"A fish-man? I did see one, but it's just a mermaid."

Robin put a finger to his cheek.

"I just saw Kemi taking Nami away. They seemed to have boarded the sea bus."

Zoro: "Kemi?"

Usopp: "Nami?"

Brooke: "Sea...Bus?"

Itachi added: "When I came in just now, I saw soldiers running away."

"If we say they are fish-men, they should all be fish-men."

"What, Brother Itachi!" Usopp went crazy.

"What I want to ask is the fish-man named Hody, the fish-man named Hody!"

"It seems like that guy is the culprit, he is the boss of those fishmen! Speaking of which..."

Usopp moved closer to Itachi.

"Speaking of which, Brother Weasel, what move did you use just now? How can you create burning flames even under water?"

"Can fire burn under water?" Zoro, who had just experienced a water fight, looked at Itachi.

"Yes, yes, Zoro, you don't know!" Usopp danced and demonstrated to them.

"I don't know what happened just now. I saw the fishmen scattered in the palace suddenly started to be burned by black flames, and they couldn't be extinguished no matter how hard they struggled in the water."

"Fire in the water?" Zoro raised his eyebrows. "What are you talking about, Usopp."

"Do you think I'm talking nonsense?" Usopp's tiger body shook, and he pulled Itachi out.

"Brother Weasel, explain to him, and by the way, explain to me how the fire was made."

Seeing Usopu pulling Itachi, Robin smiled and said, "Itachi may say it again later. This explanation is a bit complicated."

While several people were talking, Brooke suddenly spoke.

"It's okay, Itachi-san, maybe I can explain it to you."

"Brooke, how do you explain?" Usopp turned around and asked.

"It's simple."

Brooke turned his butt around, and everyone suddenly discovered that the black flames of Weasel were already burning on Brooke's buttocks.

"Yes, yes, that's it!" Usopp took out a magnifying glass to study.

"Look, I'm not talking nonsense. This is it."

Itachi was also very surprised. When he was about to leave Ryugu Castle, in order to prevent Amaterasu, which would never be extinguished unless it burned its target, from burning Ryugu Castle, he used Amaterasu's Glance again to offset all the black flames.

But how can this...

"So I said, I also believe in the existence of fire that can burn in water, but now..."

"Ta Si K! One dozen Qisang!"

Brook hugged Itachi and cried.

"I can't get rid of this thing, please help me get rid of it, get rid of it!"

Just now when Brooke pretended to be dead and floated past a burning fishman in Dragon Palace City, he was exposed to this black flame, but he didn't pay attention to it just now. When he came out, he thought it would be extinguished by patting it.

But he didn't expect that the fever was getting stronger and stronger now, and no matter what he did, he couldn't get rid of it.

"There really is such a thing." Zoro watched Brook rolling around, the black flames behind him unable to burn out.

Itachi sighed lightly, and after Mangekyō Sharingan appeared, he neutralized the Amaterasu on Brook's butt with Amaterasu.

"It's really... ugh." This was the first time Itachi used it this way.

"saved!"

Brooke relaxed and sat down.

"This time it seems like all my bones are useless and will be burned."

Zoro stood up and said to everyone: "Anyway, let's meet up with Luffy and the others first. Didn't Usopp just say that the fishman named Hodi escaped."

"Something big will definitely happen here." Zoro raised his knife and looked around. He saw the soldiers of Ryugu City who had escaped.

At this time, Robin suddenly pointed to a stop sign in the distance. Under the stop sign was a long and narrow bubble channel.

"That's where Nami and the others left. We might as well follow that passage to find Nami first."

"Yo Xi, everyone gather together first!" Usopp clapped his hands.

As he spoke, he took the lead and ran towards the passage.

At this time Itachi suddenly said: "The samurai is right, but something big is not going to happen soon."

"It's already happened."

Itachi's Sharingan had appeared, and he looked at the ground under Ryugu Castle.

.....

On the other side, outside the Fish-Man Island, the Forest of the Sea

On the way to the Forest of the Sea with Shirahoshi, Luffy had already met Sanji and Chopper, as well as Hachi, who was seriously injured by Vanderdeken and was rescued by Chopper.

