Nuo Xia calmly pulled up her sleeves, looked down at Luffy, and laughed: "It's okay, Luffy, it's just a missing arm, it will grow back soon."
“Liar!!!”
Luffy cried even more sadly, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!"
"If you're not a child, then stop crying, Luffy!"
Nosha rubbed Luffy's head and said with a smile, "Just take this incident as a lesson and keep it in your heart. You don't have to be a navy in the future, but... no matter what you do, don't forget these three things I taught you."
Click, okay?"
"Uh-huh……"
Luffy nodded desperately, looking at Nosha who was smiling gently, he wanted to say a lot, but in the end, all the words turned into howling when he reached his lips:
"WOWWWWW!!!!!!"
…
A few hours later.
Under the sunset.
At the port are the warships that are about to leave, and on the shore are the villagers who reluctantly come to see them off.
"Mr. Nosha, please come again when you have time in the future!!" This is Miss Maginot who is waving with a smile.
"Be sure to tell me in advance next time you come~! I'll make you my signature beef stew with tofu!" This is Aunt Louise holding onions.
"Hey, what are you doing standing still? Why don't you say goodbye quickly, Luffy." The village chief grandfather quietly pushed Luffy.
"..." Luffy held back tears and looked at Nuo Xia's back without saying a word.
Nosha was wearing a white cloak of justice at the moment and could not see clearly what was going on inside. Luffy knew that Uncle Nosha did this to prevent him from seeing the broken arm and being emotionally moved by the scene.
It wasn't until Nuo Xia was about to step onto the deck that he suddenly used all his strength and even choked up loudly:
"Uncle Nuoxia——!!!"
"I will definitely not disappoint grandpa and your expectations, and I will definitely become the best navy!!!"
"..."
Nuo Xia paused in his steps and turned around after a moment, looking at Luffy with a bit of surprise.
"Ambitious."
He smiled, turned around and came to Luffy, took out a white navy hat from somewhere, squatted down, and put it on Luffy's head:
"Since you have decided to become a navy, I will leave this to you for safekeeping first."
"This is?"
Luffy touched it subconsciously and found that the navy hat was slightly yellowed and had hair balls on the edges, as if it had been worn for some time.
"A very precious navy hat that has been with me for many years."
There was a look of nostalgia in Nuo Xia's eyes, and he lowered his head and said with a smile, "I leave it to you now. From now on, you will regard this hat as a symbol of bondage and fight for your dreams!"
"I hope that when I see you again, you will have achieved your dream. When the time comes, return the hat to me!"
The voice ringing in my ears was soft and contagious.
Luffy was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Finally, he nodded heavily, wiped away his tears, and when he raised his head, his whole face was covered with a bright smile:
"Um!!!"
The setting sun shone on their shoulders, and the two of them seemed to be bathed in a faint orange-golden luster. The village elder was moved to take off his glasses and wipe them, and Maginot covered her mouth with tears...
"Let's go, everyone go back!"
Nosha didn't stay any longer, and finally rubbed Luffy's little head, laughed handsomely, turned around and left, and stepped onto the warship.
…
The sun finally sets in the west.
Luffy and the villagers of Windmill Village still stayed on the shore, reluctant to leave for a long time.
What they didn't know was that it wasn't until the Windmill Village turned into a small black dot in the distance that a small voice of doubt quietly rang on the warship.
"Brother Nuo Xia, you lied again."
"Do you know what a broken arm is called a white lie? For today's contribution, old man Garp will at least give me a hundred kilograms of senbei as a thank you gift."
"But when you put the hat on Luffy just now, you also used your right arm."
"..."
Damn it.
I made a mistake and didn't pay attention at all.
"You talk a lot..."
The man who looked so dashing just now muttered guiltily, "It's okay, Luffy must not have noticed."
"Does bullying that little guy look like his grandfather... Humph, and where did you get such an old military hat? Tina has never seen you wearing that thing."
"Oh, um, back in the new military camp..."
"to be honest!"
"When Sakaski asked me for a drink the year before last, he was drunk and I went along with him. I always thought that he might be useful someday."
Tina: "..."
Smoker: "..."
