Ignite the fire from the pirates

"Big Brother Tiger from Fishman Street is back. Humans are nothing!"

"But I seemed to see... that masked human was with Brother Tiger..."

……

Chapter 166 Whitebeard Newgate's Invitation

The Gironcord Square on Fishman Island was now surrounded by fishmen because of Tiger, Jinbei and Arlong, and each of them was showing malice towards Kevin.

Some of the female fishmen simply held the children in their arms and covered their eyes, not wanting the children to see the bloody scene that was about to follow.

The noisy sounds of killing humans all around made Aaron in the center even more complacent.

Jinbei frowned. Although he also hated humans, he didn't want to kill them.

"kill him!"

"Revenge for my compatriots!"

"Evil humans!"

"Boss Tiger, this human isn't with you, right?"

……

Amid the noise, Tiger felt his head buzzing.

Although he knew before that his compatriots were not friendly to humans, he did not expect the current situation to occur.

It seems that in recent years, their compatriots who have been captured by humans are not just those on Marijoa.

But... the gentleman seemed to be letting the situation escalate and stopped himself from going forward at the very beginning.

Just as Tiger was thinking about Kevin's thoughts, Aaron, who had been dissatisfied with humans in the past and ignited the atmosphere, came out with his fists clenched.

"Human, you shouldn't be here. You cruelly enslaved my people, and now we will also let you know what pain is."

Kevin looked at him and said, "You haven't answered my question yet: Do you think the law of the jungle is the truth? If someone is strong, then the resistance of the weak is meaningless? Do you agree to build your own happiness on the suffering of the weak?"

Kevin said as he looked at all the fishmen surrounding the place: "Is this what you think?"

For a moment, the fishmen who had been noisy just now froze in their fanatical expressions.

Just as Kevin said to Princess Otohime in Ryugu Castle, there are good and evil in every race, but more of the good and evil come from the experiences of developing cognition and the knowledge accepted.

Among the fishmen gathered here, the sentimental female ones were the first to show expressions of pity.

I want to say something but I hesitate.

"To deceive people! For the sake of our dead compatriots, kill this human!"

A voice sounded, and soon someone who met the requirements appeared.

Give a reason, when that reason is still hatred, then naturally the inner pain of the past will be infinitely magnified and convince the originally empathetic mind.

"Human, do you want to pray? Unfortunately, your plan has failed."

Aaron's webbed hands stretched out: "Next, I will make your body full of holes and let you die in agony while wailing!"

Under Kevin's feet, a black space coordinate swam, attached to Aaron's neck and disappeared.

At this moment, Kevin appeared directly behind him.

At the same time, a hand was pressed on the back of his neck.

"So now, you think I can take your life at will, right?"

In an instant, the touch on his neck made Aaron's whole body stiffen, and his eyes were fixed on the place where Kevin had just disappeared.

How... how is it possible?

Without any trace, it disappeared in front of him and appeared behind him.

How is it possible to have such a speed?

Humans, how could it be?

Hit the water!

The next moment, several water drops attacked Kevin.

Jinbei, who was standing next to Arlong, had a very serious look on his face at this moment.

"Snapped!"

A hand was waved, without even any sign of hardening of the Armament Haki, and it shattered all the oncoming water drops before they came into contact with them.

This scene stunned Jinbei. He also didn't see any trace of the speed just now, and he guessed that this human might be very strong.

But such a nonchalant attitude...

So were the previous questions meant to mock them?

"Clap clap."

Kevin casually patted the back of Arlong's neck, then retracted his hand and walked to the opposite side of Arlong and Jinbe.

Look around.

"So can you tell me now, as a strong man with the power to kill all of you, can I kill you at will?"

After he finished speaking, the fishmen, who were also shocked by the scene just now, came back to their senses.

The fishmen looked at each other, and then...

"No matter how fast he is, we have surrounded him! No matter what, we can't let a human bully us on Fishman Island!"

"Everyone, come together. With Boss Tiger here, we will definitely be able to kill him!"

"Arrogant human! We are not cowards!"

"Kill him!"

……

There were many such roars in the crowd, but the next moment...

"boom!"

A strong momentum burst out and red thunder exploded.

Everyone seemed to be facing a terrifying monster, and the beating of their hearts could be heard clearly at this moment.

Kevin's eyes remained calm under the mask. "So now, you should believe that I do have the power to kill all of you. Then according to your logic, do I have the power to dominate your lives?"

"Boom..."

A series of fishmen fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

At that moment, they really felt the fear of impending death.

And Fershetig also looked at Kevin in surprise, but then he was relieved.

For a man who has the will to change the whole world, isn't it inevitable that he has the talent of Conqueror's Haki?

Jinbei on the side was also gasping for breath. He had not experienced many changes yet, so naturally he had not grown to the level he would in the future.

"Human...what exactly do you want to say?"

Jinbei glanced at Arlong who was slumped on the ground next to him: "You didn't kill him, and your momentum just now didn't make everyone faint. What is your purpose?"

