From a Pirate to a Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 167: Jinpei, a Thoughtful Person
Although sometimes he would lend a helping hand to people like Sanji and Rouge because of the characters in his memories, and would give the Ope-no-fruit to Trafalgar Law because of his potential and explain the hidden dangers therein.

But Kevin's firm will to change the world has prevented him from taking his anger out on others because of his memories of his past life.

For example, Aaron in front of him, or Jinbei who had attacked him before.

If you want to make the world what you want it to be, force is indispensable, but it is only a part of it.

It is true that he could kill the fishmen surrounding him in a rage, or break their limbs, or even throw them at the entrance of Ryugu Castle, but Neptune would not be able to do anything to him.

But if we do this, then the firm will we have maintained all along will become a joke.

The murlocs hate humans, ordinary people are afraid of them, and slave-hunting teams capture them. In fact, the good and evil in this are clear and simple from the perspective of the values ​​of the time.

Kevin glanced at the two goalkeepers behind Tiger and said, "Don't stare at me like that. Although this face is almost as handsome as my real appearance, it is definitely not my real appearance."

Aaron snorted softly, "Cowardly human."

"Snapped."

The next moment, a large bibi hit the back of his head, causing him to stagger.

"Who? Bastard!"

Aaron covered the back of his head and looked around, only to find that the mermaids in the cafe were far away from here, looking at him blankly.

Kevin flashed back and forth, looking at the idiot with a half-smile: "Although there is no distinction between noble and humble lives, as a guest of Dragon Palace City, and a guest who is much stronger than you, I think you should learn to respect him, right?"

Jinbei covered his face and didn't want to look at the opponent beside him who grew up with him in Fishman Street. He just cursed in a low voice: "Idiot."

On the way here, Boss Tiger had already told this person's true identity.

A big shot with a bounty of 3.2 billion... What courage allows you to speak like that?

Although the voice was low, it was obvious that Aaron heard it.

He rolled up his sleeves and said, "What did you just say, you bastard? You want to fight?"

"Aaron."

As soon as Tiger, who had been silent, spoke, he suppressed Aaron's anger that was about to explode.

Tiger looked at him with a serious look: "You must respect the sir. The sir saved my life, and it also concerns the future of Fishman Island."

"You hate the condescending attitude of some humans in the Sabaody Archipelago, so now you have become like them, looking down on those who are weaker than you..."

"So now... haven't you become the person you once hated?"

After the words fell, Aaron's face looked ugly, but he did not dare to refute.

Fishman Street used to be a place where orphans from Fishman Island were taken in, but later due to various reasons, it became a lawless area of ​​Fishman Island in a sense.

In this situation, the fishmen children, who are orphans to begin with, naturally need to fight and be strong if they want to survive.

Even Jinbei, who was known for his principles and morals in our memories, now had the same reputation as a ruthless person earned in Fishman Street.

"Human...Mr. Human, here is your coffee."

The female mermaid waitress was a little nervous.

Kevin simply thanked him and nodded.

Mm...very beautiful.

It seems that there is no ugly young female mermaid, it’s just that when they get older... You can refer to the one in the Seven Water City.

"You and your sister have completely different personalities... This mermaid cafe in Coral Hill has mermaid waiters, but many of the manual laborers in the kitchen are fishmen, and they are all quite young."

Kevin said, looking at Aaron: "Your sister should be only fourteen years old, right? In comparison, you don't seem to have done anything meaningful except being competitive."

"Humph."

Aaron still refused to accept it.

The waitress carrying the tray was a little flustered. She knew the store manager's brother, and she also knew Jinbe and Boss Tiger.

"It's okay. Also, if your store manager comes back, can you let her know for me? I want to see her."

The waiter glanced at Boss Tiger and nodded in panic: "Okay...Okay, Mr. Human."

After leaving, the waitress quickly went into the kitchen. It was obvious that she had a mission when she brought the coffee, and now she was going back to report.

It has been a long time since any human appeared on Fishman Island, not to mention that they were accompanied by Tiger, the leader of Fishman Street.

Returning to the topic of the chat, Kevin took a sip of the specialty coffee here and felt that it was not as pretty as the mermaid sisters.

"The unknown breeds fear. This sea is divided by the Red Land Continent and the Calm Belt. Ordinary humans have never seen murlocs before. It's not without reason that they think they are monsters because they have no communication with them."

"The human trafficking organization in the Sabaody Archipelago captures fishermen. Ordinary humans are afraid of you, and naturally they become enemies."

Kevin instilled new knowledge into Tiger: "But after traveling for several years, you should also know that there are more people in this world with more tragic fates than you people in Fishman Island."

"The population of Fishman Island is over five million. This number is probably much higher than the number of people who die every year in the world due to various reasons, Tiger."

The coffee placed in front of Tiger remained untouched. The red-skinned fishman in front of him frowned and clenched his hands.

Before being brought to Marijoa, he had indeed traveled on the sea and seen many things.

The pirates plundered human towns, and the old man was taken away because he couldn't pay the heavenly gold.

