This action left Jinbe and the other fish-men in the Sun Pirates looking puzzled.
While their leader, Tiger, didn't hate humans as much as other fishmen, he certainly didn't have any affection for them either.
Yet, Tiger was surprisingly enthusiastic towards this human they were meeting for the first time.
Tiger was naturally very happy to see Wood again after so long. At the same time, he quickly realized that his behavior was a bit inappropriate, so he quickly put his arm around Wood's shoulder and explained to Jinbe and the others.
"This is Brother Wood. The reason Yasuo didn't die in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise is because he saved him."
Yasuo is our Sun Pirates' benefactor, and Brother Wood is Yasuo's savior, so naturally he's also our Sun Pirates' benefactor, and a friend of our Fish-Man race.
With Tiger's personal endorsement, the fishmen of the Sun Pirates' gazes toward Wood, filled with doubt and displeasure, vanished instantly.
Yasuo, the Fishman Sword Saint, is not only an idol in Fishman Street, but also an object of worship for many fishmen in the "Sun Pirates".
There's no other reason than that the other party is a true powerhouse, and extremely loyal and righteous. Without him, there would be no "Sun Pirates" today.
He dared to kill a World Noble and single-handedly held off the World Government's pursuers. Even Arlong, the arrogant member of the Sun Pirates, had to admit his superiority over Yasuo.
In fact, because of Yasuo, such a powerful swordsman, many people in the fish-man race have given up their innate physical advantages and turned to swordsmanship.
This demonstrates the extent of Yasuo's influence among the Murloc race.
Previously, the members of the Sun Pirates only found Tiger but not Yasuo, and assumed that Yasuo had died in Mary Geoise. Tiger was only worried and saddened, so he did not tell the truth.
But unexpectedly, Yasuo actually didn't die, but was saved by the human in front of him.
Chapter 167 Reunion, Target: Judiciary Island!
Fishman Sword Saint Yasuo saved the Sun Pirates, and Wood saved Yasuo, so indirectly, Wood also saved the Sun Pirates.
Therefore, at this moment, the fishmen of the Sun Pirates naturally couldn't bring themselves to hate Wood, even though he was a human they disliked.
“I know very well that many of you dislike or even hate humans, and so do I.”
But what I want to say is that Brother Wood is special. Not only is he a close friend of Yasuo, but the reason he asked us to go and help is actually to save our compatriots.
So this time, I hope you will temporarily put aside your prejudices and fight together with Brother Wood and the people around him.
The fishmen in the "Sun Pirates" actually have two factions, and they are usually very united.
However, they often have two attitudes toward humans. Jinbe and his group of fishmen have no good feelings toward humans, but they don't hate them either.
Arlong is a member of the fish-men faction, but they are extremely hostile to humans. Human pirates or marines who fall into their hands are usually either killed or maimed.
Wood was Yasuo's benefactor and friend, so Aaron naturally wouldn't cause trouble for Wood. However, the way he looked at Franky, Russ, and the others was not so friendly.
Franky and Russ, upon seeing the towering merfolk before them, also looked extremely uncomfortable.
Franky, who had always thought that fishmen were kind and friendly, was modeled after Tom. However, Arlong's sharp teeth and aggressive eyes completely changed Franky's perception of fishmen.
As for Ruth and the others, they were completely shocked and terrified when they saw Tiger and his group.
They were naval personnel who had previously worked on compiling information on criminals and pirates from around the world, so they were naturally familiar with Tiger and his crew.
This is a truly big shot! Although Tiger's bounty is only a few hundred million Berries, it's nothing compared to what this guy has done.
Criminals with bounties personally placed on their heads by the World Government are not even in the same league as pirates with bounties placed on their heads by the Navy.
Ruth was even a little puzzled. First there was Nico Robin, the demon child, and now there was Fisher Tiger, the fishman hero who caused a ruckus in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
Their captain seems to have a particularly good relationship with these criminals wanted by the world government.
Surely one day, when they encounter Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, who is wanted by the World Government and is known as the most dangerous criminal in the world, their captain will be able to go up and say a few words to him?
The arrival of the Sun Pirates greatly increased the fighting strength of Wood and his group.
Currently, our side has Wood, Tiger, Jinbe, hundreds of elite fish-men, and ten former junior naval officers such as Russ.
Franky and Iceberg, due to their age, can only drive the Sea Train at best; they are not considered combatants at all.
As for Enies Lobby, the current fighting force includes Garp, Momousagi, a guilty jury, two giants, two CP9s, the Hound Corps, and more than 10,000 ordinary marines.
In terms of numbers, there is a difference of almost a hundredfold, especially on Enies Lobby, where not only are there more people, but the enemy's top combat power is also very strong.
"Brother Wood, are you sure you can hold off Marine Hero Garp and Momousagi all by yourself? Don't you need my help?"
Tiger's strength should be much greater than Jinbe's, otherwise Jinbe wouldn't willingly call Tiger "boss".
Even Tiger couldn't help but feel a little worried when he heard that the opposing side had the famous naval hero Garp.
The fish-men generally look down on humans, believing that humans are inferior to them in every aspect, including physical strength.
However, Tiger had to admit that some of the strongest humans were special. Even though Tiger didn't pay much attention to the strong humans on the sea, he had still heard of the name of the naval hero Garp.
Tiger knew that Wood was Yasuo, the Fishman Sword Saint, and he also believed that Wood was very strong. Otherwise, he would not have been able to hold off so many pursuers from the World Government in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
But when Tiger heard that Wood wanted to stop Garp and another admiral by himself, he was still a little worried. After all, Garp was the man who had driven the Pirate King Roger to the brink of defeat several times.
