91: Section 91
If this isn't a miracle, then what is?
Straightening his chest slightly, Neptune laughed and said:
"Lord Omar, just call me Neptune... As for Fish-Man Island, ho ho ho! — She is indeed beautiful. It is said that a certain generation of Mermaid Princess led her people and compatriots through countless hardships to finally create the Fish-Man Island of today."
"Now, she is already the... last paradise for my people."
(Subtext: Fish-Man Island really cannot withstand your destructive power, could you please go easy on us?)
Su Ming, understanding Neptune's implication, felt a bit annoyed.
No.
Who the hell are you pointing at?
Ge Men did indeed have a moment where he felt the urge to cast a Gathering skill and pack up Fish-Man Island to take it away.
But... didn't he hold back in the end!
Damn it! — Director Jiaozi was right.
Prejudice in people's hearts is a great mountain!
"By the way, may I ask, Lord Omar, what is the purpose of your visit to Fish-Man Island this time..."
As the midnight rose was about to dock, Neptune finally couldn't hold back and voiced his greatest concern.
Su Ming waved his hand, summoned a ghost servant, gave some instructions, and the ghost servant floated away.
Before long, it returned holding two wine glasses, one large and one small. After a stiff bow, the ghost servant, with a rigid smile on its face, handed the wine to Su Ming and the stiff-bodied Neptune.
Only after the ghost servant disappeared did Su Ming explain:
"This is Soul-Soothing Wine. It has the effect of alleviating negative emotions and calming the spirit..."
After speaking, Su Ming took a light sip. As the cold liquid entered his mouth, a ripple as clear as moonlight surged into his brain.
Su Ming sighed inwardly.
Moonwell water is truly a good thing. Without this stuff to mediate, the so-called Soul-Soothing Wine would only create a new ghost... and that would become soul-soothing wine in the literal sense.
Gurgle! — A strange sound came. Looking in the direction of the sound,
Neptune, being very sensible, snatched it before Su Ming could, downed half the glass in one go, and was now smacking his lips, silently savoring it.
Su Ming smiled with satisfaction upon seeing this and continued:
"As for my purpose, I've already said it. This trip is just passing through... Emmm, the New World is so big, I want to go and see it."
Neptune froze again.
It was this sentence again.
As the reputation of the Ghost King Omar spread, the things he had done had now become the center of widespread discussion.
Especially that outrageous resignation letter from Su Ming... After the name of the Ghost King spread across the sea, god knows how many people were secretly mocking the Navy.
He wanted to go to the New World, and you insisted on not letting him?
Look at what happened now!
The Ghost King has already made a name for himself, and the midnight rose is a regular on news headlines. Who knows how many scientists and scholars have been arguing endlessly over this unreasonable ghost ship, frequently spraying each other through the newspapers!
What?
Omar Su said from the beginning that he wanted to be a pirate?
That's not important!
The fact that the Navy and the World Government lost face is what's important!
"Ho ho ho! — The New World is indeed very lively. Regardless, Fish-Man Island welcomes your arrival!"
"You are too kind! — Hahaha!"
After fully exchanging views, Su Ming, guided by Neptune, stepped onto the territory of Fish-Man Island.
At the same moment, the news that the midnight rose and Ghost King Omar had arrived at Fish-Man Island quickly spread throughout the island.
"Nani! Is King Neptune getting senile? How can he allow a dangerous character like Omar to come to our Fish-Man Island?"
"Idiot, can you stop a ghost ship?"
"But, but... that is a monster that massacred an entire human town and personally killed a king of a World Government member nation!"
"So what... If he is determined to enter Fish-Man Island, who can stop him?"
"The Whitebeard Pirates! Right, hurry and notify the Whitebeard Pirates..."
"Heh, don't be stupid! God knows how long it will take for the Moby Dick to reach Fish-Man Island..."
"Don't! I beg you, don't mention that word!"
Su Ming perceived the Fish-Men's unrest clearly, but not only did he not feel it was his problem, he was secretly amused with great interest.
So, Su Ming did have a bit of a troll attribute in him.
At Neptune's invitation, Su Ming chose to briefly visit the Ryugu Palace.
Firstly, he was curious about the cuisine of Fish-Man Island.
Secondly, he also wanted to see just how beautiful the so-called most beautiful Mermaid Princess, Shirahoshi, could be.
