"Your Majesty, do you know where Jinbe of the Sea is currently located?"

"I'm afraid I don't know their whereabouts, but I will send someone to locate them immediately," Neptune replied.

Hearing this, Admiral Roja frowned slightly. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

With that, Roja waited patiently. Meanwhile, the banquet officially began.

Dozens of mermaids danced gracefully before them, their flowing movements captivating all in attendance.

Elsewhere…

Far from the grandeur of the Ryugu Palace, in a remote, desolate area roughly 10,000 meters away.

This location was in stark contrast to the lively palace, overgrown with seaweed and untouched for at least a decade.

In this abandoned and eerie spot, two familiar figures with dark red and blue-toned skin emerged—Fisher Tiger and Jinbe.

The two Fish-Men had come after receiving news of a human who had mistakenly wandered into this area and sustained injuries. Their natural compassion for humans drove them to investigate, intending to return to meet Roja afterward.

However, what awaited them was no injured human but none other than Hody Jones!

Tiger and Jinbe immediately recognized Hody Jones, a younger Fish-Man notorious for his radical supremacist beliefs.

Fisher Tiger glared at Hody and demanded, "Hody Jones, what is the meaning of this?"

Hody sneered, his flat cap adorned with a trident emblem casting a shadow over his wild eyes. His wolfskin scarf swayed slightly as he crossed his arms, revealing tattoos stretching across his muscular left arm.

"Jahahaha! What do I mean? I mean, I've come to stop you!"

"Stop us? Stop us from what?" Tiger asked, his brows furrowed in confusion.

Hody's sharp grin widened, his fangs bared. "Oh, Captain Tiger, Brother Jinbe... You two are heroes to all Fish-Men! Captain Tiger, especially—you stormed Mariejois with your bare hands, liberating countless slaves! Even I once admired you... but!!!"

Hody's face darkened, and an ominous aura emanated from him.

"I can't stand the fact that you intend to meet with the so-called 'White Dove,' Admiral Roja, to seek peace between Fish-Men and humans!"

At this, Fisher Tiger and Jinbe exchanged puzzled glances.

Neither of them was aware that Admiral Roja was the same mysterious figure who had once saved Tiger from the brink of death.

Regardless, they hoped to establish dialogue with the admiral, believing his influence could improve relations between humans and Fish-Men.

Hody Jones, however, a staunch supremacist, would never allow such an alliance.

"You two disgust me! How could you lower yourselves to seek peace with humans?!" Hody growled. "Humans should serve us as slaves! You dare to betray our race with such weakness!"

Fisher Tiger stepped forward, his voice calm but firm. "Hody Jones, I've seen your type before. Misguided and consumed by hatred. Your way is a dead end."

"Dead end?!" Hody snapped, his eyes blazing with madness. "No, Tiger! It is your way that is wrong! Coexistence with humans is a farce. The Fish-Men are the superior species! Enough talk—it's time to settle this!"

Hody reached into his pouch and pulled out a handful of ominous, glowing pills.

Tiger and Jinbe's eyes widened.

"E.S. pills?! How did you get those?!" Jinbe exclaimed.

Hody smirked, holding the pills aloft. "From the Tamatebako in the Dragon Palace, of course! Did you really think Neptune's cherished treasure held anything else? These Energy Steroids are the key to true power!"

Fisher Tiger grimaced. "Hody, those pills will destroy your body. You're inviting your own demise!"

Unfazed, Hody downed a dozen of the pills in one go.

"Buzz!"

The pills coursed through his veins, causing his muscles to swell grotesquely. His veins bulged, straining against his skin, while his aura grew increasingly feral.

Even in the stillness of the desolate area, Tiger and Jinbe could hear Hody's heart pounding like a war drum.

"You fool!" Tiger shouted. "Do you understand the cost of what you've done?!"

Hody's eyes glowed with unbridled rage. "Save your lectures, Tiger! I will prove my way is superior—through strength alone!"

Before they could react, Hody charged at Tiger with blinding speed, his newfound power making him nearly unrecognizable.

"I'll go first!" Jinbe interjected, leaping forward to intercept.

"Fish-Man Karate: Five Thousand Brick Fist!"

Jinbe's powerful punch—a strike strong enough to shatter five thousand bricks—landed squarely on Hody's chest.
