A certain scientific pirate

The environment of Fishman Island is very unique. The special light conditions cause a huge plant community to grow in a certain area on the seabed. The colors of these undersea plants are very distinct. Looking from a distance, they look like watercolor paintings drawn by children. The green plants form a strong contrast with the surrounding environment.

This is the waterless underwater forest wrapped in giant bubbles, the "Umino Forest".

At a certain time of the day, because the transpiration of the underwater forest suddenly becomes active, the water density in the air also increases, and the entire sea forest will be shrouded in a thin mist, coupled with the ambient light The changes will make the place become hazy, the abrupt feeling caused by the color contrast will be erased, and the place will become like a fairy tale world.

Somewhere in the forest of the sea, the huge mermaid princess was kneeling in front of a small tombstone, seemingly crying silently.

This is the cemetery of Princess Otohime and the mother of the Mermaid Princess who died from a gunshot attack ten years ago.

The forest, which can be called a breathtaking scenery, is completely silent. Occasionally, the sound of ocean currents can be heard from far away, and occasionally the cry of whales can be heard that seems to be particularly ethereal.

Everyone has their own things to carry. Only she understands those emotions rooted in the deepest part of her heart. The understanding and empathy from others are often just an illusion caused by sympathy, or it can be said that she thinks she "empathizes" a lot. Time is quite cheap, because it is just "self-thinking".

So Mo Fei, who had already arrived here, did not rush forward to disturb her. This was Princess Bai Xing's own time. He is not the kind of person who is particularly easily infected by other people's emotions, but... in this quiet environment, it would be nice to enjoy the scenery of the deep sea in a quieter way.

Shirahoshi knew the inside story of her mother's death, but because of Princess Otohime's dying request to "not tell anyone," she had kept the matter secretly buried in her heart for many years.

After a while, after Bai Xing had sorted out his emotions, Mo Fei, who had already finished admiring the scenery of the Forest of the Sea, chose to show up... A long time ago, there seemed to be a piece of wood placed in the Forest of the Sea on Fish-Man Island. The red road sign has the text of history, but now the stone has disappeared, leaving only the confession of "Joy Boy".

"Princess Bai Xing," Mo Fei came to the side of the mermaid princess. He first glanced at the tombstone, then raised his head to glance at Bai Xing's face, and finally turned his eyes to the distant sky as if nothing had happened, "Today's weather seems good. .”

"Lord Mo Fei, why are you in the Forest of the Sea?" Bai Xing's eyes were still stained with tears. After seeing Mo Fei, she subconsciously asked, and then she seemed to understand, and her expression immediately became a little shy. He became anxious, "Did Father ask you to come to me?"

According to King Neptune's request, Shirahoshi must not leave the Hard Shell Tower, not to mention that now she has directly left Ryugu City and came to the Forest of the Sea. Ever since she was a child, Bai Xing has always obeyed her parents. Judging from her shy and timid character, she is a "good baby" type of child, so this is the first time she has disobeyed her father's orders, which is considered a breakthrough. It was an important stage in her life, so she seemed a little uneasy and even feared that King Neptune would be angry about it... From this perspective, Straw Hat was indeed "heinous" and he was leading a good boy into a rebellious period.

"It is indeed King Neptune who asked me to look for you, but the situation in Dragon Palace City is more complicated now, and I can't explain it in a sentence or two... Oh, the other side of the Sea Forest is bustling, it seems like it's me Colleagues have arrived here." Mo Fei just wanted to explain to Bai Xing what happened in Ryugu Castle during the short time she "ran away from home" and the fact that her father, King Neptune, was caught by pirates, but she felt the power of the sea. There was movement from the other side of the forest.

After coming to Otohime's cemetery to express her thoughts and sadness, Shirahoshi finally realized her wish... Because of the harassment of the pirate Vander Duncan, she was unable to even attend her mother's funeral ten years ago, so this is She came to her mother's grave for the first time... After achieving her goal, she began to consider the consequences of disobeying her father's orders, and the courage she had summoned before was almost exhausted.

"Lord Mo Fei, I'm very sorry for leaving Dragon Palace City suddenly... Is my father very angry now?" Bai Xing thought he was a child who had done something wrong, so he apologized directly to Mo Fei at this time. This was actually a bit reckless. Even if she wanted to apologize, she couldn't apologize to Mo Fei.

"King Neptune? He's not angry. He's just very worried about your safety, Princess Bai Xing. At this time, Dragon Palace City is already in chaos," Mo Fei said.

After being attacked by Hody Jones and believing that Shirahoshi was abducted by Straw Hat Luffy, how could Neptune be angry with Shirahoshi at this time? He was really just extremely worried about Shirahoshi.

However, Mo Fei's ambiguous statement made Bai Xing's uneasy mood turn into guilt.

"See, I have brought a lot of trouble to everyone. I'm sorry, Father, I'm sorry, everyone in Dragon Palace City..."

