Hunter × Hunter: The Seven Deadly Sins

"What's the matter?"

asked the burly fishman.

"We are going to Dragon Palace City. We have something important to meet with your King Neptune."

Ilumi said.

"What!?" The burly fishman looked startled, "How is this possible! How could His Majesty meet a criminal like you!"

"You just need to report." Ilumi's tone became more serious. The fishman felt the pressure emanating from him, and couldn't help but feel a chill running down his spine. He could only turn around and pick up the phone with a pale face.

"Your right minister?"

"Yes, I heard everything. Just ask them to wait, and I will go and inform His Majesty."

The right minister's voice came from the phone, and then he hung up.

Ilumi and I were waiting in the control room. The fish-man soldier looked at the two people standing at the door and could only wait with a bitter look on his face.

"Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah..."

After a long time, the phone rang, and the fishman quickly turned around and picked up the phone.

"Bring them in."

The right minister only said this sentence and ended the communication without waiting for the fishman soldiers to respond.

"Let's go, I'll take you to Dragon Palace City."

The fish-man soldier hung up the phone and sighed, then walked out of the control room and found a group of people standing outside.

"Bring the seahorse here."

The burly fishman ordered to the subordinates guarding the door.

"Hi Yi!"

The gatekeeper fishman turned and left. Five minutes later, the gatekeeper fishman came over with four seahorses.

"Captain, there are only four seahorses left. The other seahorses have been ridden out by the patrol."

The gatekeeper murloc reported that the burly murloc looked at Ilumi.

"That's enough." Illumi stepped forward and held a seahorse and handed it to Olvia, "One for you and Robin, and one for Pride and me."

The fourth horse is naturally for the fishman captain who leads the way.

"Others, you can move freely on the island today and set off tomorrow morning."

"Yes, Mr. Ilumi."

Walter bowed slightly.

Ilumi turned over and rode on a seahorse. The seahorse's body was covered with foam. It could float even in places where there was no water, and even swim like in sea water. It was a very strange product.

Olvia first put Robin on the seahorse's back, then turned over and rode on it.

Pride jumped onto the seahorse's back.

"let's go."

The fishman captain sat on the seahorse's back and shook the reins. The seahorse began to swim in the air, and the three seahorses behind him slowly followed. The direction they were heading was very clear, which was the Dragon Palace City floating above the fishman island.

Ten minutes later, the fishman captain led Ilumi and the four of them to the waterway leading to Dragon Palace City, took out a small red coral from his arms and threw it to Ilumi.

"This is coral that makes foam. Just squeeze it and it will come out. You put a foam on your head so you can breathe in the waterway."

Ilumi followed the fishman captain's words, held the coral in his right hand and squeezed it gently. Sure enough, a bubble emerged from the coral, but it was too small for Ilumi, so he popped it casually.

"Just cover your head, your clothes will get soaked."

Ilumi didn't want to move around in wet clothes, so she held the coral in her hand and squeezed out a big bubble, directly covering her whole body in it, and then threw it to Olvia.

Olvia also squeezed out a bubble that was enough for mother and daughter like Ilumi, and then handed it to Pride.

"It's not a precious thing. Just keep it after you use it."

When Pride finished using it, he was about to return it to the fish-man captain, but the fish-man captain asked them to keep it, so Pride threw the coral to Olvia.

Next, the fishman captain led Yilumi and his party into the waterway. After the four seahorses entered the waterway, they rushed out with a "swish", their speed soared, and they passed through thousands of seahorses in just ten seconds. Meter-long curved waterway.

Four seahorses jumped out of the waterway and came to the main entrance of Dragon Palace City. There were a row of murloc teams on both sides of the main entrance steps guarding them.

"Are you the humans who want to see His Majesty?" The leading murloc looked at the four Ilumi people. They didn't have any weapons on them, and nodded, "Come in with me."

Yilumi frowned, the word "seeking" made him slightly unhappy.

A drop of cold sweat broke out on the head of the murloc captain who was leading the way. The murloc guarding the gate didn't know Ilumi at all, otherwise he wouldn't have such an attitude.

Since Dragon Palace City is still in the sea, Ilumi and others can only ride into the palace on seahorses. However, the captain leading the way can no longer move forward. His mission has been to send Ilumi and his group to Dragon Palace City. Done, it's time to go back and continue patrolling.

