[Lu Qi: "Did that Pigeon-man just kill Hody Jones...???"]
Lu Fei remembered... just now in the white frame video, he and Hody Jones fought for a long time two years later, only finally taking down Hody Jones~~~
The result in the red frame video here is that Lu Fei didn't even need to personally act. It was just a few little brothers from the Qingji Work Unit who instantly killed Hody Jones...!!
This gap is too big!!!
[Hody Jones was simply discarded like trash~~~~]
[Suddenly encountering this situation, several of the new Fish-Man Pirate Group's cadres froze in place, displaying a fearful reaction—]
[But moments later, when they realized the horror of the scene, they all turned and ran!!]
["Stomp! Water Storm!!——"]
[Ka-poo raised a foot, and the powerful kick instantly made the sea in front of him surge northward, creating a terrifying pressure, then a ferocious explosion burst forth...!!!]
[Ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!!]
[Several water currents forming water blades instantly cut open the sea. With lightning speed, the remaining few dozens of the Fish-Man Pirate Group's true members were directly blown up...!!]
[Two of them died on the spot, and three others were half-dead....]
[Returning to the Thousand Sunny, Lu Qi and the other two took Domas, Gio, and Daruma, the three Fish-Men, to the interrogation room.]
[Lu Fei, Buggy, and Chopper were also here~~~]
[As former CP9 agents, Lu Qi and the others are skilled in various interrogation methods. With just a slight move, the three Fish-Men couldn't resist and spilled everything...]
[After hearing their confessions, Lu Fei was stunned: "So... you guys have already captured many human pirates? And then you plan to conquer Fish-Man Island???"]
["Yes... Yes yes yes... ah, it was actually Hody Jones who told us to do it!"]
["Now that Hody Jones is dead, we will never do such things again! Please spare us!"]
["Please let us go, we won't do anything bad again~~~"]
[The three Fish-Men cried bitterly, pleading for mercy...]
[However, Lu Fei pouted and said: "Don't misunderstand, I'm not an underwater police officer. As for your Fish-Man Tribe's affairs, I'm too lazy to bother with them~~~"]
["Ah! So that means... we can... can leave...???"]
[Hearing Lu Fei say this, Domas excitedly raised his head.]
[Lu Fei didn't pay him any mind. Instead, he said to Lu Qi beside him: "Kill them, then throw them to feed the fish~~~"]
[Lu Fei doesn't like to meddle in unnecessary affairs, but these Fish-Men originally wanted to be captured by the Straw Hat Pirate Group to act as cannon fodder to attack Fish-Man Island, which is even more evil than directly killing the Straw Hat Pirates...]
["Just for that crime, how could Lu Fei spare them?"]
[Of course, Lu Fei was too lazy to explain these things to them~~~]
[As for those human pirates they captured...]
[If it were before, Lu Fei's eyes would definitely light up!]
[But for the current Lu Fei... it's just boring~~~]
[This isn't because Lu Fei became less fond of money, but because there's no bounty to claim in the New World~~~]
[This time, before setting off for the New World, the Straw Hat Pirate Group had already done their homework~~~]
[Why is the first half of the Grand Line called Paradise?]
[That's because there are many Marine bases here, and most countries are basically allied with the World Government, and the three major Marine organizations are all here~~~]
[And the New World... can be said to be a pirate's territory!!!]
[It can almost be divided into the Four Emperors' territories and several great pirate territories...]
[As for the Marine bases...]
[According to the intelligence currently held by the Straw Hat Pirate Group, the only Marine bases they can currently understand in the New World are the New Marine Headquarters and G-5 Branch...]
[The location of the New Marine Headquarters is actually the original G-1 Branch, right next to the Red Line~~~]
[To put it plainly, it's for Mary Geoise's gatekeeping...]
[As for the G-5 Branch, this Marine base is in a very remote location. It seems that due to lack of long-term command from Marine Headquarters, Marine Headquarters doesn't even allocate funds to that side. G-5 Branch actually doesn't care about anyone~~~]
[It seems they have their own source of income...]
[So... catching pirates for bounty money is almost impossible in the New World!!!]
[Unless the Straw Hat Pirate Group climbs over mountains and rivers every time they catch a pirate to return to the first half of the Grand Line and withdraw money from a Marine base... but if that's the case, why even go to the New World? Why not just stay in Paradise and form a bounty hunter group?]
[The Thousand Sunny arrived at Fish-Man Island's Mermaid Cove, and stopped~~~]
["It really is an underwater port... You can't even see a ship at this pier..." Usopp stretched, then looked around.]
