บท 85: In Sabaodi Again

Upon hearing Giotto's sincere words, a smile appeared on Jinbei's face. He acknowledged the man in front of him not because of his strength but because of his character.

Although this was the first time they met, he felt as if he knew Giotto very well. The person who could say words like "Race does not represent one's worth" was definitely a person worthy of respect.

"Mission: Recruiting native world powerhouses as External Advisors(1/5)"

Hearing the system's notification, Giotto was certain that someone like Jinbei, who was one of the famous characters in the future, met the system's criteria.

If that were the case, then it should be easy. Most people who were not that famous yet would be easier to recruit than those who had already made a name for themselves in the sea.

"Thank you, but I can't leave Fish-Man Island right now. Big Brother Tiger entrusted this place to me, so I have to protect this place for the time being." At this time, Jinbei was a bit apologetic. He had already decided to become a member of Vongola, but he could not leave.

"It doesn't matter. No matter where you are, it will not change the fact that you are now a member of our Vongola. If there is anything you need help with, use this Den Den Mushi to contact Reborn!"

As he spoke, Giotto handed a Den Den Mushi to Jinbei and continued, "However, I suggest you to get to Secon Island as fast as possible. After all, you must have enough strength to protect your home, right?"

Indeed, strength was everything in this sea. As long as you had enough strength, no matter what you wanted to protect, it was fine.

"Yes, I understand. When big brother Tiger comes back, I will immediately go to Secon Island. Before that, please allow me to do something for my homeland!" Jinbei nodded. He also wanted to improve his strength, and he certainly had heard about the rumors about how good of a teacher baby in suit was. However, now that Fisher Tiger was not around, he couldn't leave Fish-Man Island just yet.

As for the offer to become the guard in Ryugu Kingdom...

Forget it. If the guards of Ryugu Kingdom were really capable, then this island would not need Whitebeard's protection.

After a brief exchange with Jinbei, Giotto turned around and left. "See you next time Jinbei, I have other things to deal with. Keep in mind what I just said. No matter what kind of difficulties or how strong an enemy you face, the Vongola Family will always be behind you!"

Not only for Jinbei but for everyone in the Family!

Watching Giotto leave, Jinbei's respectful look didn't fade as he watched him disappear from his sight.

"Big brother Arlong, where is that damned human?" At this moment, a group of Fishmen rushed over. Their faces were filled with anger as they looked at their fallen comrades.

However, at this time, Arlong unexpectedly glared at them and coldly said, "Humans are all damned bugs. I will never change my mind. However, Jinbei, that fellow just now is indeed different. Even I have to agree with his words..."

"Arlong, you... you can agree with humans?" Jinbei looked at Arlong with surprise. He had known him for so long, and he never thought that there would be a human that the Arlong would acknowledge.

This was really unexpected!

"Don't get me wrong, Jinbei, I only agree with him that Fish-Men are as noble as Noble Knights. Other than that is bullshit!" Along then turned around and left.

However, he didn't know if it was an illusion, but Jinbei felt that the gaze Arlong had when he looked at him seemed to have a trace of... envy?

Vongola Family was really special!

Could he ask them to let Along join? It would be quite good if he could change Along's thoughts through this.

However, it seemed quite challenging. Moreover, Primo-sama probably would not agree with Along, right?

Forget it, let's take things one step at a time. If an opportunity arises, it wouldn't hurt to try.

After leaving Fish-Man District, Giotto did not stay too long on this island. After all, at this time, there were not that many people who piqued Giotto's interest. Apart from Jinbei and Fisher Tiger, who had not yet returned, the only one left was Queen Otohime, who hoped to live peacefully with the humans.

However, Giotto couldn't just go to King Neptune that he was there for his wife, right?

That just didn't sound right for some reason.

And although she was a capable woman, she was not suitable to be a member of the Vongola Family.

Soon after leaving Fish-Man Island, Giotto once again set foot on Sabaodi Archipelago. This island had not changed ever since a few years ago.

If he had to say, there were more pirates on this island than a few years ago. Those people who went out to sea because of the Great Pirates Era kept increasing as time passed.

And the people with strength naturally wanted to enter the New World, so they naturally came to this Sabaodi Archipelago in order to coat their ship and continue their voyage through Fish-Man Island's route.

I don't know what was so attractive about the treasure left by Roger. Was it the One Piece itself, or the title of the Pirate King?

"Long time no see, Shakky-senpai. If it's possible, just give me the cheapest wine here."

Since he had come to Sabaodi, the only place he'd visit was this small bar. Although Shakky would always give an unreasonable price for drinks, staying there was much more comfortable than outside.

Especially now that he was famous. He might be recognized, and then...

Trouble followed!

There was another reason why Giotto didn't want to drink outside. Sabaodi Archipelago was often visited by Celestial Dragons. Giotto couldn't guarantee that he could restrain himself from beating up those disgusting people on sight.

And once he did,..

Marine Admirals would show up, and then there would be more and more trouble. That was not what Giotto wanted to happen.

"If it isn't little Giotto. Why did you come to me again? Or are you here to buy intel again? But then again, the famous Vongola Primo doesn't need to come personally, right?

When Shakky saw Giotto, he smiled and immediately said, "So, are you here for that old man Rayleigh?"
