If Sengoku doesn't pull back his net soon, I'll become the Pirate King!

Chapter 65 Bazel: I am mortal enemies with human traffickers, gambling, and drugs.

Bazel did not go to watch the battle between Hanafza and the corrupt navy.

They walked up to another group of pirates who were waving the flag of freedom but were actually engaged in the slave trade.

His gaze swept over his wary colleagues, finally settling on the blonde mermaid in the center of the crowd, who was tightly bound by chains.

and many more!

Bazel froze when he saw the female mermaid's face clearly.

That face...

He looks familiar...

"Is this someone you know?"

Amatsuki seemed to sense the danger and tightly hugged the man's arm with both hands.

"No, but we can't say we don't know her at all. We never expected that the mermaid these guys kidnapped would be her. We're really lucky."

Bazel bent down and picked up a flyer made of special animal hide from the ground.

Humans are not all bad; we should accept human culture!

The goldfish mermaid, Princess Otohime, the future queen of the Dragon Palace!

"M-Sir, if you take a fancy to someone..."

A bearded pirate approached, rubbing his hands together, and said with a fawning smile:

"Hey, you guys, hurry up and bring that mermaid over here! It's our gift to Lord Bazel!"

"Yes, Captain!!"

Instead of immediately punishing the group, Bazel crouched down and moved his palm closer to Otohime under Amaterasu Toki's increasingly pouting lips.

"Waaaaah!!" The goldfish mermaid struggled frantically.

But what Bazeir did next left the onlookers of the chaos wide-eyed.

The chains were snapped by the powerful hands that had been wrapped around them.

Bazel removed the gag binding the goldfish mermaid and smiled gently:

"You're safe now. Please step back for a moment. I'll escort you back to Fishman Island after I've dealt with things here."

When the bearded pirate saw Bazel helping the mermaid untie his bonds, he knew something was wrong. His eyes were glued to Bazel, but his feet were slowly backing away.

"Let's retreat!"

"That madman is trying to attack us! Everyone, prepare to retreat!"

"Yes, boss!!"

"Boss Bazel, those guys got away."

Babanuki, covered in blood, whispered a reminder to Bazeir.

Bazel unleashed his Observation Haki, and after confirming that there were no extra weak auras on the ship, several snake spirits fell from his sleeve.

"Awaken, Poison Ivy."

The white serpent spirit affectionately nuzzled Bazel's ankle before swimming into the sea at lightning speed, heading towards the pirate ship that was trying to leave the port.

"They can't escape; Poison Ivy will finish them off."

Sensing that Poison Ivy had boarded the pirate ship and entered the deep sea together, Bazel raised his right hand and made a fist in the direction the enemy had left.

Disintegrate, Poison Ivy, Poison Heart.

"Awaken, poisonous sea, devour the waves."

Then, under the watchful eyes of the fishmen and mermaids hiding in the coral hills.

The purple seawater surged back, piercing the coating on the pirate ship's surface, and swallowed the pirates who had tried to kidnap their comrades amidst a series of pitiful screams.

"You damned human, let go of Otohime!!!"

But at that moment, Neptune, who had not yet become the king of Ryugu Palace, charged in with an army.

"You humans are the most greedy demons! Princess Otohime always wanted to live in peace with humans, but you... but you!!!"

"Wait a minute, Neptune!"

Just as the trident was about to strike, the goldfish-man, whose legs had not yet split, stepped in front of Bazel.

"They saved me. If it weren't for him, I would definitely have been captured by those bad humans!!"

"Nice to meet you..."

Bazel stepped out from behind Otohime and looked up at Neptune.

"I am Bazel of the Beasts Pirates. As for saving the mermaid, please don't worry about it."

"I simply have an irreconcilable hatred for human traffickers, gambling, and drugs. It's either them or me; it's either them or me."

"this……"

Neptune looked bewildered and did not respond for a long time.

It wasn't until Otohime walked up to him that he realized what was happening, pulled his girlfriend close, and whispered:

"What exactly happened, Otohime? I rushed over as soon as I heard you were captured by humans while giving a speech at Geelong Korde Square."

"How come humans have suddenly become our benefactors?"

Otohime recounted the entire story in just a few words.

