Chapter 40 Sailing And Bounty
"Usopp support song...No. 365..."The Last Battle"...begins..."
The banquet lasted for three days before everyone in the village fell asleep.
Nami dug out the treasure that she had saved for eight years from the orange orchard. A lot of the gold had bloodline on it. It is not difficult to see how many dangers Nami had to go through for these treasures.
He put all the treasures into large packages and dragged them into the house with great effort.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Nami sat on a chair to rest. The sun was already coming out, and it was soon time to set sail again.
She couldn't help but look at the photo frame on the table. In the photo, the mother and daughter were all smiling happily:
"Bell-mère, it's all over at last."
Thinking of her experiences over the past eight years, she couldn't help but feel in a trance, as if Arlong's hateful face was still before her eyes.
Fortunately, those nightmare days were gone, and a smile appeared on her face. She continued to murmur to herself:
"I met some great friends~"
"Although they seem unreliable, they are all trustworthy partners."
"I'm going to sail soon!"
"The only sea chart I drew before is the one I drew when I was a child."
"But it doesn't matter, from now on I will draw pictures for myself!"
When the sun rose, I picked up the pen on the table and left a letter and phone number, as well as 100 million Baileys.
The moment he opened the door, Nami vaguely felt someone pushing him.
Looking back, it seemed that Bell-mère was standing there, sending her daughter off to a new life with a smile on her face.
"Then, I'm leaving, Bell-mère!"
Nami couldn't help but laugh, her steps became brisk, and she wanted to take a walk around the village next.
...
On the coast, the Meili docked here, and everyone was carrying supplies to the ship.
"Is this the last one?"
Xin asked after taking the box from Zoro. At this time, there were many boxes and packages piled on the ship.
"Yes, this is the last one."
Zoro answered as he returned to the boat along the rope ladder, but suddenly a shout came from the shore:
"Brother Zoro, and everyone else!!"
"Oh? Johnny and Joseph, what's wrong?"
Xin stuck his head out and asked curiously.
The shore was full of villagers who came to see off their farewells. The two of them posed in the crowd and said coolly:
"Although I still want to sail with my big brother!"
“We also admire the partnership of big brothers!”
"But we know that we are not strong enough and will only cause trouble for our big brothers."
"So say goodbye here!"
"Thank you very much for taking care of me these days!!"
Bowing ninety degrees to say thank you, the two of them came to say goodbye. After all, they were not formal partners, so it would be rude to follow them any further.
"What are your plans for the future?"
Zoro also stuck his head out and asked.
Johnny and the two looked at each other. They had just made a decision on this issue not long ago:
"We are not going to be bounty hunters anymore. We will settle here. With the one million Baileys given by Brother Xin, we plan to start a small business."
From the Sea Restaurant to Arlong Paradise, from Creek to Arlong, this short journey made them deeply aware of their own strength.
While a few people were chatting, Luffy was bored to death on the boat. He was lying on the guardrail at the stern, looking ahead blankly:
"It's so slow! Why hasn't Nami come yet?!"
Usopp, who was packing supplies, casually mentioned:
"Isn't she not planning to become a pirate?"
"After all, the village has been saved. Maybe she will be happier if she stays here."
Sanji, who was originally calm, suddenly changed his face and went up to grab Usopp's clothes:
"Are you kidding!! If Miss Nami doesn't come, the point of me getting on the ship will be 95.78% lost!!!"
"Hey, hey, why did you join in?"
"Of course it's to cook for the lovely Nami-san!! Could it be that it's to make sweets for you, a hedgehog!?"
"Everyone!! Set sail!!!"
Nami, who was being discussed by several people, appeared at the back of the crowd, waving her hands and shouting.
Although everyone was puzzled, they still followed the navigator's instructions and started to act. The Meili began to move forward slowly.
Nami lowered her head and ran without saying a word. The agility she had developed over the years helped her pass through the crowd.
Finally, he came to the coast, jumped, and landed steadily on the deck of the Meili's stern.
Pulling up the short-sleeved T-shirt he was wearing, Sanji was ready to get a nosebleed, but wallets fell one after another from Nami's body.
She took out a banknote and kissed it. She turned back to look at the people on the shore and showed a playful smile:
"Goodbye everyone!!"
"Ah!!! My wallet!!"
"Nami you guy!!!"
"Come back here you little thieving cat!!"
"You can come back anytime you want!"
"Take care!"
“Thank you very much!!”
As the Meili went further and further away, everyone on the shore stopped shouting and watched their benefactor embark on a new adventure.
Nagao handed Ajian a piece of paper:
"Here, take the new tattoo that Nami commissioned me to do!"
"Is this a combination of windmills and oranges? Really, that kid!"
"After all, Jian is just like a father to us."
Nuo Qigao said with a smile from the side, but found that the pinwheel that had been stuck on Ajian's hat was missing:
"Ajian, where is your windmill?"
I remembered that before, when Nami couldn't walk, she would always cry when she saw Jian's face. In order to make Nami happy, Jian put a small windmill on his hat.
Later, after experiencing the Arlong incident, probably to make Nami feel better, the windmill has never been taken off. As for now, Ajian rubbed the corners of his eyes and said with emotion:
"That brat doesn't need a windmill to amuse her anymore."
...
At the moment when everyone was setting sail, a meeting was being held in a certain room in the Naval Headquarters.
He has green curly hair, wears sunglasses, thick lips, wears a white blue striped shirt and a Marine cape.
Naval Headquarters Lieutenant Commander, the king of meetings, Brannew, smacked the speech board with several bounty orders posted on it, and said seriously:
"The new pirate, Monkey D. Luffy, has been out at sea. In a very short period of time, he has defeated Alvida, who has a bounty of 5 million, Colonel Mengka of the branch, Buggy the clown, who has a bounty of 15 million, and Buggy, who has a bounty of 15 million. The Baiji Crow with a bounty of 16 million, and the fish-man Arlong with a bounty of 20 million."
"Uchiha Shin, who claims to be a ninja, follows Straw Hat Luffy. Although his only record is defeating 17 million Creeks, he is full of malice towards Marine."
"First in Barati, an unknown seawater attack sank the warship of branch captain Hobodi, and then attacked the base of the 16th branch and plundered the property in the base."
"At the same time, it has revealed more than one elemental attack method, and also has the ability to perfectly disguise itself as others and the ability to clone."
"Their strength is no longer something that the branch can deal with. Here, we propose to offer a reward to the two of them!"
"Seconded!"
