"Shrimp hahahaha"
"I must say, your battle plan is indeed excellent," Hody nodded approvingly. "If it were any other merfolk here, they would have been easily outmaneuvered by you."
After saying that, Hody paused for a moment, then continued with a cold laugh, "But unfortunately... you're facing me, who has ingested a large amount of lethal drugs!"
Faced with someone so powerful, a mere human with special abilities has no chance of escaping!
Shrimp, hahaha, how awful!
Seeing Hody laughing uncontrollably, Mary's face turned extremely ugly.
If the seawater hadn't weakened her wind power, how could this guy have possibly dodged his attack?!
Then, Mary began to think about how to solve the current situation.
"Right now I need to grab Luffy with one hand, so I can't use Wind Loss..." Merry murmured to herself.
"In that case... let's attack him with the wind!"
Although it's unknown whether this move can defeat Hody, as long as it can send the opponent flying with the wind, it's the same!
That way, she can bring Luffy into Noah's Ark!
With that thought in mind, Mary raised her right hand toward Hody, clearly intending to use her ability to attack him.
"What, you want to attack me with some weird abilities?"
Hody, who nimbly moved past Merry, said coldly, "You think I'd let you hit me?"
Stop joking, okay?!
Knowing that the opponent's attack power is relatively strong, he would never allow the opponent to hit him!
After a cold laugh, Hody picked up the harpoon again.
"Damn it, I refuse to believe I can't hit you!" Mary thought to herself. "Water Tornado!"
"boom!!"
The next moment, a terrifying wind force erupted from Merry's hands.
Then, the force began to spin on Meryl's side, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a horizontal deep-sea tornado!
"boom!!"
After unleashing her attack, Melly immediately withdrew her arm and turned to rush upwards.
The next moment, "Pfft!"
"ah!!!"
"Gurgle..."
A sharp harpoon pierced the arm that Merry was using to grab Luffy, causing Merry to scream in pain. This also caused the girl to uncontrollably swallow a mouthful of seawater.
But Mary knew she would die if she continued like this, so she forced herself to shut her mouth.
Then, she looked down at her arm that had been punched through, and her eyes gradually became moist.
"pain.
If she hadn't removed the wind force below in time... this arm would have been torn off by now.
Thinking about this, Mary felt like crying.
But when she thought about her current situation, Mei forced herself to hold back.
After all... Luffy can only rely on her now!
"Mei... gurgle gurgle gurgle."

Upon seeing Merry's appearance, Luffy instinctively called out, but because they were in the ocean, he only managed to utter one word before uncontrollably starting to drink seawater.
After drinking a large amount of seawater, Luffy's eyes gradually began to roll back.
"Shrimp hahahaha"
Upon seeing this, Hody immediately burst into laughter.
"So, humans are the lowest of the low," Hody laughed. "Faced with the ocean, all you can do is utter a few desperate cries!"
"Shrimp, hahaha... Waaah..."
Mary ignored the noisy guy and, enduring the excruciating pain, looked down at Luffy.
If she hadn't insisted on not letting go of Luffy, he would have been swept away by the whirlpool by now...
"Damn it, what am I supposed to do now?!"
Hody's eyes lit up immediately, as if he had discovered something interesting.
"Looks like you really care about this straw hat kid," Hody grinned. "How about we play a fun game?"
Upon hearing Hody's words, Mary immediately looked up at him, her expression turning somewhat fierce.
They looked as if they wanted to tear a piece of flesh off Hody.
Unfortunately... this look had no effect on Hordy at all; instead, it gave him a cute but fierce feeling.
"Little one, glaring at me won't do any good," Hody said. "Because I'm in control now."
"Shrimp hahahaha"
hateful.
Meli, trembling, looked up at Noah's Ark, which was now starting to distance itself from them again.
What should I do?
What should I do?!
"Listen up, little one," Hody said, stroking his chin as he gripped the harpoon. "If you're willing to put Straw Hat Boy down, I'll let you go up to Noah's Ark, how about that?"
"That way you can survive for now."
"Hahaha~"
After laughing, Hody lowered his head and continued, "Of course, you also have a second option."
"Keep getting caught by my harpoon, then... figure out a way to escape with Straw Hat Boy!"
"But in that case, you'll immediately face my attack!"
After saying that, Hody paused for a moment, then his eyes immediately turned fierce as he said, "Once you make that choice, I will tear you to pieces without hesitation!"
Perhaps fearing that Meryl wouldn't believe him, Hody continued, "Little one, in my eyes, there's no such thing as a cub having special privileges!"
"Anyone who poses a threat will be killed!"
