The further the pirate ship went into the sea, the lower the visibility became, and soon there was no sunlight at all.
It was pitch black all around, but you could hear the sounds of many fish swimming around the boat.
Many pirate ships heading to Fish-Man Island had their coating ripped off by fish, thus perishing at the bottom of the sea.
However, Kazu was not afraid of these. A layer of spatial power enveloped the entire pirate ship, and the surrounding fish could not even touch the coating and were repelled by the spatial power.
Ten thousand meters isn't a long distance; at full speed, the outline of Fish-Man Island came into view in just a few minutes.
"It was actually sunny underwater, which was truly amazing."
Although Kazu already knew it would be like this, the shock of seeing it in person was completely different from that of reading the comics.
There were dozens of Sea Kings in the giant bubble of the Ryugu Palace. Kazu unleashed a Conqueror's Haki attack, and the Sea Kings seemed to have seen some terrifying existence, frantically fleeing in all directions.
Kazu used a Space Teleportation with his pirate ship to enter the interior of the Ryugu Palace.
After the pirate ship successfully entered the Ryugu Palace, the coating was absorbed by the air bubbles.
There seems to be an entrance to the Ryugu Palace here, but Kazu doesn't need to take the normal route.
Kazu remembered that the Poneglyph seemed to be in the Sea Forest, but he didn't know the way.
Along the way, Kazu, relying on his handsome appearance, asked several mermaid ladies for directions, and eventually he actually learned the approximate location of the Sea Forest.
Fish-Man Island is also home to many humans, and mermaids and Fish-Man are not surprised by them. Shops, restaurants, cafes and other places will warmly welcome guests.
There are quite a few people who hate humans, but Kazu just hasn't encountered them yet.
However, to be fair, Kazu was only curious about the so-called mermaid; he really wasn't interested in the fish tail.
Human girls' fair and delicate legs are still the most beautiful; looking up from below, the more you look, the more excited you get.
I wish I could transform into a cave explorer right then and there.
As Kazu ventured deeper, the number of Fish-Man or mermaids dwindled. Just moments before, they had occasionally spotted a few humans, but now they couldn't see a single one.
They mostly visit the bustling streets of Fish-Man Island; who would willingly venture into the woods?
Having quickened his pace and activated his Space Perception, Kazu found the two Poneglyph in just a few minutes.
"It's still there!"
In the original story, when Gol D. Roger arrived at the Sea Forest Fish-Man Island, there were two stone tablets.
One is Joy Boy Boy's confession to the Little Mermaid, and the other is Red Road Poneglyph.
However, by the time Luffy and arrived at Fish-Man Island, the Red Road Poneglyph marker had long since disappeared, leaving only a dispensable stone tablet with a confession.
Now it seems quite possible that Red-Hair took it.
Although Fish-Man Island was his Pops's territory, he had no interest in becoming the Pirate King.
Besides, if he really took it, wouldn't the old man have told his own son?
Given how much the old man dotes on him, Kazu probably wouldn't even need to ask.
The old man would then playfully hand over the rubbings to Kazu.
After analyzing the case thoroughly, Shanks is the most likely suspect.
Although Shanks didn't land on the Laugh Tale, Laugh Tale, he didn't miss a single adventure along the way.
He knew better than anyone where the four Red Road Poneglyph stone tablets were located.
Rayleigh and the others were all retired and had no interest in the Red Road Poneglyph stone tablet.
Only Red-Hair, who is still active on the high seas and has high hopes for Luffy becoming the Pirate King, has the strength, the motivation, and knows the exact location.
Actually, Kazu's understandable. It's probably because he saw Luffy eat the Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika and become the Chosen One.
Red-Hair has staked everything on Luffy; he absolutely will not allow anyone else to become the Pirate King before Luffy.
With so many pirates on the high seas, what should we do?
The simplest way is to take away one of the Road Poneglyph stone markers. Others can only find a maximum of three stone markers, so they won't be able to find Laugh Tale that way.
Once Luffy grows up and finds the three Red Road Poneglyph, Red-Hair can give him the fourth one, helping him become the Pirate King and unravel the mysteries of this world.
"Fine, I'll take over the show from now on."
With a wave of his hand, Kazu directly stored the Red Road Poneglyph stone tablet into his Independent Space.
Want to become the Pirate King?
Without Her Kazi's approval, you're just dreaming.
Simply leave a Space Mark on Fish-Man Island, and it will be convenient to come back whenever you want.
They then returned to the captain's cabin of the Divine Dragon.
