"May I ask what brings this esteemed admiral to my Fishman Island?"

Shark Star walked up to the naval warship and saw Zhao Hai in the naval uniform of a vice admiral from the Navy Headquarters.

Although he was surprised that Zhao Hai could become a vice admiral at such a young age, he was more worried.

The Straw Hat crew, with bounties on their hands, had only been visiting Fishman Island for a short time, and now the Marine Headquarters has already dispatched its core combat force so quickly.

This situation inevitably leads SharkStar to make such a connection, as it is arguably the most reasonable speculation.

"Vice Admiral Vergo's naval uniform is really useful. Even the eldest prince of Fishman Island would be intimidated by my imposing and domineering figure!"

Seeing Shark Star hesitate for a long time when it looked at him, Zhao Hai felt very proud and unconsciously shook the naval general's uniform on his body.

"This general has important business to attend to, so hurry up and clear the way!"

Seeing that Shark Star had been intimidated by him, Zhao Hai responded to Shark Star's question with obvious displeasure.

They acted like they owned the place, completely forgetting who was the master here!

"Ok?"

Startled by Zhao Hai's sudden shout, Shark Star was slightly taken aback, but quickly recovered.

With a respectful wave to Zhao Hai, he welcomed Zhao Hai and the other "naval elders" into the interior of Fishman Island.

Meanwhile, Shark Star led them into the interior of Fishman Island.

Zhao Hai also noticed that Shark Star secretly said a few words to a guard next to him, and then the guard quickly left the group.

However, Zhao Hai seemed oblivious to this, leisurely enjoying the scenery inside the Fishman Island.

The various enormous coral reef-style palaces shimmer with mesmerizing colorful lights, making everything seem like a dream.

The people beside Zhao Hai, including Ade, were all mesmerized by the beautiful scenery, their faces filled with rapture.

Meanwhile, Shark Star, seeing Zhao Hai and the others captivated by the scenery before them, was secretly delighted.

The longer Zhao Hai and his crew are delayed on the road, the higher the chance that Luffy and his crew will escape.

Shark Star thinks this way entirely because he doesn't understand Luffy and his crew's nature. It's not an easy task to obediently let Luffy and Zoro, those two carefree guys, escape.

If Zhao Hai knew what Shark Star was planning, he would definitely "despise" his naivety.

Back when Zhao Hai first met Luffy and his crew, he was just as naive and innocent, but the outcome is something that cannot be told to outsiders.

And the results did indeed go in the exact opposite direction of the predictions made by Shark Star.

At Kemi's house on Fishman Island.

Shark Star's guards came running up breathlessly to tell Luffy and his crew that the Marines were coming to capture them, but Luffy and his crew completely ignored them.

Those who were lying down continued to lie down and sleep as usual, and those who were eating still showed no signs of stopping...

"Hey Hey hey……"

Seeing Luffy and the others' attitude, the guards were inwardly screaming.

Nami, who was chatting and laughing with Robin, noticed that the guard's expression was a little abnormal.

He yelled at Luffy in an annoyed tone, "Hey! Luffy, can't you at least change your expression a little? This guy rarely comes to inform us!"

"Ha ha……"

At this moment, Luffy mischievously made what he thought was a funny face at the guard.

Because the guard's face not only lacked any smile, but his expression was even more unpleasant.

Zoro, who was watching this scene, would not let the opportunity to strike Luffy slip by.

He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Luffy! Stop trying to scare people with that rubber face of yours! Look, this guy is scared by you!"

The guard listened to Luffy and Zoro's conversation and then looked at the other members who remained completely still.

He knew it was now very important for him to emphasize the importance of the incident to Luffy and the others.

"Naval Headquarters has sent a vice admiral to arrest you!"

The guard shouted.

"Oh!"

Luffy and Zoro responded softly, and then fell silent.

The guard, who looked constipated, was left standing there alone.

Led by Shark Star, Zhao Hai met King Neptune, the sea god of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, and Queen Otohime in the Dragon Palace before returning to the room that had been arranged for him.

After saying goodbye to Zhao Hai, Shark Star left Zhao Hai's room with a puzzled look on his face.

