Chapter 13

"Fishmen Island is the birthplace of most Fishmen and mermaid tribes, and it is also known as "Undersea Paradise". It is a dreamlike paradise. The population of Fishmen Island is about 5 million." There was an old man on board and he began to introduce everyone to the general situation of Fishman Island.

"The fisherman island is an island surrounded by a huge double-layer semicircular bubble film shield, and there is an air layer between the two shields.

"If the coated ships follow an incorrect path and break into the Fishmen Island, the coating will automatically peel off and merge with the shield on the island, and some ships will fall to the ground in the air layer in the middle. Even if they succeed in breaking through the shield, the invading ships will still be washed away by the seawater in the shield... Maybe this shipwreck made the same mistake?" The old man sneered a few times, without much mercy in his tone.

"But the route we have traveled has also passed through the powerful submarine currents... What if the bubble film on the ship is damaged?" a young man on the ship asked.

Karl was quite clear about this, so he interjected on the side, "I heard that there is an 'air storage' at the front entrance of the fisherman island, which can create huge air bubbles that can envelop the entire island. Presumably, it should be no problem to cover our ship."

"Mhmm? It seems that you know a lot about Karl." Cracker walked over at this time and praised Karl since he was right. Cracker said, "Since we have arrived at Fishman Island, we will take a break here, Reb and I will go to find someone to help re-coat the boat."

"In short, everyone can go shopping on Fishmen Island, experience the local customs and relax a little." After Cracker finished speaking, the ship arrived safely at Fishmen Island.

When you come to the fisherman island, you naturally needed to stay for a short time. You must wait until the coating craftsman has overhauled the strength of the bubble film and confirmed that it is correct before daring to continue on the road.

Cracker did not spend time looking for a coater and went directly to the Palace City to find Neptune. As one of the four sweet commanders, even if the other party was the king of the island, he had to give face to Cracker.

...

Finally, with free time, many people on the boat started to wander around the fisherman island in groups, and some invited Karl to go with them, but Karl refused. He wanted to explore this place on his own.

The scenery of the fisherman island was indeed rare in the world. A huge spherical bubble film enveloped the entire island, and excluded a dazzling brilliance under the sunlight from the rhizome of the sun tree."

The beasts of the deep sea bathed in this rare sunshine in groups, swaying freely around the prosperous Fishman Island.

Of course, Karl also knew that this was only the surface of dreams, under this glamorous appearance, the endless blood, darkness, and violence were suppressed.

For example, the hatred between human races and the Fishman race was an enmity that has been accumulated for hundreds of years, and it is almost insolvable.

But this was not something Karl needed to care about. There was a rare opportunity. Karl wants to see the mermaid princess Shirahoshi.

As one of the ancient weapons known as Poseidon, the princess was different from other mermaids. Karl thought, if his third eye could see something, he could use this power to improve his strength.

"At this point, if it is the same as I guessed, then Shirahoshi has not been locked into the hard shell tower, and even her mother has not been killed."

Karl made such a guess because he saw the ship that was wrecked earlier.

Although others may not have seen it or noticed it, Karl's supervision in the third eye saw the logo of the world government on the boat. Recalling the original work, the man who was saved by Queen Otohime.

A celestial Dragon was saved during this time by Otohime, if this was the case, then Karl hoped to avoid some tragedies of the original work.

But strength was a problem. Although Karl felt that his strength was not weak. He still couldn't deal with the new Fishmen pirate group led by Hody Jones.

Of course, the only thing that was going for him was the fact that Hody Jones had only obtained the Energy Steroid which increased his strength by several times after Queen Otohime was killed. So, if he faced him one-on-one, Karl was confident in beating him.

"I don't think I can do it alone, so I can only ask for the help of Cracker. With the strength of Cracker, Jinbe is probably not his opponent now." Karl rubbed his forehead and felt the importance of strength again. He calmed down a bit and didn't think much about it.

He found a lovely lady mermaid to ask for directions and went to Gyoncorde Square.

Gyoncorde Square was the square on Fishman Island. It was the place where Queen Otohime often gave speeches to the residents of Fishman Island.

In the near future, Hody Jones would also murder Queen Otohime here and the reasons for that were also a bit dumbfounding. Hody Jones, and most of the members of his pirate group, had grown up on Fishman Street and have always lived in a hostile environment.

Among those people who lived in street, there was a character who was not very strong but had a very deep impression on Hody.

This character was Arlong he was not strong and in the future would only be a small pirate with a bounty of 20 million, and in the Sun Pirates, he was just a humble small cadre.

But for Hody Jones and the others, the Arlong was their idol. 'Fish people are a superior race, and human beings are just inferior trash.'

This set of "Fishman supremacy" theory completely ignored the fact that Fishmen were at the bottom of the chain of racial contempt, but it had become the core ideal and guiding theory of Hody Jones and his team.

Karl believed that perhaps if Arlong was not there to influence Hody, with the guidance of Jinbe and Fischertiger, Hody Jones and others would be good fishman.

But these things were not important now.

'I don't know when the coating of the ship will be completed.' Karl felt that he must come up with a perfect solution, at least to prevent Princess Otohime's death, and he wanted to let everyone know that he saved Princess from death to establish a good relationship with the Fishman Island.

He started thinking about it carefully, Karl remembered some details.

Princess Otohime was assassinated after she followed the Celestial dragon to sail for a week and brought back the signature of the World Nobels to agree to the establishment of friendly relations between the Fishman and humans.

According to the current timeline, by the time of the assassination, Karl might have already completed his mission of dealing with that Doflamingo's guy and he might be on his way back to cake Island.

"Looking at it this way, things are really difficult." Karl pulled his hair upset but soon noticed that a large group of people had gathered in the square. In the middle was an injured Celestial Dragon and Queen Otohime.

It was almost the same as in the plot. The near-dead Celestial Dragon was about to be killed, but Princess Otohime stopped the murderous fishmen and guarded the Celestial Dragon.

But this was not what Karl cared about. Karl's gaze swept casually, and he found the Princess Shirahoshi that was extremely conspicuous in the crowd.

Seeing Shirahoshi, Karl's brain suddenly came to light and he couldn't help but hit his forehead.

Yes, since it was difficult to save Princess Otohime, why not directly be friends with Shirahoshi?

The reason why Karl wanted to have a good relationship with Fishman Island was just to get close to the Shirahoshi, and the purpose was to find out about the Ancient weapon.

Karl changed his mind because he remembered his ability to hypnotize. Although Karl knew that his ability was limited, he was confident that he could conduct some psychological changes on the princess without letting the other party notice it.

"As long as I and Shirahoshi become friends, then... things will become much easier." Karl secretly said.

Of course, for the case of Princess Otohime, it was impossible for Karl to personally take action. Karl never thought that he was a bad guy. For characters who he has never met before, but had only seen a few times in anime in his previous life, Karl felt that he has no obligation to save her.

Of course, the most critical point was that Karl did not have such strength to do so.

If he chose to remain in Fishman island to protect queen Otohime rather than returning to Cake Island, Big Mom would be furious and he didn't want to lose half his life just to save someone he had never talked to.

So between himself and Queen Otohime, Karl chose himself.
