An Unspoken Understanding (2)

"Yes, from now on we'll live in Wolf Valley. This ship is just for transportation. It's all operated by robots," the Little Black Cat said. "We don't need to worry about that at all."

"That's good. But what if an attacker appears?" Fanxin asked curiously.

They all live inside Wolf Valley, so they can't immediately sense what's happening outside. If an attacker appears, they'll be in big trouble.

"Hehe, that's easy! I've already set up a lot of sensors, with a detection range of five thousand meters. When someone approaches, we'll sense it. When the opponent is only five hundred meters away, the message will be transmitted to Wolf Valley. At that time, you can come out," the Little Black Cat said. "And if the enemy is five hundred miles away, we don't need to worry at all."

"Oh, that's good." Fanxin nodded and said.

"Yes, of course. We still need to arrange for one person to be on duty every day, so that we can take care of both ends," the Little Black Cat said.

Robots are great, but their thinking is too rigid. If they are constantly controlled, some bad things might happen. For example, in the event of a storm, they simply wouldn't be able to make decisions in time.

If someone is outside, they can take immediate evasive action.

"That's fine. Don't worry, I'll arrange for someone with good judgment to direct things outside every day," Fanxin nodded and said.

He didn't want to delegate everything to robots. Robots were good, very loyal, but they were too simple-minded and prone to reckless behavior.

"That's good. Let's start moving things from now on!" the Little Black Cat chuckled and said.

"Okay." Fanxin Xin nodded and said, "Little Black, go and collect all those surveillance cameras and stuff, and put them on the boat. Ren Fang, go and collect Wolf Valley."

"Understood." Ren Fang nodded. The Little Black Cat nodded as well.

"And you?" Ren Fang asked curiously when she saw that Fanxin hadn't moved.

"I'm going to see those monkeys. They've helped me so much, and now that I'm leaving, I naturally want to thank them," Fanxin said.

Those monkeys were indeed a great help to him. If it weren't for them, he might still be struggling here, trying to figure out how to become stronger. However, their intervention allowed him to achieve complete success in just one year.

This is a great favor, and he must go and express his gratitude no matter what.

"Yes, you go ahead, we'll go do other things." Hearing this, Ren Fang didn't stop her and agreed.

"Okay, that's good. I'll be going now." Fanxin nodded, then immediately stood up and headed away into the distance.

Ren Fang and the Little Black Cat split up and started packing their things.

Ren Fang went to collect Wolf Valley. Meanwhile, the Little Black Cat summoned all the monitoring robots on the edge of the island and put them into its Mechanical Space.

Several hours later, they finished all their work and waited by the boat. They were waiting for Fanxin to return.

Meanwhile, Fanxin had already headed deeper into the forest. He didn't run; he walked step by step, wanting to take a look around. Soon he would leave, and who knew when he would be able to return.

Therefore, he decided to take another look, after all, this was where he rose to prominence. If he hadn't come here, it would have been impossible for him to rise to power.

Therefore, he has a very special feeling about this place, as if it were his home.

Children who are away from home will naturally miss this place.

He walked step by step, and several hours later, he finally arrived at the place where he had once cultivated.

However, he searched everywhere but couldn't find the Martial Monkey; he didn't know where they had gone.

"Sigh, it seems they're leaving!" Fanxin said helplessly. He had wanted to say goodbye to them in person, but now it seemed he wouldn't be able to fulfill that wish.

He sat there, observing the place intently. After a long while, he stood up, left, and went far away.

"Hey, wait a minute." Just as Fanxin was about to leave this area, a voice suddenly called out to Fanxin.

Upon hearing this, Fanxin felt it sounded somewhat familiar. He turned around and looked behind him, only to see a parrot flying towards him.

"Hehe, it's you!" Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

"Yes, it's me! Are you getting ready to leave?" the parrot asked.

"Yes, where are the monkeys? Where did they all go? I wanted to thank them," Fanxin Xin asked immediately. The parrot had a good relationship with the monkeys and often played together, so he thought it should know where they were.

"They're gone, and I don't know exactly where they went. They come out every now and then," the parrot said. "You've given up so many years of your life this time, so they might not reappear for decades. Therefore, you won't be able to say goodbye to them."