————-
In the next few days.
Nuo Xia Yin first took Tina Smogg and others to visit his hometown of Chaili Island.
In the blink of an eye, I haven’t been back for almost ten years. People in my hometown have changed, and things have changed a lot.
The originally remote and unknown town has gradually become a tourist destination on par with Rogge Town in the East China Sea due to him over the years, and it has become much more prosperous and lively.
His statues can be seen everywhere in the street square. Many tourists come here every year, and the 16 branches stationed on the island have also become extremely popular.
Every year, with dreams and longings in mind, the number of young people who come here to sign up to join the army is so terrifying that they are unique in the entire East China Sea, and can almost bring together all the other branches.
Nosha was shocked by this change. He was lucky that he had the foresight to put on Altaïr's hooded sweatshirt as soon as he got off the boat. Otherwise, he would have been surrounded three levels inside and three outside as soon as he took to the street.
, it’s difficult to move even one step.
After leaving Chaili Island.
In response to Smoker's plea and invitation, he stopped by the Roger Town branch for two days and visited the guillotine where Roger was executed.
It was evening and it was raining lightly.
Nuo Xia stood on the execution platform, looking through the rain curtain at the square below where there were only a few tourists. His eyes were deep, as if he had seen the past.
…
Ten years ago.
Gol D. Roger suffered from a terminal illness and voluntarily surrendered in order to shout these words to the world before his execution.
And ten years later.
Nuo Xia stood here. On the other side of the rain curtain was the boundless sea. The era of great pirates, which had caused turmoil and chaos in the world for ten years, was about to come to an end.
"Although the era you started will end in my hands..."
The rain was getting heavier, and the sky and the earth were blurred. Nuo Xia stretched out his right hand, stared at the rain falling on his fingertips, and murmured to himself:
"But...different paths lead to the same destination."
"Your true purpose and true wish will also be realized by me."
Boom!
A bolt of thunder suddenly exploded across the sky, making half of the sky as bright as day.
Did you hear that?
Nuo Xia turned his head, took one last deep look at the tall execution rack, shook his head slightly, turned around and left, disappearing into the swaying wind and rain.
Then rest in peace, Roger.
…
A few days later.
Bucky called and said that everything was ready, the pirate festival would be held as scheduled tomorrow, and almost all the guests who had received the invitations had arrived.
Nuoxia found Tina Smog and gave some instructions.
Immediately it turned into a blue giant, soared into the sky, and embarked on its way back to Cocosia Village.
…
Cocosia Village.
After more than half a month of careful preparation, the scene here is very different from usual. The streets are covered with red carpets, the big trees on both sides are rolled up with silk and satin, and there are rich decorations everywhere.
The port was filled with all kinds of ships, and countless black skull and crossbones flags were fluttering in the wind, making it impossible to see the edge at a glance.
…
"Look! Boss, that guy over there is Stoke, the man with a bounty of 11 million Baileys!"
"And there's Mulder, the black-haired hungry wolf! He's actually here too! Damn it, stay away from him, that guy is a dangerous monster who will kill ten entire villages a year!"
"Hey, it's strange, why are all the pirates over there wearing chef uniforms?"
"Idiot! That's the Chef Pirates! Even though they're dressed like that, the old man in charge is called Zhepu, and he's also a character who's not easy to mess with!"
A group of pirates who had just entered the village couldn't suppress their excitement, just like an old lady from the country entering the city. They pointed everywhere and screamed from time to time along the way.
"Keep your voices down!"
The purple-haired man walking at the front finally couldn't bear it anymore, turned his head and scolded sternly:
"It's like you've never seen the world before. You make a fuss about everything you see. If you make yourself embarrassed here, don't blame me for being rude!"
He has a strong build, is wearing an eye-catching golden armor, and has a black cape flying behind him. He is quite aura, and he is not angry and intimidating.
But this scene has never been seen in the East China Sea...
The pirates were startled and felt aggrieved, but due to the intimidation of their captain, they still nodded and said nothing.
The purple-haired man then turned around, looked at the pirates passing by on both sides, and sneered in his heart.
To say they have never seen the world is an understatement, they are just a bunch of idiots!
