The answer given by the other party was also within Nami's expectations.

When Nami walked in here, she quickly looked around, but did not see Rayleigh.

Nami, who knows the plot, can guess a little about Uncle Rayleigh's character.

He was probably out in some bar flirting with the beauties, or wasting time in the casino.

It has to be said that as a truly strong man, even if he was once a great enemy of the World Government and is now retired and no longer has the protection of a powerful enough force, he can still enjoy such a stable and comfortable life.

As a strong person, you can survive in this troubled times.

However, Nami still has some doubts about his retirement life.

Is the Navy really going to let Pluto Rayleigh simply enjoy this peace?

Could it be that he has reached some unknown insider deal with the World Government?

For example, as the legend goes, as long as the Pirate King and his crew keep secrets and do not leak important information, they can live a peaceful and worry-free life.

Otherwise, as a former vice-captain of the Pirate King, it would be unreasonable for him to live leisurely and openly on an island near the Navy Headquarters!

Thinking of this, Nami could only shake her head helplessly. Anyway, she didn't intend to ask what secrets they had obtained at the end of the Grand Line.

Then Nami said to Xia Qi: "Oh, what a coincidence! Since Uncle Rayleigh is not here at the moment, there is nothing we can do about it."

As she spoke, Nami took out a note from her pocket, handed it to the beautiful and kind lady in front of her who was having an affair with Rayleigh, and said:

"This is my address in the Sabaody Archipelago. If Uncle Rayleigh comes back, please tell him to come to this address and tell him that Portgas D. Ace is waiting for him there. I believe Uncle Rayleigh will understand after hearing this."

"Also, don't tell anyone else about this except Uncle Rayleigh."

Finally, I smiled and thanked her:

"Thank you for your hospitality and delicious drinks today. Next time I have a chance, I will definitely come to visit again with carefully prepared gifts."

After saying that, Nami turned and left the place, her heart full of anticipation, hoping to meet the legendary figure, Uncle Rayleigh, as soon as possible.

Luffy and Ace looked at Sister Xia Qi eagerly, with their mouths slightly open, as if they wanted to ask for the delicious snacks.

However, before they could finish their words, Nami rushed over, grabbed their arms without saying a word, and dragged them away from the spot.

"Once these two guys start eating, there will be no end to it!"

Nami muttered to herself as she struggled to pull Luffy and Ace.

She knew very well how much these two people loved food. If she let them succeed, it would be strange if they didn't buy out all the snacks in Sister Xia Qi's store.

Moreover, Nami doesn't want to cause trouble for others, especially someone as kind and enthusiastic as Sister Xia Qi. At least that's the case judging from her current performance. But she is more or less black-bellied, after all, she likes to scare Chopper.

This time, since I wasn't that familiar with Nami and the others, I didn't make that kind of joke.

Xia Qi stood there, looking at Nami and her group in surprise as they hurried over, only to leave in a hurry after reporting their names.

What surprised her even more was that Nami was so sure that as long as Uncle Rayleigh heard this name, he would come to her on his own initiative.

In Xia Qi's eyes, this scene was simply a dramatic and extremely bloody plot!

The more Xia Qi thought about it, the more her curiosity grew like weeds.

She couldn't help but start to wonder what kind of twists and turns in this story were hidden?

Could it be that there is some earth-shattering secret involved, or is it related to the old man’s first love or something?

Countless possibilities kept flashing through Xia Qi's mind, making her feel itchy.

Finally, Xia Qi, unable to suppress her strong curiosity, made a prompt decision to go out in person to look for Pluto Rayleigh, the troublesome old man.

She quickly turned back into the store, closed the door without hesitation, and hung a conspicuous closure notice on the door.

You know, Xia Qi, who is engaged in intelligence work on weekdays, is knowledgeable and has a strong resistance to all kinds of ambiguous and half-understood intelligence.

Normally, she would never be like those curious young boys who lose sleep and eat because they don't know what will happen next.

But this time the situation was completely different. For some reason, she always felt that this matter was closely related to the most important person in her mind. No matter how sophisticated she was, she couldn't suppress her inner impulse at this moment.

……

As two people who have lived together for decades, they know each other's habits and places they often go to very well.

It only took Xia Qi half a day to find Reilly, who was drunk and unconscious, in a slightly noisy bar.

Xia Qi has never been a shy person. Seeing Rayleigh like this, she became anxious and just wanted the old man to wake up as soon as possible so that he could answer her questions.

So, without saying a word, she rushed forward and sat on Reilly's broad body with smooth movements.

Then, she raised her hand and mercilessly slapped Rayleigh's weathered face.

For a moment, the crisp and loud sounds of applause came one after another and never stopped.

In less than half a minute, Rayleigh was completely awakened by the torrential high-frequency slaps.

I saw that his cheeks were swollen like two ripe red apples, which looked quite funny.

"Oh my! What's going on? It's you, Xia Qi. I thought we were being chased by those guys from the navy!"

At this moment, Rayleigh felt a splitting headache, as if countless steel needles were stirring wildly deep in his brain; and his already weather-beaten face was burning with pain, as if it had been burned by a raging fire.

He looked at Xia Qi who was riding on him with a blank face, his heart full of doubts and puzzlement. He really couldn't understand why the other party would come here in such a hurry to wake him up from his sweet dream.

Although he has been retired for many years, Rayleigh was once a powerful figure after all, and his perception ability is still very sharp.

When Xia Qi attacked him just now, he did not sense any murderous intent, so he failed to react immediately.

Xia Qi took out the paper that Nami gave him and handed it to Rayleigh and said:

"Just now, the newly promoted Shichibukai Nami brought two little brats into my bar. Among them, there is a guy called Portgas D. Ace. According to Nami, he is your nephew. Just mention this name and you will understand."

When the old man Rayleigh heard the words Portgas D. Ace, his originally cloudy eyes suddenly became as bright as two shining stars.

At this moment, Xia Qi suddenly realized that Nami and the others did have some connection with old man Rayleigh.

"Miss Xia Qi! This is not a place for conversation. There are some things that cannot be said here. Let's go back to your bar first, and I will tell you the whole story."

"I never thought the other party would be so bold as to contact you."

Although he didn't know why those kids came to him so hastily, it certainly wasn't to listen to the story of One Piece. After all, the story of One Piece has long been known to everyone.

Could it be that he wanted to further explore Roger's secrets? But since the other party had come to him, he should still meet him.

Although Roger hoped that the other party could hide his identity and live in peace.

"Great! It seems that there must be some earth-shattering secrets hidden in it! This is what I love most. If it can be sold, wouldn't this information be priceless?"

Seeing Xia Qi's excited face, Rayleigh couldn't help but feel a little amused.

"Please don't sell this information for my sake! Otherwise, many innocent people will be implicated."

Originally, the fewer people who knew about this kind of thing, the better, but Xia Qi was definitely one of the people who could be trusted, and it was not clear why the other party came to the door.

I may need Xia Qi's help in the future, so it's not a bad thing to tell her these things now.
