Neptune angrily sat on the large sofa with his tail crossed.

"Bright, you'd better be polite when talking to Neptune."

Jinbei was a little embarrassed.

He and Neptune are old friends, and he was the boss of Ryugu City's army a long time ago.

Now that the person he supported collided with his old friend, he was really embarrassed.

"I want to dispel the hesitation in King Neptune's heart."

Brett said seriously.

Neptune was startled for a moment.

"Change requires courage."

Bright said calmly, "Will change really bring good results? This is the fear that every changer has when making a decision."

"Is it better to follow tradition? Until there is really no other way out, past experience will always be considered reasonable by people until they hit the wall."

"King Neptune, what I'm saying is," he said with a smile, "whether you want it or not, change is about to begin!"

"..."

Neptune's eyes widened and his beard was trembling.

Jinbei rubbed his forehead helplessly. Although the truth is this, can you put it another way?

After all, the man in front of me is also the king of this country.

"Brett, you kid——"

Neptune finally sighed, "Although he doesn't look much like a fishman, the arrogance in his heart can only be cultivated in the Fishman Street."

"Maybe Jinbei is right——"

He glanced at his old friend, and then nodded heavily, "In this case, I can't be looked down upon by others, Brett, I will answer your request-"

"etc!"

The tea room door was pushed open.

The slender woman came in as light as a cloud.

Her face was full of seriousness.

"Otohime—didn't you go to Gidokuron Square to give a speech?"

Neptune had a huge headache.

"The leftovers were just thrown away..."

Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Dragon Palace Kingdom immediately pursed her lips and said with tears in her eyes, "It's really too much to tell me not to go anymore..."

"So I have said that what happened last time has not passed yet, and the people's impression of human beings has become even worse." Neptune was helpless.

Every time I would go out in high spirits, and then come back dejected, hiding in my room alone and crying.

"That's why I want to go even more!"

The princess, who was originally depressed, suddenly became more motivated, "We can't let the hatred continue to deepen!"

Neptune covered his face with his hands.

Didn't you ask for this?

"Princess Otohime hasn't changed at all."

Jinbei laughed out loud.

"Oh! It's Jinbe!"

The princess greeted Jinbei warmly, "Since you're here, let's have dinner today before leaving. Just in time, you can have a few more drinks with Neptune. Although this guy always looks serious, in fact, in private

I always complain that I have no friends and am lonely."

"Hey, Otohime - there's no need to talk about these things." King Neptune was very embarrassed.

"Hahahaha, that would be disrespectful!" Jinbei laughed loudly.

Am I visiting relatives with Brother Jinbei? This is a strange atmosphere.

Brett twitched the corner of his mouth.

Mermaid Otohime is such an amazing woman.

The moods of Neptune and Jinbei are changing with her.

"Then--"

Otohime turned around and looked at Bright.

A bright smile appeared on her face, "You can feel it. What drives you is love and courage!"

"ah?"

Brett was stunned for a moment.

What are you saying suddenly?

like?

courage?

What is the setting of a romance manga?

Otohime walked over quickly and lightly, grabbed Bright's big hand with both hands, and said with a moved face, "I can't feel hatred or anger in your heart, only love for this island and the courage to change."

"It's so great!" She almost cried, "There are still children like you on the island... Children like you are the future of Fish-Man Island!"

Brett awkwardly took his hand away from hers. The princess was too emotional.

Just like a child.

but--

What a terrifying sight!

Brett sighed in his heart.

Otohime is born with a powerful sense of knowledge and Haki, and she can easily feel the emotions deep in the hearts of others.

She can even use her emotions to infect others and influence their will.

Should I say that it's lucky that she is a woman and a good person?

"So, for the sake of the future of Fish-Man Island, King Neptune, you agree to my request, right?" Bright said.

Neptune's eyes widened.

Amazing, I completely ignored Otohime’s noise!

"Wait a moment!"

The originally crying princess regained her energy and said loudly, "This won't work! It will only block the little communication between us and the human world! The Fish-Man Island will be even further away from the world!"

"If we want to close the distance with the world, in addition to taking the initiative to move closer to us, we can also let the world move closer to us." Bright said calmly, "When the plan to mine seabed ores is gradually implemented, the entire human world will go crazy.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to come into contact with humans.”

"That will only make Fishman Island more coveted!" the princess complained loudly.

Do you also know that Fishman Island is coveted by humans?

"So in order not to be coveted, it doesn't matter if we contact humans. The key is that we have to become strong enough!"

Bright said seriously, "It's so powerful that humans can't hurt us easily! After all, when we are hurt, do we still have to rely on infighting among the top human beings?"

"But wouldn't that intensify the antagonism between the two sides?"

"If I don't follow the mountain, I will follow the mountain! Human beings are all profit-seeking. As long as there are enough interests, they can overcome no matter how serious the opposition is! But the premise is still that we are strong enough!"

"Wow! What a bad statement! This way there is no way to integrate Fish-Man Island into the sea world!"

"Become stronger first, and then talk about other things."

…

"Ah, what a nasty little devil!!"

After a heated exchange of words, the princess went crazy and grabbed Brett's cheek and tore it apart.

Brett slapped her hand away.

What an annoying old aunt.

Jinbei and Neptune looked at each other and could only shake their heads helplessly.

Brett didn't know why, but he got into an argument with Otohime out of nowhere.

It wasn't until after the quarrel that he realized belatedly whether he had been coerced by Otohime's emotions?

Terrible sight!
