After a few days passed, Sora, still asleep in the embrace of his wives, was awakened by the voice of a woman from behind the bedroom door.
"Master, we have arrived in the waters around Conomi Islands!"
A woman with yellowish-white short bob-cut hair, dressed in a sexy maid outfit, but her distinctive feature was the eyepatch and the beauty mark below the left side of her lips.
Hearing the voice, Sora immediately got up and put on a bathrobe provided before leaving the room.
"2B, is it? I've already told you all to rest. With your bodies in a pregnant condition, it's not effective to engage in activities, and regarding your duties as fighters, that's no longer necessary since I am strong enough."
Sora advised 2B while stroking her cheek and her large belly.
"It's okay, Master. We YoRHa units are used to being active in any condition."
No matter how many times Sora advised them, their overly serious attitude made him overwhelmed.
When he first summoned them, Sora was even surprised by their readiness to fight immediately.
Fortunately, since 2B, A2, and H10 became pregnant, they have become a little calmer, although they still wanted to take on the job as maids.
"Alright, then please dock our ship a few kilometers away. I will go down myself because it is not yet time for you to be in the line of sight of the Marines and the World Government."
2B nodded and carried out Sora's order, quickly contacting A2, who was currently in charge of piloting the Oceanus Grave II.
Soon after, the ship stopped, and the camouflage ability was activated.
Realizing everything was ready, Sora immediately headed toward Conomi Islands, or more precisely, to Cocoyashi Village, where he planned to grill some fish or make sushi.
-----
In a dark and cramped room, a little girl was drawing something while crying.
"*Hic... hic... Bellmere... hic... Nojiko."
The girl was drawing a very detailed map for a child her age.
Despite her hands being injured from drawing too much and blood dripping onto the paper, she continued to draw, crying and calling out the names of the two people she loved dearly.
Not only that, but there was also a fresh wound on her left shoulder from a tattoo that was forcibly applied by the evil creatures that committed various atrocities on her island.
If Sora witnessed this incident, there's no doubt that the Fish-Man Island might vanish from the world due to Sora's uncontrollable rage.
On the other hand, Sora arrived at Cocoyashi Village and saw the miserable condition of the village—damaged houses, bloodstains everywhere, people filled with anxiety and terror.
"I don't know who you are, but leave this island immediately!"
Sora suddenly heard someone, and when he looked toward the source of the voice, he saw a middle-aged man covered in bandages sitting in a wheelchair, pushed by one of the villagers.
Sora tried to recall who this person was until he saw the hat with the paper windmill on the man's head. Sora remembered Genzo, an old man who took care of Nami and Nojiko after Bellmere's death.
"Hmmm?? That windmill... are you Genzo-san?"
"How do you know who I am?"
Genzo didn't expect the sudden stranger in their village to recognize him.
Sora, who successfully captured Genzo's attention, felt confident his simple plan would succeed and began to speak.
"Oh, my name is Sora, and I met Bellmere when she was on duty. We became close friends after frequently fighting together, and she told me about her childhood friend named Genzo. She also mentioned that she was going to adopt two girls before quitting the Marines."
"And by the way, I'm not a Marine, just an acquaintance who wanted to visit."
Hearing Sora's story, Genzo easily believed him, but he became very sad and disappointed with himself when recalling Bellmere's death.
"Actually,..."
Genzo then recounted what had happened to their village, about the arrival of the Arlong Pirates along with his crew.
They demanded a ransom from all the residents of Conomi Island, and those who couldn't pay were killed by Arlong and his crew.
Bellmere, who only had a little money, decided to ransom her two adopted daughters' lives but had no money left to ransom her own.
So, Arlong killed her right in front of her two daughters, Nami and Nojiko, while Genzo, who resisted, had to face punishment by being slashed multiple times, leaving him nearly dead.
When Arlong discovered Nami's navigation skills, he forced her to join his crew with the threat that he wouldn't slaughter the entire Cocoyashi Village.
Moreover, as long as she could gather 100 million berries, she could buy the freedom of all Cocoyashi Village residents from Arlong.
With no other choice, Nami reluctantly followed Arlong's orders, even having to act as a traitor to ensure no villagers obstructed her.
Fortunately, thanks to Genzo informing the villagers of the truth, none were angry or hateful toward Nami. Instead, they felt pity and deep regret for having to rely on a little girl just to survive.
Sora then asked if all the fishmen were involved in the massacre and robbery, to which Genzo confirmed that not a single fishman was uninvolved in the tragedy on Conomi Island.
Hearing that, Sora felt relieved and could exact revenge if Rayleigh caused trouble in the future.
"I am deeply sorry for what happened, Genzo-san, but since I am already here, I will—"
"Hey, who are you?! A newcomer? Quickly pay the ransom, or I'll kill you right here!!!"
Before he could finish his sentence, a fishman appeared and immediately threatened Sora.
Seeing this opportunity, Sora felt relieved because he didn't need to go through the trouble of convincing Genzo, the villagers, and Nojiko, who was spotted peeking from behind one of the houses.
"Torture Tools: Judas Cradle!!"
With Sora's command, four chains suddenly appeared, capturing the fishman's hands and feet, suspending him in the air.
Then, slowly, a device resembling a tall chair with a pyramid-shaped seat appeared right beneath the fishman.
"Hey, what's this? Let me go! Don't you know who I am? Let me go, or you'll face the consequences. Don't think Arlong-san will let you off after doing this to an esteemed fishman like me."
However, Sora paid no attention to the fishman's words. With a cold and emotionless face, he controlled the chains binding the fishman and slowly lowered him onto the pyramid-shaped seat.
The fishman, seeing Sora's cold expression, suddenly felt anxious and began to panic when he saw something resembling a pyramid beneath him.
He started howling, thrashing, screaming, even begging for help, but it was useless as no one would come to his aid.
The fishman then sat right on the pyramid, feeling the sharp pain from its pointed tip. But it wasn't over yet.
The chains on his feet began to pull the fishman down, causing the pyramid's tip to pierce his rear with immense force.
The fishman started to go mad from the pain until finally, his screams stopped as his body was ripped and torn apart after being pulled down with such force that the pyramid seat pierced through his entire body.
The villagers witnessing this couldn't hold back their nausea as it was the first time they saw such a gruesome execution.
Even Arlong's massacres seemed like child's play compared to what they witnessed now.
After finishing off one pest, Sora looked at Genzo and spoke.
"Now it's time to go hunting for some fresh fish!"
