Pirates: I Loaded the Game Panel

A scarlet gleam flashed through Adrian's eyes. He flicked his wrist, shattering each droplet of water that reached him with precise force. At the same time, he raised his left hand, ready to unleash his ghost abilities and end the fight quickly.

Fisher Tiger shifted his stance as well, preparing to use a secret technique of Fish-Man Karate.

Just then, something whistled through the air.

A Sea King's Trident that looked as though it were made of pure gold dropped from above and plunged into the road between the two fighters.

"Stop! Both of you, stop fighting!"

At the sight of that unmistakable golden Sea King's Trident, Fisher Tiger's expression changed abruptly. He had been about to unleash a Fish-Man Karate secret technique and settle things with White Ghost.

As a resident of Fish-Man Island, Fisher Tiger knew exactly what the golden trident represented!

He dropped his Fish-Man Karate stance and bowed toward the direction the trident had come from. "Lord Neptune!"

At the same time, an enormous figure appeared overhead. Riding a Black Whale with a red crown on its head, he drifted slowly toward the Mermaid Cafe.

It was King Neptune of Fish-Man Island, the Great Knight of the Sea!

Neptune was the largest merfolk Adrian had encountered so far, even more powerfully built than most members of the Fish-Man Race.

King Neptune had thick, fluffy orange-red hair and a beard, and wore an ornate golden crown. Flame-like tattoos marked his muscular arms, thick body hair covered his chest, stomach, and forearms, and his lower half was a massive dark-blue fish tail.

Seated atop the Black Whale, King Neptune folded his arms and let out a deep laugh.

"Hohohoho... Fisher Tiger, when did you return to Fish-Man Island? I thought you'd gone exploring in the New World."
