Although most of the fishmen and mermaid civilians on Fishman Island showed considerable hostility towards the arrival of the Sky Pirates, Ryugu, after receiving the news, immediately sent out a welcome guard of honor to welcome Odo and others with the highest standards. People welcomed into the Dragon Palace Castle - who made Odo the king of the franchise country.
Banquet Hall, this is an extremely spacious and tall luxurious hall, where the royal family of Fish-Man Island entertains guests and holds banquets.
Otto sat on a shell chair wrapped in bubbles, quietly watching the mermaid's performance. Next to him was the contemporary King of Ryugu Kingdom - "The Great Knight of the Sea" Neptune, and Princess Otohime. , as well as the great prince Shark Star, the left and right ministers of the Dragon Palace Kingdom and other officials.
On the azure stage, the beautiful mermaids stretched their bodies, their fish tails swayed gently, and a group of small fish swam around them. This wonderful dance, which is very different from human dancers, really has a special kind of dance. Beauty.
The leaders of the Sky Pirates were sitting in several large bubbles, talking in low voices.
Gal Dino murmured to himself: "Such a rare beauty in the world No wonder the price of female mermaid slaves is the highest."
Senor chuckled and said, "Are we going to welcome a mermaid partner?"
"Perhaps." Lafayette pressed the brim of his hat and whispered, "But according to custom, someone should stand up and express strong opposition."
Senior followed Lafayette's gaze and saw Fufu pouting, unconsciously tugging on her sleeves, looking at the mermaid and then at Odo, the sadness in her heart was almost written on her face.
Bista covered her mouth and suppressed a laugh: "Really? It's obvious, right? That guy has been like this since he was a child."
After the dance, the mermaids walked to the front stage and bowed. Then the curtain closed and the next program was about to take the stage.
"Your Majesty Odo has never seen the mermaid dance, right? What do you think?"
Neptune has been paying attention to Odo's expression, and found that the other party seemed to have no reaction, and felt a little uneasy.
Otto turned his head slightly, glanced at Neptune, and commented reservedly: "It's pretty good."
marvelous!
Neptune is a coelacanth mermaid with a very large body, more than 12 meters tall including the tail. His body is full of muscles and even looks fat. He has a thick and fluffy beard, his arms have flame-like tattoos, and his body hair is thick. He looks like a tough guy, but in fact, compared to the real masters in the sea, his strength is just that.
¡°It may be a bit exaggerated to say that Otto can defeat him with one finger, maybe with one hand. If he can stand up after a slap, he will be considered strong.
This is a king with a generous personality, but sometimes a bit childish. Although he has the title of "Great Knight of the Sea", he does not rule the roost by force. He is kind and brave, full of responsibility, deeply loved by the people, and has a good relationship with Whitebeard. The two have been old friends for many years.
At this time, the spotlight turned on and hit the stage. In the beam, a middle-aged fish-human woman with unusually wide lips appeared on the stage. Her lower body was not a fish tail, but human legs.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? When women of the fish-men race reach the age of thirty, their fish tails will separate into legs. Most female merfolk will travel to land to find male humans for intermarriage.
It is a pity that the two races that could have lived in harmony have ended up in this situation because of human discrimination against the fishmen and mermaids.
What man doesn¡¯t like mermaids?
A pleasant accompaniment sounded, and then the mermaid singer began to sing.
"Oh~oh~"
The song opens with a soprano voice, which is long and loud, very beautiful and melodious.
"oh?"
Otto sat up straight and raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile.
Although the other party¡¯s appearance is completely inconsistent with human aesthetics, I have to say that her singing voice is indeed very beautiful, which is the only one Otto has seen in his life.
Neptune introduced him in a timely manner: "This is our number one singer on Fish-Man Island, Maria Ibrain."
Otto smiled and said: "What a great voice."
Neptune laughed and said: "Maria's family has been the gold medal singer on Fish-Man Island for generations. Her daughter Maria Napoleon has also inherited her mother's talent and will definitely become a top singer in the future."
"Yeah"
Otto looked back at Tezzolo. If he remembered correctly, Tezzolo in the original book was also a world-class singer. Of course, he did not rule out the possibility of using money to make himself a big star.
??There are wonderful programs one after another, and the actors are mainly mermaids.This kind of behavior silently expresses resistance to human beings, but it also means that they have given up their right to participate in government decision-making.
Otto suddenly asked: "When was the last time your Dragon Palace Kingdom participated in the World Conference?"
Neptune hesitated and said: "It was probably more than 80 years ago, right? My father, the king of the previous generation, seems to have been there once."
Otto immediately understood, and he knew without even guessing that the previous King of Dragon Palace must have been treated unkindly by other kings, and maybe even called a "disgusting fish" to his face, which broke his heart.
Thinking of this, Odo said: "The speaker of the World Conference is held by the kings of the major participating countries in turn. If you attend the World Conference on time, after so many years, it will be your turn long ago."
Neptune sighed: "Even if you become the Speaker, you can't change anything"
Odo was silent for a few seconds and said: "I can help you. I am going to run for speaker in the next term, or the next term. When the time comes, you can also send people to participate and vote for me. If I am elected, , maybe we can reform some policies that are beneficial to you."
Otohime said happily: "Really? Thank you so much!"
Neptune was a little surprised and uncertain. There must be a price to pay for showing kindness for no reason.
"So what do you want from us?"
Otto said calmly: "Didn't I tell you before? I want to recruit a group of fish-men crew members, don't think too complicated Neptune."
There are many good players in the fishmen clan, such as the future Shichibukai, "Seaman" Jinbe, who is currently serving as the captain of the Ryugu soldiers, and other cadres in the Sun Pirates, all of whom have very good combat capabilities.
The most important thing is that with the participation of fishmen, the safety of the crew members after falling into the water can be ensured. After all, the Sky Pirates have more and more ability users.
Neptune calmed down his thoughts for the time being and said: "Well, let's settle down on Fish-Man Island first, and the Dragon Palace will announce to all the residents the news of the Sky Pirates recruiting crew members"
Suddenly, there were screams in the field.
"I object!"
When everyone heard the sound and looked over, they saw Fufu crossing her arms to form a big "x" and repeating: "I object! Firmly oppose it!" (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com
