Welcomed by King Neptune and Jinbe, the powerful figures of the Goa Empire entered Fish-Man Island.
The Exile Emperor was immediately towed to the Ryugu Kingdom's official coating shipyard for rapid coating.
"Keep it simple, we plan to visit Fish-Man Island."
Looking at the 'polite and enthusiastic' King Neptune, Wang Shi spoke directly.
He could sense that Neptune's enthusiasm wasn't genuine.
This guy was only being so warm and polite because he was intimidated by the power of the Goa Empire and its strength of One Emperor and Three Marquesses.
After all, the relationship between the Fish-Men and humans is not exactly friendly right now.
The Ryugu Kingdom even has a rather strained relationship with the World Government.
King Neptune has been absent from the quadrennial Reverie since the death of Queen Otohime.
Even their membership in the Affiliated Nation is somewhat precarious.
If Jinbe n't become one of the Shichibukai the Sea, easing tensions between Fish-Man Island and the World Government, the situation on Fish-Man Island would likely be even worse.
"Alright, after His Majesty's welcoming ceremony and baptism Wang Shi, I will have my three sons and Jinbe act as your guides."
King Neptune, still with a benevolent expression, instructed his Minister of the Right to cancel some of the performances.
Sanji, whose ears had been perked up the whole time, felt his heart bleed when he heard the words "cancel the mermaid show".
The mermaid he always longed for.
I hope to encounter more mermaids during my next visit to Fish-Man Island.
Wang Shi and his companions entered the magnificent Ryugu Castle together.
After a truly unique Fish-Man Island feast.
The people of the Goa Empire, each with a large sum of money in their hands, all went to visit Fish-Man Island.
Wang Shi originally wanted to meet Princess Shirahoshi and establish a good relationship, but King Neptune politely declined, though his tone was quite firm.
Neptune had long known the secret that Shirahoshi was Poseidon, and he would never allow a human emperor to come into contact with Shirahoshi.
Faced with Neptune's guarded and dismissive attitude, Wang Shi had no choice but to temporarily give up the opportunity.
However, he gave Princess Shirahoshi a gift.
A special large Den Den Mushi and a large-sized Memory Metal cloak.
Wang Shi originally intended to give it to Shirahoshi personally, but now he can only do so through Neptune, the doting father.
Neptune was reluctant, but upon seeing the Memory Metal cloak that could defend against slashes and attacks, he immediately accepted the gift on Shirahoshi's behalf.
Shirahoshi, who is under threat from Van der Decken IX, needs this Memory Metal cloak to protect herself.
Wang Shi also left the Ryugu Castle and went to Fish-Man Island for a visit.
He went to the Mermaid Cafe to find Madame Shyarly.
But Madame Shyarly actually left the Mermaid Cafe and went into hiding, refusing to meet with Goa Emperor Wang Shi, who was also her brother's killer.
Did they foresee my arrival?
Wang Shi smiled indifferently; after all, he had anticipated that Shyarly might dislike him when he killed the Arlong.
To these Fish-Man and mermaids, this human emperor seemed even more terrifying than the pirates.
After suffering repeated setbacks, Wang Shi could only accompany the Angel Robin to the Sea Forest to see the Poneglyph that recorded Joy Boy's letter of apology.
This is of no value to the Wang Shi, but it is one of the most satisfying 'truths' in Robin's history.
She wants to unravel the historical truth behind these 'puzzle pieces' that gradually form the Great Kingdom.
···
Wang Shi sensed the tension among the three mermaid princes and Jinbe, which greatly displeased Wang Shi.
He also didn't bother to deal with the potential problems caused by Van der Decken IX and Hody Jones.
However, he still sent Aramaki to Fish-Man District, where he beat up Hody Jones and forcibly stole some Energy Steroid.
Wang Shi planned to have the top 10 doctors and Germa scientists thoroughly study these forbidden drugs that enhance strength by consuming lifespan.
Chopper's Rumble Ball formula has already been under intensive research and development.
I believe that the Goa Empire will soon possess several 'holy medicines'.
The World Government and those in charge of major powers will definitely love this 'miracle drug'.
King Neptune and Jinbe were also helpless regarding the incident of the Marquess of Impalement assaulting someone.
The reason given by Aramaki was that Hody Jones and the other Fish-Man were staring at him, a noble imperial Marquess, with hostile eyes, and even tried to attack him.
So Aramaki gave these Fish-Man a clean and efficient lesson.
Neptune and Jinbe also knew the character of those thugs in Fish-Man District.
They could only suppress the retaliatory fury of the Fish-Man District.
This made Hody Jones and his group even more resentful of humans, the incompetent royal family, and Jinbe, the lackey of the World Government.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Goa Empire were having a great time in the bustling Fish-Man Sun District.
Aramaki and Sanji even enjoyed a massage from a mermaid.
This almost killed Sanji, but luckily his older sister Reiju gave him a sharp rap on the head, stopping his Sanji thoughts and stopping the nosebleed.
The next day, the Goa Empire members quickly left Fish-Man Island.
Only Wang Shi was not very satisfied with the trip, while the others had a great time.
In total, everyone spent over a billion Belly.
They bought a huge amount of various supplies and specialties from Fish-Man Island, filling several of Capone Bege's castle rooms, and even the Exile Emperor had a lot more stuff.
No wonder these guys lingered there, reluctant to leave.
···
Several days later.
The Exile Emperor appeared in Punk Hazard, where scattered poison gas still lingered.
Before the new year, Caesar had already escaped from prison and had a bounty of 300 million Belly placed on his head by the World Government.
Even the World Government couldn't find out where this evil scientist had escaped to.
It seems that Doflamingo and Vergo are doing things very discreetly.
Now Caesar has already returned to Punk Hazard and begun his collaboration with Doflamingo to create Artificial Devil Fruit.
"Doflamingo, send someone out to pick me up right away. I'll grab a few things and leave."
"Otherwise, your Artificial Devil Fruit business will be finished."
Wang Shi rode Kirin Lion, flying above Punk Hazard, with only Aramaki flying beside Wang Shi.
This guy's moral bottom line is a notch below Yixiao's; there are some dark things that Yixiao doesn't need to see.
Wang Shi didn't want to waste time searching for the research institute where Caesar was located.
Doflamingo, on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, was already gritting his teeth; he was truly wary of Wang Shi's intelligence capabilities.
How could Wang Shi know about the things he had been doing so secretly?
He was truly being completely controlled by Wang Shi, which greatly displeased Doflamingo.
But more than anything, there was apprehension and worry.
Soon, a ball of white snow flew out and transformed into a green-haired woman, who led Wang Shi and Aramaki into the research institute.
Following Doflamingo's instructions, Monet, the Snow Woman, prevented Wang Shi from contacting Caesar, fearing that Wang Shi would steal the scientist away.
Monet simply led the two to the supplies area to look for things.
Monet was utterly bewildered when Wang Shi went straight to break a glass dome and quickly picked up a failed Artificial Devil Fruit.
After all, in Caesar's eyes, this Artificial Devil Fruit was an absolute failure, a piece of Vegapunk's garbage.
But why would Wang Shi, the Emperor of Exile, value this Artificial Devil Fruit so much?
Does this fruit hold some secret?
Or is there something Caesar is hiding from Doflamingo?
When Wang Shi received the Artificial Azure Dragon Fruit, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
'Sword Spirit, what do you think of this fruit?'