"So I advise you to choose the first one."
"Hahaha!"
At the end, Hody burst into laughter again, clearly enjoying the feeling of putting pressure on others.
"Make a decision for me, you human girl!"
"Shrimp hahahaha"
But as he laughed, Hody realized something was wrong. Why was the human girl's eyes not changing at all?
Shouldn't she be grateful that she has the option to live?
She has a chance to survive if she gives up on the Straw Hat Boy!
Even though it's only temporary, it's still much better than being killed by yourself right away, isn't it!
But why is that?
At this moment, Hody was filled with doubt and couldn't understand why Mary would react this way.
"Kid, don't you want to live?"
"partner!"
In the deep sea, Meili uttered those two words with difficulty, and at the same time raised two fingers to make her choice.
Then, she glared fiercely at Hody, her expression seeming to say, "You want my life?"
"Then you can have it!"
"But to ask me to abandon my comrades and live on... I'd rather die!"
For her, and for her Straw Hat Pirates crewmates, the word "crewmate"... was never a choice. Then, Merry raised her uninjured hand and aimed it at Hody, clearly intending to use her ability to attack.
Even if this attack might tear her arm off, she would do it!
She would rather Luffy live than lose her own arm!
"Is this your answer...?"
Hody, who saw through Mary's thoughts, fell silent. He simply couldn't understand why this little human girl had such courage.
Isn't she afraid of dying?
She looks only a few years old... so why does she have such willpower?
For a moment, Hody even felt a sense of confusion.
After dispelling these strange thoughts, Hody's expression turned fierce.
"In that case... then you should just die!"
"bring it on!
Seeing Hody's fierce gaze, Mary's eyes also turned fierce; she was ready to fight to the death.
But before she could make a move, she suddenly saw a figure rushing towards her from a distance.
That's... Shirahoshi's brother!
As if she understood what the other party was going to do, Meili immediately abandoned her previous idea and began to gather another attack.
At that moment, Shark Star rushed to Hody's side, his eyes fierce as he raised his sword and slashed at Hody.
"Die, Hody!!"
Hody: ? ? ?
Hody was immediately filled with questions when he saw Shark Star suddenly appear in front of him.
"Why is this guy here?" Hody wondered. "I beat him up like that... how can he still move?"
Although he didn't know what was going on, Hody wasn't going to take the beating for nothing.
So he pulled the harpoon out of Mary's arm to block it.
The next moment...
"Clang!"
The harpoon and the longsword made a crisp sound when they touched.
"Hody!"
"Shark Star..."
Looking at the merman glaring at him, Hody smirked and said, "You piece of trash dare to come looking for trouble with me? Aren't you afraid..."
Before he could finish speaking, he felt a change in the flow of water around him.
Then, as if remembering something, Hody turned to look at Meryl.
"Little thing, you..."
"Vortex Storm!"
"boom!!!"
A terrifying force of wind swirled the seawater and then slammed into Hody, sending him flying towards Noah's Ark in the distance!
"Whoosh"
"Ugh!!!"
Hody coughed up a mouthful of blood after being hit, and his expression became extremely ferocious.
Ultimately, the man was struck by Meryl's power and sent flying to the edge of Noah's Ark, where he was then embedded in the wood.
After doing this, Meili's face turned pale due to blood loss, and her strength gradually diminished.
Even so, she did not let go of Luffy's hand.
"What a terrifying little girl..." Shark Star looked at Melly with lingering fear, never expecting this little girl to be so terrifying.
If the attack hadn't been directed at him, he would have been sent flying by now.
"Help... gurgle gurgle gurgle..."
Merry, pointing at Luffy, only managed to utter this one sentence before she began uncontrollably drinking seawater, clearly reaching her limit.
Seeing this, Shark Star immediately took out his Bubble Coral and rushed over.
After capturing both of them, Shark Star used Bubble Coral to create a bubble, which provided Luffy and Merry with a space to survive.
"Cough cough..."
Once she could breathe again, Mary coughed up the water she had inhaled and then began to inhale large gulps of oxygen.
After taking a few breaths, Merry turned around and used her undamaged arm to press down on Luffy, forcing the water out of his stomach.
"puff!"
"Cough cough, he's... he's alive..."
Luffy coughed violently after spitting out the water, while also showing an expression of relief at surviving a close call.
I've survived, at least.
Then, he looked at Mary with a worried expression and said, "Mary, are you alright?"
"I'm fine."
Mary, clutching the wound on her arm, shook her head, then looked up at the sky and said, "But... that guy might still be alive."
Her attacks would be significantly weaker in the ocean, so the opponent should still be alive.