He then bent down in the direction of Bazell.

"Thank you so much for your help. If it's alright, I'd like to invite you to my home. Neptune and I will cook a meal ourselves to express our gratitude."

Hanafza arrived just then with his men, a large group of two hundred, all covered in blood.

They have their own, and they have their enemies.

"Bazaar, it's done. This mediation mission was a complete success!"

Seeing Neptune pick up his weapon again to stand guard, Bazel didn't care.

"Hanafza, the Beasts Pirates will be staying here for a few days. You are free to wander around, but..."

Bazeir's gaze swept behind Hanafza.

"You know what I hate, and I hope you won't touch that door to the underworld."

"Don't worry, Boss Bazel!"

"We are free pirates, fearless warriors of the beasts, and we would never become that kind of scum!!"

"That's right, that's right! The Beasts Pirates would never be scum or trash! We are the guardians of the Beasts' honor!"

Bazel waved his hand:

"Hanafza, take your people and go have some fun. Fishman Island is a place you only visit once in a lifetime."

Hanafza glanced at Neptune and the murloc army behind him, but didn't say anything to warn Bazel about his safety.

He just nodded.

"I understand. Leave the purchasing to me and Babanuki. You and Miss Shi can attend the banquet without worry."

"My little ones, let's go! The beautiful mermaid is waiting for us!!"

"Ooooh!!"

The Beasts Pirates sheathed their weapons and, following Hanafza, swarmed towards Coral Hill, the bustling port town of the Ryugu Kingdom.

"Please excuse me. Although Bazel's companion is a bit childish, he is a very reliable man in crucial moments."

Amatsuki stepped forward and smiled politely at Otohime and Neptune.

"My name is Amatsuki, and I am Bazel's lover. It's a pleasure to meet you all."

"I am Otohime. If you don't mind, we can call each other sisters."

Princess Otohime blinked, covered her mouth and chuckled as she swam to Toki's side, whispering an explanation:

"I won't steal your man, Neptune and I are already a committed couple."

Amatsuki's face flushed slightly: "I...I wasn't worried about that kind of thing!"

"Oh, don't be shy~"

Otohime, arm in arm with Amaterasu, walked toward Water Road.

"I was born with a special talent that allows me to sense other people's thoughts and emotions. Although I can't know the specifics, I can still sense some basic things."

"Neptune, invite your benefactor to take a Fish Taxi to Fishford Hills. I'll take Sister Shi to buy some fresh ingredients."

"Ah, Otohime, but I'm still working... This is a real headache."

Watching his partner get into the fish taxi and leave, Neptune could only look helplessly at Bazell.

"If you don't mind, I can show you around the Dragon Palace. After today's patrol, I'll take you to my house."

Bazel naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Oh dear, I've arrived just in time!"

Olga, riding a sea lizard, ran up to Bazel, followed by the slow-moving fishman Tom.

"We don't mind at all. It would be great to visit the super cool Dragon Palace."

"Right, Bazel?"

"She's Olga, Jhin's tagalong," Bazel introduced truthfully.

Olga jumped up and punched Bazel in the abs.

"That last sentence was unnecessary! I was just worried about Jhin, you stupid snake!"

"Haha~ Humans are really interesting."

Neptune ordered his soldiers to return to the Dragon Palace first, while he himself hailed a fish taxi.

"Please come up, gentlemen. As for this sea lizard..."

After exchanging a few words with Elizabeth, Neptune nodded and summoned a giant flounder with large bubbles on its back.

"Then you should take my personal transportation. Your body is indeed not well-suited for taxis."

Olga was stunned: (ｷ｀ﾟДﾟ´)!!

"The giant fish-man can actually communicate with Elizabeth!?"

Just then, Tom, who was strolling over, suddenly spoke up: "Neptune, it's been a long time!"

"Who are you……"

Neptune was stunned at first, then his face lit up with surprise:

"It's you, Tom! Didn't you go to the human world to learn how to build excellent ships!?"

"This time you're back, you probably won't leave again, right?"

Tom laughed heartily:

"I'm searching for a way to save Water Seven, but before that, I'm involved in the grand construction of an ideal nation where humans and giants can coexist!"

"Hahaha!!!"
