The overnight rain had drowned out all traces of last night’s battle, and only the faint smell of blood on the deck remained to testify to last night’s unrest.
The next morning’s sun was exceptionally bright.
Nami opened her eyes after a lazy stretch.
Then…
“Ah!!!” A shriek from the group announces the start of another energetic day for the Faceless Pirates!
Bam, bam, bam, bam!
Tables and chairs fly around the room!
“No! Nami, listen to my explanation!”
Will, who was kicked out of the room, looked depressed, followed by a big yawn..
Last night, he didn’t worry about Nami, so he stayed by the bedside, taking care of her while studying the devil fruit with a very ‘special’ history and the new ability of the Infinity Gauntlet.
Then he fell asleep because he was so sleepy and tired.
But he doesn’t know what happened, maybe it was because it was too cold, but when he fell asleep, Will crawled into Nami’s bed, and they embraced each other and had a good sleep.
And so there was the scene where Nami just stormed him off!
Half an hour later…
Nami, who was sitting around having breakfast together, after listening to Will’s story, plus the credential from Koby, and the ship that is the ironclad evidence at her feet, she finally recalled the scene last night when she was inexplicably knocked unconscious!
The reason why Nami reacted so strongly before is probably because she thought Will was the bastard who knocked her out!
How could Nami not be outraged at the thought that she might have been knocked unconscious by that man and then XXXO’d!
The good news is that it was just a misunderstanding!
There was also a plausible explanation as to why she woke up to see Will sleeping in her bed as well.
For the sake of the fact that he had saved herself once again and had taken care of her for the night, Nami chose not to worry about what happened earlier.
“Where’s the treasure! My treasure won’t go down with the ship right!”
Nami, who suddenly thought of something, directly grabbed Will’s collar and started shaking it violently!
That’s obviously my treasure…
Will’s desire for survival was so strong that he immediately changed his words to “It’s all in the captain’s cabin.”
Nami immediately relaxed and drank black tea very elegantly, like she didn’t do what she did a few seconds ago.
“But the clothes you bought, and the other supplies on our ship are all gone.”
“Oh, it doesn’t matter, just buy them at the next place, and there should be enough supplies on this ship for more than a hundred people, so no need to worry at all.”
Will’s face twitched, you’re indifferent, but my prize is sinking straight into the sea!
He thinks Nami also heard the hidden meaning in his words, and that’s why she acted so calmly.
Because Will saw a hint of smugness on the side of her mouth as she drank the black tea.
This also made Will hate the man with the glasses even more!
If he had known, he wouldn’t have made it so easy for him to die!
“By the way, I also found this on the glasses man.”
Will tossed Nami another record pointer.
Nami took it and compared it with the record pointer the grumpy woman gave them and found that the two were not pointing in the same direction.
She just didn’t know where both places were, so she couldn’t tell which route to take next.
But it should not make any difference which route they take, the grumpy woman also expects Will to help him find out the whereabouts of Ace, so she should not give them something leading to their destruction.
And the man with the glasses is sinister, but he won’t trap himself, will he!
“So decide on it, Captain!”
“Which route do we take next?”
Nami smiled and put the two record pointers on the table for him to choose.
Will thought, “It’s better to use something you’ve stolen yourself,” he said.
Although his logic was very idiotic, Nami obviously wouldn’t question his captain in such an indifferent matter.
A competent navigator was to be able to sail the ship safely through no matter how treacherous the captain wanted to go!
Instead of the captain deciding on a destination and screaming that it’s too dangerous to go, there’s nothing there that can’t be done!
If that’s the case, what’s the point of having a navigator, if the captain is just a coward?
After carefully putting away both record pointer, Nami put down the cup at once.
“Then let’s begin, my captain!”
……..
Since there were only three labourers on the ship, Nami was the navigator who was responsible for observing the weather and adjusting the direction of the ship, so all other jobs were left to Will, the nominal captain, and Koby, who was always in a difficult situation.
What a relief that he could do so much work at such a young age!
It is called ‘special training’ according to Will! So under this premise, Koby, a child labourer, had to be exploited by him all the time!
But Koby “Special Training” is not useless. Due to all the labour and training these days, Koby’s muscles have taken shape, and he seems a little taller, even his food intake is several times larger than before!
You can’t work if you don’t have enough to eat! Right!
In terms of food, Will has never treated him badly, except for the days when they ate orange fruit every day.
Even if it’s not as good as the Navy’s bug-level ‘food’, it shouldn’t be too bad.
Anyway, Will was feeling good about himself thinking about it. And he couldn’t help but become excited to see Koby growth in the future.
—
After going through a series of chores such as cleaning the deck, tidying the room, making drinks, cooking food…
Koby ate the lunch he had made himself while listening to Nami’s occasional calls to adjust the ship’s direction.
Will and Nami, on the other hand, were enjoying a nice lunch and wine as if they were on a date as a couple.
All kinds of meat and wine are special products of the West Sea, which surprised Will and the two who had never tried them before.
Then in the midst of the delicate atmosphere of the mealtime, Will suddenly heard Nami inadvertently ask.
“I just went around the captain’s cabin, why doesn’t something feel right?”
“What’s not right?” Will looked bewildered.
“What’s piled up inside seems to be all of our ship’s treasure, and the treasure on the glasses man’s ship seems to be a little too small?”
When she said that, the smile on Nami’s face seemed to melt people.
Will immediately felt his back cold and buried his face in his plate, chewing his food while saying vaguely, “Maybe it’s all been used to purchase ships and supplies, after all, it’s impossible for every pirate group to be that rich.”
“It’s good enough to have these unexpected gains!”
“Oh? Yeah~”
Nami stared at him with a burning gaze, as if she was trying to see him through.
Feeling the fiery gaze on his head that was capable of burning him if he wasn’t careful, Will nodded firmly!
“Of course it’s true! Do you think I’ll hide part of it secretly?”