[Lu Fei chuckled: "There's a reason for that, but it's probably related to the new Fish-Man Pirate Group! During this period, almost all human pirate ships heading to the New World from the first half of the Grand Line have been taken care of by them, which is why there aren are no pirate ships here."]
[At this moment, an old Fish-Man walked towards them, holding a registration book~~~]
[Kalifa quickly walked over and paid 10,000 Berry for docking management fees. The old Fish-Man left happily and even gave them a Fish-Man Island tour guide map for free.]
[...]
[Lu Fei gave another 500 Berry, which made the old man give them 10 more tour guide maps, and then distributed them to everyone.]
[Lu Fei's main purpose is experience + travel, so for a magical place like Fish-Man Island, if he doesn't have a good time, what's the point???]
[Usopp carried a box of Berry over, and Kalifa was responsible for recording and distributing.]
[Everyone received their activity funds, and then went to play freely...]
["Strange, Sanji actually didn't clamor to go with Nami, Robin, and Kalifa..."]
[Looking at the back of Sanji, Brook, and Usopp, Zoro was utterly puzzled~~~]
[Chopper jumped onto Zoro's neck and immediately said, "I heard them say they want to hunt down people under 200 pounds."]
["Huh..."]
[Zoro's mouth twitched~~~]
["Alright~! This perverted cook is still the same old him!"]
[Lu Fei reminded him: "Chopper, you go with Sanji. When he starts bleeding heavily, you have to rescue him in time."]
["Ah... understood!"]
[Chopper was instantly startled, then immediately chased after Sanji and Zoro.]
[Sanji, who was ahead, turned his head and saw Zoro and Chopper coming. He quickly pulled Brook and Usopp: "Run quickly! The mermaids there are all ours, we're not showing them to them!"]
["I want to go see Fish-Man Street. The map shows a giant ship called Noah..."]
[Franky pointed at the large ship icon on the tour map, looking very interested~~~]
[Then he took his little sisters away.]
["Wait for me, I'll go see it with you!"]
[Buggy saw the situation and immediately followed.]
["Cap, do you three want to find a place to eat some delicious food? It's just right to take this old man with you~~~"]
["Then let's go..."]
[Lu Qi heard this and also felt that Cap was more compatible with them~~~]
["Oh, Grandpa, aren't you coming with me?" Seeing Cap walk away, Nami shouted.]
["You guys play by yourselves!"]
[Cap wasn't an idiot; how could he not see Nami's feelings for Lu Fei...]
[Wasn't he staying behind to be a big lightbulb?]
["I'm going to the Sea Forest!! The map says there's a rock here left from 800 years ago. It might be true history, so I'm going to take a look~~~"]
[Robin also didn't want to be a lightbulb, so she left for a good reason.]
[However, Nami suddenly grabbed her arm: "Sister Robin, come eat with us, then we'll hang out for a while and go to the Sea Forest with you!"]
[Although Robin's strength is already very strong, this is, after all, a place deep under the sea. Nami was worried that Robin might encounter danger alone, so she just pulled her along~~~]
[Arriving at the exit of the pier, Lu Fei and the others spent 300 Berry to buy three Bubble Coral Rings~~~]
[This kind of Bubble Coral Ring is a bubble from Fish-Man Island's Bubble Reef. It can be fixed on a person's waist.]
[In dry areas, it allows people to float off the ground, making movement easier~~~]
[When encountering deep water pressure, it can directly shrink the body, forming an air bubble membrane. People can breathe inside for a certain period of time~~~]
[Coral Hill...]
[Life abounds here, and on many large corals, there are buildings with Fish-Man Island characteristics. The Mermaid Cafe is one of the very famous restaurants here!!!]
[When the so-called mermaid delicacies were served, Lu Fei was instantly stunned!]
[Coral jelly egg cakes, deep-sea small green fruits, seaweed salad...]
["Meat????" Lu Fei unconsciously asked.]
[As his voice fell, all the mermaids who were eating unconsciously looked at him~~~]
["Oops!!"]
[Nami actually made a shushing gesture to Lu Fei, then whispered, "Keep your voice down, Lu Fei... I just found out that restaurants here don't serve meat..."]
[Nami pushed the restaurant's menu in front of Lu Fei.]
[Robin also whispered a reminder: "Don't mention meat here. It's estimated that Fish-Men don't eat meat, and certainly not fish meat, so mentioning meat here is a bit offensive to the local residents."]
[Perceiving the gazes of the surrounding Fish-Men, Lu Fei immediately understood. He scratched his head: "What? Did I say something wrong? You mean I shouldn't have let my belly stick out?"]
[Saying that, he pulled Nami's short top down with his hand and rubbed it, covering his belly~~~]
["Eh~?"]