Didn't I just meet a few pirates with a bounty of over 10 million?
What's so great about these people is that they only became famous early because of their time at sea!
And he, less than two years after he went to sea, has already become a powerful figure, with a bounty of up to 9 million Baileys on his head!
Just give him a few more years...
It is easy to surpass these guys and become the most powerful pirate leader in the East China Sea!
"No, maybe it won't take a few years..."
Suddenly thinking of something, an inexplicable light flashed in Creek's eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, "As long as the ceremony starts, kill these guys while they are not prepared..."
Then wouldn't he, Lord Creek, be so powerful that he would become the strongest pirate in the East China Sea?!
No, it's more than that.
Such big news will soon spread throughout the world, and his bounty will definitely increase several times due to this, and may even directly exceed 100 million! He has become a big figure that the pirates of the Grand Line must look up to!
The navy will kick that Bucky away and beg him to become a Shichibukai. Beautiful girls from all over the world will also admire him and kneel down outside the palace, just to beg for a chance to accompany him...
Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing wildly.
Waiting for the subordinates behind him to cast surprised and doubtful glances, Creek snorted coldly and waved his hand: "Follow me, speed up, go to the ceremony venue early and grab a good seat!"
"Yes, Captain!"
…
The Creek Pirates and their group left without noticing that there was someone in the third-floor room above their heads who witnessed all this.
"These pirates are really funny."
Kabaji, the financial manager of Bucky Express Company, closed the window, rolled his eyes and turned back, "You have heard, right? Captain Bucky, that idiot named Creek, said some stupid things."
"I have told you a long time ago that the new pirates nowadays are very brave."
Bucky gently shook the red wine in his hand and sneered, "But such a willful, arrogant and ignorant guy is still quite rare... Forget it, ignore him, business is important, have everyone in the village moved away?"
"The transfer work? It was all completed in the morning. The pirates thought it was the villagers' hospitality and took the initiative to vacate the village to welcome them." Kabaji said with a smile.
"Where's Mr. Bailong? Did you say when it will arrive?"
"Yes, I contacted you at noon."
Kabaji nodded hurriedly, "According to Master Bailong, if we calculate the time, he can arrive at Cocosia Village within half an hour at most."
"Within half an hour..."
Bucky put down the red wine glass, stood up and stretched, "Then pass it on and ask all the pirates who have agreed to gather in the square. I will go over soon to preside over the opening ceremony of the ceremony."
"Yes, Captain!"
…
The so-called square in Cocosia Village is located in the north of the village, and with the surrounding open lawn space, it can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Half an hour ago, the pirates heard the announcement on the radio and rushed here one after another. However, because the Creek Pirates were far away, the good seats in the middle had already been taken away when they arrived.
In the end, I could only sit in the remote northeast corner.
unlucky!
Creek cursed secretly, turned around and glared at his subordinates, wishing he could kick these idiots who were delaying things.
But the next moment he turned around and caught a glimpse of his golden armored shoulders, he narrowed his eyes again and sneered.
Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't get a good position. It's actually more convenient to suddenly take action in such a remote corner where no one is paying attention.
Although it was a temporary plan, he was confident enough in it.
after all……
When entering the grand ceremony venue, you are naturally not allowed to bring large weapons. The powerful ships and cannons that the pirates rely on are also at the port. The most you can bring with you is short guns and sabers.
But he, Lord Crick, is different!
Hidden in this golden armor are many extremely destructive large-scale destruction weapons and rocket launchers.
Poison gas bombs...coupled with his natural strength, it is enough to sweep the entire field with ease!
No one can be his opponent!
Even the man who lives up to his name is no exception!
Creek narrowed his eyes and cast his sarcastic gaze at a certain spot on the edge of the outfield. There was a commotion there. Many pirates stood up with smiles to greet them, and at the same time retreated to both sides.
In the cleared passage, Bucky, who was six or seven meters tall and wearing a large cloak, was waving with a smile on his face as he entered the venue and headed towards the podium.
"Welcome everyone! Welcome to the East China Sea Pirate Festival and to Cocosia Village!" Recommendation: .menda