Just now, Zhao Hai didn't say what he was doing on Fishman Island, nor did he give them any instructions, which really made Shark Star quite puzzled about Zhao Hai's purpose.

Because Zhao Hai doesn't look like he's here on official business at all; he looks more like a leisurely tourist.

"If all of this is a facade he deliberately put on, then he's incredibly cunning!"

Thinking of this possibility, Shark Star quickened his pace and headed straight for Lukemi's residence.

After dismissing Ade and the others, Zhao Hai took out his Den Den Mushi (snail phone) from his body in the room.

At this moment, he was no longer as calm and collected as before; instead, he had an excited expression on his face.

Upon arriving in the world of One Piece, Zhao Hai doesn't have many true friends.

But the natural comfort he felt with Luffy and his crew was something he could never forget.

Some even yearn to join Luffy and his crew in challenging the New World.

However, Zhao Hai did not intend to do so, because his current situation was much more dangerous than Luffy and his crew.

Luffy and his crew are just one of many rising stars among pirate crews, while Zhao Hai has been put on the world's kill list.

The last time Doflamingo took action was a good example, and the CP agents of the World Government's intelligence network are even more omnipresent.

Therefore, to avoid a tragedy, Zhao Hai would never go on an adventure in the New World with Luffy and his crew.

of course!

There was another, more important reason that was hindering Zhao Hai's progress: the system Xiao Jin's "travel ten thousand miles".

Your mother's "traveling ten thousand miles" mission has caused a lot of harm.

The system, Xiao Jin, had specially arranged a "tourism" route for Zhao Hai, the starting point of which was also Fishman Island.

However, their next route was not to the New World, but to wander around the first half of the Grand Line.

Therefore, in order to complete the great task of upgrading and advancing, Zhao Hai had no choice but to harden his heart and go against Luffy and the others.

"It's been quite a while since we last met!"

Looking at the Den Den Mushi in his hand, Zhao Hai unconsciously pictured Luffy and Zoro.

Swish!

The next moment, Zhao Hai appeared high in the sky above Fishman Island.

“bele…bele…”

Calling out to Luffy via Den Den Mushi, Zhao Hai used his Swallow Transformation to traverse the entire island.

At the same time, Zhao Hai's ears twitched, his mind became calm, and he listened carefully to the sounds around him.

Meanwhile, at Kemi's residence.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

Shark Star looked on in surprise as Luffy and the others hadn't left yet.

The guard who had summoned Shark Star to deliver the message also looked at him with a worried and uneasy expression.

Luffy and his crew noticed Shark Star's arrival but only slightly raised their heads before ignoring him.

"Ok?"

Seeing Luffy and the others' performance, Shark Star's expression was exactly the same as the guards' earlier.

Shark Star was extremely embarrassed, and at the same time, he was very puzzled by Luffy and the others.

“bele…bele…”

Just as Shark Star was at a loss, a series of Den Den Mushi sounds, which sounded like heavenly music to Shark Star, suddenly rang out.

But there's no need for Shark Star to tell you that. The moment Luffy heard the Den Den Mushi ring, he stared at it with eager eyes.

However, Luffy did not answer the call immediately because it was something Zhao Hai had arranged with him last time.

Luffy didn't know why Zhao Hai had made such a strange agreement, but he only knew that he should wait.

Zoro and the others, who knew the truth, naturally did not urge them.

However, some people are unaware of the truth, such as Shark Star, who is completely bewildered at this moment.

Seeing that Luffy hadn't answered the Den Den Mushi for a long time, Shark Star "kindly" pointed to the Den Den Mushi next to Luffy and said, "Luffy, you should pick up the receiver first!"

"Hehe, I know!" Luffy laughed.

"Luffy, you're actually considered someone who can't even use a Den Den Mushi? Looks like the title of the biggest idiot in our pirate crew is definitely yours, hahaha..."

Zoro, Nami, and the others laughed heartily at Shark Star's answer.

"Hahaha……"

Just as Shark Star was confused by the laughter of the crowd, another burst of wild laughter rang out from outside.

Swish!

Bang!

Then a group of people appeared outside the door, and the door was kicked open.

At the same time, a majestic and extraordinary figure appeared beside them.

"you……"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Shark Star was terrified.

"Please, please, please! I'm begging you like crazy!!!"
