Fish-Man Island, Gyoncorde Plaza.
As Sephiroth and the others appeared, quite a few fish-men and mermaids stopped in their tracks.
The appearance of Marines on Fish-Man Island was an extremely rare occurrence, and the residents who did not understand what was happening grew curious.
"Go! I choose you... Vergo!"
As Sephiroth waved his hand, Vergo, with a piece of steak stuck to his face, immediately stepped forward holding a manuscript and proclaimed in an impassioned voice:
"Residents of Fish-Man Island!
Three days ago, an exceptionally vile arson incident occurred in the Holy Land Mariejois. Its instigator was named Fisher Tiger..."
As Vergo continued his announcement, more and more mermaids and fish-men gathered around, forming a dense crowd.
But...
With his Observation Haki, Sephiroth keenly sensed that those people harbored hostility toward them. Some even radiated hatred.
That old bastard Sengoku... Could this mission be his way of using the fish-men to have me buried at sea...?
At this rate, whether we can even leave Fish-Man Island alive and return to the surface is a problem!
At that thought, Sephiroth began cursing furiously in his heart.
"Anyone who provides us with clues regarding Fisher Tiger's whereabouts, or reports him to us, will receive a monetary reward ranging from one hundred thousand to one million Belly once the information is verified!"
After Vergo finished his announcement and returned to the ranks, Sephiroth led the Marine soldiers away from Gyoncorde Plaza.
Actually capture Fisher Tiger...?
He would have to be out of his mind!
Just one speech had already filled the residents of Fish-Man Island with hatred toward them.
If he captured Fisher Tiger, Fish-Man Island's hero, then bringing him back to report in would probably require fighting his way out all the way...
He could forget about the pledge of allegiance Sengoku
