Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

Everyone knows that Reina can absorb damage (energy), so it's not easy to hurt Reina.

"Stop talking, I'm having a bit of bad luck! By the way, why did the island suddenly shake earlier? Was it an earthquake?" Reina said, sounding a little annoyed.

This was also the first time he discovered that as his physical strength was depleted, the Black Emperor's abilities would gradually decrease. Previously, due to the lack of oxygen, his physical strength was greatly depleted, so after taking a hit from the monster fish, the energy he could absorb had reached its limit.

“Go out and see for yourself. For some reason, the island seems to be rising. Part of the part that was previously covered by seawater has already emerged above the surface. I estimate that by tomorrow morning, it will be completely above the water!” Marco said, somewhat puzzled.

"Huh? What time is it now?" Reina was taken aback. He quickly opened the system and saw that his basic work time had been completed. Only then did he secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's already evening, you should rest first. I'll have someone bring you some food later!" Marco patted Reina on the shoulder and told him to get some rest before leaving the tent.

Perhaps because of his previous unconsciousness, Reina felt weak but couldn't fall asleep. He struggled to sit up, but his back ached terribly. He then remembered what Marco had said about his back injury.

"What are you doing? If you're injured, just lie down!" Just then, the tent was opened again, and Olvia walked in carrying a small bowl.

"It's nothing... I just think I slept for too long, so I couldn't fall back asleep and wanted to sit up!" Reina tugged at the corners of his mouth, making himself look like he was smiling.

Seeing this, Olvia put down the small bowl she was holding and came over to help Reina sit up.

"Are you alright?" After settling down, Reina noticed the awkward atmosphere in the tent and asked first.

"Hmm... I'm fine! I was just a little short of oxygen. Marco checked me out after I was rescued, and I'll be fine once I wake up!" Olvia glanced at Reina's back and noticed that the movement just now seemed too much, causing the wound on his back to burst open again, and the bandage was stained red once more.

"Phew~ It's good that you're alright. I'm sorry, it was my fault for not protecting you properly!" Reina said, rubbing his nose somewhat embarrassedly.

After all, he had promised Dr. Kuroha that he would take good care of Olvia.

Olvia shook her head, biting her lip, and said, "If it weren't for you, I might be dead by now!"

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and fell silent. Reina didn't know what to say, but he felt that there was a strange atmosphere in the air, which made him fall silent as well.

“Oh, right, these are some herbs I found nearby. They’re good for healing wounds. Have some!” After a moment of silence, Olvia seemed to remember why she had come. She handed the small bowl she had brought in earlier to Reina and said.

Reina looked at the dark, unidentifiable thing in the bowl and was about to refuse, but seeing Olvia's expectant look, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Looking at the black water in the bowl, Reina thought that with Marco there, Olvia and the others wouldn't give him anything poisonous, so he gritted his teeth and drank all the black water in the bowl.

"Hiccup... um... cough cough... you've only just recovered, so please don't overwork yourself. I'm fine!" Reina said to Olvia, suppressing the urge to vomit.

"Oh no... Sister Olvia, what the book says seems a bit different from the herbs we just picked. Maybe we shouldn't give it to Reina yet, and let's ask Brother Marco first?" At this moment, Olga rushed in with a thick book and shouted to Olvia.

However, upon seeing the empty bowl in Reina's hand, Olga's lips twitched involuntarily, and she slowly backed away, intending to escape.

"Stop!" Seeing Olga about to run away, Reina immediately stopped her. He then looked at Olvia, who was burying her head in the sand like an ostrich with her ears already red, sighed, and said, "Take the bowl with you. Also, I'm a little hungry. Could you please get me some food?"

"Oh...okay! Okay!" Olga quickly took the small bowl from Reina's hand and replied with a slightly ingratiating tone.

"Ugh~ What's that smell? It's so awful! By the way, Reina, how did you manage to drink that? Are you alright? Should I call Marco over to check on you?" Olga said with a look of disgust as she sniffed the lingering smell on the small bowl.

Reina's eye twitched. If he hadn't witnessed everything just now, he would have definitely thought that Olvia and Olga were playing a prank on him.

