Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!

Chapter 127 Past and Present

Sun Pirates.

Captain—[Murloc Hero] Fisher Tiger.

This is a pirate group whose members are mostly murlocs and mermaids, and the symbol on its black flag is the crimson sun mark.

This is a very special mark, completely different from the common skull flag, and its origin is also extraordinary.

This sun imprint was born out of the symbol of the Tianlong people - the hoof of the Tianxiang dragon!

Most of the members of the Sun Pirates were once slaves of the Celestial Dragons.

In order to completely get rid of the past as slaves, Tiger and the others kept the red circular pattern inside the Tianxiang Dragon's hoof, and at the same time covered the surrounding four dragon claws with a circle of burning "flames."

The logo of the Sun Pirates was born from this.

Every murloc who joins the Sun Pirates will have this mark on their body somewhere.

Firstly, to show his identity as a member of the Sun Pirates;

Second, it is to completely cover up the "past" of those companions who were slaves.

The members of the Sun Pirates know very well that it is a mark of shame that cannot be erased, and it is also a painful past that should never be known to outsiders!

Fisher Tiger and his colleagues think so.

The future 【Empress】Boa Hancock also thinks so.

...

Tiger led a group of his companions and successfully landed at the pier of the Murloc village.

Among them are [Haixia] Jinpei, who may become one of the seven martial arts under the king in the future, and [Sawtooth] Aaron, who directly affected Nami's life.

Of course, they are just members of the Sun Pirates now.

But even in the same pirate group, these people still have certain differences.

The core part of it lies in the "attitude towards human beings".

The radical faction headed by Aaron believes that the human species should be extinct, and that humans and murlocs are completely opposite sides of the same situation.

The conservatives headed by Jinbei are more inclined to hope to coexist peacefully with humans and eliminate the barriers between them.

Of course, in addition to these two factions, there are also some mediocre factions who are happy with the situation and have little influence.

Fisher Tiger himself is the "fulcrum" that balances these ideas.

As long as he is there, no matter how big the differences within the Sun Pirates are, everyone will still have the opportunity to sit down and have a good talk.

Perhaps it can be said that Fisher Tiger himself is the "sun" of the Sun Pirates!

...

In the murloc village, the residents of Alabasta and the murlocs coexist peacefully.

Such a situation fell into Aaron's eyes, so he was naturally very upset.

"Tsk, murlocs who have taken refuge in humans, have they forgotten how humans have treated us?"

Hatred cannot be eradicated overnight.

Jinbe on the side said in a deep voice: "This is what I want you to see, Aaron, it is possible for humans and murlocs to coexist peacefully!"

"Hahahaha, it's just superficial work, how can humans allow people of other races to live with them?"

Aaron's eyes widened, and he said with a sinister smile: "As long as there is a chance, they will rule out all the existence of 'abnormal'!"

The words are talking.

Suddenly, an abandoned person from the Kingdom of Aden passed in front of Aaron.

The abandoned person came to Alabasta with Shiruluk to hand over business matters.

As we all know, people who participate in long-distance voyages must have some "self-protection ability".

Therefore, the body of the abandoned man was quite burly, and after the increase of the crystal ghost virus, his size was almost the same as that of ordinary murlocs.

Such a "heterogeneous" covered in crystal armor swaggered down the street, naturally attracting the attention of everyone in the Sun Pirates.

What surprised them even more was that the residents of the surrounding murloc village, whether they were humans or murlocs, seemed to be accustomed to the appearance of the "crystal man".

There was even an aunt who waved to him with a smile and handed him her own fruit.

"That... that is..."

Aaron couldn't help being stunned.

And Aaron's gaze also caught the attention of the abandoned man.

"Oh, are the murlocs from overseas?"

The abandoned man stretched out his hand towards the tall sawtooth sharkman, grinning and said, "Welcome to the Universal Alliance!"

"Four Seas Alliance..."

Aaron frowned, and stepped forward to hold the hand of the abandoned man.

An unimaginably huge force was faintly transmitted from the hands of the abandoned man.

Aaron's pupils couldn't help shrinking slightly.

He was very sure that if that crystal man really wanted to, the other party was fully capable of crushing his own bones!

Although Aaron doesn't think he will lose if he fights seriously...

Then again, what exactly is that "creature"? I have never heard of such a race in the sea!

"Hahahaha, is this the Universal Alliance?"

Jinbe patted Aaron's shoulder, smiled and sighed: "Look, Aaron, the sea is huge, and there are many things you haven't seen before!"

"Tsk..."

Aaron smacked his lips and turned his head to one side.

...

Not far away, Tiger and Huoka slammed each other's chests.

boom!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

There was a hearty laugh.

If Tiger gave the slaves in the Holy Land Mariejoa a chance to resist, then Huoka was the first group of slaves who seized the opportunity, responded to Tiger and rose up to resist.

Therefore, although the two have known each other not long ago, they are as close as old friends.

"Speaking of which, this is really a nice place!"

Tiger looked around, but didn't see the usual fearful eyes.

Those humans living in the Murloc Village were either slaves, or pioneers who moved from other places in Alabasta, or merchants at the Yaruga Wharf.

All in all, in this "murloc village", humans and murlocs have indeed achieved peaceful coexistence, even as equals!

That is... what is that crystal man? It looks really eye-catching.

Tiger wanted to ask, but he always felt a little impolite, so he didn't ask.

Huoka then led Tiger and his companions around the Murloc Village.

While listening to Huoka's introduction, Tiger discovered some "strangeness".

He poked Tiger suddenly, and said in a deep voice, "Are you usually... just naked?"

"Hahahaha, Boss Tiger, stop joking!" Huoka laughed and said, "We murlocs often go into the water, so there's no need to wear so many clothes, right?"

"No, that's not what I meant."

Tiger thought for a while, and finally asked in a low voice: "I see that the Tianxiang Dragon's hoof brand on your body... is still there."

"Oh, you said that."

Huoka nodded, "Yes, it's still there, that thing can't be eliminated."

"Then why not cover him up, or cover him with something else?"

Tiger was very puzzled.

After all, in his opinion, that period of history is absolutely extremely shameful and must not be known by outsiders.

But Huoka's expression was beyond Tiger's expectation.

He stared into Tiger's eyes, and said with surprise: "Boss Tiger, why are we afraid that others will see our past? It was not our fault at that time!"

"Um?"

Tiger was taken aback.

Huoka continued: "No matter how much you escape, the 'past' cannot be changed, but..."

Huoka suddenly clenched his fists, grinning and said:

"'Now' can be changed."

Hearing this, Tiger paused, and suddenly asked: "Who taught you this truth?"

"Lian Rowan."

Huoka smiled and explained: "He is a good human emperor."

Tiger asked again: "Are you his subordinate?"

"No."

Huoka shook his head, "He is my friend."

Tiger was silent again.
