"I see."

After listening to Mondo's explanation, everyone suddenly understood.

Xia Nuo, on the other hand, was ready to go to the fruit stall on the island later, and if the price of this thing was not too outrageous, he would buy a batch and put it in the pantry.

After all, this kind of fruit containing vitamin C is absolutely indispensable for long-term sailing on the sea, otherwise unless the physique is strong enough to his own level, he is very prone to scurvy.

Since this fruit, called Ice Peach, has its own refrigeration effect and can be stored for a long time, it is naturally a better choice than oranges for the Storm Pirates, who are currently well-funded.

After Bing Tao, Mondo introduced some of the rest of the island's customs and customs, and everyone basically listened to it with relish, and before you knew it, the Tempest had already entered the harbor and docked towards the shore.

And at this time, someone finally began to notice that something was wrong.

The first one to notice was Kira, who was a special case, not very interested in what Mondo had introduced, and still thinking about the way Xano had taught him yesterday.

After the ship slowed down, he subconsciously looked up at the shore, only to find that a large number of pirates were converging on the dock from the streets of the distant town.

"Brother Xano."

After looking at it for a while, seeing that the pirates were gathering more and more, he finally couldn't sit still, and quietly came to Xia Nuo's side, and said with some solemnity, "Something is wrong, we seem to be surrounded by people." ”

"Huh?"

His voice was not loud, but several people around him, including Xia Nuo, heard it, and they all looked at the shore, and then their expressions suddenly sank.

"What does that mean?"

Xia Nuo looked at Mondo coldly, the latter was stunned, uh, and just wanted to say something, he was suddenly grabbed by Kidd behind him and twisted his arm, almost fell to the ground in pain, and hurriedly shouted: "Misunderstanding, it's a pure misunderstanding!" ”

His shout immediately attracted the attention of the group of pirates on the shore, and immediately a figure stepped out, and in a flash, his figure came to the railing of the Wind, the blade of his sword unsheathed, and slashed down at Kidd below.

Laugh at!

Before the blade arrived, a chilling sword aura had already escaped, Kidd's face turned pale, and he just wanted to dodge, when there was a sudden sound of breaking wind next to him, and in the next moment, a slender and slender blade suddenly appeared above Kidd's head, stopping the sword that was split.

Rumble!

The sword qi collided, and the aftermath instantly shook several people around them away for several meters, and when they finally stood firm, they found that Xia Nuo had drawn his sword in his hand and quietly blocked in front of them.

"Emergency!" Kidd immediately turned his head and shouted at the cabin, "There is an enemy attacking, everyone is ready to fight!" ”

"Understood!"

The crew responded very quickly, and almost as soon as the words fell, everyone on the deck had gathered around the railing with weapons, and the guns on the side of the ship were also opened, aiming at the pirates on the shore.

Seeing that the muzzles of the guns were aimed at them, these pirates did not flee in all directions in panic, but dispersed as soon as possible, and after keeping a certain distance from each other, they reflexively aimed their weapons at the Wind, looking quite well-trained.

And at this moment of tension, Xia Nuo didn't make any moves, he and the guy who suddenly attacked the ship on the other side were looking at each other at this time, and their eyes were a little strange.

The reason why Xia Nuo felt strange was very simple, the guy on the other side looked a little familiar no matter how he looked - he was very short, only about one meter six, with short brown hair, wearing a white and green uniform in the classical style of the Middle Ages, his appearance was delicate and cute, and he couldn't tell whether he was a man or a woman.

But it's only familiar, there are too many characters in the original pirate books, unless they are more important or appear earlier, Xia Nuo is really hard to think of.

The guy on the other side seemed to recognize Xia Nuo, and after looking at it for a long time, he finally couldn't hold back, first put away the blade, frowned, and said, "You are the Seven Martial Seas of the King, the Wind Sword Hao Xia Nuo?" ”

"It's me."

Seeing this, Xia Nuo also withdrew Lan Che in his hand, stared at the other party and said, "Who are you?" Why do it to my crew? ”

"I'm the Whitebeard Pirates, Captain of the Twelfth Team, Harta." This guy said very calmly, and after a pause, he looked at Mondo, who was pressed to the ground by Kidd, and said in a deep voice, "I just wanted to save my teammates, it seems that there was a misunderstanding in this." ”

The Whitebeard Pirates?

As soon as these words came out, everyone on the Storm suddenly gasped, and they all looked at each other, feeling a little incredulous - these guys on the opposite shore were actually the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates?

Who is Whitebeard?

That's a legendary pirate of Roger's time, the head of the Four Emperors, known as the strongest man in the world!

The Whitebeard Pirates have 16 teams with a total of 1,600 elite pirates, in addition, they also have 43 New World Pirates, adding up to tens of thousands of people, and they are now the undisputed number one pirate group in the world!

