East China Sea, northwest.
A pirate flag with a serrated shark pattern flutters in the air.
This is Aaron Park.
As the base of the fishman gang led by Aaron, there are towering buildings similar to the naval base. The main entrance to the south stands above the sea, and welcomes the octopus pot that mainly relies on Xiao Ba. There is also a small door to the east that leads to the nearby village.
"It's still the same here..."
Nami, who returned from the flight, looked around with a smile: "There are so many people who wish you to die, can't you be more vigilant?"
"Is this necessary?"
Aaron was wearing short-sleeved shorts and waved his hand indifferently: "We fishman are the real spirits of all things. Humans resisting fishman is equivalent to violating the laws of nature! If someone is so blind, I don't mind giving him a lesson!"
"You are racist..."
Nami walked straight to Aaron: "I will be able to raise 100 million Baileys soon. You should still remember the original agreement?"
"How could I forget?"
Aaron showed a generous smile: "Agreement is an agreement! Even if I die, I will not break my promise! As long as you bring 100 million Baileys to me, I will return both Cocoaxi Village and Freedom to you!"
"Please keep cheering!"
Aaron patted Nami's shoulder and said as if she was praising and mocking: "I believe in your ability very much! No one is better at deceiving than you!"
“Is that true?”
Nami refused to comment on this evaluation, smiled slightly and took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.
Aaron did not speak up to keep him.
"Boss, if we want to establish a fishman empire, Nami's ability to draw a chart is indispensable!" After looking at Nami's back, she walked out of Aaron Park, a cartilage fishman named Croobi came to Aaron and whispered: "If she really wants to keep her free as agreed..."
"Do you think I'm that stupid?"
Aaron laughed proudly and said, "I've been angry with Colonel Mouse. Now he should be about to start taking action. I will definitely keep the agreement on money, but if Nami himself breaks the contract, what does it have to do with me?"
"This little thief cat is destined to work for me for the rest of his life!"
"Scared hahaha!"
Just as Aaron laughed wildly, Nami had already reached the intersection to the east.
She met a boy here.
"Get out of here!"
The boy held the short knife in his hand and cried bitterly, "My father was killed by them! I must avenge him! If you dare to block the road again, I will kill you together! I am serious!"
"Don't dream!"
Nami knocked the boy to the ground with a stick and said coldly: "If you could kill Aaron with a knife, he wouldn't have the chance to live until now!"
“Woo woo…”
The boy curled up on the ground, his face filled with tears.
"If you understand, get out of here!"
Nami threw down a few stacks of money and turned around and strode away: "Please protect yourself well with this money. This is the only thing you can do! Don't waste your life meaninglessly! No one can defeat Aaron on this sea!"
She went forward without looking back.
A faint pain in my heart.
In this place ruled by Aaron, too many innocent people were killed.
Bellmeier…
Nami remembered her mother who died under the gun and couldn't help biting her lips.
Now the only thing you can rely on is yourself. As long as you save 100 million Baileys, you can save the village from Aaron! And this goal will be achieved immediately! Just need to endure a little more!
With this feeling, Nami quickly arrived at Kokoaxi Village.
When the people in the village saw her, they all avoided her indifferently. On the surface, they hated Nami for joining Aaron and her gang, but in fact they were worried that Nami would only be burdened by everyone's expectations and would not be able to give up on them when they wanted to escape.
But Nami is not aware of this.
She lowered her head in disappointment and walked forward silently, returning to the orange orchard located in the suburbs.
Sister Noqigao is cooking at home.
"Yo, are you back?"
After seeing Nami, Nokigao smiled and said hello: "It just so happened that I did a little more this time. Now you don't have to worry about not having enough food to leave. You can wash your hands first, and tell me the story of this adventure."
"Then don't be shocked by me!"
Nami smiled reluctantly: "This big adventure is unprecedentedly exciting!"
"Then I need to listen more."
Nokigao brought the food to the dining table and listened quietly to Nami's story: a funny and cruel pirate named Bucky, who was almost killed and rescued by an adventurer named Roach. After going out to sea together, he met a strange island and a treasure chest, and defeated the pirate who tried to usurp the property of a sick lady...
Then she talked about her new friends:
"Guina's swordsmanship is really amazing. Those pirates are not her opponents. Although they don't like to talk, they are very principled in their work. Usopp always boasts that she is a brave warrior, but she is indeed quite reliable at critical moments, and that Roach..."
"Actually, I was a little scared of him at the beginning."
Nami held a cup of warm tea with a smile on her lips: "Because he was obviously Bucky's subordinate at that time, he suddenly defeated his leader and took away all valuable things. He looked like a ruthless and thoughtful guy, but after getting along for a long time, he realized that this person was pretty good."
"He was very quick to turn his mind and was calm when encountering things, so he always felt at ease around him. The most important thing is that in this era of evil pirates, he neither fell into a pirate who only knew how to plunder, nor was he a fool with only blood... "
Nami unknowingly talked more and more: "If possible, I really want to be his partner, follow him to the great channel, and fulfill my dream of drawing a world map with my own hands..."
"You can tell that you really admire him!"
Noqigao lit a cigarette for himself: "Then why did you suddenly come back alone?"
“Because I’m really scared—”
Nami did not hide it in front of her sister, and showed a heartfelt wry smile: "I saw the news that Kesha Town was destroyed by Aaron and his gang, so I was worried that if I could not buy the village as soon as possible, Kesha Town would follow in the footsteps, so I betrayed Roqi and the others and stole all the treasures."
"They must hate me now!"