"It's alright, I'm just glad you're okay," Luffy said. "I'll take care of him."
"But your wound..."
"She shouldn't die," Melly said, shaking her head.
Despite what Merry said, Luffy still felt incredibly angry.
"That bastard Hody, right..."
Looking up at Luffy in the air, his eyes suddenly turned incredibly angry, as if he wanted to tear Hody apart alive!
"I won't let him get away with this!"
Hody actually dared that bastard to hurt Mary... He'll definitely make that bastard pay!
Just then, Merry coughed lightly, which made Luffy tense up again.
"Merry, you..."
Upon hearing this, Meili glanced down at the huge bloody hole in her arm, then shook her head and said, "I told you, I'm not going to die anytime soon."
Although she was bleeding, she wouldn't die anytime soon.
Luffy paused for a moment upon hearing this. Was this a question of whether he would die temporarily?
If we don't treat the wound on Meili's arm in time, this little girl might die!
Thinking of this, Luffy's eyes became somewhat panicked.
However, Luffy quickly calmed down because he thought of Xiyan!
"I know how to help you!"
"What are you going to do?" Shark Star asked.
"Um?"
Upon hearing the sound, Luffy turned around and saw the giant shark-fish man.
"You are... Cowardly Star's brother?"
Shark Star: ? ? ?
Timid Star?
Are you talking about your own sister?
While my younger sister is indeed timid, she doesn't deserve to be called "Cowardly Star"...
After letting out a silent sigh, Shark Star said, "If you're talking about Shirahoshi, then it is indeed me."
"My name is Shark Star."
After speaking, Shark Star paused for a moment, then asked again, "What do you plan to do?"
"Go find Cowardly Star and west Yan from the front."
Luffy glanced at Merry's bleeding wound and said, "Let Xiyan treat Merry."
Meili will die if she keeps bleeding, so... he must go find Xiyan first!
"I understand, now find..."
Shark Star froze at this point, then stared at Luffy in shock and exclaimed, "Who did you say?!"
Because of extreme shock, Shark Star's voice rose many times, and his eyes bulged out of their sockets.
"west Yan".
"west Yan?!"
"Is this the Xi Yan I know?!" Shark Star asked quickly, "Isn't he already dead?!"
The newspaper clearly stated that the Blood-Eyed Ninja was dead, so why is Straw Hat Luffy...? Could it be that the man isn't dead?
Thinking of this, a hint of wild joy appeared in Shark Star's eyes.
If that man is really here, then Fishman Island is saved!
"Hey, Luffy!"
Clutching her wound, Merry stared blankly at Luffy and said, "Why did you just blurt out that Xiyan is still alive?!"
Didn't we agree to keep it a secret?
"Is there anything more important than your life?!" Luffy shouted. "Besides... Xi Yan also said that he could tell others about his affairs if necessary."
"And Brother Xing is none other than Cowardly Xing's brother."
"So I think it's okay to tell him."
If even the cowardly star knows that west Yan is still alive, then it's okay if his brother knows too, right?
Besides, he has no other choice now, does he?
Upon hearing this, Merry pursed her lips, but she didn't say anything more, which could be considered as tacitly agreeing with what Luffy had said.
Shark Star exclaimed excitedly, "So, that man really is still alive, right?!"
"Is that right?"
At this moment, Shark Star was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.
After all, to him and to Fishman Island, Xiyan, this human, was a hero!
"That's right, west Yan is still alive." Luffy nodded and said, "However, west Yan said that this matter needs to be kept secret from others."
"So...can you keep this secret for us?"
"this.."
Shark Star swallowed hard, suppressing his excitement, and said, "Then can I tell my father about this?"
"He would be very happy if he knew."
After all... the heroes of Fishman Island are still alive!
"Then go ask Xiyan yourself," Luffy said. "I'm only telling you now because I have no other choice."
Otherwise, I wouldn't have said it.
After saying that, Luffy picked up Merry and carefully pressed his hand against her wound, trying to stop the bleeding.
Seeing this, Shark Star opened his mouth, wanting to say that doing so might cause the wound to become infected.
But thinking about it carefully, it seems there's no other way to stop the little girl's bleeding, so... let's leave it at that for now.
As for infection?
Only those who survive are eligible to be infected!
"Hold on tight, Straw Hat!" Shark Star placed the two on his back and said, "I'll get to the bow as fast as I can!"
Although they are currently in the area below the stern, about half the distance of Fishman Island from the bow, but...
At his speed, he can definitely get there in a few minutes!
So... little girl, please don't die!
Otherwise... he wouldn't know how to face that hero from Fishman Island!
