"Shirahoshi?!"
"Where did you go?"
"What are those?"
When Neptune and Otohime saw Shirahoshi leading in two seemingly ordinary and even somewhat ugly little fish, their faces were clearly filled with worry.
Today, Fish-Man Island had experienced too many events, causing great unrest throughout the island.
First was the impact of the Red Line splitting apart.
This caused chaotic ocean currents in multiple deep-sea areas and even triggered eruptions in some undersea volcanoes. The sea kings' nests near Fish-Man Island were also disturbed.
If not for the enormous double-layer soap bubbles acting as a barrier, these currents might have disrupted the entire Fish-Man Island.
Neptune had already sent mermaid soldiers to investigate the source of the disturbance, and they would soon discover that it was due to the Red Line splitting.
This undoubtedly brought many benefits to Fish-Man Island.
This meant that pirates, merchants, and others no longer had to risk their lives to come to Fish-Man Island; they could directly pass through the gap to reach the New World.
Most of the population disappearance on Fish-Man Island was due to these humans.
Pirates and slave traders were the main factors, and aside from a few strong individuals like Jinbei, most residents were quite weak and unable to fight these villains.
If not for Fish-Man Island flying the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates, this place would have long turned into a paradise for pirates and a hell for mermaids.
There were drawbacks, of course, but compared to the benefits, they were almost negligible.
The main issue was trade.
Many goods on Fish-Man Island were brought by human merchants from the surface.
But this wasn't a big deal, as Fish-Man Island had its own caravans that went to the surface to purchase these items.
Additionally, Otohime had spent the entire day contacting the World Government via Den Den Mushi.
The result, as expected, was that the World Government did not answer her call.
Otohime didn't know the reason, but this unknown caused extreme anxiety within her.
The process of collecting signatures from Fish-Man Island residents had already faced many obstacles. People were reluctant to sign, as they didn't believe humans would coexist peacefully with them.
They couldn't let go of their hatred.
Now, with the World Government causing issues, it had dealt a significant blow to Otohime's spirit.
Throughout the day, she had numerous thoughts of giving up.
And finally, the sudden disappearance of Shirahoshi nearly turned Ryugu Palace upside down.
"Sharky~"
Megalo, seeing Shirahoshi return, sighed in relief. He had been worried sick, rushing to her side.
But then he noticed the two little fish beside Shirahoshi.
Megalo assumed they were snacks Shirahoshi brought for him, opening his mouth to swallow Magikarp and Feebas.
"No!!!"
Smack! Smack! Smack!
Shirahoshi, who never hit anyone, swatted Megalo's face several times with her beautiful pink tail.
The others, including Otohime, were stunned. They never expected the usually timid Shirahoshi to act so boldly, clearly causing quite a shock.
At the same time, they realized that something must have happened to Shirahoshi that they didn't know about.
"Father, Mother, my three brothers, this is Magikarp and Feebas. They are Pokémon living on Pokémon Island and my good friends."
Shirahoshi lowered her head, feeling a bit guilty and not daring to look at her family. She then quietly added, "I went to Pokémon Island to play with them."
"Pokémon?"
As a king, Neptune immediately picked up on the recent waves stirred by this term in the sea.
Although Fish-Man Island received news later than the surface, they had still heard rumors of Pokémon Island being a new world. However, they didn't believe it.
"How could you go out without telling your family? Come here, lie down!"
Otohime, with her somewhat blunt nature, didn't immediately grasp the significance of Pokémon. Otherwise, she would have been even more concerned than Neptune.
Now, she only thought about properly disciplining Shirahoshi.
"Mother!"
"Let's not do this..."
"Shirahoshi is still a child."
The three princes of Fish-Man Island, clearly having a protective streak for their sister, hurriedly moved to stop Otohime.
Shirahoshi's overly timid nature in the future was undoubtedly due to the overwhelming protection and pampering from her three brothers and her father, Neptune.
"Ahem."
Magikarp swam to Shirahoshi's side, shaking its tail.
"What are you doing?! Get out of my way. Today, I must discipline this girl!"
Otohime was different from the men in her family.
Although she usually spoiled Shirahoshi, she never hesitated to discipline her when necessary. She knew that if even she didn't discipline Shirahoshi, the girl would be completely spoiled.
If Otohime entered a certain state, even though she was still weak, her authority was enough to overpower her three sons.
At this moment, the three princes dared not intervene further.
The more they tried to persuade, the more Otohime would insist.
"Get your bottom up!"
Otohime yelled at the whimpering Shirahoshi, who was lying on the bed.
"Waaa!!!"
Despite her size, Shirahoshi was still not even six years old. Being scolded by her mother was too much for her to bear.
Her cries were almost enough to break the walls, yet she obediently knelt on the bed and lifted her bottom.
"Ahem."
"Blub."
Magikarp and Feebas exchanged glances, seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes.
They knew they couldn't protect Shirahoshi right now.
So...
A rainbow light filled the room, marking the first Pokémon evolution in this world!
Shirahoshi's presence had brought endless benefits to Magikarp and Feebas. Magikarp had long met the conditions for evolution, but it was waiting for Feebas.
Feebas, due to its different environment, was very confident and never felt ugly, making evolution not difficult.
In the Pokémon world, the most well-known water Pokémon are undoubtedly two kinds.
Gyarados and Milotic.
The former for its fierce appearance and strength.
The latter for its unparalleled beauty, often called the 'Empress of Pokémon,' regarded as the most beautiful Pokémon.
Key to their fame were two champions.
One was Wallace, the water-type champion of the Hoenn region, a master of the Pokémon Contest, renowned worldwide, with a Milotic as his trump card.
The other was Lance, the flying-type champion of the Johto region, former Kanto region's flying-type Elite Four, a descendant of an ancient dragon family, with Gyarados as his ace.
"Huh?!"
Shirahoshi stopped crying, watching her two friends transform with some confusion.
The figures in the rainbow light grew larger and more elongated.
Soon, they surpassed Shirahoshi and her three brothers in height, reaching over six meters before stopping.
At that moment, the rainbow light faded, revealing Magikarp and Feebas in their new forms.
Gyarados.
Milotic.
Symbols of power and beauty.
Their appearance brought a small Pokémon shock to everyone present.
Even Neptune snapped out of his thoughts, dumbfounded by the two Pokémon before him.
Though Gyarados and Milotic still seemed slender to Neptune, their over-six-meter height was incredibly impressive to the three princes and Otohime.
Otohime, now calmed, no longer felt the urge to discipline Shirahoshi and began contemplating what Shirahoshi had mentioned earlier, frowning in thought.
"Waaa!!!"
Unexpectedly, Shirahoshi cried even louder.
"Roar?"
"Yoo?"
Gyarados and Milotic turned to Shirahoshi, puzzled by her crying.
"Where...where did you take Magikarp and Feebas?"
Terrified but courageous, Shirahoshi sat up and questioned the strange new Pokémon before her.
She had no idea about Pokémon evolution!
