Uchiha Xin walked straight into the tower.
Neptune opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't dare to stop him.
The scene of Uchiha Xin immobilizing Noah just now kept replaying in his mind.
If the other party truly intends to harm Shirahoshi, the entire Ryugu Kingdom has no right to stop them.
Moreover, Uchiha Xin himself could command Super Sea Kings.
As for Shirahoshi's power as Poseidon, it meant nothing to him.
It was very quiet Hard-Shell Tower.
A huge bed was placed in the center of the room.
Whether it's tables, chairs, or other furnishings, their sizes far exceed those of things used by humans.
As soon as Uchiha Xin entered the room, a soft gasp came from beside the bed.
Shirahoshi was just hiding behind the door, checking what was happening outside.
Upon discovering that Uchiha Xin had entered, she quickly swam back to bed and covered most of her body with the blanket.
She is nearly eleven meters tall.
Even when curled up in bed, it is still much larger than the average person.
Only half of Shirahoshi's face was visible.
"Who... who are you?"
Her voice was very soft.
His eyes, however, remained fixed on Uchiha Xin.
Uchiha Xin did not approach any further.
He knew that Shirahoshi had lived in the Hard-Shell Tower for eight years.
Vander Deiken IX kept throwing weapons at this spot.
Anyone who gets close to her could be implicated as long as she leaves the Hard-Shell Tower.
Her long-term confinement meant she rarely had contact with outsiders.
They are also much less courageous than the average person.
Uchiha Xin slowed his voice.
" Uchiha Xin."
Shirahoshi blinked.
"Yu... Chiha Shin?"
She repeated it softly.
This name is very different from the names of the residents of Fish-Man Island.
Shirahoshi read it again.
" Uchiha... Xin."
"What a strange name."
What's strange about it?
Seeing that he wasn't angry, Shirahoshi became a little bolder.
"I've never heard of that name before."
"Is his surname Uchiha and his given name Shin?"
"Good."
"Which Xin is Xin?"
Uchiha Xin paused for a moment.
"Xin composed of three golds."
Shirahoshi had never seen that character before.
But seeing three pieces of gold together still made her eyes widen.
"Three golds?"
"Isn't there a lot of gold there?"
"Almost."
Shirahoshi chuckled softly.
She quickly remembered that the other person was a stranger, and hurriedly hid her face behind the blanket.
Uchiha Xin looked at her.
"Vander Deikun IX is dead."
Shirahoshi stopped moving.
"Who?"
"The people who have been throwing weapons at the Hard-Shell Tower all these years."
Shirahoshi peeked her head out from behind the blanket.
"Van der Deikun is dead?"
"Um."
He won't throw things at you again.
You don't need to stay here anymore.
Shirahoshi did not immediately believe it.
For the past eight years, she has faced weapons flying in from afar every day.
When I first moved into the Hard-Shell Tower, I always thought I would be able to leave in a few days.
A few days can turn into several months.
A few months turned into years.
She was already used to keeping her door closed.
Now that someone has suddenly told her she can go out, she's afraid to move.
Shirahoshi gripped the corner of the blanket tightly.
"Are there really no more weapons coming?"
"Won't."
"But my father said that Vander Decken's abilities will always be chasing after me."
"His abilities have been eliminated by me."
Shirahoshi couldn't understand how to remove the ability.
She only understood one thing.
I feel free now.
She looked toward the entrance to the Hard-Shell Tower.
Light from outside shone into the room through the crack in the door.
Shirahoshi wanted to get closer, but her body didn't move.
Uchiha Xin asked:
"Want to go out?"
Shirahoshi nodded immediately.
"Think."
"I haven't left here in a long time."
"My father said it's dangerous outside."
My brothers won't let me go out either.
Her voice trailed off as she finished speaking.
I want to see the Sea Forest.
"I also want to visit the place where my mother is buried."
"But if I go out, the incoming weapons might hurt others."
Uchiha Xin said directly:
"Then come out with me."
Shirahoshi's eyes lit up.
She lifted the covers, and her fishtail dangled off the bed.
But she only moved slightly before stopping again.
Is it really possible?
"You can ask Neptune."
No sooner had Uchiha Xin finished speaking than Neptune rushed in from outside the tower.
He kept an eye on what was happening in the room the whole time.
Upon hearing Uchiha Xin mention himself, he immediately spoke.
" Shirahoshi."
" Uchiha Lord Xin is right."
"Vander Deikun IX is dead."
Noah was also stopped by the adults.
"You will never be tracked by weapons again."
Shirahoshi looked at Neptune.
"Father, can I really leave the Hard-Shell Tower?"
Neptune nodded vigorously.
"Can."
You no longer need to hide here.
Shirahoshi was stunned for a moment.
Tears welled up in her eyes quickly.
She raised her hand and wiped it.
But the tears kept flowing.
Seeing her crying, Neptune rushed over.
" Shirahoshi, what's wrong?"
"Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
Shirahoshi shook her head while shedding tears.
"No."
I'm happy.
"I can finally go out."
She looked at the open tower gate, then at Uchiha Xin standing not far away.
"Did Lord Uchiha save me?"
Neptune corrected him immediately.
"It's Uchiha Lord Xin."
"The adults' names cannot be omitted."
Shirahoshi nodded quickly.
"Sorry."
" Uchiha Lord Xin."
"Thank you."
Uchiha Xin looked at her face covered in tears.
Just as I remembered.
timid.
She cries easily.
They also tend to trust others easily.
Shirahoshi is only fourteen years old.
There are still two years until the Straw Hat Pirates arrives at Fish-Man Island.
He originally thought that Shirahoshi would be even more naive at this time.
When I actually saw it, it wasn't much different from what I experienced two years later.
Confined to the Hard-Shell Tower for many years, she had even less contact with the outside world.
Shirahoshi wiped away her tears and got out of bed.
Her body was too big.
Even just its fish tail was much taller than Uchiha Xin's entire body.
But she didn't pay attention to the difference in their body sizes.
" Uchiha Lord Xin."
"Can you take me out?"
"Can."
Shirahoshi immediately moved closer to him.
A massive fish tail swept across the ground.
She accidentally bumped the table next to the bed, making a dull thud.
Neptune's expression changed.
" Shirahoshi!"
He saw Shirahoshi rushing straight towards Uchiha Xin, and his fishtail tensed up in anxiety.
The Shirahoshi is nearly eleven meters tall.
Their strength far surpasses that of ordinary humans.
She rarely interacts with outsiders and has no idea how much distance to keep.
If one were to accidentally bump into Uchiha Xin, it would be considered rude to his face.
Neptune was about to speak up to stop him.
Uchiha Xin had already raised his hand.
The Eye of God shone with a purple-gold light.
The Power of the Limit instantly enveloped Shirahoshi's entire body.
Shirahoshi felt a sudden lightness in her body.
Her gaze began to rapidly descend.
The enormous bed kept rising.
The tables and chairs also seemed to grow larger and larger in front of us.
No.
It's not that the things in the room got bigger.
Her body is shrinking.
Before Shirahoshi could react, her size had already shrunk to about 1.6 meters.
The originally wide fish tail was also shrunk.
Her face and body proportions were adjusted accordingly, completely transforming her into the appearance of a fourteen-year-old girl.
