Chapter 327 Murloc, a relic of the Dark Ages
Chapter 327 Murloc, a relic of the Dark Ages
Using a water escape ninjutsu, Qi Mu washed away the acid on his body.
When he first transformed into a stone man, his clothes were corroded by the acid. Although there was no one else here, Qi Mu still wanted to wear some clothes.
After some sorting, Qi Mu flew towards the place where there was life.
The body of the lantern fish is so big, it even has three stomachs. Each stomach has a radius of at least thirty meters, and those who didn’t know better thought it was a small pond!
Seeing this, Qi Mu knew that the lantern fish was not the one Straw Hat met, because the lantern fish Straw Hat met seemed bigger.
The lantern fish Straw Hat encountered was bigger than the island. The Thousand Miles of Sunshine could swim freely in the stomach of the lantern fish. There were several small islands in the stomach where dinosaurs could survive...
This lantern fish is obviously much smaller. The first stomach contained only pure gold, the second stomach only contained some incompletely digested fish, and the third stomach seemed to contain a boat.
After a while, I sensed that there were really more than a dozen living beings in this ship that was about to corrode.
Now that he knew that the person was in this place, Qi Mu was not too anxious.
Although he is not afraid of the people on the ship, he must analyze the intelligence as much as possible before boarding the ship. This is the basic principle of ninjas.
The broken ship was only about twenty meters long and had no flag, but judging from its style, it was definitely neither a warship nor a merchant ship.
In this case, these people on the ship are either pirates or bounty hunters!
With the result almost in mind, Qi Mu landed on the boat and asked, "Who are you?"
Lu Yujia: "Water, water..."
Saiki: "What did you say?"
Lu Yuyi: "I want to drink water..."
-------------------------------------
Qi Mu was surprised when he saw these people, because most of them were fish-men.
Use the water escape ninjutsu to perform a waterfall technique. This pure water is enough for them to drink.
After drinking the water, these fishmen continued to ask for food.
As for food, this is even simpler. Not long ago, I exchanged all the Devil Fruits at Big's place. Those are all superhuman food-powered users!
The long bread-eating fruit can turn any object into food. It is a top-notch superhuman fruit.
This fruit, Qimu, was exchanged for a full 4000 bounty coins according to the points given by the natural system.
Cut a piece of wood from a broken ship and cut it a little, and it turns into a delicious steak.
Seeing the delicious steak, the fishman who was almost dying of hunger started to eat it.
After the steak was gone, a relatively young fishman (shark) said dissatisfiedly: "Why is there only such a small amount of food? It's not enough for us at all!"
Qi Mu did not continue to make food. He said with some consolation: "You are all too hungry now. If you overeat, you will easily die, so I will only give you some food to cushion...
After half an hour, you can eat whatever you want, just be patient a little longer! "
After listening to Qi Mu's words, although many fishmen were dissatisfied, they still remained silent.
After all, the contradiction between murlocs and humans is huge. It would be a very good performance for these murlocs not to cut down all the trees!
Murlocs are not accepted by humans because the upper part of their bodies are fish and they look ugly.
However, fishmen are generally stronger than ordinary people, so they are often sold as slaves.
This is the irreconcilable conflict between fish people and humans, and it is also the reason why Qi Mu saved these fish people and they were not grateful.
-------------------------------------
But how did the fish-men appear? This question never seems to be answered.
Qi Mu has two guesses about the source of the fish-men's appearance.
The first one is that a long time ago, at least 800 years ago, some humans wanted to master stronger power, so they studied the genes of the Neptune class.
Clones with added ocean overlord genes appeared. However, these clones did not turn out as scientists thought, because the clones became half-humans, that is, fish people and mermaids.
The fish-men are upper body fish and lower body human. They retain the bloodthirsty of fish and are full of hatred for the world.
The mermaid has a human upper body and a fish lower body. It retains the gentleness of human beings and is full of longing for the world.
However, neither fishmen nor mermaids are truly human beings, and therefore are not accepted by humans.
The fishmen and mermaids who were not accepted were not killed, but were driven to the remote sea.
After a long period of time, mermaids and fishmen gradually multiplied, forming two controversial races in the pirate world.
The second guess, which may be more terrifying, is that humans were once slaves.
A long time ago, humans were not fully developed and could not sail on the sea.
At that time, humans were mainly tribes, and there were some humans living on every small island.
The fish in the pirate world are all somewhat intelligent, and this kind of fish can be compared to a 'demon'.
The war is fought between humans and demons, and the losing side becomes a slave.
Then the fishman appeared.
Which of these two guesses is it? Fishmen are all products of the Dark Ages.
-------------------------------------
After using his ability to make some cakes, Qi Mu asked calmly: "How did you get in here?"
A slightly gentle-looking fishman replied: "We are all prisoners captured by pirates, and we intend to sell them to Chambord as slaves.
But something unexpected happened, and the pirates encountered a storm. As a result, the pirates who couldn't swim for a long time were wiped out, and we, who were able to go deep into the sea freely, were temporarily saved.
We thought we had been saved, but we happened to encounter lantern fish that were out looking for food.
The lantern fish mistook the boat for food and swallowed it in one gulp.
Relying on the food from the ship, we lasted for almost three months, but the food also ran out ten days ago..."
After listening, Qi Mu almost understood, but he was still a little confused and asked: "Don't you fish people have a good relationship with the lantern fish? Why doesn't it let you out?"
A fishman with a crocodile head said angrily: "Who did you hear that you have a good relationship? The ocean is full of big fish eating small fish, and small fish eating shrimps. How can you not eat the food that reaches your mouth?"
Embarrassed, Qi Mu quickly changed the subject: "Where do you live? I will send you out later, but I don't have time to send you home right now..."
Lu Yujia: "What? Can you go out? Can you also take us out?"
Saiki: "Yes! I can take you out, but this is a new world. I wonder if you will be safe?"
The relatively gentle fishman at first replied: "It would be great if you could send us out, and there will be no problem in the new world. After all, we are all fishmen, and we can definitely swim in the sea..."
Saiki: "Okay then! After you guys have eaten your fill, I will use the door fruit to open a passage in the lantern fish, and let's go out together!"
Lu Yuyi: "Then let's eat first!"
Qi Mu: "..."