And from Neptune's perspective, winning over a Supernova like Su Ming was the survival wisdom that had allowed Fish-Man Island to remain safe until now.
After a meal, both sides exchanged toasts, and it was quite lively.
Yet unexpectedly, while the group was feasting, a sharp explosion rang out in the sky. Neptune's expression changed, and in his anger, he forgot about the presence of his distinguished guest and slammed his fist onto the table.
The guards outside the Ryugu Palace were in chaos.
"It's here again! Damn it, why is it so much earlier this time!"
"Don't just stand there, hurry! Follow me, I hope Princess Shirahoshi isn't hurt..."
"Wuwawa! — Such a cute Princess Shirahoshi... No..."
The footsteps outside faded away. After several deep breaths, Neptune forced a smile to ease the atmosphere:
"Apologies, Lord Omar... A small disturbance, it has made you laugh."
Su Ming crossed his legs and waved his hand indifferently:
"There's no need to be so polite. The weapon just now was thrown from dozens of kilometers away... Heh, the Target-Target Fruit, is it? Indeed interesting!"
"However..."
Standing up and pulling back the chair, lifting his officer's cloak, Su Ming disappeared with a Blink.
In the air, only a sneer full of killing intent echoed.
"Daring to interrupt my meal, that is your fault... Gagaga, Ge Men is coming to meet you in person! Brother Vander Decken!"
Hiss! — Scary!
Neptune, who had just been startled by someone's fierce words, immediately reacted the next second.
He hurriedly pushed away the dining table, stood up, grabbed his trident, and rushed out.
On the way, he shouted orders:
"Guards! Assemble! Assemble at the Hard-Shell Tower quickly!"
At the same moment, Su Ming, who had Blinked outside the Hard-Shell Tower, was wearing a look of doubting life...
Chapter 104: Death of the Fish Scum! Cruel Ascension Reactivated
When Su Ming arrived at the Hard-Shell Tower, four weapons were already embedded in the tower.
The huge commotion caused further chaos among the guards, but they were powerless to do anything about it.
Having read the original work, Su Ming knew that when Shirahoshi was young, her mother, Queen Otohime, was assassinated, and it was at that time that she was targeted by the Target-Target Fruit user, Vander Decken IX.
Under the guise of proposing marriage, Vander Decken began his annoying operations.
First, he remotely projected a marriage proposal letter.
After being rejected by Shirahoshi for being ugly, Vander Decken IX developed murderous intent, crazily throwing weapons at Princess Shirahoshi every single day without fail!
First her mother died tragically.
Then, being crazily pursued by a repulsive, insane man. Shirahoshi became completely withdrawn.
The dignified princess of Fish-Man Island was forced to the point of not daring to go out, staying holed up in the Hard-Shell Tower trembling all day.
This person... Su Ming didn't even know how to complain about him.
Shirahoshi is a giant smelt-whiting mermaid. When she was six, although she appeared to have an adult's physique, but... people shouldn't, at least, shouldn't.
Moreover... you damn well look at how big Shirahoshi is now!
Over ten meters long... a toothpick stirring a large vat... Ugh! — Su Ming felt a chill.
Therefore, when Su Ming arrived, what he saw with Wall-Piercing Insight was Shirahoshi inside the Hard-Shell Tower, pouting with her eyes brimming with tears.
Sighing.
A guy like Vander Decken IX. In Su Ming's previous life, he would definitely be the perfect target for a crowd of martial arts masters!
However... why is this girl Shirahoshi crying even more sadly?
What baffled Su Ming was that the reason Shirahoshi, who was wailing and grieving, was crying so earth-shatteringly, was actually because she perceived Su Ming's presence?
No!
Ge Men is at least someone who can be called a 'little handsome guy' by an angel sister, you... this is uncalled for!
Vander Decken IX, with his four legs and lecherous face, never made you cry like this. As soon as Ge Men arrives, you give me this attitude!
Su Ming's face turned black.
But the next second.
Shirahoshi, who was born with Queen Otohime's Observation Haki, completely broke down in tears!
Broad noodle-like tears flowed like a waterfall. Who understands, family!
A ten-meter-long, large pink-colored mermaid girl, because of your black face, was actually crying a storm while curling her body into a ball, can you believe it!
You accepted something as abstract as Luffy just fine, but when it comes to Ge Men, you discriminate, right!
