When everyone came to the Dragon Paradise, which had just begun to break ground, they saw Bermeil, whose old wounds had not healed and new wounds had been added, fainted on the side of the road.

"Bermel ——!" Nokigao rushed over and picked up Bermel. "What's wrong with you, Belmel, wake up, Belmel! Belmel! ”

"Hahaha, you guys take this guy back, after all, we don't want to kill our companion's family." The fish-man on the side closed the door.

"Family?" Nokigao and the others were confused.

“... Notchy Go..."Just then Belmel woke up.

"You're awake Bermel, great! I'll take you to the doctor right away—" Nokigao was about to put her arm up.

"I'm sorry Nokigao." Bermel didn't move.

This was the first time that Nokigao had heard such a low voice from Bermel, as if the whole world had betrayed him, and he apologized helplessly.

“...... Bermel? Nokigao was suddenly scared.

"I'm sorry Nokigao, I'm sorry you guys, I'm sorry ......" Bermel's voice had returned to normal, and when he raised his head, he had a smile on his face: "I didn't become a qualified mother...... I'm sorry. ”

“...... Bermel? Bermel, what's wrong with you, don't scare me, Belmel, you've always been a qualified mother, always have been. Nokigao held her hand anxiously, repeating it over and over again.

Bermel lowered her head, her body twitching from time to time: "I'm sorry Nokigao, Nami she...... I couldn't save her....." She looked up and squeezed out a smile: "But it's okay, I'll save her, so ...... So ,....... when I go back."

Bermel told the whole story.

Nami is threatened by her family and the village, and becomes one of the dragons.

If she saves up 300 million berry, the dragon can abandon the village and sell it to her.

"Guest !!" Ah Jian and the villagers clenched their fists, eager to rush in and fight now.

"Everyone!!" Bermel stood up and forced a smile: "I know it's selfish to do this, but ...... But let's reject Nami together! I'm sorry!!! ”

Bermel clutched his arms and bowed to the end.

The crowd looked at each other. “......”

Suddenly, someone spoke.

"Kexiu, Nami actually joined the evil dragons, she actually joined the pirates!"

"And it's still the pirates who persecuted this village, it's unforgivable!!"

"Yes to ......"

Bermel kept her head down, tears falling to the ground and shattering.

"Bell... Mel—" Nokigao covered his mouth, tears still streaming down his face.

#

When she got home, Nami and Bermel had a big fight, slammed the door and ran out, not seeing Bermel's embarrassment behind her.

Walking in the village, everyone looked at each other strangely, and whispered evil words to each other.

Nami bit her lip and couldn't take it anymore.

"No matter how much you hate me, I'll be fine!! If you live right, like you are so enslaved, I would rather live wrong!! ”

With that, Nami ran away.

#

Eventually, in the back mountain, Nokigao found Nami, who was sitting alone.

Noki held on to the stone, "Nami, Bermel told you to go back to dinner." ”

"Now, Nokigaard." Nami was still seated, arms folded around her knees, burying her face inside, "After I was captured by them, the five warships that came to capture Aaron were easily sunk, and the government will definitely not come to save this island again." ”

"I understand that I have to figure it out myself."

Nokigao walked over slowly, looking down at the back of her head.

Nami: "I made a contract with Aaron to buy Cocosia Village from him, and our family didn't have to pay 200,000 Berry a month. ”

"Contract?" Nokigao was distressed.

"Buy it with 300 million berry. As long as you buy the village, you can be free. In this way, everyone will not have to work so hard, and no one will die. In exchange, I'm going to join them and draw them nautical charts. ”

Nokigao knew about these things, and everyone in the village knew about them, but he chose to hide them, and then targeted Nami, hoping that Nami would abandon them and escape alone.

Bermel didn't want Nami to do this, she preferred to work harder and hand over 200,000 berry a month.

Even if you don't have the money, it's just a big deal that you will be killed.

The freedom of daughters must never be exchanged.

She is a mother, and she hopes that she can be a qualified mother.

Nuo Qigao is different from them, they are all adults, and they all want to sacrifice themselves as adults to protect their two little girls.

Only Nokigao thinks from the same perspective as Nami.

They don't just want to protect themselves, they want to ...... I want to save everyone too.

Nuoqigao: "But 300 million berry is so much, even if you work for a lifetime, you can't earn it!" ”

"I'm going to earn it!" Nami is decisive. "By whatever means."

"It's not easy for the people in the village to give them an offering, so I have to do it. If I want someone to ask for help, someone else will be hurt. ”

Nokigao was silent, she had no way to object to anything.

Even though she doesn't know how much she can help Nami, she will never say anything discouraged to Nami.

She understands Nami's determination, and if she were to be herself, she would do the same.

