Kamiya signaled Inugami and the others to calm down their auras a little.
After the shikigami complied, Isohime's distracted eyes finally focused on him with a vivid light.
"You're in my way!"
She opened her bloody mouth, revealing jagged, irregular and sharp tusks, and the two antlers-like horns on her head glowed with an evil light.
"Hey, you seem to be much tougher than the little can." Kamiya ignored Ishime's threat at all, "Yes, I hindered you, but at the same time I also saved you. After receiving the hammer from Ishime, what will come next
In the red tide, you probably won't survive. From this point of view, your life should belong to me. Now that I have captured you, I should be considered your master. It's best to correct your attitude when talking to me."
The mermaids were not as easy to talk to as the Crabs, so Kamiyagawa simply changed the friendly way of communicating with the natives of the sea, and his attitude became much stronger.
He had already figured it out just now.
There are still many things that remain unclear in Haiguo. Among those unsolved matters, perhaps some are related to the "tide of looking back on time".
If he wanted to conquer this special map of Haiguo, he had to figure out the truth behind it.
Talk and intimidation are all methods, as long as they are effective and you can get what you want and the information you want.
"Ouch."
The eyes of the Inugami on the side were filled with ferocious light, and his fangs were exposed, looking like he would eat Isohime alive at any time.
Gouzi is very good at using his appearance to build momentum for Kamiya, and this is not the first time he has done this.
Perhaps influenced by Kamiya's words, or perhaps intimidated by Inugami again, Isohime's thin shoulders trembled slightly.
The mermaids on the shore who had not slept to death could clearly hear the conversation just now. The princess was being humiliated by the frivolous man. They were all extremely angry, but due to the absolute difference in strength, they could not do anything.
Isohime raised her terrifying head, as if she couldn't accept Kamiyagawa's words: "Kill me."
"hehe."
"kill me!"
"Don't be so anxious. Being my prisoner is not necessarily a bad thing. I am the envoy from Gao Tianyuan, here to save the country of the sea. You mermaid clan are facing a huge crisis, aren't you? The red tide is coming, and the sea is coming.
The king of the country is about to be born. As for you, Ji Ji, you seem to want to become the king of the sea country, even at the cost of your life. Now that I am here, I can help you get whatever you want."
With one week of experience, Kamiya can easily understand the needs of the mermaid clan.
Judging from the last experience, Isohime will forcefully board Munakata Taisha Shrine even if she dies.
She must not be able to refuse the pie drawn by Kamiyagawa.
Moreover, there shouldn't be any problem if he bluntly stated that he was from Gaotianyuan. The red tide should have been caused by the underworld, and the mermaid clan obviously paid a heavy price because of the red tide. Thinking about it this way, they should not belong to the underworld side.
Sure enough, after hearing Kamiyagawa's words, Isohime was stunned for a long time.
"Are you from Takamagahara?"
"That's right."
"Come to save our mermaid clan?"
"To be precise, it is to save the country of the sea, including you mermaids."
Ji Ji seemed to have finally figured it out. She lowered her head and said in a hoarse voice, "I will be your prisoner, but I will let my people go."
"You seem to have made a mistake. It is a fact that you are my prisoner. This is true whether you agree or not. You cannot use this to make a deal with me."
"you……"
"However, I appreciate your courage. So I won't do anything to your people, don't worry."
Kamiyagawa didn't push Isohime too hard either.
Although it is a fact to capture her physically, it is also a good thing to allow her to initially identify with her "captive" status mentally.
Although she knows that the clown mermaid will definitely not be convinced by this, she will subconsciously assume this somewhat humiliating identity.
It is enough to establish the status of who is superior and who is inferior. There will be many ways to control her later.
This may be similar to the first steps of domestication.
Ji Ji is the "clan image" and leader of the mermaid clan. There is no difference between controlling her and controlling the entire mermaid clan.
"Okay, in that case, take me to your Shicun Island."
Kamiyagawa had heard the name of the mermaid stronghold of Ichisumashima before from the crab clan.
