Chapter 146: Fish-Man Island, here I come

The next day, at noon.

The Seastone warship had already been wrapped in a layer of bubbles, quietly docked at the port.

"Goodbye! Rear Admiral Karl, I wish you a smooth journey!"

Standing by the railing, Karl smiled and waved: "I'll take your kind words! Brigadier General Gregory!"

After saying goodbye, Karl directly issued the order: "Set sail! Destination: Fish-Man Island!"

The warship began to submerge, and before long, it dove to the bottom of the sea. The naval soldiers looked at the sea surface above in amazement; for most of them, it was their first time seeing such a scene.

Karl, however, didn't make a fuss. He had Nelson control the direction, and after confirming the route, he came to the side of the mermaid Mina.

"Miss Mina, I'll be counting on you later!"

Mina nodded with a smile: "Rear Admiral Karl, don't worry. You are my benefactor; I guarantee to let you..."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Karl interrupted Mina's words; no setting flags randomly!

An hour later, the Seastone warship successfully arrived at Fish-Man Island, encountering neither attacks from Sea Kings nor anything like underwater currents.

"Is this Fish-Man Island? It's so beautiful! Don't you think so, Karl!"

Karl nodded. Appearing before them was an island surrounded by a huge double-layered semi-circular bubble shield, with an air layer between the two layers of the shield.

This was the official passage to Fish-Man Island; pirates could not enter Fish-Man Island from here.

Smoker sighed: "Fish-Man Island actually has a sky and clouds too; the world is truly full of wonders!"

Hearing someone praise her hometown, Mina explained happily: "This is the 'Blessing of the Sun'!"

"The giant tree 'Sunlight Tree Eve' growing near Fish-Man Island can transmit sunlight from the surface to Fish-Man Island, which is why Fish-Man Island, located in the deep sea, can have sunlight and the change of day and night."

"Oh! So that's how it is!"

Karl coughed: "Let's stop discussing it, let's go in!"

The Neptune Army guarding the entrance became serious upon seeing the naval warship and shouted at Karl on the ship: "Stop! Any ship entering Fish-Man Island must undergo entry inspection!"

Mina hurriedly rushed out of the bubble and swam to the guard post, saying: "They are the Navy, not bad people. It was they who saved me from the human traffickers."

The Neptune Army soldier observed Mina carefully and said in surprise: "You are the resident who went missing half a month ago!"

"Yes, my name is Mina! I work at the Mermaid Cafe! Madam Shyarly knows!"

The Neptune Army fish-man nodded: "I know, but entry inspection is mandatory. Don't worry, we won't make things difficult for them."

"Mm-hmm!"

Ten minutes later, the warship successfully passed through the entrance and officially landed on Fish-Man Island.

The news of the Navy's landing naturally reached the Ryugu Palace.

King Neptune stroked his fluffy orange beard: "The Navy? Why would the Navy come to Fish-Man Island?"

"I don't know. According to the Navy's statement, they are here on Fish-Man Island for a vacation."

"Vacation? I hope so!"

Mermaid Cafe.

Upon hearing that a warship had arrived at Fish-Man Island, Shyarly's complexion suddenly changed. She hurriedly walked into her room and looked at the scene foreseen in her crystal ball; her pupils shook violently.

"It's here, it's really here; how could it be so fast!!!"

The scene appearing in the crystal ball was like a living hell: corpses, countless fish-man corpses, and a man in a naval uniform whose face could not be seen standing in the middle of the corpses, confronting a fat blue fish-man...

Coral Hill, the southeastern part of Fish-Man Island.

This is the most prosperous port town in the Ryugu Kingdom, with restaurants, clothing stores, amusement facilities, and all kinds of strange fish-men and beautiful mermaid ladies.

"Rear Admiral Karl, I've been missing for so many days, my mother must miss me very much. Why don't you guys stroll around here for a while, and I'll come find you later, okay?"

Karl smiled: "Hahaha, that's for sure. Go ahead! We'll be waiting for you right here!"

After Mina left, Karl turned to the naval soldiers and said: "This is Fish-Man Island, everyone be a bit more careful, don't talk nonsense."

"Don't worry, sir!" "Yeah! Such a beautiful place, I must have a good look around!"

Karl waved his hand: "Alright, alright, dismissed! Notify me immediately if there's any situation!"

"Yes!!!"

The soldiers left in groups, and now only the three of them were left on the street.

Smoker looked at Fish-Man Island, which was full of water everywhere, and felt inexplicably physically uncomfortable, looking nervously at the transparent water pipes one by one in the sky.

"Is that how the fish-men reach various locations on Fish-Man Island? That's really interesting!"

Karl rolled his eyes at Smoker: "You ask me, who do I ask? I'm also here on Fish-Man Island for the first time, okay!"

Suddenly, Ain hugged Karl's arm and pointed excitedly at a clothing store nearby: "Look, they're selling clothes over there, let's go take a look!"

Karl glanced at the Mermaid Cafe not far away, then looked at the clothing store; was there even a choice?

"I'm suddenly a bit thirsty, why don't we go to the Mermaid Cafe and have some coffee first?"

Ain looked at Karl suspiciously, her cheeks slowly puffing up like a hamster.

"Hmph~ alright! But be quick, okay!"

Karl: Choked!

"Cough, cough, well, Smoker, do you want to come along?"

Smoker shook his head: "I'm not going, I'll just wait for you guys here!"

The corners of Ain's mouth lifted slightly.

"Welcome to the Mermaid Cafe, what would you like to drink?"

Looking at the two mature and alluring mermaid big sisters in front of him, Karl couldn't help but take a deep breath; Fish-Man Island was indeed a man's paradise!

Ain clenched her fists tightly; she knew it, this playboy Karl was definitely up to no good. What drinking coffee, he was clearly aiming for the mermaid beauties, right!

"Hahahaha, well, let me see, a caramel macchiato, and give her a cappuccino!"

The mermaid lady noted it down and nodded: "Mm-hmm, noted, guest. Please wait a moment, it will be right up!"

Another blue-haired mermaid lady licked her lower lip, her eyes staring straight at Karl: "Guest, you look so handsome!"

Karl smiled slightly: "Is that so? You're also very beautiful! What's your name?" ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
