The next day, Longinus and Tom go to Fish-Man Island, while Frankie and Esbagu return to the City of Seven Waters to gather the shipwrights.

Since being promoted to general, Longinus has resigned as the head of the G2 base, but unfortunately, the affairs of the Fish-Man Island branch are inseparable from his high prestige, so he can only continue to serve as the head of the base.

Therefore, the coated warship that the two of them were riding on could easily enter the confines of Fish-Man Island.

After getting off the boat, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar scenes around him, Tom let out a deep sigh, "It's been a long time since I've been back to Fish-Man Island!" ”

The fish-man stationed on the garrison asked curiously, "Lord Longinus, is he the latest slave you rescued?" ”

"Well, I'm not a slave." Tom choked for a moment, then shook his head to himself, "But it's not much better, Master Longinus fished me out of the city." ”

"Catch people from the advancing city!" The fish-men around them widened their eyes, they were now out of the stage where they didn't know anything, and naturally understood how much power and difficulty were contained in these short words.

Thinking of this, these fish-men couldn't help but be moved and said, "Lord Longinus really deserves to be the patron saint of our fishmen!" ”

At this moment, a tall blue fat man came from a distance, "Lord Longinus, please come with me, His Majesty Neptune has prepared a feast for you." ”

From the initial hatred, to alienation, to recognition, and finally to respect, these changes are the mental journey that most of the fishmen have walked in Jinping.

Everything Longinus did, they watched.

If Princess Otohime is the most prestigious on Fish-Man Island, then Longinus and Whitebeard are in second place, and Neptune, the non-existent king, has to stand aside.

"I've really wronged you by letting you, the king, lead me the way under the Seven Martial Seas."

"Here, I'm not the Seven Martial Seas of Your Majesty." "I'm just a grateful fishman. ”

Tom also secretly said to himself, he hadn't been back to Fish-Man Island for a long time, and he only learned a little about the changes in Fish-Man Island from his brother "Dan".

Today, I realized that Longinus's status on Fish-Man Island seemed to be higher than he imagined.

Even the spiritual leader of Fish-Man Island, Jinping Jinping, has a lot of respect for Longinus, not to mention the others, and sincere and respectful greetings can be heard everywhere along the way.

Dragon Palace Royal City, banquet hall.

The shell-shaped stage, rainbow-like lights, the stage is full of moving dancing and beautiful singing, and the audience is the Neptune family and the high-ranking members of the Dragon Palace Kingdom.

The table is filled with sweet and delicious delicious and delicate Fish-Man Island specialties.

"Let's have a toast to General Longinus." Neptune held up the crystal glass, and the red liquor collided in the glass.

"Your Majesty Neptune is so polite." Longinus raised his glass in response.

After a few pushes of the glass, Neptune asked, "General Longinus, can you elaborate in more detail about the fish-man guerrillas you mentioned earlier?" ”

"Of course, that's what I'm supposed to do." Longinus bowed slightly, looked around at the table, and said, "In addition to the necessary precautions, the fish-man guerrillas can have absolute autonomy, and the rank and status can also be equivalent according to the standards of the headquarters, so it can be said that this will be the best opportunity for the fish-people to integrate into the human world." ”

Everyone in the hall was a little excited, if they could have a certain status in human society, then, human discrimination against fishmen might be eliminated a lot, and the fishmen could be a little more secure after they gradually entered the earthly world, right?

"And the chief engineer of this train network project will also be Mr. Tom."

Hearing this, many fishmen were so excited that they shed tears of emotion, General Longinus was so good to them that he completely handed over such an important project to them.

Jinping was also shocked, he had been worried about the possible casualties of the guerrillas in the process of guarding the track, but now it seems that the risk is completely worth it.

Once this huge project is marked with the symbol of the Fish-Man, subtly, human beings may be able to feel the sincerity and goodwill of the Fish-Man.

"If you can, please allow me to be the captain of this fish-man guerrilla." Jinping said seriously.

In doing so, he still wanted to minimize casualties, and the fierce reputation of the Seven Martial Seas might discourage some pirates.

"Of course, with your joining, I believe that the guerrillas will be able to play their greatest role." Longinus laughed.

"Jinping, thank you for your hard work!" Neptune also breathed a sigh of relief, it was always a little uneasy to send so many fishmen to the sea at one time, but now that it was okay, it was finally safe to have Shiping in charge.

"Your Majesty, this is what I should do as a fish-man." Jinping said without credit at all.

The surrounding kingdom ministers were also red-faced, as if they saw the day when the fish-man walked out of the deep sea, "Let's toast to Boss Jinping??! ”

Just then, the intermittent voice of the phone bug rang.

Longinus opened his watch in a little surprise, and inside was the general's exclusive phone bug, which could barely receive a signal even in the deep sea below 10,000 meters.

"Hey, this is Longinus."

"Longino...... General, you can put the phone ...... Transferred to ...... Mr. Tom...... "The phone bug came from the staccato voice of Esbagu.

"Of course."

After a moment's hesitation, Longinus took off his watch and handed it over.

"Esbagu, could it be that someone from the World Government has come to embarrass you again?"

"No, it's Frankie...... Ran away, the same disappeared...... And you...... Something given to me last time. ”

"What?"

……

At the same time, on an island in the New World known to the outside world as Devil's Island.

Apophis was holding the drawings and pretending to admire, yes, he couldn't read them at all.

"Lord Original Sin, is this the blueprint of the legendary ancient weapon Hades?" Anilu asked with a burning gaze on the side.

"That's right, it's a pity that there are too many restrictions!" Apophis handed over the drawings.

Anilu took it, and his eyes quickly completed the transformation from fiery to solemn to confused.

What kind of ghost is this?

"Lord Original Sin, what exactly are you talking about?"

"Technology, capital, materials, these are constraints." Apophis sat on the throne, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest, "However, the biggest constraint is the venue!" ”

Without waiting for Anilu to ask, Apophis said to himself, "The scale of this project is huge, the movement caused must not be too small, and the time it will take must be very long, if you can't find a place that is hidden enough, building Hades will be discovered sooner or later." ”

"Concealed enough......," said Anilu, suddenly, "is this going to be done on a secret base?" ”

"Yes, what better place than ......," Apophis walked out of the palace and looked up at the bright night sky, where a bright moon hung high, "where everyone can look up and see is more hidden?" ”
