Accompanying Little White Star while walking in the undersea forest, Kazan and the other two calmly enjoyed the scenery in the undersea forest.
As for the big shark Mekaro, after it entered the underwater forest and vomited out the white star, it just acted like a little shark and ran around in the underwater forest, chasing various small fish, and now it has no idea where it went.
In fact, the underwater forest is not as harmonious and beautiful as they imagined.
From time to time, wreckage of sailboats floating in the currents will appear in the ocean in this undersea forest, and even relatively complete ships can be seen.
This sea forest is also known as the "Ship Cemetery" because many sunken ships in the sea were transported here along with the flow of the tide.
However, Xiao Baixing, who they originally thought should be the most excited, revealed a complicated look in his eyes. He kept scanning the surrounding environment, as if he was always looking for something.
Bai Xing is always surrounded by various large and small fishes, and they cluster around the mermaid princess as if to protect her.
It stands to reason that with Bai Xing's character, she would be able to communicate kindly with the little fish around her, but she didn't.
She just smiled lightly at the small fish around her, and then began to look anxiously at the sea forest again.
"Shirahoshi, what are you looking for?"
Originally, Kazan wasn't actually that curious, but seeing Bai Xing getting more and more anxious and even on the verge of crying, Kazan decided it would be better to ask.
"I'm looking for...Mother's grave..."
What I fear most is sudden concern.
Bai Xing listened to Kazan's question and couldn't control the tears in his eyes. He kept tears as big as his fists while crying to Kazan.
"Look, no wonder you want to come to the Sea Forest so much."
Kazan was stunned for a moment, and finally understood why Little Bai Xing had such a huge obsession with an "ordinary" sea forest.
"Since the death of Queen Mother, I have been staying in the Shell Tower. I was not even able to attend the funeral of Queen Mother. Now I just hope that I can pay my respects to Queen Mother."
There was shame and sadness in Bai Xing's eyes, and tears flowed out of his eyes, and then floated in the sea.
The tears of the mermaid princess are the purest water in the world, and ordinary sea water cannot blend with them.
This girl feels guilty for not being able to attend Otohime's funeral...
Kazan looked at Bai Xing and didn't know what to say to comfort her.
"Mermaids can communicate with the fish in the ocean, right? If that's the case, then why doesn't Shirahoshi try to ask the little fish around you?"
Robin looked at Bai Xing's crying expression thoughtfully, and after a little thought, he immediately came up with a solution.
The people who are most familiar with this sea forest are not the fishmen or mermaids, but the fishes that live in this forest.
If you ask them, this question doesn't seem difficult.
"Um...yeah..."
Bai Xing couldn't react for a moment after hearing Robin's words. She didn't understand why she didn't think of such a simple solution.
For the first time, Xiao Baixing felt how stupid she was.
But now was not the time to think about such things. After receiving Robin's reminder, Bai Xing immediately started communicating with the fish around him.
Bai Xing spoke normally, but those fishes made no sound at all in the eyes of Kazan and the other three, they just stared wide-eyed and blew bubbles.
Can't understand.
They couldn't understand how this was communicated.
But that's not important.
Bai Xing asked around the fish around him. Some small fish shook their heads very intelligently, and some seemed to be hesitating, but none of them could give Bai Xing a definite answer.
"Woo..."
Bai Xing is about to cry again. If these little fishes don't even know about it, wouldn't it be in vain this time?
Do I still have to go back and question my father and brother?
Will he never come out again?
As soon as Bai Xing cried, the surrounding fish quickly became restless, running around in the sea forest, calling for friends.
finally...
"Buzz~"
With a huge buzzing sound, a large whale nearly a hundred meters long slowly swam up to Kazan and his party.
"Eh?! Do you know where the Queen Mother's grave is?!"
Bai Xing looked at the big whale next to her in surprise. Even though the whale was ten times her size, Bai Xing was not afraid at all.
