"Sorry, sorry! Nami caused you trouble!"
"You sister! Since it's just a misunderstanding, don't pretend to be a cadre of Arlong Pirates and deceive her. Now that Arlong Pirates has been killed, what does she want to do? If brother Gen hadn't happened to be working here today, we would have hung him up later!"
"I know, I will definitely educate her well!"
"Okay, she is also a victim. Be careful in the future and don't remember the things before. Let this child live a new life!"
"I will! Sorry to bother you!"
When Nojiko took Cocoyasi Village Military Police Force out, Nami was still confused.
She still hasn't realized what happened?
At that time...
Surrounded by so many people, after seeing that even taking out the identity of Arlong Pirates cadre was useless, she did not hesitate for a moment and quickly used the Taijutsu she had practiced on the sea, preparing to escape quickly.
However.
Finally, he was caught!
No matter how hard she struggled, there was no explanation, and she was directly captured by this Cocoyasi Village Military Police Force. Just when she thought she was going to be finished, Gen suddenly appeared and stopped her in surprise.
Then...
Gen, who was no longer wearing the brown Sheriff's uniform, but was wearing green... the same clothes as the Sheriff, seemed to have said something to the group of guys, and they let her go.
And Gen also said to her excitedly [Nami, are you finally back?].
Just when she was about to ask what was going on, Gen apologized and asked her to wait. He had already asked Nojiko to pick her up. Now he is still busy and cannot take care of her for the time being!
Really!
What happened?
Gen That guy... is just a peace officer, will he be so busy?
Anyway, in the end...Nojiko came and she was taken out.
At this time.
"Nami~, Nami~"
"Nojiko!"
Hearing Nojiko calling her, Nami also came to her senses. She drove aside Nojiko, whom she hadn't seen for a while, and frowned slightly, saying, "Cocoyasi Village... what happened? And where is Arlong Pirates? Where is Arlong Pirates? And why are you wearing this clothes?"
Green... labor protection clothing?
"Stop, stop, stop! Wait! Nami!" Nojiko quickly stopped Nami who was about to say something with a look of helplessness, and said, "I know what you want to ask, but don't ask so many questions at once, I am only one person!"
"I..." Nami also calmed down, but his eyebrows were still furrowed, and he looked at Nojiko, "Okay! Let's talk about it now!"
However.
The words fell.
"Hmm~" Nojiko frowned slightly and did not speak immediately.
The curious Nami was a little anxious, "Nojiko!"
"Sorry, too many things have happened, I just don't know what to say!" Nojiko shook his head helplessly, and then looked in front of him... wearing the same simple blue and white short lining that was washed white when he went to sea, and an orange hip skirt.
Ever since that incident at Bell-mère, Nami she no longer bothered to buy new clothes.
A smile appeared on his face, "Let's go home first, don't worry, I'll talk as we go!"
"Then... okay!"
Under the leadership of Nojiko, Nami also became quiet and followed Nojiko towards the direction of Cocoyasi Village.
The road... was no longer the dirt road back then, but the same spacious and solid cement road. And as she got closer and closer to Cocoyasi Village, she became more and more shocked.
The wooden Cocoyasi Village door is gone, replaced by a huge stone village door, and the former small wooden houses are also gone, and there are rows of neat and clean small buildings.
This is a small building that she can only see in big cities!
Unexpectedly, everyone at Cocoyasi Village built it.
Cocoyasi Village Are you so rich?
Of course~
What shocked her even more was... Nojiko's words.
"And Arlong Pirates... is gone? What happened to Arlong Park? Why is it still there?"
"Yes! Those guys have been hanged by His Majesty the King! As for Arlong Park..." Speaking of this, Nojiko also showed a strange expression on his face, "That was rebuilt later, and those fishmen..."
"..."
Following Nojiko's words, Nami became silent again, even sluggish.
And looking at Nami, who was stunned with disbelief on his face, Nojiko also sighed in his heart.
They also know that Nami... forced herself to join Arlong Pirates and become a thief in order to protect Cocoyasi Village.
It was clear that Arlong Pirates was suddenly wiped out, but Nami was still a little unbelievable.
"I know you may still not believe that Arlong Pirates is gone, but..."
The words are not finished yet.
Nami shook his head with a dull expression, "No, no! That's not what shocked me."
But...
Damn it!
Arlong Park has really become a park?
And they still charge tickets!
"Is that so?" Nojiko was stunned, and then said apologetically, "I'm sorry for telling you so late. In fact, we wanted to tell you earlier, but you haven't returned to the village yet. Of course, we also asked His Majesty the King and the Navy..."
The words are not finished yet.
