Chapter 176 The Girl in the Fish Belly
Chapter 176 The Girl in the Fish Belly
A month has passed since Oden returned home.
During this month, he traveled every inch of Wano Country.
The prosperous Flower City, Baiwu, which is vigorously developed by the Adrian Chamber of Commerce, and Ximei, which has vast arable land and many pastures...
The changes in Wano Country are not limited to one piece of land, but the entire country is developing.
After realizing that Wano Country was beginning to connect with the world, Oden planned to leave.
He came back only because he saw in Raftel the reason why Wano Country had to be founded, and adventure was what he was looking forward to.
He is also the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates, and he had agreed with Roger to return when they went out to sea.
Many retainers left with him this time, including the undercover Kanjuro.
After Kurozumi Orochi's death, he completely integrated into the identity of Oden's retainer.
He is an actor, an actor who can deceive everyone.
………………
"Well, that's it. Don't worry about him. But the defense of Submarine Port needs to be strengthened. We can't let outsiders enter Wano Country so easily."
On the Watcher, Zell is talking to Hassan.
He was actually not very satisfied with the defense of Wano Country this time. Not discovering Oden's identity in advance was his biggest dereliction of duty.
If Oden hadn't brought two burdens with him, he might have needed to take action.
After hanging up the phone, Ze'er was still thinking about things.
At this stage, he has quite a few lieutenant generals that he can use, and he also has the combat power to compete with the generals for a period of time, but he is the only one who can fight the generals alone, and Yixiao who just joined the group.
Suicune was able to hold back Oden by relying on various strange abilities and the advantage of geographical location.
And even so, Suicune still found it difficult to cause effective damage to Oden.
"Dad, what are you thinking about?"
Viya looked at the thoughtful Zel and stretched out her little pink hand to wave in front of his face.
Zel came back to his senses, smiled, and picked up the quirky Viya.
"I'm wondering when you will grow up. By then, I, your father, will just stay at home and retire. You can help me resist the enemy."
After hearing what Zel said, Weiya pouted.
"Dad, if I remember correctly, you are only twenty-nine years old, right?"
"Forehead……"
Zel was also stunned for a moment, and he seemed to be quite young.
In the world of pirates, forty or fifty years old is the peak of strength, and twenty-nine years old still belongs to the new generation.
Touching his smooth chin, Zel felt that maybe he became a father too early, and his mentality had become much more mature.
Just when Zel was at a loss for words, Viya spoke.
"Dad!"
"what happened?"
"I will grow up soon, and then I will be the one to protect you!"
Hearing Weiya's childish voice, Zel smiled and touched his daughter's little head.
"Dad believes in you."
…………
On the other side, next to the railing of the Watcher.
Casio, Psyduck and Yixiao were like fossils, holding their fishing rods motionless.
“What a peaceful day!”
Yixiao suddenly sighed.
He couldn't see people's appearance, but he could see the shape of their hearts.
After such a long adventure with Zel and the others, he saw the true nature of this group of people.
Except for Zel, who was still a fog in his perception, everyone else was positive and kind.
"Took the bait!"
Casio was about to reply when the fishing rod in his hand suddenly moved.
With a quick pull on the fishing rod, a large purple fish leaped out of the sea and fell onto the deck.
"This is purple-striped fish. It tastes good. Looks like we can have another meal tonight."
Rogers, who was passing by, saw the fish and named it.
Just as Casio was about to throw the fish into the kitchen, Yixiao stopped him.
"Please wait a moment, there seems to be something wrong with this fish."
"what is the problem?"
Casio asked doubtfully. This three-meter-long fish did not interest him at all.
All he wanted to do now was throw the fish into the kitchen and continue to be a quiet fisherman.
"You don't recommend that I cut up this fish?"
He asked the invisible Casio.
"Mr. Yixiao, please."
With Cassio's consent, Yixiao drew out the sword from his waist and cut the fish into pieces at an extremely fast speed.
As the lively purple-striped fish turned into an exquisite sashimi platter, an iron box slid out.
"what is this?"
Casio squatted down and knocked on the iron box, asking in confusion.
"I don't know, but there's a breath of life in it."
He put the knife away with a smile and spoke.
"Then you better be careful."
Casio stretched out his index finger and pressed it against the keyhole, and the white bone flowed in like water.
White bones filled the keyhole, and Casio turned his index finger and the iron box opened.
Rogers also came over and watched Casio open the box curiously.
Click!
The heavy iron box opened, revealing the secret inside.
It was a girl curled up in a box, her wet hair hitting her body, her clothes ragged, and her skinny body.
"How come you caught someone again?"
Casio looked at the girl in the box and thought of Xiaoguang who he had caught before.
"Let's take her to the infirmary first."
Looking at the dying girl, Rogers reminded.
………………
"Casio, I heard you caught someone again!"
At the door of the infirmary, Casio, who heard the news, smiled and patted Casio's shoulder.
On the other side, Xiaoguang blushed when he heard his words, and it was unclear whether he was shy or angry.
"What do you mean by 'again'? I caught the fish, and this girl is a bonus."
As a fisherman, Casio corrected the mistakes in Descartes' words.
"It's all the same, it's all the same!"
Decar said nonchalantly, with a curious look on his face.
"Come and tell me in detail."
Looking at Dekal with a curious look on his face, Casio spread his hands.
"I don't know anything. It was Mr. Yixiao who found her. I don't know anything. If you want to know, you should wait until the person wakes up."
Just as Casio finished speaking, the door of the infirmary opened and Lina walked out.
Seeing Lina, Dekar immediately leaned over and asked.
"Mother Lina, is she awake?"
Lina took off her mask and answered.
"Not yet. Her condition is very serious. She probably won't wake up until tonight."
After saying that, Lina looked at Casio with a strange expression.
Feeling the strange gaze, Casio couldn't help but ask.
"Mother Lina, is there a problem?"
Hearing Casio's question, Lina shook her head and continued.
"No problem, it's just that this girl's condition is exactly the same as Xiaoguang's back then. There are many marks of beatings on her body."
The reason why Lina looked at Casio strangely was because it was such a coincidence, mainly because it was rare to catch a person.
What's even more surprising is that the girls Casio caught were all tortured little girls.
