Is that him princess ? .
Yes Ryuu sama this is Vander decken sama .
Didn't you say that you don't like him why are using honorific with his name .
My late mother ~sob~ ~sob~ always told me and my brothers to always be polite and respectful when dealing with other people even if we didn't like them .
I'm really curious about that mother of yours after we done here could you tell me more about her and in return i will tell you of everything i saw at the surface deal ? .
Deal , Ryuu sama .
And drop the honorifics with me i already think of you as a friend .
I'm friends with Ryuu sama , isn't that great Megalo . The shark was nodding and kept circling around me as if wanted something ohh i get it now .
And you are my friend too Megalo .
And the shark beemed with happiness at my words he is really a straightforward guy .
I believe i'm getting ignored , i think , said the tall individual with beige-colored skin, he had a slim build, and lanky limbs, the most distinguishing feature was his four legs , his hair was shorter and was straight and rounded like dreadlocks , he also had sharp teeth, with bigger webs between his fingers than most of the fish-men i saw , a very thin, pointy nose and a prominent hunch that puts his head on equal level with his shoulders , he wore a broadly horizontal-striped shirt under light overalls with a gun strapped to his hip , he also had whiskers .
Shirahoshi did you finally come to express your acceptance of my love , you even brought me a human as a gift you are really considerate , i think .
Ryuu sama is my friend and sorry i can't accept your affection since i'm too young and you really are not my type .
Hahahaha the scene that was happening in front of me was really hilarious an ugly middle aged Fishman asking for the hands of the number one beauty of the Ryugu kingdom in marriage and he was being rejected just because he wasn't her type and what is that about arriving her to declare her love i'm pretty sure we were here first and he was the one who came crashing forcefully into the bubble was he that narcissistic or was something loose in his head i invulnerability laughed so hard that i had tears in my eyes and both parties was looking at me confusingly .
What do you mean you are too young you are on a passable age for marring ? .
Sorry for interrupting but you intentionally or unintentionally forget the other reason about you not being her type just wanted to clarify things for you since you look like you have a memory of a fish .
You really think that i have such a strong memory like that of a fish , thank you for your help kind words i might even decide to spare your puny life .
I remembered now that he's partly a fish look like my insult got actually converted into a compliment unknowingly what a weird situation that is .
How did you get here by yourself did father in-law or my brothers in law come to give me their blessings .
Pffff is this guy brain damaged or something .
Hey princess are you ready to leave ? .
Ryuu sama can't we stay a little longer ? .
Sure i was just asking if you were bothered by those guys arrival we still have time left .
I really don't like to be ignored like this , i think .
Then an axe flew towards me i can tell that it was thrown without the use of a devil fruit ability why is that but the end was still the same a one punch shattered it to pieces .
What is your deal fish brain ? .
Your nice words won't save you anymore , die .
He began to engage in close combat with me still trying to slash at me with his big axe but the results was still me evading all his attacks effortlessly i have a big showdown after this little adventure of mine after all .
Be aware Ryuu sama he is able to use his curse .
Shirahoshi don't go around spreading your will be soon husband sama secrets .
I used Soru and appeared directly and told him before i sent him flying through the bubble and into the sea : and i told you before that she said you aren't her type .
and bam he was sent flying and the huge acquaintances of his dashed after him as he fell into the sea water and was now floating there like a board unable to move .
A few minutes later they were in their coated ghost ship when Vander Decken began to throw everything he had towards Shirahoshi cursing and yelling : i thought you have come to confess your love to me but you came to boast to me about your lover , i will bury him with you here .
Ryuu sama what is lover ? .
I don't know from what he is saying i guess it's something related to love someone other than yourself or something like that .
I told you i don't like to be ignored like this , iiiii thhhhinkkk take that .
Whaaaat he is targeting us with the huge ghost ship of his it will destroy the graves of the royal family completely i guess he really brought this on himself i caught a spear that was still intact and increased my size to 10 and the spear size and speed by 20 and i was now a bit taller than Shirahoshi holding a spear that spoke doom on whoever or whatever it hits with merely its size i steadied myself and took aim i wanted to destroy the ship to stop Vander Decken from using his fruit ability i found which place i wanted to target and throw the spear effortlessly it was actually light for its size or maybe it's the work of my fruit ability anyway the impact of the spear hitting its target was the bubble around the ship bursted and from blue deck and upward the spear with its increased size made a hole so big that i can dock the Piece Of Spadille in it .
And the spear continued its way and was about to pierce the whole Fish-man Island but luckily my power began to fade from it as the spear shrunk back to its normal size Vander Decken was so shocked that he forgot to give orders to his crew the least person shocked was actually Shirahoshi .
I reverted back to normal and increased my healing by 60 as i felt the insides of my body suffering from the excessive action i just took i will think about what it was later it's healed in instant anyway .
Say...Ryuu sama if i love someone does that mean he is my lover ? .
What brought this all of a sudden ? .
Answer me please ? .
Like i told you before i don't know i'm just guessing that the answer to your question is yes probably .
So are you my lover Ryuu sama ? .