Kevin spread his hands and said, "I was just passing by, wasn't I? But you and him stopped me, and put the blame on me for the suffering that the fishmen had suffered from humans in the past, and you were going to kill me here for revenge, weren't you?"

Kevin looked around and said, "I just asked you about your logic, so now it is obvious that I am more powerful than all of you. Can I say that your lives are controlled by me?"

For a moment, the fishmen who were just driven by the atmosphere fell silent.

Some of them still looked at Kevin angrily, but more of them were really thinking about his words.

"In fact..."

Kevin paused, then continued, "I can understand your resentment. After all, in the past, many of your compatriots and even relatives were captured by humans and sold as slaves."

"You who live in the sea, as intelligent beings in this world, also yearn for the sunshine and blue sky above the sea, as well as the trees and flowers on land... These are the scenery that many of you have never seen since you were born."

"But I am not the one who arrested your compatriots and relatives, am I?"

Aaron, who sat up nearby, stared at the place: "They are human beings just like you!"

Kevin turned around and said, "But there are also humans among the captured slaves. The same is true for the slaves killed by the Celestial Dragons on Marijoa. Your relatives were captured and sold as slaves. It's not just you who hate them. There are also many ordinary humans."

"So do you think that all humans are the same?"

Jinbei on the side frowned and looked at his big brother Tiger.

At this moment, Tiger also understood Kevin's thoughts, and used this accidental incident to illustrate the good and evil among races.

"Fishman Island has also seen some extremely heinous criminals, and the same is true among humans. Those who capture slaves do not represent all of humanity."

Tiger looked around at his fellow tribesmen. "During the years I've traveled in the human world, I've sensed the fear ordinary humans hold towards me, but that fear stems more from the unknown. In the Grand Line, there are also humans who understand the murlocs and treat me calmly."

"Of course, there are also human trafficking organizations that want to capture me for money. But isn't this a normal manifestation of a race? There are both good and evil, and the same is true among us fishmen."

Kevin walked forward, pulled Aaron up, and patted him on the shoulder: "If the strong can kill the weak at will, then the world will be full of blood. Even if Fishman Island is under the sea ten thousand meters below, it will still be targeted."

"I remember that the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates is flying on Fishman Island now, right? The pirate who is known as the strongest man in the world is also a human being, and a pirate at that, but he is able to lend you the pirate flag because of empathy."

"So you think the Whitebeard Pirates should also bear the responsibility for those human trafficking organizations? That doesn't make sense..."

Aaron, who was pulled up, clenched his fists, but the impact of the domineering aura just now made it impossible for him to muster the courage to fight.

His stubborn character made him unable to agree, but his brain told him that what he said made sense.

Indeed...that doesn't make sense.

The first person to agree with what Tiger said was Jinbei. He bowed deeply to Kevin and said, "I am extremely sorry for your malice. What you and Boss Tiger said just now made me realize that there are kind people among humans, just like ourselves, with both good and evil."

"So... I am not begging for my life because of your strength, but I am just hoping to be forgiven for my recklessness just now."

Few people can apologize immediately after being persuaded, such as Aaron and the fishmen who were watching at this time.

It's embarrassing to apologize to a human being.

Kevin smiled, looked at Tiger and said, "There is a good talent among your brothers. Being able to face one's own heart is a prerequisite for a firm will. I'm afraid his fighting ability in the future will not be weaker than yours."

Having said that, Kevin patted Jinbei on the shoulder, ignoring the group of fishmen who were still in an awkward situation, and then continued to leave the square with Tiger and head towards Fishman Street.

Jinbei behind him had a complicated look in his eyes, and after glancing at Arlong, he followed.

He felt that this human possessed wisdom that he had never understood before, and he wanted to follow and see, perhaps gaining more insights and understanding.

The fishmen who were originally in a siege dispersed, and Tiger and Kevin headed towards Fishman Street, followed by a Jinbe.

Finally, Aaron, who had been standing there in a daze, also ran over, leaving the originally angry fishmen alone, still thinking about what he had just said.

……

Ten minutes ago, at the entrance of Fishman Island, a ship that looked like a whale's mouth was entering.

On the coated ship, a pirate flag with a white beard was flying. At the same time, the younger pirates were lying on the deck, wanting to see the appearance of Fishman Island immediately.

"Is this Fishman Island? It's really beautiful!"

"Is there a merman? Did you see it?"

"Where are the mermaids? Where?"

……

The newlyweds were full of curiosity, while the old people on the side watched it all with smiles on their faces.

They were not much better at the beginning, but now they are experienced old people and will not make such a fuss.

King Neptune and Queen Otohime of Fishman Island, as well as the princes who were born not long ago when they came last time, are all mermaids.

Well...but the female mermaids in the mermaid cafe are really beautiful.

It’s not easy to come here, so I have to go have a cup of coffee after a while.

"Harta, be careful not to fall."

Marco gave the newcomer an instruction.

Joz on the side laughed and said, "When you first came, they were not much better than they are now. It seems that someone almost fainted after seeing the beautiful mermaid girl for the first time."

Marco scratched his pineapple head helplessly: "Just tell them to be careful, Captain, and dad also reminded them, didn't he?"
