One Piece: Lord of Disaster.

Chapter 287 The Demon King Descends on Fishman Island! A Cast of Actors Mobilized

A small submarine is diving into the deep sea.

Inside the cabin, Roya stood leisurely by a porthole, manipulating the water flow outside to tease the giant deep-sea fish that swam by.

The big fish had no idea what was happening. The seawater, which used to embrace them like a mother, had become incredibly mischievous, sometimes grabbing their tails and sometimes pulling their heads, forcing them to spin around.

Is Jabba still on Fishman Island?

Luo Ya spoke without turning his head.

"Yes."

Behind him, Abel nodded calmly. "I just contacted Morgans, and he said that Jabba has been staying on Fishman Island all these years and hasn't left."

"Are you waiting for me?"

Roya stopped teasing the fish and said with some emotion, "Jabbar is still an honest man."

Without a doubt, Jabba stayed on that island because of Poseidon. Since he knew Poseidon's true identity, the Roger Pirates were naturally wary of him obtaining this ancient weapon.

That's why Jabba stayed on Fishman Island.

That should be the case, right? It should have been confirmed a long time ago that Shirahoshi is the current Sea King, which is why she left it behind, right?

It can't just be because Fishman Island has many beautiful mermaid ladies, right?
"Should we take care of that guy, Boss?"

Abel's tone was completely calm, as if the guy he was about to eliminate wasn't the third-in-command on the Pirate King's ship, but some insignificant stray dog.

"If you wish, I will cut off his head for you."

"Not in a hurry."

Luo Ya waved his hand slightly, "Let's see what he has to say first."

"Yes."

Abel nodded respectfully.

As the submarine continued its descent, deeper still, into the ocean below...

A strange sound suddenly rang out from the pitch-black sea.

"The vanished new king has reappeared; has he come for the sake of us, his king?"

“The new king has come with malicious intent; we must not let him get close to the king.”

"Stop him! Stop that demon king who's attacking!"

In the deep sea, enormous shadows converged and moved towards the upper waters, instantly creating huge turbulent currents.

"Ok?"

Inside the submarine, Roya suddenly looked up, his brows furrowed on the handsome young man's face. "Someone is slandering me behind my back again? Demon King, who are you talking about!"

"Someone?"

Enel, who had followed Roya to Fishman Island like Abel, suddenly focused his mind and, with the aid of electromagnetic waves, spread his Observation Haki.

It can be said that he could perceive everything, from the surface of the sea to the bottom of the ocean, in that instant.

but.

"I didn't hear anything."

Enel looked at Roya's retreating figure with some surprise. "Boss, is someone really talking?"

His Observation Haki is excellent at listening to sounds, but at this moment, he couldn't hear any sound at all.

"Oh?"

Luo Ya, who was annoyed by the slander, paused slightly, then remembered that he hadn't used his Observation Haki, and that his Observation Haki couldn't hear people talking in the distance.

So this is—

Luo Ya had already guessed it instantly.

His Observation Haki immediately spread out.

"Oh!"

A smile flickered across his face at that moment, and Roya chuckled as he spoke, "A bunch of fish trying to stop me?"

"fish?"

Enel paused slightly, then he was instantly stunned. "Sea Kings! So many Sea Kings have gathered here! What's going on?!"

"They were probably knights who launched a desperate charge against the Demon King to prevent the princess from being taken away."

Luo Ya said with interest.

So it was about listening to the voice of all things.

As you evolve, does this ability also evolve?

interesting.

Now we can hear the sounds of sea kings very clearly.

So that means we can already communicate with the Sea Kings, right?
But what's the use of that?

Is it to use Shirahoshi to subdue the Sea Kings?
Would you consider this a basic version of Aquaman's abilities?

Thinking about it that way, it's quite interesting.

"Boss!"

Enel's voice had turned serious. "What should we do?"

If it were on the sea, he wouldn't care how many sea kings there were.

The quality of these fish is questionable.

It doesn't take much effort to turn them all into grilled fish.

However, this is in the deep sea, and he cannot use his abilities at will. He cannot control the transmission of lightning in the water, and if he is not careful, the ship will be blown up.

Roya did not answer; instead, he raised his hand to signal Enel to be quiet.

Because he heard the voices of those deep-sea monsters again.

"Go back! Demon King, do not come near our king!"

"This deep sea does not welcome your arrival..."

"Oh wow, the local sea kings are really not very friendly."

Roya chuckled and said, "Want to stop me? Then try it."

His voice, though barely perceptible, was transmitted through his ability to manipulate sound waves to a certain extent.

then.

"You...you can understand what we're saying?"

"How is this possible? Could it be that you are Joy Boy of this era?"

His words were filled with utter astonishment.

So, was Joey Boy able to understand it back then?
"No matter who you are, you are not allowed to come near our king!"

"Go back! Demon King, go back to your world!"

Accompanied by a sound that only Roya could hear, one enormous creature after another slowly emerged from the dark depths of the sea.

Wow! What's that?!

Bege, who had also accompanied Roya to Fishman Island, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "So many Sea Kings, and they're huge!!"

