One Piece: Transform into the Eight Great Demons.

Coral Glades.

The guards of Dragon Palace City were scattered outside.

It looks like a patrol, but it actually soothes the body and mind and calms the fear and uneasiness in the heart.

Their main job is to protect the safety of Princess Otohime.

But when Princess Otohime walked towards the coral clearing, the nature of everything changed.

……

Princess Otohime does not need their protection at this time.

Because there is no more "safe" place than there;

At this time, they were unable to protect Princess Otohime;

Because there is no more "dangerous" place than there.

……

How to describe it?

"It's enough to advocate peaceful coexistence with humans. How can we still communicate with those scary guys?"

The guards thought for a while and finally said helplessly:

"It should be said that she is indeed the Princess Otohime!"

……

Coral Glades, within.

"Huh...huh~huh..."

Princess Otohime was humming a song, leisurely spreading the picnic mat, and then gently placing the basket on it.

Opening the basket, it was filled with desserts and snacks, all specialties of Fishman Island.

She took out the dessert and distributed it to several people in front of her.

First came the youngest Uta, then Nico Robin, and finally Crocodile with his eyes twitching wildly.

"..."

Crocodile took the dessert cake and nodded to Princess Otohime.

Otohime smiled back, and then started chatting with the two little girls, listening to their many adventures along the way.

The oppression of the Draco, the prosperity of Alabasta, the destruction and rebirth of Elegia...

Princess Otohime is deeply fascinated by everything about human beings, whether good or evil.

She turned her head to look not far away and sighed softly.

"Tiger is right, both fish-men and humans are equally complicated..."

"Maybe this is what life has in common?"

"..."

……

Not far away, where Princess Otohime is looking.

Lindsay, Margao, and Katakuri sat around on another picnic mat and had another picnic party.

They all know that the current situation is no nonsense.

Instead, Princess Otohime personally came forward to create an "opportunity" for the three of them.

Princess Otohime has a lot of respect, and the three of them will not deny it.

the reason is simple--

Alvin Lindsay and his party were taken care of by Princess Otohime;

As a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, Margo is naturally on good terms with Princess Otohime;

As for Katakuri, who was the most difficult to get, he secretly accepted a "dessert shop hidden menu coupon".

"..."

"Is it the extremely special Haki who can listen to the voice of the heart as mentioned in the rumors on Fish-Man Island?"

"intrinsic?"

"Huh, whatever..."

Katakuri thought for a moment, then raised his lowered eyes and stared at the two people in front of him.

He didn't want to get involved with these two.

But it is undeniable that the purposes of the three people do seem to "overlap".

So he spoke first and said:

"The princess of Fishman Island seems to have the domineering power to distinguish lies."

"So, my words have been proven."

Katakuri said slowly:

"Mom, she likes the desserts from Fish-Man Island very much, but we won't refute Whitebeard's reputation."

"So, there is a normal trade relationship between the Big Mom Pirates and some dessert shops on Fishman Island."

"But not long ago, the crew member who was sent to Fish-Man Island to purchase desserts suddenly disappeared."

"Mom was very angry because there was no dessert, and she wanted to cause trouble on Fish-Man Island, but we managed to persuade her to stop."

Katakuri raised an eyebrow.

"The Navy and the World Government are very restless right now. Although the Yonko Pirates are at odds with each other, they are not prone to direct conflicts."

"So, I came here personally. While purchasing desserts, I wanted to investigate the reason."

"..."

Katakuri's rhetoric remained the same.

If it were before, Margao would never believe it, but now Princess Otohime is the witness.

"Someone attacked the Big Mom Pirates?"

Margao rubbed his chin, feeling more and more mysterious about the situation on Fish-Man Island.

After thinking for a moment, he simply told everything about his situation.

The most critical point among them is the "Yonko Pirates who are planning something"!

"Um?!"

Katakuri frowned and said in a deep voice:

"You mean, there is a group of Yonko pirates lurking near Fish-Man Island, planning something?"

"This multiple-choice question is not difficult, right?"

Yes, indeed.

There are four Yonko, and the two "representatives" present have helped eliminate two of them.

The remaining two are well known——

[Red Hair] Shanks, [Hundred Beasts] Kaido!

