Two-world transaction: I let Nami sign a contract to sell herself

Neptune led Ike, Nami and others through the passage of the Dragon Palace Kingdom.

We arrived at the palace hall, which was expanded by large bubbles and was not as wet as we had imagined.

There, a banquet has been set up.

A wide variety of delicious food and a dazzling array of snacks.

Everything is already there in order.

It can be seen that Neptune is still very sincere.

It makes people's eyes light up.

Tom, the greedy cat, couldn't help but drool and wanted to pounce on it.

"These are the most outstanding delicacies and snacks from our Fishman Island. They may not be as good as those on land, but please enjoy them!"

Seeing this, Neptune did not hesitate and invited everyone to take their seats.

Nami and the other girls were also curious about the special food of Fishman Island, so they all took their seats.

Tom, who had been very greedy for a long time, had already started to eat with relish.

"Then we won't be polite!"

Ike said with a smile.

"However, we can't accept this hospitality for nothing. Let's just treat this guy as a greeting gift."

As he spoke, Ike waved his hand and threw a fishman out, landing in the center of the hall.

"This is, Vander Decken IX?!"

Neptune was stunned by the sudden throwing of the fishman.

I thought someone on the island had offended Ike, but when I saw the appearance of the fishman on the ground, I immediately gritted my teeth.

“It really is that damned guy Vander Decken!!”

The three Shark Star brothers stepped forward quickly, were overjoyed after confirming the situation, and quickly ordered the soldiers to suppress the man.

Neptune was also very excited.

Over the years, Dragon Palace City has put in countless efforts.

But there was no way to catch that Vander Decken.

Whenever they found some trace of the other party and sent people to capture them, the other party would simply hide in the vast deep sea.

Even Jinbei himself had done it several times before.

Following the direction from which the weapon that attacked Princess Shirahoshi came, he led the members of the Sun Pirates into the deep sea to search for the enemy.

But they couldn't find it.

This shows how cunning and difficult to catch this guy is.

"Thank you very much, Lord Ike."

"This gift is very important to us!"

Neptune's eyes were red with excitement.

If we say that he had given such a grand reception before, it was because of Ike's strength.

I don't want Fishman Island to suffer a disaster accidentally.

Now, I express my sincere gratitude.

However, Neptune was also curious about how the other party knew that Dragon Palace City was hunting down Vander Decken.

therefore,

After the banquet, all the ministers left.

Neptune then asked out of his curiosity.

Through the brief conversation at the banquet, he basically understood that Ike and his crew were not the wanton and destructive pirates as the World Government portrayed them to be.

Naturally, the fear in my heart was much less.

Ike did not hide this and stated his intention directly.

"Actually, this time I came to Dragon Palace City, not only because I was invited by King Neptune, but more importantly, I wanted to discuss a deal."

"trade?"

Neptune and Jinbe looked at each other.

Nowadays, everyone on the sea knows everything about the transactions of the "devil merchants".

But most people look at it with malicious eyes.

After all, transactions that take away people's lives or deprive them of their powers don't seem like legitimate transactions at all.

So when Ike proposed it, Neptune's heart was instantly in suspense.

On the other hand, Jinbei, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, was much calmer and took the initiative to ask:

"I wonder what the deal Mr. Ike is talking about?"

"The future of Fishman Island, and the mermaid princess Shirahoshi!"

Ike smiled faintly.

When Neptune and Jinbe heard his answer, their pupils shrank suddenly.

Before I had the chance to ask for the specific content, I was shocked by the next words.

"I'm sure you two have read the news over the past few days, so I'll just speak frankly."

"In fact, that night, I could have wiped out the World Government from the world with my strength, but I didn't do it."

"As for the reasons, Lord Neptune, as the king of a country, should be able to think of some reasons."

Neptune, who was called, frowned and thought for a moment.

"You're worried that without the World Government, there won't be enough time and manpower to establish a new order, and the ocean will fall into chaos."

Ike nodded.

After all, he is the king of a country, so he still has basic political thinking.

"But one thing is certain."

"Within a year or two, the rule of the World Government will surely end, and I will create a new order."

"So what does Lord Ike mean?"

Having said that, Neptune basically understood the so-called 'future of Fishman Island'.

"I need Fishman Island's allegiance. In exchange, Fishman Island can move out of this ten thousand meter deep sea and live openly on the surface."

Having said this, Ike paused, and seeing the two of them fall silent, he continued:

"This is your only chance, so consider it."

"I'm sorry, Lord Ike, this matter is too serious!"

"I need some time to think about it. I can't give you an answer right now."

Neptune took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and didn't reply immediately.

Since the entire Fishman Island was at stake, he couldn't make a decision immediately.

Moreover, Fishman Island is nominally still the sphere of influence of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Before making a decision, Neptune must consult with Whitebeard.

"Of course, as long as Lord Neptune gives me an answer during my stay on Fishman Island."

Ike wasn't surprised by Neptune's answer.

Conquering Fishman Island was just a matter of convenience for him.

Just like when he conquered Hancock, he also took Amazon Lily into his possession.

Ike's real target is still the "Mermaid Princess" Shirahoshi.

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Excellency Ike. So, did you mention Shirahoshi?"

While Neptune answered solemnly, he did not forget another deal.

Since it concerns his daughter, he decided it would be better to ask clearly.

"I want her to join us and be part of the ship."

"this......"

Neptune looked embarrassed.

At this moment, Jinbei suddenly asked:

"Can I ask why Lord Ike recruited Princess Shirahoshi?"

Ike could tell that this was asked on behalf of Neptune.

After all, there was no response to the first transaction, and it would be a bit tactless to reject the second one.

For the sake of Fishman Island, Neptune doesn't want to offend Ike because of this.

As for the latter, he understood Neptune's concerns with just a glance of his Observation Haki.

"you think too much."

"Not to mention that Shirahoshi hasn't mastered the power of the Sea King yet. Even if she did master that power, it wouldn't be of much use to me."

"Aren't a few meteorites dropping down faster than summoning a sea king?"

Ike was speechless.

From the emotions he sensed, he discovered that the reason Neptune hesitated was because he was afraid that he would use Shirahoshi's power.

So a meteorite as big as a newspaper is not as heavy as a sea king, right?
