Ron didn't know what was going on, all he knew was that he had been hit by a speeding truck, and when he regained consciousness, he found himself inexplicably at sea, carried in an unknown direction by the current.

The extreme exhaustion of his body made him unable to swim in the sea at all, and he could only barely use a little physical strength to keep himself floating on the surface of the sea and not sinking to the bottom of the sea.

Even so, the waves that appeared from time to time at sea would still wash him into the sea, and if he was not careful, he would drink a large mouthful of seawater, so that in less than an hour, his body was on the verge of overdraft.

Luckily.

When his physical strength was almost exhausted and he was about to lose his support, an island appeared in front of him.

Despite running out of strength, Ron twisted his body as best he could, leaning on the current, and drifting towards the island.

As the island drew closer, the instinct for survival made Ron's nearly overdrawn body seem to have a little more physical strength, causing him to wave his arms and paddle the water, rushing to the shore.

Whoa!

In the midst of the crash, Ron rushed to the shore and slammed headlong into the sand, sand poured into his mouth and nostrils, but the joy of surviving swept away all the discomfort.

Ron barely rolled around, turning himself head-on, gasping violently while his eyes were filled with confusion.

"It's ...... Where? ”

How did you suddenly appear at sea?

Ron couldn't connect the memories before and after him at all, and only felt that there was chaos in his mind, as if some memories were missing in the middle, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt his head swell.

Unable to remember how he was here, Ron gave up thinking about it and looked around instead, trying to figure out what it was.

However, at a glance, except for the sparkling sea and golden sand, there are only some strange buildings on the island behind, although they look vaguely familiar, but they can't remember what this place is.

After thinking about it for a long time, Ron's mind was gradually disrupted by hunger.

"Gotta find something to eat......"

Pressing his empty belly, Ron barely managed to get up, and he felt that in his current state, if he didn't find something to eat, he might die on the beach.

But before Ron could stand up and walk towards the island, a figure appeared behind Ron, quickly approached him, grabbed Ron's shirt violently, and dragged him directly to the island.

“？！”

Ron was shocked and tried to struggle, but the strength of that hand was so great that he probably couldn't break free even if he was in a normal state, not to mention that he was now weak and almost dying.

Ron tried to stop him, but his voice was unusually hoarse and weak, and he barely managed to spit out a word, and the other party didn't seem to hear it.

Cannibals?

Savages?

These words popped up in his mind, which made Ron feel a burst of horror, and what made him even more terrifying was that when he barely turned his head sideways, the figure he saw in the afterglow turned out to be light purple, which was obviously not the skin color of a normal human.

Moving his gaze in horror, he looked at the man's head, only to see that the other person's head was not hair, but something strange like tentacles, which was still writhing.

My day!

What the hell is this, what the hell is this place?!

Ron's eyes widened violently, revealing an incredible look, telling himself in his heart that he must be dreaming, but the severe pain of being dragged forward, the pain of rubbing his skin against the ground, made him feel that this was not a dream at all, it was reality!

Just as Ron tried to struggle with all his strength, his whole body suddenly became light, and he was thrown out by the purple creature, cutting an arc in mid-air, and falling into a courtyard.

"Boss Aaron, I found a human on the shore, it seems to have washed ashore."

The creature that threw Ron into the courtyard spoke into the courtyard, in a language that Ron wasn't familiar with, but strangely he understood it.

Especially the first word that the other party spit out made Ron stunned for a moment.

Aaron...... Top dog?

The inexplicably familiar name made the emotion of surprise occupy all of Ron's heart, and even the pain of the fallen body was almost falling apart was left behind.

He turned his head sideways with difficulty, and looked into the inner side of the courtyard, where he saw a familiar and unfamiliar figure on a chaise longue, and his gaze became a little glazed.

It's really that guy!

Fish-man Aaron!

It's almost exactly the same as in my memory.,Exactly the same appearance!

“…… That is, here it is...... The world of One Piece?! ”

Ron squeezed his eyes hard to make sure he was right, and his emotions grew agitated.

This is one of his favorite worlds, and he has fantasized countless times about being able to come here, but he didn't expect to actually come to this world!

Aaron, who was sitting on the recliner, opened one eye, glanced at Ron on the ground, and said, "Washed ashore?" We're not a distress shelter here, well, let's follow the rules here, a hundred thousand Baileys for a human. ”

Obi, the fish-man in the courtyard, looked at Ron, who was soaking wet and wearing only a shirt and shorts, and said, "How can this guy hide money on him......"

"Then kill it."

Ah Long spoke in a lazy tone, not expecting to get any money from such a person who was washed ashore.

