Shampoo is in fifth gear, and Kizaru is numb

"However, Mr. Luffy is really strong now. He can actually take Mr. Garp's attack head-on."

Coby stood next to Garp and said with admiration in his eyes.

He is Luffy's number one fan. Seeing Luffy's strength is so strong, he is sincerely happy for him.

"After all, he is the Five Emperors with a bounty of 5.1 billion. Even Admiral Sakaski was defeated by him."

Hilumepo swallowed his saliva and said.

As the son of Axe Emperor Moka, he was ready to challenge the Straw Hat Pirates after he became strong.

But after the Battle of Marineford, he no longer had this idea.

When Luffy swung his fist from the sky and punched a hole with a diameter of hundreds of meters in Marineford, he knew that he would never see the back of that person again in his life.

"If it was Coby, then it was possible."

Hilumebo glanced at Coby beside him.

After training together for so long, he also knew one thing: Coby's talent was much higher than his.

"Instead of thinking so much, why not practice more now? When will you two little brats grow up?"

Just as Garp was about to return to the cabin with his nose pinched, his eyes suddenly focused.

At the port of Shampoodi, on the trunk of a huge Yarchiman mangrove, sat a man with silver hair and a small silver wine pot.

Coby and Hilumbo on the side followed Garp's gaze and their expressions changed instantly.

"That's Pluto Rayleigh."

Coby exclaimed, and his whole body instantly entered a state of alert.

"Why are you so nervous? That guy won't take the initiative to attack us."

Kapu looked at Rayleigh in the distance and raised the wine jug in his hand high towards him, as a greeting, and just curled his lips and said

"Don't worry about him, pack up your things, this mission is completed, tell the headquarters that the Straw Hat Pirates have escaped from Shampoo Land, and return home."

Garp said with his nose pinched.

Then he turned around and prepared to return to the cabin.

"Mr. Garp, don't we need to arrest Pluto Rayleigh?"

Hilumbo asked doubtfully.

"How to arrest him."

Garp looked at him helplessly:"An old man who has no power and has retired. It is time-consuming and laborious to catch him, and there is no benefit."

After all, he is a legendary pirate. Don't make it like catching a mouse.

Think about it, which legendary pirate was not caught by him and Sengoku together.

One on one, it is too easy for the opponent to run away.

Deep sea.

On the Sunny.

Because the first time has been here once, the second time is also familiar.

When the Sunny stopped at the port of Fishman Island.

At this time, there was already a group of people waiting here at the port. When Luffy and others appeared on the Sunny, they immediately greeted them in a large number.

"Is this Master Luffy? The king invites you to a banquet at the Dragon Palace.

A blue-haired mermaid, holding a golden trident, came forward and said respectfully:

"What is this?"

Luffy looked at the person in front of him and asked Xiao Badao curiously.

"This is the eldest prince of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, Lord Shark Star."

Xiao Ba explained,"Lord Shark Star came to invite you. He must be the king of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, His Majesty Neptune, who wants to discuss something with you."

"King?"

Chopper was a little surprised behind him.

"Don't worry, everyone. His Majesty Neptune is a very good person, and he has a good relationship with Whitebeard."

Hachi said with a smile.

Hachi was once a member of the Sun Pirates, and was not in the same system as the Ryugu Kingdom.

The entire Ryugu Kingdom is divided into two major forces.

One is the Ryugu Kingdom in the open, and the other is the Sun Pirates created by Brother Fisher Tiger, and some fishmen from Fishman Street.

However, since Brother Tiger, the relationship between them has been very good.

Together they maintain the peace of Fishman Island.

"That white-bearded uncle?"

Luffy pressed his hat, and the image of Whitebeard laughing heroically flashed through his mind.

"Since Xiao Ba said so, let's go to the banquet."

Luffy said with a smile.

A friend of a partner is also a friend. Luffy's character has always been like this.

The welcoming team headed towards the Dragon Palace.

Some pirates who were also at the port showed surprised expressions.

"Who is that big shot? As a pirate, he actually got invited by the Dragon Palace."

A pirate asked.

He remembered that the last time they were treated like this was two or three days ago by the Whitebeard Pirates and the Red Hair Pirates.

Those two were the Four Emperors, the top pirate groups.

"Don't you know?"

A pirate next to him quickly explained:"This is the Straw Hat Pirates, known as the King of Pirates who surpassed the Four Emperors Pirates."

"The guy wearing a straw hat is Captain Straw Hat. He defeated Admiral Akainu head-on in the Battle of Marineford, caused chaos in the Marine Headquarters, and saved Ace the Fire Fist."

