Hody Jones Defeated (3)
"Princess Shirahoshi, don't cry, we're here to help you." Just as Princess Shirahoshi was shedding tears, a voice suddenly entered her mind.
Princess Shirahoshi was taken aback upon hearing this. She looked around but couldn't find the speaker. However, she did see many Sea Kings, as many as seven.
They were now above Noah, each with a chain in its mouth. These chains were from above Noah. After they took hold, Noah stopped falling.
This demonstrates the immense strength of these Sea Kings. Noah could crash into Fish- Fish-Man Island and completely destroy it. Yet, a few Sea Kings could stop Noah's descent—it's truly unbelievable.
"Who, who is it?" Princess Shirahoshi asked.
"It is us, Princess Shirahoshi, we are the Sea Kings." The mysterious voice rang out once more.
Princess Shirahoshi looked at the Sea Kings in disbelief upon hearing this. She had already seen them before, but she no longer believed they were them.
Now she was certain; it was the Sea Kings speaking to her.
"Why are you helping me?" Princess Shirahoshi asked, puzzled.
"Heh heh, because we are your power! You are our king, it was destined from the day you were born, you are the king of us Sea Kings." A Sea Kings with a lion's head said, "If you want to attack someone, just summon us, and we will appear. We will become your power, helping you defeat your opponents."
"Yes, you don't need to lift a finger, we'll take care of it," said a giant toad.
"You are my power? How is this possible!" Princess Shirahoshi was very confused and couldn't understand why she had become the king of the Sea Kings in such a muddled way. It was simply unbelievable.
"We don't know the specifics, but we do know that you are our king, and you possess a mysterious power within you that summons us," the giant toad said. "Every so often, our king appears in the form of a mermaid. From the day you were born, you were destined to be our king. You can command the Sea Kings and make them serve you."
"Ah, this is incredible," Princess Shirahoshi exclaimed.
Sea Kings are terrifying creatures, and everyone avoids them like the plague. Yet, she can command them, which is truly baffling.
"That's right, alright, let those two stop! Noah can't be destroyed yet, it still has a great use." The giant toad said, "This ship was built for us to pull, its mission is not yet complete."
"No wonder Noah is so big, so that's why," Princess Shirahoshi immediately said.
Noah was so large that there was almost no power to move the ship. Vander Decken was able to propel it by trickery; it would have been impossible under normal circumstances.
However, if Sea Kings were to pull it, there would be no problem. Because Sea Kings are enormous and incredibly strong. If they were to pull Noah, it would be highly unlikely that Noah would remain still.
"Yes, hurry! Those two men are incredibly powerful. If we let them continue like this, Noah will be destroyed," said the lion-headed Sea Kings.
Upon hearing this, Princess Shirahoshi immediately nodded, and then without further hesitation, she headed straight for Noah's Ark.
Once inside, she first called out to Straw Hat Luffy. After Straw Hat Luffy understood the situation and gave up the attack, she went downstairs to find Fanxin.
Upon reaching a distance from Fanxin, Princess Shirahoshi cried out, "Stop! Don't attack!"
"What nonsense are you spouting? Didn't you see Noah was about to hit Fish-Man Island? Do you want Fish-Man Island to be Destruction?" Fanxin shouted.
"Noah will not descend any further; it has been stopped by the Sea Kings," Princess Shirahoshi explained.
Fanxin was below Noah, his view blocked, and he couldn't see what was happening above. Therefore, Fanxin was unaware that Noah had been stopped by the Sea Kings.
"What did you say? The Sea Kings made a move against Noah? Are you kidding me? How could the Sea Kings possibly stop Noah?" Fanxin was even more puzzled; he felt that Princess Shirahoshi was joking with him.
"I'm not lying to you, it's true. If you don't believe me, you can come and see for yourself," Princess Shirahoshi said immediately.
"Is that so?" Fanxin hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, then swam towards Princess Shirahoshi, ready to see for himself.
