Chapter 243: Flying Thief

The grave of Nami's adoptive mother, Bermel, is built on a cliff facing the sea and overlooking the bustling village of Cocoa West in the distance.

At this time, next to the tomb, a thin figure was standing alone, looking at the warship gradually departing in the distance.

Nami didn't know how long she had been standing like this, when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

"Nami!" Nokigao walked up from a trail behind the cliff, "why did you come here alone?"

"It's so noisy in the village that I want to be alone and quiet with Bermel for a while. Nami said softly.

Nokigao walked over and put his arm around Nami's shoulder, who rested her head lightly on her shoulder.

"I know you might be sad and wonder why those people didn't come sooner, so that Bermel might not have to die....... Nokigao also looked at the departing warship and tried to comfort Nami.

"No," Nami shook her head, "I didn't think so. ”

Nami turned her head, crossed Noki's shoulder, and glanced at the humble grave of her adoptive mother, Bermel: "Bermel said that in this world, girls should be stronger, and I won't complain, but I am a little confused about the future and want to talk to Bermel." ”

"Bermel is no longer here, I am your sister and your only family, what is on your mind to talk to me. Nokigao gently stroked Nami's hair.

Nami obediently rested her head on Nokigao's shoulder, not at all naughty as she was nicknamed "Little Thief Cat" by the people in the village, nor stubborn when she passively resisted Aaron's gang, Nami could see the tattoo on Nokigao's body out of the corner of her eye, which was specially tattooed by Nokigao when she cried when she learned that she was forced to tattoo the mark of the Dragon Pirates, in order not to make her more sad and inferior.

"That adult, Morgan William, wants me to go to his school," Nami whispered, "and he told me that there I could learn more systematically about seamanship, and that I would learn enough to protect myself." ”

Nami is only eleven years old, not technically of school age in Newest, but William has seen the charts she drew for Aaron's gang, and it's hard to believe that this is a little girl who is only 11 years old.

William also learns that Nami's knowledge was almost entirely self-taught, and that many books were stolen due to family difficulties.

William is a talented person, Nami is very talented, he doesn't mind letting Nami enter school a year early, and he believes that this smart little girl will not fail to keep up with her studies.

"Do you want to go?" asked Nokigao after hearing Nami's words.

Nami thought for a moment before slowly nodding, "Yes." ”

In fact, emotionally speaking, Nami, who has already experienced so many things at the age of eleven, really wants to stay in her hometown village, run the orchard left by her adoptive mother Bermel, and rely on her sister Nokigao for her life.

But reason told her that it was a better choice to follow William's advice, eleven-year-old Nami was already smarter than children of the same age, because of the factor of being coerced by Aaron, and she was more mature than the psychological age of her peers, Aaron's appearance made her understand that this world is very big, and there is not only a world in Cocoa West Village, and the outside world is also very dangerous, and it is not a good idea to be trapped in Cocoa West Village and hand over the future to an unknown fate.

Going to the academy mentioned by William to learn more about sailing, and even the skills of self-preservation, is a better choice in this era.

……

Harden was born in the East China Sea, grew up in the East China Sea, and became a pirate in the East China Sea.

He is familiar with the story of One Piece Roger, who was also born in the East China Sea, and therefore, although he is not familiar with the geography and characters other than the East China Sea, he knows something about several characters who are greatly involved with One Piece Roger.

In the era when One Piece was active, it was not Roger, the One Piece, who was alone, Roger also encountered many strong enemies, and among them, only three people are most well-known today.

They are the legendary hero of the Navy, Karp, the most famous living and famous pirate "Whitebeard" Newgate, and "Golden Lion" Shiki, who once cornered One Piece Roger.

And now, the man sitting in front of Harden is the famous "Golden Lion" Shiki!

The golden lion "Shiki" is a man who once pushed One Piece into a corner, but his life seems to be full of tragedy.

In the Battle of Aite Wall, the Golden Lion, who had the upper hand, spoke to recruit the One Piece Roger, who seemed to be in high spirits at the time, but was "defeated" by an unexpected storm, not only his power was greatly reduced, but he was also indeliblely damaged, and his "legend" Not only that, after hearing the news of the capture of Roger, the One Piece who had defeated him, he also went to the Navy Headquarters alone, and almost destroyed the Navy Headquarters by himself, but the final result was that he was defeated by the two admirals Karp and Sengoku, and he was thrown into the big prison to advance the city.

And in this world-famous prison, the legend of "Golden Lion" Shiki is not over, he became the first pirate to escape from it since the establishment of the prison, but the price is a pair of legs.

It can be said that the story of the Golden Lion is always full of legends, and often makes big news that the media rushes to report, but on the contrary, he always seems to end in tragedy in these stories.

Of course, if it is in the original book, then the tragedy of "Golden Lion" Shiki is not over here, and the Golden Lion, who has been working hard for many years, unfortunately met Luffy and his gang again, and was finally defeated by this group of pirate newcomers of their children and grandchildren.

Although Harden doesn't know what happened in the future of the original book, he knows other deeds of the Golden Lion, and in view of this, he is also a fan of One Piece Roger, and when William was just a pirate captain, he almost did something to the gray-haired mayor in front of William because the mayor of Blackreef Town said bad things about One Piece.

In this case, Harden, who is unruly in his own right, naturally will not buy more face for the Golden Lion Shiki, especially if they are forced to come here.

At this time, the decoration of the room where Harden was located was similar to the style he saw in the Isshin Dojo where William's teacher Koshiro was, but compared to the more plain decorations, the overall appearance was very simple Isshin Dojo, and the decoration here was more gorgeous, and even the sliding door was painted with exquisite paintings.

Harden, Chloe, Crick and other vanished crew members are now in this spacious room, each with a small low table in front of them, on which are all delicacies, but no one is in the mood to eat.

The man sitting on the chairman laughed and raised his glass: "In this vast sea, it is also a kind of fate that we can meet, let us toast to this rare fate!"

After he finished speaking, he drank all the wine, only to find that no one at the table was drinking except him, and Harden kicked over the low table in anger.