He also experienced a brief battle to protect Shirahoshi and also He discovered that the residents of Fishman Island had begun to hate them for unknown reasons.

However, what Luffy didn't know was that what the residents of Fish-Man Island thought was the kidnapping and trafficking of fish-people by the Straw Hats was actually done by the "wet-haired" Caribu who had been hiding on the ship.

While Luffy and the others were fighting, Caribu had set his sights on Shirahoshi.

"A single mermaid can be auctioned for 70 million beli, let alone such a huge mermaid lady."

Finally, the group of them arrived at the Sea Forest.

At the same time, Franky also found his master Tom's brother, Mermaid Dan.

Under the leadership of Dan, Franky found the washed-up Wanli Sunshine in the Forest of the Sea.

As soon as Luffy arrived at the Forest of the Sea, he found Jinbei waiting for him here.

"Here we come, Luffy. Did Prince Shark and the others bring you this message?"

"Shark Star? What Shark Star?" Luffy was puzzled.

"You came here without hearing their message. It's really strange."

What Jinbei didn't know was that as soon as Luffy and the others appeared on Fish-Man Island, they encountered Shark Star and the New Fish-Man Pirates who entered the island to pursue them after they discovered that Hammond and the others had been killed.

Luffy was in such a hurry after the battle that he didn't hear Shark Star's message.

"Oh, Princess Shirahoshi, it's been a long time no see." Jinbei hurriedly greeted Shirahoshi.

"Even... Boss Jinbei." Shirahoshi waved to Jinbei happily.

But suddenly, Jinbei realized something was wrong.

He stared so hard that his eyes almost fell out.

"Princess Shirahoshi!!! Why are you here!"

When Jinbei was shocked, Chopper was waving to Franky.

"Franky, help me move Sanji and Hachi down."

When Jinbei heard Hachi, he subconsciously looked at Mekaro's back.

Franky stepped forward to take Octopus Hachi and exclaimed in surprise: "Isn't this the octopus bastard?"

"What's up with him?"

After seeing that it was Hachi, Jinbei's eyes widened even more.

"Xiaoba! Why are you here!"

"What's the matter with your injuries?"

The more Jinbei talked, the more he felt something was wrong.

"Speaking of which, why are you on Fish-Man Island?"

"After Aaron's defeat, weren't you supposed to be captured by Marine along with them?"

Xiaoba was also confused. He held on to his injuries and asked, "Boss Jinbei, why are you here?"

At this time, Chopper was about to call Franky to move Sanji, but Sanji jumped lightly and came to Shirahoshi.

"No, I don't need to trouble you."

He looked at Shirahoshi, eyes filled with heart symbols.

"Ah...Mermaid Princess!"

"In front of you, I seem to be an incompetent painter."

"With my painting tools, I can't describe your brilliance at all!"

Sanji's operation made Shirahoshi confused.

But Chopper looked extremely excited.

"Sanji, Sanji is back in that weird state!"

"I finally have a normal reaction to women, Sanji is fine!!"

At this time, Luffy also noticed Mermaid Dan standing on the Sunshine.

Just as he was about to ask who it was, Frankie explained to him.

Luffy was relieved when he suddenly realized that something was flying towards Shirahoshi!

He jumped up to Shirahoshi and kicked away a sharp ax!

Jinbei was surprised and told Luffy about Van der Deken.

Luffy patted his chest indifferently after hearing this.

"It's okay, I'm here."

Shirahoshi hurriedly smiled and said: "Yes!"

"Princess Shirahoshi, I'm really relieved." Jinbei calmed down a little.

As he spoke, Shirahoshi looked at the tombstone deep in the forest.

That is the tomb of her mother, Princess Otohime.

After explaining to everyone, Shirahoshi came to the tombstone to worship.

Seeing this, Jinbei told Luffy and the others some experiences about Princess Shirahoshi.

At this moment, Nami and Kemi, who got on the bus, had also arrived at the Sea Forest.

Nami had already confirmed with Kemi before that Jinbei would be waiting for Luffy here.

The reason why she rushed here was to confirm with Jinbei what was most important to her.
