“well…”

Luther sighed softly

Fishman Island is a very important partner in his future strategy

In order for this partner to grow up as quickly as possible, it seems that he has to let Otohime know some things, those cruel unspoken rules about the human world.

“Princess Otohime, if you just want to move the fish-man island to the mainland, there is a gathering place for fish-men on the sea. It’s very simple, you just need to find a suitable uninhabited island and move your people there. but…”

The change of Luther’s words also made Otohime’s heart twitch.

Obviously Luther didn’t speak, but she didn’t know why, but she seemed to see the scene of her own people dying tragically on the land and being displaced from him.

“but what?”

Otohime couldn’t help but ask. She could feel that Luther was talking about something very important, and she couldn’t help but become serious.

“But, related to the second thing you mentioned, if people knew that Fish-Man Island was not under the sea but on the surface of the sea, pirates and human traffickers would go crazy because of this, just to capture mermaids and fish-men for sale.”

“Is there no way to stop this? I believe that pirates can sit down and have a good talk, and most of the pirates who pass by Fish-Man Island will not do anything inappropriate.”Otohime said

Luther smiled and said,”The reason you think you can sit down and talk is not because those pirates are kind enough. It’s because there are two flags hanging on Fish-Man Island. One represents the World Government and the other represents Whitebeard.””

“However, even if we move to land, we can still hang two flags.”Princess Otohime hesitated.

“It is indeed possible, but the dangers encountered at sea are not the same as those under the sea.”

Luther nodded calmly and continued:

“The pirates who will pass through Fish-Man Island are basically pirates who want to see the new world. Most of them are not interested in slaves, and they will not offend Whitebeard and the World Government for this trivial matter. Most of those who would go to catch fishmen on Fishman Island would also be driven away by your own guards.”

“What are the dangers on the sea? Are they pirates and human traffickers?”Otohime hesitated.

She couldn’t help but think of Tiger, whom she had met a few days ago. His extremely dark negative emotions could not have just seen enslaved compatriots. There was a high probability that Tiger himself had been enslaved.

Tiger is already the strongest being among the fishmen and mermaids except Neptune. Even if Tiger goes to sea, he will be enslaved. They may not be able to hold on.

She also knew about Tiger’s liberation of slaves in the Holy Land, which was why she wanted to come to the Shampoo Islands to do her part.

In fact, rather than moving to land, she now wants to liberate the compatriots who are still suffering.

Even sitting in the tea room, she could sense the deathly silence of the slaves not far away. She really wanted to do something.

“Including the pirates and human traffickers you mentioned, but because of the rarity of mermaids and fishmen, you are more likely to face wars with other allies!”Luther said calmly.

“war?!”

Otohime exclaimed

This word is far away from Fish-Man Island, so far away that she only knows the cruelty of war, but does not have a clear picture of it.

“But…We are all members of the World Government. Can we start wars with each other?”Otohime hesitated.

“It seems that you haven’t exactly studied the regulations of the countries that join the World Government.”

Luther smiled and said the oath of alliance:

“I swear by the sacred and inviolable 20 kings that my country has become a member of the World Alliance today, voluntarily provides heavenly gold for the development of the World Government every year, abides by the laws and codes of the World Government, and will not be an enemy of the World Government and its subordinate departments….”

“Well…It seems that there is really no regulation that prohibits attacks between participating countries.”Princess Otohime looked confused.

It doesn’t state that attacks are not allowed. According to Luther, it is normal for the alliance countries to have wars with each other.

Especially because of the special nature of their race, they may become public enemies.

Fish-Man Island is not afraid of war, but as kind as she is, she doesn’t want to drag Fish-Man Island into a war because of her own ideas.

“If this doesn’t work, then what about freeing the slaves?”

Otohime almost gave up on migrating to land and turned to another matter.

In her heart, liberating her compatriots is more important

“Free the slaves…”

Luther’s dull eyes fell on Otohime, and then he gave Robin a look.

