The Great Voyage Beginning with the Celestial Dragons

"Alas..."

Luther sighed softly.

Fishman Island is an important partner in his future strategy.

In order for this partner to grow up as soon as possible, it seems that he has to let Otohime know something, those cruel unspoken rules about the human world.

"Princess Otohime, if you just want to move Fishman Island to the mainland, there is a gathering place for Fishman in the sea. Quite simply, all you need to do is find a random uninhabited island and move your people there. But..."

Luther's voice turned, which also made Otohime's heart tug.

Obviously, Luther did not speak, but she didn't know why, but she seemed to see the picture of her own people dying and displaced from the other party.

"But what?"

Otohime couldn't help but ask, she could feel that Luther was saying something very important, and she couldn't help but get serious.

"However, when it comes to the second thing you said, if people know that Fishman Island is not at the bottom of 10,000 meters but on the surface of the sea, pirates and human traffickers will go crazy because of this, just to catch mermaids and fishmen to sell."

"Is there no way to stop this? I believe that pirates can also sit down and talk, and most of the pirates who pass by Fishman Island will not do anything out of character. Otohime said.

Luther smiled and said, "You think it's good to sit down and talk, but it's not because those pirates are kind enough." Instead, two flags hang on Fishman Island, one representing the world government and the other representing Whitebeard. "

"However, even if we move to land, we can still hang two flags." Princess Otohime hesitated.

"Yes, but the danger at sea is not only under the sea."

Luther nodded calmly and continued:

"The pirates who will pass through Fishman Island are basically pirates with their hearts to the new world, and most of them are not interested in slaves, let alone offend Whitebeard and the world government for this little thing. And most of the people who will go to catch fishmen on Fishman Island will also be driven away by your own guards. "

"What is the danger on the sea, are the pirates and those human traffickers too?" Otohime hesitated.

She couldn't help but think of the Tiger she had seen a few days ago, the kind of black to the extreme negative emotions, it is impossible to just see the enslaved compatriots, most likely Tiger himself has been enslaved.

Tiger is already the strongest existence among the fishmen and mermaids except for Neptune , even Tiger will be enslaved when he goes to sea, and they may indeed not be able to hold it.

She also knew about Tiger's freeing of slaves in the Holy Land, which was why she wanted to come to the Chambord Islands to do her part.

In fact, she now wants to liberate her fellow citizens who are still suffering than to migrate to land.

Even sitting in the tea room, she could feel the dead silence of the slaves not far away, and she really wanted to do something.

"Including the pirates and human traffickers you mentioned, but because of the rarity of mermaids and fishmen, you are more likely to face the war of other allied countries!" Luther said flatly.

"War?!"

Otohime exclaimed.

The word was so far away from Fishman Island that she even knew only the cruelty of war, but did not have a clear picture recognition.

"But... Are they all allies of the world government, can they wage war against each other? Otohime hesitated.

"It seems that you have not studied exactly the regulations of the countries that are allied by the World Government."

Luther smiled and repeated the oath of the allied countries:

"By the sacred and inviolable 20 kings, my nation today becomes a member of the world alliance, voluntarily provides heavenly gold annually for the development of the world government, obeys the laws and codes of the world government, and does not make enemies of the world government and its departments..."

"Hmm... It seems that there really is no regulation that cannot be attacked between the allied countries. Princess Otohime looked confused.

It is not stated that it cannot be attacked, listening to Luther's meaning, war between the allied countries is still the norm.

Especially because of the special nature of their race, they may also become the enemy of everyone.

Fishman Island is not afraid of war, but she is as kind as she is, but she does not want to drag Fishman Island into war because of her own ideas.

"If this doesn't work, then what about freeing the slaves."

Otohime almost gave up on the land migration and talked about another thing instead.

In her heart, liberating her compatriots is also even more important.

"Emancipation of slaves..."

Luther's flat eyes fell on Otohime, and then gave Robin a look.

