One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 297: Chapter 297: Xia Li joins the Promise Pirates



"Well, Xia Li, go and see who you want to take with you to the Wuji Sea. I'll wait for you here." Li Yuan gently touched Xia Li's little head and said.

Little girl Xia Li is the same age as Roz and Asuna, so they should be able to play together in the future.

Many of the fish-man ladies in the cafe heard what Li Yuan said to Xia Li.

In the past, when the Promise Pirates came to Fish-Man Island to pick up fish-men to live in the Promise Sea, they always gave priority to adult mermaids with fighting power, and then others.

But many fishmen who want to go to the Wuji Sea cannot get in line, and the fishmen lady who is working in the cafe now is one of those who cannot get in line.

So they quickly found Xia Li, hoping to use Xia Li's connections to go to the Wuji Sea together.

Moreover, they had heard before that Xia Li enjoyed the treatment of a captain, which was a salary of two million berries every month. They had a good relationship with Xia Li before, so they just happened to be able to include this little rich lady Xia Li on the list.

Xia Li is simple-minded and is happy to take her sisters with her so that she won't be alone. But what was a pity for Charlie was that when she went to look for her brother Aaron, wanting him to go to the Promise Sea with her, Aaron just wanted to follow Tiger Boss on his adventure and was not willing to go to the Promise Sea with Charlie.

Aaron did not stop his sister from going to the Wuji Sea. He knew that the Wuji Sea was a good place for Xia Li. It was very safe there, and life was also very good, better than in Fishman Street.

And before that, Tiger also took a group of fishmen to the Wuji Sea, met his fellow fishmen living there, and confirmed that the Wuji Pirates were sincere in helping Fish-Man Island. Finally, after Tiger came back, he announced this matter.

With Tiger, a fishman with great reputation, as a guarantee, the residents of Fishman Island have more trust in the Wuji Pirates!

"Lord Li Yuan, we are ready!"

A few hours later, Xia Li and many other merman ladies came over with large and small bags of things, all with great anticipation on their faces.

"Okay, let's go now."

"Kumas, arrange the boat. I want to go back to the Wuji Sea."

Li Yuan said this and led Xia Li and the others out of the cafe.

"Yes, Captain!"

After hearing what Li Yuan said, Kumasi immediately went to arrange the boats.

On Fishman Island, their Infinite Pirate Group has many ships docked here in case of emergency.

"Mr. Li Yuan, we have already prepared a banquet at the Dragon Palace. Why don't we go there and have a gathering?"

After Li Yuan brought Xia Li and the others out of Fishman Street, Princess Yi Ji came over with several of her children.

When she knew that Li Yuan had arrived at Fishman Island, she ran over immediately.

After all, Li Yuan has done a favor for Fishman Island. As the host, she naturally has to come personally to invite them, build good relationships, and strengthen the connections and friendship between them and the Wuji Pirate Group so that the people of Fishman Island can live a better life.

"Princess Otohime, thank you for your help."

"Oh, this is Xia Li, she's a master at taking up space. I'm planning to invite her to join the Promise Pirates. These are Xia Li's friends. I'll take them to the Dragon Palace for a banquet."

Originally, Li Yuan was planning to turn down the banquet, but when he saw Xia Li looking at Yi Ji with anticipation, Li Yuan changed his mind.

In Xia Li's eyes, Ryugu is the most prosperous and most beautiful place in Fishman Island, so she naturally wants to go and see it.

Anyway, Li Yuan has nothing to do right now, so there's nothing wrong with accompanying Xia Li to take a look.

"Of course, no problem, little Charlie, you're so cute, come here, let me hug you!"

When Yiji saw the lovely Xia Li following behind Li Yuan, her heart was suddenly filled with maternal love and she immediately hugged Xia Li in her arms.

"Hello, sister Princess!"

Charlie said timidly.

"Hey, little Charlie is so good."

Otohime said softly.

Afterwards, the group went to the Dragon Palace. Neptune arranged everything for the banquet in the Dragon Palace. When Li Yuan arrived, all kinds of delicious food had already been placed on the table.

"Your Excellency Li Yuan, welcome to the Dragon Palace!"

When Neptune saw Li Yuan coming outside the door, he immediately came to greet him.

Since the protection of the Promise Pirates, the number of human traffickers on Fishman Island has been decreasing.

As a result, Fishman Island has become increasingly safer, the people's living standards have improved a lot, and the population pressure on Fishman Island has been reduced a lot.

In general, Fishman Island is getting better, richer, and more peaceful at a pace visible to the naked eye.

"Hahahahaha, Mr. Neptune, we meet again!"

Li Yuan took his seat with a smile, then asked Xia Li to sit next to him and began to enjoy the delicacies of Dragon Palace.

"Wow, it's delicious!"

It was the first time for Xia Li to eat food from Dragon Palace. The food here was much more delicious than the food in Fishman Street.