The monkeys only come out because the strongest monkey's lifespan is nearing its end. So, they come out to take over the lifespans of others.

Generally, they emerge once every ten years or so, and each time they live for several decades. In this way, they can maintain their lifespan for more than ten years.

However, this time, the Fanxin was too generous, directly granting them a lifespan of two hundred years. In this way, they wouldn't need to worry about their lifespan for a short period of time.

"I see. So, why did you come here?" Fanxin asked curiously.

"I'm coming with you. It's too boring here, and the monkeys won't come out, so I have to go play by myself." The parrot chuckled and said, "Hehe, you don't mind if I come along, do you?"

Their job was to translate for the monkeys, but now the monkeys have all disappeared and won't appear for decades. If it stays, it has nothing to do. So, it decides to follow its Fanxin and wander the world.

"Great! You're all welcome. I have plenty of room." Fanxin Xin said with a smile.

Wolf Valley is quite spacious; it can easily accommodate just a few parrots. Besides, he's already become familiar with these parrots, so with them around, he can have heart-to-heart talks with them.

"Alright, wait a moment, I'll bring all my people over." The parrot nodded, let out a hiss, and a moment later, five parrots descended from the sky and landed on Fanxin's shoulder.

"The six of us will go with you," the parrot said.

"Oh, what about the rest?" Fanxin asked curiously.

"This is our home after all, so let's leave some of them here! Otherwise, if the monkeys come out, they won't be able to communicate with others," the parrot said.

Their duty is still to help the monkeys translate, so they can't all leave; some must stay. The few remaining are all older, while the younger ones are the ones who stayed.

They had worked for many years and were perfectly capable of retiring and traveling. So, they decided to leave.

"Alright then!" Fan Fanxin nodded without objection.

"But you all have names, right? You all look the same! I can't tell you apart," Fanxin said.

During training, only one parrot accompanies him at a time. Therefore, he doesn't need to ask its name; he can simply call it "parrot."

However, now there are six of them, and they all look almost identical. If you don't look closely, you really can't tell them apart.

"That's a bit of a hassle. Don't worry! We'll put a tag around your neck, and that way you'll be fine," the parrot chuckled and said.

"That's good. Alright, let's leave!" Fanxin Xin nodded and said.

The parrots nodded, said no more, immediately landed on Fanxin's shoulder, and then followed Fanxin away.

Once outside, Fanxin went straight to Ren Fang.

By this time, Ren Fang and the others had finished packing and were waiting for Fanxin's arrival. When they saw Fanxin arrive, they all stood up to greet him.

"How did you get so many parrots?" Ren Fang asked curiously.

She had never been deep in the forest and did not know that there were parrots there.

"Hehe, they're my friends. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to understand those monkeys at all," Fanxin said. "Now, they're getting ready to travel the world with me, so naturally I'm taking them along."

"Great!" Ren Fang chuckled and patted the parrots. The parrots greeted Ren Fang in return.

"It's so much fun today," Ren Fang said with a chuckle.

"That's right, you'll take care of them from now on!" Fanxin said.

"No problem." Ren Fang nodded, accepting this important task.

"Alright, let's get on the boat and leave!" Fanxin Xin nodded and said.

Without further hesitation, everyone boarded the boat and headed off into the distance.

At this point, the ship is moving in humanoid form, and you can see a giant robot swimming in the sea from a great distance.

Fanxin and the others lived in the very center of the robot.

"Boss, where should we go first?" the Little Black Cat asked.

"Let's go to the Prague Kingdom first. We need to buy some things. After that, we'll head towards the entrance to the Grand Line, Reverse Mountain," Fanxin Xin said after a moment's thought.

Since they started from Reverse Mountain, they haven't had much time to play; they've been rushing around and are exhausted.

Now, they no longer need to hide; they can roam freely in the open. Anyone who dares to stop them can be given a good beating and taught a lesson.

"Okay, I'll issue the command immediately," the Little Black Cat nodded and said.

Fanxin nodded, and then he returned to Wolf Valley. Once inside, Fanxin began to rest. Recently, he had been constantly traveling or fighting, and hadn't had much rest at all; he was exhausted.