Robin poured tea for the two again, and said unhurriedly:

Today, islands 1-3 in the Chambord Islands have become the world's largest and only slave trading place. Just talking about fish people and mermaids, the annual transaction volume is about 3 billion Bailey, the average price of the fish people is 1 million, and the average price of the merfolk is 50 million. "

"3 billion!"

Otohime was slightly shocked in her heart, she didn't know that she and her compatriots were worth so much.

Even if it was as simple as her, she could understand the subtext of Luther and Robin.

If she wants to liberate her compatriots, she can buy all the fish people and mermaid slaves directly in a very simple way.

Since the Chambord Islands are the largest and only trading place, buying the fish and mermaids here is equivalent to buying everything.

Immediately, she calculated in her heart, but in the end, there was bitterness under her eyes.

3 billion Bailey, it doesn't sound like a lot of numbers, but it's what needs to be paid every year.

Coupled with the heavenly gold that needs to be paid every year, it is enough to crush the finances of Fishman Island.

"We can pay half of that..."

Otohime's words paled in comparison, and Robin could hear her despair.

At this time, Otohime, looking at Luther's gaze, even brought a little pleading.

Her mind was not stupid, just a few words of communication, and she already understood that the owner of this largest trading place was Luther in front of her.

So in order to liberate our fellow citizens who are suffering, we also need to start with Luther.

"I can return all the mermaids and fishmen to Fishman Island, and strictly prohibit the sale of mermaids and fishmen. I can even give you an island and plant the Don Quixote flag. Luther said calmly.

"Really? So what do we need to give? "

Otohime hurriedly added that she would no longer speak simple and kind words.

Through her communication with Luther, she understood that the other party was particular about equivalent exchange.

How much you give, how much you get.

Although it is a little unkind, it is fair, and Otohime can accept it.

She didn't think much about the migration that Luther said later, and Otohime just thought about liberating her compatriots first.

"Quite simply, you need to send a group of people to work for me, and the job is to be watched or do some work, and you get paid a lot every month." Luther smiled.

"It's that simple?"

Otohime was a little dumbfounded and couldn't imagine that this was simply not a requirement compared to saving his compatriots.

"Of course, a simple request, but it may take tens of thousands of your people to work for me every year. This job is not mandatory, but it cannot be withdrawn for at least one year after acceptance, otherwise the financial loss caused by it shall be borne by the individual. Luther said.

"No need to bear it personally, the Dragon Palace Kingdom can bear it!" Otohime hurriedly said.

"That's an internal matter for you." Luther shrugged.

"Can you talk about what exactly to do?" Otohime asked.

"Divided into several parts, one of which is driven or appreciated by those who replace the slaves, these people will have the highest income, a number beyond the imagination of ordinary mermaids or fishmen. The other part is fishing, including sea kings and common fish, which is a job that you can do, and the salary is average, but I don't think you will refuse. As for the last part, I need an elite squad of fish people and mermaids, which is a kind of maritime security job, and I think you will not refuse. Luther said.

Of the three parts he said, the most important for him were the last two.

In comparison, the first human leasing industry, which seems to make the most money, is an addition.

Scarce is expensive, and when mermaids and fish people appear in large numbers, no one will spend a lot of money to pursue them.

It can be imagined that after the migration of Fishman Island to the mainland, mermaids and fishmen appear frequently, and fishmen and mermaids will also fall to the villains and long-legged people with similar prices.

On the contrary, the fishing industry and security services have a broader future prospect.

After all, this world is the world of the sea, and in the world of the sea, the ability of mermaids and fish people to swim freely in the sea is definitely an incomparably valuable talent.

"You can think about it, don't rush to give me an answer."

Luther smiled slightly, sat down on the tea seat, and waited for Otohime's contemplation to end.

Otohime and Fishman Island have too many needs, as long as these needs are not difficult for him, Fishman Island will be labeled Don Quixote sooner or later.
