Chapter 229: Hachi and the Chambord Islands
"Okay, the foreign enemy has been dealt with, but what I didn't expect was that I would meet you here, I haven't seen Hachi for a long time!" With Planck and the others returning safely to the Sonny, Hachi, who slowly woke up, also ushered in the situation he was most unwilling to face.
"Nami, I'm sorry! I know that we have caused a lot of damage to you and your village under Aaron at that time, and I don't ask you to forgive me, I just want to express the guilt in my heart, I have been out of the Aaron Pirates for a long time, and now I run an takoyaki shop here, although it is rude, I still want to ask you not to tell Kemi about my past! Please! Ignoring the injuries on his body, Hachi trembled and knelt in front of Nami.
"Namisan, you...... We listen to you about it! As Hachi confessed his mistake, he finally remembered who this octopus fish man was Sanji, and looked at the silent Nami and sighed and said helplessly.
"Ah, you're the bastard at the time, I said why are you so familiar, it's really fateful, you can meet acquaintances in this kind of place, although our relationship seems to be very stiff!" Zolon, who also remembered who was in front of him, also curled the corners of his mouth, and looked at Hachi's eyes gradually becoming unkind.
"Ah, what can I do? Kemi is our good friend, Hachi is Kemi's good friend, but Hachi is Nami's enemy, it's a mess! Looking at the embarrassing scene in front of him, Luffy said with a frenzied face.
On the other hand, seeing Nami's inquiring expression, although I don't know what happened between Nami and this fish-man before, it doesn't prevent Planck and Robin from pulling Kemi to ask questions to divert Kemi's attention.
Brooke, who had also shown his hand in the battle just now, looked at the strange atmosphere on the ship with a smile on his face, and enjoyed drinking the black tea that Sanji had just brewed for Nami after a drink with Frankie beside him. "Woo Hoo Hoo, this ship is interesting now!"
"Nami, it's not good for Hachi to kneel like this all the time, Kemi is going to come over after all, and Kemi just saved Luffy's life, so it's also a blow to Kemi if it goes on like this!" Looking at the two people in front of him who seemed to have pressed the pause button, Usopp looked at the other parties who bowed their heads and said nothing, gritted his teeth and mustered up the courage to go up and comfort Nami.
Glancing at Hachi, who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro, who had been watching him, and Usopp who was nervous beside him, Nami finally sighed and slowly spoke, "I won't tell Kemi about your past, and I won't ask you what to do?" But that doesn't mean I've forgiven you, you know? Hachi! The pain of this tattoo doesn't go away easily. ”
Listening to Nami's words, Hachi gratefully bowed again, muttering words of gratitude and other thanks, and slowly stood up from the deck. At this time, Kemi also walked over accompanied by Planck and Robin, and ran over with a surprised face when he saw Hachi wake up, and only let go of Hachi with confidence after Hachi replied again that his body was fine, blushing and looking down at the straw hats gathered here.
"Ah, yes! Hachi, Luffy and they are going to Fish-Man Island, but unfortunately they don't know how to get there, you know? Help them! I had to go back by myself, I didn't know how to take them down, after all, at the bottom of the sea for 10,000 meters, they couldn't stand such deep water! In order to divert everyone's attention, Kemi suddenly thought of something, and looked at Hachi with a pensive look in his eyes.
"Are you going to Fish-Man Island? You need to go to the Chambord Islands to find a coater to coat your boat, all the ships that sail to Fish-Man Island must be coated, otherwise they will not be able to withstand the terrible pressure on the seabed, so the coating is the basis for you to survive in the sea at that time, I know an uncle with a very good coating, he will coat you to ensure that your ship will go to Fish-Man Island is no problem, so let's wait for me to take you personally to find that uncle, after all, there are some things on the Chambord Islands that outsiders don't understand and are prone to trouble. Hachi, who felt that he owed Nami, thought about it after hearing that the Straw Hats were in trouble, but gritted his teeth and made this suggestion.
"Hmph, compared to you, there is another one of us here who was born in the Chambord Islands, and we don't know much about the islands than you!" Looking at Hachi's worried look, Nami sarcastically looked unpleasant.
"Nami, let's let Hachi lead the way, after all, I left here with my mother when I was a child, and I lived in an aristocratic district when I was here, I don't know the coater or anything, it's a big deal, so don't be angry!" Looking at Hachi, who looked embarrassed, Planck sighed and explained helplessly.
"The Noble Quarter? Could it be that you are ...... Draconian? Listening to Planck's explanation, Kemi, Hachi and Papagu immediately looked at Planck with hatred. Feeling the bad eyes of the three of them, Zoro and the others immediately became vigilant, and the scene of joy just now suddenly became nervous because of this information.
"Okay, don't be so nervous, Hachi and Kemi, you too, if you have elders for you, you should know the story that has been passed on this island, I am the outlier of the Draconians, Leonardo DiCaprio Saint, known as the Celestial Dragon's Shame, is the Draconian who was banished for facilitating the slave rebellion decades ago." With Planck's sigh, his right hand, which he had been trying to hide, was slowly raised, and he saw that the smooth wrist had a semicircular shape surrounded by several small triangles. "This is part of the legendary dragon hoof carving of the Celestial Dragons to distinguish slaves!"
"What? Carved by the dragon's hoof! Looking at the weird shape, he subconsciously touched Hachi, who touched the sun symbol on his forehead, and couldn't help but scream with Kemi and Papagu beside him.
"Indeed, you are the only one who will have this mark on your body, re-introduction, I am the little eight of the Sun Pirates, I salute you on behalf of the Sun Pirates, and Brother Tiger often mentions your deeds when he is still alive! Said that in the Holy Land, Mary Joy, thanks to your cover, he was able to rescue everyone. Looking at the mark on Planck's wrist, Hachi smiled and actually gave Planck a respectful salute.
"Forget it, don't talk about it, I hope I don't meet acquaintances who come to play in the Chambord Islands this time, otherwise I will be a burden to you, after all, the other Draconians hate me very much!" Looking at the people who looked puzzled and wanted to ask, Planck sighed and said helplessly: "The things of the year were too complicated, and some important people would be involved, if you really want to know, I will tell you on the way!" With the revelation of Planck's identity, a group of people, whether they were the Straw Hats or Xiaobakemi, actually sat together curiously and surrounded the control room with the advancing current, listening to Planck, who controlled the ship, talk about what happened back then.
