Chapter 914
Crowe wanted Kuro to make a decision, but when he suggested it, Rudolf left.
“You want to buy supplies?”
At this time, after listening to Crowe’s report, Kuro pondered for a moment and said, “A leader for the survival of his people? Not bad, he is strong and has something on him, but how strong he is, we still have to do some experiments.”
Kuro still had some expectations for this Half-Merman, but if he died… it would mean that he was not strong enough.
There is a price to pay for wanting to be Shichibukai.
“Go to David and ask him to do me a favor. If this Joe Rudolph dies, go and investigate the Half-Merman race. If possible, let them join Dressrosa. After all, there are thousands of them and they are also a force,” said Kuro.
Dressrosa is, of course, inclusive and open, and Kuro is not forcing David to do things by consuming favors. This is a good thing for Dressrosa.
If a race that has been ostracized is accepted by others, it will inevitably erupt with strong action and loyalty.
Of course, this is on the premise that this person has a certain qualification.
But there was one thing that Kuro did not understand.
Half-Mermaids seem to be not only human and fish, but also… human and fish.
Kuro remembered that Doflamingo had a subordinate named Derringer, who was a Fighting Fish Half-Merman…
Yes, it was that Douyu by the Dressrosa sea.
This fish and human… How the f*ck did they combine? It’s fine if they are combined, but why can they give birth to a child? This is something that Kuro can’t bear.
Even after staying in this world for more than twenty years and coming to the Grand Line, he was still surprised by some of the ‘wonders’ of this world.
Is there no reproductive isolation?!
It was too chaotic.
… .
Half a month later, somewhere in the New World.
There is a high-lying deserted island in the sea. There is nothing on the island, but at the bottom of the cliff, there is a place full of reefs.
This is a reef, there are both bright reefs and dark reefs, it is a natural ship forbidden area. At the end of these reefs, there is a natural cave, there is nothing outside the cave, only the surface darkness can be seen.
However, at this moment, a small ship was gradually approaching. There was no one on the ship, only a large number of boxes. In front of the ship, a human head moved on the sea and marched forward. As he moved forward, the ship also moved forward.
Rudolf carried the rope and pulled the ship closer to the reef.
When he got close, he came out of the water and fumbled in his arms for a while. He took out a conch and blew a deep horn.
As the horn sounded, a few more lights gradually appeared in the dark cave.
It was the unique light possessed by people with smooth skin under the sun.
A group of figures walked out of the darkness, revealing their figures.
A young man with shark-like fins on his back grinned and looked at Rudolf in the sea in front of him. He bared his sharp teeth and waved, “Boss Rudolf, it’s Boss Rudolf!”
“I’m back, Pecklin, let everyone come and get the things up.” Rudolf smiled and said, “I brought back a lot of supplies.”
“Oh! I’m finally back!”
The Shark Half-Merman named Pecklin shouted excitedly and called everyone to fall into the sea and swim towards the ship. He carried the box on the ship on his head and swam back.
There are both men and women among these Half-Mermaids, such as the stronger Half-Mermaids like Pecklin. There are also some Half-Mermaids who only have the characteristics of a Half-Mermaid but are very thin.
“Boss Rudolf!”
“Boss Rudolf, you’re back!”
Walking into the cave, many Half-Mermaids looked at Rudolf with admiration and greeted him respectfully.
Rudolph had a smile on his face, and the two handlebar mustaches on his lips trembled. He nodded at these Half-Mermaids from time to time and walked into the cave.
The interior of the cave is divided into several floors. At the bottom is a natural square. There is a large pool of water connected to the sea outside. Around it are some houses built with stones. There are some old furniture in the house, which is filled with a damp smell.
There was a flight of steps that had been carved out. It was spiral-shaped and went all the way to the top.
“Boss Rudolf!”
A group of small Half-Mermaids ran over and surrounded the tall Rudolf’s feet. They looked up and asked, “Did you bring any gifts?”
“Of course.”
Rudolf smiled and said, “It’s all in the back. There’s a box with a pink strap. It’s your gift.”
“Oh! Thank you, Boss Rudolph!”
The child cheered and sprayed outside.
“Rudolf…”
At this moment, on the upper level, a man with octopus-like hair looked down and stared at Rudolf.
“Ah… it’s Dagon.”
Rudolf maintained his smile and went up the stairs to the top. He said, “Let’s go in and talk.”
Dagon looked at the cheering children below, pursed his lips, and followed Rudolph into a cave on the upper floor.
That was Rudolph’s habitat. At this time, there were two other people in the cave.
One of them had a serrated nose and was muscular and full of violence, but except for that long nose, the others were like humans.
Sawtooth Shark Half-Merman.
There was another one with a long mouth and teeth like sawteeth. In addition, other places were also like humans.
Crocodile Ray Half-Merman.
The Sawtooth Shark Half-Merman curled his lips and said, “Boss, we need to buy extra gifts. Our material capital is in short supply. Every time those damn human merchants come, they sell them at a high price. We have no money.”
Rudolph smiled. “Taylor, don’t let the children down.”
“Tch, if you ask me, Boss, we should find the Sun Pirates and use their name, as long as those Mermen accept…”
“Tyler!!”
Before Taylor could finish, Dagon glared at him. “Do you know what you are saying, Taylor!”
Tyler pursed his lips and bowed his head. “I’m sorry, Boss Rudolf, Brother Dagon.”
“It’s okay. Taylor doesn’t know some things. It’s normal.”
Rudolph shook his head and still maintained his smile, “Sun Pirates, it’s really a distant memory…”
“Rudolf, how much did it cost this time? I see a lot of supplies.” Dagon interrupted Rudolph’s memory and asked.
“More than 600 million.”
Rudolf said, “I looked for many merchants, but basically no one sold it. In the end, I begged Umit’s men and bought it at a high price.”
The characteristics of Half-Mermaids are not just their fins. Some Half-Mermaids can even hide their fins, but most of them have other characteristics on their skin, which cannot be hidden.
Anyone who lives in the New World can recognize them at a glance.
But what can they do? They live in the New World…
They are Half-Mermaids, and their characteristics are more human. They can’t cross the violent currents under the Red Earth like the Mermen, and they can’t go to [Paradise], nor can they enter the Four Seas.
Perhaps in places where information is not dense, they can live normally.
