Chapter 425 Negotiation
"The great prince."
"?!"
Hearing someone calling him, Shark Xing, who returned to the accommodation arranged for them by the East China Sea Navy, also came to his senses. He raised his head and looked at Xiaoba, who still looked a little weak. He was surprised and said, "Are you back?"
There was a slight pause, but he did not continue to ask about what happened next. Since Xiaoba is back, it means that the matter has been resolved.
After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Xiaoba, who had only two hands left, and then said, "Do you need someone to take a look?"
"No need. It has been simply bandaged. There will be no problem. Chief Xia Che showed mercy at that time."
"Chief Xia Che... I couldn't see him draw his sword clearly at that time. His swordsmanship may no longer be weaker than that of the world's greatest swordsman, or even stronger!" Shark Star also sighed with emotion, with a hint of emotion in his tone. He was amazed and shocked, "No wonder even after the World Government also took action, it still had to compromise."
It seems that the strength of the leader of the East China Sea Navy is far beyond their imagination!
"Being able to make the World Government compromise, the strength of the East China Sea Navy has surpassed that of the Four Emperors, and I heard about that war in the Chambord Islands... At that time, a dazzling light and explosion suddenly appeared in the sky above the Holy Land Mariejoia. It seems that he was attacked by some terrible weapon." Xiao Hachi also nodded and said angrily, "And it happened many times in a row. Therefore, some people in the Xiangbo Islands speculated that the East China Sea Navy must have some kind of weapon that the world government is afraid of. Maybe even..."
He paused for a moment, with disbelief in his tone, "Legendary ancient weapons!"
"?!"
Ancient weapons...
Hearing Xiaoba mention the words [ancient weapon], Shark Star's pupils suddenly shrank, but quickly returned to normal, as if nothing happened.
"Of course these are everyone's guesses, and the navy stationed there won't let everyone talk about this matter. They also said that Mariejoia has not been attacked in any way. No matter who it is, everyone must be in awe of the Holy Land Mariejoia." Xiaoba took out his only two remaining hands and scratched his head. He didn't seem to notice anything was wrong with Prince Shark Star, and continued to say angrily, "Therefore, I don't know whether it is true or not, forget it, let's not talk about it. This is it, eldest prince, you..."
Looking at Prince Shark Star, he hesitated and said, "Over there at the East China Sea Navy... how was the conversation with the Prince?"
"The recruitment talks went very smoothly. Leader Xia Che really needs to recruit a group of fishmen and mermaids to work." Hearing Xiaoba ask about this matter, the Shark Star Prince also showed a faint smile on his face, "I He has already promised that when he returns, he will personally select some fishmen and mermaids who are close to humans. Under the protection of the East China Sea Navy, I believe they will not be bullied by other forces. "
"At the same time, we also discussed some business. The products produced by the East China Sea Navy will officially enter Fish-Man Island. In addition, I also purchased a batch of weapons and equipment from the East China Sea Navy, oh, and food."
"I have to say that things from the East China Sea Navy are really cheap! It's much cheaper than what we buy from those pirates, especially the food... it's very abundant. No wonder the civilians in the East China Sea are so rich."
Fish-Man Island can be said to be rich, but it can also be said to be poor!
Although it is easier for fishmen and mermaids to obtain treasures in the sea than humans, but for ordinary fishmen and fishmen, the deep sea is very dangerous.
And even if they get the treasure, mermaids and fishmen don't dare to trade with humans easily.
After all, for humans, mermaids and fishmen... are also goods that can be traded. Countless such things have happened in the Dragon Palace Kingdom for hundreds of years.
The mermaids wanted to exchange goods with humans, but in the end they didn't even have the goods.
Therefore, there are not many poor fishmen in Fishman Island, and there are even many orphans who rely on robbery and theft to survive!
The former Fishman Street was a large place specially used to house orphans. Among them, Tiger Boss, Jinbei, Aaron and Hachi all came from here, as did Hody Jones.