This kind of determination is different from the kind of determination to work hard towards a certain goal.

Rather, you're going to let me destroy, I don't!

Nokigao: "If you ask Gal for help, there may be a way, you know, they are very powerful, even the legendary griffin is their companion, Nami, if you go and find ......!" ”

"Yamelu !!" Like the straw that broke the camel's back, Nami shook her head frantically.

"Nami..."Nokigao eventually skipped the topic.

"It's going to be painful."

"Hmm." Nami just said.

"It's going to be painful to be with the guy who hurt us or something."

"It's okay, even if I see that guy's face, I'll keep smiling at him, I've decided not to cry anymore."

Nami looked up blankly.

Nokigao bit her lower lip, tears streaming down her face.

"I've decided I'm going to fight alone!"

......

......

It's not just the East China Sea where something big happens.

I don't know what's special about these two years, things are happening one after another, in a hurry.

For example, in the first half of the Great Voyage, on the Seven Islands of Water, the water train was officially completed. Just when everyone was rejoicing about this, Tom the Fishman, the chief engineer of the water train, was framed by the CP5 prefect Svandam, and Tom was escorted to Justice Island and killed as guilty.

The Hades blueprint is in the hands of the iceberg.

For example, the warship transporting Heavenly Gold was hijacked by the 'Celestial Yaksha' Doflamingo on the Great Voyage, who officially became the last 'Seven Martial Seas' under the threat of 'Heavenly Gold' and the secrets in his mouth.

At this point, the king's seven martial seas are full.

One more thing......

Fish-Man Island at 10,000 meters under the sea.

On this day, a ship that worries the people of Fish-Man Island every day finally returns.

While all the mermaids and fishmen were anxiously waiting, a yellow-haired woman dressed in feathered weaving trotted onto the deck and waved at the crowd.

The people on the port looked at each other,

Finally, the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis erupted.

Princess Otohime, who went to the holy land of 'Mary Joa' alone, has returned safely!

"Great!! Otohime-sama!! ”

"Otohime is back!!"

"Great, as long as she returns safely, we will ......" Some citizens have long been unable to cry.

"The Princess!!" The ministers also wiped tears from their eyes.

After several days of lobbying, Princess Otohime finally persuaded the Draconians of the Holy Land to bring back a paper book, which can be said to be a piece of paper that the fish-people hope for.

Princess Otohime stood on a high place: "Ladies and gentlemen, the appeal of the nobles of the world will play a vital role in the meeting of kings, and even in the world conference. She held up the piece of paper in her hand, cherishing it until it was not wrinkled at all: "This is the handwritten letter of the world's nobles, it is written like this." ”

"In order to promote friendly coexistence between fish and humans, I also agree with the signatures and opinions put forward."

"In other words, when we submit a lot of signatures at the World Conference, this piece of paper will have a more substantial impact on us."

"Our dream of moving will definitely come true!"

"So then, I need more signatures from you, and I'll just have to wait for you to make a decision now. Please express your willingness to coexist with humanity and our desire to move to the ground!! ”

Princess Otohime ended the speech with her enthusiasm.

But she opened her arms and greeted her with not a tide of enthusiasm, but a deathly silence.

“......”

Princess Otohime was a little disappointed, but she still put down her body and knelt down next to the box: "Please, please sign it, please!" ”

But...... Her optimism, her enthusiasm, got still silence.

Princess Otohime bowed her head in frustration.

呲——*3

Princess Otohime looked up and saw that it was three children who had put in the signature form.

"Kids, you're here to make me happy again, and you won't want to go back." Princess Otohime frowned, very disappointed.

This kind of thing happens all the time, and Otohime doesn't blame them, and the children also want to make themselves happy, but they can't be the master.

However, the fact that she took the autograph back still made her disheartened.

Princess Otohime closed her eyes.

"No, my mother also said that she would submit an autograph." The child's crunchy voice woke her up.

When Princess Otohime looked up, she saw that the front of the box was full of people, and one by one the signatures were sent into the box.

As the bottom of the box grew thicker and thicker, so did her eyes, and the brilliance in her eyes grew brighter and brighter.

In the end, when the box could not fit in, Princess Otohime raised her head.

The crowd of people in the square is so bright under the sun.

"Otohime-sama, this little box can't fit it." The fish-man who was about to step down reminded with a smile.

"Do you know how many people there are in this country?" The next fish-man to take the stage immediately answered with a grin.

But Princess Otohime didn't seem to hear or see.

Because, it is already the limit for her to cover her mouth and not cry, and tears have long blurred her vision.

It was on this day that Princess Otohime discovered,

The light at the bottom of the sea is no darker than on the ground.

She couldn't hold back any longer, and cried like a child.
