Chapter 77: The Plan of Fishman Island

After leaving the island, Lily did not delay and flew for two consecutive days. This kind of physical consumption is not a problem for a person of his level, not to mention that he has the ability of the Suzaku Fruit as a backup.

"Are you saying that there are indeed two islands here? But the other island only appears during the annual high tide?" Lily looked at the old man in front of her with a confused face. According to the old man, it would take at least half a year before the next high tide, and she is a capable person, so she doesn't have to go to the sea to look for it.

"Ah! I should have brought the fleet with me earlier." Lily expressed regret for going alone. Although she was fast, she was indeed not good enough for a large-scale search.

However, Lily did not give up. She flew in the direction pointed by the old man and searched again and again with her observation Haki. Unfortunately, she didn't know what was going on. There was no response. Lily didn't find the existence of the island underwater at all. Lily had no choice but to return.

"It would be nice if there were a few fishmen or mermaid crew members." After this incident, Lily discovered a big problem with the beasts now. The high-end combat forces are almost all capable people, which makes the beasts' ability to fight underwater extremely weak. Except for Jin's ability, others have no way to deal with underwater enemies.

Thinking of this, Lily took out Den Den Mushi and called the person in charge of the Hundred Birds.

"Molodi, collect some information about Fishman Island for me."

"Okay, ma'am, I'll give you a reply in three hours." Molody's voice was steady and powerful. Lily was very optimistic about this subordinate with strong personal ability. This guy is an excellent intelligence collector and also a very capable businessman. If he said three hours, then three hours would definitely be no problem.

Sure enough, at two hours, fifty-seven minutes and twenty-eight seconds, Lily's Den Den Mushi rang, and Lily listened to Molody's report and analysis.

"This is simply a natural ally, persecuted by the World Government, a gathering place for human traffickers, very good." Lily nodded and accelerated back.

A few days later, Lily returned to the Iron Islands. Kaido was having fun with several crew members. Oh, Kaido's entertainment. The others were running for their lives. Kaido was holding a bunch of special soft balls and throwing them at the crew members crazily to train their observation Haki. Kaido was having a lot of fun, but the crew members were complaining.

Lily stood on the top of a tree and did not make a sound to disturb them. She did not jump down from the top of the tree until all the crew members fell to the ground exhausted.

"What's the situation?" Kaido did not look back. He was too familiar with Lily's breath. He had sensed it when Lily approached the Iron Islands just now.

"I didn't find it. It's a floating island. It will take at least half a year to float up." Lily stroked her long hair. When she jumped down just now, her hair was a little messy.

"Underwater? How about letting Jin go with you?" Kaido thought about it. Now the first person in the group who is good at water skills is Jin.

"Forget it, I used my observation Haki to sense it, but I can't find it at all. Jin is still far from being able to use his fruit ability, but I have another idea."

"Tell me about it."

"Fish-Man Island."

"Fish-Man Island? I remember they are also a member of the World Government, right?" Kaido didn't know much about Fish-Man Island. He went to the New World by sneaking there, hiding in the cabin, and didn't get off the ship at all. Naturally, he didn't know the situation of Fish-Man Island. When he arrived at the Rocks Pirates, relying on the ability of the Golden Lion, everyone didn't need to dive, just fly, so his understanding of Fish-Man Island came from books and other people's words. Even the Rocks Pirates didn't have fish-man crew members.

"That's right, but fish-men and mermaids are discriminated against and persecuted by the World Government, and because of the location of Fish-Man Island, the price of mermaid slaves has remained high, so it has become a gathering place for human traffickers." Lily told Kaido the information she got.

"Persecution? Human traffickers? Ha, this is something that the bastards of the World Government can do. What do you think?" Kaido sneered first, then asked.

"How about we go to the Dragon King's Palace?" Lily curled her lips, "It is one of the main roads to the New World. At the same time, because we lack underwater combat power, fishmen are very suitable. In addition, the most important point is that we are needed there."

"Well, that's right, we are needed there, the Dragon King's Palace, in the name of the dragon? Since you compare yourself to a dragon, you can't lose the momentum of the dragon. I'm curious about what kind of person the king there is." Kaido likes the word "need". In his opinion, this word means that he is one step closer to his dream.

"It is said that their king is no longer in charge of things now. The one who is in charge of the country now is Prince Neptune, who is 38 years old and known as the Great Knight of the Sea." Lily thought for a while and said.

"The Great Knight of the Sea? That's a very impressive title. Now I want to meet him even more." Kaido rubbed his chin and had already thought about fighting with Neptune.

"Don't think too much about it. We still need to consider the matter of Fishman Island in the long run." Lily slapped Kaido on the head and used forced calmness on him.

"Huh???" Kaido opened his mouth wide, looking like he couldn't accept it.

"Think about the location of Fishman Island, you bastard, don't tell me you can't see it." Lily didn't care about Kaido's stupidity. After all, this was not the first or second time. Kaido would act stupid in front of Lily from time to time, and Lily was completely immune to it.

"Okay." Kaido stopped playing tricks. He knew that the current Fishman Island was not something that the Beasts could get their hands on. First of all, Fishman Island was a member of the World Government anyway. Even if the World Government looked down on Fishman Island and regarded it as fish, as long as Fishman Island still handed over the Heavenly Gold, then the Beasts could not jump in their faces for the time being.

Secondly, as the only two roads from the Grand Line to the New World, especially the only road for pirates, no matter whether they were pirates from the New World or pirates from the Grand Line, they would not allow the Beasts to occupy it. This was almost a stranglehold on everyone, and would inevitably lead to the Beasts being attacked in groups.

Finally, the problem of Fishman Island was different from other places. The oppression here was not caused by the king and nobles of a country, but by the discrimination caused by the habits that the entire world had developed over the years. If this discrimination could not be reversed, it would be difficult to solve the problem of Fishman Island, not to mention that Fishman Island itself seemed a bit xenophobic.

"Let's set up a branch of Baique first, and send out a caravan to communicate with Fishman Island. It is said that the fishmen have many specialties. Let's not show up first. The caravan and Baique are legal on the surface, and can be used as our breakthrough to Fishman Island." Lily thought about it and summarized her ideas.

"We can let our people go in a small part and crack down on a few human traffickers from time to time, which can enhance our reputation in Fishman Island." For these little tricks, Kaido is not incapable of using them, but he disdains to use them, but this time the situation is special, Kaido doesn't mind taking action.

"Okay, who should be sent?" Lily nodded.

"Take turns, just treat it as actual combat training. Xia Ji, that little guy, hasn't been on a mission much, let Dai take her with him, just treat it as a practice."

"Okay."
