"Hmm~ Indeed, it seems that we have only heard of this name not long ago..."

Usopp, who was doing the same thing, obviously perfectly overlapped with Luffy's brain at this moment, but fortunately, this small group was obviously not a complete idiot. At this time, two figures also appeared at the entrance of the orange garden. Zoro and Sanji were a step behind.

The two of them must have found something nearby, and then Nokigao's gunshot attracted their attention at the same time, and then they focused their attention on the orchard. Fortunately, it was the sound of Nokiko's attack on Luffy. The gunshot sounded, otherwise Zoro's original intention was to go in the opposite direction.

"Are you two idiots? We just came out of Bellemere, but what I didn't expect is that this small orange orchard actually has the same name as the most famous country in the East China Sea. Doesn't this count? Infringement?"

Zoro, who has good hearing, naturally heard the conversation between Nokigao, Luffy and others. He angrily ridiculed these two guys with thick brains. At the same time, he also looked at Luffy's thrown to the ground with interest. Nuoqi was taller, but at first glance, the green algae-headed swordsman's face was undoubtedly a little green, because she remembered very clearly that it was this female marine who accompanied Dasqi to the Yishin Dojo to challenge!

"Be polite to me, you bastard green algae head!"

Giving Zoro a vicious sideways look, Sanji quickly ran up to Nokigao and knelt down on one knee in a nymphomaniacal manner. A rose appeared in his hand from nowhere: "Ah~ beautiful lady. , your brown skin reminds me of the sweetest chocolate sauce, so fragrant and silky~~"

"..."

Even though Nokigao was a girl with a bold personality, she was also stunned by the actions of the blond woman in front of her. Putting aside the feeling of impure love, the other party must be a pirate... .This kind of behavior does not look like the existence that is no different from thieves in her past impression.

sisters

"Huh? Didn't Nokigao see those pirates either?"

Jian, who had just arrived at the orange grove with the villagers, looked around in confusion. As an adoptive father, he really cared about the girl in front of him. After all, the strong mother Bellemere is no longer there, and so is the orange-haired girl. From the original family of three mothers and daughters, only Noqi Gao is left.

"Ah, I think they have gone to the back mountains... It's better not to chase them, just stay vigilant."

She tilted her head unnaturally. Nokigao was obviously not Nami. She didn't have much face or experience in lying. Fortunately, the villagers now had almost full trust in her, and there was no need to worry about being exposed.

"That's it, then everyone should go home and be vigilant tonight."

Nodding, Jian was not suspicious, and then gave the order casually. Naturally, the surrounding villagers had nothing to say, so they each greeted them and left the orange orchard in Bellemere, and the kind ones even helped pick up some dead branches. Can Ye, and after watching all the villagers leave, a head poked out of the window of the room behind Nuo Qigao, and then said with relief: "Well~ everyone has finally left~ we should be in no danger, right? .”

There is no doubt that the person who spoke was Usopp, and in the room, Zoro and the other three were also cautiously hiding behind their respective bunkers. Although after hearing these words, Zoro, who was hiding behind the closet, still He snorted rather arrogantly: "Anyway, if you are discovered, you can only beat him."

"Asshole~ You are a green algae-headed violent maniac. If you want to fight, go to the deep mountains and old forests to find wild beasts to kill. Don't waste Miss Nokigao's kindness here~!"

Sanji, who was hiding behind the refrigerator, was holding Luffy's head hard while whispering to Zoro. The latter obviously knew that his thoughts were not appropriate, so he just snorted and did not respond.

"Sanji~ let me go, I'm so hungry and need to eat~~"

Luffy, who was trying to pull out the refrigerator, looked pitiful, while the blond chef said angrily: "No matter how hungry you are, just wait. This is Miss Nokigao's home, and I will never allow you to be so barbaric. Guy ruined her impression of us.”

Nuo Qigao, who turned around and walked into the house, carefully closed the door, let out a long breath, and then raised her head to look at the four guys in front of her. To be fair, she was surprised that she would actually cover for four pirates, and let these people into the home that she had sworn to protect.

"Miss Nuo Qigao~~ You have worked hard for us, please sit down~"

A whizzing spin approached, and Sanji very elegantly pulled out a chair for Nokigao, and then made a gentlemanly and considerate gesture, which made Nokigao's mouth twitch involuntarily. But she still held back and did not react. After all, her focus now was not on whether this golden retriever was a member of the Lily Party, but on why these people were related to Nami.

"Okay, since you need food, go get it. There should be some ingredients in the refrigerator."

Looking at Luffy's pitiful eyes, Nokigao sighed, but after all, his attitude softened a little. After all, she has been able to detect that the four pirates in front of her do not have the dirty smell of blood like ordinary pirates. At least from this point of view, these four people have not killed anyone, or at least they have not killed too many people. That's for sure.

"Oooh~food food~!"

"Hey~! Luffy, you guy, thank me first to Miss Nokigao! Bastard! Don't eat raw food! I'll cook it for you!"

Watching the roaring interaction between Luffy and Sanji, Zoro on one side also tilted his head subtly. After confirming that Luffy's desire to become the Pirate King was real, she had already decided on the idea of ​​following him. As a responsible vice-captain, she has naturally considered how to handle daily affairs on the ship. Although she hasn't figured out what to do yet, she can be sure that she doesn't hate seeing the scenes in front of her now.

"You are really a strange group of pirates... I have also been in the navy for two years. To be fair, this is the first time I have encountered people like you."

