One Piece: The Ninja Who Started as a Fisherman.

Chapter 25 Nami's Past

The next morning, the sun began to shine.

Qi Kang was fishing in the backyard, and the dark crows above his head kept dropping lumps of bait. However, a piece of news exploded in Qi Kang's ears like a bolt from the blue.

"What! Nami left?" Qi Kang was shocked and his eyes widened.

Lijia's mother nervously handed over a note and some clothes.

"Yes, this is what Miss Nami left for you."

After reading the note, Qi Kang was a little confused!

That idiot actually went back to find Aaron?

This shouldn't be the time!

Qi Kang slapped his thigh!

Careless! Butterfly effect! Enough money!

I didn't expect that because of my joining, Nami would return to the village early.

"Nami! Why don't you just say it! Luffy will pack you up in a minute, Arlong!"

Qi Kang had a headache! He was very upset when he thought that the money he had worked so hard to earn would be wasted.

They even defeated Crow! Are they afraid of the Arlong Pirates?

Nami! Nami! What are you afraid of?

At this time, Zoro and Coby also came down from upstairs. Zoro asked with a puzzled look on his face:

"What happened?"

"Nami has returned to Kokoa West Village. Anyway, you can see for yourself."

"Kokoyasi Village, why does this name sound so familiar..." Koby murmured.

The two looked at the note, which had Xiujuan's words written on it:

I'm going to take care of some personal matters.

I'll borrow some public funds.

If all goes well, we can go on an adventure together then.

拜！

——The little thief cat Nami.

(?˙▽˙?)

Zoro frowned and looked at Qi Kang: "Hey, Qi Kang, how do you know Nami has returned to her hometown?"

Qi Kang was unwilling to elaborate, but just shook his head and asked, "The key is what should we do now?"

Sauron snorted coldly and said cunningly:

"Since she left without saying goodbye and took away our treasure, we can just kill her next time we see her. It's a good thing I have a better impression of her."

"Isn't that because she was generous with the wine money?" Qi Kang complained.

At this moment, Coby suddenly became emotional:

"Qikang, are you sure Nami's hometown is Kokoasi Village?"

Qi Kang nodded and said:

"That's right! I want to find Nami, but I only know her name, not where she is."

Qi Kang looked at Zoro and sighed.

Neither of them knows how to sail, and Zoro is even a directionally challenged person.

Zoro bared his teeth in dissatisfaction: "You bastard fisherman! What do you mean by that expression?"

Coby suddenly yelled, "Stop arguing! Do you know where the Kokoa West Village is?"

Qi Kang looked aside. Of course he knew.

Zoro was curious: "Isn't it Nami's hometown? What's wrong?"

Coby explained in a solemn tone with a trembling voice:

"That is one of the places occupied by Fishman Arlong, the leader of the Dragon Pirates under the command of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Jinbei! That place is a place where legal looting is allowed, and even the navy is helpless!"

"Seven Warlords of the Sea?" Zoro heard this name for the first time and looked at Saikan.

Qi Kang thought for a moment.

"Although it's too early to understand now, but in this case, let me tell you."

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea are legal pirates recognized by the World Government..."

"Most of the Shichibukai have catastrophic destructive powers that rival even those of nations!

It is no exaggeration to say that one person can defeat a country!

Their duty is to fight against ordinary pirates with their own strength, so they are generally called the "running dogs" of the World Government by pirates.

When becoming one of the "Seven Warlords of the Sea", the original wanted order will be stopped, and the World Government will no longer pursue all crimes committed before.

So just take a look at their bounty.

Even if members of the Seven Warlords of the Sea engage in privateering, the World Government will condone it, but they will be required to pay tribute if discovered.

This is the case with the Arlong Pirates, who call themselves Jinbe's subordinates.

In short, these are a group of legal pirates that even the government needs to cooperate with.”

As Qi Kang spoke, Zoro was stunned and realized the vastness of this world.

Coby bit his lip, his heart filled with anger. Ever since he knew this thing, he had doubted the justice of the navy.

At this time, Qi Kang looked at Coby, his eyes lit up:

"By the way! Coby! Don't you know something about sailing? Can you take Zoro and me there? I'll go and secretly bring Nami back!"

However, Coby looked embarrassed: "I don't know... that place is under the jurisdiction of the 16th branch, the navy cannot enforce the law beyond the area, and..."

Coby was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do. What he hated the most were these pirates, and he was even more ashamed that the government had established legal pirate groups.

But what can he do? He is just a weak marine!

Just when Coby was in trouble, Zoro pointed his sword at Qi Kang and said cunningly:

"I disagree! This should be decided by Luffy! Nami betrayed us, so she is a traitor."

Qi Kang was unhappy.

"Nami has her own difficulties! And how could Luffy give up Nami as a navigator!"

Sauron shook his head and insisted:

"I don't know what happened to Nami, but I know that this kind of thing needs the captain's decision. Even if Luffy is an idiot, he is still our captain! How to deal with this crew member still needs to wait for him to speak."

As he spoke, Zoro took off his hood and looked serious.

"Anyway, I won't let you go! Unless you want to do something!"

Qi Kang was so angry at Zoro that his face turned blue. Finally, he sat down dejectedly, transformed into Alrita, and said angrily:

"You're really pissing me off, Swordsman, you're so directionally challenged! If you don't have money to drink in the future, don't even think about charging me for it!"

Seeing this, Zoro said to Coby, "Coby, can you arrange a boat to take Qikang and me back to Xiluobu Village?"

This time, Coby nodded heavily.

"I'll go to the lieutenant colonel to borrow a warship. Given Qi Kang's relationship with the lieutenant colonel, I think he will help you!"

After Kirby left.

Zoro had a dark face and sat next to Qi Kang.

"Can you change back? I'm afraid I won't be able to resist and will chop you!"

Qi Kang stood up with his fat body and pointed at his big belly.

"Cut me! Chop me! Don't just stay silent here! You have the guts to threaten me! You have the guts to chop me!"

"Mah-mah-mah! M ...!"

The man and the crow were provocative.

This eye-catching action made Zoro close his eyes.

"Tell me about it, Nami! You must know something, otherwise you wouldn't be so nervous."

Qi Kang hesitated and finally let out a sigh.

Finally, in order to prevent Nami from giving Zoro a bad impression, he was ready to have a showdown with Zoro.

"I did investigate some of Nami's affairs. I wanted Nami to tell it herself, but I didn't expect her to leave!"

Qi Kang began to narrate:

"Nami's hometown is Kokoasi Village in the Mieda Islands...

It was occupied by the Arlong Pirates from the Grand Line.

He believed that the merfolk were a more advanced race and imitated the celestial dragons in looking down on all living things.

Under their rule, everyone has to pay for their lives, and the consequences of not being able to pay...

Nami's adoptive mother Bell-mère was the first victim.

Arlong discovered Nami's ability to draw nautical charts and threatened the lives of the villagers to recruit her as a member of the Arlong Pirates.

He made a big promise to Nami: as long as she collected 1 million berries, she could buy back the village and her freedom.

Qi Kang paused.

"In other words, the reason she was greedy for money was that she wanted to buy her own village. She probably left without saying goodbye this time because she had enough money."

After saying this, Qi Kang felt his mood became a little heavy.

As Qi Kang spoke, Sauron fell into deep thought and murmured:

"Are you as naive as I was back then? You actually believed those disgusting scumbags. You're such a clown."