"Stop talking about it, he's a pirate with a bounty of 5.1 billion."

A pirate broke out in a cold sweat and quickly distanced himself from the pirates who were discussing with him.

"This feeling is a bit annoying, like a monkey being watched by others."

Zoro frowned and looked at the pirates around him.

His sharp five senses allowed him to easily hear the discussions of the people around him.

How should I put it? It was a bit awkward.

This feeling of treating them as important people and being cautious.

"Haha, isn't that good? Zoro, just ignore it."

Luffy didn't care, holding his head and walking in front.

""Oh, Hachi, where's Jinbe?"

Luffy suddenly remembered and asked.

Jinbe didn't leave with Ace and the others. Instead, he stayed on Shampoo Land for a day, and then hurried back to Fishman Island. Luffy and his group still had a good impression of this chivalrous fishman boss.

When they were looking for Whitebeard, Jinbe stayed on a ship with them for about two days and had a good chat.

Later, in the Battle of Marineford, Jinbe also risked his life to protect him.

"New, I don't know, but Boss Jinbei seems to be very busy these days."

Hachi said.

He didn't know much either.

Since joining Arlong, he has lost contact with the Sun Pirates here.

Later, when Arlong was defeated, Hachi didn't want to be a pirate anymore, but switched to making takoyaki.

Now he is no longer a pirate, but an ordinary takoyaki shop owner, and he doesn't know much about Jinbei's affairs.

"I see."

Luffy didn't say anything else, but looked around at the scenery of Fishman Island.

Not long after, he and Chopper Usopp left the team and went around to buy some snacks from Fishman Island.

"Is this Fishman Island? These bubble tools are very similar to those in the Sabaody Archipelago."

Zoro held a bottle in his hand and looked at the scene of Fishman Island with interest.

Sanji, who was standing by, had already left the team and was frantically chatting up the beautiful mermaid on the street.

"These guys are so embarrassing."Nami covered her forehead and sighed.

Although they were wandering around, fortunately no one left the team completely.

Under the leadership of Shark Star, Luffy and his team soon arrived in front of a luxurious building.

"So beautiful."

Nami and Robin couldn't help but say

"Is this the Dragon King's Palace? It's really luxurious."Zoro looked up at the Dragon King's Palace in front of him, and his eyebrows slightly raised.

"What a great place!"

Luffy laughed loudly, with a look of amazement on his face.

The Ryugu Castle in front of him was located on the top of Fishman Island.

This was the place closest to the sunlight transmitted by the Sun Tree Eve, and it looked no different from the sunlight on the ground.

Under the warm sunlight, the magnificent architecture of the Ryugu Castle was revealed. The whole building was made of large corals, shells, and some other building materials, and it really looked like a super-large, exquisite handicraft.

"Brother Luffy."

Walking into Ryugu Castle, a chubby figure in the distance shouted

"Jinbei." (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Luffy greeted with a smile.

"Let's go, the banquet prepared by His Majesty Neptune is about to begin."

Jinbei brought Luffy into the interior of Ryugu Castle.

Neptune sat high on the throne and asked Luffy to sit next to him.

That was a special place for entertaining big figures who could sit on an equal footing with Neptune, such as Whitebeard, Red Hair, and Roger.

But Luffy smiled and waved his hand to refuse.

"That seat is too high. I'd rather stay here."

""It's very much like your style, Luffy." Jinbei said with a smile.

The banquet started, and the supplies of Fishman Island were still abundant.

Various meats, fine wines, and beautiful mermaids.

Luffy and his friends had a lot of fun.

After eating and drinking,

Neptune also walked up to Luffy and his friends.

"Straw Hat Boy, I want to ask for your help."

Neptune said in a low voice

"Father"

""Your Majesty."

The faces of Shark Star and other ministers of Dragon Palace City changed, and they wanted to speak up to stop them.

After all, as a king, it was somewhat embarrassing for Neptune to ask for help from the Straw Hat Boy.

However, Neptune just waved his hand to stop them.

"Why are you so serious?"

Luffy put his hands on the back of his head, grinned and said:"Uncle Mermaid, you are friends with Uncle Whitebeard, and you are friends with Jinbei, so you are our friend, right?"

"If you need any help, just ask."

Neptune looked at Luffy with a big smile in front of him and was stunned for a moment.

He could feel Luffy's sincerity.

"You are really different, Straw Hat Boy."

Neptune has seen many pirates and big shots passing by on Fishman Island.

But Luffy is different from the others, different from Whitebeard's boldness and domineering, and Red Hair Shanks's free and easy domineering.

The straw hat boy in front of him shows a kind of sincerity and purity like a child.

Such people always make people feel good in just a few words.