As she said this, Princess Bai Xing was about to burst into tears again.

"Well, the chaos in Dragon Palace City has little to do with you..." However, before Mo Fei could finish his explanation, Bai Xing's expression froze instantly.

Because she acquiesced that her behavior of leaving Dragon Palace City was wrong, and because her private actions would bring a lot of trouble to everyone, when Mo Fei appeared in front of her, she acquiesced that she would follow him back to Dragon Palace City, so When Mo Fei was talking and walking towards the outskirts of the Forest of the Sea, she followed him closely.

When he was about to leave the forest, Bai Xing immediately saw the navy team fighting with the Straw Hats - this was what Mo Fei said was "lively".

The pirate ship Sonny was "stranded" here, so half of the members of the Straw Hat Pirates were also gathered here, including Straw Hat Luffy himself, Franky, Sanji, Chopper, and others who sold their teammates from Ryugu Castle and fled directly. Nami.

In addition, there are two mermaids and one murloc here, namely 'Dan', a shipwright and researcher of the forest of the sea, the younger brother of the famous shipwright Tom, Kaixia Jinbei, the former captain of the Shichibukai and the Sun Pirates. The Straw Hats' good friend, the mermaid Kemi...

There should be others coming later.

On the Navy side, Zhan Momomaru led a team of sailors here, plus Mo Fei on the other side... Compared to the "talented" group of pirates, the Navy side seemed relatively weak.

However, the pirates seemed to follow the rules. At this time, only Zhan Momomaru was fighting Luffy, while the others were having a tense confrontation with the sailors... Well, the sailors simply felt nervous.

Not to mention anything else, the name "Original Shichibukai" alone is enough to make them feel very nervous. Although the original Shichibukai seems to be planning to sit back and watch, who knows when he will suddenly take action?

It wasn't until Luffy in his normal state was slapped away by Zhan Momomaru that Shirahoshi realized, "What happened here? Why is Lord Luffy fighting with someone?"

Bai Xing was a little frightened by the battle in front of her. As she spoke, she planned to run over there.

Mo Fei stretched out her hand to stop her, "Princess Baixing, the people over there are not taking any action lightly. It's better for us to watch the battle here. As for what happened here... there is a very simple truth like this. , friends of friends are not necessarily friends.

One side is a pirate and the other side is a navy, so fighting is normal. "

Then their voices were immediately noticed by the people over there. Franky, who was nearest, turned his head this way, and he saw Princess Bai Xing and Mo Fei standing next to Princess Bai Xing.

The mermaid princess + the person standing next to the mermaid princess is the navy = the mermaid princess was kidnapped by the navy. In an instant, this conversion was completed in Franky's mind.

"Princess Shirahoshi!"

Franky yelled and then rushed towards Mo Fei. Originally, it was possible for the two parties to communicate, but unfortunately Luffy had already started fighting with Zhan Momomaru, so there was nothing to hesitate at this time.

In the blink of an eye, a pair of huge iron fists had hit Mo Fei.

However, facing this exaggerated attack, Mo Fei just dodged slightly and stretched out her palm to pat Franky's steel forearm.

"Cybomorph Franky, it's a pity... you chose the wrong opponent. To me, the more exaggerated your body modification is, the less scary it is."

"What's the meaning?"

Franky naturally felt that Mo Fei's words seemed inexplicable.

This means that as a modified person, the weight of the steel parts on Franky's body must have long exceeded the weight of his physical body.

Mo Fei just smiled without any acceptance, because there was no need to explain at all...

"Huh? Huh? Huh?"

The next moment, Franky had already taken off on the spot. The huge body of the Cyborg rose vertically into the air. In an instant, his figure had turned into a small dot. Then he burst the bubble outside the Forest of the Sea and was thrown directly into the sea water. He only had time to stay where he was. Leave a series of modal particles.

"Franky?!"

Not only Franky felt a little confused, but the other members of the Straw Hats also felt confused. To be fair, Franky can't be defeated, but he shouldn't be thrown into the sea directly, right?

"Hey, Marine, what did you do?"

Sanji, who was just watching the show, was about to rush over immediately, but Jinbe stretched out his hand to stop him. This exceptionally powerful enemy stopped the impulsive pirate, and then stepped forward himself.

"Princess Bai Xing, who is this person?"

Jinbe asked when he saw that Shirahoshi was just staying by Mo Fei's side, not like he was being kidnapped but rather familiar with him.

"Lord Jinbei..."

"The commander-in-chief of the Shampoo Islands Naval Base, Rear Admiral Erindel Morfei... Hello, Kaixia Jinbei."

Mo Fei interrupted Bai Xing and introduced herself while taking a few steps forward and standing directly in front of the fat blue man.

Kaixia Jinbei, this fish-man pirate is different from the other fish-men who are causing trouble in Ryugu City. He is not only a fish-man with strong personal strength, but more importantly, he is a fish-man with brains.