But a lot of things happened later, and Fishman Street has become an area where criminal groups gather now.
"I hope this can bring some changes to the Fish-Man Island! But..." He sighed helplessly, "Leader Xia Che needs a lot of people, and... let the fish-men work for humans."
He covered his head with a headache, "I guess there will be trouble in Fishman Street because of this!"
"...Fishman Street?" Xiao Hachi was silent for a moment, then looked at Shark Star with firm eyes, "Don't worry, I will also help. I will let them understand that the eldest prince, Princess Otohime and Boss Tiger and their hard work!”
"Then I'll leave it to you. As someone who was born in Fishman Street, you may be able to help them understand that if there is anything they need help from the Dragon Palace Kingdom, please tell them." Shark Star was not shy, he understood this kind of thing. It would be better to let Xiao Ba do it, "Also...be sure to pay attention to guys like Hody Jones and Vander Deken IX, don't..."
He paused again, "Thus, there will be another conflict between fish-men and humans!"
"I know what to do." Xiaoba nodded seriously, "Just leave it to me, Xiaoba!"
After saying that, he hesitated again and asked, "Eldest Prince, what about Joyboy...?"
"Joyboy?" Hearing Xiaoba's words, Shark Star was silent for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Chief Xia Che said that he was not Joey Boy. He also said that Joey Boy might have just been Go to sea!”
"???"
"This is probably a joke made by Chief Xia Che! I can tell that he also knows the legend of Joyboy, but he doesn't seem to care about it at all." Shark Star walked to the window and looked out the window. Although it was already dark now , but the lights are still bright at night here in the Conomi Islands, and people are still coming and going on the streets. With a hint of confusion in his eyes, he said, "When I left, he also said to me: "Put your hope in A person who failed eight hundred years ago, haven’t you, Fish-Man Island, ever thought of finding other ways on your own?”
"?!" Xiaoba on the side was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that the leader of the East China Sea Navy would actually say such a thing. His face was stunned, he opened his mouth, then closed it again, as if he didn't know what to say, and finally , still showed a bitter smile and said, "It's really admirable!"
"It is indeed admirable. Perhaps this is why Chief Xia Che can make the East China Sea the most peaceful place in this chaotic era!" Shark Star also nodded with admiration, "It's just..."
But after saying this, he smiled bitterly and said, "How can it be so easy for a fishman to find other ways?"
Tiger Boss failed!
His mother also failed!
And perhaps because of the ancient weapons, the World Government has also been wary of their Fish-Man Island.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. We don't know if Joeyboy is really here." Shark Star glanced around and said doubtfully, "Where are the others? And where is Emperor Star? Why aren't they here?"
"They saw it was very lively outside, so they planned to go out for a stroll. After all, this is a rare opportunity." Xiao Bahan laughed and scratched his head, "Let me tell you not to worry about them, they will be back soon. of!"
"These guys... are indeed a rare opportunity!" Shark Star was stunned for a moment, then frowned again.
In fact, these murlocs and mermaids who are close to humans have never been on land. Basically, their understanding of humans comes from their mother's teachings, other murlocs, and passing pirates.
After all, most of the fishmen and mermaids who have been to human land hate humans.
only……
Shark Star was still a little dissatisfied and said, "No matter what, we are fishmen and mermaids, how can we go out at will?"
"Don't worry, I have already told Colonel Kailin, and Colonel Kailin has also promised that no one will take action against the fishmen and mermaids here. If they do, the East China Sea Navy will never let them go." Xiao Bahan smiled. Said, "The eldest prince, would you like to go out for a walk? This is a rare opportunity. Compared to the Chambord Islands, this place will definitely be safer!"
"Then..." Shark Xing, who was originally a little dissatisfied, suddenly flashed his eyes, then fake coughed twice, and said in a steady and mature tone, "Let me go out and take a look too!"
