569. Banquet and entertainment
Zhu Linglu knew very well that it was almost impossible to stop Luffy and Hody Jones from fighting beforehand.
Because Luffy is originally a guy who encounters things and acts directly according to his instinct without going through his brain, it may not be possible for him to take the initiative to find trouble, but once he encounters something he is not used to, he will definitely take action directly.
Now that I mentioned Hody Jones to Luffy, I'm afraid that it will make Luffy worry about him.
The Great Prince Shark Star glanced at Luffy, obviously feeling that this straw hat kid had a feeling of unreliability, but he still put his mind to it and continued to explain, "Hody Jones is the leader of the new Fishman Pirate Group established by a group of Fishmen on the side of Fishman Street after Jinping left, it turns out that he is also a member of our Dragon Palace Guard, but he has always opposed the coexistence of fishmen and humans, and wants Fishman Island to completely sever the relationship with humans and treat humans as slaves of fishmen. In the past two years, he has caused a lot of trouble! ”
"Luffy, you forgot, before we entered Fish-Man Island, we saw those guys who controlled the sea beasts, they were the members of the new Fish-Man Pirates, and they threatened us to join them!"
Zhu Linglu saw that Luffy was still a little dazed, so he reminded him.
"Oh, it's them! Hmph, if I ever see them again, I absolutely want them to look good! But why didn't Jinping let me fight with them! ”
Luffy really clenched his fists and said hatefully, he naturally hated the guys who forced the Sonny to break into Fish-Man Island before.
"We don't know about this, maybe you'll know it when you see Jinping!"
The Great Prince Shark really didn't understand Jinping's intentions, but he was only responsible for passing on word of mouth.
"Did you meet someone from the new Fish-Man Pirates outside of Fish-Man Island? Ramira searched ......"
The second prince seemed to have thought of something and asked Luffy.
Then the third prince overturned the car star and twisted his body again, as if he was dancing, and said, "Red overturn, Huli Huli." No wonder in the last month or so, no pirates have come to Fish-Man Island, Huli Huli! What kind of conspiracy is Hody Jones going on again, Huri Huri! ”
"Oh, is there such a thing? Prince Shark, I think you should look into it. Maybe Hody Jones is preparing some kind of conspiracy, they wanted us to join them before, but if you say that Hody Jones is actually very misogynistic, then he must want us to join the new Fish-Man Pirates, he must want all the human pirates who came to Fish-Man Island to help them do something! Perhaps, he wants to attack the Dragon Palace Kingdom! If so, he will unite with Van der Dyken and use the ability of the target fruit. Maybe the Dragon Palace Kingdom will really be caught off guard. ”
Zhu Linglu warned the Great Prince Shark Star in a timely manner, in the original plot, Shark Star had been chasing Luffy and their whereabouts on Fish-Man Island, but he didn't expect Luffy to be invited to the palace by his father.
Later, Luffy walked around the palace even more familiarly, found the hard shell tower where the mermaid princess Shirahoshi was, and because he sympathized with Shirahoshi who was trapped in the hard shell tower, he ran out with Shirahoshi.
However, Hodh Jones took the opportunity to attack the palace and captured King Neptune, Sauron, Brooke, and Usopp. Then threaten the Ryugu Kingdom and prepare to usurp the throne.
At that time, the three princes of the Dragon Palace Kingdom were still wandering outside, although they also fought a few times with the people of the New Fishman Pirates. but they couldn't get back in time to save their father.
In fact, the guard strength of the Dragon Palace Kingdom is not weak, in the original plot, if it wasn't for the Straw Hats and the gang who first messed up in the palace, and then Hody Jones asked Van der Dyken to use the target fruit ability to throw those human pirates in front of the hard shell tower of the palace, the palace of the Dragon Palace Kingdom would not be so easy to be conquered by Hodi Jones, and King Neptune would not be so easy to catch.
In particular, the strength of these three princes is not weak. Most of the cadres of Hody Jones's new Fish-Man Pirates also rely on taking the "E.S" forbidden drug to compete with the prince.
If the Great Prince Shark Star had been prepared at the beginning, he would have led troops to guard Dragon Palace City, but I am afraid that Hody Jones and Vanderdyken would not have broken the palace so easily.
"Hody Jones! Van der Dyken! ”
The Great Prince Shark Star listened to Zhu Linglu's words, and really pondered. It seems to be considering the possibility of Zhu Linglu's words.
"If they dare to come, I'll punch him away! Haven, let's go find something to eat, I'm hungry, and then we'll go to the Sea Forest and wait for Jinping! ”
Luffy listened to the words of Zhu Linglu and the Great Prince Shark Star, but he became a little impatient, and he seemed to have left behind Jinping's words to tell him not to fight with Hody Jones.
"Are you looking for a place to eat? Since you are friends of Jinping, you deserve to be entertained by our Dragon Palace Kingdom, come with us to the palace, and we will have a banquet to entertain you! ”
The Great Prince Shark listened to Luffy's words, but took the initiative to invite, and it seemed to be back to the original plot track.
Originally, in the plot, it was Neptune, the king of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, who was grateful to the Straw Hats and his gang and saved the mermaid princess Shirahoshi's pet shark Megalo from the side of the deep sea monster, and then specially invited Luffy and them to the palace banquet.
This time, Zhu Linglu didn't remember if a shark took the opportunity to escape when he encountered the deep-sea giant demon squid before, maybe there was.
"Banquet? Is there meat? Is it the meat of sea beasts and sea fish? ”
When Luffy heard about the banquet or something, he immediately became excited, but he still asked carefully.
"Of course, we love meat, too! ......"Huli Huli, the meat is delicious!" ”
The second prince and the third prince overturned star listened to Luffy's inquiry, and they also shouted loudly in the shark hovercar they were riding.
"Ah, great, Haven and Zoro, let's go to the palace! Haha, these people are such good people! Let's go, let's go, let's go! ”
Knowing that there was meat to eat, Luffy immediately became excited and jumped like a child.
So Zhu Linglu, Luffy, and Zoro also followed the three princes of the Dragon Palace Kingdom and went to the palace together in the phoenix tail car of the Dragon Palace Kingdom.
Of course, when the Great Prince Shark Star knew that the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates were also busy on Fish-Man Island, he also ordered his Dragon Palace Guards to invite the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates to go to the Dragon Palace Castle, the royal palace of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, for a banquet.
It didn't take long for the phoenix-tailed car to take Zhu Linglu, Luffy, and Zoro to the gate of Dragon Palace City.
Seeing the magnificent and luxurious Dragon Palace City, Luffy couldn't help but shout like crazy again, which made Zhu Linglu feel a little embarrassed, but Zoro didn't seem to care about Luffy's performance at all, just looked around.
After entering Dragon Palace City, the Great Prince Shark Star first led Zhu Linglu, Luffy, and Zoro to meet the King Neptune of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, and of course, two long-winded left and right ministers.
Neptune saw Luffy, and thanked Luffy for saving the shark Megalo as in the original plot, but Luffy obviously didn't have much of an impression of this, just dealt with it casually, and even got a little impatient.
Luffy is here to eat meat, not to talk...... (To be continued......)
