Madam Shyarly

After he got ready, Giotto directly set out to sea on his small boat, using his flame to power itself. Originally, forming External Advisors was just an idea, but now that the system had issued a mission, he naturally had to focus more on it. After all, the completion rate was influenced by the mission, and the Family would get stronger as the completion rate increased.

And the first target he chose was Jinbei of the Fish-Man Island. The current Jinbei should be still in his twenties and was a gangster in the Fish-Man District.

In fact, there was another candidate aside from Jinbei, which was the adventurer, Fisher Tiger. But now, no one knew where this adventurer had gone to.

And in the future, Giotto thought that Jinbei would be better. A man that would later be called First Son of the Sea was very suitable as the Family's External Advisors.

The other reason was that most of the people he was looking for were in Paradise by now, and some of them were in the four seas, so Giotto would have to enter Fish-Man Island, where Jinbei was, before getting to Paradise.

He'd later go to Sabaodi Archipelago to see his former vice captain. If Rayleigh agreed, the strength of the Family would be significantly improved again. Although Giotto himself felt that it was impossible, it wouldn't hurt to try.

Of course, that was the story for later, as he had to focus on Jinbei now.

The Fish-Man Island, the intersection between the New World and Paradise, Unless one could go up the Reverse Mountain or pass through Mary Geoise with the approval of the World Government, they'd have to take the route through the Fish-Man Island.

Because of this, the island was littered with pirates. In the past, without the protection of Whitebeard, the island was full of disasters.

Because the Merfolk could fetch a high price in the slave market. For those who had committed all kinds of crimes, the island was a good place to make a fortune.

"Is this the Fish-Man Island?"

Sitting on his small boat coated with a special resin, Giotto looked at the huge bubble surrounding him and his ship. Sure enough, the scenery was really shocking!

Fish-Man Island was very beautiful. Even under the deep sea, there was still the sky and clouds.

The reason for such a spectacle was the colossal tree that grew near Fish-Man Island, "Sunlight Tree Eve", that transferred the sunlight it absorbed on the surface to Fish-Man Island through its roots, allowing Fish-Man Island on the ocean floor to have sunlight. The local residents even described this phenomenon as "the grace of the sun".

At this time, Giotto frowned slightly. Then, he suddenly turned around and looked around. At that moment, Hyper Intuition sensed something that even his Color of Observation Haki did not respond to.

"What's going on?"

After muttering to himself subconsciously, Giotto shook his head again. "Impossible! Hyper intuition is reacting to the sea kings in the deep sea. Unfortunately, I don't have the voice of all things like Captain Roger. Otherwise, I would be able to communicate with these sea kings."

He was well aware that there were colossal sea kings in the deep sea. They were much larger than the sea kings outside as they were bigger than some islands.

However, they would not leave the deep sea, and no one dared to provoke them in the deep sea. After all, this was their territory.

Not long after, Giotto's boat entered Fish-Man Island. When he went out, he did not hang the flag with Vongola Family's emblem, so it did not attract unnecessary attention.

In order to hide his identity, he even put away his iconic cloak. Now he just looked like an ordinary person wearing a fancy suit.

As soon as he stepped on Fish-Man Island, he looked up and saw the flag of Whitebeard Pirates in the distance. With his protection, Fish-Man Island was a lot safer than in the past few years. After all, the pirates who were about to enter the New World did not dare to provoke the most famous Whitebeard in the sea just for one or two Merfolk.

"What a beautiful island. I would love to have it as Family's territory, but now that Whitebeard is protecting this island, let's forget about it."

Giotto smiled. He really liked the beautiful scenery of Fish-Man Island, but it'd be irrational to be at odds with Whitebeard Pirates for just an island.

Just for Merfolks...

No, it was for Fish-Man Island, and it didn't do him any good to become enemies with Whitebeard because of this.

"Then, let's see... The Fish-Man District should be this way, right? Anyway, I can ask for directions as I go, and I'm very confident in my intuition."

Giotto made his way to the Fish-Man District, and then... he got lost...

The Fish-Man and the Merfolk still had a considerable prejudice against humans, so he could not ask for directions at all and had no choice but to follow the road randomly...

"Ah!"

Just as Giotto stood there in a daze, thinking about whether he should choose to go left or right, he heard a voice and felt as if something had hit him.

Looking down, he found a little shortfin mako shark mermaid. What was interesting was that the little mermaid was holding a crystal ball in his hand.

Wait a minute!

Crystal ball, shark mermaid...

Wasn't she the mermaid who could predict the future? When she was three years old, she had already predicted the arrival of the Great Pirate Era!

But looking at the current situation, calling her Madam Shyarly seemed a little off.

"Are you alright?" Giotto smiled and gently asked as he looked at the little Shyarly, who had one hand on her head because she bumped into him.

But at this time, Shyarly suddenly raised her head and looked at Giotto in front of her. A strange scene seemed to appear in her eyes.

After a long silence, she said, "Big brother, you might die!"

"Really? But why?"

Giotto's expression changed slightly, but the smile on his face did not change.

A trace of pain appeared on Shyarly's face, and then she shook her head hard. "I don't know. I can't see clearly. I only see the flames of war, blood, and corpses. In the middle, big brother is still standing, and your whole body is covered in blood. But there are others standing. They all want to kill you, and then I don't know. I can't see anything..."