Staring at Sauron sitting opposite her, Nokigao took the initiative to speak, her tone also carrying an unquestionable sense of questioning: "Answer me, you should be people who do have that kind of powerful power, but why do you want to How about running away in front of some villagers who are no match for you?"

As a thorny person, Zoro never answered well when faced with such harsh questions. The green algae-headed swordsman with an evil smile also lazily spoke: "Oh, you ask this. ~I would also like to ask, why does this village have such a bad temper towards pirates? Even if it had been robbed before, it would not be like this~ Moreover, you, a trusted companion, actually sheltered us pirates , does it really not matter?"

There is no doubt that Zoro, who is sitting on a chair with his legs crossed and his chin slightly raised, is full of an aura that is particularly suitable for the word "evil charm". Paired with that half-dead tone, it makes him even more charming. This sense of superiority is vividly displayed. If we were in a 'normal' pirate group like the Bucky Pirates, there would undoubtedly be a large number of younger members who would be awed and trembled by the aura at this time. However, it is a pity that The thing is... the Straw Hat Pirates are not considered a 'normal' pirate group, so Zoro's show of aura can only have one result...

"Hey, hey, Zoro, can't you be more friendly? This attitude will scare people, right?"

After all, they have experienced the same prison disaster, so Usopp and Zoro are almost familiar with each other. At this moment, the long-nosed man raised his hand and grabbed Zoro's face without fear of death, and then made an extremely funny arc: "Come on, smile~"

"Bastard~! I'll kill you~!"

Zoro, who was suddenly furious, roared and was about to pull out the weapon from his waist, and Usopp simply lay down on the floor, and then poured a bottle of ketchup on himself very professionally, with a tone of voice. He instantly became furious: "...Ah~~It hurts so much. I was hurt by Sauron's words...Who...help me..."

Zoro, who was suddenly speechless, looked at Usopp on the ground. For a moment, he really felt like he wanted to chop him down with a knife. Forget it, does this idiot really think that everyone has Luffy's IQ? This obvious little trick is simply to give others anger points.

"Huh... ok..."

Nokigao, who once again confirmed that this pirate group was indeed abnormal, also interrupted the exchange between Zoro and Usopp's companions quite speechlessly, then sorted out his thoughts and said lightly: "If it was just a simple robbery That's all. In fact, this village has been enslaved for several years. All the villagers live fearfully under the power of the pirates. If they disobey the slightest bit, they will be killed. Such hatred, Can you understand?"

Nokigao's calm words brought Zoro and Usopp back to their senses. Zoro, who sat down again, frowned slightly: "This is a bit rare. I have only heard of pirates plundering or simply destroying villages. , I have never heard of being enslaved.”

"That's right...ah, I mean, don't you care about the navy nearby?"

Usopp, who got up from the ground and stopped playing with treasures, also nervously echoed to the side. After all, pirates are rarely able to live in a fixed place. After all, most of this ocean belongs to the World Government and the Navy Headquarters. The territory, especially the East China Sea, is recognized as the most peaceful sea area. It is difficult to imagine that there are pirates who can stay in one place for several years. Not to mention the kind of pirates who arrogantly enslave villages and dominate. This kind of local bully-like style cannot be tolerated by the Navy.

"That's the fact. Whether it was the nearby navy being bribed or something else, this village did continue to live in that kind of shit for several years, until a girl killed all the pirates. That saved the village from that kind of life.”

Looking at Zoro and Usopp across from him in a calm tone, Nokigao obviously had no intention of hiding anything: "Many people have lost their loved ones under the high-pressure rule of those pirates, including me and that girl. Our mother was at sea." On the day the thieves attacked, he was killed by those pirates in front of us in order to protect us. So, you understand why this village has such hatred towards pirates."

Although Nokkigao's tone was very calm, the intense emotion in her eyes and words obviously could not be concealed. It was uncontrollable anger, extremely heart-wrenching condolences, and eternal memories and regrets. And not just her, the villagers who also lost their loved ones are not much better than her.

Zoro's eyes subconsciously flashed with memories. Although she was a person whose parents and relatives were unknown, she also had someone worth remembering forever. If that person died not from an accident but from a pirate, she was sure He will definitely become an executioner who swears to kill all pirates.

"I see, it's extremely rare that you didn't greet us with a gun. Okay, now let me answer the question, yes~ we escaped from Bellemere, and...we have a relationship with Her Majesty the Queen It’s a big festival, and the ghostly appearance we have now is directly because of it.”

Nodding, Zoro also looked directly into Nozhigao's eyes. As a person with keen intuition at certain times, she had obviously noticed some details in Nozhigao's words: "So, if it's right, we I will also go to Her Majesty the Queen named Nami to settle this account."

"Uh... That's right, but you seem to care about Her Majesty the Queen?"

Usopp, who stood next to Zoro with his arms folded, couldn't help but feel a little strange. After all, Nokigao had stopped attacking after hearing Luffy say Nami's name before. Looking at it this way...

"...of course..."

After taking a deep breath and raising his head again, Nokigao spoke his words calmly.

"She is...my sister!"

(PS1: Well~~I finally finished the branch line~~)

(PS2: Work out in the morning, draw in the afternoon, code in the evening...haha~!)

cooperate

"Uh...~"

Usopp, who was originally standing behind Zoro with his arms folded, took a step back almost subconsciously. The fear visible to the naked eye was clearly displayed on his long-nosed body in the form of trembling, and his eyes were involuntarily filled with helplessness. The emotions of denial include a hint of hatred and a hint of anger, but more of it is uncontrollable fear.

"What did you say?"
