Pirates: Vice Captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates!

Today, Nine Snake Island is back on track, everything on the island is in good order, and the residents live and work in peace and contentment.

And the Gerard family finally had their own time.

Ever since the battle in the Sabaody Archipelago, they had been busy building Nine Snake Islands and developing various equipment, and had never had the chance to enjoy family life.

Therefore, Gerard decided to embark on a journey with his wife Hancock and daughter Castelita to regain the happiness and warmth they once had.

This proposal was supported by the Empress, who was looking forward to spending a relaxing and enjoyable vacation with Gerald.

The affairs of Nine Snake Island were temporarily handed over to Granny Niu. Although Granny Niu was old, she was experienced and capable, and was fully qualified for the job.

But before leaving, Jellal had to receive Neptune and his family, as well as Jinbe, the commander of the Fishman Island Kingdom army.

Ever since the Nine Snakes Pirates brought Shirahoshi to live on Nine Snake Island more than seven years ago, in order to keep it secret, the Neptune family has not seen their daughter Shirahoshi for a long time.

Shirahoshi is looking forward to the special river port that leads directly to the Water Palace. Although she is very happy living here, she is still a teenage girl after all.

No matter how happy she was on Nine Snake Island, she would always miss her father, mother, and brothers.

"Shirahoshi, I'm sorry for having wronged you over the years. Now that our Nine Snake Island has become stronger, you can meet often in the future and you don't have to hide anything from anyone anymore." Jellal looked up at Shirahoshi and said softly.

"Do not--"

“Master Jellal, Shirahoshi is not wronged, Shirahoshi knows that you are all doing this for my own good.

And it's all over now, isn't it?

"Father and mother can come to visit Bai Xing often in the future. Bai Xing is very happy!" Bai Xing shook her head and said. She is no longer the timid star she used to be.

During these years on Nine Snake Island, she has learned a lot of knowledge and principles. If it weren't for the Nine Snake Island, she might still be the cowardly girl she used to be.

She knew that once her identity was exposed, she might face competition from various major forces.

The empress next to her and other cadres of Nine Snake Island all smiled when they heard Shirahoshi's words. They had tried their best to ensure Shirahoshi's happiness over the years.

Of course, her education was directly handled by Robin and Gerard, who not only ensured her a happy childhood, but also helped her understand many truths.

The power this girl possesses is too strong, and she must be guided how to use it correctly. Now it seems that everything is moving in a good direction.

"They're here!"

"Father, Queen Mother and the others are here!" Bai Xing suddenly shouted excitedly.

Everyone at the port looked up and saw the head of a super-giant sea king floating out of the water. The sea king did not stop until it approached the port.

Immediately afterwards, its huge mouth opened, and Neptune, Princess Otohime, Shirahoshi's three brothers, and Jinbei appeared.

"White Star!"

"My daughter!" Although they hadn't seen each other for seven years, Neptune and Princess Otohime recognized Shirahoshi at a glance.

"Father!"

"Mother!"

"Brother Shark Star! Brother Emperor Star! Brother Cartwheel Star! Boss Jinbei!" Seeing his family whom he hadn't seen for more than seven years, Shirahoshi couldn't help himself at this moment.

She jumped directly into the sea and swam quickly towards Neptune and his family. Neptune and his family also jumped off the sea king and swam towards White Star.

"Uuuuuu——"

"Father, Mother, Shirahoshi misses you so much. Shirahoshi is grown up now, and brother Jellal also said that we can see each other more often in the future."

"Wuwuwu X﹏X" On the sea surface of the port, Shirahoshi hugged her father and mother and cried.

"White Star——"

"Father and mother miss you too. Have you been happy these years?" King Neptune looked at Shirahoshi with heartache.

Shirahashi's three brothers, Shark Star, Emperor Star, and Rollover Star, also surrounded Shirahashi, excitedly looking at their sister whom they hadn't seen for seven years.

Princess Otohime, who was standing by, instantly used her telepathic observation Haki to check Shirahoshi's mood, and she knew Shirahoshi's situation in an instant.

Princess Otohime felt relieved for a moment.

"Uh-huh--"

“Sister Hancock and the others were very kind to Shirahoshi, and Shirahoshi has lived a very happy life these years.

Sometimes I miss my father, mother, and brothers." Bai Xing said tremblingly while rubbing her tearful eyes.

"That's good, it's all over. We can meet often in the future." Neptune said with emotion, blinking his moist eyes.

When Nine Snake Island sent someone to notify them this time, the Neptune family thought they had heard it wrong, because the ocean was currently at its most chaotic!

However, the person who came to inform him said that there was no need to worry about the riots outside, as Nine Snake Island was already capable of dealing with any opponents that were unfavorable to them.

In addition, the family had not seen each other for seven years, and Princess Otohime had often wanted to go out and see Shirahoshi by herself, so they appeared on Nine Snake Island now.

"Your Majesty Neptune, Princess Otohime, let's go ashore first. The Empress and the others are still waiting for us." Jinbei reminded.

"it is good--"

“Go ashore first, otherwise it would be very rude to keep people waiting…” Princess Otohime said as she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Then Shirahoshi led his family to swim towards the port on the other side of the dedicated waterway. Seeing this, the giant sea king slowly returned to the sea.

"Hoohohoho——"

"Lord Gerard, Her Majesty the Empress, it's been a long time!" Neptune happily greeted Empress Gerard and his wife as soon as he came ashore.

"Your Majesty, Lord Jellal, long time no see..." Princess Otohime, the three princes and Jinbe all greeted the Empress and Jellal.

"King Neptune, Princess Otohime, and everyone, although Shirahoshi cannot return to Fishman Island in the future, you can come to Nine Snake Island to meet us at any time." Jellal said with a smile.

He couldn't guarantee it on Fishman Island, but here on Nine Snake Island, with their strength, they could face any invasion.

“Thank you so much, Lord Gerard and Her Majesty the Queen.

To be honest, if Shirahoshi stayed on Fishman Island, with the strength of me and Jinbe, we really cannot guarantee Shirahoshi's safety.

Also, Fishman Island has been looking for an opportunity to express its respect to you for Marijoa's agreement to release the captives!" King Neptune said sincerely.

"That's right, Lord Jellal, Her Majesty the Empress, I am really grateful to you for that incident!" Jinbei also said.

He knew best how difficult it was for Tiger to rescue his compatriots on Fishman Island.

Seven years ago, due to the conspiracy of Nine Snake Island and the pressure of public opinion, the captured Fishman Island compatriots were released by the World Government and returned to Fishman Island.

"Well, after all, we have our own interests in these matters, so there's no need to thank us.

Let's go in. Shirahoshi's Water Palace has prepared a lot of food. Let's hold a welcome banquet for everyone first!" Gerard stopped Neptune and said with thanks.

"Hoo ho ho ho..."

"Banquet? I'm really looking forward to it." The Neptune family were all smiling at this time.

They are truly grateful for everything Nine Snake Island has done for them.