He plans to take a good rest and get back to his peak condition.

He left everything outside to Ren Fang and Qiangwei; they were both thoughtful and meticulous, so he figured nothing would go wrong.

After finishing, Fanxin went back to her room to rest.

The rest of the people went about their own business, each in their assigned positions.

After a day and a night, the ship arrived at the coast of the Prague Kingdom.

Their appearance shocked the Prague Kingdom, for they had never seen such enormous robots before; they were practically giants.

His head was as big as a town; it was terrifying.

Upon reaching the edge of the sea, Ren Fang immediately ordered everyone to take their money and start purchasing goods.

She was waiting on the beach with a giant robot.

The Prague Kingdom has dispatched a large number of people, who have surrounded the sea, seemingly targeting Fanxin and his group.

However, Fanxin did not grant them their wish. As soon as he made his move, he knocked down many guards. With a single Haki attack, many of them fainted on the ground.

"Don't be nervous, we're just here to buy things. If you insist on starting a war, then I won't be polite, understand?" Fanxin said coldly.

He didn't want to take action against these ordinary people. However, he had to intimidate them. These guys were getting in his way; they could catch you off guard, and you wouldn't be able to avoid suffering losses.

He's issuing this warning now to make them understand that they'd better be self-disciplined, otherwise, if something goes wrong, he won't be responsible.

Under Fanxin's tyrannical power, they had no choice but to behave themselves. Fanxin's attacks were too powerful; a single glance was enough to take down many people—they certainly didn't possess such abilities.

Fanxin sat on the robot's head, waiting patiently. Several hours later, everyone returned, bringing with them a large amount of food and necessities in vehicles.

"Load it onto the boat, quickly!" Fanxin shouted.

Urged on by Fanxin, everyone immediately got to work, loading all the food and necessities onto the boat. After paying, Fanxin let the boat set sail again.

The guards of the Prague Kingdom could only watch Fanxin and the others leave, unable to do anything else.

Because that ship now has many gun emplacements. If they attack, they will inevitably be hit. At that point, their lives will be in danger.

They didn't want to pursue the enemy knowing they were doomed, because they didn't want to die.

Because of their hesitation, Fanxin and his companions left without any hindrance, heading straight for the sea.

"Boss, what's next? Where should we go?" the Little Black Cat asked.

"Hehe, let's go to the Water 7! I've heard that place is very special; I've never been there before," Fanxin Xin said after a moment's thought.

"Oh, okay. But I heard that Straw Hat Boy got into a fight there. Apparently, he started from there and went straight to Enies Lobby, destroying the entire Enies Lobby?" the Little Black Cat chuckled and said.

"Oh, really? Then I'd better go take a look." Fanxin said immediately upon hearing this.

He had heard of this before, but at that time, he was in seclusion in the forest and hadn't paid attention to the outside world. Therefore, he was unaware of all the things that had happened outside.

"Alright then, let's head that way." The Little Black Cat nodded, then gave the ship a command. The ship immediately swam towards the Water 7.

Twenty days later, Fanxin and the others arrived at the Water 7.

"We've arrived at our destination!" the Little Black Cat reminded them.

Upon hearing this, Fanxin Xin immediately left Wolf Valley. Once outside, he looked into the distance and saw the entire Water 7.

This truly lives up to its Water 7, because the land and sea are almost level. In the event of strong winds and heavy rains, the entire island would be submerged.

By then, the island will be submerged in the sea, along with houses and other buildings.

If you don't evacuate in time, you will definitely be submerged by the sea. Living in this place requires a strong sense of danger prevention; otherwise, you will face certain death.

"The people who live here are indeed extraordinary," Fanxin said.

People living here deal with stormy weather almost year-round. Stormy weather can be deadly; without courage, you simply cannot withstand or overcome it.

If you cannot defeat your opponent, you will be swallowed by the sea.

"That's true. Oh, by the way, I just looked up some information. I heard there's a shipyard here that builds a lot of pirate ships and warships." Ren Fang walked over and said with a smile.

