Chapter 57 Will they retaliate?
Chapter 57 Will they retaliate?
Lady Shirley didn't know why such a terrifying change would occur when Luo Ji came into contact with the divination orb.
You should know that her divination pearl has absolutely no effect when touched by others.
Let alone unleashing such a powerful aura, it's impossible for even a glimpse of the future to appear.
This is also why Mrs. Shirley was able to become the owner of the Divination Pearl without anyone trying to take it away.
Because it would be of no use to anyone else who got it.
Mrs. Shirley also felt that she was a special mermaid.
When she was three or four years old, she was drawn by some kind of sound and obtained this divination pearl in the bottom ruins of Fishman Island.
According to Lady Shirley's description, the divination orb injuring Luo Ji seemed to be just an accident.
If it weren't for Xia Li's sudden urge to foresee Luo Ji's future...
She wasn't frightened by the horrific battle scenes, which caused the divination orb to roll in front of Luo Ji.
Just as the doctors were trying to revive the unconscious people, a riot suddenly broke out among the mermaids and fish-people watching outside.
“Kill these human pirates! They were trying to kidnap and sell our people, and they even knocked so many of them unconscious. Kill them!”
Hody Jones, along with the other officers, began to incite the crowd, causing many unsuspecting fishmen to become enraged.
After all, many merfolk who had come from afar found quite a few of their people unconscious along the way.
The closer they got to the Mermaid Cafe, the more of their people fainted.
These fish-men actually believed that there was a human pirate crew attacking and capturing their people.
"The King's Army is still protecting the pirates. They are the sinners of Fishman Island. Defeat them and kill the human pirates."
As Hody Jones and his men shouted, a large number of merfolk were enraged and began to attack the king's army.
"Oh no! A riot is about to break out!"
The eldest prince, Shark Star, quickly discovered that someone was inciting his people who were unaware of the truth, and immediately ordered the royal army to stop these citizens who had become enraged.
"My people, please calm down. There are no human traffickers here. Don't..."
"boom!"
King Neptune hurriedly shouted to calm the unruly citizens, but a gunshot interrupted his speech.
It was this gunshot that enraged the royal army, which launched a full-scale crackdown on the mob that dared to attack the king.
In an instant, a chaotic battle broke out between the royal army and the mob.
Meanwhile, Hody Jones and his men had already quietly retreated, far from the battlefield, revealing cunning smiles.
King Neptune, having escaped the gunfire, watched his people wrestle in civil war, his face contorted with anger and gloom.
Who is stirring up trouble and plotting against them?
"Go and stop this battle!"
Neptune, along with his three sons and ministers, rushed to the scene to try and stop the riot.
As Yamato watched the doctor treat Luo Ji and the other crew members, she was also annoyed by the fighting outside.
At this moment, Rebecca and Ushimaru, the users of the Mythical Zoan type, were the first to regain consciousness.
"You keep an eye on Luo Ji, I'm going to quiet them down."
Given the chaotic situation outside, Yamato gave Rebecca and Ushimaru some instructions before heading out to use Conqueror's Haki to stun the noisy guys.
But just as Yamato left the door, an invisible figure slipped into the coffee shop.
'Hidden Assassination - 66 Tiles Shattered!'
While invisible, Jeo saw the most dangerous Yamato leave and, without hesitation, stabbed Luo Ji, who was being treated by the doctor.
Ushimaru, who had just regained consciousness, twitched its nose and instantly sensed danger. It barked several times and transformed into its Great Nyūdō form to charge forward.
The shark-like man's proactive attack and Ushimaru's sudden change caused Yamato, who had just left, to turn back and look in Luo Ji's direction.
"Luo Ji!!"
Yamato instantly transformed into a blur and charged back. These fish-men dared to attack Luo Ji; it was simply unforgivable.
"Brother Luo Ji!"
In a moment of desperation, Rebecca transformed into a pink dragon and unleashed a burst of dragonfire.
"Humans, die!"
Jeo was also afraid of these attacks, but he had to complete the task assigned by Boss Jones.
The dagger plunged straight into Luo Ji's heart.
"No! Luo Ji!!"
Yamato screamed wildly, his eyes turning incredibly blood-red, and an even more ferocious Conqueror's Haki erupted from his body.
But the three men's attacks seemed to have been a step too slow.
The dagger pierced Luo Ji's heart.
But the next moment, Luo Ji's body suddenly shifted to the right, causing Jie'ou's dagger to pierce the bed.
"This feels great. Is this what it means to foresee the future?"
Luo Ji, whose eyes were vacant, suddenly revealed a faint smile.
"How is this possible?!"
'A colorful carpet!'
Seeing that his assassination attempt had failed, Jeo quickly made his escape invisible, blending into the ground like mud.
"Ah~"
However, Jeo, who was wriggling on the ground, was directly stepped on by Ushimaru's big foot.
At this moment, the enraged Yamato and Rebecca also rushed over and began to smash and slash wildly at the assassin.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the invisible Jeo was also exposed and completely dead.
"Brother Luo Ji! Are you alright?!"
Rebecca rushed into Luo Ji's arms with tears streaming down her face, and even Yamato's eyes were a little red.
"Don't worry, it seems like we've actually turned misfortune into a blessing and gained quite a bit."
Luo Ji stroked Rebecca's hair, gently comforting the pink-haired princess.
"Luo Ji, I'm so glad you're alright! I thought you were going to get killed by such a nobody. It's all my fault for not protecting you properly."
Yamato lowered her head, filled with self-reproach. She had just left the unconscious Luo Ji, giving these enemies an opportunity to take advantage of her.
"It's alright, besides, this guy might not be able to kill me!"
Luo Ji smiled calmly, revealing the inner armor beneath his clothes. Without the strength of a steel-slaying swordsman or higher, one simply could not break through his defenses.
"...So you really are afraid of dying!"
'Pfft~'
Yamato's eyes, brimming with tears and guilt, suddenly broke into a laugh, almost spitting out snot.
"That's called being cautious, not being afraid of death."
"But this guy dared to assassinate me, so now is my time for revenge."
Luo Ji's eyes flashed red as he revealed a cruel smile.
Although the fishman's assassination attempt failed, Luo Ji was furious.
He won't be at peace until he gets revenge!
"He's already dead, how can we take revenge? Take revenge on his family?"
Could it be that he has powerful backers?
Yamato kicked the fishman's corpse and suddenly realized what was happening.
The commotion inside the Mermaid Cafe prompted Mrs. Shirley to rush back.
When she saw Luo Ji awake and the corpse on the ground, she immediately sensed that something terrible was about to happen.
Fishman Island must never offend this terrifying monster that can destroy the Red Line!
"What happened?!"
Mrs. Shirley grabbed a panicked merman doctor and began to question him loudly.
"He...he wants to assassinate Lord Luo Ji..."
The merman doctor looked at these terrifying humans with fear, and in a single move, he turned the whisker shark man into a bloody pulp.
Shirley looked at Luo Ji, who was smiling faintly, and at Yamato and Rebecca, who were furious, and felt a chill that went straight to the top of her head.
Are they planning to retaliate against Fishman Island?
How can I appease their anger?
