Chapter 618 Nami: I can’t choose, only the pirate path can I go! (Ch 618)

As they talked and walked along the way, Aaron was soon tricked by Nami into arriving at the gate of Nami’s house.
The yard is much better than it was back then, but it doesn’t feel like a nouveau riche house. It still looks simple, neither too big nor too small.
That’s true. There are only three of them, mother and daughter. Why should we build a too big yard?
“I am a super navigator who has memorized, mastered, and memorized books like “Navigational Atlas”, “Explanation of Climatology”, “Tides and Undercurrents”, “Navigator” and so on. If I don’t use my skills, wouldn’t all those years of studying be in vain?” Nami said as she walked.
In the original story, Nami relied on her talent for sailing. It was not until she arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago and was disbanded for two years that she truly and systematically learned sailing knowledge and became even more powerful.
But the problem is, before this, she had relied solely on her talent and the sailing experience she had gained on her own to be a big shot in the first half of the Grand Line, and she could even land on a sky island.
Even Shiki, the big boss who values ​​navigators the most, covets it.
In other words, even without systematic learning and mastering navigation knowledge, Nami was able to beat most of the top climatologists and navigators relying solely on her talent.
In the original story, it wasn’t that Nami didn’t want to learn this knowledge.
She simply does not have the energy or qualifications to study.
Their Cocoa Village was enslaved by Arlong’s pirate group, and Nami was even forced to join Arlong’s army and become his so-called partner.
Adoptive mother Bellmère was beaten to death by Aaron early on.
Nami, who was still a child at the time, could only live a hard life with her sister Nojiko.
They went to sea to cheat and deceive in order to collect enough money to liberate everyone.
Who has the energy to learn all this sailing knowledge?
Even though Aaron was impressed by Nami’s talent, he just let it grow wildly.
But now it’s different. Orgrim didn’t do much. He just came to the East China Sea, stayed at Nami’s house, and fell in love with the oranges here. That’s all.
But the fate of Nami and her family of three changed dramatically.
Even the fate of the entire Kekoyasi village took a different path.
Nami is now the daughter of a wealthy family and is qualified to learn anything she wants.
Therefore, she had started learning the knowledge of a navigator very early. With systematic learning and extraordinary talent, there is no doubt that even though she still does not have much experience going to sea, she only occasionally follows merchant ships and travels in the East China Sea.
Even though she is just a young beautiful girl now, when it comes to sailing skills, she can be considered world-class.
“Of course I support you in my stance. Hammer Master asked me to stay here to protect you and let you grow up. In my opinion, you have been my companion for a long time. But Nami, Hammer Master also said that you can’t force anything. I can only do my best…” Aaron said with a smile.
“I wasn’t forced! I wanted to be a pirate from the bottom of my heart!” Nami complained.
Then, the two of them entered the yard together. Bellmère was not there, but Nami was not surprised. She took Arlong directly to the backyard.
There is an orange grove in the backyard. As expected, as soon as you go in, you can see Bellmère and Nojigo, who are taking care of the orange grove.
Like Nami, Nojiko has become more youthful and beautiful.
However, Bellmère has not changed much. He is still dressed very simply and has a capable feeling.
Perhaps, those military careers still left traces on her.
With a half-burned cigarette in his mouth, Bellmère turned around after hearing footsteps behind him and said, “Nami, you ran out so early in the morning. Have you finished your work?”
“Don’t worry, Bell-mère, I get up earlier than all of you. The orange grove I’m responsible for has already been cleaned up.” Nami said proudly with a smile on her face, waving her arms.
Bellmère also laughed and said, “You are really capable…”
“Mr. Aaron, you’re here? Would you like to have an orange?” Nojigao greeted Aaron with a smile.
Aaron was not polite at all. Over the years, he and the people of the Bellmère family had become very familiar with each other.
They can be called ‘one of our own’.
He smiled and picked an orange from the orange tree in front of him. He then rubbed it and observed it for a while before peeling the orange skin. Looking at the flesh inside, he said with a smile, “It’s still top-notch. Even though I haven’t eaten it yet, I can be sure that this is definitely a super delicious orange, worthy of being produced by the Orange Queen…”
“Hahahaha, when it comes to growing oranges, I’m the best in the world.” Bellmère also laughed.
“How is the yield this year? It should be very good, right?” Aaron took a bite of the orange, feeling the sweetness and deliciousness in his mouth, and asked with a smile.
“The weather has been good this year, and there haven’t been any insect pests. Although the yield has not yet been released, it will definitely be quite good, and we will be able to make a lot of money again…” Bellmère said with satisfaction.
“I heard that a Chamber of Commerce from Avalon came and said they wanted to cooperate with you?” Aaron asked.
“You are well-informed. You have been at sea for two months…” Bellmère smiled and continued, “That’s right, but I haven’t thought about it yet…”
“The Chamber of Commerce of the Avalon Dark Group is definitely our own people. They also know that this is the place that Hammer takes care of. They dare not do anything messy, and they will not cheat you. If you are interested, I can come forward and help you talk…” Aaron nodded and said.
Bellmère thought for a moment, then said, “Let me think about it…”
“Yeah, of course.” Aaron said in agreement.
At this moment, Nami stood beside Aaron, tugged at his clothes, and when she saw Aaron turning his head, she quickly winked at him.
