Pirate Catcher in the Rye

Mermaid Bay,

Behind the huge coral reef.

"Haha, so many mermaids."

"By the way, since the Tianlong people want mermaid slaves, aren't there a lot of them here!"

Yongji curled his lips in disdain and found that the Celestial Dragons didn't seem to be that good, even though the Fishman Island and the Shampoo Islands were so close.

At the same time, his eyes were rolling, looking at the mermaid beauties playing in the water with intoxication!

"Cough cough~"

"Yongji, your voice is too loud, someone will find out." Iji glared at Yongji dissatisfied.

It took a lot of effort to reach Fish-Man Island, and there were no outsiders. If they were discovered, the cold image they had created before would be completely ruined.

In order not to be looked down upon by others, God knows how many beauties they have rejected.

My heart is bleeding! ! !

"Don't talk, don't disturb me."

"The scene of so many mermaids playing together is so dreamy, it's like heaven!"

Niji murmured to himself, but never turned his head, looking at the mermaid below without blinking.

Suddenly, saliva flowed down the corner of his mouth.

"Suck it~"

As if he realized something, Niji swallowed his saliva again.

"More beautiful than the dealer girl in the casino, so beautiful."

"Yes, that gorgeous tail is a creation that should not exist in the human world."

"Tsk tsk, your figure is also great!"

The three of them spoke with fascination.

When they were in Beihai, they often visited major casinos.

Part of the reason is because it feels good to win and they like that feeling, but the main reason is actually because of those graceful dealer girls.

This is the secret that the three brothers have always kept deep in their hearts!

……

Marlin Shopping Center,

"Buy! Buy! Buy!"

"This, this, and that, I want them all."

Tanya waved her hand proudly, signaling one of her centurions to pay.

"Gollum!"

The centurion leader swallowed his saliva. Today he finally saw what it means to spend money like water.

Tanya and Elise haven’t stopped since just now!

More than [-] million beli have been spent on various styles of clothes and decorations, different types of musical instruments, and all kinds of food, use, and playthings.

It’s almost time to catch up with his bounty!

The Hawkins Pirates are renowned for their strength. Except for Bettina's special identity, the centurions are all held by felons on the fifth floor of Impel Down who have bounties of over [-] million.

"Baird, what are you waiting for, get the money quickly!" Tanya glared at the centurion unhappily.

Where are you, a country bumpkin who has never seen the world?

"The captain gave each centurion 1000 million beli."

Elise blinked and was a little curious: "Why are you keeping Bailey? If you don't spend it, it's just a pile of waste paper. You might be killed anytime!"

From now on, she and Tanya were the ones doing the shopping, and everything was handed over to Baird's men.

The strange thing is that Baird didn't buy anything. At least he can be regarded as the middle management of the Hawkins Pirates!

"I…"

Baird opened his mouth. Didn't Elise curse herself to die early?

Even if you have money, you have to be careful in your life and spend it where it should be used. This way of spending money is obviously a bottomless pit.

"I want to save some money. When I get to the new world, if I'm lucky, I might be able to come across a Devil Fruit for sale."

"At least [-] million beli!"

"Those good abilities are all sold for more than [-] million beli!"

Speaking of this, Baird felt his heart aching. Tanya and the others could buy a good devil fruit with their tricks like this.

……

at the same time,

Many of the Hawkins Pirates went to other parts of Fish-Man Island, and even if they were separated, they would still encounter a few from time to time.

After wandering around for a long time, Hawkins returned to the ship out of boredom!

He was seen leaning on a reclining chair, looking brightly at the top of his head, as if there was something attracting him above.

"Ok?"

Bettina was slightly confused and asked: "Hawkins, you have been looking at the top of your head since the beginning. What are you looking at?"

Apart from the huge bubbles, nothing could be seen except some swimming fish and the blue water.

"Do you still remember the earthquake on Fish-Man Island just now?"

"Of course I remember. I heard that it was an undersea volcano erupting. Didn't the residents of Fish-Man Island say that this is a common thing?"

"Oh, that's not a volcanic eruption!"

Gollum!

Hawkins picked up the drink next to him and took a sip, then started thinking.

paused,

Hawkins explained: "Those were some very ancient Neptune species. Because they were so close, it was inevitable that they would bump into each other."

"After all, their king is here. He must be on standby at any time to prevent accidents from happening!"

but…

Just now, Hawkins keenly felt the huge hostility.

At that time, he was planning to go to the Dragon Palace with Bettina, but as soon as they got close, the Fish-Man Island began to shake.

And when he changed direction, the vibration subsided again. He tried this several times!

Obviously, those ancient 'guards' were eyeing him.

Do not,

Anyone who might be a real threat to White Star should be targeted by them!

They have been wandering quietly outside the Fish-Man Island, waiting for White Star's call at any time, and they have never been far away.

"Ancient...Neptune type?"

Hearing what Hawkins said, Bettina was a little confused. No matter how ancient they were, they were just Neptunes. There was no way they could beat them!

When they were in the North Sea, the Hawkins Pirates killed countless Sea Kings.

"I just accepted a favor from Mrs. Charlie. Since I promised not to cause trouble, I naturally have to keep my word."

"Moreover, our people have been scattered. If there is a conflict, the bubble will be broken by those terrifying sea kings..."

Taking a deep breath, Hawkins did not continue.

That outcome would be fine for the mermaids and fishmen, but the place to live would be gone, and the Hawkins Pirates would suffer heavy losses.

It would be great if you can survive even [-]%!

On the bottom of the sea, it is the most foolish thing to hastily conflict with the intelligent Neptune humans.

Not to mention how powerful the oldest Neptune species are, there are even more ordinary Neptune species than humans!

"Poseidon!"

Hawkins breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "Unfortunately, it's too early now!"

There are at least two more years before the turmoil that affects the entire world. Taking away Bai Xing now will not only bring no benefits, but will also attract the attention of a pack of wolves.

Whether it is pirates, the World Government, or the Revolutionary Army, all major forces will be targeting the Hawkins Pirates.

Other forces may not be sure, but the World Government must know the origins of the three ancient weapons!

I am afraid,

Every generation of mermaid princesses must be under their surveillance.

blu blu!

blu blu!

At this moment, the phone bug in Hawkins' arms rang.

"Hey, it's..."

"Captain, something bad has happened. I saw Bartholomew and Pizarro. They were fighting with the New Fishman Pirates in Fishman Street."

"Who's winning?"

"Uh... Pizarro and the others have the upper hand for the time being, but the people of the New Fish-Man Pirates are already gathering their cadres and partners. Are we..."

The tone on the other end of the phone was a little panicked and a little weird at the same time.

after all,

The New Fishman Pirates are the strongest pirate group on Fishman Island, second only to King Neptune's army. The captain is really concerned about who wins.

Just outrageous!

Although Fishman Street is a lawless place on Fishman Island, where countless thugs gather, they are local residents after all, and they are of a different race.

Once the conflict expands, it is likely to evolve into a war affecting the entire Fish-Man Island!

"You mean, strike first to gain advantage and strike later to suffer disaster?"

"that…"

"Tell the others to stay calm and keep the conflict within the confines of Fishman Street!"

Boom!

Hawkins hung up on the bug without hesitation.

Regarding the reports of his subordinates, Hawkins believed that it was true, but it was far less serious than what they said.

I'm afraid they just wanted to take advantage of the situation and take the opportunity to capture some mermaids and fishmen.

Each one looks exactly like a walking Pele, and few people are not moved!
