To the end of the sea [One Piece]

"I only know that Fisher Tiger was a fish-man adventurer who rescued countless slaves and later formed his own Sun Pirates." Ena said.

"The Sun Pirates were actually formed by the gangsters from Fishman Street back then, plus the fishman slaves liberated by Fisher Tiger in Mariejoia." Jinbe said, "I worked hard with Princess Otohime to The concept of calling for peaceful coexistence between people and human beings is completely opposite... Brother Tiger hates human beings very much."

Ena opened her mouth weakly.

"He has seen too many atrocities done to fish-men by humans, and was even branded as a slave. So he said that he can no longer fall in love with humans." Jinbei sighed, "But he is Before she died, she told us that Princess Otohime’s philosophy is the way to coexist with humanity in the long term.”

"I've always wanted to ask about this." Eina clenched her fists and said with some excitement, "What was the cause of Fisher Tiger's death?"

"The outside world says that humans are unwilling to donate blood to him after he dies." Jinbei said in a serious tone, "This is also the origin of the rule on Fishman Island not to donate blood to humans."

Sanji and Chopper looked at each other.

"But the truth is... Brother Tiger refused human blood before he was on the verge of death."

Ena's eyes widened.

"Yes." Jinbei lowered his head, "Brother Tiger couldn't accept human blood, and eventually died of excessive blood loss. But because we think it will damage the reputation of such a legendary man...including the fact that he was once used as a slave by the Celestial Dragons. Things…these are things we don’t want to spread after our eldest brother’s death.”

"So, we changed our statement to the outside world." Jinbei said, "The Sun Pirates were hunted down by the navy after Brother Tiger's death. Many people were tired of this life and wanted to return to their hometowns. But even Such a simple wish is even difficult for fish-men who suffer from discrimination."

"They needed to be protected by the government...and I made a choice."

A look of exhaustion appeared on Jinbei's face: "The original intention of becoming King Shichibukai was to contribute some power to Princess Otohime's wish for peace. At the same time, I also picked up Arlong, who had been arrested at the time, from Impel Down City. "

"But the hatred and anger in Aaron's heart were too extreme. I couldn't convince him, and in the end we had a fight, and he left with Xiaoba and other friends, and later went to Donghai."

"The Sun Pirates have since fallen apart."

"I'm sorry." Jinbei lowered his head deeply, "I didn't stop him and let him go to the East China Sea. However, at that time, we all had too many things we couldn't help ourselves, and the future was unpredictable."

Nami pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Later, Princess Otohime's efforts were not in vain. One year, a Celestial Dragon was exiled to Fishman Island, and Princess Otohime protected his life against all objections. In exchange, she even went to Marijoa alone and passed her own The speech convinced those world nobles and returned to Fish-Man Island with the agreement signed by the Tianlong people."

"For such a weak woman, it's hard for me to imagine how the princess did it." Jimei said with respect, "But she really did it and brought light to Fish-Man Island."

Shirahoshi waved his tail, and Jinbei looked at the princess on the side: "Before Princess Otohime went to land, we actually had a conflict with the Celestial Dragon. The princess, who was still a child, sensed that her mother-in-law was in danger, which inspired her to hide Amazing ability."

What he said next was like a bombshell.

"White Star's cries attracted all the sea kings in the offshore area... Such oppression stabilized the situation, and no one dared to act rashly."

Eina opened her mouth wide and looked at Shirahoshi in disbelief. She suddenly felt that there was something wrong with her idea that this child needed to be protected by herself.

"Are you talking about... Bai Xing is the mermaid princess who only appeared hundreds of years ago and only existed in legend... the inheritance of the same ability???" She covered her mouth, "That is the same as [Pluto] Level of human weapons..."

Jinbei gave her an affirmative look.

There was a storm in everyone's heart.

【Neptune】.

It was only in hundreds of years that a mermaid princess appeared, with the ability to communicate with the minds of Neptunes.

The frail-looking mermaid girl turned out to be the [Sea King] of this era.

She also suddenly understood why Ryugu City was so overprotective and nervous about Shirahoshi. After all, if Bai Xing still had such an identity, her life and death could even affect the direction of the world.

"Because of the princess's heroic feat of disregarding her safety, the people of Fishman Island finally began to be willing to support her signature agreement. Everyone thought that things would go in a good direction." Jinbei said, "But things went counterproductive..."

"That incident happened without warning."

"All the signatures collected by Princess Otohime were destroyed and burned...and she herself was shot to death...in front of everyone."

Tears welled up in Shirahoshi's eyes.

"Hody Jones was a member of the Dragon Palace Guards. He discovered the sniper and killed him on the spot. But the most important question is... that person was a human being."

Jinbei clenched his fists: "Although I wanted to cover it up to prevent the hatred between races from intensifying... But Hody made this fact public, causing the little hope and longing that people had for human beings to be instantly overwhelmed by hatred and anger."