Obviously, I was extremely scared when I first saw Kazan, a guy who was only over three meters tall.
The huge whale did not respond to Bai Xing again, but floated silently to the depths of the sea forest, and Bai Xing, Kazan and others immediately followed.
He kept going deep into the sea forest, and finally stopped under a giant tree.
"Aligadou!"
"Buzz~"
Bai Xing waved vigorously at the big whale that was gradually leaving, then turned around and looked at the tombstone standing quietly under the giant tree.
The giant tree emits star-like light outwards, and the light is so dazzling that it can illuminate the entire Fish-Man Island.
"Is this the Yangshu Eve..."
Monet looked at the huge tree trunk emitting light and murmured a few words.
One of the materials used to make the Caroso of their monster family is Sun Tree Eve.
"Shirahoshi-chan looks a little nervous."
Robin, who was standing next to Monet, looked at Bai Xing's hesitant back in front of him and sighed.
"It doesn't matter, Nissan is here."
"Yeah, that's right."
The two people stared silently at the figure walking towards Bai Xing. Perhaps this figure was not tall compared to Bai Xing, but in the eyes of everyone in the monster family, no figure could bring them a greater sense of security than this figure.
of.
"What's wrong?"
"I..."
When Bai Xing heard the gentle voice beside him, he clenched his little hands tightly and lowered his head, not daring to move forward or speak.
I'm afraid it will disturb Otohime's rest.
"Go, your queen mother must want to see you very much. She must also want to know what her baby Bai Xing has become now."
"Can I?"
"Of course. You are my Kazan's sister. You are extremely cute now. Just go ahead."
"...Um!"
With Kazan's encouragement, Little Baixing waved his fist vigorously to encourage himself. He was instantly confident and slowly approached the tombstone with an uneasy but determined mood.
The Kazan trio did not approach any further, but watched the figure approach the tombstone from a distance.
Bowing, shedding tears and crying continuously.
Shirahoshi worked hard to express all his thoughts about Otohime in the past three years. The grievance and sadness that the little girl had been holding back were completely detonated at this moment.
"Nana, you watch this girl here, I'll take Robin to find the historical text."
Kazan stared at Bai Xing silently, watching the little girl cry non-stop until she fainted from crying, snuggled next to the tombstone and fell asleep before slowly speaking to Monet beside him.
"Eh? Okay."
After hearing this, Monet was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and nodded.
"Does the historical text still exist in this sea forest?"
Robin was slightly surprised after hearing what Kazan said.
However, the two girls also understood at this time why Kazan had to bring Robin to the Forest of the Sea.
"Yes, it's probably in that direction... I have this intuition..."
Kazan frowned and pointed in a certain direction of the Forest of the Sea.
He seemed to know in his heart where the historical text was, and always felt that the historical text was in the direction he was pointing.
"Then go and have a look."
Robin naturally has 100% trust in his Nissan, even though his judgment is based on intuition.
"Well, then I'll leave this place to you, Nana, we will be back as soon as possible."
"good."
After leaving, Kazan and Robin kept heading in the direction Kazan pointed.
The surrounding light was getting weaker and weaker, and they seemed to be heading towards one of the few places on the Fish-Man Island where Sun Tree Eve could not shine.
When they came to an area with only a little light left, they finally saw it.
The square piece was engraved with historical texts in ancient fonts.
When Robin saw this historical text, Kazan frowned before Robin could react.
This historical text... gave him a strange feeling.
...
On the other side, Feng Clay and five other people were showing off their magical powers in the space inside Sugar's door. At the same time, they were escorted by other fishmen from the Dragon Pirates, including Aaron, the sworn brother.
Considering that Jinbei said that the guy might have an informant on Fish-Man Island, they started searching outside without blatantly doing so. If the other party found out that their group was deliberately approaching him, they would probably run away immediately.
In the space inside the door.
Feng Clay transformed into an eagle and ran around high in the sky, scanning every suspicious person within his field of vision.