Even Abel couldn't help but feel a little alarmed at this moment.

Those sea monsters that emerged from the deep sea below were indeed enormous!

Each one was at least over a kilometer long, with the leading ones even approaching four or five kilometers in size!

The submarine was as small as a mouse compared to these monsters; a slight bump would have shattered it to pieces.

"Boss!"

Becky screamed in a panic, "What should we do now?"

The boss is indeed incredibly powerful, but they can't ignore the deep sea!

"go back!!"

Seemingly noticing Becky's panic, the Sea Kings issued a final warning.

"Otherwise, we will launch an attack..."

"An attack? Perfect."

Roya simply smiled and nodded, "The Demon King is going to kidnap the princess now, you should come and stop him!"

On his forehead, a pair of spiral horns meandered upwards.

Then, a massive figure suddenly appeared out of thin air in the seawater beneath the submarine.

"To deal with you monsters, of course we need the King of Monsters!"

Roya casually gave the order, "Go, Typhon."

A hundred-headed evil dragon appeared out of nowhere in the deep sea, roaring.

Its roar alone was enough to create a huge eddy in the deep sea.

A sea king directly facing the vortex was blown away by the vortex.

Then, the king of monsters in Greek mythology suddenly swept across the sea.

Even in the deep sea, and despite being over 100 meters tall, Typhon was still as fast as lightning.

No, this monster itself is wrapped in lightning!

Sharp claws suddenly slashed across the dark depths of the sea in a sharp arc.

Immediately, a tremendous scream echoed throughout the deep sea.

One of the sea kings had already been severed by Typhon's claw.

To be honest, Typhon's size looked rather small compared to this monster. The visual effect at this moment was like a kitten splitting an adult in two with one paw!
Because the two sides are simply not on the same level!

Even now, Typhon grabbed the head of a sea king with one hand and its neck with the other, and with a strong tug, he tore off the head of this sea king, which was more than ten times its size.

Then, the King of Monsters roared in another direction, and a gale swept out, stirring up the seawater and turning it into a huge waterspout, which instantly pierced through the sea king.

It wasn't over yet; the waterspout, undeterred, tore apart several more sea monsters behind it simultaneously.

"Roar!!"

Typhon roared wildly as it traversed the deep sea.

One sea king after another was torn apart by him.

Only the largest sea kings were able to put up a slight resistance, but they only managed to hold on with their thick skin and flesh. In an instant, they were torn in huge wounds, and after two more attacks, they could only turn into pieces in vain.

This was a blatant massacre, and the screams of the sea kings filled Roya's ears.

A few minutes later, it finally quieted down.

All the sea kings had been reduced to fragments. The deep sea was now stained crimson with blood.

"What a pity, it seems you can't stop me then."

Luo Ya chuckled, "No one can stop it."

The Monster King, having killed all the monsters that blocked his way, returned and carefully carried the submarine, accelerating as it descended into the deep sea.

Since we've already summoned it, let's just let it accelerate the submarine.

at the same time.

Fishman Island.

Dragon Palace City.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaah!!"

A sharp cry suddenly shattered the silence of the castle floating above the Fishman Island.

"Shirahoshi? What's wrong? Shirahoshi!"

A woman with golden hair, wearing an orange robe with a fish-scale pattern, and a gentle face strode into her daughter's room.

On the bed, which is too spacious for most people, a cute little girl is crying loudly.

This is a girl with pink hair, who looks about twelve or thirteen years old. Her long pink hair is tied into two buns that look like rabbit ears on top of her head.

The girl has a dreamlike, adorable appearance, but also a dreamlike, enormous size.

The blonde woman, whose height was no different from that of an average person, looked as small as a baby in front of her.

However, the two are mother and daughter.

"What's wrong, Shirahoshi?"

The blonde woman, Neptune's wife, Queen Otohime of the Dragon Palace, climbed into bed, quickly went to her daughter's side, and patted her lower back with concern, "Did you have a nightmare?"

"Mom! How scary!"

The girl rubbed her eyes with both hands, large tears streaming uncontrollably down her face. "There are so many screams! They're telling me that a terrible demon king has come!"

"Demon King?"

Queen Otohime paused, then instinctively asked, "Was it a nightmare you had, Shirahoshi?"

It wasn't that she didn't trust her daughter; it was just that the title "Demon King" seemed to only appear in the fairy tales that Shirahoshi had told her when she was little.

"No! It's not a dream!!"

The girl suddenly clutched her chest in pain; her dreamlike, exquisite face turned pale with inexplicable agony.
"I can still hear...they, they are wailing in pain..."

Princess Otohime's expression immediately turned serious.

She is a natural-born user of Observation Haki.

It possesses an exceptionally unique Observation Haki.

They can easily sense other people's emotions.

At that moment, she could clearly sense the fear and unease in her daughter's heart.

What exactly happened?

Could it be—just as Mr. Yama said… that Shirahoshi, as the mermaid princess, has truly awakened that ability?

Is this really the child?
Are the sea kings talking to her?

wrong!

Not speaking!

It's a warning!

who is it?

