Chapter 275
Fish-Man Island was a very suitable place to go.
Not to mention that Fish-Man Island already had a close relationship with them and was originally one of Whitebeard’s protected countries.
Just speaking of Fish-Man Island’s geographical location, it was ten thousand meters under the sea, extremely secretive, and wouldn't be easily discovered by others.
In addition.
Fish-Man Island was located between the first half and the second half of the Grand Line.
In the future, when they found the specific location of Blackbeard’s base, they could set off from the seabed, arrive quickly, and give the Blackbeard Pirates a surprise!
No matter from which angle it was considered, Fish-Man Island was the most perfect hiding place!
One person was the happiest, the Whitebeard Pirates’ 8th Division Commander, Namur.
Namur was of the Fish-Man race and had a close relationship with Jinbe.
He heard that Jinbe had long since defected to Luo Xing.
Now he had also defected.
They, who had both called Whitebeard "Pops," didn't expect to be in the same camp again so soon.
The world is truly wonderful.
None of the Whitebeard Pirates’ commanders had any objections.
Luo Xing took out the Anywhere Door.
Jinbe, who had returned to Fish-Man Island after the battle for the Sabaody Archipelago, had just sent the location information of Fish-Man Island yesterday.
The Anywhere Door could reach Fish-Man Island directly now.
Even without Marco and the others, Luo Xing had planned to go to Fish-Man Island as soon as possible.
Bringing Fish-Man Island completely into the Beasts Pirates’ sphere of influence was secondary,
the main thing was to explore the biological problem of cross-species reproduction with the Mermaid Princess Shirahoshi.
Luo Xing had been thinking about this problem for a while and hadn't figured it out; he had to practice it personally.
248. The balance between Marines, Warlords, and Four Emperors is broken! The future of Fish-Man Island.
Fish-Man Island was located ten thousand meters under the sea.
It was right below the Red Line.
Above the Red Line was the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
One was above, one was below.
The fate of the Celestial Dragons living above and the Fish-Men living below was naturally diametrically opposed.
Because Fish-Men were born with immense strength, Celestial Dragons, royal families of various countries, and those big shots all liked to capture Fish-Men to be slaves.
To be their coolies.
And corresponding to the Fish-Men were the Mermaids, who were beautiful,
especially with those beautiful, shimmering fish tails, which attracted countless covetous hearts.
Mermaid slaves were even more popular than Fish-Men.
Previously at the Sabaody Archipelago, in the slave auction house belonging to Doflamingo,
a small mermaid named Amy sold for a high price of five hundred million berries.
Enough to match a powerful pirate captain in the New World!
The value of mermaids was evident.
The darkness caused by profit could not be stopped from permeating Fish-Man Island.
Mermaids and Fish-Men were frantically plundered, slaughtered, and treated as slaves by humans!
This tragic fate caused the Fish-Man race to hate humans extremely for hundreds of years.
Until Queen Otohime, the mother of the Mermaid Princess Shirahoshi, appeared.
She was the first to call for peaceful coexistence between Fish-Men and humans.
But her end was very tragic.
The hatred and estrangement between Fish-Men and humans were not so easy to remove.
As long as this world was still ruled by Celestial Dragons and ravaged by countless pirates,
the possibility of peaceful coexistence between Fish-Men and humans simply did not exist.
They would only be regarded as commodities that could be bought and sold for money by humans, and only regarded as rare slaves by Celestial Dragons!
King Neptune of Fish-Man Island recognized this reality after Queen Otohime died.
He no longer had any illusions or expectations for the world.
He only trusted a few humans he knew well, such as Roger and Whitebeard.
Because these two most powerful pirates in the world had both protected Fish-Man Island.
This made the pirates who had to pass through Fish-Man Island to get to the New World have to restrain their arrogance out of fear.
But Roger died young, and Whitebeard was also dead.
Now who else could protect Fish-Man Island?
Neptune sighed deeply.
Before Whitebeard went to Marineford, he had a conversation with him.
Whitebeard had a premonition that his time was running out and told Neptune to plan early for Fish-Man Island.
Neptune knew that after Whitebeard died, he had to defect to a new Four Emperor to be the protector of Fish-Man Island.
But who should he defect to?
Rationally speaking,
defecting to Red-Haired Shanks was the best choice.
After all, Red-Haired was an apprentice on Roger’s ship and had met Neptune many years ago.
But unfortunately,
Red-Haired was only a Four Emperor who had risen in recent years,
and his qualifications were far from comparable to Kaido and Big Mom, who had been Four Emperors for decades, let alone Whitebeard.
Among the Four Emperors.
His territory was the smallest.
And it was located deep in the New World, very far from Fish-Man Island at the entrance to the New World.
If any danger occurred on Fish-Man Island, Red-Haired would be unable to reach it in time.
For the sake of Fish-Man Island’s future, Neptune couldn't possibly defect to the Red-Haired Pirates.
After excluding the Red-Haired Pirates,
Neptune only had one choice left, and that was the Beasts Pirates!
Why not the Big Mom Pirates like in the original story?
The reason was that,
the Beasts Pirates in the original story had always been holed up in Wano Country.
It was also quite far from Fish-Man Island.
In terms of geographical location and sphere of influence, they were inferior to the Big Mom Pirates.
Big Mom, who would have episodes of illness, although her IQ wasn't very high,
the Totto Land she governed was extremely prosperous.
And Big Mom was vengeful, narrow-minded, and especially liked to kill people.
Whoever dared to offend her, even if they were at the ends of the earth,
Big Mom would immediately send a terrifying army to hunt them down to the end!
It could be said.
Big Mom was not the strongest among the Four Emperors, but she was definitely the most terrifying and the one who could not be provoked!
This could be considered a benefit for the territories under the Big Mom Pirates.
Therefore,
the Neptune in the original story chose to defect to the Big Mom Pirates.
The Sun Pirates led by Jinbe also joined the Big Mom Pirates.
However,
in this timeline, due to Luo Xing’s influence,
the Beasts Pirates’ territory had expanded dozens of times,
