Chapter 373: #373 - Chapter 373 First Meeting with Shirahoshi

He nodded slowly, seemingly responding to Queen Otohime, but inwardly he was contemplating his next move.

As the mysterious figure who caused a stir in Mary Geoise, Jin-an knew that he had left no trace of his actions, making it difficult even for the World Government to track him down.

However, now a organization claiming to have 'connections' with him had suddenly appeared, which was obviously worth further investigation.

"Interesting..."

Jin-an whispered softly, his curiosity gradually turning into a motivation for action.

His gaze refocused on Queen Otohime, his tone still gentle but decisive:

"Thank you for your reminder; this organization is indeed worth my attention."

He smiled slightly, still appearing relaxed on the surface, but inwardly he had already decided to personally investigate the truth of this 'Savior Society'.

No matter who the leader of this organization was, Jin-an would not allow anyone to use his name, especially for unjust purposes.

Queen Otohime nodded, her worries slightly lessened.

She had deep faith in Jin-an's abilities, but she also knew that there were too many unpredictable dangers in this sea.

She hoped her reminder would help Jin-an, and that this powerful and mysterious man would continue to maintain his steadfastness and wisdom.

"If you need any help, Fish-Man Island is willing to fully support you,"

Queen Otohime added, her eyes full of sincerity.

She knew that facing such enemies, the strength of Fish-Man Island alone might not be enough, but she was willing to do her part for Jin-an, even if it was only insignificant support.

"Don't worry," Jin-an smiled slightly, his eyes flashing with confidence and composure, "Everything will be under my control."

His words were firm and powerful, as if no matter how strong the enemy was, he had the ability to completely disintegrate them.

Queen Otohime looked at Jin-an's firm expression, and the unease in her heart gradually dissipated.

She believed that this man could not only protect Fish-Man Island but also safeguard the peace and justice of this sea.

Even if the road ahead was full of thorns, Jin-an would lead them to break through all obstacles and move towards a brighter future.

Just as Jin-an and Queen Otohime were talking, a sweet childish voice broke their conversation:

"Mom, are you okay? I heard there were bad people here."

The voice was as crisp as a silver bell, with a hint of childish anxiety.

Following the source of the sound, a sweet-looking little mermaid hurriedly swam to Queen Otohime's side, her eyes showing obvious worry.

Her big eyes were like two clear pearls, shining with innocent light.

When Queen Otohime saw her, the seriousness on her face immediately faded, and her eyes showed deep love.

She gently reached out and stroked the little mermaid's soft hair, and said softly:

"I'm fine, Shirahoshi."

Her tone was as gentle as the ocean, with a power to soothe people's hearts.

The little mermaid Shirahoshi was still a little worried, her tender little face was full of concern, and her big eyes were fixed on Queen Otohime, as if trying to find more reassurance from her mother's expression.

Queen Otohime smiled slightly and introduced Jin-an to Shirahoshi:

"This Marine saved me, Shirahoshi."

Hearing this, Shirahoshi turned her gaze to Jin-an, who was standing aside.

She blinked her watery eyes, looking at the stranger in front of her with curiosity and gratitude.

She said sweetly, "Thank you, Marine big brother."

Her voice was soft and pure, as if without a trace of impurities.

Hearing this pure gratitude, Jin-an showed a gentle smile on his face, he nodded slightly, and responded:

"It's all I should do."

His voice was equally calm and warm, without the slightest arrogance or indifference.

At this time, Jin-an's eyes fell on Shirahoshi, and seeing her innocent appearance, he couldn't help but feel a trace of relief and tenderness in his heart.

The little girl in front of him seemed to be a pure land in this chaotic sea, no matter how turbulent the outside world was, she still maintained her purity and kindness.

Jin-an understood in his heart that it was precisely this innocent purity that made Queen Otohime particularly cherish and protect her daughter.

He smiled slightly, turned to Queen Otohime and said:

"You have a lovely daughter."

Hearing Jin-an's praise, Queen Otohime showed a gentle smile on her face, her eyes full of pride and satisfaction as a mother.

She gently put her arm around Shirahoshi, as if to protect the most precious treasure in the world tightly in her arms.

"Thank you," she responded gently, her eyes full of tenderness and love when she turned to Shirahoshi again, "Shirahoshi is my pride."

Shirahoshi snuggled in her mother's arms, a shy smile appeared on her face, her eyes still fixed on Jin-an.

Although she didn't fully understand the world of adults, she understood that the Marine big brother in front of her was a person worthy of trust and gratitude.

In this turbulent sea, although there were dangers everywhere, the atmosphere at this moment seemed particularly peaceful and warm because of this pure exchange.

Jin-an looked at the mother and daughter and couldn't help but feel a sense of peace.

At this moment, he seemed to see what he had always wanted to protect in his heart, which was a simple and pure happiness that transcended power and battle.

"You don't have to worry," Jin-an withdrew his gaze, his eyes showing a firm belief, "I will do my best to protect you and protect the peace of this sea."

Fish-Man Island's geographical location was extremely important. If the mermaids and fish-men here didn't distrust humans, he would have wanted Sengoku to set up a Marine branch here.

Queen Otohime nodded, her eyes full of gratitude and trust.

Shirahoshi looked at Jin-an with her clear eyes, as if engraving his reassuring figure in her heart.

Suddenly, a sharp light flashed in Jin-an's eyes, and his eyes quickly locked on the direction Basco Shot had fled.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if sensing something interesting.

After a moment, he said with a faint smile:

"Since everything is fine here, then I'll leave first."

Seeing this, Queen Otohime's heart tightened. After all, Jin-an had saved her life, and she hadn't had a chance to thank him properly, so she said a little anxiously:

"If you're not in such a hurry, I'd like to invite you to the palace as a guest to express my gratitude."

Her voice was gentle and sincere, with a hint of entreaty, hoping to keep this powerful savior.

However, Jin-an just waved his hand, his eyes with a hint of faint refusal.

He was never interested in these formal etiquette, and he had more important things to deal with.

"I have something to do, see you later."

Jin-an responded briefly, his tone with a hint of apology, but also with an unshakable determination.

As soon as his voice fell, his figure disappeared in an instant, as if he had never appeared, only a breeze gently brushed past, taking away the breath he left behind.
