Chapter 339： Arrive at Dragon Palace

A few hours ago, Fishman Island, Mermaid's Bay.

A few cute mermaids found a sealed wooden barrel and were very curious, so they took tools such as crowbars to pry it open.

When the lid of the wooden barrel was just lifted, a gloomy voice came from inside: "Hu~This is enough~"

The mermaid with the crowbar was so frightened that he sat down on the ground: "What? Is there anyone inside?"

Sure enough, a sloppy, deceitful man came out from inside.

"Ah!"

"Go to the pool!"

The mermaids screamed and turned to run, but it was too late.

"Ha, it's too late, thank you, Miss Mermaid!"

The man opened his arms excitedly, and a swamp appeared on the ground.

"Wow! The body is sinking!"

"Swamp? Why is there a swamp on the rocks?"

The more the mermaids struggled, the deeper they sank.

This is the Cariboo that Franky nailed in the barrel on the Sonny.

After being released, he directly activated the "Swamp Fruit" ability on the mermaids.

"The swamp and the quagmire can't be broken free. I'm sorry to tell you that I am a capable person, don't yell at me, or I will kill you!"

Caribou looked at them wickedly.

"Someone..."

A mermaid who had sunk most of its body was about to scream, but was blocked by a mass of mud.

"Didn't I tell you to keep quiet? You idiot!"

The merfolk sink deeper and deeper, and eventually are completely engulfed by the swamp.

Caribou sat on a rock, and counted it very happily: "A mermaid is 70 million Baileys at the auction house, these few add up to... Hee hee, thank you so much for the straw hat and the devil. Sword!"

Back to the present.

Coral Hills.

A small murloc garrison came over and asked the nearby murlocs about the situation.

"The Straw Hats, did they kidnap the mermaid girl?" said the captain of the murloc garrison.

A merman defended: "No, no, they are good people, not to mention, they are Kemi's friends."

Captain: "Perhaps Kemi was threatened by them."

Mermaid: "No...no..."

The squad leader continued: "At the time, our garrison team, the mermaid girls, and the Straw Hats were at the scene."

The soldier next to him added: "Humans have a reason to kidnap mermaids at any time, because in the world above, young mermaid girls can be sold for high prices!"

Mermaid: "Nevertheless, it is baseless suspicion..."

Murloc soldier: "You don't even think about it, so far, how many pirates have pretended to be kind to approach the mermaid, and were eventually taken away!"

Night Barry New Town.

Luffy and the others are heading to Ryugu Castle in the princess' pet shark Mesaro.

"Don't fall! Hohohoho!" King Nepton reminded everyone sitting on his pet whale Hoai.

Luffy said, "What are you doing, uncle, your shouting is so stupid!"

Papago was shocked when he heard the words: "Shut up! Straw hat! Impolite guy! I'm really scared of you!"

Dealing with Luffy's rudeness, King Nipton didn't care at all: "Hohohoho, this shark is called Messaro, the little girl's favorite pet! At that time, she thought that Messaro would never come back, and cried. It was a complete mess, at that time I was really helpless, I didn't expect to be chased by the North Sea Giant Monster, thanks to you for saving it!"

Papagu gently touched Mesaro: "Is this the pet of Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

At this time, Brooke suddenly said: "Hey? Brother Papago, you seem to have said that you are a friend of the mermaid princess."

Papagu was shocked when he heard the words, and quickly made a "shush" gesture to Brooke.

Brooke dropped a cold sweat: "It turned out to be a lie."

Because Nepton said that the straw hats were invited, Kemi seemed a little shy: "I... can I go to Dragon Palace too?"

Usopp smiled: "He said he can bring friends, so it doesn't matter, right?"

Nipton said: "Actually, I just sent the children to greet you, but I didn't come back after waiting for a long time, so I went out in person! I'm also looking forward to the cooking of the banquet to start sooner! By the way, by the way, you guys One of my fellow swordsmen has entered the city."

Usopp: "Hey? Is it Chen Qi or Zoro?"

Nepton touched his head: "The name seems to be...Sorley!"

Usopp cold sweat: "Is it Sauron?"

Neptune: "Anyway, the soldiers will soon find all your partners and come to the city, please rest assured!"

Luffy: "Nami, did you see where they went?"

Nami: "Franky said he went to Mr. Tom's relatives, and Robin went to find some important history...Everyone is splitting up."

Luffy: "Didn't you see Chen Qi?"

Nami: "No, you didn't see it either?"

Usopp: "No, where did that guy go? Even Sauron has arrived at the Dragon Palace. Isn't that guy lost?"

Luffy: "Don't worry about him, that guy is terribly strong."

Then Nami turned her head and said to Nepton, "That's right, uncle!"

Papagu slapped her on the back of the head: "It's the sea god! It's called His Majesty Neptune! You bastard!"

Nami: "This is 10,000 meters under the sea, but why is only Fishman Island bright?"

Neptune smiled: "Hohoho, it's not that the location of Fishman Island is bright, this is the only seabed in the world where light can be seen, and the fishmen have settled here from a long time ago, which formed the fishmen. island."

Next, the king explained to everyone why there was light here.

Because there is a number called "Sun Tree Adam" on the bottom of the sea here, it can transmit the sunlight on the ground directly to the bottom of the sea, and the roots of the tree grow here.

Nami felt a little magical: "Sunshine? That means this tree has more than 10,000 meters of glowing roots?"

Neptune continued: "That's right, although scholars can tell a lot of great truths, this is indeed a mysterious tree that can transmit sunlight to the roots of the ground, and the roots of the tree can also breathe directly into the air. Teleport to the bottom of the sea."

Luffy put his hand between his eyebrows and looked at the thick towering tree, and couldn't help but sigh: "This is like the 'motivated mangrove' of the Chambord Archipelago!"

Before everyone spoke, they had reached the Dragon Palace.

The scene in front of them made everyone bright.

It is in the shape of an exquisite tower of hundreds of meters, and there is a circular plaque above the main entrance with the word "Dragon" written on it. A lifelike dragon hovers at the top.

It is truly a magnificent, beautiful and incomparable palace.

There was a huge button on the front door, which Nepton pressed.

"It's me, open the door!"

"Oh, Your Majesty, you are back..."
