Chapter 173: Chapter 172 Shirahoshi Finally Boarded The Ship And Entered The New World!
Looking at the double-edged ax in Luffy's hand, Nami was also very puzzled: "No way!! When we were here just now, I felt that the environment on The fish men island is quite safe.. How did it become unsafe after arriving in Ryugu Palace City?"
"No..., that ax flew from outside The fish men island!"
The great prince Fukuboshi quickly explained.
Then, he recounted how Van der Decken had been throwing weapons and love letters at Shirahoshi for 10 consecutive years.
"10 years?"
The expression on Luffy's face is very shock, he shook his head slightly, "So..., there must be some important secret hidden with Princess Shirahoshi, right?"
Hearing this, Prince Fukuboshi quickly shook his head: "No.....No..."
"You are lying to me..." Luffy smiled lightly, and then analyzed: "10 years..., do you know how much perseverance it takes to do one thing continuously for 10 years? If there are no benefits, how can Van Der Decken persist?"
"Didn't he just say that there are love letters? Could it be that Van der Decken is really in love??" Kiwi asked curiously.
"Hahaha!!" Without Luffy answering, Franky laughed first, "Princess Shirahoshi was only 6 years old 10 years ago..., why is he infatuated with a 6-year-old child? Hahaha, what kind of nonsense is that!!"
"Eh..." Kiwi suddenly realized how ridiculous her words were
At this time, Luffy looked at Fukuboshi, and asked calmly: "My guess is... Princess Shirahoshi is Poseidon, right??"
"ah!" Suddenly hearing this, the big prince Fukuboshi is shock, "No...she's not!"
Luffy has a strange expression: "Hah, I mean look at your expression, it clear to me that you are lying"
"No, I didn't lie !" The prince Fukuboshi hastily retorted.
Mrs. Shyarly at the side touched her forehead lightly, and sighed: "Huh..., Your Highness Fukuboshi, your reaction immediately proves that the straw hat Luffy guessed right."
Realizing that Luffy has identified Shirahoshi's Poseidon identity, Fukuboshi looked at Luffy vigilantly: "Straw hat Luffy, are you also coveting my sister's Poseidon ability just like Van der Daken?"
"Prince Fukuboshi, in fact, you don't need to be so hostile to me!!"
Luffy looked at Fukuboshi calmly, "I am strong, if I want to bring her away from The Fish Men Island, no one on The Fish Men Island can stop me! Of course, I can also clearly say that I came to Ryugu Castle to confirm whether Princess Shirahoshi is Poseidon. But, Let's not talk other things for the time being. Since this Van Der Decken has been harming Princess Shirahoshi for ten years, let me help you solve it!" Luffy said.
After the simple exchange, Fukuboshi's hostility towards Luffy has eased a lot.
Then they came outside the Shell Tower
"Straw hat Luffy, I choose to trust you, I hope you will not let me down my trust in you!! Otherwise, even if I'm weaker then you, I will use my life to protect my sister!!"
Fukuboshi took a serious look at Luffy, then waved to the soldiers guarding the Shell Tower
The soldiers received Fukuboshi's order and immediately opened the shell tower!
Fukuboshi looked at everyone: "My sister is very timid, so don't go in with many people. Luffy, you and I can go in together."
Luffy nodded: "No problem."
Seeing there is people coming to the inside of the Shell Tower, Princess Shirahoshi shrank in the corner in panic
Although everything here is arranged according to the princess's want, but the "cage" is still a "cage", Luffy feels very uncomfortable when he see this
Depression and loneliness are almost overwhelming...!!
Thinking that Princess Shirahoshi had lived here since she was 6 years old, Luffy immediately felt sympathy for this mermaid princess whom she has never met
"Really? Mr. Luffy, can yours really help me escape the curse of Van der Daken forever?"
After listening to Fukuboshi's introduction, little Shirahoshi excitedly picked up Luffy and held him in her hand
"Yes, but Princess Shirahoshi we need your cooperation, because I need to determine the location of Van der Daken."
As Luffy talk, suddenly a spear flew in from outside
"It's bad, a weapon flew in just now!!"
"Princess be careful!!"
