Chapter Thirty-Four: The Dragon Pirates
In the autumn of October, the orange orchards of Bermel are harvested again, and Bermel leads Nami and Nokigao to pick the oranges and preserve them.
But then there was a problem, this year the weather was good, the oranges were harvested, the price was cheap, and it was difficult to sell.
Bermel was very distressed and could only save a little to survive this year.
"It's done."
In the room, Nami was lying on the desk drawing a map of the island, looking at the map, checking it several times, and was very satisfied.
This is a complete map that Nami has drawn up after more than a year of exploring the island.
The map above is very detailed, more comprehensive than the map in the village, the depth of the port, the markers, the depth of the water, the contour line of the island, etc.
Nearby ships can easily sail through this sea area and come to the island to inhabit by virtue of the island.
"Go to the bookstore and read a book."
Nami put the map under the table, spoke to Bermel, who was reading the newspaper, and left the room and ran towards the bookstore in the distance.
"Have you heard? Many villages have already been looted by Aaron and his gang. A villager said worriedly on the side of the road.
"They were brutal, they killed a lot of people and destroyed some villages." Another middle-aged woman shook her head and sighed.
"Don't come to us." An old man couldn't help but say.
There were villagers talking on the side of the road, and Nami ran past them and couldn't help but sigh.
The Aaron Pirates, a group of powerful pirates.
It has been several months since he arrived in the East China Sea, attacking seven or eight villages, robbing many riches and killing many people.
I hope you don't come here.
Nami prayed in her heart and crossed the road to the village bookstore.
The bookstore is not big, but there are a lot of books, with six shelves full of books on two walls, and a table in the middle, full of books.
"It's Nami."
The shopkeeper is an uncle, and when he saw Nami, he smiled and said, "Read the book, don't stain the corners of the book." ”
The shopkeeper knew that Nami's family was poor and couldn't afford to buy books, so she came here to read and didn't stop her.
"I'll take notice."
After Nami walked in, she flipped through a few books, came to a place, picked up a book, and her eyes were full of longing.
"This book is fantastic."
Nami looks at the book, and the cover of the book says "NAVI GATION", which means navigation.
The book is full of information, such as navigation and positioning, and determining the position of the ship according to astrological and climatic landmarks.
For example, hydrogeography and meteorology, coping with extreme weather, judging ocean currents and using ocean currents
There are also ship handling and performance structures, ports and waterways, and so on.
This book is very thick, and there is a lot of practical content in it, which makes Nami's heart extremely longing.
"I want it so much."
Nami's eyes twinkled, and she looked at the book, eager to keep it for herself.
Nami hesitated for a moment and looked at the shopkeeper in the distance, who was looking down at the newspaper and not paying attention to it.
Nami immediately grabbed the book, turned her back, put it in front of her, and walked towards the door.
"Nami, are you leaving? So fast today? The shopkeeper asked, a little surprised.
"Well, there's something going on at home, so you can't stay too long." Nami said as she walked towards the outside of the store.
The shopkeeper nodded, but the moment Nami walked out of the store and turned around, he saw a book.
"Nami, leave the book."
The shopkeeper suddenly stood up and shouted.
When Nami heard this, she ran away.
The shopkeeper immediately came out from behind the counter and chased after Nami, shouting, "Nami, return the book, you little thief cat." ”
He was older, his legs and feet were inconvenient, and he couldn't catch up.
"Nami stealing again? I'm going to get her. ”
At this time, Ah Jian happened to see this scene, and he was furious, and chased directly after Nami, grabbing her in his hands.
"Take you to your mother!"
。。。
In the southern part of the island, Xia Qiu is resting underwater, he has just returned from eating, and needs to digest the food in his belly.
The heat flow provided by food is now very small, and compared to one's own large body, it is not even possible to let the heat flow throughout the body.
In three months, he grew from 30 meters to 32 meters, and his weight increased by about 20 tons.
In the same level, he has a huge power that is completely incomparable.
Even a 50-meter blue whale was easily hunted by Xia Qiu.
But when I think of the sea beasts I encountered that day, I still don't have much confidence.
Not to mention the Sea Kings.
It needs to continue to get stronger.
Xia Qiu thought, but at this time, suddenly from above the sea, there was a huge vibration.
Xia Qiu opened his mouth and released ultrasound waves, and when the sound wave returned, it was received by Xia Qiu, and it was judged to be a huge sea ship.
This sea ship is large, and only naval warships can compare with it.