I didn’t ask you to come home to talk about oranges or oranges, but to go sailing! Sailing!
I want to go to sea!
Aaron smiled and turned to look at Bellmère again. Bellmère seemed to have noticed Nami’s little movements and glared at Nami fiercely.
Nami whistled as if nothing had happened.
“Haha, stop staring. Bell-mère, Nami is old enough to go to sea. You should all know her talents and dreams, right?” Aaron said with a smile.
“I’m a super awesome navigator, and my dream is to draw a nautical chart of the entire world by myself…” Nami quickly followed, fearing that Bell-mère didn’t know.
Bell-mère glared at Nami again, but then shook his head helplessly.
“Before Hammer left, he said that if Nami wanted to go to sea, she would be more than welcome to join. I don’t need to say much about how much my Hammer has taken care of Nami and you all over the years, right? So isn’t it a good thing to let Nami join our Warhammer Pirates? There is a bright future ahead…” Arlong said with a smile.
Bellmère hesitated for a moment, then said, “But, you are pirates after all…”
“What’s wrong with being a pirate?” Nami said very dissatisfiedly.
Without waiting for Bell-mère to speak, Nami continued, “Because of the navy, what kind of life did the three of us in Cocoa Village lead? No one was happy at all, but when the Warhammer Pirates came, how did we live afterwards? So, what’s wrong with pirates? Just like the navy, there may be righteous navy and corrupt bastard navy. Among pirates, there must be pirates who destroy everyone’s happiness and pirates who create happiness!”
“Nami, you may not know that the Warhammer Pirates may not be the kind of pirate group that you imagine can create happiness. Here, this Cocoa Village is just an exception. They…” Bell-mère couldn’t help but say.
“Of course I know!” Nami said without hesitation.
Still without waiting for Bell-mère to speak, Nami continued, “Over the years, I have investigated and studied the Warhammer Pirates a lot. Even Orgrim, I have heard his stories and experiences countless times. I know a lot about the Warhammer Pirates!”
Bellmère stood there in a daze, not knowing how to start for a moment.
“Yes, the Warhammer Pirates are the most powerful pirate group in the world today. Their actions are indeed not very nice, and can even be called quite evil. But the more I study, the more I find that things are not as they seem on the surface. Let me give you the simplest example. Back then, it was called ‘the most chaotic island in the world’, ‘the largest pirate paradise in the New World’, ‘the island of eternal night cursed by God’… Avalon, what’s the situation?” Nami asked first.
But before anyone could answer, Nami continued, “That is a place that only pirates are willing to go to. It is an extremely evil place. But what about now? In the whole world, at least from a businessman’s perspective, who doesn’t yearn for Avalon? The chaotic dark world has become orderly. Avalon, which was originally littered with corpses, is now the pearl of the Eternal Night Sea… No, it can even be said that it is the most prosperous, most promising, and most powerful place in the entire New World! Under the rule of the Warhammer Pirates, it has become the core of the New World! And the entire Eternal Night Sea is the most peaceful sea in the New World. During several chaotic wars in the New World, the Eternal Night Sea was protected by the Warhammer Pirates…”
“So, I don’t need to look at what the Warhammer Pirates have brought to others, because I am a vested interest, and have been living in the territory of the Warhammer Pirates, enjoying the welfare and hope brought by the Warhammer Pirates. Well, I don’t need to hypocritically observe the thoughts of other ‘opponents and enemies’. It is enough for me to experience it myself. In my experience, no matter how the Warhammer Pirates behave to the outside world, they have definitely been creating happiness for everyone internally! It is enough for me to know this!” Nami declared loudly.
Bellmère was stunned.
At this moment, she seemed to understand that Nami had grown up and had her own ideas and thoughts.
Aaron also smiled at this time and said, “Bellmaire, no matter what, you must admit that Nami will go to sea, right?”
Retracting his thoughts, Bellmère nodded and said, “Although I really want Nami to stay by my side, I know that she will definitely go to sea, because… she loves the sea and yearns for the sea… her eyes are full of this kind of ambition.”
“That’s it. If Nami wants to go to sea, she must become a powerful guy. And now, a new era has arrived. This era is the era of the world showdown between pirates and the navy. It is the era that determines the next maritime hegemony. Therefore, if you want to have a wonderful future, going to sea now is nothing more than choosing two directions. First, join the navy, and second, join the pirates… I won’t say anything about the navy, but among the pirates, only my Warhammer Pirates has the greatest possibility of seizing the future. You don’t let Nami join the Warhammer Pirates. Do you expect her to become a navy?” Aaron asked with a raised eyebrow.
Bellmère shook his head without hesitation and said, “The navy can’t…”
Perhaps, she felt that the navy of her headquarters should be the army of justice, but the navy of the East China Sea was really hard to describe.
At the same time, she herself retired from the navy because she had enough.
And I suffered so much because of the East China Sea Navy.
Now, how could Nami be allowed to join the navy?
What’s more, it is said that Kokoa West Village is no longer within the scope of the Navy’s recruitment…
Even if Nami wants to join the navy, I’m afraid the navy won’t want her.
Hearing Bell-mère’s answer, Nami grinned and said with a smile: “So the only way for me to go is to become a pirate, Bell-mère…”