The guard outside immediately shouted anxiously.
Luffy reached out and pressed the spear down
He shook the spear in front of Shirahoshi's eyes: "Look, as long as I look back in the direction where the weapon is flying like this, I find out where Van Der Decken hide himself"
Just now she was startled by the flying spear, Shirahoshi still had some lingering fears, she said with fear: "O….okay Mr.Luffy, I trust you"
Bringing Shirahoshi out of Ryugu Palace City, Fukuboshi also brought a few confidant guards along with him.
Considering that Van Der Decken hide in the deep sea, Luffy asked Franky to sail the Merry out, and with the coating, it can sail freely in the deep sea.
Shirahoshi's body is only a little smaller than the Merry, so she can't ride the Merry, she can only swim alongside
"I'm not sure when Van der Daken's next weapon will come, little Shirahoshi, is there any place you want to go?" Luffy asked.
Shirahoshi said timidly: "This..., of course there are many!!! But I want to see my mom first"
Soon, a group of people came to the sea forest.
Princess Shirahoshi paid homage to Princess Otohime, not long after, a weapon flew towards her!!!
Luffy reached out to hold the weapon, then looked in the direction the weapon was coming from, and said: "The basic direction is confirmed, now we can go!!"
Merry set sail
After sailing in the predetermined direction for half an hour, another weapon flew over from the sea!!
"Very good!! Now I feel more certain!"
Luffy's body is covered with a bubble film, standing in the sea water, the Observation Haki is fully active, covering all the surrounding sea areas
After sailing for two hours, Luffy experienced three weapons successively. In the perception of Luffy's Observation Haki, the outline of a pirate ship finally appeared
"Found him!!"Luffy swims forward
Seeing this, Fukuboshi quickly picked up the trident and followed!!
Van der Decken and his group rushed out when they heard the movement outside.
Under Luffy's Conqueror's Haki, those weak pirates were instantly knocked to the ground!!
As for Van der Decken, just as he was to make a move, several arms blossomed out of his body, directly pressing his arms behind his back.
"Van der Decken!! You caused my sister to lose her freedom for 10 years and today I will kill you!!"
Full of anger, Fukuboshi sprinted rapidly, and the thrustetridentr in his hand pierced through VanderDaken's chest!!!
Ten years of grievances, finally vented!!!
The trident in Fukuboshi's hand turned vigorously, smashing Van der Decken's heart completely!!
the next day...
King Neptune hosted the Straw Hat Pirates with the highest banquet celebration!
Sanji sprayed two catties of nosebleed seeing a banquet full of mermaid
That night, Luffy proposed to Neptune the idea of letting Shirahoshi go with him.
When the King heard that Luffy wanted to abduct his precious girl, Neptune naturally refused to agree!!!
But Luffy is patient..., tell Neptune the possible consequences of Shirahoshi Poseidon's identity
finally...
Under Luffy's persuasive persuasion, Neptune drove Luffy and his gang out of Ryugu Palace...
Looking at Luffy's dejected look, Robin couldn't help laughing and said, "Ahaha, I just said, she is the only daughter of the family, how could the King be willing to let her leave his side?"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh Luffy, why don't you try harder!! My lovely Shirahoshi-chan...!!!"
Sanji is lying on a stretcher, He's bleeding a lot these days, so he can't stand up now...
Luffy shrugged his shoulders: "Forget it! What is done is done, let's set off for the New World!"
Shirahoshi: "I still can't get on Mr. Luffy's ship over there..."
Neptune: "If I over there can see the screen of the viewing system, I should agree. But I don't know anything over there, and I certainly won't be willing to let Shirahoshi go"
Nami: "And it seems like it was not meant to be"
Just when Luffy and his group were to board the boat, a shark flew fast!!
When they saw it the can see it is the great prince Fukuboshi who came with Shirahoshi...
Seeing the two, Luffy waved his hand in relief: "Are you here to say goodbye?"
Fukuboshi holds a trident in his hand, folds his arms in front of his chest, and says coldly: "No! I'm here to give you my sister"
Nani???
Suddenly hearing this, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates opened their mouths wide in astonishment!!
