Jinbe Arrives at Marineford!

On the Dragon side, warships slowly entered the harbor of Marineford. The atmosphere here was as lively as ever, with dozens of large warships lined up in a row.

Naval personnel from all ranks came and went, and the square, which could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people in a battle, was not empty at all. In the distance, the huge and magnificent Fortress of Justice Fortress looked down on everything like a king.

"Lock up those One Piece for now. I'll talk to the Fleet Admiral about this first," Dragon instructed a Major behind him.

"Yes!"

Just as the Major turned to go to the cabin to deal with the situation, Dragon's gaze fell on another warship moored not far away.

There, a large group of navy personnel were gathered. If one were standing in the square at eye level, one would probably not be able to see anything, but he was standing on the deck of a warship, which gave him a commanding view of the situation inside.

"Fish-Man? Mermaid?"

Yes, a line of male Fish-Man descended from the warship, numbering at least a hundred. Among them were several beautiful women; were it not for their exotic Fish-Man Island attire, they would have looked no different from human women.

"Wow, is this the Marine Headquarters? It's huge!" Kuna, with her flowing blue hair, excitedly grabbed her companion's arm and laughed as soon as she stepped onto the plaza.

"Mmm, everything here is so big! The buildings are huge, the plazas are huge, the ships are huge! Look! Look! There are even super tall people over there!"

Ivonne, whose arm was being grabbed and shaken back and forth, was equally excited. Her beautiful eyes swept across the Justice Fortress and the square, finally stopping on the Giants Vice Admiral by in the distance, and her little mouth immediately opened wide.

Giants were legendary beings to them!

"Ahhh, so beautiful!"

"Are they mermaids? The mermaids from fairy tales! I can't believe I'm seeing them in person, and so close at that!"

The surrounding marines also had their eyes shining, their gazes like high-definition cameras, automatically ignoring the bizarre Fish-Man and fixing their eyes on the mermaid girls, who numbered only five.

For a moment, the three groups of humans, mermaids, and Fish-Man sized each other up, making the scene quite amusing.

"But why did Vice Admiral Aokiji so many Fish-Man?" A captain in the navy looked at Kuzan in the arena with a puzzled expression.

"They probably brought them for a visit!"

"I think it's possible, but are you sure it wasn't brought for us to visit?"

Just then, Dragon walked over, and wherever he went, the various ranks of the Navy made way for him. Now the entire Marine Headquarters knew that Vice Admiral Garp's son was also a Logia Fruit user, and was destined to become a big shot in the future.

However, the latest issue of the newspaper will not be published for Empress, so they are unaware of the Slave King's arrest.

"Kuzan, what's going on with these Fish-Man?"

As Dragon asked the question, he glanced at Jinbe and Aladdin beside him, because their auras were the strongest.

"Oh, you look like you just got back from a busy day, right?"

Kuzan smiled. He and Dragon were quite familiar with each other, after all, he had followed Garp for a while, so the two had a good relationship.

"They are the first Fish-Man Race and Merfolk to join the Navy. This is Jinbe, who will be the commander of the Fish-Man Unit, and this is Major Aladdin, the deputy commander."

After saying that, Kuzan introduced Dragon to Jinbe and Aladdin, smiling, "This is Rear Admiral Dragon, son of Vice Admiral Garp, and also a Logia Fruit user!"

"Hello, Rear Admiral Dragon, please take care of me from now on!" Jinbe greeted on behalf of the group.

"Hello."

Dragon nodded with some surprise, then looked at Kuzan with a puzzled expression. Kuzan scratched the back of his head and smiled as he briefly explained the details of the cooperation between the World Government and Fish-Man Island.

This is no longer a secret; the Fleet Admiral will inform the entire army about the Fish-Man later.

"Designate the Sabaody Archipelago as Fish-Man Safety Zone, allowing the Neptune Army to be stationed and patrol there. The Navy will also establish a branch on Fish-Man Island and invite two hundred Fish-Man Race and Merfolk to join the Navy." Dragon quickly reviewed the important information in his mind, becoming more and more surprised the more he thought about it.

The fact that they joined forces in this mission to capture the Slave King clearly shows that the World Government is determined to crack down on slavery this time.

But he is still confused. What happened to the World Government? Why has it changed so drastically, to the point that he doesn't even recognize it anymore!

"So the Neptune Army has now occupied the Sabaody Archipelago?"

"Yes, they set off with us and should have arrived by now. From now on, Area 62 there will be the exclusive base of the Neptune Army, which happens to be adjacent to our Marine Base there."

Just as Kuzan and Dragon were chatting, the surrounding naval crowd parted again, this time with an even wider opening. A middle-aged Vice Admiral with a dark blue ponytail led a group of female officers over.

"Ara ara, long time no see, Vice Admiral Tsuru ~" Kuzan saw the person coming and quickly took two steps to greet him. Dragon, who was beside him, also followed closely and greeted him respectfully.

"Hello!"

"Really? Not long, but it'll be quite a while before we see each other again after you go back this time." Vice Admiral Tsuru Kuzan, then looked at Dragon and smiled, "You did a great job on this mission, very well done. Go on up, Fleet Admiral Kong is waiting for you."

"Yes!"

Dragon nodded, and without lingering any longer, strode towards the magnificent Justice Fortress. Once at headquarters, most of the ability users would consciously refrain from using their abilities and the Six Powers.

This is both to show respect for Marineford and to maintain basic order; otherwise, it would be too chaotic and noisy.

"We need to get back as soon as possible. The situation on Fish-Man Island isn't good. One Piece are breaking in almost every day, especially One Piece from the 'New World.'"

Kuzan looked troubled when this was mentioned. He hadn't slept well for the past two nights because many clever One Piece chose to strike at night.

"Heh, this is nothing. You'll be in real trouble when those great One Piece pass by Fish-Man Island!"

Vice Admiral Tsuru gave a reminder, instructing, "You must be careful there, especially in your training of your own strength. Don't slack off and reach the combat power of Admiral as soon as possible!"

"Ara ara, I understand all of that~" Kuzan listened to Vice Admiral Tsuru's earnest words and enjoyed the feeling.

He was orphaned at a young age and had to scavenge for scraps and steal to survive. Fortunately, he met He, who was working in the South Blue Branch when he was young. He was taken to the Marine Base to be raised and educated, and finally had a better living environment. This also gave him a great passion for the navy.

Therefore, for Kuzan, Vice Admiral Tsuru was not much different from his adoptive mother.

Vice Admiral Tsuru began to get down to business, saying, "Alright, I'll take care of these merfolk. They'll be joining the Female Soldier Unit. As for the Fish-Man Race, take them to Building C in Dormitory Area 3. Their specific positions will be given to you by the Fleet Admiral."

"Yes."

Kuzan naturally had no objection and casually asked with a smile, "Is Professor Zephyr here? I brought some wine, a specialty of Fish-Man Island, and I'd like to have a drink with him."

"What a coincidence! He just brought this year's students back last night. You should go quickly. Oh, and take them to their dorms first; that's the important thing!"

"Okay, okay, don't worry, it won't be delayed!" Kuzan replied with a smile.

Jinbe, Aladdin, and nearly two hundred Fish-Man were observing their surroundings and anticipating the future.

The Fish-Man Race are finally about to integrate into the human world!