Seemingly realizing she had said something wrong again, Olga stuck out her tongue and ran out of the tent.

"I...I'm sorry! I..." Olga left, and Olvia looked up slightly, saying apologetically.

"It's alright! Don't worry, I'm perfectly healthy, there won't be any problems!" Reina forced a smile and said against his will.

"Gurgle...gurgle..."

As if being slapped in the face, Reina's stomach made some strange noises as soon as he finished speaking, and at the same time he felt a pain in his stomach.

"Um...are you alright? I...I'll go get Marco!"

"Do not……"

Before Reina could finish speaking, Olvia had already disappeared from sight as she ran away in a panic.

A short while later, Marco returned to Reina's tent, carrying some food.

"By the way... are you alright? I saw what Olga and the others brought back; it's just some wild grass, nothing poisonous!" Marco handed the food to Reina and asked with a smile.

“I’m not dead yet!” Reina replied weakly.

His genetic lineage grants him immunity to all poisons. Even if those things are poisonous, they won't harm him; they'll only cause him some suffering.

I had originally planned to rest for a while and then get my overtime pay for today, but now it seems I have no choice but to continue resting. Otherwise, if I miss tomorrow's work time, Reina will really go crazy.

After eating some food, Reina finally felt a little better.

After finishing their meal, Whitebeard, Lakuyo, Thatch, Vista, and others came to check on Reyna one after another. They were relieved to see that he was alright.

After everyone left, Reina noticed something strange: everyone who came in looked at him with odd eyes. This puzzled Reina, as he didn't remember doing anything strange.

"Could it be that I said something strange while I was unconscious, and they heard it?" Reina stroked his chin, speculating.

"Reina...are you asleep?" At that moment, Olvia's voice came from outside.

"No! Is this Olvia? Come in!"

Only after hearing Reina's voice did Olvia carry a large basin into Reina's tent.

"Huh? What are you doing?" Reina asked in surprise when he saw the large basin in the other person's hand.

He was genuinely scared now; what if the other party pulled some unexpected trick again?

"I'll change your dressing!" Olvia looked a little shy beneath her silver hair.

Chapter 101 The Crew's Misunderstanding

"Ah~ um... I can do it myself!" Reina was a little taken aback by Olvia's words.

“I should have changed your dressing a long time ago, but I knew Dad and everyone else would come to see you, and you certainly wouldn’t stay in bed quietly, so I waited until they all left before changing your dressing.” Olvia smiled slightly, seemingly transforming back into the dashing Nicole Olvia.

"Hmm?" Reina looked at Olvia, who had already started, and was a little puzzled. Shouldn't it be Olvia's turn to change the medicine?

So how did she know that she should have changed her medication a long time ago?

However, although Reina was puzzled, he honestly did not ask.

"What did you do before you became a pirate?" Olvia gently removed the blood-stained bandages from Reina's back.

Because the bandage had already formed a scab, the wound was damaged again when the bandage was removed, and fresh blood flowed out again.

“Hiss~ Before? I don’t know either. I was injured in the head and was rescued on a small island! After I woke up, I forgot everything that happened before. Apart from this tag I always carry with me, I have nothing else!” Reina said, looking down at the unknown metal tag hanging on his chest.

"Huh?" Olvia was taken aback. He hadn't expected this. He quickly and gently wiped Reina's back while saying, "I'm sorry... you don't even remember your family?"

“The uncle who saved me said that I was probably attacked by pirates! As for my family and such… they’re probably all dead at the hands of pirates! The only thing that can prove my identity is this tag!” Reina chuckled and said.

He was originally a transmigrator and had no feelings for the parents of this body, so he couldn't say he was sad.

"Huh? Is this your name? But why... is part of it crossed out?" Olvia took the sign from Reina and asked curiously.

"Yes! I crossed that out myself!"

"Why? Does it mean I'm separating myself from my former self?" Olvia asked, touching the unfamiliar metal plaque.

“No! I asked around about that metal, and it’s not an ordinary metal, so my identity might not be simple. Maybe I’m some kind of noble! But I’m a pirate now, so it’s best not to get involved with them!” Reina shook his head and said.

