The battle finally ended, and Hody Jones and all the new mermaid pirate crew members were captured and awaiting trial in the kingdom.
Their crimes start with life imprisonment.
Everyone in the Straw Hats is safe and sound. Luffy is very healthy and does not need a blood transfusion to save him.
While the king and princes were sorting out the mess, Franky drove the Sonny and flew everyone towards the outside of the island.
Bai Xing was a little confused as to why everyone left the square in a hurry.
If he had done something so fair and just and stayed in the square, he would definitely be regarded as a hero.
In the eyes of the Straw Hats, hero is not a good word.
In Sauron's concept, a hero is the kind of person who shares his wine with others, and he is unwilling to share his wine, so he does not want to be a hero.
On the ship, Luffy began to recruit Jinbei.
"Let's go on an adventure together, Jinbei!" Luffy warmly invited.
Jinbei smiled happily: "Fishman Island has just experienced a battle. I will join you after I finish explaining the things here."
"Then you mean you agree?" Luffy asked.
"Haha, that's natural. I'm very happy that you can invite me. I will definitely be happy to go to sea with you." Jinbei said.
Originally, Jinbei needed to resolve Big Mom's issues before joining the Straw Hats. However, Fish-Man Island is still Whitebeard's territory, so Jinbei only needs to take care of the next issues on Fish-Man Island before he joins the Straw Hats.
group.
"Everyone will be waiting for you, Jinbei!" Franky said.
"Then what should we do next, go to the new world?" Zoro asked.
Hearing everyone discussing the new world, Bai Xing was so anxious that she almost cried. She still wanted to have a good chat with everyone.
At this moment, the king's guards caught up with him.
The guard held the phone, and King Neptune's voice came from it: "Why did you leave without saying goodbye? I haven't wanted to thank you yet. Let's have a banquet. Let's have a grand banquet!"
"The banquet~ I'll go then!" Luffy's eyes flashed.
"Then why did you run away?" Nami said speechlessly.
Frankie turned the ship's bow and sailed towards the banquet hall.
When the people heard that the Straw Hats were going to attend a banquet, every household brought delicious food to the banquet hall.
As soon as everyone arrived at Dragon Palace City, they heard the guards below shouting "hero, hero", which made everyone feel ashamed.
"Shut up, don't call me a hero, I want to eat meat!" Luffy yelled down.
The banquet hall is very large and is an open-air area where civilians can also participate.
Today's banquet also invited the famous singer Maria Napoleon from Fishman Island to sing a song for everyone.
Trumpets, drums, pianos, cellos, all kinds of musical instruments are available, and beautiful music spreads throughout this sea area.
The moving singing has a fifth element feeling, and the music directly touches Brook's soul.
The stars were singing and the mermaids were dancing, making Sanji dazzled.
Next, the maids came over with wine. Li Xiao picked up a bowl of wine and toasted Sauron, and then drank it all.
"Ah~~good wine!" Zoro said.
"It has a sweet taste and a full aftertaste." Li Xiao said.
After three drinks, a lot of delicious food was served, and then it was time for Luffy's performance.
Li Xiao prefers to eat seafood, such as crabs and shrimps.
The huge crab claws were opened, and there was white and tender crab meat inside. When you took a bite, the deliciousness exploded in your mouth instantly. It was so delicious.
Li Xiao ate five large crab claws in a row, and his belly was bulging.
This was not enough, so Li Xiao picked up the big lobster in front of him, removed the head and tail, and took out the plump shrimp meat from the middle. Just as he was about to throw it into his mouth, Luffy snatched it away and ate it all.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's delicious, it's delicious~" Luffy pouted, looking very much in need of a beating.
Without saying a word, Li Xiao kicked Luffy away with a spiral kick and started peeling shrimps again.
After eating and drinking, the banquet was still going on, and Li Xiao decided to go for a walk.
Not far away, Robin was chatting with King Neptune.
Robin discovered the historical text in the deep sea and looked for Neptune to decipher some of its meaning.
Just as the two of them were chatting, Li Xiao saw a wretched guy, Caribu.
Caribu was eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.
"I wanted to steal the treasure and run away, but I didn't expect to hear something incredible. That mermaid princess turned out to be the ancient weapon Poseidon." Caribu said to himself.
"It turns out that the White Star is an ancient weapon!"
"Yeah, yeah, this is really exciting news." Cary preached.
After saying this, Caribu felt something was wrong and who was talking to him.
When he turned around, he saw that it was Li Xiao, the Thunder King of the Straw Hats.
"Ah!~~~" Caribu was so frightened that his tongue stuck out.
Li Xiao grabbed Caribu's long tongue and tied it into a tight knot.
"How did you unlock the Hailou stone shackles?" Li Xiao asked.
Caribu, whose tongue was robbing him, could not speak smoothly: "That...me..."
"Speak quickly or my tongue will be cut short!"
"I found a locksmith in the town and gave him money to unlock it for me."
"Where are the sea floor stone handcuffs?"
"I had no money, so I gave him the handcuffs."
"You are really smart, a master of free prostitution!"
"Hey, it's a last resort."
"Am I praising you? Hand over all the treasures you collected from the Dragon Palace!" Li Xiao shouted, scaring Caribu.
Caribu looked very panicked, his eyes darting around: "What...what kind of treasure? I don't have anything on me."
"Give you another chance." Li Xiao looked at Caribu fiercely.
Li Xiao's fierce eyes penetrated into the depths of Caribu's soul, and Caribu was instantly frightened.
"That's all the treasure."
Caribu took out a small bag of treasure from his muddy body.
Li Xiao looked at Caribu in confusion: "That's all? Do you want me to cut your body into pieces and take it out?"
"There's more, there's more, I'll take it out right now."
Immediately afterwards, a large amount of treasures sprayed out from Caribu's body.
That was the treasure of the entire Ryugu Castle, at least a truckload worth of it. This guy even packed a portrait of Princess Otohime into it.
Looking at the mountains of treasures in front of him, Li Xiao waved his hand and put them all into his space ring.
Looking at the disappearing treasure, Caribu was dumbfounded. Was it because he was dazzled? That mountain-like treasure suddenly disappeared.
"Is there any more?" Li Xiao asked.
"It's really gone, I, Karibu, swear to God!" Karibu's heart was bleeding at this time, and the treasure he finally plundered was used as someone else's wedding dress.
"Okay, you can go!" Li Xiao waved his hand.
Caribu ran away quickly and disappeared from Li Xiao's sight.
This guy is quite useful. He likes to collect treasures. If you see him once in the future, you will rob him once. You can treat him as a money-giving boy.