"Hey, hello!! Didn't your father, King Neptune, refuse Luffy's request?" Usopp said loudly.
Fukuboshi shrugged his shoulders: "Yes. It's just that Shirahoshi really wanted to see the world, and when she learned that you were leaving, she was crying and fussing yesterday...I really can't bear to see my sister go down like this..."
"Mr. Luffy..., I really want to see the outside world, can you take me with you?" Shirahoshi looked at Luffy pitifully.
"But..., your father..".
For Shirahoshi's initiative, Luffy is very happy.
"You don't have to worry this, I will explain it to my father. In fact, after my father rejected you yesterday, and you did not fprce your way, I know that I can entrust my sister with you!!" Fukuboshi speaks from his heart.
If the Straw Hat Pirates have any evil thoughts Shirahoshi, they can directly take Shirahoshi away
But the Straw Hat Pirates did not do this, this action makes Fukuboshi fully recognize the quality of the Straw Hat Pirates!!
"Since you say that, then what can I say!!! With Shirahoshi's identity, danger will come to her sooner or later. So, I can assure you that you entrust her to me is the best this for her!!"Luffy sincerely assures Fukuboshi.
Afterwards, after some pleasantries, Shirahoshi entered Thousand Sunny, became a partner of the Straw Hat Pirates, and went to the new world!!!
Vinsmoke Sanji: "Wow!!! The little Shirahoshi-chan over there join us!!"
Gol·D·Roger: "With the strength of the Straw Hat Pirates over there, Shirahoshi joined the Straw Hat Pirates, it is indeed much safer than staying in The fish men island!"
Edward Newgate: "That's right! Even if the Marines and Admirals are all dispatched, it's impossible to defeat the Straw Hat Pirates over there!!"
Neptune: "Seeing that Shirahoshi over there finally boarded Straw Hat Luffy's ship, I felt relieved"
Thousand Sunny encountered an archipelago whale on the bottom of the sea, and they were swept along by the deep-sea rapids
By the time they reached the surface of the sea, it was already far away from the log pose
"Sunlight!!--" On the deck, Princess Shirahoshi wears a power swimming ring made by Usopp, so that Shirahoshi can move freely on the deck
She raised her beautiful cheeks, feeling the warmth of the real sun shining on her skin...
For her, it is the best thing in this world!!!
"There is an island ahead, should we dock?" In the communication broadcast, Usopp's voice is heard.
"Okay! Let's dock!!" Following Luffy's order, Thousand Sunny soon dock.
Monkey D. Luffy: "Huh? This is Punk Hazard, right? Why doesn't their Punk Hazard have fire and ice?"
Roronoa Zoro: "It seems that because Aokiji and Akainu on their side did not duel, and the island is still the same as before.
Nico Robin: "Yes, this should be what Punk Hazard looked like..."
Luffy and his party went to Punk Hazard, and found a damaged research institute after walking not far
Luffy got a lot of information from this ruin by listening to the voice of all things
It turns out that this is the scientific research base of the World Government, where various weapons and medicines are researched and developed
Four years ago, Caesar in the Marine science team betrayed Marine, detonated a bomb, and directly destroyed the entire island!!!
And the ruins of the research institute in front of the Straw Hat Pirates is one of the three research institutes.
Knowing that this is actually the place where Vegapunk used to qork, Franky was so happy!!
He rushed in, found the abandoned main engine room, and ate up all the machines inside!!
Afterwards, they found a second abandoned research institute on the island. Franky did the same thing and ate up the entire computer room!!
"How's the effect?" Seeing Franky hiccupping, the partners asked curiously.
"It's great!! Haha!!! With these experimental data and knowledge, my technology will go to the next level!! And there is the last research institute!! Let's go"
The area of this island is not too big, and soon, everyone found the third research institute.
However, just as they were to go in, they saw someone walking out of the research institute.
They were thinking something, they didn't notice the Straw Hat Pirates outside
After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and raised his head suddenly!!
When he saw Luffy's appearance, he jumped back and exclaimed: "The Straw Hat!!!"
At this moment, Trafalgar Law felt like he was f**ked
What the hell? Why did he meet this group of bounty monsters here???