Hearing this, Ji Ji began to hesitate again.
Bringing such a huge threat back to the tribe seems to be suicidal no matter how you think about it.
"You have to understand that you have no right to refuse my request. If you take me to Shicun Island, nothing bad will happen, but if I go by myself, for you mermaid clan,
It should be an unacceptable disaster. In addition, the red tide is coming. As the savior of the sea country, I have a lot of things to do, and I want to know all the information related to the red tide that you mermaids have."
What Kamiyagawa said is absolutely true.
Ji Ji has also understood that this powerful foreigner seems to know the situation of Haiguo very well.
Did he really come to save Haiguo?
Think about what he did just now, saving the stupid crabs from the Crab clan, and saving himself...
Not to mention actually solving the red tide crisis, if this person is really willing to help the mermaid, then maybe it won’t be that difficult to ascend to the position of leader of the country in fifteen days, right?
…
Isohime agrees to take Kamiyakawa to Ichisugashima.
The mermaid clan's Iso Girl and Iwaobo Boss also reawakened under the control of the little tapir.
They looked at Kamiya River with quite resentful eyes, but they still had no choice but to dive into the sea to clear their way.
Kamiyagawa called out the whale again and summoned a skeleton whale to use as a tool to travel on the sea.
According to previous experience, the red tide should come on the night when the moon disappears. It is still safe to move around in the sea for the time being.
In addition, Kamiya did not put Ishime into the sea, but ordered her to stay with him.
The mermaid leader, who had more or less given up on struggling, did not resist and just followed the instructions.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Tell me about the red tide. You mermaids are more deeply affected by the red tide. You should know some things that even I don't know. I think this part of the information is useful for
You should have nothing to hide, and even if you tell the truth, there will be no harm to you and your tribe."
On the way, Kamiyagawa kept talking to Isohime.
Now there is another topic.
The latter was silent for a while. As a "captive", she didn't know how to face the arrogant man in front of her.
The mermaid princess didn't have any experience in this area. Anyway, she felt that even if she stayed by his side, she would feel a strange sense of humiliation.
But what this annoying man said is right. Even if all the information about the red tide is revealed, it will not have any real impact on the mermaid clan. On the contrary, if this man really comes to solve the red tide, he knows
The more land there is, the greater the possibility of the crisis being resolved.
Thinking about it this way, Isohime can accept Kamiyagawa's unpleasant attitude a little bit.
She spoke awkwardly, her voice still hoarse, as if there was a mouthful of phlegm stuck in her throat:
"The red tide originated two hundred years ago, when my mother disappeared. I was just born at that time, and I heard all relevant things from my tribe. After my mother disappeared, the sea turned dark red, strange and restless, like
Something is brewing, but no one knew at the beginning what kind of disaster would happen."
It sounds like Ji Ji is the daughter of the previous leader of the Sea Kingdom.
That is the princess of the sea.
Both sides of the Sea Kingdom are descendants of the three goddesses of Munakata. Kamiyagawa has become accustomed to this kind of thing, and will no longer subconsciously utter exclamations such as "So you still have a mother."
"Do you have any clues as to why your mother disappeared?"
The last queen of Haiguo disappeared mysteriously, which Kamiyagawa found quite suspicious.
Maybe it will be a breakthrough for the next investigation.
"We don't know the reason, but it seems that my mother went to Taqito Island before she disappeared."
Takito Island is named after Takito Himeiko, the youngest of the Munakata goddesses.
It’s the same as the Crab Clan’s Okatsu Island and the Mermaid Clan’s Ichisuma Island.
Kamiya asked: "Does Takito Island still exist?"
"It has sunk for a long time, but there are still ruins in the sea. Two hundred years ago, for a short period of time when the Crab Clan and the Mermaid Clan were still cooperating, both sides jointly sent elites to the ruins of Takidu Island buried in the deep sea.
Most of the people did not come back, and the few survivors were unconscious and unable to explain the situation there. The tribesmen who came back soon also died."