Olvia stopped bandaging Reina; she hadn't expected such a reason.

"Then why did you become a pirate?"

"I didn't want to either! After the uncle rescued me, I helped him at the tavern. Then one day, a group of pirates came and bought a lot of drinks! The uncle asked me to help deliver them, and as a result... I became a pirate!" Reina shrugged and said helplessly.

He didn't tell the other party that he had stayed on the pirate ship voluntarily because the system on him had bound him to the profession of pirate.

"Huh?" Olvia was genuinely surprised. She had considered countless reasons why Reina was called a pirate, but she had never imagined it would be like this.

"Pfft...you...you're such an idiot!" Olvia was amused by Reina's experience of becoming a pirate. Who delivers goods and ends up becoming a pirate?

“There’s no other way… I have to survive!” Reina smiled and said.

"Then...can I know your full name?"

“Of course, but you have to keep it a secret! Nobody knows my full name except my older brother!” Reina nodded and said, “Benelli D. Reina! That’s my name!”

The reason Reina crossed out the name on the sign was not because he himself was unsure of any possible relatives, but because of "D".

As a time traveler, he naturally understood the important role of the D clan in the main storyline of the time travel, so he concealed the D clan early on.

“Beniri D. Reina? What a nice name! Maybe you really are some kind of nobleman!” Olvia re-bandaged Reina’s bandages, tying a cute bow at the end, and said with a smile, “Rest well tonight and don’t move around! I’ll come back to change your dressing tomorrow morning!”

"Thank you for your help!" Reina said apologetically.

"It's alright! Get some rest, I won't bother you anymore! Goodnight!" Olvia said, and then walked out of Reina's tent.

After receiving his wages for the day, Reina fell asleep.

The next morning, Reina's biological clock woke him up on time. He tried to move his body and found that although it was still a little inconvenient, it was not as painful as yesterday.

Just as Reina sat up, he noticed that Olvia had already walked in carrying a large basin.

"So early? Why not sleep a little longer?"

“I guessed you would wake up around this time, so I came over!” Olvia didn’t answer Reina, but instead skillfully began to remove his bandages and reapply the medicine.

"I guess I won't need this anymore? I feel much better!" Reina said, frowning as he looked at the bandages that were about to be wrapped around him again.

"That won't do. You're a doctor yourself, you should know the benefits of bandages!" Olvia ignored Reina and continued to wrap the bandages around him.

After bandaging him, Olvia helped Reina wash up, giving him a taste of what it's like to be a wealthy landowner.

When Olvia helped Reina out of the tent, Reina felt that the air around them was filled with some kind of inexplicable atmosphere. The crew members around them seemed to have been put on pause, just staring blankly at him and Olvia.

"Ahem... Um... Reina! Are you feeling better?" Marco coughed, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

"Yeah, yeah! Reina, are you feeling better?"

"If you're injured, you shouldn't come out. It's good to rest more!"

As if the world had been reactivated, the crew members around him casually remarked while pretending to go about their business.

“Olvia came in the morning, and she came to change my dressing! She’s so much better than those guys who call me brother but won’t even change my dressing!” By now, Reina knew exactly what they had misunderstood.

However, he knew that this kind of thing was hard to explain, so he didn't explain too much and instead took the opportunity to change the subject.

Sure enough, Marco was the first to change color. He was about to say that such a small injury required a new dressing, but seeing Olvia's expression, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

“Um… Reina! Marco said that you are mainly exhausted right now, and your injuries shouldn’t be too serious, so we…” Hansen knew how petty Reina was, so he quickly stepped forward to explain.

"I didn't say that! I don't know! It wasn't me!" Marco immediately stepped back, issuing a triple denial.

The people around quickly distanced themselves from Hansen. They all realized that the key point of Reina's words was that Olvia had arrived in the morning, while only Hansen, that simpleton, was explaining why he hadn't changed Olvia's dressing.

"No... how could it not be you? Didn't you say it yourself yesterday?" When Hansen heard Marco deny it, he quickly turned around and yelled at Marco, while frantically giving Marco winks.
