"If that's the case... let's observe for a few days! Maybe they will leave in a few days?"

"As you command, Your Majesty."

Noah, built and placed in Fish-Man District by the residents of Fish-Man Island hundreds of years ago, has the titles of "Ship of Promise" and "Ship That Has Yet to Fulfill Its Mission."

Because it has been abandoned for too long, this place has long become the base for the thugs of Fish-Man District.

After the assassination of Wang Fei Otohime, Hody Jones, who left the Neptune Army, entrenched himself here.

"Boss, there's news!"

A tall and fierce fish-man opened his terrifying eyes, revealing a mouth full of sharp teeth: "Oh, is that so? Tell me about it."

"It's the Navy. A group of Navy landed on Fish-Man Island today. Their purpose is not clear. They look like they are here for tourism. Apart from sightseeing, they haven't done anything."

Hody Jones snorted coldly: "How bold! Those inferior humans actually dare to enter Fish-Man Island so swaggeringly."

"What is the attitude of those merchants?"

"Um, not clear, they look very happy, because after Wang Fei Otohime died, there haven't been so many tourists coming for a long time."

"Tsk~ a bunch of fawning lowlifes, they really forgot the pain after the wound healed! It seems that the death of that woman Otohime didn't teach them a lesson."

Hody Jones stood up from his seat in dissatisfaction. He was serious about hating humans, even though he had never been directly persecuted by humans.

"Daruma!"

A short red fish-man popped out from the ground with a swoosh and said with an arrogant expression: "Boss, do you want me to bite their flesh and eat it? Kaka!"

"Jahahaha~ no! I want to ruin the Navy's reputation! Go and injure a few guys living above, and then frame it on the Navy! Understand?"

"Leave it to me, Kaka!"

Daruma burrowed into the ground with a swoosh and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Early the next morning.

Karl walked out of the hotel and stretched, but found that the eyes of the residents of Fish-Man Island looking at him seemed a bit different.

Although they weren't very enthusiastic yesterday, it was at least normal. Why did their attitude take a direct reversal today?

Karl's complexion changed. Not good, something must have happened last night!

Subsequently, Ain also came out. After seeing the eyes of the fish-men, she immediately felt that something was wrong and hurriedly walked to Karl's side: "What happened?"

Karl shook his head silently: "I don't know!"

Last night, Smoker gathered the soldiers to return to the warship to rest and guard the ship, while he and Ain found a hotel to rest. Of course, they lived separately.

He and Ain definitely didn't commit any crimes. If someone really made a mistake, it might be Smoker, after all, his temper was a bit impulsive.

"It was you guys who injured my husband!"

"That's right, I saw it very clearly last night, it was these Navy members in white uniforms who did it!"

"Humans really have no good things, get out of Fish-Man Island!"

"That's right! Get out of Fish-Man Island!!!"

Gradually, the residents surrounded Karl and Ain and denounced them loudly.

Karl instantly realized that something was wrong. This operation was familiar; he often used this trick! What was it called? Framing!

"Residents of Fish-Man Island, we were resting in this hotel last night and never left from beginning to end, so I don't know anything about what you said."

"Please calm down, I am Rear Admiral Karl of the Navy. After I investigate clearly, I guarantee to give you a satisfactory answer!"

The Raven on Karl's shoulder turned into a long sword and landed steadily in his palm, faintly flashing with cold light, and he looked at the residents of Fish-Man Island with sincere eyes.

Suddenly, the fish-men surrounding them were silent. Karl couldn't help but sigh that Fish-Man Island was indeed simple and honest, and too understanding.

"Ain, let's go!"

Soon, Karl and Ain rushed to the warship and found that it had been surrounded by angry residents of Fish-Man Island, and Smoker was sweating profusely explaining to the residents.

"Everyone, I swear, no Navy member left the warship last night, so how could we have injured the masses?"

"What's the use of swearing? Do you still believe the nonsense of humans?"

Hearing this inflammatory remark, the residents of Fish-Man Island were immediately furious: "That's right! Have your humans done few bad things?"

"Get out of Fish-Man Island!" "Get out of Fish-Man Island!"

Smoker clenched his fists and stood on the spot at a loss. Seeing the figures of Karl and Ain, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He really couldn't handle this situation.

"You came just in time!"

Karl patted Smoker on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down: "What happened, tell me!"

"It's like this..."

It turned out that as soon as Smoker got up in the morning, he found that the warship was surrounded by fish-men, pointing at several scarred fish-men on the ground, insisting that they were injured by the Navy and demanding an explanation.

Smoker definitely wouldn't admit it! Last night all the naval soldiers were on the warship, no one could leave the ship at will, and besides, why would they beat people for no reason?

But these fish-men didn't agree and insisted on saying how humans were! It made Smoker's head grow big.

"No need to say more, I understand, someone is targeting us!"

Smoker nodded hurriedly: "Exactly, every time I finally manage to appease them, someone immediately points the conflict to racial relations."

Karl rubbed his eyebrows. In his heart, he had basically confirmed that this was Hody Jones's operation. He probably did the same thing when Wang Fei Otohime was assassinated.

It's just that before, he blamed the pirates, and now he blames the Navy.

This Hody Jones is really an extreme racist!

Looking at the agitated residents of Fish-Man Island below, Karl also had a headache. It was impossible to take action. Once they took action, they would have to take the blame even if they didn't. Now the most important thing was to clear the Navy's name.

"Everyone calm down! Calm down! I am the officer of this warship, you can tell me if you have any dissatisfaction!"

"Please give me some time to investigate and find out the truth, okay?"

Then, without waiting for the residents of Fish-Man Island to react, Karl quickly walked to the side of the injured fish-men and asked.

"Last night, when were you attacked?" ===== CHAPTER 152 =====
