One Piece: The Glory of the Murloc

Brett woke up from hunger.

My stomach growled.

He yawned and sat up, finding that the light in the room was already dim.

"Let's go eat first——"

Brett paused.

Let’s go to Brother Jinbei to borrow money first.

He stood up and slowly walked out of the door. When he was about to close the door, he remembered that the door was placed in the corridor and leaned against the wall.

"Let's change the door again tomorrow."

Brett gave up the idea of ​​putting the door back together and turned back downstairs.

As soon as he walked out of the apartment and onto the dilapidated street, there was a shout from behind.

"Bright!!"

The familiar voice made Bright suddenly moved.

He looked back.

A blue shadow has already rushed towards me.

Brett was directly hugged tightly by the visitor.

"Great, Brett, I'm so glad you're safe!!"

The whaleman, who was shorter than Bright but much fatter, was very excited.

Brett also felt very excited. He raised his hands and gave this man a warm hug, "Long time no see, Brother Jinbei!"

The person who came was none other than the current captain of the Sun Pirates and the new king of the Shichibukai, Kaixia Jinbei.

Jinbe let go of Bright and looked at him carefully, "You've grown taller and stronger. It seems like your year has not been as difficult as I imagined."

"A lot of things happened by accident."

Bright smiled and said, "In short, it's a blessing in disguise. I still have to thank you, Brother Jinbei, otherwise, it won't be easy for me to regain my freedom."

"Hahaha, it's okay."

Jinbei raised his hand and patted Bright's shoulder.

Bright has been following them since he was very young. To Jinbe, Bright is like a younger brother.

"By the way, Brother Jinbei,"

Brett said seriously, "Can I trouble you with something?"

"Oh? If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Jinbei said boldly, "Your troubles are my troubles."

Brett rubbed his stomach, "Can you treat me to a meal? I'm very hungry."

Jinbei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly, "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go, I'll just treat you like this."

So, Bright followed Jinbe to the best restaurant in Fishman Street.

Although it is said to be the best restaurant, if you add the restriction of Fishman Street, you should know its strength.

Like most of the buildings in Fishman Street, this restaurant also looks quite old and dilapidated, but its business is very good, and it is almost full at this meal time.

"Oh! Boss Jinbei!"

"Brother Jinbei is here?"

Jinbei is very prestigious in Fishman Street. As soon as he enters the restaurant, many fishmen greet him.

There were also Brett's acquaintances who greeted him.

While responding to their acquaintances, Bright and Jinbe found a table in the corner and sat down.

"Oh! Bad boy Brett is back!"

The restaurant owner came over with a smile, "Is it still the same?"

"Of course! I've missed your craftsmanship for a long time, boss." Brett said with a smile.

The boss curled his lips and said, "Who are you kidding? Haven't you always said that the food I make tastes terrible?"

"That's why I just said I miss you." Brett blinked.

"You bastard brat! Still as annoying as when I was a kid!"

The boss turned around and left angrily.

"Boss, I want two copies."

Brett looked at his back and said.

The food portions I had as a child are no longer enough.

"Seriously, Brett, you boy,"

Jinbei's words were full of smiles, "You think the food here is unpalatable and you always eat here?"

“When I was little, I always came here to ask for leftovers from the boss.”

Brett said with some nostalgia, "Although it doesn't taste very good, it's hard not to like this taste."

Jinbe agreed, "In this case, there is indeed no food more delicious than that."

Soon, the food arrived.

Mermaids and most fishmen do not eat fish. The source of meat on Fishman Island is various shellfish.

In the deep sea that humans cannot reach, there are many giant shellfish, which can provide sufficient food supply for fish and mermaids.

Of course, there are also many mermaids who cannot even accept the meat of shellfish. Their staple food is various edible seaweeds.

Of course Brett likes meat.

Immediately he couldn’t wait to start feasting.

Still a familiar smell.

It's so nostalgic.

Brett devoured it.

Jinbe looked at Bright with a smile and said, "The Navy said that you were sent to a secret base?"

"Um."

Bright nodded and said vaguely, "It's a secret research base. I met Vegapunk there."

"Vegapunk?"

Jinbe exclaimed in shock, "The world's number one scientist?"

Bright nodded, "I got a Devil Fruit there, and also got some weird abilities with the help of Vegapunk."

Jinbei was shocked, "You said you ate a devil fruit? Then how did you come back?"