Although he was born in Fishman Street, unlike Aaron, he still has his own bottom line and kindness.

He once saved a village that was being robbed by a group of small pirates. The young people were terrified of his appearance, but the old people also knelt on the ground to thank him for his help.

He had been betrayed, and someone informed the navy afterwards, and someone in the navy informed the slave-catching team for money.

He was truly appreciated. The villagers took out their only food to entertain him. When they learned that someone was trying to catch him, they let him escape through the mountain road behind the village. An old man was knocked to the ground by the slave-catching team.

It was precisely because of these experiences that he could empathize with the humans who had the same tragic fate on Marijoa, and that if Kevin had not appeared, he would have made up his mind to climb up the 10,000-meter-high Red Earth Continent to liberate all the slaves.

Not everyone has this kind of courage, especially after having been enslaved by the Celestial Dragons, the fear of being unable to resist will penetrate deep into their bones.

Even the future empress would tremble and become vulnerable because of the mark of the Sky-Soaring Dragon's Hoof on her back.

"Sir... good and evil have no racial distinction, right? Or, good and evil should never be distinguished by race."

Jinbei's eyes lit up at Tiger's words.

Kevin also looked at them: "Aaron. I never said that it was wrong for the fish people to avenge their enslaved compatriots, but shouldn't we say that they were enslaved by humans? The human trafficking organization in the Sabaody Archipelago, I killed batch after batch early on, do you think I am in the same group with them?"

"The basis of distinguishing right from wrong is the inner values. People who are impotent and furious, because they cannot defeat the person who hurt them, vent their anger on the innocent weak and find an excuse for themselves. We are all human."

"But you should also be aware that those evils also enslave humans, right? They are all oppressed lives in this world. Instead of uniting to resist them, they want to hurt each other. Who do you think will benefit from this?"

After the words fell, Aaron, who had been indignant at this moment, no longer showed disdain, but really thought about what Kevin said.

Sometimes, force does not necessarily have to be used for killing. It can also be used to make people with rigid ideas calm down and listen to you.

If Nami from the future Cocoyasi Village tried to reason with Aaron at this moment, she would be greeted with ridicule and a beating.

But after seeing Kevin's force in the square, both Arlong and Jinbei were able to calm down and listen to Kevin's words. This is also the necessity of force.

These words made the three fishmen in front of him fall into their own thoughts.

The power of Fishman Island includes Shirahoshi, who is only a little over one year old in Ryugu Castle, and Neptune's guards.

But in comparison, the group of fishmen who grew up wildly in Fishman Street, the backbone of the next two generations of Fishman Pirates, were all born here.

Of course, we are not talking about the Fish-Man Pirates of Cocoa Nishimura Arlong here, but the Fish-Man Pirates that first became famous in the New World with Felsher Tiger as captain and later with Jinbe as captain.

"First...sir."

Jinbei hesitated for a second before his eyes gradually became firm: "I think... I think all the oppressed... regardless of race, whether human or fish-man, should unite! Only by uniting can we have the power to resist."

Kevin laughed when he heard this.

This trip to Fishman Island was the most joyful moment to receive such a response. Even Little White Star was not as cute as the fathead fish in front of him at this moment.

"good."

Kevin stood up and pulled out a chair for him. "Sit down. What you just said is exactly what our revolutionary army has been doing. Unite all oppressed races and overthrow all those oppressors who step on our backs and suck our blood and marrow!"

The fathead killer whale fishman blushed a little, but was forced to sit down by Kevin.

"Tiger."

Kevin smiled and looked over: "Now do you know why I said those things in the square? Compared to the indoctrination of others, the ideas you understand yourself will be more firm."

At this time, Aaron, the only one standing, looked at Jinbei, who had been treating him unfairly, with disdain.

"Even if I'm 10,000 meters under the sea, I can see how huge the World Government is. Those so-called slave traders are definitely not the oppressors you mentioned, right, sir?"

Kevin looked over with a half-smile in his eyes: "So, you're going to give up your so-called hatred for your compatriots just because they're stronger? Even if your compatriots will continue to be captured and sold as slaves in the future?"

Aaron was stunned when he heard this.

He was unwilling to admit that he was weak, but he also knew clearly how powerful that group of people was.

The claim that fishmen are naturally ten times stronger than humans is nothing but self-deception.

The group of humans on the sea, the powerful ones are like a natural disaster. The admirals stationed in the Sabaody Archipelago can fire lasers that are as powerful as cannons.

Kevin ignored him and looked at Jinbei: "Would you like to come? Come and see the thoughts of the Revolutionary Army and the reality of this world. The choice is ultimately up to you."

Jinbei was really stunned at this moment.

The fathead fish's eyes widened, as if surprised that he was invited.

Although he resigned from the King's Army in order to travel with Boss Tiger, he never thought that so many unexpected things would happen in one day.

After the previous conversation, he already knew that the gentleman in front of him was a high-ranking member of the Revolutionary Army who had been offered a new bounty of 3.2 billion berries. Neither the World Government nor the Navy could do anything to him.