Demon King!

Who is coming?

No!

We need to tell Mr. Shan about this as soon as possible and follow his advice!
same moment.

Fishman Island, Coral Hill.

This is a famous tourist destination on Fishman Island, and the most prosperous port town in the Dragon Palace Kingdom.

The most famous café in this area is called Mermaid Café.

The coffee shop is run by a beautiful mermaid named Shirley.

She is also a well-known prophet on Fishman Island.

She wasn't just pretending to be a fortune teller; she was a true prophet with a 100% accuracy rate in her predictions.

However, perhaps because she had witnessed too much misfortune through prophecy, she gradually stopped predicting the future for others.

Of course, she would occasionally try to predict the future and take precautions against possible disasters.

Today, the same is true.

In the bustling coffee shop, a large, pale-skinned mermaid sat behind the bar, intently watching the crystal ball in front of her.

then.

Boom!
The crystal ball suddenly fell to the ground.

The coffee shop staff and customers who were dining all instinctively looked over in their direction.

Then everyone saw that the already pale face of the most famous prophet of Fishman Island was now completely bloodless, her whole body was trembling, and her forehead and back were completely soaked with cold sweat.

"Disaster! Disaster is coming! Quickly tell Neptune, whatever you do, don't refuse him, whatever you do, don't refuse that demon king!!"

"..."

The café fell silent instantly.

Later.

Mr. Shan, the third-in-command of the Roger Pirates, arrived in a hurry. Looking at Princess Shirahoshi with tears streaming down her face, he spoke with a grave expression.
"Princess Shirahoshi, tell me everything that just happened!"

So the little princess repeated everything, sobbing.

Jabba immediately pursed his lips.

Mr. Shan,

Somewhat alarmed, Neptune, the ruler of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, said urgently, "Shirahoshi, she really—"

"Ah."

Jabba nodded solemnly, "This child has indeed awakened the power of Poseidon!"

"I never expected it to actually be this child!"

He was also somewhat alarmed.

Is this little princess, who has always been timid, actually the vessel for the Sea King?

The power to destroy the entire world resides within this tender body!
"So, those sounds were from sea kings?"

Neptune's voice suddenly became more urgent, "Was their warning also true?"

"It's probably true."

Jabba took a deep breath. "It must be Roya!"

In his mind, the only one who could be called a Demon King, to the point that even the Sea Kings had to issue a warning, was Roya!

It can't be Im, can it?
How could that guy possibly make a special trip to Fishman Island?

"Roya!"

Neptune's body trembled instantly... his fish-like form shuddered, and his face turned extremely ugly. "The Calamity of Roya!"

He came from that era himself, so he naturally knows what that name means!
Even Tiger had made a special trip to the New World to avoid angering Roya.

"Then let's quickly hide Shirahoshi!"

Neptune quickly interjected, "That Roya guy is extremely dangerous, isn't he? Wouldn't it be terrible if Shirahoshi fell into his hands?"

"no!"

Jabba shook his head immediately, "In that case, Fishman Island would be doomed!"

"Shirahoshi's existence is no secret. Hiding her away would only make things more obvious and reveal her special nature to Roya! Roya isn't stupid!"

He said solemnly, "The situation might not be so bad. Shirahoshi's ability only just awakened today, so Roya shouldn't have known beforehand!"

Although Roya must have slaughtered some Sea Kings, he probably couldn't understand their language!
"He might have come because of his previous contact with Tiger!"

"Poseidon must be the mermaid princess, but the mermaid princess is not necessarily Poseidon!"

"As long as Princess Shirahoshi doesn't show anything special, we can fool Roya!"

Jabba looked at the sobbing princess with a serious expression. "Princess Shirahoshi, now, your uncle needs to train your acting skills!"

The little princess looked at him with a somewhat bewildered expression.

Then, Jabba turned to Queen Otohime beside him and said, "Your Highness, when necessary, we'll have to rely on your special abilities!"

This princess can forcefully influence others with her emotions, so even if the little princess's acting skills are not up to par, she can use her abilities to forcefully improve the little princess's acting skills.

"it is good!"

Queen Otohime nodded solemnly.

"If we want to protect Shirahoshi and Fishman Island, everything must remain as normal!"

Jabba said seriously, "We can't let Roya discover any flaws!"

"Report! Your Majesty, Jinbe and Tiger have arrived!"

The guard rushed in to report.

"Just in time!"

Jaba quickly said, "Let them in right away!"

These two guys are indispensable for putting on a good show!
However, Tiger, who arrived in a hurry, immediately said, "Neptune, you've heard... Oh, Mr. Mountain, you're here too! Are you here because of Shirley's prophecy as well?"

"prophecy?"

Jabba was taken aback; of course, he knew of the great prophet who was always right.

Seeing Tiger and Jinbe's anxious expressions, a sense of foreboding rose from the bottom of his heart.

"What prophecy?"

He subconsciously pressed for an answer.

Jinbe took a deep breath and said seriously, "Lady Shirley said that disaster is coming!"

"what?"

Shirley's predictions are 100% accurate!