When he reached Princess Shirahoshi's side, he could see the situation above clearly, and what he saw startled him. He saw that it was indeed the Sea Kings who had prevented Noah from descending.
The Sea Kings bit into the large iron chains attached to Noah, preventing Noah from descending.
"Stop! Everyone, come here!" Fanxin ordered the Dragon-Slaying Sword and the Diamond Beast.
A moment later, the Diamond Beast returned to his side and went back into his body. The Dragon-Slaying Sword returned to its original state and he held it in his hand.
After finishing, Fanxin looked at the Sea Kings and examined it carefully for a while.
"Hey, why are Sea Kings appearing? Do you know why?" Fanxin asked Princess Shirahoshi curiously.
"I don't know either. I was crying and then the Sea Kings appeared. They said they came to help me, and that I was their king. I don't understand why," Princess Shirahoshi said, shaking her head in confusion.
"You are the king of the Sea Kings, the king of the Sea Kings, the sea... king." Upon hearing this, Fanxin carefully repeated it a few times. After a moment, he trembled, as if he had guessed something.
He has been searching for the Ancient Weapon, which consist of three: Uranus, Poseidon, and Pluton.
Although he knew the names of these three things, Fanxin still didn't quite understand what they looked like.
However, he now seems to have figured out what the Poseidon is. Princess Shirahoshi is the Queen of the Sea Kings, who can command all the Sea Kings to fight for her.
She possesses terrifying power. If she were to summon all the Sea Kings to target a particular faction, that faction would inevitably collapse, because the Sea Kings' attack power is astonishing.
"No wonder Vander Decken and Hody Jones both wanted her, so that explains it." Fanxin looked at Princess Shirahoshi and muttered to himself, "Although I don't know if Princess Shirahoshi is the real Poseidon, the fact that these Sea Kings obey her makes it highly likely that she is."
The Sea Kings were unruly and no one could tame them. Yet these few Sea Kings were so obedient and did not attack Princess Shirahoshi, which was enough to show the status Princess Shirahoshi held in their hearts.
"It seems I'll have to keep a closer eye on Princess Shirahoshi from now on. Even if I leave Fish-Man Island, I'll need to protect her. Otherwise, if someone with ulterior motives finds out, it could cause serious trouble," Fanxin muttered to himself.
The World Government and other major powers are all searching for the Ancient Weapon; whoever possesses them will be able to dominate the world.
The reason they haven't come to capture Princess Shirahoshi yet is simply because they don't know Princess Shirahoshi true identity. If they did, they would surely go mad for her.
They would even fight each other and cause a huge commotion over Princess Shirahoshi.
"I'm going to the New World, so I can't fight here anymore. But I can't leave without any protection either, otherwise, if Princess Shirahoshi is taken away by someone else, it will be a real problem." Fanxin pondered for a long time, and the two cats came up with a plan.
"That sea serpent must have successfully evolved into a dragon; now it's time to use it," Fanxin said. "While I'm gone, let that sea serpent protect the princess! Her body is too large to carry around easily. I'll come back for her when her body transforms into a human!"
When a mermaid turns thirty, her tail transforms into legs, and she becomes a human. Of course, she can still transform into a mermaid if she wishes.
King Neptune was also a mermaid. The reason he retained his mermaid form was not because his tail could not transform into legs, but because he was a king. He had to preserve his mermaid appearance; it was a symbol of royalty.
However, Princess Shirahoshi's mother Queen Otohime, transformed her tail into two legs, enabling her to walk on two legs like a human.
Princess Shirahoshi is not yet thirty years old. Therefore, she can only exist in the form of a mermaid for now.
The Little Mermaid's body is now too large for him to take with him. Every time he releases her, it attracts a large crowd. If the Four Emperors find out, he'll be in big trouble. Although he's not afraid of the Four Emperors, he's still quite annoyed by being chased by their forces.
Therefore, he has now decided to temporarily leave Princess Shirahoshi on Fish-Man Island. It is her homeland, she is under the protection of royalty, and very few people know about her.
