Ambush

Was the alarm a false alarm?

King Neptune looked into the distance, puzzled. Just like before, this was another warning sound of an invasion.

But Ace was already here.

So who is invading Dragon Palace City?

Just as King Neptune was thinking this, a figure came running up from not far away, panting, and said, "Human pirates have landed in front of the tower where Princess Shirahoshi is, and they have attacked the surrounding guards. The Right Minister has led his men to stop them."

"Human pirates? How did they get in?"

King Neptune looked puzzled, and the Fish-Man said, "It flew in."

"Flew in?"

Neptune frowned. How could someone have flown in, and landed right in front of Princess Shirahoshi's tower?

Shirahoshi?

Could it be Vander Decken?

Neptune immediately said, "Hody Jones, take a group of men and go provide support."

"Yes."

The Third Prince Prince Fanche, immediately led a group of people away.

Upon seeing this, World Government officials frowned.

But at that moment, another figure ran over and shouted, "Your Majesty, there are attackers on the right as well!"

How could that be?

King Neptune was confused; why were there still people around?

The World Government official could no longer hold back and said, "King Neptune, you're in cahoots with them, aren't you? There's a traitor among the people you sent, and now you've transferred them away. Are you deliberately letting Ace leave?"

They definitely conspired together.

Neptune frowned, but it hadn't gotten to that point yet.

"How could I possibly do that?"

Neptune said coldly, and the World Government official shrank back, not daring to continue.

But at this moment, countless black dots had already appeared in the distance.

"What is that?"

King Neptune looked into the distance, where the black dots slowly grew larger, revealing themselves to be enormous sea beasts. As they drew closer, a voice rang out.

"King Neptune, you betrayed Whitebeard to curry favor with the World Government, putting Fish-Man Island in danger of destruction."

A figure leaped down from the head of a Sea Rhinoceros and looked at Neptune, saying, "Neptune, I cannot stand by and watch you plunge Fish-Man Island into war."

"Hody Jones".

King Neptune looked rather displeased upon seeing the other party.

Meanwhile, another figure walked up a short distance away and said, "King Neptune, it's been a long time."

"Vander Decken, so you've joined the rebels after all," Neptune said coldly, looking at him.

"I once asked you to marry Shirahoshi to me, but you refused," Vander Decken said with a smile. "Now it seems that if you had actually done so back then, I would be your ally now."

"How could I possibly let Shirahoshi marry someone like you?" Neptune said angrily.

Hody Jones stepped forward, looked at Ace in the distance, and said with a smile, "Ace, I didn't expect you to be out of trouble. We rushed here to help you get out of trouble."

Upon hearing this, Ace raised an eyebrow and asked, "You're planning to save us?"

"Certainly."

Hody laughed and said, "Hachi has joined us too, planning to overthrow the regime in Dragon Palace City and save you. Oh, and the Baroque Works ' Giant Beast, it's over there."

Not far from Hody Jones, Hachi stood there, while Xia Qiu lay prone not far away, right behind Hody Jones.

"This..."

Neptune and Ace were both puzzled.

In Neptune's opinion, shouldn't Hachi be waiting outside for them to leave together?

Ace didn't understand why the president had joined the rebels. What was he trying to do? Had Hachi not told the truth?

What should we do next?

Neptune and Ace were both somewhat bewildered, Heckle asked in a low voice, "What should we do next?"

"Wait a moment."

Ace said softly, "The president is over there. We'll see what he does."

"How is Ace?"

From a distance, Hody Jones shouted, "Want to join us and act together?"

Upon hearing this, Ace laughed and said, "Alright, then we'll wipe out the Royal Army together."

"Hahaha."

Hody Jones laughed loudly, "King Neptune, did you hear that? Ace has joined forces with us. You are no match for him. Surrender!"

"What exactly is going on?"

King Neptune was puzzled. How did things turn out this way? How did Ace end up being associated with Hody Jones again?

"Surrender? What are you thinking? How could I possibly hand over Fish-Man Island to you?" Neptune gripped his bronze staff tightly.

"If you want to take Fish-Man Island, you'll have to step over our dead bodies," Fukaboshi shouted.

"OK."

Hody Jones laughed and said, "Then we'll kill you all and take over Dragon Palace City."

With that, Hody Jones raised his hand, preparing to give the order.

"Wait a moment."

But at this moment, the World Government official English, suddenly spoke up, "Our conflict is no different from yours. Can you let us leave?"

"Oh? Who are you?"

Hody Jones looked at English.

English said somewhat fearfully, "I am an official of the World Government. We will not get involved in this matter. May I ask if you would allow us to leave?"

Upon hearing his words, Neptune's face darkened, and he said, "We are a member of the World Government, and you should help us fight against them."

English wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "Fish-Man Island is a member of the World Government, but that doesn't mean you are. If he becomes the king of Fish-Man Island, then it will still be Affiliated Nation of the World Government."

"So they were officials from the World Government."

Hody Jones nodded and said with a smile, "We are not at odds with you, but the battlefield is dangerous and could easily affect you. Why don't you come over to our side and rest in the rear? I will treat you to a feast after the battle is over."

"Well."

English immediately led two agents and ran toward Hody Jones.

Seeing him leave, King Neptune raised his bronze staff, intending to strike him down, but he put it down in vain.

"Very good, in that case."

Upon seeing English, Hody Jones smiled with satisfaction, then suddenly took out an ES Fierce Medicine, popped it into his mouth, and crushed it with a crunch.

After swallowing the Energy Steroids.

Swoosh.

Hody Jones had vanished from sight.

Boom, boom.

The next moment, the two World Government agents were sent flying backward, their chests caved in, and they lay there coughing up blood.

"Um?"

English was stunned, her face showing fear. "What... what are you going to do?"

tread

Hody Jones grabbed English by the neck, lifted him up, and said, "What are you going to do? Kill you, of course."

"No, no, you can't kill me. I'm a World Government official. If you kill me, you won't be spared."

English looked terrified and struggled incessantly, trying to pry Hody Jones's fingers off, but to no avail.

"Is that so? The World Government? You are our enemies too, of course we must eliminate you as well."

"Hody Jones said cruelly, tightening his fingers, and with a snap, English's neck was broken."

Snap.

Hody Jones tossed English's body aside, raised his hands, and said, "Prepare to attack."

With his voice, his troops immediately prepared to launch an attack.

But in that instant, with a thud, a huge black shadow appeared behind Hody, its enormous teeth snapping at his head.

Armament Haki, Tooth-Grinding Spear.

not good.

As the attack drew near, Hody Jones instinctively raised his arms and braced himself against the wall.

Click.

Hody Jones's arms were severed, and his teeth pierced through and landed on his head.

Bang.

Hody Jones's head exploded, bones mixed with brain matter and blood flying in all directions.

Click.

Xia Qiu used her wrists and feet to knock the bag containing the ES Fierce Medicine Hody Jones's body, then bit into Hody Jones's corpse, swallowed it, and began to chew it.

The Fish-Man tastes really good.