Such a powerful being is inviting him at this moment.

"Jinbei, it seems that you are really different. Even I took the initiative to request to join the Revolutionary Army."

Tiger looked at his younger brother with satisfaction. You know, it was he who personally taught Jinbe's Fishman Karate.

"Big Brother... Can I... Can I really?"

Jinbei felt a little uneasy. At this moment, he did not have the courage to attack BiGMOM in the future.

……

At this time, the door outside the private room of the Fishman Cafe was pushed open.

A burly human almost scared the mermaid girls, but soon a man with a smiling face and a mustache appeared from behind the burly human.

"Joz, I told you that you would scare these beautiful ladies."

"Are you saying I look scary, Vista?!"

"How come? But these mermaid ladies don't know how gentle you are, Jozi."

Vista explained, and at this moment, Izou used his outstanding appearance in comparison to strike up a conversation with the mermaid ladies.

After Vista showed up, the senior waiters at the Mermaid Cafe all recognized him and were relieved.

But there are really a lot of humans appearing on Fishman Island today... Boss Tiger just brought one in.

"I would like to ask, has a human been here before?"

Not in the same group? Wasn't that human from the Whitebeard Pirates?
The mermaid girl was stunned and subconsciously looked at the private room in the cafe.

Izang nodded in thanks, "Thank you."

Then he simply waved to his two companions, indicating that he had found the target.

This time, Vista walked ahead of Joz: "We should go in first, otherwise Joz's expression might make that person think we are here to fight."

Qiao Zi said dissatisfiedly: "I know what my father said. Although we are not afraid of the person who has a reward of 3.2 billion Baileys, there is no need to create a conflict."

Yi Zang, who was walking in front, held his forehead helplessly and said, "Let me negotiate. That person is not just representing himself, because of the revolutionary army, and this is the territory protected by my father, so he should want to ask the other party's purpose."

As they were talking, the three of them had already walked to the door of the single room.

However, just as Yi Zang was about to knock on the door, the sound inside aroused his interest, and he did not knock on the door.

A few seconds later, Joz behind him grinned: "What a terrible idea... Although I have always known about the conflict between the Revolutionary Army and the World Government, expressing it so clearly..."

Before he could finish his words, a voice came from the single room.

"You three should come in for a moment. If you leave like this, I might leave you here for the safety of Fishman Island."

A big shot worth 3.2 billion Baileys, the three knew that such a being must be proficient in domineering power.

The reason why I didn't knock on the door in time was that I was attracted by the conversation in the single room.

Now, besides feeling that the other party was a bit arrogant, there was also the embarrassment of being caught eavesdropping.

"Click."

The door of the private room was pushed open, and Izo, who was at the front, bowed and said, "I am so sorry, because I hesitated for a few seconds, I overheard your conversation."

Kevin looked at the man in front of him who was obviously wearing Wano country clothes.

As expected, he was the same as Kikunosuke. No, Kikunosuke was even more androgynous than his brother.

"The captain of the Whitebeard Pirates? If it's you guys, then there won't be any problem."

This statement was somewhat misunderstood, causing Vista to frown behind him: "Your Excellency seems a little arrogant, right? The Whitebeard Pirates are fine, so you mean to say that you can keep all of us?"

Kevin waved his hand: "Misunderstood. I just wanted to say that Fishman Island is Whitebeard's territory, so you will not explain what I just said to the World Government from the perspective of Fishman Island."

After hearing this, the tense atmosphere relaxed. Vista scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Sorry, I misunderstood."

Qiao Zi behind him pushed him away and said, "You still said I would cause misunderstanding?"

After the three people came in, the single room became a little small.

However, Tiger and Jinbe still stood up and greeted them. Although the two of them had not had much interaction with the Whitebeard Pirates, they all knew that it was the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates that protected Fishman Island.

In the slightly crowded room, Izo said, "Because we just arrived here when your Excellency exploded with Haki just now, and after noticing it, my father heard from King Neptune that your Excellency also came to Fishman Island, so he wanted to make an appointment with your Excellency."

Make an appointment...

Kevin mused.

Make an appointment to talk? Or have a fight?
In fact, Kevin didn't have much thought about Whitebeard Newgate, who is currently known as the strongest man in the world.

You know, Roger had mentioned everything about Raftel to him, but to this pirate who had always been obsessed with adopting a godson, many things seemed unimportant.

Family and hometown, these are the only two things, nothing else matters.

It was only at the moment of his death in the Battle of Marineford that his cry proving Roger's onepiece gave the final push to the tide of the times.

"I was almost planning to leave..."

Kevin looked at the clock on the wall. "At the moment I still have to wait for the manager of this store. If your captain has time before this is over, how about coming here?"

Izo nodded, and then said to Bista: "Go back and tell him. After the banquet hosted by King Neptune of Ryugu City, Dad probably doesn't like the environment there."

Bista was stunned for a moment, pointed at himself and asked, "Why me?"
