On the sea, in the sea area around Cocosia Village.
"Uncle Kazan, try it~"
"Ouch...Hmm~ Nokigao's craftsmanship has improved again."
"Hey hey hey..."
In the kitchen of the Caroso, Nocchi Gao brought the orange steak she made for Kazan to try. Although her mother Bellemeier and sister Monet helped, little Nocchi Gao still followed after receiving praise from Kazan's uncle.
happy.
Next to him, there was a greedy little Sugar who was secretly planning to reach out and grab a piece of cake while Kazan was eating steak.
But how could someone as stupid as Sugar be able to hide this from his brother?
Snap.
"Well..."
"Granulated sugar! I told you, you can't eat sweet things anymore lately! Your teeth are almost full of worms!"
"No way!"
Granu covered her little hand that had been beaten by Kazan, feeling angry and unhappy. She really wanted to eat that cake.
But recently, Sugar has eaten too many messy things, and her teeth are almost hurting. If she continues to eat like this, Kazan is afraid of tooth decay, so she started to control Sugar's diet.
Perona and Nami are practicing the knowledge they learned in the navigation book on the observation room. Little Nami has learned a lot from Perona.
Ever since they got acquainted with the monster family, the three members of the Bellemere family stayed on the Caroso to eat and drink every day, but for the sake of this little angel Nozhiko, Kazan didn't care about them.
After staying here in Cocosia Village for almost a month, Kazan felt that it was almost time to leave here, but before that there was still one thing to solve.
That is the problem of the Fish-Man Pirates that may still exist in the future.
Aaron is basically half of Kazan's younger brother, and a few days ago, Kazan specifically asked Bellamy, who had a great relationship with Aaron, to ask him what he thought of Aaron.
As expected, both Kazan and Bellamy believe that Aaron's attitude towards humans is still one of hatred and disgust.
Among humans, only the Whitebeard Pirates and the Monster Pirates are special to him.
So... this makes Kazan think that in the future... the Fishman Pirates may come to Cocosia Village.
At night, after returning to Cocosia Village, Nokigao and Nami said they wanted to sleep with Perona and Sugar, so they stayed on Caroso.
Kazan immediately took action, first following Bellemere back to her home.
"Hey! What are you doing with me for so long? You don't want to do anything to me, do you? I'm a mother of two daughters."
"...Don't worry, it's just you...hehe."
Kazan expressed disdain for Bellemare's bad jokes. The only thing that changed was his slightly smaller figure, and he was not interested at all.
"Then what are you doing here? Stealing oranges?"
Bellemare didn't care about Kazan's 'contempt' at all. They had made such jokes several times and were used to it.
Kazan didn't reply. He came to the door of Bellemeier's house, looked at the house as a whole, and hesitated: "I'll go back for a while."
Kazan ran directly back to the Caroso, and when he arrived at Bellemeier's house again, he was followed by Bellamy and Fon Clay, all three of them carrying a large steel block on their shoulders.
"It's begun."
Bellemeier watched Kazan's hands suddenly turn red, and then inserted them directly into the steel block, and suddenly felt a bad feeling.
A quarter of an hour later.
"You...what did you do!"
Snap.
Bellemare slapped Kazan on the forehead and pointed angrily at the house he had turned into steel.
The steel gate is also engraved with the logo of the Monster Pirates' pirate flag.
"Tsk... This is for your safety. Look at this hard house, it's invulnerable!"
"Then what's going on with this skull?! I'm a navy, do you understand?"
"Is there a navy who hangs out with pirates every day? Just leave it as a souvenir, lest you forget us."
"Tsk... Damn it! Sooner or later this door will be torn down!"
Bellmere looked at the sign on the door with an unhappy expression. In fact, she didn't care much about what was on her door, but as a former navy soldier, she would inevitably feel weird in her heart.
This tiger girl seems to have to make some preparations.
Kazan sighed inwardly when he saw Bellemeier's gnashing of teeth.
"Okay, I'm leaving~"
"Get out of here!"
Kazan, who took Fon Clay and Bellamy away from the Bellmere house, asked his two younger brothers to return to the Caroso first.
Then a man came to the guardhouse of Cocosia Village and found Ajian sitting there reading a newspaper.
"Kazan? Is something wrong?"
Everyone in Cocosia Village is no stranger to the monster family, and there is no problem in normal communication.
"Ah...this is for you."
"Huh? This is...a painting?"
"Yes, the symbol of our pirate flag."
Ajian held a painting in his hand and looked at the skull with bloody eyes on it. He didn't understand what Kazan meant by giving it to him.
"You know better than me how tough that guy at Bellemere is. If a pirate comes again in the future, he might even charge at him like a fool."
"Um!"
"If you encounter a guy that Hu Niu can't deal with, try using this thing. It might be of some use."
"...good."
After listening to Kazan's reasons, Ajian felt that this was indeed very possible. After all, wasn't the man in front of him a clear example?
Although Ajian may not have much use for this painting, since the number of pirates in the East China Sea is still relatively small, and not many can come to Cocosia Village, he still listened to Kazan's advice and put it away.
"Are you... leaving?"
"hold head high."
"Bellemere and the others also know?"
"No, not yet. I plan to talk about it when I leave."
"Uh... In that case, Nokigao and Nami will probably cry."
"I just want to see them cry, hahaha."
"..."
Jian really didn't want to make too many comments about the strange habits of the man in front of him.
Kazan nodded after watching Ajian put away the painting, then turned and left. When he reached the gate, he suddenly stopped: "Ah... By the way, if those two little girls cry, I'll leave it to you.
Come on...after all, the pinwheel on your hat is just to make them happy."
"..."
Ajian looked at Kazan's figure gradually disappearing into the night, and raised his hand to touch the windmill that he had worn on his head for several years.
I don't know...if it's still useful.
...
The next day, Nokigao and Nami returned home and felt an indescribable feeling in their hearts when they saw the changed family.
When they arrived at the orange grove, they saw that Bellemeier suddenly seemed to be back to the way he was before the monster family came back, smoking a cigarette and working alone in the orange grove.
At this time, Nokigao and Nami suddenly felt a strange sense of dissonance.
On the Caruso, Kazan summoned all members of the monster family and told them that they would be leaving the day after tomorrow.
Except for Perona and Sugar, who suddenly felt very disappointed, no one else felt anything.
After breakfast, the two little girls immediately went to the orange grove to find Nokigao and Nami. They had not yet said goodbye to their little friends.
Everyone began to make preparations before sailing, while Kazan entered the smelting room alone. He will probably spend the next two days in it.
He also has two hands to prepare for unexpected situations.
