Fish-man Island, Ryugu Palace, Guest Hall.
"Although I don't know why the navy wants to name two important fish-men to be introduced, since the other party requests it, and considering this rare friendly cooperation between humans and our Fish-man Island, as the King, I still hope that the two of them can consider agreeing."
King Neptune was sitting on the throne and expressed his request sincerely to Jimbei and Aladine who were wearing the uniforms of the Ammo Knights in the audience.
Jimbei and Aladdin looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes, and then spoke in unison with a tacit understanding.
"Your Majesty, we are willing to accept the navy's invitation and contribute to the equal friendship between Fish-man people and humans."
"Ha, ha, ha, ha!"
King Neptune was greatly pleased after hearing this, and he burst out with a heroic laugh and said: "That's great, thank you, thank you, thank you so much!"
"Then I will introduce the details personally."
"According to the Navy, after the two of you go to Marineford, Jimbei will be given the rank of Commander of the headquarters and serve as the leader of the newly formed Fish-man unit. While Aladine will be the lieutenant Commander of the headquarters and serve as assistant to the leader of the Fish-man unit."
"The two of them will also be responsible for teaching Fish-man Karate to the marines stationed here. At the same time, the Marine Base here will also teach fencing to all the Fish-man. This is also one of the practical contents that represent equal cooperation."
Hearing this, Jimbei said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, with my level of Fish-man Karate, it should be difficult to teach them something. Compared with Brother Tiger, he is more qualified."
He is twenty-two years old this year, and he does have some shortcomings in terms of strength, but it would be purely self-effacing to say that he cannot teach the marines Fish-man Karate.
"Fisher Tiger, didn't he go out on an adventure again? He hasn't come back yet." King Neptune said helplessly.
"When he comes back, I will have a good talk. Maybe you can meet in Marineford by then. In the meantime, you, Jimbei, will be in charge, okay?"
"This is it, Your Majesty, I will do my best!" Jimbei saw that the king was like this and no longer shied away.
Aladine on the side had no objection. He and Jimbei were good friends, and he knew very well that there was a big gap between the two in terms of talent and strength.
However, he is very interested in human swordsmanship.
"Your Majesty!"
At this moment, the Minister of the Left entered. King Neptune smiled and said: "Minister of the Left, what's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, the administrative construction team sent by the World Government has decided on the location of the Marine Branch and is starting construction."
"Oh, where is it?" King Neptune asked curiously, while Jimbei and Aladine were also paying attention.
"Near the Mermaid Cove, the reason is that the main target of pirates is the mermaid, so the Marine Base is located there to protect the mermaids nearby, and there is a surface of land, where the sun still shines and is suitable for human life" Minister of the Left said.
In this Fish-man Island, from top to bottom, it is divided into the aristocratic area where Ryugu Palace is located, the civilian area on the surface, and the dark area underwater. It is obvious that the main factor that distinguishes these levels is sunlight.
The closer the place is to the sun, the nobler it is!
King Neptune smiled and said: "They have chosen a good place. Okay, let's do this. Let our craftsmen go over and help. People in the World Government may not be familiar with the environment here."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The Minister of the Left was about to go deal with it after receiving the order. At this moment, a soldier from the Ammo Knight ran in, then half-knelt down towards King Neptune and reported loudly.
"Your Majesty, there has been an incident in Mermaid Cove where Fish-men maliciously attacked a human construction team!"
"What?!"
King Neptune, the Minister of the left, and Jimbei were all shocked. Everyone knew that if it was too serious, they would probably face the wrath and sanctions of the World Government.
Although the attitude of the World Government has become much friendlier recently, it does not mean that they have ignored their past strength and domineering qualities.
"Minister of the Left, please take someone to see it quickly!"
"Ah, yes, I'll go right away!" The Minister of the Left realized and responded hurriedly. At this time, Jimbei on the side said: "Your Majesty, can you let Aladine and I follow you and take a look?"
"Yes, yes, yes, since the navy values you two, it will definitely help if you go!" King Neptune was a little panicked at this time.
Soon, the Minister of the Left led Jimbei, Aladine and a group of thirty Ammo Knights to the civilian area. Only King Neptune and the Ammo Knights soldiers standing guard on both sides were left in the hall.
"Hey, I hope nothing serious happens."
A sigh spread throughout this extremely luxurious Ryugu Palace.
Twenty minutes ago, Mermaid Cove.
As the construction team of the Administration Department selected a location, hundreds of human workers in uniforms began to clean up and tidy up the environment of the construction site, and at the same time pulled pieces of construction machinery and equipment from the ship through vehicles.
Such a lively atmosphere naturally attracted the attention and curiosity of many merfolk and fish-men nearby. They had never seen so many humans since they were born.
"What are those iron monsters? They also roar!"
"They all wear the same clothes, just like the Ammo Knights. It's so interesting~"
"I heard that they are from that World Government, and they even sent back the Fish-man who were captured before!"
"But what are they going to do?"
One graceful and elegant mermaid was submerged in the water, while another was sitting sideways on a shell. Her beautiful eyes looked at the construction team coming and going and the navy guarding the area nearby.
At the same time, after hearing the news, the number of Fish-man who wanted to come over and take a look gradually increased. Their shapes became cruder and stranger, and there was almost no standard size. Some were three or four meters tall, while others were only One or two meters.
But what these merfolk and fish-men didn't notice was that their existence was also a rare visual feast for humans such as the construction team and the navy.
To these humans, who are basically all male, the mermaids in the bay are like being in a dream in a fairy tale. They are simply beautiful. The key is that all of them are wearing bikinis.
As for the fish-men, they only glanced at them briefly to learn about the strange species in this world, and then continued to focus on the mermaids.
The result was that neither the construction crew workers nor the Navy soldiers noticed the malicious and disdainful glances of some of the Fish-man in the crowd.
"Arlong, how come there are so many of these despicable humans?" The Fish-man put a hand in the pocket of his shorts and whispered in disgust.
"Indeed, what are those Ammo Knights troops doing?" kuroobi, who had a pair of huge fins on his strong arms, was also dissatisfied.
"It must be some kind of cooperation between Ryugu Palace and these inferior species." Arlong, who is seventeen years old, clenched his fists angrily, and his eyes were a little red.
They are all orphans who grew up in the Fish-man District in a dark area and were abandoned by their parents. Therefore, whether it is the environment or human nature, they have been exposed to the darkest side since childhood.
Especially Arlong, when he was a child, he yearned for the sunshine and all the beauty in the rumored human world. However, as he grew up, the humans he saw were all evil, despicable, and even cowardly.
He gradually accepted the view that humans are an inferior race and Fish-man are a superior race. He felt that humans were so weak and inferior creatures were not worthy of enjoying those beautiful things and were not even qualified to be on an equal footing with the Fish-man.
"We can't let them succeed; we have to stop this!"