Whaat how did you reach to this conclusion ? .
~Sob~ Don't yell at me doesn't love mean to like someone and you said you liked me before .
True but argghh i don't know it doesn't work like that and it isn't the same .
I understood now .
Finally coming to your senses mind sharing what you understood with me .
You are not my lover Ryuu sama i sighed in relief at her words but she then continued to say I'm your lover Ryuu sama .
I crashed to the ground from pure shock what is that even mean she was even smiling there smugly not even aware that Decken ship was now falling on our heads .
The ship stooped as i was now in my giant form with increased strength and in my hybrid form and i throw the ship back to sea a few members fell from the ships and some weren't on it in the first place those were Wadatsumi and Vander Decken and the huge fish of their but i have to say the bubble around Fish-man Island is really sturdy .
Wadatsumi kill that giant man Ankoro get that shark i will catch Shirahoshi .
Ayy capttain since you damaged our ship i will destroy you Mega Nyudo the Fishman began to increase its size as it almost reach my size of 36 meters and came crashing like literally crashing towards me yet all for nothing as a punch was all it took to send it back flying to the sea as my shockwave bubble was the thing responsible for it flying that much away .
i then looked at the deep sea king which they called Ankoro who was trying to eat Megalo and unleashed my Conqueror's Haki telling it to leave and it ran away trying to reach the still flying Wadatsumi .
all this happened in seconds i then looked at the exited Vander Decken who was approaching Shirahoshi with a wicked smile and got back to my normal size and got a sword and appeared in front of him and got ready to try a move i was only able to stimulate inside my mind without any ability to use my appearance caught the crossing hand pirate by surprise but he wasn't aware that the surprises had only began i fixed my stance and gaind momentum and used the first and the only move in my sword style for now .
One Sword Style : (Doragon Reiji Burittsu Surasshu)
Dragon Rage Blitz Slash a sharp green energy slash appeared with a shadow of an enraged green dragon with red eyes slashing with its claws in and the slash went towards Vander Decken who was looking at the scene in front of him with terror as the slash made contact with his body he was bomberd away by it in one direction back to the sea direction as he followed the steps of his friends more swiftly and even with clairvoyance i wasn't able to tell when or where the energy slash stopped , sadly the fate for the sword that i used this move with was to get its blade to shatter i don't know why but i felt saddened at that happening .
Farewell sword you did you job splendidly .
With that you will rest from him bothering you for sometime .
~Sob~sob~ I'm grateful for Ryuu sama help .
I told you no need to be we are friends aren't we .
No , i'm Ryuu's sama lover .
Stop saying that already you will create unnecessary misunderstanding , even Megalo is thinking that something is wrong do you have any other place you want to go to discreetly as possible ofcourse .
The was blushing and shocking his head while circling around her face as if he know something we don't .
There are plenty of places that i wanted to visit but i can't because i don't want to burden Ryuu sama but Do you mind if we stayed here a bit longer , Ryuu sama ? .
I told you before you can stay here for how long you want i will be strolling around call me if you need me .
She nodded and i left the tomb and went strolling around until i found something interesting or at least i thought saw as for the first time my clairvoyance wasn't able to see through something , the something was a big blue cube of stone but what kind of stone i don't know with weird inscriptions all over this look like a task for the Thinker i cleared my thoughts and opened my 15 times increased brain activity .
I was able to understand a few things but not one words out of the engravings i understand that it's something very ancient something related to a history very back in time and this blue cube was acting as a log or a memo it seems my guesses are somehow close to the truth as i'm just analysing the state that thing is in and the unknown Ancient language of the engravings they are written in a way that anyone clueless about it will think that those engravings are some scribbles which have no meaning but if someone analyzed it more throughly he would find those engravings are actually words engraved on the stone cube to tell about something to those and only those who are will endued with a good understanding to that Ancient Language .
I closed my Thinker Mode as it was just a waste of time to keep looking at the cube for answers without having any clue about how to decipher an entire ancient language with any basic information about it i would only be moving in the dark here , i looked to the right of that cube and saw the markings of another cube that must at one point of time had been next to the blue cube .
Or maybe it was the place where the blue cube was in the first place but someone came and moved it to the side but who would do that and why , i now feel why the late pirate king liked to adventure around searching for mysteries i'm quite intrigued to find what that blue cube is about .
I was sitting there leaning on the poneglyph closing my eyes and remembering that thrilling feeling i had when i launched my first one sword style attack and it was only like that with my strength increased by 30 times what if i had increased it more would he have been dissected on the spot but is he even still alive , i can tell that if a word spread about a human killing a Fishman here on the island the already tensed relation between humans and Fishmen will completely collapse and without even the need for explanations both parties have some truth at believing the other want to harm them i hope he didn't die to not be the cause to rekindle the enmity between the two parties.
Ryuu sama can tell me more about the surface now , right ? .
