Chapter 20 - Fishman Ninja

Kingdom Of Demacia

POV Markon

It has been 15 days since Myne and the others left. I have been occupied with the carnivores on the island. I have also been crafting two daggers made out of the fangs of the giant monkey. With the help of Rengar, I finished the two daggers which helped me greatly with hunting. 

Kisame left the island two days after Myne and the trade group left, as Rengar wanted to fight someone. In the end, Rengar won after fighting for two days. Some parts of the island are now unlivable, because of the destruction made by the two.

As I stood up, ready to go for another hunt, a ding sound suddenly resonated beside me. 

[An offering has been made by a summon named Myne!

Offering: 600 million barries]

I smiled as I stared at the 600 million barries given by Myne, "Hahahahahaha! 600 million of gambling money!"

I ordered Orlon to check the prices for the temple I was gonna build for Aurelion Sol. I sighed as I found out that most of the temple cost 1 to 5 billion barries. It'll take some time for me to build such a large-scale project. 

However, although I couldn't build the temple, I could still build a ship for Rengar. 

"Those bastards. I told them to get me a wanted list so Rengar could go hunt them."

As I pondered how I could send Rengar off with bounty posters, I suddenly remembered that I had Orlon.

"Orlon, give me a quest that will have a reward for a book that has all the wanted posters."

[Quest: Build a Ship for Rengar!

Duration: 10 days

Reward: Known islands map and Bounty posters book.]

I made my way to the builder and asked him to build a ship for Rengar. The ship was a large-sized ship with cells inside of it so Rengar could capture some pirates.

The ship would be finished in 10 minutes, and in the meantime, I told Rengar what he needed to do.

"Here, take these. This one is a log pose that will help you traverse this world and be able to come back here whenever you want. The other one is a necklace that negates petricite and allows you to sail in the fog around the island. And lastly, this one is a Den Den Mushi, you can use it anytime to call me or the others." 

As the boat finished, Rengar left with the biggest grin a man could have or a lion??

I went to the front of my house, put my hands on my hips, and said, "What now?"

There is nothing else to do currently, and with Rengar gone, I can't have spars with anyone. I quickly got inside and thought of things to do, training would be fine, but it doesn't feel as fulfilling as a real battle.

"Hey Orlon, you got any suggestion on what I should do next?"

[You are now a king, and people will live in your kingdom. You and your people cannot live in one house alone, make a sustainable kingdom with dwellings.]

"Hmmm. Sure why not? Orlon, give me a mission about making petricite houses]

[Warning! The petricite trees need to regrow as most have been used for the wall]

"Hmm? Well, let's go plant some"

Running towards the petricite border, I witness the now diminishing petricite trees. There were only a few of them comparable to when I first came here.

"Ok, so how do we plant them?"

[Petricite trees can be planted using the leaves.]

"Simple enough"

-1 month later-

"Why won't these shit grow?!"

The Sea

A blue ship with a design resembling that of a fish and a golly roger of the sun could be seen sailing the vast sea with only Fishmen on board.

A giant Fishman around 9'8 stood tall on the front of the ship and halted everyone, "Someone's coming."

"What is it Jinbe? Do you know them or something?" Said Aladine, the vice-captain of the Sun pirate.

 As Aladine asked, a shadow suddenly appeared underwater and was rising to the surface every second. Everyone stopped the party they currently had and got serious. They all stood up and went to the front of the ship, with the ship halting.

The shadow finally rose, after waiting a couple of seconds that felt like years. A Fishman with blue skin and small eyes with a sinister grin came out of the waters and greeted the Sun pirates, "Well, hello there. I finally found Fishmen after searching for a month."

"A Fishman?" Asked one of the crewmates

"Who are you?! State your name!" Yelled Aladine

Kisame giggled and said, "My name is Kisame, a wandering Fishman looking for the Ryugu Kingdom."

"And why is that?" Asked Aladine

Kisame gritted his teeth and frowned, "M-My island has been destroyed. Every Fishman was taken and enslaved by men wearing masks. They took me and enslaved me, marking me with this." Kisame rose more and showed his back. A circle with 3 pointy marks on top and one on the bottom was shown.

Everyone on the ship seemed angered and pitied Kisame. Kisame continues, "I managed to escape by defeating some of them. I was on an island a month back and that's when I heard about a kingdom for fish-folks like us… Is that perhaps true?" 

Jinbe felt pity towards Kisame. He smiled and offered Kisame a helping hand, "Come with us. We are Fishmen who live in the Ryugu Kingdom. We would gladly help you in your journey."

Kisame smiled and hopped on the ship. Everyone bombarded him with questions, but he only answered one.

"What's your name?" Asked Jinbe

"My name is Kisame"

"Is that so? My name is Jinbe, the captain of the Sun Pirate."

The two shook hands and Aladine asked a question, "If you don't mind me asking, Kisame, how did you beat those masked guys."

Kisame looked at Aladine for a few seconds with a gloomy face and said, "I am a ninja. The only ninja in the village."

Everyone had a shocked face, especially the men.

"T-Truly?" Asked Jinbe

Even Jinbe, the calm and collective captain of the Sun Pirate wanted to see a ninja in person. Kisame smiled and nodded, performing a ninjutsu in front of them. With a hand seal, a clone suddenly appeared right next to him.

Aladine widened his eyes and yelled,

"It's true! A Fishman ninja!!!"