In the main hall of Ryugu City, Neptune sat high on the throne. Next to the throne was a blond female fish-man dressed in white, who was Princess Otohime.

At this time, Otohime was not yet pregnant with Shirahoshi.

Under the throne are two ministers on the left and right, one Catfish and one Seahorse, who manage the internal affairs and military of Fish-Man Island respectively.

There were two rows of elite fishmen soldiers standing on each side of the hall. Each soldier was wearing solid silver armor and was tall and tall.

Ilumi and his party were led by the guarding fishman into the main hall. Robin in Olvia's arms looked at everything here curiously.

"Your Majesty, people have been brought here."

The guarding murloc knelt down on one knee to Neptune on the throne. Neptune nodded slightly, and the guarding murloc stood up and retreated.

"Open the bubble."

After the guarding fishmen retreated, Neptune gave instructions to Minister Zuo again.

Minister Zuo nodded and walked towards the side door on the left side of the hall. Ten seconds later, a group of transparent foam appeared in the Dragon Palace City. The foam continued to expand and squeezed out all the seawater in the hall, making the Dragon Palace City an area filled with air without seawater.

In this way, Yilumi and the others don't have to talk in bubbles, and communication will be more convenient.

Seeing this, Yilumi took the initiative to pop the bubble, and the three Olvias did the same.

The right minister below the throne stared at Ilumi warily. He did not agree with Ilumi meeting His Majesty the King, but the Princess wanted to meet him, and His Majesty, who doted on the Princess, had no choice but to agree.

"Mother of the devil's son, and the unidentified criminal, what do you want to see me about?"

Neptune asked.

"Long story short, Neptune, I'm here to make an alliance."

"On behalf of the five countries in the first half of the Great Route, including Balkimoa, Impiantra, and Brizet, I conclude an alliance with the Ryugu Kingdom."

"And, I will carve out an island no smaller than Fishman Island and give it to the Fishman clan to establish a nation on the ground!"

Wow! ! !

As soon as Ilumi's words came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the main hall of Dragon Palace City. Even the elite soldiers of Dragon Palace Kingdom couldn't resist the impact of such breaking news and began to whisper and get excited.

"Jianguo, really?"

"Is it true that as Her Royal Highness the Princess said, even among humans, there are people who agree with us?"

"Can we really live on the ground?"

The elite fish-men soldiers in the two rows of the main hall were talking a lot and looked excited. The world on the ground was the world that their fish-men clan had longed for for generations.

"This man...is he crazy?"

The ministers on the left and right looked even more shocked. The fish-men clan was discriminated against by humans all over the world. This man dared to risk being abandoned by the whole world to support them to build a nation on the ground?

Princess Otohime even covered her mouth with both hands, her eyes flashing with tears, she was both moved and surprised.

She has been working hard for the future of humans and the fish-men clan, and now that humans have come to the Dragon Palace Kingdom to form an alliance with them, she was so excited that she was speechless.

Olvia was also shocked. She looked at Ilumi in surprise. She thought he came to see the king of the fish-men clan and just wanted her to read the historical text, but she didn't expect that his real purpose was to meet the king of the fish-men clan. Make an alliance.

"quiet!"

Neptune held the trident in his hand, and struck the ground with a loud bang, creating a weak aftermath, and the noisy hall immediately fell silent.

"Please go back, I will act as if what happened today never happened."

Neptune closed his eyes and took a deep breath, looked at Illumi attentively, and said in a deep voice.

"His Majesty!?"

Princess Otohime looked at Neptune in surprise.

Neptune couldn't bear to look at his wife, and could only stare closely at Ilumi in the hall below.

The elite fishmen soldiers on both sides of the hall looked at their King with incomprehensible eyes. Why didn't they accept it?

Isn't this what they dream of?

Isn’t everything that Her Royal Highness the Princess has been working for just for today?

The left and right ministers secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If they really agreed, their fish-men clan might face a war, a war from the World Government.

"I understand what you're worried about, Neptune."

"Don't worry, this alliance was concluded secretly and will not involve the fish-men clan. At least until you are completely transferred, the fish-men clan will not be attacked by the world government because of the alliance with us."

Ilumi smiled.

"What is your purpose?"

When Neptune heard this, his psychological defenses loosened a small gap and he asked.

