"Hmm, that's good. It seems that after a night of fermentation, the news has reached that madman's ears!"
Gawain smiled and looked into the distance, where dozens of beams of light were tracking Shirahoshi's direction in the sky.
Shirahoshi was drifting through the Sea Forest, seemingly searching for something, so much so that she was completely unaware of the attack coming from behind.
However, Gion was much more alert than Shirahoshi. Just as the flying object approached, Gion lightly leaped and went straight behind Shirahoshi.
"Princess Shirahoshi, Vander Decken's gift has arrived, I'll take care of it right away!"
"Ah?"
Shirahoshi was clearly a little confused, and she nodded nervously.
"Yes, whatever you say, Gion."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shirahoshi came to a stop. She curled up her tail and sat there hugging herself with both hands.
Gion leaped into the air, looking at the countless weapons that were getting closer and closer, and said disdainfully.
"He didn't even apply Armament Haki. It's such a waste that this guy ate the Mato Mato no Mi!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Gion gripped the hilt of her sword with her left hand and lowered her body slightly.
A moment later, a cold light flashed at her waist, and the Kompira was instantly drawn.
"Yaksha God..."
With a soft chant, the blades she unleashed swiftly converged into a net, the unparalleled sword energy catching all the incoming weapons like a fishing net!
Ding ding ding!!!
After a series of crisp sounds, the weapons in the sky were sliced into pieces one after another. The pieces did not fall, but continued to fly towards the Shirahoshi, maintaining their trajectory.
Seeing this, Gion shook her head in boredom and gently turned the Kompira in her left hand around once.
A moment later, the spinning Kompira suddenly returned to its sheath, and boundless energy erupted from the point where Gion had inserted the blade, directly blocking Shirahoshi's path.
At the same time, Gion murmured a prayer.
"Heavenly Demon Power"
Clang!
Countless fragments crashed into the black wall and vanished in the blink of an eye.
Gion pursed her lips, still savoring the moment, then held her sword and gazed into the distance.
Behind her, Shirahoshi's worried eyes gradually brightened.
"Sister Rabbit, is there... is there any more?"
"Have no idea."
Gion shook her head, and at the same time, she fell back to the ground from the air.
"While Vander Decken's strength is quite poor, his Devil Fruit is truly disgusting. He's unwilling to step forward and stand in front of us, and we can't find him, so I can't guarantee when the attack will come!"
At this point, Gion pondered for a moment, then reached out and grabbed Shirahoshi's somewhat uneasy tail.
"But don't worry, Princess Shirahoshi, his so-called attacks are like toys thrown by children in a quarrel, completely harmless."
Do what you want, and don't give those scumbags a second thought!
"Hmm... I'm not worried!"
Upon hearing Gion's words, Shirahoshi nodded heavily, and a hint of strength suddenly appeared in her previously fearful eyes.
"Even if danger comes at any time, I believe you will take good care of me, Sister Rabbit."
Even if it's extremely dangerous, there's still one thing I absolutely must do!
"Let me be a little selfish this time. I'm sorry to trouble you, Sister Rabbit!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shirahoshi placed her hand in front of Gion. Upon seeing this, Gion chuckled softly and jumped into Shirahoshi's hand.
Shirahoshi pulled her hand back to her chest, then swam quickly, and soon the two completely disappeared from the outer edge of the Sea Forest.
In the distance, at the edge of the Sea Forest, Gion watched as the attack was swiftly and decisively resolved.
Gawain patted Jinbe's arm.
"See Gion we can trust."
"Indeed, my lord, just as you trust me to be by your side, I am very confident in the strength of Gion Vice Admiral Gion."
However, Vander Decken was different from ordinary people; he was a complete madman!
I'm still a little worried, after all, I can't imagine what a madman might do next!
As soon as he finished speaking, Jinbe glanced at Gawain with concern.
"My lord, why don't we give chase?"
"Uh, if you want to catch up with them, I'm afraid you'll have to carry me on your back..."
Gawain responded helplessly.
Jinbe didn't stand on ceremony. After hearing what Gawain said, he immediately put Gawain on his broad back.
As he ran, Jinbe muttered to himself with worry.
"Aside from Vander Decken, I haven't seen Devil Fruit User before him. I don't know much about this kind of Devil Fruit."
If he could truly launch everything towards his target, what if he launched a mountain?
"Although a mountain can't harm me or Gion Vice Admiral, it could easily affect you and Princess Shirahoshi."
"Haha, well, it seems you really know a lot about Vander Decken."
