xia Li's name.

"Yes, it's Aaron's sister. A very cute little girl."

"So what's Aaron's situation now?"

Tiger said with some worry. Aaron was also someone Tiger had watched grow up since he was a child. He was clear about Aaron's character. Aaron was somewhat hostile towards humans, or the entire terrestrial race, even towards the royal family. The long-term oppressive environment of Fishman Street made Aaron become a little cruel.

“Aaron? Hahahahaha, Brother Tiger, you have no way of imagining what Aaron looks like now! Hahahahaha!”

As soon as Aaron was mentioned, Jinbei burst into laughter. This laughter made Tiger laugh. What happened to Aaron that made Jinbei laugh so happily?

"Jinbei! What bad things are you going to say about me?"

Just as Tiger was about to ask further questions, Aaron's voice suddenly sounded from behind the crowd. Tiger quickly turned around and saw that Aaron had been standing behind them without him knowing when. Aaron's clothes made Tiger begin to doubt his eyes. Is this really Aaron?

"Hey, long time no see, Brother Tiger. I heard from Jinbei that you're back, but you've been traveling all night."

Aaron didn't care about Tiger's surprised expression. He was even waiting for this expression. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to come wearing this outfit. After all, he came back from a serious leave and was allowed to wear casual clothes.

"You, you, you joined the Sea King's Army?"

Tiger was so surprised that his voice was distorted. He thought of many possibilities, and even considered that Arlong became an unstable factor and was dealt with, but he never thought that one day he would see Arlong wearing a set of Sea King's uniform. Instead, that set of clothes represented that it was not an ordinary Sea King's uniform! It was the same as Jinbei, the uniform of the deputy captain!
"Hahahahaha! You didn't expect that, did you? Brother Tiger! Hahahahaha!"

When Aaron saw Tiger’s jaw almost hitting the floor, he immediately laughed excitedly. He just wanted to see this expression, he just wanted to see this expression!
"Okay, Aaron, you are a leader now, don't be so unruly every day. What's more, you came back wearing this outfit. You represent the Sea King Army."

Jinbei looked helplessly at Arlong's lack of image. Did he need to say something bad about him? You just stood there, with a natural villain image. I don't know how you got to be a model of Fishman Street.

"Hahahahahaha, you are just jealous of Jinbe. You stay on Fishman Island every day, and you can't compare to me who is out there training freely. Those brats were all taught obedient by me, hahahahaha!"

Arlong didn't care about Jinpei's words at all, and turned around to mock him.

"Go away, I don't need to be jealous of you." "You are only a few years older than me, why are you pretending to be senior, and you're still me!" Arlong and Jinbei started arguing as if no one was around, and this scene immediately made the members of the Red Hair Pirates look at Shanks and Buggy, at this moment, it was just like that moment.