The guy on the other side who looked like a teenager was actually one of the sixteen captains under Whitebeard?

"Harta......" Xia Nuo's eyes flickered slightly at this moment, and his heart was also full of surprise.

After the other party reported to his home, he finally put the little impression in his mind on it, and if I remember correctly, the other party seems to be a swordsman who majored in swordsmanship, no wonder the sword qi that burst out from the sword just now made him a little frightened.

At this time, Mondo, who was twisted and pressed to the ground by Kidd, finally struggled to get up with a blue nose and swollen face, he looked a little aggrieved, but Harta on the other side frowned, glared at him and asked:

"Mondo, didn't you say in the phone bug the day before yesterday that you were in danger, but the signal was cut off before you finished speaking, and now you are here well, and you are still on the ship of the Seven Martial Seas, what is the situation?"

"You can't blame me for that, Captain."

Mondo was reprimanded by the split, and suddenly became even more aggrieved, "I shouted in advance that this was a misunderstanding and misunderstanding, who knew that the speed of each of you was faster than the other......"

As a result, before he finished speaking, he saw that Haltha and Xia Nuo were staring at him at the same time, and he immediately wisely gave up pouring bitter water and began to pick up the main points from the beginning.

It turned out that Mondo's ship was not a merchant ship of the Roland family at all, but a transport ship temporarily called by the Whitebeard Pirates, and the guards on board, such as Mondo, were all members of the 12th team of the headquarters.

And those white coats on the ship, although they are indeed real doctors, they are also peripheral medical units affiliated with the Whitebeard Pirates.

According to the orders from above, these medical troops were supposed to arrive at Ice Peach Island under the escort of Mondo and join Harta, the captain of the Twelve Teams, who was temporarily stationed here.

As a result, who knew that he was unlucky on the road, he was attacked by the sea kings, and when he used the phone bug to contact for help in a panic, he was disturbed by the huge waves set off by the sea kings, so that Harta was hung up before he could hear what danger he encountered here.

What happened next was known to Xano, and in order to return to Peach Island as little as possible without causing any accidents, Mondo falsely claimed to be the Roland family's escort and asked the Wind Pirates to bring them over.

After being confused, Harta sent a boat to investigate the situation, and at the same time set up a surveillance eye at the pier of Bing Tao Island, so when Mondo and they just entered the port, they learned the news as soon as possible, and rushed over, and mistakenly thought that Kidd was going to be unfavorable to his teammates, so he took the lead in attacking.

Things were figured out all of a sudden, and both sides were suddenly a little embarrassed, Xia no patted the shoulder of Kidd, who was full of shame, and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to relieve the fighting state, while Harta was angry and glared at Mondo fiercely, and then turned his head, solemnly bowed slightly to Xia Nuo, and said apologetically:

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Xia Nuo, just now we took revenge, I didn't expect there to be such a big misunderstanding in the middle......"

Xia Nuo was indeed a little angry, although they only did it easily when they saved Mondo before, mainly for the sake of trial and experience, but no matter what, anyone who encountered this kind of situation where good intentions were not reciprocated would not be happy.

But at this moment, seeing that Halta's attitude was so upright, he didn't want to say anything, and sighed softly: "Don't be too guilty, it's really not your fault, it's unlucky to be unlucky because who made you have a slow-mouthed subordinate, I also have an impatient hairy boy here......"

As soon as these words came out, Kidd and Mondo blushed with shame at the same time, and the rest of the people immediately laughed when they saw them embarrassed, and the original tense atmosphere of the dock suddenly dissipated completely.

Halta also shook his head and smiled, and when he looked at Xia Nuo again, he suddenly felt a lot closer - this guy became the Seven Martial Seas at a young age, and even his father had heard of his name, and he thought he would be a domineering guy who didn't know the height of the sky, but now it seems that he is quite easy to get along with.

After thinking about it like this, Halta felt that some things were still open and good, and they were more open to each other, and after the province, they let the other party know the beginning and the end, but they seemed to be petty.

"Your Excellency Xano, maybe you don't know it yet, but you really helped us a lot this time......"

He glanced at the medical troops who had been brought over on the ship, sighed softly, and said to Xia Nuo:

"If these medical units are really buried in the hands of the Sea Kings, not only Mondo, but also I will have to apologize to the rest of the brothers on board, and I will be in shame and anxiety for a long time, and it will be difficult to raise my head again."

"Huh?"

Hearing what he said so seriously, the crew members of the Wind Pirates next to him were stunned, while Xia Nuo looked at the heavy faces of the rest of the Twelve Team members at the same time, and suddenly understood something, and asked softly:

"Is it related to Daddy Whitebeard's injury?"