Gawain responded with a smile.
"You're right, he really is a madman. He can move a mountain or throw anything else that can destroy Fish-Man Island over here."
Those are all things he might do.
However, even though you understand Vander Decken, you don't understand madmen!
As soon as he finished speaking, Gawain waved to Shirahoshi, who had noticed Jinbe approaching from afar and turned around to look at him.
While waving, Gawain continued to laugh.
"In my opinion, what Vander Decken will do next is throw himself at Shirahoshi!"
When faced with someone stealing your love, a madman naturally wants to ask them directly and get to the bottom of it, haha!
As for his own safety, and my identity as Celestial Dragon.
How could a madman consider such things, haha!
On the other hand, near the underwater volcano, next to the badly injured body of the Kraken.
Anglerfish towed Vander Decken's ship, while the Dai Nyudo stayed beside the Kraken, picking up Kraken broken tentacles.
On the ship, Vander Decken, dressed in bubbles, stood at the edge of the deck, gesturing wildly as he watched the Merfolk sent by Hody Jones beside him.
"Hehehe, you've come at the perfect time, you idiot."
"It's rare that the Kraken has had many tentacles severed, so you can try some fresh takoyaki with me, haha!"
"Well..."
Icarus Mushi sighed in frustration.
"Vander Decken, I am the Great Squid Fish-Man myself, do I need you to help me prepare the ingredients for takoyaki!"
I'm not here for a meal; I have important information to share with you. I've brought my older Hody Jones..."
"Wow wow wow wow, Hody Jones!"
Vander Decken was visibly displeased, and he grabbed Mushi's shoulders with his gloved hands.
"You actually turned down my dinner invitation, hahaha, you actually turned me down!"
No one can refuse me, not a single person!
Come, follow me, I accept the dinner invitation from the great Captain Vander Decken.
Right now, follow me, and learn one word at a time!!!
"Don't go crazy, Vander Decken. The situation is very tense right now. You simply don't have time to prepare dinner."
Just last night, the Celestial Dragon abducted Princess Shirahoshi, whom you've always loved. In front of everyone on Fish-Man Island, he asked Shirahoshi to be his fiancée, Princess Shirahoshi accepted!
"I've said it before, no one can refuse me, not even Hody Jones, or White..."
Vander Decken, who had been speaking with a fierce expression, suddenly changed his tune after hearing Mushi's words...
His fierce expression vanished instantly!
"White White Shirahoshi... Princess!!!"
Tear!
Vander Decken suddenly grabbed Mushi's suspenders.
"Are you talking about my lover all along, Princess Shirahoshi?"
We were torn apart by that wretched Neptune, separated to the point that my princess is imprisoned in the Hard-Shell Tower, while her knight is relentlessly wanted by his entire kingdom!
We love each other so much that even though five whole years have passed and we haven't seen each other for five years, I have always insisted on sending gifts to Shirahoshi, and Shirahoshi always accepts those gifts!
But now you're telling me that Shirahoshi accepted someone else's marriage proposal!!!
As soon as he finished speaking, Vander Decken started spinning around wildly, causing quite a commotion on his deck.
He grabbed every weapon he could reach and threw it away with all his might!
After throwing the last weapon off the deck, Vander Decken knelt on the ground and wept bitterly, looking up at the sky.
After crying for a few minutes, he got up again. Since he had no weapons, he threw the tables, chairs, benches, broken deck, and everything else into the air.
As he threw it away, Vander Decken cried out in heartbreak.
"Impossible, this is impossible! Our love is like a diamond, enduring and lasting. She could never betray me, absolutely not!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Vander Decken looked at Mushi and his eyes lit up.
"That's all just your side of the story, absolutely!"
He pointed at Mushi and started cursing.
"You wait, you bastard, I'm going to ask my lover, Shirahoshi, for her own words right now. I'm going to make her say she loves me. No one can ignore the pursuit of the great Vander Decken."
After Shirahoshi accepts my proposal in front of everyone, I'm going to turn you into takoyaki, hahaha!
Laughing wildly, Vander Decken threw the last sofa beside him, leaped onto it in two quick steps, and then disappeared into the sea along with the sofa.
And until this point...
Startled by Vander Decken's crazy actions, Mushi quickly pulled out Den Den Mushi and called his boss.
"Hello, is this Hody Jones? This is Mushi!"
The situation is different from what you expected!
I had barely finished speaking when that madman, Vander Decken, refused to even see you and flew straight towards Shirahoshi!!!
