Chapter 157: The Truth Comes Out

~7 min read 1,214 words

"What did I do? This is an interesting question."

Karl snapped his fingers, and Ain brought Hody Jones over. At this time, his face was old and weak, and he had already been affected by the side effects of the fierce drug.

Jinbe looked at Hody Jones's face and recognized him after careful inspection.

"Hody Jones?"

Hody Jones happened to open his eyes at this time, and after seeing Jinbe, he smiled with disdain: "Coward who fawns on humans!"

"He instructed his subordinates to injure the residents of Fish-Man Island, attack the Navy, frame it as the Navy's doing, and provoke racial conflict."

"You ask him, is this what he did?"

Jinbe's complexion changed, and he hurriedly grabbed Hody Jones's neck: "Is this your good deed?"

"Ho ho~"

Maybe because Jinbe was too hard, Hody Jones had some difficulty speaking. Karl had to cough twice, signaling Jinbe not to be too excited.

"It's what I did, so what? Humans are inherently inferior and evil creatures. Daring to step on Fish-Man Island is their end!"

Jinbe's arm trembled slightly, and he endured his anger and said: "In that case, the human tourists who went missing some time ago were all your work?"

"Jahahaha, it's me!"

Hody Jones had no intention of defending himself and proudly admitted it all.

Jinbe took a deep breath and then let out a long sigh.

"Sorry, Rear Admiral Karl, I misunderstood you!"

Karl shook his head: "No, no, no, it's too early to apologize now, Mr. Jinbe, you should remember the conversation between me and you some time ago, right?"

"Um, I naturally remember."

Karl smiled slightly: "Actually, I lied to you. My real purpose is to investigate the real reason for Wang Fei Otohime's assassination."

"Wang Fei Otohime? But wasn't she shot and killed by human pirates?"

"It was indeed assassinated by pirates, and I originally thought so too."

Then Karl's tone changed and pointed to Hody Jones: "If I remember correctly, at the moment Wang Fei Otohime was assassinated, he immediately killed the pirates and declared in front of the people of Fish-Man Island that humans killed Wang Fei Otohime."

"Don't you think it's a bit suspicious?"

"You mean!"

Karl snapped his fingers crisply: "That's right, I suspect that he instructed human pirates to shoot and kill Wang Fei Otohime and pointed the conflict to humans."

"The purpose is to destroy the racial relationship that Wang Fei Otohime finally eased, provoke racial conflict, and make the residents of Fish-Man Island hate humans and even feel desperate for humans!"

This remark made Jinbe fall into deep thought. Last year, no, the year before last, he was also at the scene, but at the moment Wang Fei Otohime died, he received a huge shock.

How could a brain filled with anger see these insignificant details?

"Maybe Mr. Jinbe feels that I have no proof, but have you found that this way of splashing dirty water is familiar?"

A loud bang came from the minds of all the Navy including the fish-man masses!

That's right, and they experienced it today! It can't even be said that they are unrelated, it is exactly the same!

"Jahahaha~ did I do something wrong? Everything I did was just to make you vigilant against humans, this kind of lowly and evil creature! Was I wrong?"

"That idiot woman actually ignored the dignity of the fish-men, sought peace with humans, and established some bullshit friendly relationship! It's a joke!"

"So, I used money to bribe human pirates, burned the signature box, and personally sniped her when Otohime was collecting signatures."

Now not only Jinbe, but all the residents of Fish-Man Island were furious!

Wang Fei Otohime is the person they respect the most, the person who ran for the future of the fish-man race for half a life, but this Hody Jones, this Hody Jones!!!"

"Kill him!" "Avenge Wang Fei Otohime!!!"

Neptune was trembling uncontrollably, his eyes were red, and he wanted to kill Hody Jones on the spot to vent his anger.

"Maintain order!"

The naval soldiers acted immediately, forming a defense line to block the agitated residents of Fish-Man Island, so as not to cause greater losses.

Jinbe raised his hand several times to slap Hody Jones to death, but he held back and walked to King Neptune silently.

"King Neptune, Hody Jones is guilty of heinous crimes. I wanted to execute him immediately, but the truth must be made public, and Wang Fei Otohime's efforts cannot be wasted!"

Neptune nodded vigorously: "I know, I know, someone! Catch him!"

Several Neptune Army soldiers immediately controlled Hody Jones and brought him to Neptune. Neptune endured the urge to fork him to death and waved his hand in disgust.

"Lock him in the prison tower and execute him publicly at Gyoncorde Plaza in three days!"

"Yes!"

After speaking, Neptune came to Karl with a complicated mood and said gratefully: "Thank you, Rear Admiral Karl, thank you for finding the real culprit who assassinated my beloved wife!"

"You're welcome, racial conflict is becoming increasingly sharp, it is this kind of extreme racist pushing behind the scenes, this place called Fish-Man District, it is better not to exist."

"Rear Admiral Karl is right, I will immediately issue a blockade order, strictly prohibiting residents of Fish-Man Island from entering this place."

Karl nodded slightly: "That's good, Nelson, let's withdraw!"

"Wait a moment!"

"Is there anything else? Mr. Neptune?"

King Neptune said sincerely: "To thank Rear Admiral Karl for what he has done, I would like to invite you and the Navy to go to Ryugu Palace tonight for a dinner. I don't know what Rear Admiral Karl thinks?"

"Hahaha, then thank you King Neptune for the warm invitation, we will arrive at the banquet on time tonight."

"Ain, let's go!"

"Ding~ series task 【Don't Fight Your Own People 4/7】 completed."

"Task reward: 【Fish-Man Wrist Strength】, Armament Haki · Internal Destruction skill card."

How to say it? In fact, Karl was ready for the task to fail. Jinbe really might take action, after all, his subordinates killed so many fish-men.

As a result, the task was completed. Do you say it's annoying?

Karl thought to himself: Use skill card!

In this way, Karl has mastered all known techniques of Armament Haki. If he wants to further strengthen, he can only improve his physique, and then improve the quality of Haki.

As for the skill of Fish-Man Wrist Strength, it is a great improvement for Karl, because he is a swordsman, and the strength of his wrist is very important.

Simply put, Karl's hand work has become better!

Mermaid Cafe.

The matter has been resolved, Karl simply came to drink a cup of coffee, definitely not wanting to stick with the mermaid ladies.

It's just that the speed of news dissemination was much faster than he imagined. Soon everything that happened in Fish-Man District spread throughout Fish-Man Island.

Several mermaid ladies stuck to his side, looking at him with admiring eyes, acting like a spoiled child and rewarding him, it was annoying.

Madam Shyarly stared at the crystal ball with a complicated expression. She did predict it right, but not completely right.

Who would have thought that Karl's arrival would be a good thing for Fish-Man Island? ===== CHAPTER 159 =====