So, she's safe here now. He doesn't need to worry about anything.
Furthermore, he will take precautions, which will make Princess Shirahoshi even safer.
"Hehe, the problem is solved now. Next, we need to get the sea serpent and Princess Shirahoshi familiar with each other. As long as the princess doesn't dislike the sea serpent, the sea serpent can stay by her side, watch her grow up, and protect her safety." Fanxin nodded slightly, and that was the decision.
After finishing the task, Fanxin stopped wasting time and immediately took Princess Shirahoshi towards the Sea Kings.
"Hey, you think you can just take Noah like that? Noah's mine! If you want it, you'll have to give me some treasures first," Fanxin said bluntly to the Sea Kings.
He could walk and swim in the sea, so he wasn't afraid of Sea Kings. It would be extremely difficult for Sea Kings to kill him. Therefore, he bargained with the Sea Kings.
Several Sea Kings looked at Fanxin but didn't say a word.
Fanxin paused for a moment, looked at Princess Shirahoshi, and said, "Translate this for me. Tell them to give me some benefits, or I will destroy Noah."
Now that the crisis has passed, he's no longer afraid to waste time with these Sea Kings. He has plenty of time.
"They said if you dare ask them for anything, they'll kill you." Upon hearing this, Princess Shirahoshi Baixing immediately translated for Fanxin. After translating, she listened quietly for a while, then looked at Fanxin and said.
"What? Kill me? Wow, that's fierce! So Haki!" Fanxin said, annoyed. "Tell him again that if he doesn't give me the treasure, I'll never let this go."
Sea Kings spend most of their time on the seabed, so they must know a lot about treasures. Furthermore, they can communicate with Princess Shirahoshi, so asking them for treasures is a relatively safe bet.
Princess Shirahoshi paused for a moment, then continued translating.
"They told you to be careful, or they'll eat you up," Princess Shirahoshi translated.
"You're really too arrogant, just you wait!" Fanxin was annoyed and charged towards the Sea Kings, wanting to teach them a lesson.
However, those Sea Kings weren't fools; when they saw Fanxin approaching, they knew things were going to turn out badly.
The giant toad immediately kicked out, aiming a kick at Fanxin's chest. The Sea Kings was incredibly fast, reaching Fanxin in the blink of an eye. The toad's foot struck Fanxin, sending him flying a considerable distance.
The giant toad hadn't stopped; it loosened its chains and continued its pursuit of Fanxin, seemingly determined to teach Fanxin a lesson.
Fanxin Xin wanted to retaliate, but the toad was simply too strong and incredibly powerful. It kicked Fanxin away again.
Then, from a great Fanxin, it launched another attack. It slapped at Fan Xin from Fanxin, pushing the seawater towards Fanxin and blasting Fanxin away once again.
Now, Fanxin is very, very far away from Noah, and can no longer see Noah's shadow.
The giant toad glanced at Fanxin, then immediately left and went far away.
Fanxin watched the toad leave, feeling extremely frustrated. Although these creatures were large, they were anything but clumsy. The toad's series of attacks were as fluid as flowing water, leaving him completely defenseless.
"Damn it, luckily I'm physically strong, otherwise, if that big guy had hit me a few times, my bones would have been broken." Fanxin was furious.
He had originally wanted to retrieve something, but now, the Sea Kings had long since disappeared with Noah. Even if he chased after them now, he probably wouldn't find anything.
"Forget it, if you can't have it, you can't force it. Now that the crisis on Fish-Man Island has been resolved, that's a good thing." Fanxin Xin immediately headed towards where Princess Shirahoshi was.
Upon reaching the princess, Fanxin saw that the Straw Hat Boy was now in her hand. He was bleeding profusely, and the bleeding hadn't stopped, indicating he was seriously injured.
"Let's go back to Fish-Man Island. He's bleeding profusely and needs medical attention," Fanxin shouted.
Humans are nourished by blood. If there is excessive blood loss, the body will inevitably become unwell, and various illnesses will appear.
