One Piece: My Descendants All Become Monsters

This was a fish-man who looked seventy to eighty percent similar to Neptune.

His name was Poseidon.

A name taken from the legendary sea god.

And he was Neptune's father.

At this moment.

Poseidon silently stood up from the throne. Holding the trident that represented the throne of the Ryugu Kingdom, he fell into silence.

"The radical fish-men of the fish-man race attacked the Edward Family's ship."

"Edward Ike…"

"The patriarch of the Edward Family personally took action?"

Poseidon gently rubbed the space between his brows. His voice even carried a hint of uncertainty.

Something like this had actually happened?

A minister respectfully said, "Your Majesty, the fish-men seemed to have mistaken the Edward Family for slave traders, so they directly attacked. Now, the heads of all those fish-men have already been hung in the center of Fish-Man Island's plaza."

"And what else?"

"More and more fish-men have already rushed into the plaza because of hatred."

"I understand."

Just by listening to the minister's report, Poseidon already knew exactly what had happened.

If nothing unexpected happened…

The fish-men of Fish-Man Island were probably acting as if they had gone mad at this very moment, constantly charging into the plaza. And because more fish-men were killed, even more people would rush into the battlefield.

Just thinking about it made Poseidon silently sigh. He truly did not even know what he should say.

Poseidon had thousands of words in his heart, but in the end, they all turned into a helpless sigh. He truly had no idea what to say.

The problem was…

With the situation being so clear, were those idiots really still going to act like this?

What was this?!

Poseidon knew very well that the situation was extremely troublesome. But whether it was troublesome or not, he could only be responsible for resolving it. Otherwise, what would happen next?

If this continued, then the following situation might truly become very interesting in the worst possible way.

Drip!

Drop after drop of fresh blood echoed as it fell. Ike looked at the corpse-strewn plaza and said indifferently, "Fish-men. Is this the attitude you show to someone entering your plaza?"

Ike's voice was very calm.

The problem was.

Facing this situation, Ike's voice was calm and indifferent, which made people tremble.

Damn it!

"This power…"

"What is this?"

"One thousand people. Could they all be swordsmen?"

"Every one of them has mastered Iron-Cutting Swordsmanship. First, they have all mastered the two types of Haki. Second, the long swords in their hands were all specially forged!"

Everyone let out gasps of shock.

One thousand swordsmen.

What kind of concept was this?

This was simply something out of a fairy tale. It was nearly unbelievable.

But whether they believed it or not, the current situation was right before their eyes. Whether they accepted it or not, the Edward Family had displayed such power.

To those people, they truly did not care about everything involved.

For these people, there was only one thing they cared about.

That was what everyone was thinking. They wanted to see what kind of choice Fish-Man Island would make next.

Of course.

In the end.

All of this was meaningless. The true core was what attitude the Ryugu Kingdom would show.

The Edward Family's power had already been displayed. Because of that, this matter had become increasingly interesting. What would the final result be?

Everyone was very curious.

After all, the situation was not something they had expected.

"Bring the Den Den Mushi."

Ike casually gave an order.

Seeing Ike bring out the Den Den Mushi, the faces of those watching from all around turned slightly pale.

This guy… could he be planning to call Whitebeard and Red Count over?

Wouldn't that be over?

"Next, let's see what price Fish-Man Island is willing to pay!"

Everyone more or less understood Ike's attitude. One after another, they quietly stepped back a little. They did not want to get involved in this.

"Your Majesty!"

Everyone looked toward Poseidon as he arrived. Poseidon asked calmly, "Did we attack first?"

Everyone immediately fell silent.

They all knew very clearly what had happened in this matter.

Among the fish-men, groups like Arlong and Hody Jones were extreme supremacists. To them, humans were disgusting filth.

To be honest.

Ike truly found the fish-men very interesting. Eighty percent of the current problems in the Ryugu Kingdom were caused by the fish-men bringing disaster upon themselves. This was no joke. Aside from that, there was another extremely important core issue.

To these fish-men, they believed that humans were all trash. But the problem was, their strength was still not enough.

Instead of doing everything they could to raise their own purchasing power and strength, they instead constantly provoked the other side.

Ike really wanted to ask them: Are you stupid? If you hate them, then fight them properly!

What kind of behavior was this?

Poseidon moved forward solemnly. Regarding these radical fish-man supremacists, at this moment, he truly gritted his teeth with hatred. He even wanted to personally use the law to erase all of them. If he acted, at least this entire matter could be cleaned up properly.

However!

Ike had not changed his mind.

His attitude toward the Ryugu Kingdom was very simple. Give me an explanation. Give me a result. Otherwise, perhaps he could bring his big brother or his nephew as guests here in the future.

However!

Merely showing sincerity through compensation was clearly not enough. It was still not enough. Every aspect had to be appropriate.

Ryugu Kingdom.

This was the core of the Ryugu Kingdom.

Yet Ike was sitting on the throne, while Poseidon could only stand to the side.

Because!

Poseidon truly had no choice. This man genuinely possessed the power to topple the entire Fish-Man Island. There was truly no need to doubt that.