"Please, brother Xing!"
"profound!"
"Target roar roar roar roar"
"Shirahoshi, your anxious look is so captivating!" Vander Deikun, who appeared on the deck carrying a pile of things, looked at Shirahoshi excitedly and said, "I love it so much!"
"Target roar roar roar roar"
"I'll give you one more chance. If you're willing to marry me, I'll spare your life. How about it?"
"Target hohohohoho!"
"How about it? Think about it!"
At this moment, Vander Deiken's face was full of excitement, looking completely confident that he had Shirahoshi under his thumb.
"I'm sorry," Shirahoshi cried out with her eyes closed, struggling to swim. "I still stand by what I said, you're not my type!"
"Click..."
Once again deeply hurt, Vander Deikun clutched his chest and knelt on the ground, his entire body turning ashen.
At that moment, he felt a deep sense of despair.
A moment later, he suddenly raised his head and said, "In that case... then you should die!"
Enraged, Vander Deikun grabbed a large number of weapons and hurled them at Shirahoshi without mercy.
Unfortunately... all of these weapons were knocked away by west Yan!
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Damn humans!"
Looking at west Yan, who was standing on Bai Xing and staring at him, Vander Deiken felt both angry and jealous.
He was angry that this bastard dared to get in his way, and jealous that he could stand on Shirahoshi's back.
"Damn it... I should be the one standing there!" Vander Deiken roared inwardly.
"Are you done?" west Yan said calmly, looking at Vander Deiken.
Vander Deiken paused for a moment, then frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
What do you mean by "Are you done talking?"
"Now that you've finished speaking, you can shut up."
As soon as he finished speaking, west Yan took off the sunglasses he was wearing, revealing his Mangekyou Sharingan.
Vander Deiken: !!
The moment he saw west Yan's eyes, Vander Deiken was so shocked that his eyes bulged out, his face filled with disbelief.
If he wasn't mistaken... those were the eyes of the Blood-Eyed Ninja!
"Damn it, isn't he already dead?!"
This man was clearly killed by the people of the human kingdom two years ago, so why is he still alive and has even come to Fishman Island...?
Wait... could it be that this man didn't die two years ago?
Otherwise, there's no way to explain why the other party would be here.
Then, a feeling of despair arose in Vander Deiken's heart.
He... was no match for this man.
The next moment, Vander Deiken's eyes lost their light, and he was completely controlled by west Yan.
"Um?"
Shirahoshi glanced back at Vander Deiken, paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Big brother, what did you do?"
Why did Vander Deikun suddenly become motionless, as if he were being controlled?
"I've got him under control." Xi Yan turned to Bai Xing and smiled, "Now he can neither hear us nor launch any further attacks."
If it weren't for Vander Deiken running into the cabin to get weapons, he wouldn't have given the other guy the chance to wake up now.
"Lord Xiyan, you can actually control others?"
Bai Xing looked at west Yan in surprise, clearly not expecting the other party to have such an ability. This was too amazing!
"Of course," west Yan said with a chuckle. "Controlling this kind of trash is a very easy thing for me."
Vander Deiken was ultimately just a minor character, not worth mentioning.
Then, west Yan looked up at the enormous Noah's Ark and said, "Bai Xing, if you don't swim faster, Noah's Ark will crash into you."
Bai Xing was startled upon hearing this, and then turned and swam away into the distance, saying, "Lord Xi Yan, didn't you already control Vander Deiken? Why is this thing still hurtling towards me?"
"I did control him, that's true, but if I kill him now or remove his powers, Noah's Ark will crash directly onto the Fishman Island below," west Yan explained. "So I can't do anything to him right now."
"So that's how it is..."
Having understood what west Yan meant, Bai Xing nodded, then raised her head and shouted, "Lord Xi Yan, I will do my best to swim to the far end!"
"profound"
Just then, two figures darted over from a distance, their expressions increasingly shocked.
"Um?
west Yan, noticing them, paused for a moment, then said in surprise, "Aren't these Bai Xing's second and third brothers...?"
How did these two end up here?
"Shirahoshi!"
"Who...who did you just say?" Huang Xing asked Bai Xing excitedly.
Fanchexing looked at Baixing excitedly, waiting for her answer.
"this.
Seeing the expectant looks in their eyes, Bai Xing hesitated. Should she tell her two older brothers about this?
After thinking for a moment, Bai Xing looked at Xi Yan, intending to ask him for an answer.
west Yan nodded upon seeing this, meaning it was acceptable.
These two people are Shirahoshi's family, so there's no problem letting them know.
