Pirates: Starting from the Demon King of Uta - #242 - Chapter 242 Dusty rubbings
“Neptune, that’s it. It would be too embarrassing to say any more.”
After finishing the second cigar, Crocodile reached into his chest pocket, took out another cigar, and lit it again.
“I hate being deceived, but don’t worry, I won’t anger Fish-Man Island because of this, and you won’t even die, even though it’s now more than half a month as promised.”
Crocodile said calmly, Neptune wanted to continue explaining, but was stopped by Crocodile again.
“I understand your love for your daughter, but you lied to me after all, so I thought about it and took my daughter away from you as your punishment.”
Crocodile chuckled. Looking back now, Crocodile naturally knows how hard Neptune put in for Bai Xing, so let this father who loves his daughter deeply experience the pain of losing his daughter.
“The White Star cannot be left to you, absolutely not.”
After a period of mental activity, Neptune’s expression gradually became firm. This was the first time Crocodile had seen him look so tough since arriving on Fish-Man Island.
Crocodile smiled disdainfully, his voice full of sarcasm, and said to Neptune: “Then what are you using to stop us? The entire Fish-Man Island? Or the Whitebeard Pirates?”
“No, I just know that I can’t stop you with force.”
Shaking his head, Nipton knew this very well. Even if Jinbei and Thatch were there, even if they could defeat Crocodile, they would never be Link’s opponent, so Nipton had no intention of using force. defense.
Reaching to the top of his head, Neptune took off his crown, a trace of nostalgia and relief flashed across his face, and said: “I can exchange it for something. For pirates, this thing is more useful than Poseidon, the King of the Sea.” .”
There is a piece of paper hidden inside. The content on it was secretly rubbed by Minister Zuo many years ago. Neptune also punished Minister Zuo at that time. Unexpectedly, it would come in handy today, decades later.
“I’m not interested in your crown.”
Crocodile sneered, and before Neptune could explain, he heard loud noises coming from outside.
“Ahem, I am Vanderdeken IX, Hody Jones’ most loyal ally!”
Van der Deken’s voice came from the outside world. Crocodile walked to the window and looked down. He could see that dense murlocs had surrounded Dragon Palace City. There were tens of thousands of them.
This should be the general attack of murlocs that Enel just mentioned, but Crocodile did not expect that so many murlocs would come.
Neptune also put on his crown again and stood by the window, watching silently.
Vanderdyken himself was not here. His voice came through the telephone bug and was amplified through a loudspeaker so that everyone here could hear it.
“Just last night, my loyal ally Hody Jones died unfortunately in a sneak attack by the Star Pirates.”
Vanderdaken’s voice suddenly became sad, and hearing about Hody Jones’s death also caused the fishman army to panic.
This is because Enel Road was cleaned up relatively clean yesterday, so the news did not spread.
Before the fish-men army was completely in chaos, Vander Deken said passionately and impassionedly: “As his ally, I naturally will not sit idly by and do nothing. I don’t need to avenge Hody Jones, so I invite his loyal subordinates, that is, You help me stop them.
I will make Neptune pay the price for compromising with humanity! Let the Star Pirates pay the price for killing Hody Jones! ! Let Fishman Island return to its former glory! ! ! “
Vander Deken’s words successfully aroused the emotions of these fishmen. After being stunned, they all let out deafening shouts, holding weapons, and rushed towards Dragon Palace City with excitement.
Just like Vanderdeken said, they plan to avenge Brother Hody Jones and turn Fish-Man Island into a world of fish-men!
“When I finish them off, it will be your turn.”
Crocodile said calmly to Neptune, his body turned into yellow sand little by little and disappeared.
Neptune sighed, took off the crown again, and took out a folded piece of paper from the middle. The paper was yellow and looked old.
Neptune, who has not opened it and has kept it for many years, knows very well what is written in it. Now he only hopes to use this thing to exchange the white star back.
…
Umi no Mori, in front of the tomb of Princess Otohime.
Link’s nose moved slightly and he slowly woke up from his deep sleep.
What caught the eye was Uta’s pretty and smiling face. Just now she was playing with Link’s nose with her long white hair, which was also the culprit that made him wake up.
“Let’s sleep a little longer~”
Link buried his head in Uta’s neck, and began the tug and pull that he and Uta had to do before getting up every day. No matter what time he woke up, Link would always say that he wanted to sleep for a while.
“Why are you sleeping? It’s not comfortable to sleep here.”
Uta looked at Link dumbfounded and sat up.
The two of them were lying on the ground, but in order to prevent Uta from lying on the ground, Link put her directly on top of him, and then he lay on the ground. Uta sat up, and his long hair fell directly on Link’s body. Chest.
The sun shone on his eyelids, and Link stretched out his hand, wanting to continue using the Uta to block the light for him, but the Uta stepped back, leaving Link in vain.
“Stop sleeping, it’s time to eat.”
Uta said helplessly, and Olvia and Robin, who had been there for a while, also laughed and said nothing.
Even Bai Xing had woken up and was covering his eyes with both hands, looking towards Link and Uta with a shy expression.
The gap between her fingertips was huge and not covered at all, allowing everything to be seen.
Although he was a little shy, Shirahoshi couldn’t help but want to watch.
At this time, Uta also got up from Link’s body, adjusted her clothes a little, then walked towards Olvia, and helped open the lunch boxes one by one and put them away.
Link then rubbed his eyes and looked around. When he saw Uta, he walked directly towards her.
“Olvia, Robin, crybaby, morning~”
Yawning, Link stuck to Uta’s side again. Watching her movements, he also wanted to help, but Uta shook his head to stop her.
“You can just eat it later.”
Pulling Link to the side, Uta began to pat his back gently to shake off the dirt. It was some distance away from the lunch box, so there was no need to worry about dust falling into it.
Fortunately, there wasn’t much dust on Link’s back, and it was quickly cleaned up. Uta took Link back and started eating the breakfast brought by Olvia.
Bai Xing was more reserved. She was not familiar with Olvia and Robin, so she was relieved to see Link and Uta back, and she couldn’t help but lean towards them.
Because they didn’t know about Bai Xing’s existence, the food they brought might not be enough. Although the three of them couldn’t be full, they wouldn’t feel hungry anymore.
I took a look at the comment section after a long time (I am easily affected by comments, so I rarely read it recently) and wanted to say a few words.
Why are you looking for Neptune? The reason is that I saw news about Neptune on Sky Island. With Crocodile’s character, he must be looking for it.
Neptune is not important, I said in the Sky Island chapter that Enel is the last one.
And you should be able to tell that only Enel and Crocodile are interested in Neptune. The others have an indifferent attitude and have not participated in the search.
Those who drink drink, those who make cakes make cakes, those who go shopping go shopping, and those who practice practice.
There are only two important things on Fish-Man Island, one is Neptune, and the other is the text of the red road sign that Roger saw back then.
However, the text of the road sign on Fishman Island has long since disappeared, and it should be in the hands of the burned man now, but the identity of the burned man is unknown, which is very troublesome.
So I don’t wait any longer. Who does he love? With this rubbing, everything will be easy to tell.
There is also the issue of Link. His character design is like this: he is stupid when he is alive and returns to normal when he dies.
This setting will basically not change, it is related to the ending.
Maybe when you see the end, you will say this when you see the ending? But that’s the ending I had in mind.
Regarding this, I have written about 500,000 words so far. I have written three places in total (if I remember correctly), and there is only one most obvious reminder. I didn’t read the comments very much, and I don’t know if anyone has noticed it.
The number of words the writer has to say is limited, so I won’t say more, so let’s leave it at that.