"The old man in the tribe said that that operation caused the Crab Clan and the Mermaid Clan to lose their most elite combat forces, and neither side was able to explore there anymore. From that time on, the Crab Clan, for some reason,
I completely abandoned the mermaids and completely hid in Otsushima.”
"Our tribe did not think about escaping and giving up at that time. They also tried to use the power of the tribe to find our mother and try to understand the unknown situation of Taqito Island and the changes in the sea."
"As a result, the red tide came suddenly and destroyed our homeland. The tribesmen living in the water were affected by the tide, were cursed, and turned into sea monsters..."
Isohime roughly told some of the information she knew.
When she told it, she didn't add too much emotion, she just told it in a straightforward manner, maybe because she was not willing to reveal her true emotions in front of Kamiyagawa.
The past experiences of the mermaid tribe may have been much more tragic than what she told.
"So, the mermaid clan has not tried to explore Taqito Island again for two hundred years?" Kamiya thought for a while and asked.
"There have been, but there has been no result. The tribesmen can't even get close to it. In fact, when we were strong, we did not achieve any results in joint exploration with the Crab tribe, let alone now... I think you can see it.
, we are very weak..."
"Well, if Taqito Island is really related to the red tide and your mother's affairs, then I will go and have a look." Kamiya's tone was calm, as if it were natural, and the calm sound of the waves swept his voice.
At the end of the week, Kamiya put "supporting the new ruler" before "solving the red tide crisis".
There is nothing wrong with the order in which things are handled.
Get the simpler, more time-sensitive tasks done first, and then focus on the bigger problems.
But now in the second week, his mentality has changed.
Because he encountered a strange "retrospective tide", his intuition told him that dealing with the red tide might be more urgent than supporting the new king.
This time I chose to get close to the mermaid forces because I originally came here for the red tide.
Isohime was stunned when she heard Kamiya's tone of voice that carried the safety of Haiguo so lightly. Her cloudy eyes were filled with some inexplicable waves:
"You...are really going to help us deal with the red tide?"
"Otherwise? Why am I telling you so much? To make you happy?"
"..."
Ji Ji stopped talking, but in order not to show obvious wavering, she chose to turn her head to the magnificent sea.
On the sea, the bright moon hangs alone, mysterious and quiet.
The skeleton whale moved forward slowly on the dark red sea, leaving behind a ripple of silvery light and ethereal blue light spots. There was a faint salty and moist taste in the air.
In the distance, the boundary between the sea and the sky seems to have disappeared. The colors are different, but they are integrated.
After being dazed for a while, Jiji heard the annoying man who claimed to be her master speak again: "The sea in Haiguo is very beautiful, if it is not red."
"Um……"
"By the way, Ji Ji, have you ever considered leaving the Sea Kingdom? The situation of you mermaids seems to be much worse than that of the crab clan. They can still support it a little longer, but you... leaving seems to be a better choice."
"We can't leave."
"Why?"
"I said, my people are burdened with a curse. We are trapped by the red tide and tied to our hometown of Shicun Island, which has fallen and become filthy. After leaving the scope of Shicun Island, as long as a day or so passes, I
The tribesmen will become...bubbles."
This time, Jiji couldn't hold back her emotions, and her tone and eyes became sad.
Kamiyagawa understood.
He was still wondering before. Because the Crab Shop Master still has the ability of Crab Princess, he can to some extent defend against the invasion of the red tide. If the mermaid clan wants to survive, they can choose to resolve the conflict between the two parties and move to Ozu Island to live with the Crab Clan.
.
No matter how big the conflict is, it is not as big as their own lives, right?
Now, according to Ji Ji, there is no way they can move.
During the conversation, time passed quickly.
The journey at sea lasted for more than two hours, and Kamiyagawa saw the outline of an island in the distance on the back of the whale.
It was an isolated island deep in the ocean, shrouded in fog and darkness.
Shrouded in a dense fog, the visibility around the island is very low. The sea breeze is much stronger in this area, bringing sounds from the fog from a distance, similar to bursts of resentful shouts and heart-wrenching sounds.