"It's nothing, I just want to renew the promise made by humans and fishmen eight hundred years ago."

Ilumi smiled.

"What!"

"How...how did you know...!?"

Neptune's expression changed suddenly, and he even trembled when he spoke. Princess Otohime also had a look of shock on her face.

All the fishmen in the hall, including the ministers on the left and right, looked at them in surprise, not understanding why the King and the Princess were so shocked.

Ilumi's words hit Neptune's heart. No one in the entire Dragon Palace City except him and the princess could understand the meaning of Ilumi's words.

Neptune looked at the smiling Ilumi, his thoughts wandering.

A promise made eight hundred years ago, this is the long-cherished wish of the fish-men family passed down from generation to generation.

But now...

Ancestors’ long-cherished wish?

That kind of thing has long been forgotten by people.

Who would cling to a dream that could not be realized for hundreds of years?

But as a royal member of the fish-men clan, he will never forget the long-cherished wish of the fish-men clan passed down from generation to generation.

However, it is extremely difficult to fulfill the agreement made eight hundred years ago and the long-cherished wish passed down from generation to generation of the fish-men clan.

At least for now, he couldn't see any hope.

The world government is too big.

"How much do you know about that agreement?"

After a long time, Neptune came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and his voice was extremely heavy.

"all!"

Yilumi said solemnly, taking a step forward.

"What you are afraid of is the world government, but one thing you need to understand is that the world government no longer represents the whole world!"

"Eight hundred years have passed, and the world government has been corrupted by the power and interests of the past hundreds of years. They have placed themselves above all other countries in the world. The nineteen tribes of Tianlong people even claim to be gods and enslave the world!"

"So do you understand? They not only discriminate against fish people, they also discriminate against their fellow humans."

"And your idea that the whole world discriminates against murlocs is even more of a joke, because most people in this world don't even know whether the race of murlocs exists, so how can you talk about discrimination?"

"So, the only one who discriminates against you is the world government, not humans!"

Ilumi's words caused the fishmen soldiers in the hall to open their lips slightly and look left and right, seeking the equally surprised gazes of their compatriots.

Neptune closed his eyes, how could he not understand, but even if he understood, there was nothing he could do.

Princess Otohime was also silent. She actually understood, but she always held on to a trace of innocence in her heart. She naively believed that as long as the fish-people embraced humans, humans... no, it should be said that the world government would accept the fish-people.

Until she lost her life.

"Eight hundred years have passed, and the human world's dissatisfaction with the world government has accumulated day by day, becoming larger and deeper."

"For example, these five countries I just mentioned, we are now all countries that oppose the world government and have formed a growing alliance."

"And in this world, there are dozens of countries that have not joined the world government."

"In addition, there are also revolutionary armies with the ultimate goal of overthrowing the world government. They are also growing continuously. Since their establishment, countries have continuously joined the revolutionary army camp."

"Whether it is an anti-World Government alliance formed by countries, a revolutionary army aiming to overthrow the World Government, or the pirate storm set off by Gol 6? 1D 6? 1 Roger!"

"They are all telling the world one thing!"

"Eight hundred years have passed, times are changing, and the world will undergo earth-shaking changes!"

"In this era of violence, you will have the opportunity to fulfill the 800-year-long cherished wish of the fish-men clan!"

"The agreement between Joeyboy and the fish-men clan has not ended yet. Eight hundred years have passed, and now the agreement and promise can be renewed."

"Neptune, why don't you dare to take that step forward?"

Ilumi deliberately took a step forward, and his words penetrated into Neptune's mind like magic sounds, stirring the whirlpool in his heart.

Neptune held the trident tightly with one hand and the armrest of the throne with the other hand. Veins popped up on his arms. He was hesitating.

"It seems that the chips are still not heavy enough."

Ilumi looked at the silent Neptune and decided to reveal a little more information.

"Then, let me tell you three more pieces of information."

"First, I have mastered the specific location of the ancient weapon Pluto!"

"Secondly, the specific information about the King of Heaven has also been obtained!"

"Thirdly, I also have information about Poseidon, the Emperor of the Sea, even though she has not yet been born."

Three sentences, the first sentence is true information, the second sentence is half-truth and half-false, and the third sentence can be regarded as a threat.

"you!?"

Sure enough, as soon as the third sentence came out, Neptune's eyes immediately widened, filled with incredible anger.