Yes but don't raise your expectations i only have been to one place in my life it is Sabondy Archipelago , i then began to tell here all about the good things in there like the Sabondy Park and the bubbles that on top of the mangrove trees the different groves and how was they made to help the tourists navigate more comfortably and not to go near the lawless zone as to not get hurt and her eyes were all sparkling and kept on saying that she wanted to see those trees and even wanted a ride on the Ferris Wheel .
After telling her about most of my experience on the surface she stood by her end of the deal with so much hesitation and to my surprise began to tell me how kind and thoughtful her mother was and how she always taught her children to be approachable and well mannered and my shock began when i heard that her mother even went to surface with a celestial dragon to prove her dream of both humans and Fishmen and merfolks coexistence she was really courageous she even planned to present a petition of Fish-man Island coexistence and more than tolerant to accept visitors from the surface while also being expected to get the same treatment when they go to the surface but what really irked her was that she found most of both Fishmen and merfolks unsupportive of her ideas and some even began to sway other citizens from signing her petition and what pained her the most was she finding about the discrimination between the two main races inhabiting the kingdom the Fishmen and merfolks and always ordered Kind Neptune to try his best to end it and taught Shirahoshi and her brothers to try their best in aiding their father's with this , reaching this point she then went back to the tomb and began crying with Megalo trying to comfort her with his fins .
I had the feeling that Shirahoshi hiding something from me as when i asked how her late mother died she only said that she was betrayed but didn't say anything more and Wallace told me that a human did it when she was trying to convince people to sign her petition of coexisting and that was one of the important reason for why humans are so hated down here but if she didn't want to share it with me she must have her reasons .
Don't cry Shirahoshi , your mother wouldn't have liked to see you crying your mother was really a great person you need to cherish her last wishes of you and your brothers .
Sob sob Thank you Ryuu sama i will do my best .
Want to head back now .
She nodded recluantly and i can tell that she enjoyed being outside but there is nothing i can do about that and my appointment was Ace was nearing so i really need to go .
As before used the same plan to get us back to her room in the Hard Shell tower and poor guards got sent to sleep again .
Ryuu sama really needs to go ~sob~sob~ i don't want to say goodbye this fast can't you stay for a few more days . And tears began to pour down from her eyes and on her cheeks .
I don't want to say goodbye too but we are only docking here for only a day and we are already at the end of it but don't worry it's not like it will be the last time we see each other i will come to visit you when i have time okey .
Promise ? She said and raised her pinkie towards me as i increased my size and said Promise and hold her pinkie with mine and told her goodbye and Megalo too .
As i was leaving she said Thank you for today Ryuu sama , when you come back i will be a better lover .
I wanted to argue but decided that she will figure it on her own in the end probably, right ? .
I waved at both of them one last time then vanished and a few seconds more i was already on my way to the Fish-man District the place is lawless with conflicts everywhere and unfortunately all those conflicts and their consequences fall on the head of those normal Fishmen families that live there it have quite the resemblance with the Sabondy in that part .
The zone consisted of a massive ark where fish-men lived in and around while behind them was a massive old ship that left my eyes widening unconsciously that ship was really huge .
Ace still didn't arrive but a commotion caught my attention so i went to see what is happening .
(Unknown Pov) :
Hey kid i told you before to not build this human figurine here didn't you even learn anything from what happened to your mother do you really like that human that much won't him to come and abduct you too .
But queen Otohime said not all the humans are responsible for the evil acts that some of them do and i believe her and so did my mother this man helped me and my mother when we went to the surface and he was even kind to give me a gift and say it was from my father why you keep destroy the figurine i made to remember him .
A kind human you really lost your mind and need someone to remind you of how cruel can they be see this this was the what your kind-hearted humans gave me the man pointed at a sun mark on his back and a sever wounds in his abdomen .
The crowd : Zururin have just recently lost his mom because a human yet he still believe humans are kind .
Humans are kind stop joking kid we all know that humans are cruel and twisted bunch that don't want anything other than to enslave us , a second Fishman was saying this now while walking towards the kid named Zururin .
The crowd : former member of the Neptune army Hody Jones someone needs to go help that kid .
Hey , kid Zururin humans are all evil and nothing will change that not even that mud figurine of yours White Haired Demon what are you kidding me or something just his name is already having a demon on it i better not see that mud figurine again or else you will be following your mother same steps after all she was the one to show you how to make those figurines of yours a crazy woman .
Don't badmouth my mother she also said that not all humans are bad and i believe her over you and that man you belittle is a hero to me and see he gave me this without asking for anything back , he lifted the mecha doll to show all the people gathered that humans can also be kind .
Ohh, you dared to talk back give me that , the Fishman extended his hands to pull the doll out of the kid hand and when he tried to fight back he was slapped in the face by Hody and managed to get the doll as the boy began to cry while asking him to return it .
Bohhhhoooo Return it it's mine .
You sold your own people for a doll you really need to be taught a lesson , he was going to strike the kid when a sudden swoosh sound came and the doll returned to the kid hands and Hody was the only thing that was moving right now or should we say flying in his place was a young man with a white hair and a calm smile on his face as he said :
didn't you heard this boy said that i'm his hero you so you won't be laying a finger or a fin on him not today and not ever .