"I didn't intend to defeat Vice Admiral Garp and his team. If I just wanted to stall them, I don't think there would be much of a problem."
Of course, I can't hold out for very long, so I hope you can break through the two gates on the front island of Enies Lobby as soon as possible.
If it were a real fight, Wood would naturally be no match for Garp and Gion.
No, it should be said that he can't even beat Garp, but if the opponent lets go of the sea, then it's a different story.
"If Brother Wood is really confident that he can stop Karp and that major general from headquarters on his own, then the others will be no problem for us at all."
Although the enemy has more than 10,000 marines, our "Sun Pirates" only has a little over 100 comrades.
But if it's just ordinary navy personnel, our fish-man warriors could easily take on a hundred of them.
Fishmen are physically stronger than ordinary people, but it is obviously impossible for an ordinary fishman to fight against a hundred.
The key point is that the fish-men in Tiger's "Sun Pirates" are not ordinary fish-men, but the best among the hundreds of thousands of fish-men in Fishman Town.
Leaving Jinbe aside for now, consider the fish-men that Arlong took to Nami's hometown, Orange Island. Whether it was Hachi or Chuchu, each of them could easily take on a hundred or so ordinary people.
While ordinary fish-men are stronger than ordinary humans, they are still quite powerful. For example, in the Fish-Man Island arc, Luffy's immature Conqueror's Haki stunned tens of thousands of fish-men in one breath.
On the giants' side, the Sun Pirates also raise giant sea kings, who can then be used to fight the giants.
After all the deployments were completed, that very evening the second sea train, "Rocket Man," carrying hundreds of fish-men and a dozen or so former marines including Wood, set off directly for Enies Lobby.
Meanwhile, Garp, who was on Enies Lobby, also received news from Gion that Wood was actually leading hundreds of fish-men and planning to launch a frontal attack on Enies Lobby!
First, they wreaked havoc in Mary Geoise, then they released prisoners in large numbers in Impel Down, and now they plan to kidnap criminals from Enies Lobby.
Previously, Sengoku often said that he acted without considering the consequences, but now, in Garp's eyes, Wood is simply a role model who has surpassed his teacher.
The entire world government, except for their Navy Headquarters which is Wood's home base, has been basically destroyed. Moreover, after this incident, Wood's name will surely resound throughout the entire sea.
Chapter 168 Is this all I, Arlong the Fishman, am worth?
Karp had no doubt that Wood could rescue Tom.
After all, Wood's current team is the same group that wreaked havoc in Mary Geoise back then.
Although Enies Lobby is one of the three major agencies under the World Government, the level of its garrison is naturally far inferior to that of the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
If Wood and his crew were able to leave safely after causing a ruckus in Mary Geoise, then taking over Enies Lobby would naturally be no problem.
Moreover, after this mission, Wood and the Sun Pirates will once again become famous throughout the seas, transforming them from supernova pirates into figures who can enter the eyes of the great pirates of the New World.
After all, even if Enies Lobby isn't as prestigious as Impel Down or Marine Headquarters, it still represents the face of the World Government.
If Wood and his team succeed in this operation, what's the difference between that and directly slapping the World Government in the face?
That guy from Sengoku is probably going to have another headache, and he might even get a scolding from the World Government.
But what does this have to do with Garp? The Fleet Admiral is Sengoku, and Garp is just an employee. Even if he gets criticized, it has nothing to do with him, the naval hero.
Furthermore, it was Sengoku's idea to hold back during the fight with Wood and cooperate with Wood's performance; Garp was merely following orders.
The thought that he wouldn't have to take the blame if things went wrong, and that he could even watch Sengoku suffer a setback, made Garp happy. He even looked forward to Wood and the others arriving soon.
Inside the Tower of Justice's prison, looking at the fishman Tom, who was covered in wounds and barely breathing, he was instantly filled with rage.
When Spandam learned that Franky and the others had completely disappeared after returning to Water Seven, he immediately realized he had been tricked and vented all his anger on Tom.
However, the angrier Spandam got, the happier Tom became, because it meant that his two disciples had completely broken free from Spandam's control.
The design blueprints are impossible to hand over. Now Tom is trying to end his life by starving himself every day, and to take the secret of "Pluto" to his grave.
Unfortunately, the fish-men were incredibly resilient. Although he had been fasting for several days, his thick layer of fat was still enough to keep him alive, allowing him to endure the daily torture.
Tom even regretted it, wondering why he had eaten all that fat before, now he couldn't even die quickly.
Spandam, holding a whip, lashed Tom's body as he had done a few days before, trying to force him to reveal the whereabouts of the Hades blueprints.
However, Tom wouldn't speak a few days ago, and now that he's on his deathbed, he's even less likely to utter a word.
Just as Spandam was furiously attempting to inflict further torture on Tom, the alarms on Enies Lobby suddenly went off without warning.
"Report! Report! The front island area of Enies Lobby has been attacked by an unknown force, according to intelligence relayed by surveillance Den Den Mushi."
Preliminary assessments indicate that the attackers at Enies Lobby were Navy traitor Wood, members of Tom's Workshop, and fish-men...
Shortly after the alarm sounded, a messenger from the cannon fodder navy arrived before Spandam to report.
Upon hearing about the emergency situation of the invasion of Enies Lobby, Spandam showed no sign of panic, but rather a look of surprise and delight.
He was still angry that Frankie and the others had run away, which made the old man Tom unyielding to both soft and hard approaches.
