The migration target selected by Fish-Man Island is Calm Belt located in the first half of Grand Line.
Fish-Man Island migrates to the sea and loses the protection of the 10,000-meter deep sea. It will inevitably be coveted by a large number of criminals.
Fish-Man Island Under the 10,000-meter deep sea, Fish-Man and Mermaid's natural home ground cannot stop the crazy pirates and slave traders. They still need the protection of Whitebeard to find stability, let alone on the sea surface?
Having lost the protection of Whitebeard, New Fish-Man Island must strengthen its own defense force. In principle, Marines can only provide offshore maritime protection. It is unprecedented to directly station troops at Member States.
World Government would like to do this, but King Member States would not agree - Fish-Man Island must abide by all Member States's default rules when migrating to the sea, one of which is the issue of garrisoning.
Therefore, if Fish-Man Island wants to enhance its protective power, it must think of ways from the environment.
Calm Belt, obviously a good location.
Compared to Calm Belt on the side of Sabaody Archipelago where the situation is complicated, Neptune and others are more inclined to look for the island on the other side Calm Belt - the side Calm Belt where Impel Down "Impel Down" is located.
In this way, New Fish-Man Island will be separated from Sabaody Archipelago by Enies Lobby and Tarai Current, forming a natural isolation. With the protection of Calm Belt, it can be protected from the threat of pirates to a great extent.
However, on this side Calm Belt, there is another force that cannot be ignored.
Kuja Island, a country with only women, "Amazon Lily".
Kuja Island's boat can freely enter and leave Calm Belt, relying on huge snakes to pull the boat, and those huge snakes are highly venomous sea snakes living in Calm Belt. They are so ferocious that even Sea Kings dare not provoke them.
New Fish-Man Island is a large island between Impel Down and Kuja Island. It has a good climate, but it is not as inhabited as Kuja Island.
It is a perfect place for Fish-Man and Merfolk to migrate.
But now, Ryugu Ship, which Wright, Queen Otohime, and Prince Manboshi were traveling on, unfortunately encountered...
"Kuja Pirates" pirate ship, "Perfume Yuda"!
"..."
Wright tilted his head with a headache. At this important time, he met the willful Pirate Empress. Is this luck or misfortune?
On the one hand, if Kuja welcomes new "neighbors", then the new force will receive a huge boost from the beginning when it is established.
On the other hand, if Kuja Island expresses resistance to the arrival of new forces, it will be more troublesome. After all, Nine Snake Pirate Empress Boa Hancock is one of Shichibukai, and the most willful one...
But, this is for humans, if Fish-Man and Mermaid... maybe things will develop for the better.
On Perfume Yuda, Kuja female Warriors apparently also discovered Ryugu Ship.
"Master Sandersonia, the people on the ship in front of you are very strange. It seems... well, anyway, you should go and see it for yourself."
Kuja Pirates crew member, female Warrior Eniesita, reported to Boya·Sandersonia with a huge head and long green hair. While Snake Princess-sama was resting, Master Sandersonia was in charge of things on the ship.
"Weird?"
Sandersonia turned to look at her sister Boya·Marigold, who nodded to her, and they came to the bow of the ship together.
"That's..."
Sandersonia took a closer look at the sail of Ryugu Ship. The huge word "dragon" reminded her of the information she saw in the newspaper recently——
Kuja is located in Calm Belt, and Newspaper Delivery Bird is not willing to come at all, so newspapers are very scarce. The newspaper was obtained during the previous robbery.
The newspaper devoted a lot of space to introducing the most important recent event - World Meeting. Naturally, it also talked about the most important issue of this World Meeting, Fish-Man Island Ryugu Kingdom's migration to the sea, in great detail.
Therefore, the distinctive Ryugu Ship was recognized by Sandersonia.
"That's Fish-Man Island's ship! The people on board... are Fish-Man and Mermaid!"
"That's...Queen Otohime, and Prince Manboshi mentioned in the newspaper, and..."
Marigold recognized the figure wearing Justice Coat:
"Marine Headquarters Admiral, "Orange Valiant" Wright!"
"It seems that I have to tell onee-sama about this."
Sandersonia held back his excitement. The newspaper did not explain where Fish-Man Island would move to. This would be announced to the world after the preliminary construction of New Fish-Man Island was completed. They had no idea that they would meet them in Calm Belt, not far from Kuja!
"He is a member of that lord's clan... onee-sama will definitely be very happy!"
Marigold said happily, and the two walked towards the cabin together to meet their sister, the emperor of Kuja, "Pirate Empress" Boa Hancock!
"Otohime-dono, Prince Manboshi, the ship in front is one of the 'Shichibukai', 'Pirate Empress' Boa Hancock's pirate ship. Your Majesty Empress is more... well, willful. Please don't take offense later. She should have no ill intentions towards Fish-Man Island."
Wright briefly introduced Otohime and Sharks. In fact, no one expected to encounter Kuja's pirate ship so soon. Generally speaking, they would not leave Kuja Island too far, and this location was still a few days away from Kuja.
"It doesn't matter. Since I chose this location, I want to be in contact with Kuja Island. It's better to meet earlier."
Queen Otohime is quite optimistic. The original plan was to build New Fish-Man Island almost completely and then visit Kuja Island before announcing it to the world.
After all, Fish-Man Island, as a recently migrated force, does not want to be exposed to human sight when it has no ability to protect itself.
But now that they have met, although I don't understand why Wright Admiral would definitely say that the other party has no ill intentions towards Fish-Man Island, but even if there is, Queen Otohime is confident that they can turn their hostility into friendship.
"That's...Pirate Empress?"
The three of them saw the cabin door of the Perfume Yuda getting closer and closer open, and a beautiful figure walked out of it.
She is tall and has a peerless appearance. She has long black hair, wearing a pair of snake-shaped golden earrings, and her dark blue eyes seem to be intoxicating.
Boa Hancock, wearing a long purple cheongsam and high heels with a calm face, walked onto the bow amidst the cheers of "Snake Princess-sama" from the crew.
The two ships were almost close. The Ryugu and the Perfume Cobra stopped in tacit agreement. The three of them, Wright, Otohime and Shark Star, and the three Hancock sisters were facing each other at the bows of their respective ships.
"Marine Admiral is here, I really didn't expect it..."
Hancock stepped forward, and a snake stretched out its huge head and lifted her up.
"You can let Admiral personally protect you... I guess these are the Ryugu Kingdoms?"
"Yes, Boa Hancock, this is Ryugu Kingdom Princess Otohime, Otohime-dono, and His Highness Prince, Sharks."
Wright raised his eyebrows. To this day, with Holy Light Power body protection, he is completely immune to the charm of Hancock - maybe because that is also considered a negative status?
As for Fish-Man and Mermaid, they also showed a fascination with Hancock, the most beautiful woman in the world, beyond ordinary human beauties, but they were obviously much better than the sailors.
I don't know if it's because my princess is super beautiful and has resistance, or because of the different races...
"How about you come closer and talk?"
