Start your adventure from Pirate World

These photos were taken by Noel along the way. Otohime looked through them slowly one by one with an expression as if she was about to cry.

These were views she had never seen before.

The towering and majestic Upside Down Mountain, exotic bustling towns, endless deserts, trains running on the sea, lively parties, busy shipyards...

The world on land turns out to be so wonderful?

Although she has been promoting the scenery on land and the human world to the children on Fish-Man Island, in fact, she does not know much about the outside world than the children.

Even on the Shampoo Islands above Fish-Man Island, she had only seen them from a distance under the escort of the navy when she attended the World Conference, but had never set foot on them in person.

Everything she told in the past was just the stories she read in books and her own imagination.

Noel was a little flustered by Otohime's expression, wondering that she had done nothing, and asked cautiously:

"Um, Otohime-empress...?"

"Ah, it's okay, I'm sorry."

Otohime's thoughts were brought back to reality. She gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and solemnly thanked Noel:

"These photos are very, very important to us, so grateful! You will always be friends of Fishman Island!"

"Well, this is not something very expensive,"

Noel didn't expect Otohime's reaction to be so big, "It's just some ordinary photos..."

"But it's a great future for us."

Otohime looked at the photo in her hand, filled with joy, and smiled:

"With these photos, everyone must be able to understand what we are pursuing. In this case, the centuries-old dream of our mermaid and fish people will one day become a reality!"

At this time, Otohime seemed to be shining with brilliance. Noel said nothing more, just offered his blessing and said:

"I think that day is not too far away."

"Thank you. So you agree with me?"

Otohime smiled.

Noel just shrugged:

"Of course I agree with your point of view, but I still think that strength is indispensable."

Otohime's smile faded slightly.

It's not that she can't understand the importance of power, but how can power be so easy to obtain? What price does it cost to obtain power?

On the other side, Sani knew the purpose of Otohime asking her to tell the story, so she quickly omitted the period when she was traveling alone and fast-forwarded to the time when she met Noel's nameless one.

As expected, the children listened with great interest. They looked at the photos in Sani's hands and secretly glanced at Noel and Wuming from time to time. The scenes and protagonists of the story were all available, and they had a wonderful audio-visual experience.

And when Sani talked about their sailing life, in which Noel once killed off the sea king with a single sword, while everyone screamed, some children retorted unceremoniously:

"You're lying! How can humans possibly defeat the Neptunes?"

"I'm not lying, this is..."

"Why do you think it's impossible for humans to defeat the Neptunes?"

Sani was about to explain when suddenly Noel stood up and asked the child with a smile.

When asked face-to-face by the protagonist of the story, the child seemed a little nervous, but still answered:

"Because my father said that we fishmen are more powerful than humans, and even the adults among humans are not as powerful as children like us.

But even my dad can't beat the Neptune type, how can you. "

"That's it."

Noel smiled after hearing this and said:

"It is true that as your father said, most of the fish-men are stronger than humans, but humans also have strong and weak strengths. I am a relatively strong human, so I can beat the Neptune race."

Seeing that the child's expression was obviously unconvinced, Noel simply stretched out his hand and said with a smile:

"How about we compare and see if the strength of adults among humans can match yours?"

"Compare to compare!"

The child scratched his neck and said.

The two came to a platform and prepared to arm-wrestle, and others gathered around curiously to watch.

The child was clearly nervous and tense, but Noel looked amused.

The result was obvious. No matter how hard the child tried, Noel's hand remained motionless as soon as he started using it. With a smile on his face, he pressed down the child's hand bit by bit.

"How about it, am I pretty good?"

Looking at the doubtful child, Noel smiled.

"Oh, what's the point of bullying a child?"

Suddenly, a disdainful voice came from the crowd watching not far away. A tall and burly fishman came out and challenged Noel:

"Do you dare to compete with me?"

(There was a discussion among the crowd:

"Isn't that Jeffrey Eller, the 'Moving General' of the moving company?"

"That's him, he's a real strong man!"

"It is said that he once moved an entire house from the east of the island to the west..."

"Now that human being is going to be embarrassed.")

Noel made a 'please' gesture to him: "Of course."

Jeffrey sat down. The enlarged and hard muscles on his body formed a strong contrast with Noel's slender body. Their arms looked like adults and children.

Seeing this, Otohime couldn't help but feel a little worried, but seeing Wuming and Sani on the side with normal expressions, they didn't seem to care about it, and they didn't say anything in the end.

Jeffrey grinned, looking a little ferocious. The moment he took hold of Noel's hand, he squeezed it tightly, trying to give him a blow.

However, Noel just smiled slightly and asked: "Has it started yet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jeffrey felt a surge of great strength. His expression suddenly changed, and he began to go all out, gritting his teeth, and even blushed because of the excessive exertion.

But his efforts were of no use, just like Noel's competition with the child just now. His arm, which was twice as thick as Noel, slowly fell at a constant speed and finally stuck to the platform.

Ignoring Jeffrey's disbelieving look, Noel stood up as if nothing had happened, and asked again with a smile:

"Anyone else coming?"

Such a dismissive attitude undoubtedly angered people, and another sturdy fishman came out and said:

"I come!"

......

boom!

The result is beyond doubt.

"Anyone else?"

"I come!"

boom!

"Anyone else?"

"I!"

boom!

"Anyone else?"

......

...

What was originally a one-on-one duel turned into a round-robin battle. The news that "there are humans provoking the power of the fishmen in the square" spread like wildfire, attracting more and more challengers, and even formed a long queue.

The atmosphere became more and more intense, and the square became more and more lively. Some people even took the opportunity to set up food stalls, adding to the lively atmosphere.

When passersby saw this, they thought there was some kind of activity going on, and they joined in confusedly. More and more stalls were set up, making the scene more lively and chaotic.

The Dragon Palace Guards also had to dispatch more people to maintain order, and it looked more like an event.

"Come on Noel!"

"come on! Come on!"

"Won again, great!"

The children stood in the seats closest to Noel. Originally, they were still discussing who could defeat Noel, but then they unknowingly began to cheer for Noel. There were even more people in the crowd supporting Noel.

There are also losers complaining to each other:

"Why did you lose again? What the hell are you doing? Did you use any force?!"

"proceed if you can!"

"I've already lost!"

"You guy..."

"..."

Otohime suddenly burst into tears at the lively scene in front of her.