"If it tastes good, eat more. There is still a lot of food here."

Li Yuan smiled.

"Uh-huh!"

After hearing what Li Yuan said, Xia Li immediately started eating, her little mouth bulging

with food.

"Mr. Li Yuan, I have something I want to ask you for help."

Neptune asked this question later in the meal.

"You say."

Li Yuan said casually.

"Well, could you please ask the officers or captains who are helping to defend Fishman Island

to help us train a group of fishmen? This will also reduce some of the pressure on the WujiNôv(el)B\\jnn

Pirates to defend Fishman Island."

Neptune said.

"Sure, that's no problem. I'll just tell them when the time comes."

"But you also know that training depends on resources and talent. It doesn't mean that you

will become stronger after training."

Li Yuan said while eating.

Li Yuan knew exactly what Neptune was thinking. He just wanted to increase the strength of

Fishman Island.

As for training, we can just let some captains or officers take the time to give some guidance.

As for whether you can become stronger, it all depends on your personal talent, hard work and self-awareness.

The Promise Pirate Group has hundreds of thousands of members and a well-established

training system, but only a few of them can become cadres.

After all, if you want to become stronger, it depends on talent and resources.

"Thank you, Mr. Li Yuan. I toast to you!"

Seeing that Li Yuan agreed, Neptune was very happy.

Both parties enjoyed the banquet very much. After the banquet, Li Yuan took Xia Li and the

others to the port and returned to the Wuji Sea on a boat.

"Wow, what a beautiful island! Is this where the fishmen live in the Wuji Sea?"

When they arrived at the Flower Island in the Wuji Sea, Xia Li looked at the sea of flowers

below and her eyes suddenly lit up in surprise.

Although they had seen various photos and videos before, nothing was as shocking as seeing

it with their own eyes.

"Yes, this is Flower Island, the second home of the fishmen. You can live here from now on."

Li Yuan touched Xia Li's little head and said.

"Then Lord Li Yuan, will you come to see me often in the future?"

Charlie asked expectantly.

"Of course I will. Now I will take Charlie to see where I live. Charlie can also come to visit me

in the future."

Li Yuan said.

After arranging the group of fish-men ladies on the Flower Island, Li Yuan brought Xia Li to

the General's Mansion of Wano Country, and just time saw Asuna coming back from

outside, holding a small cage in her hand, with a beautiful butterfly locked in it.

"Daddy, hug me!!"

When Asuna saw Li Yuan coming back, she immediately put the cage on the ground, then

trotted over and jumped directly into Li Yuan's arms, forcing Li Yuan to hold the little guy.

"Dad, why haven't I seen you at home for a while?"

Asuna asked curiously after lying in Li Yuan's arms for a while.

"Dad is busy, isn't he? Why isn't Ross catching butterflies with Asuna?"

Li Yuan rubbed Asuna's hair lovingly.

"Is this Lord Li Yuan's daughter? I am so lucky to have a father like Lord Li Yuan!"

Xia Li, who was standing next to her, looked at Asuna in Li Yuan's arms with curiosity, and couldn't help but feel envious.

"Dad, Ares and Ross went out to play secretly. They didn't take Asuna with them. Asuna is so

pitiful. No one plays with her!!"

When Asuna heard Li Yuan ask this, a pitiful expression suddenly appeared on her face, as if she had suffered some great injustice.

But Li Yuan knew that his little daughter was a smart kid, and that this pitiful expression was

just an act.

"Asuna, since you have no one to play with, let Daddy find you a playmate. Look, this is the

fishman Xiali."

After listening to Asuna's words, Li Yuan put Asuna down and placed her in front of Xia Li. The

two five-year-old girls looked at each other curiously.

"My name is Xia Li, and I just came here from Fishman Island with Lord Li Yuan."

Xia Li was still a little shy at this time, and her voice lacked confidence when she spoke.

"My name is Asuna, can you play with me?"

Asuna looked at Xia Li happily and said.

It was the first time she saw a fish-man. Although she knew about mermaids before, she had

never left Wano Country, so all she had seen were fish-men.

Those fishmen were all ugly, not at all in line with Asuna's aesthetic taste.

But when I saw Charlie, I felt that she was very beautiful.

"What are you playing?"

Charlie asked curiously.

"Come on, I'll take you there, and you'll know soon!"

As she said that, Asuna took Xia Li's little hand and ran out together, ignoring even Li Yuan,

the father. "Husband, this is the first time I see you bringing outsiders back." Tianyue Shizou said naturally while holding Li Yuan's arm.

"Xia Li has a very special ability to occupy a lot of things, which is very important to us."

"She's getting along well with Asuna now, so let her live in the General's Mansion. If she

wants to go to Flower Island, arrange for someone to take her there and make sure to protect

her."

Li Yuan explained.
