Starting from pirates and conquering all worlds

Chapter 39: Fishman Island Naval Branch!

Two months have passed since Doflamingo left Mariejoia, and it was now mid-April.

However, for people living on the Grand Line, months are really just months and have nothing to do with climate and seasons.

Moreover, the World Conference in June is getting closer and closer.

"Your Majesty, since February of this year, the number of incidents of human pirates breaking in and trying to kidnap mermaids has been increasing. It has become more and more serious since this month. Four incidents occurred in just two weeks. Fortunately, the Sea King Army caught up with the general in time. They were rescued, but more than a hundred soldiers were injured. Wei Chen feels that if this continues, the situation will get worse."

In the luxurious hall of Dragon Palace City on Fish-Man Island, the left minister of the Catfish Fishman looked at King Neptune on the stage with worry.

"It's all because of the rumor about One Piece's great treasure..."

King Neptune covered his forehead in distress. Now this rumor was so widespread that even he, who was ten thousand meters under the sea, knew about it.

"But what can we do? The basic strength of fishmen is indeed ten times that of humans, but how can those human pirates who have traveled all the way through the first half of the Grand Route and arrived here be ordinary people?"

"In the final analysis, we still don't have a strong person to take charge..."

After hearing the king's words, Minister Zuo had nothing to say. The soldiers of the Sea King Army are not weak, but they are just not weak. Let alone the 'New World', even in the 'Paradise' they are not very powerful.

"General, please pay homage to Your Majesty!"

At this moment, the right minister of the Seahorse Mermaid hurried in and reported: "Your Majesty, the World Government's ships and naval warships are waiting for entry outside the main gate."

"Please come in quickly!"

King Neptune's eyes lit up and his mood gradually became excited. He had a hunch that the current troubles facing Fish-Man Island would be solved soon.

After half an hour that made the mermaid king extremely tormented, Coulson and a tall naval commander, whom he had met before, walked into the hall.

"Welcome, welcome, welcome Director Colson to visit our Fish-Man Island again!" King Neptune looked very happy and enthusiastic.

"Long time no see, His Majesty the King." Colson showed his signature smile and then introduced the people around him.

"This is Vice Admiral Aokiji from the Navy Headquarters, and he is also the newly promoted general."

Kuzan looked at the giant mermaid king sitting on the throne and greeted him politely, "Hello, I am Kuzan. Please give me your advice in the future."

"Uh, hello, hello." King Neptune didn't know what to say, so he turned to Colson and asked, "Why are you two here this time...?"

Coulson kept a gentle smile on his face.

"According to the previously signed "Communique on the Establishment of Equal and Friendly Relations between Humans and the Mermaid Tribe and the Murloc Tribe," I have brought Marie Joa and all the merfolk and murloc tribes in the participating countries. Your Majesty can send personnel to receive them."

"real?"

King Neptune immediately stood up and excitedly ordered Minister Zuo on the side to go over.

"Take someone to see it quickly!"

"Yes, Wei Chen will do it now!" Minister Zuo was also very excited.

In the past, wanting the Tianlongs and those nobles to return the mermaids they bought was simply wishful thinking and a daydream.

Seeing Minister Zuo disappear outside the hall door, King Neptune expressed his heartfelt thanks to Coulson and the World Government.

Seeing this, Kuzan sighed in his heart. Although he didn't know why, the world government seemed to have changed a lot recently.

This was true of the Drum Kingdom, and it was true of this Fish-Man Island. These were all acts of justice that he had witnessed with his own eyes and even participated in.

This made Kuzan, whose blood had not yet cooled down, unknowingly have a much better impression of the World Government.

Colson waited for King Neptune's excitement to calm down and spoke again: "Your Majesty, in addition to helping with the escort this time, Lieutenant General Aokiji is also preparing to build a naval branch on Fish-Man Island. In the next few years, He will be responsible for the relevant matters.”

"Navy Division!"

King Neptune was stunned, and immediately remembered that there was indeed such an article in the communique, and asked: "How many people will the navy station here, and where will the branch be built?"

Coulson did not reply to this question, but Kuzan was responsible for the answer: "The tentative plan is that I will bring the first batch of one thousand headquarters navy to the Fish-Man Island. After the construction of the main facilities of the branch is completed, follow-up Four thousand marines will be stationed."

After he finished speaking, Coulson continued.

"The construction project of the Navy branch is handled by the construction team brought by our administrative department. As for the location of the branch, we still need to wait for professional inspections before making a decision. I hope that Fishman Island can provide some support."

"Hahaha, of course there is no problem, but I thought you would not come here until at least after the World Conference." King Neptune laughed heartily.

"If everything goes well, according to the construction period, construction will start from now and it will be almost completed after the World Conference." Colson smiled.

"I see!"

"Then where will Vice Admiral Aokiji and the navy be stationed before the branch facilities are completed?" King Neptune asked doubtfully.

Kuzan replied: "During this period, we will live in the warship to ensure that it will not affect the residents."

"How can this be done? Although our Fish-Man Island is not big, we still have enough space to accommodate a thousand people!"

King Neptune was naturally unwilling to treat Kuzan and the navy so poorly. He knew very well that his citizens would be dependent on each other's protection for a long time to come.

"In this way, Minister Zuo, you can temporarily station the navy in Shuiche Town in the north, and then let the craftsmen quickly build a batch of shell houses!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"That would be troublesome."

Kuzan thanked him politely, and then followed the orange-skinned Seahorse Minister out, but Coulson who stayed behind did not leave immediately.

"Your Majesty Neptune, according to the communiqué, Fishman Island can also station troops in the Shampoo Islands. We have vacated area 62."

King Neptune scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said with a smile: "Ah, well... I'm sorry, we thought this matter would not be carried out until after the World Conference, so we haven't had time to discuss it yet."

Coulson didn't care, just nodded, and continued: "There is also the matter of sending mermaids or fishmen to join the World Government, the Navy and other departments. This time I brought the number and number of fishmen that the Navy wants to introduce. List of Important Murlocs.”

"Oh? Tell me!" King Neptune was curious about how many murlocs the navy would allow to join, and who the so-called main murlocs were.

"The Navy Headquarters will introduce the first batch of 200 fishmen or mermaids. Among them, the mermaids will mainly work as civilians, while the murlocs will form the murloc force."

As he spoke, Coulson took out a piece of white paper from his arms and recorded the names of several fishmen on it.

"The important mermaids are Fisher Tiger, Jinbe, and Aladdin."

When King Neptune heard these three names, he was stunned at first, and then looked confused, "I've heard of Fisher Tiger, but Jinbe, Aladdin, who are these?"

"According to intelligence, the twenty-two-year-old whale shark man Jinbei and the multi-bearded weasel fish man Aladdin are serving in your Sea King Army."

Outside, Minister Zuo, who had a catfish face, looked at the mermaids and fishmen who came off the World Government's ship strangely.

They don't look like much on the outside, no injuries, disabilities or anything like that, but aren't their cheerful, smiling faces a bit too optimistic?

They were slaves before.

However, Minister Zuo could only shake his head in the end, thinking that these people were too happy.

After all, being able to return to Fish-Man Island alive is indeed something to be thankful for...
