The sudden scene stunned everyone in the hall, and finally it was Xia Li's painful groan that woke them up.

Otohime hurried forward to help Xia Li up. After a while, Xia Li's breathing gradually stabilized and her face regained some color, but she still looked very pale and haggard.

She murmured,

"What's the admiral's name?"

Otohime responded subconsciously.

"Dark.....No, his name is Zig, Darkseid Zig!"

Xia Li shook her head slowly and said,

"No, his last name is not Darkseid."

Otohime frowned and wanted to ask more questions, but Xia Li continued,

"It seems like he shouldn't exist in the present, let alone in the future. Everything about him is so vague..."

"So what will happen to Fishman Island next?"

"I can't see it. I only see endless darkness. Darkness means the unknown. The future is unpredictable!"

Otohime and the others were confused by Shirley's words, and they felt heavier in their hearts, because Shirley's divination ability was known to everyone on Fishman Island, and she could even predict what was likely to happen decades later.

According to common sense, predicting the near future should be a very simple thing for Xia Li, but the final result is like this.

Everyone was anxious, and for a moment no one cared about the pale little Xia Li.

Xia Li lowered her head and twisted her blue fish tail nervously. Suddenly, a big hand pressed on her little head.

She blinked her eyes, raised her head slightly, and her vision gradually became clear. What came into her sight was a face with clear contours and a warm aura.

What attracted her most was the right pupil that shone like gold, giving people a sense of nobility and mystery.

Jiger bent down, picked up Charlie and gently placed her on his shoulders.

Being hugged by such a strange human being, Xia Li did not feel the slightest resistance in her heart. She grasped the clothes on Jiger's shoulders with her little hands in a somewhat restrained manner.

Then, Jiger turned his gaze to Otohime and the others who looked dazed, and said with a smile,

"Everyone seemed to be talking about me just now, right?"

Jige's arrival was silent. Yiji didn't know when Jige came back or how much he heard, so she could only smile awkwardly.

Jiger was wearing a black silk robe inlaid with gold patterns. With his golden right pupil, he exuded an incomparable noble temperament. This nobility did not come from the decoration of clothes alone, but from the majesty and confidence that radiated from the inside out.

The so-called princes and nobles were no different from commoners in his eyes.

Jiger was much taller than Otohime. He looked down at her with a smile and said softly,

"It's okay to talk about it, but I heard that His Majesty Neptune has a good relationship with a man named Roger. Is this Roger... the pirate?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying pressure erupted from Jiger, and Neptune and a group of ministers and soldiers were forced to prostrate themselves in front of Jiger.

Jige's hearing was extraordinary. Just now when he was changing clothes in other rooms, he clearly heard the conversation between Yiji and others in the hall.

Now, Zig's control over the Conqueror's Haki has reached a level of perfection. Xia Li and Tiger, who are closest to him, do not feel any discomfort except that they think Zig looks more majestic.

However, Jinbei among the soldiers did not enjoy such treatment. He lay on the ground with a look of horror on his face.

As a female mermaid with a weaker body, Otohime's performance was the worst. She crawled on the ground with trembling body and was about to faint.

Seeing this, Jiger reduced the intensity of Otohime's domineering color. After all, it would be bad if Otohime's body was hurt and she became infertile.

Neptune crawled on the ground, raised his head with difficulty, and said,

"General Black Dragon, if you want to punish someone, please punish me alone. Please don't vent your anger on Fishman Island..."

Jig leaned forward slightly, and Xia Li almost fell down. She subconsciously hugged Jig's neck with her little hands.

"Neptune, do you think the World Government isn't doing enough to protect Fishman Island?"

Neptune did think so, but he dared not admit it at this time, so he could only shake his head against his will.

Jiger squatted down, looked Neptune in the eyes, and whispered,

"Don't be afraid. This is a well-known fact. I also think so."

Neptune and the others were sweating profusely after hearing this, fearing that Zigg was setting up a trap for them, so no one dared to speak.

Giger continued,

"Actually, I came here this time to ease the relationship between fishmen and humans. I also considered mobilizing some soldiers from our headquarters to strengthen the defense of Fishman Island. But I just heard about what happened between you and Roger... This makes it a bit difficult for me."

Hearing this, before Neptune could respond, Otohime beside him suddenly said excitedly,

"General Black Dragon, is what you just said true?!"

"Do I need to lie to you?"

Otohime struggled to stand up, but even Jiger's reduced domineering color was not something she could resist with her willpower.

Finally, she could only lie on the ground and say,

"General Black Dragon, there is no substantive relationship between Fishman Island and Roger, and there won't be any in the future!"

Jiger smiled and said,

"Maybe. What I just said can still be discussed. Princess Otohime, you should also know that the World Government will not change its attitude towards Fishman Island for no reason. Moreover, the military strength of the headquarters is so tight now. It is not an easy task to mobilize more troops to garrison Fishman Island."

"What does General Black Dragon mean?"

"It's simple. I need to see your sincerity."

This time, without waiting for Otohime to speak, Neptune finally showed his courage as a king and said,

"General Black Dragon, I am willing to bear all military expenses of the navy stationed on Fishman Island, and there will be additional subsidies!"

Jiger shook his head and said,

"This is not about money. I said, what I want to see is your sincerity, that is, your attitude."

Otohime and Neptune looked at each other. Neither of them understood what Jiger meant. Otohime frowned and thought for a long time, then asked tentatively,

"General Black Dragon, what do you need us to do?"

Jiger's lips curled up into an evil smile, and his words made the Neptune couple's pupils shrink.

"I heard that you will have a daughter in a few years. Why don't you send your daughter to Marijoa when she is six years old? Don't worry, I will personally send her back when she comes of age. What do you think?"