"So I got some weird abilities."

Brett said casually with his mouth full.

"..."

Jinbei was greatly shocked. It allowed the esper to overcome the sea water. This was not a strange ability.

Vegapunk, what an amazing man!

"No wonder you say it's a blessing in disguise." Jinbe sighed.

"By the way, Brother Jinbei,"

Brett wiped his mouth and lowered his voice, "On the way back, I killed the navy who escorted me."

"Eh?"

Jinbei's eyes widened and he crushed a corner of the table, and snot even flew out of his nostrils.

But immediately, he lowered his voice forcefully, "What's going on?"

Brett told him roughly what happened with Haggar.

Jinbei frowned the whole time.

"There are always guys like this among humans." He said disgustedly, "You are right, Brett. We don't need to hate innocent humans, but when we encounter a guy like this, we shouldn't show mercy!"

"What I'm worried about now is that if this matter is exposed, it will bring trouble to you and Fish-Man Island." Bright said.

It wouldn't be a big deal if he was just alone.

But he still has friends, a home, and a hometown.

Damn Hagg.

Disrupted his life plan.

"Since there are no survivors, it will not be easy for the Navy to know the truth."

Jinbe thought for a while and said, "In this case, I will contact the navy tomorrow and ask them why you haven't come back yet."

Bright's eyes lit up, "Brother Jinbei, you're saying that as long as I disappear together, it won't be my problem, right?"

Brother Jinbei looks very honest and honest, but he is actually quite smart.

"But Bright, in this case you may have to calm down a little bit in a short time." Jinbei said worriedly, "Stay quietly on Fish-Man Island and don't attract attention."

"That's exactly what I want."

Bright smiled and said, "Now I just want to stay quietly on Fish-Man Island."

"Really? It's really hard to imagine that such words came out of your mouth." Jinbei said in surprise, "At that time, you were crying and clamoring to go to sea with us."

"Because after going through hardships, you will naturally grow." Bright said while eating.

"That way it'll be fine."

Jinbei nodded, "At least stay quiet for a while and avoid the limelight. Don't worry, Brett, I won't let anything happen to you."

"Just in time, how about taking advantage of this time, Brett, to learn domineering?"

Brett raised his head in surprise.

He was about to make this request.

"Killing a rear admiral easily, you really have gained amazing abilities."

Jinbei smiled and said, "If it were you, it should be very simple to surpass me."

"OK."

Brett nodded happily.

He has long realized that only by being strong can he survive in this world.

"very good!"

Jinbei nodded happily.

If it were Bright now, he might really have the same power as the Pirate Emperor.

if that is the case--

"Boss, two more!"

Brett shouted.

"Eh? Have you finished eating already?"

Jinbei was shocked, "Is your kid so good at eating now?"

Brett smiled and said, "Because I'm growing."

Many abilities have formed many organs that are growing, and Bright does need a lot of nutrients and energy.

Furthermore, Didom's giant lanternfish gave Bright the ability to increase his strength and endurance.

But this kind of enhancement is not a direct improvement. Even in the long history, there should be no creature with stronger strength and talent than Bright, who has both Megalodon and Kaido bloodlines at this time.

This ancient lantern fish has the ability to store energy, just like a camel.

However, unlike camels, Didom lanternfish has the ability to burst out stored energy and turn energy into strength or physical strength.

Brett eats more to recharge his batteries to a certain extent.

Although it's still better than nothing now, abilities become stronger through exercise.

"By the way, Brett, there's something I need your help with."

Jinbei remembered something and his expression became a little serious.

"oh?"

…

After having dinner with Jinbei and borrowing 100,000 beli from Jinbei for temporary expenses, Bright said goodbye to Jinbei.

But he did not return to his home.

He went to another place on Fishman Street, which was a three-story building. At this time, there was light shining through the windows, and he could clearly hear the noise coming from inside.

Brett sighed.

Brother Jinbei really gave himself a troublesome job.

But I had to come.

Just think of it, to avoid a tragedy.

Brett stretched out his hand to open the door.

But the door was opened first.

A man came out.

Wearing the uniform of a Dragon Palace Kingdom guard, he has a big belly, sharp teeth, a sharp nose, and curly black hair.

Brett called out the man's name in disgust, "Hody."

The fish-man named Hody also saw Bright. He was stunned for a moment, and then said with the same disgust, "He's not dead yet? He's a hybrid!"
