The Great Voyage: I Became Nami's Brother at the Start

After having a meal and feeling fully recovered, Norton left Spring Queen City without saying a word and headed for Water Seven.

There are still so many things to do, he really doesn't want to wait a moment longer!

Who would want to spend all day chasing after these bastards and neglecting their own work?

As soon as he left, El was completely bewildered.

Did I, the guide, lose sight of the person?!

Fortunately, the beautiful woman in the tavern told him that Norton had left a message asking him to tell Al about his abrupt departure.

El expressed his helplessness regarding this.

……

The City of Seven Waters.

This place isn't very far from Queen's City in Spring; it only takes half a day to get there by plane.

But Sarachi and his crew, who were still waiting for their new ship in Water Seven, weren't going to leave so soon.

Furthermore, since they hadn't received any revenge requests from anyone in the past two days, Sarachi became completely arrogant.

"That clown is making a mountain out of a molehill, saying he came looking for us all by himself! We don't know what that person wants, but does the Black Hand Pirates think we're afraid of just one person?"

Inside the tavern, Sarachi drank his wine while talking in a carefree manner.

"That's right, Captain, why should we be afraid of him?"

"Captain, did the clown say whether it's a man or a woman coming? What if it's a woman who's heard so much about you and wants to see you? Wouldn't you be in for a treat? Hahaha..."

"That's right, Captain. If it's a girl, you're in for a treat!"

"Tch! What's so special about girls? Water Seven has plenty, right? Haven't you guys gotten tired of playing around these past few days?"

"Captain, what are you saying? Women can never get tired of you, right? It's more likely that you'll be the one who can't keep up!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"You bastard! Who are you calling no good? Watch out, or I'll make sure you die on a woman's belly, hahaha..."

A burst of laughter erupted, and the entire Black Hand Pirates laughed unrestrainedly.

They've been staying at this tavern for the past few days, and it's driving the owner crazy.

At this point, P9's people hadn't arrived yet, and Bruno hadn't come to acquire the tavern.

They occupied most of the tavern, sitting there making a racket.

On the other side was a smaller pirate crew, weaker than the Black Hand Pirates in both numbers and strength.

After these few days of interaction, they have gained some understanding of the Black Hand Pirates' strength.

A former member of the Flying Pirates, although the leader, Golden Lion, was captured, didn't he recently escape again?

This means the Black Hand Pirates have gained a powerful backer again, making them even less likely to provoke anyone.

Outside.

"That idiot Doflamingo tipped this guy off? But whatever, we've already found you."

Norton, who had arrived not long ago with the intention of gathering information at the bar, overheard the arrogant conversation and walked in with a cold smile.

Standing at the door, Norton looked around and first glanced at the small pirate crew that wasn't making any noise on the other side, memorizing their appearance.

Then he looked at the Black Hand Pirates, where more than thirty people were sitting. Among them was a big, burly guy with a full beard and wearing a captain's hat, who was the captain of the Black Hand Pirates, Sarachi.

Norton looked at him, and suddenly a cartoon character from his memory came to mind!

那是一个很爱装逼，但又经常失败挨揍的家伙！

He was also a big, burly man with a full beard, and he would often get beaten up for forcing someone to eat spinach and turn into Popeye because he was fighting with them over a slender woman!

Yes, you guessed it, that's Bluto, Popeye's rival and love rival.

Having memorized Pluto… no, I mean, Sarazi’s appearance, Norton went straight to the bar, sat down, ordered a juice, and waited for those bastards to leave.

[Ding! A new ad has been updated. Watching it will reward you with a random reward chest. If you do not view it within ten minutes, the ad will be skipped.]

"Great, I was just wondering what to do with my free time, look... wait a minute, system, why weren't there any ads yesterday in Spring Queen City?"

[Ding! This is a world where martial arts reign supreme, but it is also a cruel world. Every newborn infant, regardless of gender, is sent to the Martial Arts Appraisal Platform on their first day of life to determine their suitability for martial arts training. Once determined to be suitable, they will become the focus of each family's development program. Otherwise, they will be trained as ordinary family administrators...]

The system ignored him and started playing ads immediately.

"That's really cruel. Your fate is decided on the very first day you're born. It's really..."

After watching the advertisement, Norton was not attracted by the earth-shattering fighting in it, but instead lamented the tragic fate that everyone has been destined for from the day they are born.

Because it was just a world of martial arts, the martial arts techniques were indeed very cool, but there was nothing particularly outstanding about them.

In a real fight, it wouldn't be as exciting as the battles in the world of One Piece. At least here there are cool Devil Fruit abilities.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received a random reward chest. Would you like to open it?]

"Open it, it must be opened."

[Ding! Okay, opened!]

The same familiar scene appeared before Norton's eyes.

