"Hello, little mermaid."
Dimon said hello cordially.
Otohime looks like she is only seventeen or eighteen years old now. She opens a pair of curious big eyes and looks at the legendary winemaker.
"So, you are the executed One Piece, Gordon Roger? It's different from the one on the wanted order..."
"It's Gol·D·Roger, the little mermaid."
Two world-famous figures!
Otohime's eyes are full of curiosity. The reputation of these two people is well known even to Fishman Island who lives in Ten Thousand Meters Deep Sea.
"Please follow me. Since you are a distinguished guest, please go to the best private room."
Otohime comforted his clerk, and then led Dimon to a private room.
After sitting down, Dimon held his cheek with one hand and said, "You are different from other Fish-Man, are you not afraid of us?"
"I hope that Fish-Man and humans can live together in a friendly way, but there have been many pirates on the island recently, and the situation is more complicated than imagined..."
Otohime sighed.
She often goes to Mermaid Bay, not just for fun, but to protect the young mermaids there.
If there are pirates targeting that place, she can use her Observation Haki to issue an early warning as soon as possible.
Humans with malicious intentions cannot escape her Observation Haki perception!
Suddenly, Otohime's eyes lit up and he thought of a good idea.
[If we can use the reputation of these two people, we can certainly deter pirates from attacking young mermaids, right?]
Her inner voice was captured by Observation Haki of Dimon.
This is the power of Count Red. After devouring him, Dimon naturally mastered this technique.
[But what reason do they have to help us Fishman Island? Hey...]
"Your idea is a bit naive." Dimon said funny, "The pirates who dare to bet on a 10% survival rate and come here are all brave people. The reputation of the two of us can indeed deter some people, but it is impossible to prevent them."
Drug trafficking is punishable by death, but there are still people who do it.
70 million for a mermaid, this is a huge profit among huge profits, enough to make people crazy enough to trample on everything.
"What are you talking about?" Roger looked confused.
Otohime opened his mouth in surprise and looked at Dimon blankly. "You... can you hear what I'm thinking?"
"She wants you to lend the pirate flag to Fishman Island to protect the young mermaids here."
Hearing this, Roger crossed his arms and was speechless at this innocent idea.
"Roger Pirates has been disbanded, but I can lend you Fishman Island. How about free coffee today?"
"Really?"
Otohime looked delighted and nodded excitedly. "As long as it's you two, you are welcome to come to my cafe at any time and I will always entertain you! Thank you, Mr. Roger, ah, and of course you, Mr. Dimon!"
Am I just passing by?
Dimon rolled his eyes at her and said, "Hurry up and prepare the coffee."
"Yes, go right away, please wait."
Otohime left happily. At only 17 or 8 years old, her fish tail had not yet split, and she jumped out of the private room relying on her tail.
Seeing Dimon looking at him, Roger immediately explained, "Last time I came here, I was able to find the road sign successfully. Thanks to Neptune's help, this can be regarded as a return favor."
"I didn't ask, you are free to do whatever you want."
After a pause, Dimon raised his lips slightly, "However, your pirate flag might actually cause trouble."
"World Government?" Roger pondered, "Forget it, I'll lend them the flag and it's up to them whether they use it or not."
Soon after, Otohime prepared coffee, and several mermaids came to the private room carrying coffee.
I have to say that all young female mermaids are very beautiful. If they were on Earth, they would definitely become internet celebrities with their faces.
The group of little mermaids brought the coffee to the table, and each one refused to leave, looking at the two of them curiously.
Dimon picked up the coffee and tasted it, then smiled and said, "Not bad, it's not in vain."
"This is sister Otohime's best coffee!" a slightly younger mermaid said happily.
"And our Fishman Island cake is super delicious. Please try it too!"
"I heard from Sister Otohime that you are all important people on land. Even the king of mankind will respect you when he sees you. Is it true?"
The little mermaids talked to each other and asked questions.
"Hahaha, the human king respects us?" Roger laughed dumbly, "They will contact the navy to arrest us as soon as possible. After all, we are pirates."
"I am not a pirate, I am the king of mankind." Dimon grinned. "Wano Country's general!"
"General?!"
The little mermaids had expressions of admiration on their faces.
Dimon can listen to the hearts of others and confirm that these little mermaids truly worship, rather than just pretending to be a business person.
Oh, what a group of cute mermaids. Creatures like this should be listed as world-class protected animals!
"I'll lend you my title as winemaker. If you dare to attack any of your young mermaids in the future, I will refuse to trade with them Elixir of Immortality."
"Really?!"
The little mermaids gathered around Dimon excitedly, chattering non-stop.
"Lord Dimon, you are the kindest human being I have ever seen."
"That's great, I don't have to worry anymore~"
"General, you are a good human being!"
What the hell are good humans?
Dimon complained from the bottom of his heart.
Roger looked at Dimon with envy as he was surrounded by a group of little mermaids. He wanted to say, isn't my pirate flag enough?
What a good human being, he is obviously a bad devil!
After a pleasant time, rapid footsteps were heard outside the coffee shop.
Immediately afterwards, there was a conversation.
"Otohime, are you okay?!"
"Mr. Neptune."
"Some people reported to me that there are pirates here. I'm worried that you will come soon."
"I'm fine. Mr. Mr. Dimon and Mr. Roger are both good people."
"What? Dimon!?"
Following a burst of more rapid footsteps, Neptune led many Dragon Palace soldiers to appear outside the private room.
Queen Otohime hurriedly followed and said, "No! Although they are pirates, they are willing to..."
Plop!
Queen Otohime's voice stopped suddenly, and Neptune suddenly knelt at the door.
His actions immediately shocked the soldiers present, and even Otohime was stunned on the spot.
Dimon raised his eyebrows, already hearing Neptune's heart one step ahead.
"Mr. Dimon!"
Neptune looked serious and said in a deep voice, "I have a request. Please listen to me."
"Do you want to ask for a cup of Elixir of Immortality for your father?" Dimon held his cheek with one hand and ate the delicious food brought to his mouth by the Little Mermaid. "There is no free lunch in the world. Are you ready for a cup of Devil Fruit?"
There is no free lunch in the world?
The little mermaids surrounding Dimon blinked and thought, didn't you just agree to lend them the title of winemaker?
It's free~!
"Devil Fruit is ready!"
Neptune said without any nonsense, with a serious face. "Please come with me back to the Dragon Palace. Allow me to entertain you as a distinguished guest. Oh, and Roger, you can come too."