His ability to communicate with small animals is considered useless in this inner space.
In fact, with his ability to imitate, he doesn't have to worry about being discovered even if he goes out, but there's really no need for that.
Because there is no point even if he goes out, he has never imitated fish or mermaid, so he cannot communicate with fish, and the animals on this fish-man island are basically all marine creatures.
Mr. Tanaka relies on the ability to penetrate the fruit to shuttle between buildings one after another in the space inside the door. These walls are an indestructible 'background' for others and are invincible.
But there is no such setting for him. He can directly use his ability to penetrate fruits to penetrate this 'invincible wall' and search the spaces inside those houses.
Perona directly summoned ten little ghosts for exploration, and they continued to explore this fish-man island to help Feng Clay and Mr. Tanaka clear blind spots. Those places that humans cannot reach require little ghosts.
There is still a little Kerr left to fill the position. So far, her ability has not been used, so the little girl follows the sugar baby obediently.
Originally, other murlocs also hoped to enter areas filled with seawater to help explore. After all, Feng Clay and others could not explore the part inside the seawater.
But when they wanted to go into the water, they were immediately stopped by Sugar.
"If you touch the sea water, the 'ability' exerted on you will disappear immediately, and you will be expelled from the space inside the door immediately."
Granu gave a brief explanation, dispelling the idea of the Dragon Pirates wanting to help explore the inside of the sea.
This kind of exploration has been going on for a while.
"It's not good..."
Feng Clay looked at the border protective shield that could already be seen on Fish-Man Island, and had a guess in his mind, and the possibility of this guess continued to deepen as he thought about it.
"Brother Feng? What's wrong? Is that guy in the sea water?"
Perona flew to Feng Clay's side and looked at him and asked. The other people also gathered at this time and followed Feng Clay's gaze towards the sea outside Fish-Man Island.
"Ah...if nothing else, that guy is probably hiding in the sea outside Fish-Man Island."
"How...how can I find this?"
Granu was confused at this moment. Not to mention that they were a group of landlubbers, but the scope of this sea area was so large that they could not find it.
Really looking for a needle in a haystack.
The other people also frowned, and there was nothing they could do for a while.
"No wonder Jinbei and the people from Ryugu Castle couldn't catch him after searching for so long. So he's outside?"
Aaron, who had already learned what had happened, looked at the world outside Fish-Man Island with a dark face. As a fish-man at the head of Fish-Man Island, he knew very well what the sea outside Fish-Man Island looked like.
If you try to hide outside, it's basically impossible to get caught.
Various complex and rugged coral reefs, active volcanoes that may erupt at any time, and countless shipwrecks...
Every place is an excellent hiding place.
"Tsk..."
Sugar slapped her mouth angrily. They had been busy all morning and were about to fall short.
There is another important factor that also makes Sugar feel irritable, that is, this is one of the few things Kazan taught her to do, and she doesn't want to just return in vain.
"Don't be anxious. This matter cannot be rushed. Let's go back and discuss it first. We know too little about the waters outside Fish-Man Island."
Feng Clay calmed down the irritable Yaomei for a while and decisively led everyone back.
It’s not like I gained nothing at all this time.
At least I know that guy is not on Fishman Island.
"Since there is no way to go out and find that guy...then we can only let the guy take the bait himself."
Feng Clay glanced at the sea outside Fish-Man Island and thought about ways to eliminate the target.
"Then the mermaid princess should be used as bait, but that is also very dangerous. If there is a strong person around her, the other party may not show up. If there is no strong person, it may not be able to block the flying weapons in time."
Aaron walked beside Feng Clay and analyzed with him. His original attitude towards the royal family of Dragon Palace City was a little 'disgusting'.
But now that Bai Xing has become his sister.
Then it has to be discussed separately.
Anyone who touches his sister will die.
"There's no need for Bai Xing to come, I'll be the bait."