As if he heard something again, Nami, who was stunned, suddenly became excited and came back to his senses, "Wait! Navy?"
"Yes! Because of the Bell-mère incident, the navy expressed its apology for its failure to fulfill its responsibilities and agreed to help find you!"
"Those guys really... came here after the matter was over! You must know that Bell-mère is gone!" Nami said with a gloomy face, folding his hands.
Back then, she had been quietly reporting it to the navy, but... she had always failed, and Arlong Pirates found out about it, and was beaten up!
"What's the use of talking about this now? Oh, no..." Thinking of something, he stared at Nojiko and said with a dark face, "That's why the navy has my photo?"
"Yes! After all, it's easier to find you with your photo! What's wrong?"
"..."
What's wrong?
It almost scared me to death, you know?
But after hearing Nojiko's words, she also breathed a sigh of relief. She suddenly felt a lot more relaxed and pursed her lips, "That King of the Land of Grass looks like a pretty nice person~"
He actually did so much for Cocoyasi Village.
She looked at Nojiko who was wearing green work clothes and said, "So Old Tangerine Mama is Bell-mère's marmalade? What did you think it was? It's just such a strange name!"
"This is the name His Majesty the King gave us!" Nojiko said with a smile, "Marmalade is very popular now. Many businessmen come to buy it every day, and I have now become the director of the marmalade factory."
"What about the fees at the pier? You know, other places don't have this..."
The words are not finished yet.
Seemingly understanding what Nami wanted to say, Nojiko said directly, "Well, His Majesty the King said this is a storage fee. As long as it is paid, they are obliged to help customers keep the ship. Part of it will be used to manage the dock and part of it will be used to build Cocoyasi Village. However, as long as it is a Cocoyasi Village local, it does not need to be charged. Are you also charged?"
Then he frowned.
"Speaking of which... the charges are indeed a bit expensive. I will mention your suggestions. In fact, there are already meetings over there to discuss and prepare to formulate a more reasonable..."
"Who said it was too high!" Nami directly interrupted Nojiko and said with a serious face, "I mean it's too reasonable!"
"..."
Nami Still hasn't changed!
Nojiko shook his head helplessly, then looked at the small wooden house in front of him that was different from the house in front, and a smile appeared on his face, "We are here!"
"Here..."
"I haven't changed this place! After all, this is our memory with Bell-mère!" Looking at Nami who was staring blankly at the house, Nojiko shook his head, and then After opening the door, he looked at Nami in front of him with a smile, "Welcome home! Nami~, starting from today... you don't have to carry those things anymore, you can start a new life!"
"Go home!" Nami stared blankly at the familiar wooden house and Nojiko, and said to himself, "Is there... a new... life?"
"Yes! His Majesty the King also said that they will take care of the matter of your stealing. You don't have to worry about it. He also said that you don't have to remember it anymore and you can start your life again!"
"King of the Land of Grass~" Nami came back to his senses.
Yes.
She's home!
You don't have to carry anything anymore!
He blinked, then looked at Nojiko's smiling expression, and immediately raised his head proudly, "I know!"
With that said, he walked into the house.
Although I have never seen that King of the Land of Grass, from Nojiko's words, Nami can always feel what the king did for Cocoyasi Village and himself.
Especially... I didn't expect that he would let her not worry about what she had done before, and specifically told Nojiko to let her live a new life.
I always feel warm in my heart and feel a lot more relaxed.
That should be a righteous king who is full of love, handsome, and generous!
"Don't worry, I will also be grateful to that country..."
However.
The words are not finished yet.
When I was praying while looking at a familiar photo hanging on the wall in front of me, I was stunned for a moment, blinked and looked at the photo, "This is..."
"Oh, this is His Majesty the King!" Seeing the stunned Nami, Nojiko thought she was curious and explained with a smile, "In order to appreciate everything His Majesty the King has done for us, everyone specially left photos of His Majesty the King at home to show respect for His Majesty the King!"
waved his hand,
"Nami, come here quickly! You have to thank His Majesty the King! What's wrong with you...?"
The words fell.
Nami:...
A look of silence.
"Nothing! It's just..." Then he looked at the photo with gritted teeth, "Don't worry, I will be very grateful to our dear King!"
It turns out to be this guy!
"Hey~"
On the other side, Kusana, who was working on documents in the office, suddenly sneezed. Then, after rubbing her nose carelessly, she raised her head and looked at Ms. Robin, who was busy in front of her.
The Land of Grass characteristic white lady's white-collar short lining and tight-fitting hip skirt match the plump figure unique to the sea.
As he shuttled between offices, Kusana nodded with satisfaction, "By the way, pour me a cup of hot tea~"
"..."