[Nami's expression gradually solidified, then turned into a bewildered expression...]
[Robin clutched her mouth, secretly chuckling~~~]
[The surrounding Fish-Men realized they had misheard, so they no longer looked at Lu Fei and moved on.]
[However... in a private room on the second floor, the owner of the Mermaid Cafe, Madam Shirley, saw this scene and was suddenly startled!!!]
[She recognized Straw Hat Lu Fei at a glance!!!]
[Fish-Man Island is located deep under the sea, so it is basically isolated from the world.]
[The Fish-Men living here basically have difficulty obtaining information from the outside world. Only a few people with special channels can know about major events happening outside.]
[Madam Shirley is one of them!]
[When she saw Lu Fei's appearance, her delicate body trembled violently!]
[This... this this this... This is the culprit who killed the Five Elders!]
[Of course, Madam Shirley wouldn't know that Lu Fei's real bounty is...]
["Why would a man like him appear on our Fish-Man Island..."]
[Madam Shirley's heart was filled with endless anxiety~~~]
[She habitually took out a crystal ball and began to divine~~~]
[As the crystal ball emitted light, the black and white of her eyes all disappeared, turning into the form of crystal!!]
[Moments later...]
["Ah!!"]
[Madam Shirley gasped in surprise, and her whole body was drenched in sweat!]
[Looking at Lu Fei again, Madam Shirley's eyes were filled with terror...]
Usopp: "Could it be that the future Madam Shirley saw in the red frame video is the same as in the white frame video? Did they all see Fish-Man Island's future ruined because of Lu Fei??"
Roronoa Zoro: "Looking at this situation, it's very likely!"
Nami: "How could this be? How could Lu Fei destroy Fish-Man Island??"
Gol D. Roger: "It shouldn't be Lu Fei who destroys it, right? I remember Madam Shirley in the white frame video just said that Fish-Man Island would be destroyed because of Lu Fei, but how exactly it's destroyed, it shouldn't be what everyone imagines!"
[After Lu Fei and the others finished their meal, Lu Fei suggested going to Fish-Man Street to find Franky.]
["Actually, you just want to eat meat, right?!" Robin actually saw through Lu Fei.]
[No choice, Lu Fei feels uncomfortable all over if he doesn't eat meat for a meal...]
[On the way to Fish-Man Street, they also made a detour to the Sea Forest.]
["It's truly unbelievable! So deep underwater, and there's still sunlight that can reach here, forming this unique underwater forest. It's truly amazing!"]
[Nami held Lu Fei's hand, marveling as they swam~~~]
["True History!!!"]
[And at this moment, Robin suddenly pointed forward, shouting loudly, "It really is True History!!!"]
[Arriving before this piece of True History, Robin began to decipher it.]
[Nami at this moment experienced the pain of being a poor student....]
[Facing a large block of text, she didn't even want to look~~~]
[After Robin finished translating, she murmured: "This is a letter of apology... it's a letter of apology written by a person named Joyboy to the Mermaid Princess 800 years ago!!"]
[After speaking, she looked at Lu Fei.]
[But she found that Lu Fei wasn't looking at the text. Instead, he seemed to be listening intently to something...]
[Robin didn't interrupt Lu Fei's state. Instead, she pulled Nami to the side and watched from there~~~]
[After a long while, when Robin saw Lu Fei's eyes refocus, she pulled Nami back.]
["Lu Fei, you were always very fast before. Why are you so slow this time?"]
[Robin asked, somewhat puzzled.]
[They had translated two other pieces of True History before. With Lu Fei's grasp of True History translation knowledge, he had already reached a level comparable to Robin's speed!!!]
[But this time Lu Fei took so long. Robin naturally felt confused~~~]
[Lu Fei looked at Robin: "I'm listening to its story..."]
["Listening to Joyboy's repentance?" Robin asked.]
["Not just that! Back then, when this stone tablet was just carved, it told me everything about Joyboy's situation at that time!"]
["So that Mermaid Princess from 800 years ago was the Poseidon at the time. Joyboy and she made a promise to let Fish-Man Island live under true sunlight. However, Joyboy failed to fulfill this promise."]
["When Joyboy wrote this letter of apology, he was already nearing his end. And although this letter of apology filled Joyboy with immense self-reproach, what he couldn't reconcile the most was the promise he made to the Mermaid Princess alone!!!"]
[Lu Fei calmly recounted the True History and other things the stone tablet told him.]
["Joyboy's promise to the Mermaid Princess alone? What is it?" Intense curiosity simultaneously appeared on Robin and Nami's faces~~~]
