Arceus's Pirate Journey

Fishing has always been an important activity on a pirate ship. It is very common for ships to go out to sea to have fishing rods. They can supplement food while having fun. If you are lucky, you can also improve your food.

So when Arceus was giving out New Year's gifts to Yamato and the others, a few pirates were fishing and betting on who could catch the bigger fish.

But at this time, Manderfish was in deep thought while looking at the fish he had caught. Not only him, but also the surrounding pirates were shocked.

"Manderfish, did you catch... yourself?"

As the people around him said this, someone finally couldn't hold it any longer, and a burst of laughter spread across the deck, attracting the attention of other fishing veterans.

"Isn't this kind of fish released by the Holy Beast into the waters of Wano? Why is it even here?"

"It's different. How big are the fish at Wano Falls? If you look at these ones, they are only the size of ordinary carps."

Yes, what this person caught was a Magikarp, and its red scales and golden crown already showed its identity.

"What should I do?"

"Let it go, what else can we do? Lord Arceus values ​​the creatures he created."

“But what about the wagyu?”

"Aren't they all bred by the second generation? Who dares to have evil thoughts about Kentero or something like that? But although this one is exactly the same, it is so small, Manderfish, why don't you come and ask it."

Looking at the Magikarp in the bucket, several people finally turned their attention to Manderfish.

The abilities of Pokémon espers are imposed on the body through conferment. They are still human in nature and are not able to communicate with Pokémon as skillfully as Zeraora.

However, people with the same kind of abilities can better understand each other's meaning when facing the same kind of Pokémon, so Manderfish was brought to the bucket. Looking at the Magikarp that kept jumping up and down, he didn't know what to say.

What.

But the laughter here has attracted Arceus' attention.

"Lord Arceus, look, we just caught a strange fish."

Looking at the Magikarp in the barrel, he realized that this was not the generation he created. He understood that his original purpose had been achieved.

When he first entered Wano Country, he transformed those Carp Kings, and their offspring were also heading to other sea areas. Not a short time has passed now.

Now Magikarp appear in the first half of the Grand Line, which shows that the distribution of Magikarp is getting wider and wider.

"Put it back, Magikarp can't eat it."

There is no edible part of Magikarp's body structure. In the Pokémon world, even people who are about to starve to death would not think of eating Magikarp. If the chef here has a way to cook these Magikarp, he can only say

A cry of admiration.

Before the Magikarp was put back into the water, a cry of surprise came from the stern of the boat. Yamato and Jack were almost dragged into the water while grabbing a fishing rod. Fortunately, the pirate next to them reacted quickly enough and grabbed it.

A few of them lived there.

However, they still did not put down the fishing rods in their hands.

"Miss Yamato is so amazing, you caught a big fish."

The pirates who took the fishing rod felt the huge force coming from the fishing rod in their hands. This was a fishing rod given to them by the Sandians, which was made of a combination of rope cloud, iron cloud and cloud shell. Its toughness and load-bearing capacity far exceed

Ordinary fishing rod.

At this time, the fishing rod had been bent into the shape of a clip, but it still did not break.

"Stop watching the fun, you guys come and help, this is a big guy!"

He now understood why Yamato and the others were almost dragged down. Even an adult might not be able to withstand this force. With the combined efforts of several adult pirates, a blue creature was fished out of the sea.

...

"Roar!" The blue creature entrenched on the deck roared, its body segment by segment, with several fin-like body structures behind it.

It opened its big mouth and let out an angry roar, and at the same time, it flicked its tail and swept away a pirate nearby.

"Neptune type? No, it's too small. Is it a sea monster?"

"Who knows, there are all kinds of weird creatures in the sea, but this guy is so strong, and I don't know what's going on. I'm a little scared looking at this thing..."

When Arceus returned to the stern of the ship again, what he saw was the roaring monster, a species he was very familiar with - Gyarados.

One of the weakest Pokémon, Magikarp's evolved form is the very powerful Gyarados, commonly known as the Brutal.

Compared to the weak King Magikarp, Gyarados has a very ferocious character. It has teeth that are so hard that it can crush stones, and it also has scales as hard as steel.

However, due to changes in the brain during evolution, the character has become very violent, but if it can be recognized, you can also see its friendly side.

The Magikarp in the waters near Wano have not evolved, probably because there are no natural enemies nearby, and the Magikarp who leave the waters of Wano have to face various dangerous situations in the sea.

There are also various monsters in the vast ocean, and this pressure has prompted the evolution of some powerful individuals.

Seeing that it was planning to spit out fire, Arceus tied its mouth with a vine braid. Breathing out fire on a ship was not a good habit.

Although being able to evolve into Gyarados shows that it is the best among these Magikarps, the gap between it and Arceus is still too obvious.

"Yamato, didn't you ask me earlier what evolution is? This is evolution."

As he said that, he brought over the Carp King that had not been released yet.

"This is their original appearance, but as long as the opportunity comes, they will evolve and acquire a new appearance of their own.

They are Gyarados, and they have their own place even in this sea."

That was the problem that Yamato had when he first got the fairy milk, and the appearance of this Gyarados gave him a good explanation.

"Will the fairy milk become so scary?"

"No, each Pokémon has its own evolved form, and the Pokémon is also very cute after evolution."

Then they put them all back into the sea. Yamato and the others also understood how amazing evolution is, but some people were more excited than them.

That's Manderfish.

"Lord Arceus, can Magikarp become like this?"

To others, this might not matter, but to him, it was a qualitative change. If nothing else, he had just seen the flames appear in Gyarados's mouth.

If he can also have this ability, then his life plan can be changed. Instead of retiring, he should climb to a higher position before applying for retirement, and the benefits should be much better.

He can breathe fire and swim. If his abilities can evolve into that, Manderfesh will be able to brag about being like Little Kaido in the future.
