Chapter 63 Princess Shirahoshi
While waiting for Yamato and Neptune to finish their conversation, Luo Ji and his group returned in less than an hour.
"Captain Luo Ji, are they really those guys from the New Fishman Pirates?"
What did you do to Hody Jones and the others? Were there any other casualties?
Shirley quickly asked, but she already had a pretty good idea of the answer in her mind.
Given the captain's vengeful nature, those who dared to assassinate him would not have a good end.
"Those guys have been dealt with, don't worry. They didn't harm any other murlocs, and I even made some good gains."
Luo Ji and the others jumped back from the flying crane onto the giant head of the fire-breathing dragon.
"What did you gain? Luo Ji, you went on an adventure without taking me with you!"
Yamato rushed over to ask what was wrong, clearly angry that he had missed a great adventure.
"We caught a despicable fellow who threatened the mermaid princess and also learned some of the truth about Queen Otohime's murder."
Luo Ji spoke calmly to Xia Li and Neptune, his expression intriguing, which caused Neptune's face to change.
"Captain Luo Ji, have you captured Van der Deiken?"
Furthermore, is there some hidden story behind Otohime's murder?
Neptune asked anxiously, "Back then, when Otohime was shot by a human pirate, that pirate was executed on the spot by a royal army. What other secrets are there?"
"That's right! I have indeed captured Vander Decken. From now on, Princess Shirahoshi will no longer need to hide in the Dragon Palace."
As for the matter concerning Queen Otohime, Princess Shirahoshi is probably aware of it as well.
"I wonder if I could meet Princess Shirahoshi?"
Luo Ji released a lot of information directly. He wanted to get to know Bai Xing better, become Bai Xing's older brother first, and then get the secondary command of the Super Sea King.
"Thank you, Captain Luo Ji. We will never forget your kindness."
Neptune pondered for a moment, but still agreed to Luo Ji's request. Actually, he was a little worried, afraid that Luo Ji might have ulterior motives for getting close to Bai Xing.
After all, Neptune was aware of Shirahoshi's special abilities.
"Great! We can go to the legendary Dragon Palace and even meet the mermaid princess that even the Roger Pirates never saw!"
Yamato has always maintained a positive spirit of exploration and is full of curiosity about everything.
She forgot her slight annoyance at Luo Ji not including her in the game in the blink of an eye.
"Let's go! Let's see this legendary Dragon Palace."
Under Luo Ji's command, the Luo Ji Pirates cheered. Xiao Yu commanded the clumsy dragon, Fire-Breathing Dragon, to take off and follow Neptune's whale mount, slowly flying towards the Dragon Palace.
The fire-breathing dragon was twice the size of the whale Hoai, and its imposing presence as it flew through the sky caused countless mermaids and fish-men to look up at the heavens.
"Is that really a dragon?"
Countless people were shocked, after all, this was a legendary creature.
Luo Ji and his group were also very surprised by the dragon-shaped architecture of the Dragon Palace Royal City.
It resembles a real divine dragon, coiled above the Dragon Palace Royal City.
Its size is so large that it is longer and larger than Kaido's complete form.
When Yamato first saw it, she almost thought it was Kaido of the Beasts who had come in person.
The shape is so similar.
There's only a slight difference in color.
"Could it be that the original source of the Mythical Zoan-type Azure Dragon Fruit's power is the Dragon Palace Royal Castle on Fish-Man Island?"
"Or perhaps, countless years ago, Fishman Island produced a powerful user of the Azure Dragon Fruit?"
"This is amazing!"
···
The members of the Luo Ji Pirates exclaimed in amazement, and even Luo Ji himself was very interested in these secrets.
Which came first, these mythical beasts, which were worshipped by all races, and which led to the formation of Devil Fruit abilities?
The idea is that all races will imagine the mythical beasts and then gradually combine their willpower to truly revive them.
A grand banquet was held at the behest of King Neptune.
This was a warm welcome to the Luo Ji Pirates, and also a celebration of Princess Shirahoshi's regained freedom.
Mermaids of various lineages appeared one by one at this grand banquet.
The various tail patterns reveal their lineage.
The reproduction of fish-men and mermaids is unique. Each person only displays one bloodline, but possesses many bloodlines. When they combine, they may give birth to all sorts of types of mermaids or fish-men.
Children and parents may look completely different.
Goldfish mermaids may give birth to shark mermaids, or even shark fish-men.
Even parents are unsure which bloodline their offspring will exhibit.
Fish give birth to nine offspring, each one different.
Merfolk and fish-men can also reproduce with races such as humans and giants.
Its adaptability is frighteningly strong.
If Luo Ji and Xia Li have children, they might produce human-mermaid hybrids, human-mermaid hybrids, and various other unpredictable merman offspring.
After all, Shirley possesses ancestral genes from many different fish-people and mermaids.
Like the triplets Katakuri, Daifuku, and Oven of the Big Mom Pirates, Katakuri has fish-man blood.
···
As the banquet progressed, Princess Shirahoshi, under the protection of the three Shark Star brothers, left the Hard Shell Tower.
Six years later, Shirahoshi finally reappeared before everyone.
Bai Xing, who hadn't interacted with many people in six years, hadn't matured much psychologically and was extremely timid.
At 12 years old, Bai Xing was not as tall as he was at 16, when he was 11 meters tall, but he was already eight or nine meters tall.
The mountain is still in its early stages of development and has not yet reached its future world-class scale.
But this adorable face already has the makings of a world-class beauty.
"so big!"
"So beautiful!"
"So cute!"
The women of the Luo Ji Pirates were all attracted to the beauty of this pink-haired mermaid.
"No wonder she has the potential to compete with the Pirate Empress for the title of the world's most beautiful woman."
Luo Ji was also amazed by the beauty of this mermaid princess.
"Captain Luo Ji, Shirahoshi has come out. What are the hidden stories behind Otohime's murder back then?"
King Neptune reassured the timid White Star and quickly got to the point, as he was now eager to know the whole truth.
Luo Ji released that bastard Vander Decken IX and the corpse of Hody Jones.
"Shirahoshi, the bastard who attacked you every day has been caught. You no longer need to hide in the Hard Shell Tower. You are free."
"Also, summon your pet Mecaro. You saw this fish-man shoot Queen Otohime back then."
Luo Ji picked up Hody Jones's body, which frightened Bai Xing so much that she hid behind Neptune in fear.
"What! Hody Jones killed my mother!!"
Shark Star's eyes widened. All these years, he had believed that the human pirate was the murderer, which fueled his deep-seated resentment towards humans.
If it weren't for Queen Otohime's final instructions, he probably would have become an extreme mermaid as well.
"White Star, Mecaro, is it true?"
Neptune and the other two princes asked Shirastar in disbelief.
"My mother said, there's no need to resent the murderer or humans..."
Remembering Otohime's words, Shirahoshi spoke with tears welling in her eyes.
But everyone knew what that meant.
It turns out that the real murderer who killed Princess Otohime was Hody Jones.
He disrupted the process of friendly exchanges between humans and fish-men back then.
It destroyed all of Princess Otohime's years of hard work and even caused her death.
