Arceus’ Pirate Journey

"Fish, what's wrong?"

Looking at Manderfish who kept rubbing his eyes on the deck, Rusaka was a little worried about his physical condition.

"It's okay, it's just that I may be a little dazzled. Look at Tiger, why do I feel like he is glowing?"

"No, it's still the same. Boss Tiger is exactly the same as before."

Rusaka looked at Tiger for a long time, but couldn't see where the light was coming from. He was a snapper and had no light-emitting organs. She didn't understand why Manderfish felt this way.

"Something's wrong, maybe I really should go for a physical examination. Forget it, I'll take Tiger to the monastery first, and then I'll take you around here."

He has his own cadre room on Ghost Island, but there is nothing interesting to see there. There is nothing in his room since he has been stationed abroad for a long time.

Someone in Onigashima cleans the room regularly for him, which can be said to be tidy, but there is nothing new at all.

Compared to the small amusement park built on the island where he was stationed, this was a huge difference from a few hundred acres of land to a hut of dozens of square meters.

His mission is to bring Tiger back here, and after that there will be professionals to replace him. In terms of preaching, Misu has shown her ability, and even Shaina cannot compare with her.

"Follow me. The convent is here and Sister Misu is waiting for you."

As he spoke, Manderfish took the lead out of the submersible harbor and entered the bustling area of ​​Baiwu.

"This is the country of Wano. We have built our base camp for more than ten years. This area is now called Baiwu, and the current manager is Lady Shaina."

Most of the infrastructure of the beasts was built in Baiwu, the Pokémon Center, the monastery, and the Squirtle Fire Department. The original submarine port was also an important external transportation hub, so this area was handed over to Shaina.

"I read in the literature that Wano was once a very closed country, right?"

The document mentioned by Tiger is also part of the overall doctrine. According to it, the country of Wano has been closed to the country for many years, even more closed than Fish-Man Island.

Fishman Island has foreign ships passing by every day, but due to the topography of Wano Country, there are almost no outsiders. Without internal response, there have only been one or two outsiders who came here unexpectedly in decades.

"That was indeed the case before. Is there any problem?"

"These people don't seem afraid of me."

As the captain of the Sun Pirates, Tiger led the fishmen to sail on the sea for three years. During these three years, they did not enter the new world, but in the first half of the Grand Line, their footprints involved many islands.

As Aaron said, humans view fish-men with suspicion and fear. Unlike the beauty of mermaids, fish-men are mostly rough in appearance, which is equated with monster in the eyes of many people.

The fear comes from the unknown. It is precisely because of lack of understanding that people think that fish-men are scary creatures based on their appearance.

This is true for the islands that maintain external contact, but it should be even more serious for Wano, which is closed to the outside world.

As far as he knew, there were no fish-men in Wano. As for Jack, his appearance was very close to human beings, and no one would be able to tell that he was actually a fish-man unless he said something.

He doesn't have the iconic features of a fish-man, and is actually more like a giant than a fish-man.

This is the central economic zone of Baiwu, with a large flow of people, and most of them are locals from Wano Country. This can be seen by looking at the clothes. A few young people have changed a bit, but most adults are still traditional. Wano country clothing.

There were even children playing around him, but the adults did not rush to take them away. Even when he said goodbye to Kella on Forchat Island, he could see fear in the eyes of other villagers, but there was no such thing here. .

To these people, he seemed like a perfectly normal, ordinary person.

"Why should you be afraid? You are more fierce. A dozen years ago, they might have regarded you as a monster, but it is different now. There are many people here who are more like monsters than you. No, it should be said that they were originally Just a monster.”

The previous Wano Country was indeed xenophobic. Kawamatsu, Neko Viper, and Inuarashi were almost burned to death as monsters.

Before her death, He Song's mother even asked He Song to call herself a kappa. It can be seen that for humans in the outside world, monsters named kappa are more acceptable than fish-men.

But everything has changed now. As the beasts have become the actual rulers of Wano, more and more Pokémon appear here. Each Pokémon is a brand new creature. In this environment, discrimination Naturally, it became a taboo in Wano Country.

Over the past ten years, as Pokémon have become more and more closely related to people's lives, Wano has gradually become accustomed to intelligent creatures with different appearances, and Pokémon has completed the transformation from monsters to grass-headed gods. .

As he was talking, Tiger felt a slight vibration from the ground, and a giant wild boar man more than ten meters high was walking towards here carrying a huge boulder.

This made him understand the meaning of Manderfish's words.

[There are many more monsters here than you]

The murlocs looked like monsters at best, but the huge King Yanwu was a real monster. However, those people did not flee in all directions. They were still waving at King Yanwu and even calling him Lord Mountain God.

"This is."

"You can call him King Yanwu. He used to be a huge wild boar. Later, Master Arceus transformed him. It looks like which bridge should be repaired."

"That's great. This should be the situation that Princess Otohime wants to see the most."

There was no discrimination, and people of all races could walk freely on the streets and bathe in the sunshine. He seemed to see a country that only existed in Otohime's ideals.

"Then I don't know. Wano Country is very big. You can sigh slowly when the time comes. Come with me first. Sister Misu has been waiting for you for a long time."

He didn't mind being a tour guide for his wife, but he didn't want to take Tiger with him all the time. Now he still communicated normally, but he would have a headache when he thought about those religious issues, so he walked directly in the direction of the monastery.

In the monastery, Misu is taking the children of the monastery to clean the monastery. There is no tuition fee here, and it also provides food, accommodation and teaching tasks.

It’s just that everyone who studies here must work to the best of their ability, even Lamy is no exception. This is to train them in advance and let them understand that there is no free lunch in the world.

But everything provided by the monastery is of the highest quality, on the same level as the military supplies provided to Hiyori in the Flower Capital. Even ordinary people in Wano want to send their children here, but they don't want it here.

This can be regarded as the "noble" academy of the beasts, which only adopts orphans and children of members of the beasts.
