Chapter 515: I want 5
"How is this possible! A Poneglyph is such a large object, who could have taken it from Fish-Man Island to another place?"
Karl shook his head: "That, I don't know. However, I have always suspected that Shanks did it."
"Shanks? Luffy's mentor, that Emperor of the Sea?"
"Yes, he was an apprentice on Roger's ship back then. He definitely knew the Road Poneglyph was on Fish-Man Island, but I've beaten him many times, and he just refuses to admit that he took that Poneglyph."
Luo Bin:......
"Then what is your purpose for coming to Fish-Man Island this time?"
Karl said without hesitation: "To go to the Mermaid Cafe—oh no, to witness the awakening of the Sea King, Poseidon!"
The Mermaid Cafe was automatically ignored by Luo Bin, because the Sea King Poseidon made her even more concerned.
"Are you saying that one of the Ancient Weapons, the Sea King Poseidon, is on Fish-Man Island?"
"Princess Shirahoshi of Fish-Man Island is the contemporary Sea King Poseidon. It's just that when I came to Fish-Man Island a long time ago, she was still a little child and hadn't awakened the Sea King's ability."
"And according to the prophecy, at the age of 16, the King of the Sea Kings will awaken."
"This year, Shirahoshi is already 16. If nothing unexpected happens, she will awaken soon."
Hearing this shocking news, Luo Bin was a bit puzzled: "How do you know so much?"
"Haha, do you still think I'm that little boy who could only hide in a closet when pirates came?"
"Standing before you now is a Navy Admiral, a Navy Hero, and the richest man in the world."
Luo Bin sighed: "Sorry, I arrived too late back then. If I had come a little earlier, your parents wouldn't have..."
"That was over 20 years ago, no need to say more. Time flies so fast; in the blink of an eye, I'm a 33-year-old uncle."
Luo Bin looked at Karl's as-handsome-as-ever face and said indignantly: "You don't look like an uncle at all."
"Everyone, ahead is Fish-Man Island!!!"
"Really? Let me see, let me see!!"
Karl stood up from the lounge chair and looked at the giant bubble ahead: "Looks like we've arrived!"
"You are pirates, so you cannot enter Fish-Man Island directly through the main gate. So, let's part ways here!"
Luffy scratched his head: "Ah? Karl, aren't you a Devil Fruit user too? This is the ocean, you know!"
Karl smiled slightly, not exposing the fact that he had long since stopped fearing seawater: "It's fine, I'll just borrow a bubble from you."
Soon, Karl coated himself in a layer of bubbles, left the Sunny, and turned to look at the Straw Hat crew: "Goodbye, don't cause any trouble on Fish-Man Island!"
"Don't worry, Uncle Karl, we aren't total strangers on Fish-Man Island!"
After waving goodbye, Karl swam toward the main gate.
"Stop, please state your purpose!"
"It's you guys again. Don't you remember me?"
Looking at Karl's familiar face, the shrimp soldier's body suddenly shook: "Mr. Karl! Why are you here! Quick, please come in!"
Although he hadn't seen Karl in a long time, he had a very deep impression of him, because Karl had done something big on Fish-Man Island back then! It was hard not to remember him.
"How is it? Has Fish-Man Island been doing well lately?"
The shrimp soldier sighed and shook his head: "To be honest, not very well, but it's much better than last year."
Two years ago, the Summit War ended, Bai Huzi was killed, and only some remnants of the Bai Huzi Pirates remained. But they were barely able to protect themselves, so how could they have the heart to continue protecting Fish-Man Island? ===== CHAPTER 517 =====