"Then I won’t beat around the bush."

Neptune said,"I want to use your flag to protect Fishman Island."

Neptune put aside his pride, and his low and earnest words echoed in the Ryugu Castle.

Shark Star tightly clenched the golden trident in his hand, turned his face away unwillingly, and the other Ryugu ministers also showed ugly expressions.

They were not targeting Luffy.

But they felt that it was a bit ugly for their country to rely on the protection of others.

However, they had to do so, just like the Whitebeard Pirates left their flag here to protect Fishman Island.

As the only way for pirates to go to the New World, the impact that Fishman Island has to face is too great.

The atmosphere became silent in an instant.

Neptune lowered his head slightly, and Jinbei looked at Luffy with a serious face.

Zoro and Sanji behind him noticed this tense atmosphere, and they also looked at their captain, waiting for him to make a decision.

Luffy touched his chin, tilted his head with a solemn face, as if he was thinking about this problem seriously.

Then his head tilted a little bit, the amplitude became larger and larger, and the confusion on his face became more and more.

When his head was about to tilt to the bottom, he asked with some doubts

"Borrowing a flag? Protecting a country, what does that mean?"

Boom.

A group of people fell to the ground.

"You bastard, I don't know why you pretended to think for so long."

Nami punched Luffy on the head.

Jinbei stood up and explained to Luffy speechlessly

"The so-called"borrowing a flag" means planting your pirate flag in the most conspicuous place on this island. That means telling all the pirates who arrive at this island that this Fishman Island is the territory of your Straw Hat Pirates."

"If someone messes up on this island, they are the enemy of the Straw Hat Pirates. This is what it means to borrow the flag and protect the island."

"Because the New World attaches great importance to territory, the Four Emperors���The new world fights for territory, and every territory that belongs to them will be planted with their own flag."

"I see, I see."

Luffy nodded repeatedly.

""Do you see that flag?"

Jinbei pointed to the conspicuous huge pirate flag that was hanging high above Fishman Island. It had a cross-shaped skull and a conspicuous crescent-shaped beard.

"That's Uncle Whitebeard's pirate flag.

Luffy is not unfamiliar with this flag. After all, he has been on the Moby Dick for so long.

"Yes, it was my dad who protected our Fishman Island during the Great Pirate Era."

"But, since they already have the pirate flag of the Four Emperors Whitebeard, why do they still need to ask Luffy?"

Sanji asked with some doubt.

Even though there were newspapers reporting about them everywhere, they were far behind Whitebeard in terms of fame.

Whitebeard's reputation had been passed down since Roger's time.

"You all know that my father passed away."

Jinbei said in a low voice:"The truth cannot be hidden."

"One day after Daddy's death, the news spread among the underground forces in the New World. Kaido has begun to attack Daddy's territory, and Ace and his men are resisting."

"As for Fishman Island, it is actually quite far from Daddy's territory, but in the past, no one dared to mess around because of Daddy's reputation. After Daddy's death, this place has also been targeted."

"Who? You find it so difficult, Jinbei."

Zoro asked.

He knew Jinbei's strength. Although he was not as strong as them, he was very strong.

""Four Emperors BIGMOM."

Jinbei clenched his fists tightly.

If it was any other pirate, he would not take it seriously, but he was one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Apart from the Four Emperors, his strength was already first-rate among pirates.

However, the other party was a Four Emperor of the same status as his father.

Any of the Four Emperors' pirate groups was not something that Fishman Island could contend with.

As for the reason why BIGMOM targeted Fishman Island, it was also very simple, because of the snacks made by the Ryugu Kingdom.

""The Four Emperors."

Nami's face was solemn.

The Four Emperors were the pirates standing on top of the sea.

"We met so soon? Interesting."

Zoro said with a smile, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

"I know this request is a bit rude, sorry, I am abrupt."

Neptune whispered.

Choosing to protect them, the Straw Hat Pirates would be equivalent to facing a Four Emperors Pirate Group head-on.

This is no joke.

And there is really no friendship between him and the Straw Hat Boy, not like the Whitebeard back then.

"What are you talking about, Uncle Mermaid?"

Luffy looked at Neptune in front of him with some doubts, and said,"Aren't you a friend of Uncle Whitebeard? And this is Jinbei's hometown, of course we will help you."

"And you treated us to such a great meal."

"You, Straw Hat Boy, do you know what it means to protect Fishman Island?" Neptune said in a daze:"That means you have to be an enemy of the Four Emperors BIGMOM!"

"So?"

Luffy tilted his head in confusion.

"That's the Four Emperors."Neptune was a little tired.

"I know, but so what."
