One Piece: Transform into the Eight Great Demons.

To the residents of Ryugu Kingdom, Princess Otohime's "weight" is very important.

She is a warm-blooded and compassionate princess of the fish people.

Even misguided villains will be influenced by her will and even reflect on their past mistakes.

Such a thing sounds very...

hypocritical?

Because it is too bizarre, it even seems to be a fabricated deed.

But this is indeed the "fact".

This sea is too vast, so naturally there will be simple "good people" like Princess Otohime.

……

After some contact and conversation, Nico Robin also developed a liking for Princess Otohime.

They talked about their adventures along the way, as well as various people and things.

Afterwards, Lindsay took Uta away.

At the same time, at the edge of the coral clearing, an old murloc man passed by.

He has a stooped body and simple clothes, looking like an undersea farmer.

The patrolling guards came forward to ask, and the old grandpa replied that he was here to dig wild vegetables from the seabed, so they let him pass.

Princess Otohime likes to be with common people, so she often does not issue orders such as "martial law" when traveling.

The old grandpa was walking slowly, and when he looked up, he saw two groups of people having a picnic.

"Princess Otohime?"

"Hey, why are you here?"

The old grandpa took three steps at a time and trotted over to Princess Otohime.

Just at this time, Lindsay also hugged Uta back.

Everyone gathered together and heard the old grandpa’s melancholy complaint:

"Princess, please be careful lately!"

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

"..."

"Ok?"

Princess Otohime was stunned, she had never heard this before.

"Excuse me, when did it happen?"

"Just the past few days!"

The old grandpa murmured: "This place is very close to Fishman Street, so you might be infected too..."

"No, what if I'm infected too?"

The old grandpa jumped back, put some distance between himself and Princess Otohime, and covered his mouth at the same time.

This series of actions left several people present puzzled.

Fishman Street?

Is there an infectious disease outbreak in Fishman Street?

……

What kind of place is the "Fishman Street" mentioned by the old grandpa?

This has been mentioned many times before.

The giant ship Noah is located in the deep sea below Fishman Street.

On the way to Noah, the guards who led the way deliberately avoided the "shortcut" across Fishman Street.

why?

Because Fishman Street is the most chaotic lawless area in Fishman Island!

It was originally a large place to house orphans, but due to various reasons, it eventually spawned a large number of illegal groups.

Although they live on Fish-Man Island, they do not accept the jurisdiction of the Dragon Palace Kingdom. At most, they are given a little thin noodles.

Fischer Tiger, Jinbei, Aaron, etc. are all representative figures born here.

……

In such a place, if something happens, the residents tend to resolve it internally and will not report it to Dragon Palace City.

Therefore, Princess Otohime did not know anything about the infectious disease.

If I hadn't accidentally come to the Coral Glades today, and the fishman old man passed by by chance, it would have taken even longer to know the news about the fishman street.

"Don't be afraid, come and sit first."

Princess Otohime extended her hand to signal.

The domineering aura of being born with extremely special knowledge and knowledge spread, and he sensed the physical condition of old grandpa.

"In my opinion, you are in good health, please don't worry."

"Is this...is that so?"

Even though she is a resident of Fishman Street, she still respects and trusts Princess Otohime.

Now that she had said that, the old grandpa naturally breathed a sigh of relief and sat cross-legged on the picnic mat.

Taking a long breath, he began to tell.

"That was a few nights ago, and someone heard a terrible noise."

"When everyone rushed over, they only found a frightened bastard."

"He muttered words like 'evil' and 'scary'."

When the old grandpa said this, his expression darkened.

"After that, strange diseases broke out!"

"People who are sick may appear to be just like ordinary people, but under certain unknown conditions, their whole bodies will emit smoke and spontaneously combust!"

"It only takes a short moment, and it will turn into ashes. It's very scary!"

The old grandpa gestured:

"We gathered all the patients together, but we still couldn't stop the spread of the infectious disease. Everyone got sick one after another."

"Every night, we can still hear the piercing roar, not from sea animals or wind, but from something else..."

"Anyway, it's not far from Fishman Street. Princess, you must be careful!"

