Because Akira is the supporter of Navy Marshal, King Neptune no longer has any worries in his heart.
He straightened his huge body and his waist was as strong as ever before. He led a group of ministers and the three princes Shark Star, King Star, and Turtle Star to arrive in front of Hard-Shell Tower.
Just when Neptune was about to speak, a black shadow cut through the deep sea water, roaring with a sharp sound of breaking through the air!
Dang--
Amidst the harsh metal sound, a huge double-edged ax hit the solid shell of Hard-Shell Tower hard, shooting out dazzling sparks.
Immediately afterwards, Vander Deken IX's crazy and distorted voice came from afar. "Neptune! Open Hard-Shell Tower immediately! I want to see my future wife Princess Shirahoshi with my own eyes! Oh ho ho ho!"
"If you dare to play tricks, my target will not be just this broken tower!"
"Ryugu Kingdom Minister, your three precious sons, their residences will become my next targets! I will turn the entire Ryugu Kingdom into my shooting range!"
The naked threat made all the ministers turn pale, but Neptune just snorted coldly.
With Akira Marshal here, this clown won't be able to dance for long.
He ignored Vander Daken IX's shouts and waved to the guards.
"Open Hard-Shell Tower."
With a heavy sound, the heavy door that had isolated Princess Shirahoshi for four or five years slowly rose upwards.
The light poured out from behind the door, and a figure that was beyond imagination appeared in front of everyone.
She has dreamy long pale pink hair, like the softest silk, hanging casually behind her back. Her impeccable facial features seem to be the most perfect masterpiece of the gods. A pair of azure eyes, filled with tears at the moment, are like two pure and clear sapphires, looking wetly at the door.
The huge fish tail swings gently, and its scales reflect a colorful halo under the light.
She is Princess Shirahoshi.
After four or five years, she finally saw the outside world again.
"My lord father!"
Princess Shirahoshi's soft, crying voice sounded, and huge teardrops rolled uncontrollably from his eyes, each one as big as a crystal ball.
Her huge body moved forward, wanting to hug her father, but she seemed a little timid and clumsy due to years of confinement.
At this moment, Vander Deken IX's disgusting voice sounded again.
"Oh hehehe! My Shirahoshi! You are still so beautiful!"
"Quick! Come out of the tower yourself! My crew will pick you up! We will have a grand wedding on my ship tonight!"
Neptune took a deep breath and issued the cruel order to his daughter according to the plan.
"Shirahoshi, do as he says."
"Eh?"
Princess Shirahoshi's huge body stiffened suddenly. She looked at her father in disbelief, her blue eyes filled with confusion and grievance.
"Father... Father, Your Majesty? Are you... going to marry me to that terrible person?"
She didn't understand why, after not seeing each other for several years, her father wanted to push her into the abyss whenever he opened his mouth.
The grievance and fear instantly overwhelmed her. Shirahoshi couldn't bear it any longer. She cried loudly with a "wow" sound, and huge teardrops hit the ground like a heavy rain.
Seeing this, the eldest prince Shark Star hurriedly swam to Shirahoshi, leaned into her ear, lowered his voice, and explained at the fastest speed, "Shirahoshi, don't be afraid! This is the plan of the navy Lord Marshal!"
"We are going to lure that bastard Vander Deken out! As long as he dares to show up, Lord Marshal will personally take action and get rid of him completely!"
"Navy Lord Marshal?"
Princess Shirahoshi sobbed and looked at her eldest brother with tearful eyes. This name was extremely unfamiliar to her, and she said softly, "Why would the navy help us?"
"Times have changed, Shirahoshi!" Shark Star's tone was extremely solemn, "Now Navy Marshal's name is Akira! He is an adult worthy of the trust and entrustment of all of us!"
"Believe in my father, believe in me, and even more, believe in Lord Marshal!"
Akira?
Princess Shirahoshi chanted this name silently in his heart.
Although she was still trembling with fear, the firm eyes of her father and brother gave her a faint hint of courage.
She wiped her tears, moved her huge body slowly, left the Hard-Shell Tower that had imprisoned her for several years, and swam slowly towards the huge bubble wrap that wrapped the entire Fish-Man Island, alone.
At the same time, on the dark seabed in the distance, on the ship Flying Pirates.
Vander Deken IX is staring at every move here through the telescope.
When he saw Princess Shirahoshi really alone, swimming towards the bubble wrap without any defense, his ugly face was instantly occupied by ecstasy and greed!
Not a trap!
Neptune That old guy was really scared to death by himself!
"Oh ho ho ho ho! Oh ho ho ho ho!"
Vander Deken IX laughed maniacally and his whole body trembled with excitement.
He is finally going to get Princess Shirahoshi!
He will also get the legendary mermaid princess who can control Sea King that the first generation ancestor of the Vander Deken family has been looking for for many years!
As long as he gets her, let alone Fish-Man Island, the whole world will crawl at his feet!
He seemed to have seen himself ruling the world, and the smile on his face became more ferocious.
Seeing Princess Shirahoshi getting closer and closer to the huge bubble film, Vander Daken IX could no longer hold back. He stood up from the deck suddenly, preparing to rush over as fast as possible and kidnap his "treasure" away!
However, the moment he set off.
A figure suddenly appeared next to Princess Shirahoshi without any warning.
The man just stood suspended in the air, as if he were stepping on invisible stairs.
He was wearing a Navy Marshal coat with the word "Justice" printed on it, and a Supreme Grade Sword that exuded a terrifying aura on his waist.
He just stood there quietly, his natural kingly aura undisguised, calming the violent sea currents around him.
"Ah--"
When Princess Shirahoshi saw Vander Deken IX preparing to charge in the distance, he screamed in fright, and his huge body subconsciously shrank back.
But the moment Akira appeared beside her, an inexplicable and unprecedented sense of peace enveloped her instantly.
It seems that as long as this man is here, there is no need to be afraid if the sky falls.
She subconsciously turned her head, looking at Akira with those huge eyes that I felt pity for, with a bit of curiosity and dependence, and said timidly, "Excuse me... are you... Master Navy Marshal Akira?"
Akira smiled and nodded to her.
With just this simple action, Princess Shirahoshi's heart completely calmed down.
Akira then stepped into the void, took a step forward, and glanced at Vander Deken IX opposite.
The moment his eyes swept across, Vander Deken IX suddenly felt as if the blood in his body had stopped flowing!
The ecstasy and greed on his face were like frozen sculptures, frozen on his face.
Fooled!
This is a booby-trapped operation against him!
And the person who designed this booby trap plan is actually the Navy Marshal, Akira who is now so powerful that even Five Elders has to stay away!
The moment Akira looked over with his calm gaze, Vander Daken IX's mind went blank, leaving only the most primitive survival instinct of living things!
Escape!
He didn't hesitate at all, didn't even dare to say a harsh word, turned around suddenly, used all his strength, and ran away towards his pirate ship like crazy!
With a "bang", Vander Daken IX fell to the deck of the flying pirate ship in embarrassment.
He rolled to his feet and roared hysterically at the frightened crew members.
"Set the boat! Set the boat quickly!!"
"Retreat! Retreat immediately! Run as far as you can!!"
He pointed in the direction of Akira, his voice became shrill and shrill due to extreme fear, and he looked like a madman.
"Take action! You idiots!"
"That's Akira! That's Navy Marshal Akira!!"