The Water 7 very famous, and its fame is actually related to one person: the Pirate King Roger.

There was a shipwright here who once built a ship for the Pirate King Roger, a ship that was extremely sturdy. It was because of that ship that Roger dared to roam freely without fear.

Without a good boat, your ship will be destroyed in bad weather. At that point, even if you have great ambitions, you'll be unable to move an inch. Because there's seawater everywhere, even if you have amazing swimming skills, you'll still die if you're in the sea all day.

Because of this, when Roger was executed, the shipbuilder was also implicated and subsequently killed.

Because of this incident, the Water 7 became famous, and even people from far away knew about it.

"Unfortunately, we already have boats, so we don't need them anymore," Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

If he didn't have a boat, Fanxin wouldn't mind buying one. However, since he already has one, he naturally doesn't need one anymore.

"That's true, let's go have some fun," Fanxin said with a smile. Having come all this way, he naturally had to have some fun; otherwise, his trip would have been pointless.

"Okay, sure," everyone nodded in agreement.

"Alright, but I have one request that you must remember: you absolutely cannot disrupt people's lives, understand?" Fanxin warned, "If you cause trouble here, I won't be so lenient."

Although he was a pirate, he was still a human being. He didn't want to Fanxin bottom line, which was the most basic principle of being human. If you can't even abide by this, then you can't be considered human; you're more like a demon.

He had to comply, and his crew had to comply as well. Otherwise, he would have no choice but to expel them.

"Understood," everyone nodded and said.

"Very good, stay here for three days! We'll meet back here after three days," Fanxin said. "You all have martial arts skills, so take good care of yourselves."

"Little Black, stop the boat!" Fanxin said.

The Little Black Cat nodded, and then it docked the boat at the shore.

After parking, he immediately opened the exit. Soon after, people came out and went outside.

"Alright, you guys take the money and go have some fun! Be careful," Fanxin said.

Soon, everyone took their money and left to enjoy the Water 7.

Only the Little Black Cat, Qiangwei, Chen Yuning, and Ren Fang remained by Fanxin's side.

"How enthusiastic!" Fanxin said with a smile.

"Isn't that right? Anyone would be bored to death after staying there for almost two years," Ren Fang said with a smile.

"Alright, let's go have some fun then," Fanxin said. "But what about this ship? Are we just going to leave it here? If the navy finds it, that would be a real problem."

Although he wasn't afraid of the navy, they were quite a nuisance. He didn't want to deal with them too much. If they discovered the ship, they would definitely come and cause damage.

"That's easy. I already thought of it before I even made it," the Little Black Cat chuckled. "It can also dive, it can go down to thousands of meters below the seabed."

"Oh, really? In that case, there's no problem." Fanxin Xin nodded slightly and said.

At a depth of several thousand meters underwater, even if the marines were incredibly skilled, it would be impossible for them to reach that depth and damage a ship.

Because the water pressure is extremely high thousands of meters below the seabed. It's hard to say whether they could even operate there, let alone destroy their ships.

"Okay, I'll have him dive immediately," the Little Black Cat said. Then, it gave the ship the order.

A moment later, the boat closed the entrance, and then began to submerge. Soon, it disappeared from sight.

"Alright, all done." The Little Black Cat patted its front paws and said with a smile.

"In that case, let's go have some fun!" Fanxin Xin nodded and said.

After saying that, everyone stopped hesitating and immediately headed towards the Water 7.

Unbeknownst to Fanxin and the others, they had been spotted by the navy the moment they arrived. The navy dispatched spies to monitor Fanxin.

Although Fanxin didn't know, even if he did, he wouldn't care. Because he was no longer the same person he used to be.

Fanxin led everyone on a leisurely stroll through the streets and alleys of the Water 7. When they saw something delicious, they sat down to eat; when they saw something fun, they joined in, having a great time and completely forgetting the passage of time.

That night, they stayed in the Water 7 and did not return to Wolf Valley.

"I'm so happy today, look, they're not sleepy yet," Ren Fang said with a smile, pointing to everyone.

"Isn't that right? We were always so focused on getting there before that we never realized how enjoyable traveling could be," Fanxin nodded in agreement.