The simple conversation between Aaron and Obi poured cold water on Ron, who was a little emotional.

Ron, who is familiar with the plot, knows very well that this sentence of 'kill it' is not a joke, he really wants to cut him up with a knife!

Coming to the world of One Piece certainly makes him happy and excited, but this unfolding in front of him is a little wrong! It's too tragic to die just after you come! He hasn't even been able to touch the Devil Fruit yet!

Thoughts were running wild, thinking of ways to survive, but the fish-man clearly wasn't going to give Ron time to think.

At this time, Ron's body was like falling apart, not to mention getting up and running away, it was difficult to struggle for a while, not to mention that even if he was in good condition, it was impossible to escape in front of a non-human fish-man monster like Aaron.

Seeing the mace in Obi's hand smash down, Ron had no power to resist, and he struggled with all his strength and only barely moved one of his arms.

But just as the mace was about to fall, a crisp voice came.

"Wait!"

Obi subconsciously slowed down, but the mace still fell towards Ron's head, and he barely opened his neck sideways, finally not being knocked into the Headless Horsemann by the blow.

Reluctantly moving his head, he looked in the direction from which the voice came, and saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl appearing there, with short orange hair, petite and cute, who could almost recognize the identity of the other party at a glance.

Nami!

It seems that he is only about fourteen or fifteen years old.

In other words, the current time should be about three or four years before Luffy went to sea, and based on Nami's age, Ron roughly guessed the time point at this moment, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Although Nami doesn't know him, with Nami's character, he shouldn't be killed casually by the fish-people.

As long as he can survive, as long as he survives the current difficulty, even if there is nothing, he is confident that he can survive with his understanding of the world, and even go rampant in the sea.

"Oh, I'm back."

Seeing Nami appear in the courtyard, Aaron sat up from the recliner and grinned, "It's been so long...... If you don't come back, I'll send someone to find you. ”

Nami frowned and glanced at Ron lying on the ground, originally she thought that Ron was a villager from Cocosia at first glance, so she stopped Obi without hesitation, but when she got closer, it was a strange guy.

"What's going on?"

Nami asked with a frown, looking at Aaron.

Ah Long spread his hands and said: "It's nothing, a guy who was washed ashore by the waves, he doesn't know where he came from, and he has no money on him, according to the rules here, if he can't pay the money, he has no right to live." ”

As he spoke, Ah Long grinned and said, "Hey, Obi, don't do it in the yard, get blood everywhere, throw it out first." ”

"Okay! Boss Aaron. ”

Obi replied dumbly, reached out and picked Ron up, and was about to drag him out of the courtyard.

However, Nami, who heard Aaron's words, thought of her adoptive mother Bellumin, and when she saw Obi about to drag Ron out, she couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "Stop." ”

"Huh?"

Aaron looked at Nami and smiled, "Do you want to spare his life?" It's a pity that the rules here can't be abolished casually, unless he can come up with 100,000 Bailey to survive. ”

In fact, it doesn't matter if you kill Ron or not, it's just a shipwrecked refugee, and it doesn't matter if Nami wants to let it go, but the only thing is to leave Nami with the idea that 'the rules must not be broken', which is the most important thing.

Otherwise, if you put one today, one tomorrow, wouldn't the whole Cocosia Village be released the day after tomorrow?

“……”

Nami glanced at Ron, and anyone at this time could see at a glance that there was no Bailey hidden in his body.

At this time, although Nami had agreed with Aaron to redeem Cocosia Village with 100 million Baileys, the total amount of money she got from several trips to sea was only 300,000 Baileys, and if she wanted to save Ron, she would have to use 100,000 Baileys at once.

Although they were just people who didn't know each other, Nami couldn't do it when she saw Ron being killed in front of her eyes, not to mention that Aaron's words just now caused her memories of Berummel.

While Nami struggled in her mind, Ron calmed down.

Even if Nami didn't save him, he had already figured out a way to get out, but that would be a big risk.

One hundred thousand Baileys.

For Nami, who is only fourteen or fifteen years old now, I am afraid that it is a lot of money that has taken a lot of risk and spent a lot of energy to get it, and it is not certain whether there is so much money or not.

A few seconds can seem like years.

Nami finally made a decision, she took a deep breath, took a stack of bills from her pocket, and said, "His share is here, I'll make it for him." ”

"Tsk...... It's really generous. ”

Ah Long grinned, reached out and took the stack of banknotes, waved his hand at Obi, and said, "Okay, this person's life is yours." ”

Looking at this scene, Ron exhaled lightly and turned his gaze to the clear blue sky.

Kind, intelligent, soft-spoken, soft-spoken.

That's great.
