Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

Neptune, who had just been lecturing the mermaid guards, changed his expression upon hearing this news.

He had known before that Hody Jones harbored malicious intentions, but he hadn't ordered his capture because he knew Hody Jones was also acting in the name of the merfolk.

But what happened now made Neptune extremely regretful. Hody Jones rebelled, but he had to choose to launch the attack when Chiga arrived. Wasn't this clearly aimed at Chiga?

If we anger Chiga, will Fishman Island still have the bright future foretold in the prophecy? Hody Jones is a complete madman!

Jinbe, also furious, stood up from his seat and went to Neptune's side, saying in a deep voice,

"Your Majesty, let me go. It's my fault for not educating those guys in Fishman Street properly."

Neptune agreed without hesitation. His understanding of Hody Jones's strength was still based on his previous experience. He thought that he, Jinbe, and some soldiers would be enough to quell the rebellion, so he didn't want to trouble Chiga.

However, Chiga, who had been silent from the beginning, suddenly spoke up.

"I'll go too. That Hody Jones is insisting on proving himself with my head. How can I be absent?"

Chapter 180 The Demise of the New Fishman Pirates

In the square, apart from the tens of thousands of fishmen from the new Fishman Pirates, the crowd of onlookers had already begun to sway from side to side due to Hody Jones's speech.

This is also because of the repeated incidents of humans capturing slaves on Fishman Island; it would be impossible for them not to have any resentment towards humans.

However, King Neptune had assured them that the Fish-Man Island would be transformed after the arrival of the Purple Scale General.

Moreover, Hody Jones's reputation is polarized, so his words are somewhat unreliable.

Hody Jones had anticipated that this group would waver, but it didn't matter. He never thought he could get these people to work for him just by talking.

His biggest trump card is the surge in strength he gained after taking the deadly drug ES. He is confident that once he shows his strength, these people will immediately defect to the New Fishman Pirates.

Imagining himself leading the merfolk and mermaids to conquer the land, a sickly flush appeared on Hody Jones's pale face.

He raised his arms and shouted,

"My fellow countrymen! Watch, soon I will take the heads of King Neptune and that human, and our Fishman Island will be reborn!!!"

"Crack, snap, snap."

The expected applause did not ring out; only a few crisp claps echoed across the square, sounding unusually harsh, each one like a slap to his shark-like face.

Hody Jones turned around abruptly and immediately saw Chihiro and the others at the entrance of the square.

Chika stood at the head of the table, clapping her hands rhythmically. Seeing Hody Jones looking over, she stopped clapping and said with a smile,

"What a brilliant speech! You've really got me all fired up! What? You're not going to continue?"

Upon seeing Chiga, everyone in the square, from ordinary citizens to members of the Fishman Pirates, was shocked, and a look of fear involuntarily appeared on their faces.

They all witnessed the moment when Chiga first arrived at Fishman Island, a scene they would never forget.

Jinbe glared at Hody Jones, who was standing on the platform. He wished he could smash the guy off the platform and hand him over to Chiga to deal with.

He shouted,

"Hody, you madman! Do you know that your actions will lead Fishman Island to destruction?!"

Faced with Jinbe's questioning, Hody's fear vanished instantly. He chuckled dismissively and said sarcastically,

"Jinbe, you still think you're the boss of Fishman City? Look at what you've done all these years, acting as a dog for humans, watching them persecute your fellow humans, and now you're letting humans swagger into Ryugu Palace. You really are a good boss!!"

"What do you know?! I'm doing this for the future of Fishman Island!"

"What nonsense about the future! The future of Fishman Island can only be controlled by the Fishman race themselves!!"

Jinbe, an honest man, was so angry at Hody Jones that his face turned red. If Chiga hadn't been there, he would have rushed over long ago.

Chiga listened to their conversation from the side, but the more he listened, the more something seemed off to him. He felt like Hody Jones was turning into the protagonist of some shonen anime.

Shirahoshi stood behind Chika, feeling a pang of pity for Jinbe's discomfiture. She tugged at Chika's sleeve and whispered...

"Lord Senga, could you please help Uncle Jinbe? He's so pitiful!"

Chiga turned back and gave Shirahoshi a reassuring smile, but when he turned away again, there was no trace of a smile on his face, and a dangerous glint flashed in his Rinnegan eyes.

On the high platform, Hody Jones, seeing Jinbe rendered speechless by his barrage of words, felt smug. He then turned his attention to Chiga and continued his verbal assault.

"And you, you damned human, you..."

puff!

The sound stopped abruptly. Hody Jones looked down in disbelief at the arm piercing his chest and said, trembling,

"Wh...when..."

Qian He, who was just at the entrance of the square, is now standing on the high platform. He looks at Hody Jones, whose face is ashen, and says calmly,

"I'm tired of your performance, so just go die."

After saying that, Chika pulled her arm out of Hody Jones's body, drawing a large amount of blood.

Hody Jones immediately knelt down in front of Chiga, while the new Fishman Pirates officers standing beside him were stunned into silence.

The people in the square didn't dare to breathe, and the atmosphere instantly fell into a deathly silence.

Neptune and Jinbe at the entrance were also surprised by the speed Chiga displayed. Jinbe, in particular, who was the main force of Fishman Island, didn't even realize when Chiga had disappeared from his side.