Robin poured tea for the two of t

“Today, Islands 1-3 of the Chambord Islands have become the largest and only slave trading place in the world. Just talking about fish people and mermaids, the annual transaction volume is about 3 billion beli, the average selling price of fish people is 1 million, and the average selling price of mermaids is 50 million.”

“3 billion!”

Otohime was slightly shocked. She didn’t know that she and her compatriots were so valuable.

Now even a simple person like her could understand the subtext of Luther and Robin.

If she wants to liberate her compatriots, she can use a very simple method to directly buy all the mermaids and mermaid slaves

Since the Shampoo Islands are the largest and only trading place, buying the fishmen and mermaids here is equivalent to buying all the fishmen and mermaids here.

Immediately, she thought about it in her mind, but in the end, there was bitterness in her eyes.

3 billion beli doesn’t sound like a lot, but it’s the amount that needs to be paid every year

Coupled with the heavenly gold that needs to be paid every year, it is enough to overwhelm the finances of Fish-Man Island.

“we can pay half of that…”

Otohime’s words seemed pale and weak, and Robin could seem to hear her despair.

At this time, Otohime looked at Luther with even a bit of pleading.

Her mind is not stupid, she just communicated a few words, and she already understood that the owner of this largest trading place was none other than Luther in front of her.

Therefore, if we want to liberate our compatriots who are suffering, we need to start with Luther.

“I can return all the mermaids and murlocs to Fishman Island, and strictly prohibit the sale of mermaids and murlocs. I can even give you an island and plant the flag of the Don Quixote family on it.”Luther said calmly

“Really? So what do we need to pay?”

Otohime quickly added, now she no longer spoke pure and kind words.

Through her communication with Luther, she understood that the other party emphasized equal exchange.

How much you pay, how much you gain

Although it is a little unkind, it is fair and Otohime can accept it.

She didn’t think much about the relocation that Luther mentioned later. All Otohime wanted to do was liberate her compatriots first.

“It’s very simple. You need to send a group of people to work for me. The job content is to be watched or do some work, and you will be paid a lot of money every month.”Luther smiled.

“It’s that simple?”

Otohime was dumbfounded and couldn’t imagine it. Compared to saving her compatriots, this was simply not a request.

“Of course, a very simple request, but it may require thousands of your people to work for me every year. This job is not compulsory, but you cannot quit for at least one year after accepting it, otherwise the economic losses caused will be borne by you personally.”Luther said

“There is no need to bear it personally, Dragon Palace Kingdom can bear it!”Otoji hurriedly said

“That’s your internal matter.”Luther shrugged.

“Can you tell me what exactly you need to do?”Otohime asked

“Divided into several parts, some of which are driven or appreciated by those who replace those slaves, these people will have the highest income, a figure beyond the imagination of ordinary fish or fish people. The other part is fishing, including sea kings and ordinary fish. It is a job you are qualified for. The salary is average, but I don’t think you will refuse. As for the last part, I need a few elite teams of fishmen and mermaids. It can be regarded as a kind of maritime security work. I think you will not refuse.”Luther said

Of the three parts he said, the most important to him were the last two parts

In comparison, the first human leasing industry, which seems to make the most money, is actually just an addition.

Things are rare and expensive. When mermaids and fishmen appear in large numbers, no one will spend a lot of money to pursue them.

It is conceivable that after the Fishman Island migrates to the mainland, mermaids and fishmen will appear frequently, and the fishmen and mermaids will also fall into the small human tribe and the long-legged tribe. The price is similar.

On the contrary, the fishing industry and security services have broader prospects in the future.

After all, this world is the world of the sea, and in the world of the sea, the ability of mermaids and fishmen to swim freely in the sea is definitely an extremely valuable talent.

“You can think about it and don’t rush to give me an answer.”

Luther smiled slightly and sat on the tea seat, waiting for Otohime’s meditation to end.

Otohime and Fishman Island have too many needs. As long as these needs are met that are not difficult for him, Fishman Island will sooner or later be labeled as Don Quixote.
