Three Favors, Deduct One (2)
Remember: say 06 Хīashυ6ом to avoid losing it
White clouds stretched as far as the eye could see, and a colossal creature, flapping its giant wings and accompanied by a series of booming sounds, left a white trail before quickly disappearing into the distance.
"My God"
Very happy, Shirahoshi lay in the water tank, her big, blinking eyes looking at Ye Chen with delight.
This experience terrified her, but her fear of Ye Chen was surprisingly overshadowed by her survival.
"Greetings, God Majesty."
In the water tank next to them, Camie and Pappag swallowed hard and greeted him in return.
They all knew about God, though not very well, but they had learned about him through the newspapers. Most importantly, it was rumored on Fish-Man Island that the Queen and Jinbe had a good relationship with God.
Besides, they still know the minimum of courtesy given that I saved them this time.
"You're so big now!"
Looking at Shirahoshi, Ye Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his face expressionless.
"Yes, thank God for saving me."
Pouting, Shirahoshi reached out and wiped away her tears.
"Why didn't you stay in the Ryugu Palace? How did you get caught?"
It's been a long time since we last met. Although Shirahoshi has grown up quite a bit, she's still a girl at heart. Most importantly, this Merfolk hasn't forgotten him.
"That one" lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong, and tears began to well up in her eyes on her tender face.
Ye Chen frowned as he looked at Shirahoshi, who cried at the drop of a hat.
"Never mind."
Seeing this situation, Ye Chen didn't need to think to guess that these three guys must have been playing around and then got kidnapped.
Ye Chen had high expectations for Shirahoshi, especially since, with his Observation Haki, Ye Chen could sense a special power within her seemingly fragile body.
Meanwhile, Marineford.
"Damn it, that bastard!"
He slammed his hand on the desk, his Sengoku bristling and eyes wide with anger.
It's shocking that two more Celestial Dragons have died on the Sabaody Archipelago, and the culprit is that guy again.
All in all, the number of Celestial Dragons who died at that guy's hands is almost more than the number one palm strike.
"They appeared on the Sabaody Archipelago right after fighting Kaido."
Below, the crane looked at the message, lost in thought.
"Brubrubru"
At that moment, the Den Den Mushi on Sengoku's desk suddenly rang.
"The Sengoku, I need an explanation."
The voice was thick with accusation, and it also sounded somewhat angry.
"This was an accident. Nobody expected that traitor to appear in the Sabaody Archipelago. I had no information whatsoever!"
Looking at Sengoku's face, his tone was somewhat respectful.
"Two more World Nobles have died; this must not be tolerated."
"I've already sent Kizaru to the Sabaody Archipelago."
No one could understand the turmoil of the Sengoku at that moment. In any case, the sea was once again stirred up with waves.
"Hey! Hey! Really? God is too powerful!"
"They just finished fighting Four Emperors, and then went to the Sabaody Archipelago to kill Celestial Dragons — World Nobles!"
"God, is this a prelude to attacking the navy? The Celestial Dragons are just a warning sign!"
People from all over the world, from all walks of life, looked at the reports in their hands and exclaimed in amazement.
Celestial Dragons, what kind of beings are they? They are World Nobles, able to command Marine Admiral at any time, yet they have died at the hands of God.
Isn't God afraid of retaliation from the World Government?
Such astonishment only appeared in the lower strata of society, while the major powers disregarded it.
Celestial Dragons may seem intimidating, but that's only in the eyes of those without strength. If you were to try fighting Four Emperors or Revolutionary Army, they would be killed in a heartbeat.
However, the World Government had to react to this matter, so the bounty on God Ye Chen jumped from the original 2 billion to 3 billion.
This caused a huge uproar.
The Sacred Pirates once reached the point where they had bounties on their hands.
Captain God Ye Chen, with a bounty of 3 billion.
First mate Thunder God Enel, has a bounty of 3.35 billion, which is 50 million more than the captain's.
The combined bounty for the captain and first mate alone is a staggering 6 billion. What does that even mean?
It has clearly reached the point where it is wanted by one of the Four Emperors.
However, these bounties are somewhat inflated, because if the Four Emperors did what God did, their bounties would probably skyrocket.
Yes, at the level of the Four Emperors, bounties are no longer that important, because their mere reputation is enough to deter countless people.
The increase in Ye Chen's bounty this time is also a statement made by the World Government, after all, it was World Nobles who died.
In the royal palace council hall of the Kingdom, on the God's Island, a video call is underway.
Sitting on the throne, Ye Chen crossed his legs and calmly looked at the scene in mid-air. Below, Shirahoshi, Camie, and Pappag all had their heads down.
"Thank God for saving the woman."
In the video, Neptune adopts a very humble posture, and many ministers and Shirahoshi's three brothers can be seen beside him.
"I promised Otohime three favors, so this time, I'll automatically remove one."
As soon as Ye Chen spoke, Neptune, far away on Fish-Man Island, gritted his teeth.
Thank God.
Neptune bowed respectfully, looking at Shirahoshi with her head bowed in the hall with a mixture of disappointment and anger, but ultimately refrained from uttering a curse.
Neptune must have been heartbroken that such a favor was wasted.
Over the years, with the Sacred Pirates' growing fame and the great deeds God has performed, Neptune has kept these three favors as his trump cards, never using them unless absolutely necessary.
But now, such an important favor has been easily squandered because of Shirahoshi's playfulness.
In Neptune's eyes, Ye Chen is now on par with the Four Emperors, only without the title.
Leaving aside the Sacred Pirates, the mere mention of the mysterious country rumored on the high seas was enough to make Neptune hold these three favors firmly in his hands.
These three favors will be a huge help when Fish-Man Island faces a major threat; they are something his wife worked very hard to earn.
Ignoring Neptune's respectful attitude, Ye Chen crossed his legs and looked at Shirahoshi, who had her head down, deep in thought.
For a moment, the atmosphere became heavy.
"Kalifa, send someone to take them back."
Finally, Ye Chen relaxed his brow and gave up.
"Yes."
Kalifa, who was handling official business with Reiju nearby, stopped writing and nodded.
Finally, Ye Chen took a deep look at Shirahoshi before his figure slowly faded away.
As Ye Chen disappeared, Sharkstar and the others on the communication channel all breathed a sigh of relief, except for Neptune, who fell into thought.
He had just clearly observed that God was making a decision, but ultimately gave up. Neptune was even 100% certain that this decision was related to Shirahoshi.
Did he find out Shirahoshi's identity?
For a moment, Neptune was overwhelmed with a jumble of emotions: worry, vigilance, and wariness, leaving him in a state of utter turmoil.