The golden treasure chest shimmered with golden light; the chest was opened!

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained one special building card, "Royal Palace Treasury"!]

Royal Treasury: A special building that allows you to manage the storage and retrieval of items via a ring.

Chapter 54 The Other Side!

Upon seeing this reward, Norton was overjoyed.

"I...I'm in awe! System, I knew it...you're absolutely true love! With this special treasure trove, I don't even need to travel back and forth to send things back anymore, I love you so much!"

While shouting happily in his heart, Norton couldn't wait to open the management interface, find the building plan of the palace, and transform the secret room next to the A-level faucet into the royal treasury.

In this way, the A-grade water tap, the A-grade winery, and the royal treasury can be connected in one line.

Norton felt relieved when he saw the message that the construction would take thirty minutes.

Actually, when Norton came in and looked him over, Sarazi suspected that this kid was the one who came looking for him.

Finally, seeing that he went to the bar and never looked at me again, I put my suspicions to rest.

A group of people planned to loiter in the tavern until nightfall, but Norton left first to avoid suspicion.

Water City is still quite bustling; instead of spending time staring at them, you might as well just stroll around.

On the way, the royal treasury was completed, and Norton, without a second thought, put the Door-Door Fruit and the Gold-Gold Fruit directly into the royal treasury.

That wasn't all. He then created a production order for 999+ grade A water and 42 grade A wines from the grade A water and grade A brewery.

Once all these things were made, Norton casually stored them in his vault.

"Ready? Time to make the call!" Norton called Eileen and granted her permission to freely enter and exit the royal treasury.

The Den Den Mushi was quickly connected.

"Brother, did you miss me so soon?" Eileen's cheerful voice rang out.

They had just finished their call.

"Yes, yes, yes! Your brother is thinking about you all all the time!"

"whee……"

Hearing this, Eileen was even happier.

"There's something I forgot to tell you. I built a royal treasury in the basement of our palace. Only you and I can open the door and enter. Go inside in a moment. In the center of the treasury are two Devil Fruits. The one on the left is the Door-Door Fruit, a gift I prepared for you. Go get it and eat it. The one on the right is the Gold-Gold Fruit, a gift for Colt. Please give it to him so he can eat it! Colt is absolutely loyal to our country. I need such a powerful and loyal person to guard the kingdom when I'm not around."

"Then, on the left against the wall, is Grade A water. That's for you, Bellemere, Nojiko, Nami, Luffy, and the ministers to drink; it can improve your physical condition. On the right against the wall is Grade 42A liquor, which is specially for Colt and the others to drink during training. Tell them that drinking that liquor before special training will make their efforts twice as effective! Tell them not to slack off; they must train an iron army to protect the Kingdom of Oicot in a short time!"

"If you want to learn swordsmanship, go and invite a skilled teacher back. Our Kingdom of Oycot can no longer remain so weak."

Norton explained everything clearly in one breath, and Eileen on the other end listened obediently the whole time.

"Okay, brother, I'll take care of it right away! But what's the Door-Door Fruit you gave me for?" Eileen was incredibly excited and couldn't help but ask.

Norton patiently explained, "This is amazing! After you eat it, you can open any door anywhere, even in thin air, and go anywhere you want to go!"

"Really? That's great!"

Kaqiu...

Goodness, I don't know what this little girl was thinking, but as soon as she heard it was such an amazing ability, she immediately hung up the phone and ran away.

Norton pursed his lips, put away the Den Den Mushi, wandered around for a while, and then returned to the tavern.

As dusk fell, he returned to the vicinity of the tavern just as the Black Hand Pirates were leaving.

Because of his Observation Haki, Norton didn't need to follow too closely.

Moreover, if he wanted to follow someone, he wouldn't even need to do it himself.

Norton found a decent-looking rooftop, lay down, casually released a paper figure, and closed his eyes.

With his current strength, he can only release and control two paper figures at most; he can't control even one more.

The paper figure floated forward through the air and soon arrived behind the Black Hand Thieves, following them all the way.

As night fell, the paper Norton produced was no longer white, but black.

So the paper figure floated in the sky, blending into the darkness. Without a very strong Observation Haki, it would be impossible to spot him.

Clearly, someone like Sarazi doesn't possess Observation Haki.

According to Norton's analysis, this guy, at best, only has a basic level of domineering aura, and is slightly troublesome.

Norton gave him a few more points because he looked like Pluto.

"Tonight is your death day! Enjoy your last moments!" Norton, lying on the roof, watched them return to their old ship to rest and sneered.

Tonight, he's going to stage a spectacular assassination!

Tonight, he's going to show another side of himself!

After the paper figure followed them onto the ship, it was pasted onto the mast and left to wait until the night was deep and quiet.
