Ah Long's teeth were clenched tightly, the murderous intent in his eyes growing more intense. Even though the man in front of him was his partner, he couldn't bear the fact that the Heavenly Celestial Dragon killed Fishmen as if they were fish, as if being killed by them was a blessing for the Fishman Race...
"You want to use my compatriots to please the World Nobles!"
Ah Long pierced through the intentions of Colonel Nezumi with a single statement, fully aware that his partner intended to use the lives of the Fishmen to curry favor with the World Nobles!
There wasn't a strong Navy presence in the East Sea, and Colonel Nezumi was the only partner who could possibly acquire Fishmen from him as a Navy representative!
This bastard who wants to please the Heavenly Celestial Dragon!
Fury surging in his heart, Ah Long didn't wait for Colonel Nezumi to counter. He suddenly opened his mouth wide and bit down on Colonel Nezumi's head, his sharp teeth snapping shut, killing the Navy Colonel in a single bite!
Anyway...
I have to avoid the Heavenly Celestial Dragon for a while!
"Ah?"
A group of Navy Soldiers following Colonel Nezumi were dumbfounded!
Why did Ah Long suddenly fly into a rage and kill someone? They even thought Colonel Nezumi was reasonable; they were dealing with the World Nobles Heavenly Celestial Dragon. If Ah Long refused to hand over a few Fishmen for their amusement, did he intend to resist them?
"I've long wanted to kill the World Nobles, and you want me to sacrifice my compatriots to please them..."
The murderous intent flashed in Ah Long's eyes, his gaze falling on the Navy Soldiers following Colonel Nezumi. He issued a direct order: "Kill these Navy soldiers, pack up and leave immediately; we can't let anyone discover our whereabouts!"
"I've long wanted to act!"
Each Fishman immediately pounced on the Navy Soldiers!
Some Fishmen even swam toward the Navy Warship!
The entire Arlong Kingdom was instantly filled with bloodshed, dismembered limbs everywhere. Colonel Nezumi's loyal soldiers were torn to pieces!
On the warship.
Each Navy Soldier was quickly killed by the Fishmen.
A third-class Navy Soldier hid in the ship's dining room, clutching his old-style firearm, seemingly too scared to join the battle. He even prepared a glass of pear juice for himself: "These dregs in the Navy and the evil Pirates are fighting, who knows who will win..."
Just then, a Fishman spotted Akihara Kagura hiding in the dining room, charging forward without hesitation, brandishing the blade to stab Akihara Kagura!
Bang!
A dull gunshot!
The Fishman didn't even see Akihara Kagura's movement before his head was shot through. This Fishman, who had killed many humans, never expected to die by gunfire!
After killing the Fishman, Akihara Kagura leisurely finished his glass of pear juice, and his body suddenly disappeared. He was just a regular third-class Navy Soldier, incapable of dealing with the Arlong Pirates, and had to quietly wait for the right opportunity.
The promotion in this world's Navy...
Usually requires a bit of luck.
Like a Pirate suddenly showing up to help; Akihara Kagura, this righteous third-class Navy Soldier, didn't mind using a Pirate for help, at least it wouldn't arouse the Navy's upper echelons' suspicion.
The battle on the warship soon ended.
This Navy branch fleet lacked combat power, able to oppress ordinary civilians alongside Colonel Nezumi, but when fighting a race as physically strong as the Fishmen, they were utterly crushed, and the warship quickly filled with blood…
However...
Three Fishmen died.
This made Ah Long's temper flare, but he had no time to waste and had to leave this kingdom he built before the Heavenly Celestial Dragon arrived.
At that moment, an orange-haired girl returned to the Arlong Kingdom, surprised by the Fishmen packing up and the corpses of Navy Soldiers everywhere. Hatred and fear flashed in her eyes.
This is...
What happened?
Why did these mischievous Fishmen suddenly kill so many Navy Soldiers?
Moreover...
It seemed like they were leaving?
She merely went on a trip, following a Straw Hat and a moss-headed idiot to defeat Clown Buggy with a fifteen million bounty, then brought along a lying long-nosed to defeat a cunning Pirate named Kuro…
It was quite an enjoyable journey.
However, just when she relaxed and returned here, the Arlong Pirates' Fishmen were packing up and getting ready to leave?
"Nami."
When Ah Long saw the orange-haired girl appear in front of him, he immediately ordered in a deep voice, "Pack your things, bring all the sea charts you drew, we're leaving..."
"You're leaving here?"
Joy flashed in Nami's eyes.
But she quickly suppressed that joy, her expression turning serious, as if deeply worried about the Arlong Pirates' situation.
"Ah Long, did something happen to you guys?"
"It's not you guys, it's us."
Ah Long narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Nami, then suddenly broke out into a sinister smile: "You're the surveyor I've always had my eye on. Didn't you want to draw a map of the entire world since you were a child? I'm taking you away from here to draw even more maps..."
"..."
Nami involuntarily took a step back.
"Don't think about escaping..."