The Navy is coming?
Xia Qiu immediately floated up and looked into the distance, only to see the sea in the distance, a huge pirate ship sailing towards the side of the island from a distance.
It's huge.
It was the first time Xia Qiu had seen such a huge pirate ship, at least sixty meters in length.
The hull was wide and had several masts, both sails and sails, and countless muzzles.
But the next moment, Xia Qiu's eyes shrank slightly.
The bow of this pirate ship has jagged sharp horns, and on the largest sail, a pattern is also painted.
This is the Dragon Pirates.
The moment she saw the sharp corners and patterns, Xia Qiu discovered their identity.
It turned out to be the Dragon Pirates built by Aaron.
They actually came to the East China Sea and came to this island to plunder.
Xia Qiu thought about it, the time is about the same, it is now the year 1512 of the Haiyuan calendar.
Jinping became the Seven Martial Seas last year, and Aaron was also released from Impel Prison last year, and then had a discord with Jinping and came to the East China Sea.
The Dragon Pirates are all fishmen.
Xia Qiu thought of their identities, and suddenly a desire to devour them.
Sea fish provide evolutionary energy, humans provide enhanced energy, but what about fish people and mermaids? Will it provide two types of energy?
Even if they only have enhanced energy, with their innate strength ten times stronger than humans, they are worth devouring.
But I can't beat it.
Ordinary fishmen are okay, but the cadres themselves dare not fight.
Let's not talk about the leader Aaron, let's talk about the three cadres.
The first little eight, the octopus fish man, has six arms, is good at using a sword, and has six knife flows.
He has tremendous strength, he can lift a wall and throw it with two hands, and each knife of the six swords weighs three hundred kilograms.
It can be inkjet, and it can also punch.
The second is Crowobie, the cartilaginous fishman, karate forty dan.
He was underwater, and with a single blow, Sanji flew away, crashed into a cliff in the distance, and shattered the rocks.
The third is Jiu, a kissing fish-fish-man who can spit out blisters to attack.
The large blisters he spat out destroyed more than a dozen trees with one blow, and the small blisters could easily break trees.
These three cadres have their own strengths and have powerful attack power.
What's more, they can breathe in the sea and move freely, unlike humans, whose fists and kicks are half as strong in the water.
Of course, when it comes to strength, one's own strength is many times greater than theirs.
But they are more flexible and smaller.
It's completely possible to dodge his own attacks and attack from the weak point like Colonel Lido did.
With their strength, they can also inflict damage on themselves in the water, and they can grind themselves to death.
So it can't be defeated.
Xia Qiu thought, extinguished the idea of attacking them, and slowly dived underwater.
Wait until they're gone.
They just came to rob, and when they were done, they would leave and return to their stronghold, the island where the village of Cocoa West was located.
The island where the village of Cocoa Yasi is located could never be here.
The Dragon Pirates finally controlled more than twenty villages, how could it be so coincidental.
Xia Qiu thought and waited quietly for them to leave.
But as time passed, by the evening, the Aaron Pirates still hadn't left.
No way?
Xia Qiu had an ominous premonition in her heart.
The next day, the Dragon Pirates set off the pirate ship, and just as Xia Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, he thought they were leaving.
only to find that the pirate ship did not move away from the island, but slowly headed towards this side.
Xia Qiu hurriedly dodged and swam into the distance while observing them.
When Xia Qiu watched the pirate ship sail into the southern coast and stop in this part of the recessed area, Xia Qiu realized that the island he was on was the island where the village of Cocoa West was located.
The Dragon Pirates, starting from today, have been based on this for eight years.
And Nami, according to the time, her mother Bermel has been killed by Aaron, and she was also brought into the Dragon Pirates because she was discovered by Aaron and drew a nautical chart.
Next, in order to protect the village, she joined Aaron's gang and became a member of the Dragon Pirates.
After that, he endured the humiliation and tried to redeem the village by stealing and drawing charts for the dragon pirates.
But she was greeted with despair.
It wasn't until she was saved by Luffy and the others and defeated the evil dragon that she got rid of her painful fate.
Xia Qiu's heart suddenly became extremely angry, and he wanted to kill every fishman in the Evil Dragon Pirates.
Not because of Nami, of course.
It's because.
Where your pirate ships are parked, in the southern bay, that's my territory.
How do you say that, those who offend my turf......
Kill you!
Xia Qiu's heart surged with boundless killing intent.
