Pirates: From Vice Captain to Lord of the Dead

Reiner made an estimate in his mind.

What's more, we have to find a place with Argiman mangroves to coat the film. By the time they get there, the flowers will probably be cold.

Hodi dared to take action because of this idea. After all, the fishmen have a natural advantage in the seabed, and he is confident that Ace and his coated ships will not be able to reach it.

I feel inexplicably confident.

"So that's it."

Luffy nodded, not knowing whether he really understood or not. He walked in front of Jinbei and said with a smile: "In that case, let us help as well."

"Are you sure, Luffy?" Zoro suddenly spoke up and said:

"I don't object, but after all, it's another country's business. We don't even know the ins and outs before we rashly intervene. You have to think it over."

"Zoro is right." Jinbei was not dissatisfied when he heard this. Instead, he nodded in agreement with Zoro's statement.

"I am very grateful for your kindness, but this is not as simple as a battle. The root cause of the civil strife has been accumulating for a long time, and I don't want to implicate you casually."

Reiner knew that the root cause of what Jinbei mentioned was still a complicated racial issue.

Be it Aaron or Hodi, even if they are defeated, there will inevitably be the next one or the next one to appear in the future.

Jinbei's current idea is to persuade Hodi and others first, and then consider fighting.

"It's okay to be involved or anything."

Luffy put his hands on his hips, looked up and smiled, and said, "I don't know what happened, but you said we are friends, right? That's reason enough."

Luffy's thoughts are not that complicated, and he can't think about complicated things.

He has only one principle in doing things, which is to follow his inner thoughts.

Pirates are not a fixed profession. Some want to kill, rob and loot, some are obsessed with finding treasures, and some just want adventure. They are all following their own hearts.

Pirates represent the freedom to follow your heart.

If one has to follow a certain behavior to be called a pirate, then being a pirate is not freedom, but a constraint.

"Luffy is right, and more importantly!"

Sanji clenched his fists with a sullen face, then suddenly looked up and shouted, "Who knows how many mermaids will be displaced by the war!"

"They must be waiting for a knight to rescue them. We can't just sit there and watch. Prepare to give yourselves to them, mermaid sisters!!"

"This is not important, idiot!!"

Snapped!

Usopp slapped Sanji on the back of the head and cursed!

Isn't it a bit weird that you're interfering in the civil strife of another country for such a reason?

"This" Jinpei was also a little speechless, however.

Hodi's ideas are as extreme as Aaron's, and he is not sure whether he can succeed in persuading him.

Xiao Ba said on the phone that the situation was very urgent. If a fight broke out, he would be alone.

Jinbe's thoughts are not pedantic. The Straw Hat Pirates are partners who have fought side by side and they trust each other.

If the other party has made up his mind, he will not refuse everyone's kindness for the sake of Fishman Island.

"Luffy."

Jinbei looked at Luffy seriously. Although he had a smile on his face, he could see the determination in the other's eyes.

"In that case, this time I will consider it as a favor owed to me."

Jinbei said as he sat down cross-legged, leaned forward and put his head on the ground to salute, and said in a deep voice: "Ace and the others may not be able to make it in time, please give me a hand."

"Don't make it sound so serious, Jinpei."

Luffy still smiled faintly and held out his hand to Jinbei, "Hurry up, we just want to help our friends."

"Speaking of which, the situation of civilians on the island is not too good. I wonder how Kimi is doing." Reiner said.

Thinking about Kimi's safety, the others couldn't sit still anymore.

Sanji was furious, his eyes looked murderous, "If sister Camie gets hurt, no matter who it is, I will cut him into pieces!"

"You're right!"

"It seems that even if we don't help Jinpei, we probably can't avoid intervening."

"We will never let anyone who dares to hurt Kemi go!"

Several people spoke up one after another.

"Yoshi!"

Perhaps to make Jinbei feel better, Luffy clenched his fist and raised it to his chest, and shouted seriously: "Now it's time to help Camie's country and fight against the meat!"

"Wait a minute, Luffy, there might be something strange mixed in with this operation." Reiner reminded.

Luffy then shouted again, "Then let's call it the Mermaid, Fishman, and Meat War!"

"Is this what you changed?"

Snapped!