After receiving west Yan's confirmation, Bai Xing raised her head and said, "Brother Huang Xing, Brother Fan Che Xing, you heard me right, I did indeed just say Lord Xi Yan."
"Then...does that mean..."
The two brothers trembled, their eyes filled with disbelief as they looked at Xiyan.
Could this man be the hero who saved their fish-man race two years ago in Mary Geoise, Otsutsuki Saien?!
"Hello." west Yan, who had reactivated his Mangekyou Sharingan, looked at Huang Xing and Fan Che Xing with a smile and said, "Let's get to know each other again. I am west Yan."
"It really is you!"
After receiving an affirmative answer, Huangxing and Fanchexing became extremely excited, and their bodies trembled even more violently.
The hero of Fishman Island... is really still alive!
Then, Fanchexing excitedly said, "Why didn't you tell us you were still alive?"
If they had known that west Yan was still alive, how could they have made such a blunder?
"That's right, Lord Xiyan," Huang Xing said excitedly. "If you had told us sooner, our misunderstanding could have been cleared up."
After all... they believed in west Yan's character!
"It's a long story," west Yan said with a hint of helplessness. "In short... I faked my death two years ago, so the World Government doesn't know I'm still alive."
"Is this why you've been hiding the fact that you're still alive?"
You'll understand immediately the difference between "Emperor Star" and "Crash Star".
This is indeed a very effective way to avoid trouble from the world government.
After all... that way no one will bother them!
Thinking of this, the two said in unison, "Don't worry, we will keep your secret!"
"Okay." west Yan nodded with a smile.
"Then could you tell my father and my brother Shark Star?" Huang Xing asked again.
"no problem."
west Yan nodded and said, "Telling your family is fine, and I trust you can keep this a secret."
"Thank you for your trust," Huang Xing said, bowing slightly.
What an understanding man he is...
"You're welcome."
"We have so much to say to you," said Fanchexing, wiping away tears from the corners of her eyes.
Their mother would be very happy to meet someone like Lord Xiyan.
After all, this man did what her mother had always hoped for!
Thinking of this, even more tears welled up in Fanchexing's eyes.
"Let's talk about this after we've resolved this matter." Turning to look at west Yan behind him, he narrowed his eyes and said, "The most urgent task is to deal with this Noah's Ark."
If this problem is not solved, not only will Fishman Island be destroyed, but my companions will also be in danger.
So... he absolutely cannot let this thing fall!
"That's right."
Fanchexing finally realized what was happening, then wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "The most important thing now is to solve this problem."
Otherwise, they wouldn't have had the chance to sit down and chat.
"Where is that Vander Deiken?" Huang Xing asked.
"I've got him under control," west Yan said, pointing in the direction of Noah's Ark. "He's on the deck of that ship now."
Upon hearing this, Huang Xing turned around and glanced at Noah's Ark, immediately spotting the man whose eyes had lost their luster.
"They actually managed to bring it under control..."
As expected of Lord Xiyan, you are truly amazing!
At this moment, Huang Xing was filled with countless emotions.
"Now that Vander Deikun is under control, things are much easier," said Fanchexing, looking into the distance. "All we need to do now is move Noah's Ark away, and everything will be fine."
As long as Noah's Ark can be moved, Fishman Island will be fine!
"That's right."
Huang Xing glanced down at the deep-sea boulder constantly rubbing against Noah's Ark and said, "However, we can't let this ship suffer any damage." Xi Yan looked surprised and said, "This ship is already in such a state, and you still plan to preserve it?"
This can't be opened anymore, right?
"Our father said this ship has a very important significance and must not be destroyed," Huang Xing said. "So we absolutely cannot let it crash into the seabed."
As he spoke, Huang Xing glanced at the direction Bai Xing had gone.
Continuing forward would indeed allow Noah's Ark to escape the skies above Fishman Island, but it would also lead to the ship's complete destruction at the bottom of the sea.
so...
"Special significance..."
west Yan looked at the enormous warship, which was half the size of Fishman Island, and said, "You're not planning to use this ship to go to the surface, are you?"
Based on Jinbe's previous descriptions, Queen Otohime has always hoped that the fish-men of Fishman Island could live on the surface.
However, relocating an entire clan is not an easy task; at the very least, a large enough ship would be required.
And this Noah's Ark... is the perfect size!
"I don't know." Huang Xing shook his head and said, "Our father never told us whether this ship was used to relocate the fish-men. He only said that this ship was very important."
"Is that so...?"
west Yan stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then looked at Bai Xing and said, "In that case, let's go upstream first."
"Once we're away from those obstacles, we'll swim sideways again."
"good!"