Keep in mind that Chiga didn't even use elemental transformation just now; he unleashed such astonishing speed purely through his absolute physical strength.

When Shirahoshi saw the bloody scene on the platform, she immediately covered her mouth with both hands. She couldn't believe that the Chiga-sama who had just been smiling at her was the same Chiga-sama who had punched Hody Jones through the stomach on the platform.

Chika looked down at Hody Jones, who was kneeling in front of him, his gaze icy, as if he were looking at a lowly ant.

Those new Fishman Pirates executives were finally about to make their move. There was no other way; if things continued like this, their leader would bleed to death.

They shouted to bolster their courage, and then each unleashed their abilities to attack Chiga.

However, Chiga didn't even glance at their attack. With a thought, he unleashed Shinra Tensei, and the so-called cadres were instantly reduced to a pile of rotten flesh floating in the air by the powerful repulsive force.

The flesh and blood were shattered the moment they were about to hit Chiga, and the rest landed on Hody Jones, who was kneeling on the ground, staining his shiny bald head red.

That wasn't all. Chiga's Rinnegan transformed into two dazzling purple bolts of lightning, and the people in the plaza were horrified to find that the entire plaza had suddenly gone dark.

They looked up and saw countless black thunderclouds appearing out of thin air beneath the bubble membrane, resembling the end of the world.

It's important to know that Fishman Island is located at a depth of 10,000 meters in the ocean, where there are no clouds, let alone so many thunderclouds.

This unusual sight filled them with fear.

Compared to those who were unaware of the truth, Jinbe knew very well that this was Chiga's ability; he had witnessed it firsthand at Marine Headquarters.

That's the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, which is said to be the strongest Logia-type Devil Fruit!

Thinking of how terrifying this ability was, Jinbe subconsciously swallowed. Fish living in water have an innate fear of the power of lightning, let alone Chiga, who is almost an incarnation of lightning.

The deafening thunder continued to rumble from above, and everyone held their breath, not daring to make a sound.

A soft whisper came from the high platform.

"Wan Lei."

The lightning accumulated in the thunderclouds suddenly poured down towards the ground as if soldiers had received a command. With a series of dense thunderclaps, tens of thousands of fishmen on the square were instantly vaporized.

These fish-men are all members of the New Fish-Man Pirates, who once harbored "grand" ideals and wanted to follow Hody Jones to become the new masters of Fish-Man Island.

Now, however, it was reduced to ashes scattered in the air amidst thick bolts of purple lightning.

Thus, the New Fishman Pirates finally followed in the footsteps of the Arlong Pirates and were completely wiped out!

Chapter 181 The truth of the matter

Hody Jones' years of hard work vanished in a single moment from Chiga's decision, leaving him utterly devastated.

Even the pain of having his abdomen pierced was less than a tenth of the heartache he was experiencing now.

Hody Jones looked ashen-faced. Under the influence of his emotions, he began to age rapidly, and his once firm and elastic skin was instantly covered with wrinkles.

With the added injury to his abdomen, he was now practically halfway to his death.

Even so, Chiga showed Hody Jones not the slightest bit of pity.

This guy is a born scumbag who seeks revenge on society. Arlong is a little better, at least he cares a lot about his fellow merfolk.

What's wrong with this guy? He keeps talking about the Fishman Island, but he doesn't actually care about its safety at all.

In the anime, he wanted to make Noah, the "Boat of Oath," crash straight into Fishman Island, completely disregarding his so-called compatriots.

From the moment Chiga saw him upon landing on the island, she had no intention of letting him live past the day.

The reason he was spared was because Chiga still needed to use him to say some things.

The time was right. Qianhe bent down, grabbed Hody Jones's no longer smooth bald head, and whispered...

"Do you have any last words?"

Hody Jones shakily raised his head and looked at Chika's face in front of him, his eyes revealing endless hatred and fear.

He was utterly defeated. In front of this man, all his actions seemed like a clown performance, which had no meaning other than pleasing Chika.

Even if he had taken the deadly drug ES and gained unimaginable power, it would still be a joke.

Although Chiga's face remained calm and expressionless, Hody Jones saw it as blatant mockery.

They mocked his weak strength and ridiculous ideals!

Tears welled up uncontrollably in Hody Jones's old eyes, streaming down his wrinkled face and making him look somewhat disgusting.

This guy, who was so crazy, actually cried in front of Chiga.

Chiga's eyes revealed a hint of disdain. He had thought this guy would stick his neck out a bit more, but he hadn't expected him to break down so easily.

Shaking his head, Chiga felt that this guy had completely broken down and it was impossible to expect him to say anything.

However, Chiga had no intention of letting Hody Jones off so easily. He grabbed Hody Jones's head, making his dead fish eyes face him, and used illusion magic on him.

This guy's mental defenses are practically nonexistent now; Chiga only used a very basic illusion technique and he fell for it.

Under the illusion, Hody Jones released his hands from his wounds, letting the blood gush out. He slowly rose from the ground and faced the people in the square.

Below, King Neptune and Jinbe both frowned at Hody Jones's actions, wondering what kind of trouble this guy was up to now, given his current state.

Looking at Hody Jones's incredibly pitiful appearance, Bai Xing felt a pang of pity in her large eyes; that was just her personality—overly kind.

I just wonder if she will still feel any sympathy for Hody Jones after hearing what he said next.