Usopp slashed at the back of his head with a palm knife, baring his teeth and yelling: "The strange thing is still there!!"

Looking at the giggling people, Jinbei was obviously still a little confused.

Who is Kemi?

It seemed that a certain young girl inadvertently brought several powerful backers to Fishman Island.

"Although I don't know what happened, but since that's the case, I'll tell you the whole story first."

As he spoke, Jinbei began to talk to everyone about Hodi's situation.

While the Merry was still sailing, he told her about the establishment of the Sun Pirate Chart and the story of the fish-man hero Fisher Tiger.

It also mentioned the person that Hodi once admired, Aaron.

It was also at this time that he learned about what happened to Nami's hometown, which made Jinbei feel even more guilty.

Arlong was arrested that year, but he was released as a condition when Jinbe accepted the invitation of the World Government to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Unexpectedly, it caused so much misfortune.

Nami did not blame Jinbe for anything. What happened to Arlong was over and the past was gone like smoke in the wind.

Don't dwell on the past if it doesn't help you move forward.

Chapter 251 Heroic Drama

As Jinbei narrated, as everyone learned about the civil unrest, the Merry gradually emerged from the darkness and light began to appear ahead.

Since the giant tree [Sun Tree Eve] growing near Fishman Island can transmit sunlight to the deep sea, Fishman Island located in the deep sea also has changes between day and night.

Everyone stood up and marveled at the magnificent sight of Fishman Island floating in the deep sea, wrapped in a huge bubble.

"It's a double-walled bubble with an air layer in the middle."

Jinbei took the initiative to explain to them, "If they force their way in, the ship's membrane will be peeled off and fused by the bubbles outside, and then fall from the sky. The entrance should be heavily guarded by now."

"Don't we still have to fight our way in?" Zoro said calmly, holding the hilt of the sword and looking towards Fishman Island.

"No, I will go negotiate first."

Jinbei stared into the distance. Several fishmen had already noticed their boat and were swimming towards them on sea beasts. He replied:

"I still have some prestige. Before they confirm the hostile relationship, they dare not attack me."

"Everyone please wait for me here. At least before the battle begins, I hope to have a face-to-face talk with Hodi and the others."

"In that case, then you'd better be careful Jinbei." Luffy nodded at him.

"Ah."

After saying that, Jinbei jumped out of the boat membrane and swam towards the other party with his legs.

Just as Jinbei said, as the guardian of Fish-man Island, both fish-men and mermaids respect him very much.

When Reiner saw him approaching, the fishmen riding on sea beasts nodded respectfully to him, then stopped and started chatting.

He couldn't hear any sound, but he noticed that a leading fishman wearing a black suit jacket and a black top hat would glance at him from time to time, his eyes gloomy and full of hostility.

"It looks like this conversation won't end well." Sanji also noticed it, exhaled smoke, and whispered, "We have to be prepared. Fighting fishmen in the seabed will put us at a disadvantage."

"Take all of these."

Reiner threw a few bubble corals to everyone, blew a life-saving bubble to demonstrate how to use it, and said calmly:

"This way we can fight in the sea. Although we probably won't need it, it's just in case."

Reiner knew that there was little hope for Jinbe's reconciliation, but there was no need to worry too much.

The strength of Hodi's gang

Reiner's evaluation is that if they don't take drugs, they may not be much better than Aaron and his gang.

Battle plan: Invade the island and annihilate the enemy, easy.

"--Oh! Let me try!"

Luffy's voice came from the side, and Reiner and others looked over subconsciously.

He blew a bubble and wrapped himself in it, like a child who got a new toy and couldn't wait to jump out of the Merry to play with it.

"How cool, hahaha!"

"."

"Forget it, let's ignore that idiot for now."

Nami sighed helplessly, then turned to Reiner and Sanji and asked, "Just in case, should we sneak into Fishman Island to check the situation? After all, the other side has hostages."

"As expected of Ms. Nami, you are so thoughtful."

Sanji looked fawning and waving his hands like a seaweed swaying in the wind, "Leave this mission to me."

Reiner thought for a moment and said, "Let's split the troops into two groups. One group will fight head-on to attract attention, and the other group will take the opportunity to sneak in and rescue people."

"I choose to infiltrate." Usopp raised his hand and spoke.
