One Piece Holy Lord System
Chapter 7 The Burning Nightmare
"Huh?~"
Nami's thinking was obviously short-circuited for a moment. She never thought that Bai Xiao would give such a reason.
But... cute? !
Whoosh!
A wisp of flame swept past and landed on a pile of sea charts piled in the corner of the room. The charts immediately burned. The fire had not yet spread, but the temperature in the room had suddenly risen.
"Ah, this is it?"
Nami was pulled back from her thoughts and looked at the scene in the room with wide eyes.
"Since I want you to be my crew member, how can I allow you to carry these useless memories? Is it possible that you still have memories of those sea charts drawn by your own hands?"
Bai Xiao said lazily, not feeling there was anything wrong with his approach at all.
Nami looked at the burning sea charts in silence, but what appeared in her eyes was joy, like a heavy stone that had been pressed in her heart for a long time, and was finally smashed to pieces at this moment.
In two years, Nami drew hundreds or thousands of charts for Aaron, but she never thought that it was her own hard work, but a kind of tangible torture.
With each additional chart, the pain in Nami's heart increases. When drawing a chart, she often can't help but recall the past.
Aaron's ravages, the disaster in Cocosia Village, Bellemere who stood up for her, and the nightmarish gunshot.
At this time, the flames spreading in the room seemed to be swallowing up the accumulated pain bit by bit. Nami felt a soreness in her nose. Although she wanted to control it, her tears fell silently.
Under the light of the fire, the emotional Nami slowly turned around, and for the first time her eyes met Bai Xiao, who still looked casual, without any burden. She said softly: "Thank you."
"Can I understand this kind of gratitude as a response to the invitation?"
Bai Xiao naturally understood the meaning of Nami's thank you.
"I will try my best to help you. Although I am still young and my understanding of many things is not deep enough, I will study hard."
Nami finally gave a positive response. More than half of this response was sincere, and the other half was fueled by emotional release.
After all, Nami still has a lot of reluctance to leave this village, which can be called her second home, but her intuition tells her that the man in front of her is the kind of person she can trust.
After experiencing the nightmare caused by Aaron, Nami began to cherish this hard-won freedom even more. Although Bai Xiao's identity is unknown, since he decided to sail the world, it coincided with her dream.
Nami's dream is to travel around the world, see the world's oceans with her own eyes, and draw the most comprehensive world map.
However, Nami has always hated pirates because her home kingdom was attacked by pirates.
"Let's leave the expression of determination until later. Besides, it all depends on your interests. I should have said that once you get on my ship, you will be the freest person."
Bai Xiao poked his back with his thumb. The fire in the measurement room had gradually spread. If he didn't leave, the little Nami who had just been "abducted" might be burned into a small pepper.
"Ah."
Nami nodded vigorously, then followed Bai Xiao's footsteps, and the two of them left the measurement room together.
"Um, Captain?"
While running up the stairs leading to the lower level, Nami thought about it in her mind for a moment before making a tentative sound.
Although Bai Xiao said that his identity cannot be defined by the word "pirate", since he decided to set sail, there should be no problem in calling him captain.
"What's up?"
"I don't know your name yet. Oh, by the way, my name is Nami. I like oranges and treasures."
Nami seemed to have adapted to getting along with Bai Xiaojian a little, and she even openly confided her "hobby" like "treasure".
"Bai Xiao."
"Captain Bai Xiao, before leaving, I still have some things that must be dealt with."
When she said this, Nami subconsciously glanced at the tattoo on her arm.
"You do have something you must do, and I don't want my crew to have the mark of garbage on their arms."
Bai Xiao said calmly.
Nami's steps paused slightly, and there was some confusion in her heart. She didn't expect that the seemingly casual Bai Xiao would have such a delicate side and even notice the tattoo on her arm.
That tattoo was something she had to get when she was forced to become a cadre of the Arlong Pirates. Every time she saw it, she couldn't help but want to pierce the ugly pattern with a sharp knife.
But suddenly, Nami realized another thing and glanced at Bai Xiao with a slight guilty conscience.
"How about replacing it with your favorite orange?"
Sensing Nami's gaze, Bai Xiao also thought of something.
But his sudden words hit Nami's heart again. Her eyes were slightly dull, even a little unbelievable. She didn't understand at all, why Bai Xiao, who was obviously just meeting for the first time, had such thoughtful thoughts that warmed her heart every time. A wounded corner.
Soon, Bai Xiao took Nami out of the building. The injured Xiao Hachi and Croobie had disappeared. They probably used the 'Octopus Pot' to leave Aaron Park. The two swimming pools are actually connected to the sea. It's very convenient to run away.
Aaron was killed in battle, and the cadres either died or fled. At this point, Aaron Park was completely declared destroyed. Bai Xiao didn't care what would happen next. He always only acted according to his own ideas.
Returning to Cocosia Village, Nami was excited to meet her sister Nokigao immediately. Even though they had disputes and differences when they grew up together, after they reunited again, all the troubles disappeared, and they were counting down the memories. Scars, cry and laugh as much as you want.
The same is true for the misunderstanding between Nami and the village. In fact, the anger and disgust shown by the villagers because Nami joined the Arlong Pirates were disguise and understanding. They knew that Nami chose to save the village. Sacrifice yourself and force yourself to accept Aaron's invitation.
From the beginning to the end, Bai Xiao did not show up. These things can be left to Nami herself. This is her happy time.
Bai Xiao had no plans to sail immediately. Instead, he took the initiative to let Nami take advantage of this period to digest her emotions, while he used the resurrected Black Shadow Corps to hone his body and combat consciousness.
Although the Holy Lord System is an extremely reliable means of leaping forward in abilities, Bai Xiao is not stupid enough to rely entirely on the system. If he wants to do whatever he wants in this vast ocean with surging undercurrents, he must become stronger, and The only way to go.
By the way, Bai Xiao simply treated the wound on his left shoulder. Relying on his physical attributes, wounds of this level can be repaired slowly over time.
three days later.
Coast of Cocosia village.
"Captain Bai Xiao!"
Nami, who asked the best master in the village to replace the tattoo on her arm with a symbol of 'windmill' and orange, saw Bai Xiao on the boat from a distance and waved.
Not far behind her, Ajian and Nokigao followed secretly. Even if Nami specifically told them not to see her off, they heard that Nami was going to sail with a man. No matter what, they couldn't remain calm.
"Is that Nami's little boyfriend? Although I can't see clearly, he seems quite handsome. I didn't expect Nami to be quite discerning."
Master Nuoqi held his chin with his hand and fixed his eyes on Bai Xiao on the bow of the boat. After looking at it for a while, he couldn't help but nod.
"Huh, because Nami is the one who emphasizes and trusts her so much and is the benefactor who saved the village. Otherwise, I would never hand Nami over to any man."
Ajian's attitude seems tough, but in fact he is full of tenderness in his heart. He is the man who desires Nami's happiness most. For Nami, Ajian plays the role of a father.
"Mr. Ken, you still have the same virtue, but looking at the smile on Nami's face, she seems really happy."
Nuo Qigao first teased Ajian beside him, and then said from the bottom of his heart.
"If I dare to let the smile on Nami's face disappear, I won't let him go even if I chase him to the ends of the world."
Ajian watched the boat gradually move away, making a determined decision.