Three Admiral-level fighters in one family!

This was the Edward Family.

To those superpowers, perhaps the Edward Family was merely enough for them to pay extra attention. But to the Ryugu Kingdom, they were an absolutely untouchable giant.

"Mr. Poseidon." Ike remained calm and said very peacefully, "I need an explanation. Moreover, you must give me one. I was only passing through Fish-Man Island and planned to rest for a while before leaving. What exactly does the fish-man race mean by this?"

"Will the Ryugu Kingdom take responsibility for what has happened, or will the fish-man race take responsibility?"

"Hehehe…"

Ike smiled softly, but listening to that calm laughter, Poseidon felt his heart almost leap out of his chest.

As someone who also held authority, Poseidon was very clear.

At a time like this, the calmer someone was, the more terrifying the situation became.

If it was not handled properly…

Poseidon knew that the other party truly had the ability to massacre the entire Fish-Man Island.

Poseidon deeply exhaled. With a smile on his face, he said, "Mr. Ike! How about this? Fifteen billion Berries. At least fifteen billion Berries. As for this matter…"

"The fish-men will present it to the Edward Family as a gift. How does that sound?"

Fifteen billion Berries.

Poseidon was a smart man. He did not call it compensation, but a gift.

After all.

The Ryugu Kingdom was still an affiliated nation of the World Government. Gifts were naturally acceptable. But if it were called compensation, then that would be hard to say.

"A gift of fifteen billion Berries…"

Ike smiled. "I am not especially interested in this gift. I am not someone who cares very much about gifts."

"Thirty billion Berries," Poseidon continued. "Mr. Ike, a gift of thirty billion Berries. There will absolutely be no issue. What do you think?"

At this moment, Poseidon's attitude was truly very low. He was so angry that his teeth were itching.

What kind of nonsense was this?

Damn it!

Poseidon knew that after this matter ended, he absolutely had to deal with those damned radical fish-men. Otherwise, if this continued, the Ryugu Kingdom would definitely be destroyed by those extremists.

"Thirty billion Berries…"

Ike looked at Poseidon with interest. Facts proved that just as he knew, the Ryugu Kingdom was truly damn wealthy!

As a race that could freely search for treasures in the sea, who knew how many treasures they had found beneath the deep sea and how many sunken ships they had searched over so many years? Just how rich was the Ryugu Kingdom?

Thirty billion. Such an amount of money could be taken out just by saying it. And this was cash in gold, silver, and jewels, not supplies!

Ike hesitated slightly.

Poseidon let out a long breath. No matter what, as long as Ike was tempted, that was good. That was a good thing. Otherwise, if Ike insisted on saying he wanted to destroy the Ryugu Kingdom, that would truly be terrifying.

"However!" Ike smiled. "What I like most is women. I wonder, Mr. Poseidon, do you have anyone you would like to give me?"

Listening to Ike's words, Poseidon immediately understood what he meant. The other party was aiming for mermaids.

To be honest!

Mermaids naturally did not count as anything much to Poseidon.

Only…

Looking at Ike's expression, Poseidon knew very clearly that this man absolutely could not be dismissed with some random fish-woman.

The smile on Ike's lips remained from beginning to end. His attitude was very calm, as though he did not care about any of this at all.

However!

Sometimes, the more it was like this, the more terrifying it became.

After a brief silence, Poseidon also revealed a smile and said, "Mr. Ike, how about this? Among the mermaid royal family, my younger sister, Amphitrite, is eighteen years old this year…"

However!

As he said this, Poseidon's expression became increasingly ugly, because he understood exactly what Ike wanted.

He hoped…

This man definitely knew when to stop. Otherwise, with Ike's attitude, it was possible he would…

An independent princess represented something.

Every year, the mermaids would choose a mermaid princess. And this mermaid princess would be the most beautiful mermaid of that year.

The title of mermaid princess was not a real royal title, but the title given to the most beautiful mermaid.

In Sea Circle Calendar Year 1474, the one selected as mermaid princess was a mermaid named Otohime. She was extremely outstanding.

At this moment…

Poseidon already understood what the other party had taken a fancy to.

However, he understood that aside from Otohime, there was also another person.

There was no other choice.

A fish-woman!

To be precise, this person's identity was somewhat special.

Normally speaking.

She should not have been accepted by the fish-men.

But!

Shalaxi was truly too beautiful. Aside from a few faint scales on her lower body and pearl-like patterns on her face, she was completely a stunning beauty worth one hundred points.

Perfect.

Since this opportunity had been given to Ike, he naturally planned to take such beauties away. There was nothing shameful about it. As a man, was it wrong for him to think beautiful women were nice?

In any case…

Thirty billion Berries and Otohime had been his goal. As for Amphitrite and Shalaxi, those were all extras.

"Good."

Poseidon smiled and said, "Mr. Ike, these will be given to you as gifts! I hope you will like them. This small misunderstanding should be considered resolved."

Ike only smiled.

Not speaking was the best response.