Facing Katakuri, Margao always found this discussion atmosphere very interesting, so he simply murmured:

"Who on earth is it?"

"..."

Lindsay crossed her lips and said, "This matter has nothing to do with [red hair]."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Margao and Katakuri couldn't help but smile.

Margao waved his hand and reminded:

"Although [Red Hair] is the smallest among the Four Emperors, their ambitions are far greater than that. We cannot underestimate them."

Katakuri's face darkened, "[Red Hair] is a very dangerous person. It's not impossible that he attacks us!"

The two of them turned their heads at the same time and glanced at Alvin Lindsay.

"[Devil], what you said is too harsh."

"You believe in your own guess too much, [Devil]."

"..."

Obviously, both of them have great distrust of Lindsay's "judgment".

Lindsay: "..."

The corners of his mouth twitched and he suddenly stood up, startling the other two people.

"?!"

Lindsay jogged all the way to the picnic on the other side.

Picked up Uta whose mouth was full of cake.

He jogged all the way again and returned to the original place.

Putting the Uta down, he signaled: "Let Dad go talk to them."

Uta: "Okay!"

"..."

Seeing this scene, Margao and Katakuri were a little confused, and even started to laugh.

[Devil] Are you really crazy?

Why did you find the parent of a little girl while talking?

The two of them turned around helplessly and started talking about business.

"The current Fishman Island——

Before he finished speaking, a voice suddenly interrupted.

"Ha! Aren't these Margao and Katakuri? Long time no see!"

"..."

Such a familiar voice made the two of them pause, and their brains even failed to react for a while.

They continued: "The situation in Fishman Island is very——

The voice sounded again, "How about it, Margao, do you want to be my crew member?"

"..."

"Oh, and Katakuri, I haven't seen you out for a long time!"

"..."

There was a short but long silence.

Margao and Katakuri suddenly turned their heads, their pupils narrowed suddenly, staring at the source of the familiar voice.

I saw Uta holding a video phone bug. On the screen above the phone bug, there was a familiar face——

[Red Hair] Shanks!

He himself was on his own ship, establishing contact with Fish-Man Island through the phone bug.

"?!"

This scene made Margao and Katakuri startled at the same time, and they looked up at the girl with red and white hair.

"Are you..."

"Oh, haven't you introduced me yet?"

Shanks sounded quite proud, pointing to Uta above and said: "This is my daughter, she's super cute, isn't she?"

"..."

"daughter?!"

Even though they were the second-in-command of the Yonko Pirates and had seen many big scenes, they still couldn't suppress the shock in their voices.

Although [Big Mom] Charlotte Lingling has many children, Katakuri is one of them, and the Big Mom Pirates were founded from this.

But [Red Hair] is different from [Aunt].

The structure of the Red Hair Pirates is very similar to the Roger Pirates back then.

If such a captain has children, it will definitely be a heavyweight matter.

The specific situation will be clear if you look at how the world government hunted down the "Sons of Roger".

"That's true!"

Margao put his hand on his face and said with a joking smile: "If I tell my father, he will probably think that I am drunk."

"No wonder [Devil] is so determined, and [Red Hair]'s daughter is still with him. It seems that [Devil] and [Red Hair] are also related."

Katakuri narrowed his eyes.

"It's very unexpected information..."

"..."

Shanks didn't care.

After chatting with Uta about daily life and telling him to eat more vegetables, he hung up the phone.

And now that the matter is over, the mystery of Fish-Man Island seems to have the answer——

"Hundred Beast Pirates!"

"Well, he's from Kaido."

"right?"

"Um, is Kaido one of the four emperors as famous as dad?"

"..."

Margao and Katakuri turned their heads at the same time and stared at Lindsay.

Lindsay: "..."

He stood up again and hugged Uta back.

……

Passing by Princess Otohime, I wanted to grab two donuts, but suddenly I noticed that there was an old fish-man grandpa.

He was dressed like an undersea farmer and was anxiously describing something to Princess Otohime.

"Princess, please be careful lately!"

The old grandfather said sadly:

"Over at Fishman Street, a strange disease broke out recently. It's so dangerous!"
