Chapter 181
Not long after.
A fierce gust of wind swept in.
Everyone in the hall raised their arms to block the wind and closed their eyes.
Especially the mermaid ladies on the other side, who couldn’t help but scream.
When the wind died down, everyone finally saw the culprit behind the commotion.
"This... this is..."
Except for Rorschach’s group, everyone else had their mouths wide open, as if they had seen a ghost.
The one who arrived was Little Silver, who had left not long ago.
Its body had now swelled back to its original size, with a streamlined figure, handsome yet domineering appearance.
In its hand, it was holding a human head — it was the previously mentioned Vander Decken.
Seeing this head, Neptune and the three princes’ eyes instantly turned red.
Finally! This scum was finally dead!
The nightmare that had plagued Shirahoshi for eight years! The culprit who prevented Shirahoshi from leaving the Hard Shell Tower!
Now he had been killed so simply.
"Thank you so much for your help! Lord Rorschach!"
Tears welled up in the corners of Neptune’s eyes as he bowed his head in sincere and solemn gratitude.
The three princes bowed their heads to Rorschach in the same way.
"It was a small matter."
Rorschach waved his hand casually and said.
Jinbe, on the other hand, was more shocked by Little Silver’s speed and strength.
It had solved something he had never been able to do in all these years so quickly.
Moreover, this size was exactly the same as the one reported in the newspapers. Was it an ability to control its size?! ƒreewebɳovel.com
It seemed it was true, as Rorschach said — this dragon species’ combat power was the same as his own.
A twin emperor crew! Such a configuration hadn’t appeared on the sea for a very long time.
Who was the last pirate crew with this kind of configuration?
A name surfaced in Jinbe’s mind — the Rocks Pirates!
Three of the current Four Emperors were once crew members of the Rocks Pirates!
Rorschach’s master, the Golden Lion, was also once a member of the Rocks Pirates.
He inherited Rocks’ will and ambition, wanting to dominate the world, but ultimately failed again.
The words Rorschach said in the report also showed that he had inherited the Golden Lion’s will.
But could this man fulfill that ambition? Become the new king of this world!
Jinbe looked at the young-looking Rorschach. It seemed the winds and waves of the sea would not stop. The world was likely to become turbulent once again.
"Now, can I meet this legendary mermaid princess? I’m very curious about her beauty."
"Hahaha, no problem. I’ll have someone bring Shirahoshi out right away."
Hearing Rorschach’s urgency, Neptune laughed heartily and waved his hand to have his subordinates call Shirahoshi.
"No need. Why don’t I go over myself? I can also tell Princess Shirahoshi the news so she can come and go freely in the future."
Rorschach shook his hand and said.
"That works too. Then let me lead the way. I think Shirahoshi will be very happy when she hears this news."
Neptune showed a doting father’s smile and nodded in agreement.
He was also very happy now, eager to tell Shirahoshi the news.
She could finally leave this cage and "see" her mother.
Upon hearing this, everyone stood up, planning to go see Princess Shirahoshi together.
Camie, Ishilly, and the others had only seen Princess Shirahoshi when they were young. It had already been eight years. They wondered what Princess Shirahoshi looked like now.
Excitement flashed in their eyes.
"I’m really looking forward to it. I wonder if the rumored beauty is real."
Rorschach also looked very interested and muttered to himself.
Neptune, who was walking in front, happened to "hear" his mutter. A drop of sweat immediately fell from his forehead.
Then he recalled some of Rorschach’s rumors, plus the many beautiful women around him.
Emmmm... no way?
Neptune’s forehead broke out in even more cold sweat.
Was the cabbage he had raised for so many years about to be harvested? No, not that!
No, no, how could he doubt Lord Rorschach like that? He was the great benefactor of Fish-Man Island, and even more so Shirahoshi’s great benefactor. He definitely wouldn’t do what was in his mind.
Yes, yes, that kind of thing definitely wouldn’t happen.
Thinking about it, Neptune couldn’t help nodding his head, convincing himself.
But in others’ eyes, Neptune really didn’t know what he was doing — suddenly looking very panicked, covered in sweat, then looking determined, and nodding to himself.
"Is King Neptune okay? Is he sick?"
Ishilly looked with worried eyes and quietly asked the pillar of support beside her, Madam Shyarly.
Madam Shyarly glanced at him, then shook her head without replying.
How would she know what was going on in Neptune’s mind? He was probably having an episode.
Soon.
Everyone arrived in front of the Hard Shell Tower that protected Princess Shirahoshi.
It was covered with all kinds of weapons — axes, swords, spears, all kinds of cold weapons stuck all over it.
Neptune surprisingly hadn’t thought about clearing these weapons and repairing the walls.
If the tower collapsed, and something happened afterward, he would really worry about Princess Shirahoshi’s life.
"Before we go in, please be understanding, Lord Rorschach. Shirahoshi has a rather weak personality, and she is very timid and likes to cry. If she causes any displeasure to you, please don’t get angry."
Before entering, Neptune reminded Rorschach.
"Don’t worry. I wouldn’t get angry at a cute girl. I quite like the weak and timid type of girls too."
Rorschach said with a smile and waved his hand.
Thump.
Neptune suddenly felt he had made a wrong decision. He had a feeling Rorschach came to Fish-Man Island specifically for Shirahoshi.
Creak.
Pushing open the door of the Hard Shell Tower, inside was pitch black, so dark you couldn’t see your hand in front of you.
Neptune turned on the lights. They saw a huge bed, on which lay a massive mermaid.
From Rorschach and the others’ perspective, they only saw a huge pink fish tail.
"Emmm..."
Shirahoshi, who was sleeping, reacted to the sudden bright light. She murmured a couple of times, and her eyes showed signs of opening.
Then she rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up.
At this moment, everyone saw Shirahoshi’s full appearance.
Shirahoshi was a giant oarfish mermaid. At only fourteen years old, she was already a full 10 meters tall, just 2 meters shorter than Neptune. By the time she was 16, she would almost be as tall as Neptune.
She had flowing pink long curly hair, a taiyaki-shaped hair accessory on her head, a pair of shell-shaped earrings, bright blue eyes, and delicate features.
The most striking thing was her bountiful upper body that didn’t match her age at all. There were two cute little blushes on her face. Because she had been woken up, her mouth was slightly puffed up, making her look a bit adorably small.
Although still a little immature, this appearance truly deserved to be called Princess Shirahoshi, who was said to rival the world’s number one beauty!
"Father?"
Shirahoshi looked at Neptune who appeared in front of her, and her face showed a happy expression.
Neptune was usually very busy with affairs and rarely came to see her, so every time he visited, it made her very happy.
Then her gaze shifted downward, and she saw her three brothers were also here.
Her originally happy expression became even happier. Her three brothers had also rarely come to see her recently as they were helping Neptune with affairs. She didn’t expect them to come see her together this time. It was wonderful.
As her gaze shifted again, she saw Rorschach and the others.
Especially Rorschach’s eyes, which seemed like they wanted to eat her up, staring straight at her.
Her expression visibly changed from happy to somewhat timid and cautious.
"F... Father... who are they?"
Shirahoshi’s timid skill activated as she spoke fearfully.
Her body unconsciously shrank, as if she wanted to curl up into a ball. Her bountiful upper body looked almost too heavy to bear, on the verge of bursting out.
