Chapter 17: Fishman Tom
"Bad news! The Mist Pirates are back!"
A young shipwright came running in, panic written all over his face as he shouted in alarm.
"What?! That bastard dares to return?!"
Tom, the horned fishman, roared in fury. He grabbed a massive shipbuilding hammer and charged out without hesitation.
"Tom! Don't be reckless! Watch out for Etsumi's mist!" Jelly shouted desperately, coughing up blood. The sight of this made the surrounding shipwrights even more anxious.
...
"Captain Brook, this looks bad! These shipwrights seem to think we're the Mist Pirates!" Shakky observed, her expression turning grim as she noticed the murderous glint in the workers' eyes.
"Etsumi, you bastard! I'll kill you!"
Tom stormed out, swinging his massive hammer straight at the Mist Pirates' newly built ship.
Clang!
A chilling sword aura slashed through the air, blocking Tom's path. Only then did he realize that the figure standing on the deck of the ship was a stranger.
