Chapter 88: Encounter on Sky Island
Among the many iconic figures from Fishman Island, Mio was certain—it was Tiger.
But how could Fisher Tiger be on Sky Island?
This surprised Mio at first, but after some thought, he understood. Before being enslaved by the Celestial Dragons, Tiger had been an adventurer—one who traveled across the seas, exploring the world's wonders. It made sense that Sky Island wouldn't be an exception. Judging by the current timeline, Tiger likely hadn't yet become a slave of the Celestial Dragons.
At this moment, Tiger was fighting with Ganfor. Yet, it was clear that Ganfor was no match for him. Within minutes, Tiger landed a solid punch to Ganfor's abdomen, knocking the Sky Knight to the ground and rendering him unable to fight further.
"I have no hostility," Tiger said in a deep, steady voice as he stood over Ganfor. "I came to Sky Island by accident, just to explore its wonders. But if you want to continue fighting, I will accompany you." He assumed a Fishman Karate stance, showing he was ready but not eager for more combat.
Ganfor gritted his teeth and struggled to his feet. "I believe you, man from the Blue Sea. Someone who could defeat me and still spare my life... that kind of man doesn't lie."
From the distance, Mio watched the battle's end. Seeing the two settle things, he stepped out from his hiding place and approached them with calm, steady steps.
The sound of his approach caused both Tiger and Ganfor to turn and look.
Upon seeing Mio and his group, Ganfor's eyes narrowed. "Another group from the Blue Sea," he said warily. "This is the territory of Sky Island. You're not welcome here. Leave at once."
Tiger, on the other hand, looked at Mio with curiosity. Unlike most fishmen, he didn't carry an instinctive hatred for humans. He remained calm but observant. There was something oddly familiar about Mio.
Suddenly, Tiger's eyes lit up with recognition. "It's you... the Black Crow Pirates!"