"..."

After saying that, the old grandpa took a piece of cake, stood up and thanked him, and then prepared to leave.

Seeing this scene, Robin asked in confusion: "The situation over there is so bad, why don't you seek help from Dragon Palace City?"

"..."

The old grandfather did not answer directly, but looked at Robin first.

"Humanity?"

Due to their heavy past, most of the residents of Fishman Street hate humans.

"I'm really getting older, and my temper has improved a lot..."

"If you were young, even if Princess Otohime was around, you would probably start a fight."

The old grandpa shook his head helplessly and took off his upper body shirt.

Fierce tattoos all over the back!

"Back then, I was also a 'leader' in Fishman Street."

"Little human girl, it's hard for you to understand the spirit of Fishman Street."

"The Ryugu Kingdom is trying to establish diplomatic relations with humans. This is something I still cannot agree with, even if the proposer is you, Princess Otohime."

"There are not a few people in Fishman Street who have the same idea as me."

"So, we will solve the difficulties on our own and we don't need external help."

The old grandpa put on his shirt, patted his pants, and said goodbye to everyone.

When he turned his head, he saw a human face, very close to it.

It's Alvin Lindsay.

"?!"

This sudden scene shocked the old grandpa.

Lindsay, on the other hand, looked thoughtful and signaled to the old grandpa: "Please wait a moment, I will let others hear the news."

After saying that, regardless of whether the old grandpa agreed or not, Lindsay trotted back to the other two people.

Margao and Katakuri.

They are seriously exploring various possibilities and thinking about the purpose of the Beast Pirates.

There is a vague sense of competition, so it seems full of gunpowder.

"Fish-Man Island is [Whitebeard]'s territory after all, but he can tolerate Kaido's people running wild here?"

"Haha, after all, dad is a very open-minded person, so he doesn't strictly control his territory. This is indeed not as good as [aunt]."

"Hmph, [Whitebeard]'s deterrence has decreased..."

"No, otherwise why didn't [Aunt] come and occupy Fish-Man Island?"

"..."

Although neither of them knew how to take action, they became increasingly angry as they talked.

Just at this moment, Lindsay popped up, raised her hands and said, "I said -"

Margao said: "[Aunt] probably doesn't want to have a conflict with Kaido, right?"

Lindsay waved, "You--"

Katakuri said: "If you dare to attack our people, whether it is Kaido or [Whitebeard], you will have to pay the price!"

Lindsay clenched her chin, "There's——"

Mal raised his eyebrows and said, "Can you really ask for a price for going to someone else's territory without even saying hello?"

Lindsay: "..."

The words between the two became more and more intense. Lindsay tried many times, but obviously couldn't get in.

How to do?

Lindsay looked at the two people sitting cross-legged on the ground and thought for a moment.

Afterwards, Margao was moved first and moved to Princess Otohime's side.

Katakuri: "?!"

What's the meaning! ?

This scene was so bizarre that Katakuri was stunned on the spot.

Before he could react, he was lifted up by Lindsay and moved to Margao's side.

Margo: "..."

Katakuri: "..."

The two began to stare at each other.

Everyone gathered together, and Lindsay pushed the old fishman grandfather over and laid him on the ground.

Then he also sat down and said seriously: "Please say it again."

"..."

……

After a brief moment of astonishment, the old grandpa repeated it.

Although he really didn't want to talk to humans, he always felt that if he didn't do so, he would be threatened and forced to repeat it.

As one of the former leaders, the old man's intuition was very keen.

"..."

After a while, the old grandpa finished retelling.

Margao and Katakuri sat cross-legged, lowering their heads in deep thought.

Infected with a strange disease?

The Beast Pirates?

There seems to be a "scientist" in the Beast Pirates who specializes in viral weapons.

The latest chapter 1098 takes place in the year 1508 of the Haiyuan calendar, which roughly coincides with the current timeline.

But there’s a lot of plot still developing, and forcing it in would cause big problems.

So I will write it sooner or later, but it may not be the next big chapter, it may be arranged later.

Let me think about it carefully, think about it...
