Chapter 1301 Agreement

"Master Liyuan, do you... like it?" Bai Xing looked at Guan Liyuan with some embarrassment.

At this time, a "huge shell necklace" hung on Guan Liyuan's neck...

That's right, this is Bai Xing's "return gift" to Guan Liyuan, which she made with her own hands - the fish-people don't have any taboos about the use of shellfish materials.

It's just... Bai Xing has tried to make the shell necklace as small as possible. Each shell is only as big as his thumbnail. But Guan Liyuan, who is 3.5 meters tall and is very tall among humans, wears it around his neck. There is still something like Sha Wujing's painting style - each one has its own skull size!

"Well, I like it very much. I have wanted to try this style of painting for a long time." Guan Liyuan nodded.

After all, Guan Liyuan estimated that if he showed any embarrassment at all, Bai Xing would definitely cry to him every minute.

"Master Liyuan...are you leaving so soon?" Bai Xing said aggrievedly.

"Yes, because there is something very important..."

Before Guan Liyuan finished speaking, he heard Bai Xing's cry coming over him: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...it's because you hate me...I'm sorry..."

Bai Xing's own character is relatively cowardly, and his special experiences make him extremely sensitive and delicate.

"No, no, of course not, otherwise...how could I help you get rid of Daken?" Guan Liyuan said.

"Really, really? So Mr. Liyuan drove away Mr. Vander Daken because he liked me?" Bai Xing stopped crying immediately, sobbing and blushing.

Well, although my nerves are slender, I am easy to coax...

"Yes, that's it!" Guan Liyuan said righteously.

Although I feel that Bai Xing's statement is a bit inconsistent, but...under the current situation, does Guan Liyuan still have any choice? We can't let her continue crying, right?

"I see...but...Mr. Liyuan...I...will...have...four more years..." Bai Xing murmured.

In Bai Xing's mind, Guan Liyuan had already driven away another suitor, Vander Deken, just to pursue himself!

At the same time, Bai Xing did not say anything like "You are not my type" to Guan Liyuan, but wanted to express implicitly that he was still underage.

"Four years? It doesn't take that long. If everything goes well, we will meet again soon." Guan Liyuan thought Bai Xing wanted to tell him that we would meet again in four years.

"No, it doesn't need four years? Is this..." Bai Xing's eyes began to draw circles.

"Don't you want to see the outside world and see the sun, forests and snow with your own eyes?" Guan Liyuan asked.

When Bai Xing heard this, he was diverted from the previous topic and asked curiously: "Eh? Can I do that? My father and brothers all said that it is very dangerous outside, and there are many... bad people like Lord Vander Duncan. people……"

"Don't worry, just drive away all those bad guys. One day... the era will come when humans and fish people can truly coexist as equals, and this day will come true in our generation!" Guan Liyuan said.

Well, if Luffy were here, it might feel strange - why do you claim to be my uncle, but you are still the same generation as the fourteen-year-old Princess Shirahoshi? How is it calculated?

"My mother's dream back then was not illusory, right? But Lord Tiger..." Bai Xing murmured.

"Your mother is right, Hero Tiger is also right, and not all humans are wrong, but just being 'right' is of no use, the 'wrong' guy must be driven away." Guan Liyuan said solemnly .

From Pierre, Guan Liyuan also learned about the true thoughts of the fish-men on the fish-men.

As far as most fishmen are concerned, "deep down" in their hearts they want to enjoy the real sunshine on the sea. Many of the older fishmen were influenced by Princess Otohime, while most of the new generation of fishmen were influenced by Princess Otohime. Because after seeing human ships coming out of the sea, I am curious about all kinds of novel things.

But this is just "deep"!

In fact, the older fishmen were all seriously injured by humans because of what happened to Tiger and Princess Otohime. The "deep" yearns for the sea, but in fact there are layers of "warning" and "wariness" on top of it. "Exclusion"...

As for the younger fishmen... they have grown up with the words "Disobedient children will be captured by humans" and "Don't talk to strange humans, otherwise they will be eaten".

Therefore, the ordinary residents of Fish-Man Island are in this critical "swing period"!

In Guan Liyuan's view, the goals of Tiger and Otohime are not contradictory. It seems that Tiger originally wanted to break away from mankind, but his actual actions were not like this. It can even be said that Fish-Man Island has grown since the Age of Discovery. , "Strive for peaceful coexistence" is divided into three stages.

One is that Tiger formed the Sun Pirates, nominally clamoring to "break with humanity", but in fact Tiger never killed any enemies, with the purpose of liberation and freedom, and when liberating slaves, he also treated various races. Treat everyone equally...

The three sisters of Nine Snake Island and Kerla of the Revolutionary Army...were all rescued when Tiger made trouble with Mariejoia.

Rather than saying that Tiger wants to break with mankind, it is better to say that he expects a kind of deterrent peaceful coexistence, but the purpose is not clear.

Later, Princess Otohime used her personality charm to persuade the people on Fishman Island, and also helped Saint Musgarud who was living on Fishman Island, and even influenced the idiot Tianlong. One member.

Before Princess Otohime was killed by Hody Jones, it seemed that she was closer to success than Tiger - she had already lobbied and convinced the Tianlong people, and at the same time, she had accumulated many signatures from the people on the island...

What Princess Otohime pursues is undoubtedly the most gentle and top-down hope for human beings to fully accept the peaceful coexistence of fish people. Although it is positive, it is too idealistic.

As for Princess Otohime's death, although Neptune was nominally inheriting his deceased wife's will, the third stage under Neptune's leadership... can be said to be a negative period!

It only warmly received the humans who came to Fish-Man Island, and at the same time encouraged the powerful fish-men to go to sea, so as to make humans realize that the fish-men living on the seabed are not some barbaric people, nor are they "harmony with fish". "It's almost the same", but a civilized country like the countries on the ground.

Passively counteracting human beings' prejudice against fishmen, and occasionally promoting the world on the sea on the island - but because of the existence of the slave-catching team, Neptune did not promote the sea as a safe place.

If both Tiger and Otohime are still alive at this time, Tiger will use the banner of racial equality to intimidate the world government and win over people, and at the same time, Otohime will do positive propaganda internally to eliminate the wariness of the fish people, and then With Neptune's "display", maybe it won't be long before the fishmen can come to the sea.

But there is no "if"!

The deaths of Tiger and Otohime have almost interrupted the peaceful coexistence between the fishmen and humans, and... because the fishmen do not understand the real cause of their death, they even "pull" the fishman island further into the deep sea.

It is precisely because of this that Neptune did not give Guan Liyuan too a clear answer before. He only promised that no matter what the circumstances, Fishman Island would not take the initiative to become an enemy of the revolutionary army. As for whether to cooperate, Neptune could not Give an exact statement!

Guan Liyuan could see that Neptune was not worried about sacrifice, but that he had not yet decided whether to fight again, and at the same time he was not sure whether it was right to move everyone to the sea...

Guan Liyuan did not force this, but only told Neptune the results of the investigation into the cause of Princess Otohime's death - how to reveal it later with complete evidence is Neptune's business.

"Mr. Liyuan, then...it's a deal! If one day, the queen mother's ideal comes true on Fish-Man Island, we will meet again!" Bai Xing said, using such a thick and long little finger to hit it In front of Guan Liyuan.

"Well, it's agreed." Guan Liyuan said and touched her with his little finger.