"We have been fighting hard for the peace between races for more than ten years... That is the legacy of Princess Otohime, and it is also the dream of many fish people."

"We... have longed for the human world... and real sunshine since we were young."

He faced Nami, put his hands on the ground, leaned down and lowered his head.

"Aaron is my little brother after all... I thought that if he did something evil, we would subdue him. But he bribed the navy in the East China Sea, so we never received any news." Jinbei said in his tone. With guilt, "I have caused pain and suffering to many of you... I am really, really sorry."

The orange-haired woman grabbed her shoulder, which was already covered with orange tattoos, and didn't speak for a long time.

"Sometimes, suffering and tragedy happen, but there is no way to change it." Ena said in a hoarse voice, "For children who have grown up in such a fate, it is not enough to just apologize that has been delayed for many years. Make up for it.”

"As long as Nami can calm down, she can do anything to me." Jinbei lowered his head and trembled slightly.

"No need." Nami interrupted them who were about to say something else and raised her head.

Ena and Jinbe both raised their heads and looked at her.

"It's good to know that you are not the mastermind behind Aaron's group... As for the rest, it's in the past." Nami hugged her knees and sat down slowly, "I just hate Aaron, and it has nothing to do with you Jinbei."

"Moreover, even if I hated it all, it was in this fate that I met my current companions, and that was how I lived a happy and wonderful life."

The orange-haired woman showed a relieved smile.

"So, I've let it go."

Ena sighed deeply, walked over, knelt down and hugged Nami.

Nami smiled and hugged the girl who buried her face in her shoulder: "I'm fine, Ena."

But she soon discovered something was wrong.

Eina's arms around her waist tightened, and her shoulders shook slightly.

Nami hugged her worriedly: "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Eina said dullly, "I suddenly like Nami so much."

Nami touched her head helplessly: "What are you talking about?"

She let go of her hand and gave her a bright smile: "It's nothing."

Nami smiled back without knowing why.

No one in the Straw Hat Pirates knows Ena's life experience.

Even Sanji only knew the part about her escape. But her truly painful past is unknown to anyone in this world except Capone Becky and Shanks.

So Nami naturally cannot understand Eina's mood swings.

It is precisely because she also understands how difficult it is to reconcile with her past that Ena wants to embrace Nami.

They are both strong and gentle girls.

Jinbei looked at Nami with his mouth wide open. After a moment, the strong-willed fishman suddenly couldn't help but shed tears.

Eina looked at him quietly wiping away tears with soft eyes and sighed.

In fact, Jinbei has always been under a lot of pressure. Every choice he makes is so difficult and has a long way to go.

This is the burden that those who shoulder the responsibility bear. For the sake of the ultimate righteousness, many things must not only be controlled by oneself, but also be misunderstood by millions of people.

If you want to make a change, you can't do it overnight. All great history is rewritten by thousands of generations of great people passing on the fire, and everyone has left their footprints on the pages of history.

They are just a corner in the long history.

"Then it's time to talk about business." Jinbei wiped away his tears and stood up, "We don't know the situation in Ryugu City at all. We can only confirm that your three partners plus Papago, and the kidnapped King Neptune Still in there.”

"If Hody's plan is to be followed, what he wants to do is not just kidnap King Neptune." Xiao Ba raised his body with difficulty, "There is probably a more terrifying event happening on Fish-Man Island..."

"Do you know Hody's plan?!" Jinbe said in surprise.

Just as Xiaoba was about to say something, an image phone bug suddenly moved over and automatically turned on the screen.

All of them looked over, and after receiving the signal, a ferocious face appeared.

"It's Hody Jones." Jinbei said solemnly.

He connected the image line of Fish-Man Island and was delivering his speech to the whole country at this moment.

"The thoughts of Neptune and Otohime are all deceiving you..." the fishman said disdainfully, "and I will take over Ryugu Castle and become the new king... coexisting with humans is a joke!"

Eina squinted at Hody's arrogant speech and saw him turn the camera to the three Zoro people who were captured.

"Ah! Zoro! Usopp! Brooke!" Chopper called out anxiously, "Wow, have they really been caught!"

"If I remember correctly, this year is another year for the World Conference." She stopped looking at Hody's screen and turned to ask Jinbei.

Jinbe nodded: "Yes, King Neptune has collected many people's petition signatures over the years. He originally planned to formally submit the application for fishmen to move to land at this year's meeting."

"It seems that she really knows how to choose the right time." The silver-haired girl raised her eyes and looked at the sky. Hody was provoking the Straw Hats.

"I heard that you have also come to this island... Your companions are in my hands now. If you want to save them, come and fight with me... Straw Hat Boy - Luffy."

"There is really no way." Luffy clenched his fist with a cold expression, "Since they have already issued a letter of challenge to us...and their companions are in their hands, let's go and beat that Hody away."
