The Great Voyage Begins with the Celestial Dragons

Such an obvious pirate tattoo, yet it was never mentioned when Ace asked about it before...

Nami could only hope that Ace had mistaken it for a regular tattoo, or perhaps one of those gangster tattoos.

The orphans she created, who were just trying to get by, might indeed join some gangs just to get a free meal.

Gangsters, accomplices of thieves, pirates.

These three identities correspond to completely different concepts. Pirates are the Navy's main targets, while the Navy mostly turns a blind eye to the other two as long as they don't run into trouble.

Nami could only pray that no one else recognized the symbol.

But Uta's calm words shattered all of Nami's illusions.

"That's the symbol of the Arlong Pirates!"

"Ah... do you know Miss Uta?"

Nami's expression changed drastically, but her mind was in turmoil, and she couldn't think of a good excuse in a short time.

Uta glanced at Nami, looking at her youthful face, and couldn't help but find it amusing.

If she hadn't known that Nami hadn't joined the Arlong Pirates voluntarily, she wouldn't have said a single word to him, even if he had been chosen by Rude.

Ha, pirates, they all deserve to die!

Because of Shanks' situation, Uta harbors a deep hatred for pirates and similar groups.

Especially after seeing so much trash with Luther, he felt utterly disgusted.

"The Arlong Pirates are a pirate crew based in Cocoyasi Village. Their captain, Arlong, was originally a member of the Sun Pirates. After Tiger, the captain of the Sun Pirates, was killed by Gion, Arlong and another member, Jinbe, were captured by the Navy and imprisoned in Impel Down. A few years ago, King Neptune of Fishman Island bailed them out of Impel Down for 1 million Berries."

"Recently, Jinbe became a Shichibukai and is now the guardian deity of Fishman Island. Arlong, on the other hand, left for the East Blue and is now stationed in Cocoyasi Village."

Upon hearing the information about Arlong, Nami clenched her fists tightly.

She knew perfectly well how Ah Long was now lording it over everyone in Cocoyasi Village.

Not only did she enslave the villagers, she was also forced to gather 1 million Berries, or else she would kill all the villagers.

Ah Long was the most despicable scumbag she had ever met!

"What do you mean by this? Is it that your Navy is afraid of Jinbe behind Arlong, or that even he can't handle it? After all, fish-men are several times stronger than humans."

Nami chuckled self-deprecatingly, her body preventing her from collapsing to the ground thanks to the railing.

Since the other party already knows everything, there is no need to hide it.

Upon hearing Nami's words, Uta's eyes narrowed slightly:

I really don't like the tone of your voice!

hum! ! !

Uta remained seated in the recliner, gently lifting her leg, and with a burst of wind, her foot shot towards Nami.

Nami stared in disbelief at the approaching storm kick.

It was so fast that her body couldn't even react.

"Shh!"

Lan's foot brushed past her ear, shaving off a few strands of her hair as it slashed towards the sea.

"boom!!!!"

A deafening roar erupted from behind Nami, followed by a mournful cry from a sea king.

Nami turned her head slowly and stiffly.

She swore that what she was seeing was the most shocking thing she had ever seen in her life.

Uta, sitting on his deck chair, kicked out a ravine that stretched for hundreds of meters, carving a trench in the sea.

Not only that, the storm kick landed precisely on the body of the sea king, which was a hundred meters away.

The nearly 100-meter-long sea king was easily sliced ​​in half by this storm foot, turning into two pieces that floated on the sea.

In an instant, the sea was stained with blood.

Chapter 306 Self-Introduction

"Fishmen are just slightly better trash than pirates. In the end, they're all just a bunch of trash."

Uta's disdainful voice rang in Nami's ears.

Nami had no idea what Uta was saying this time, and even thought it was absolutely true.

With a seemingly casual kick, the ocean was torn apart, and a hundred-meter-long sea monster was severed...

Compared to this monstrous strength, Arlong and his pirate crew really seem like trash.

"Gudu."

Nami swallowed hard.

She seemed to realize something very serious from Uta's words.

"Um... I'm really not a pirate. I was forced into this."

She turned around with a mournful face, only to meet Uta's utterly indifferent eyes.

Nami, realizing her small frame, thought she might actually be kicked to death, and her face showed immense tension.

“I don’t like liars,” Uta said calmly.

She really hates people who lie all the time, and it reminds her of that bastard Shanks.

"Ah... I'm so sorry!"

Upon hearing this, Nami immediately knelt down.

Without hesitation, she quickly recounted her true situation.

She was not born in Xirob Village, but grew up in Cocosia Village.

She was indeed an orphan, but she was adopted by Bellemere, a former navy officer, and had an older sister. Her family owned an orange grove.

She was forced into becoming a thief and a pirate; Arlong demanded that she do so, or he would kill the villagers.

She dared not tell the local navy because someone had informed on her, and she was arrested and thrown in front of Ah Long by the local navy.

She witnessed firsthand how the six-armed, octopus-like fish-man, wielding a stick with each arm, brutally beat the informant villager to death in the square of Cocoyasi Village.

Since then, everyone has been in despair and no one dares to inform on anyone.

"You're not with Colonel Rat and Ah Long, are you?"

In the end, Nami still asked a question with unease.

"They don't even deserve it?" Uta scoffed.

"So you have no connection with Jinbe or Fishman Island, right?" Nami asked cautiously.

She only learned from Uta that Ah Long had powerful backers.

"They're just a bunch of trash. Arlong grew up in Fishman Street on Fishman Island. How do you think Fishman Street was destroyed? How do you think Arlong's older brother Tiger died?"

Uta looked at Nami with a half-smile.

If the other person weren't going to be of some use in the future, she wouldn't bother saying all this.

"Ah... I remember you mentioned... Gion-neechan, Miss Uta?"

Nami asked more cautiously. She didn't know anyone named Gion, but she could tell that the other person had a good relationship with Uta.

“Gion-sensei is the world’s greatest swordsman; you should change your title.”

Kuina's voice drifted over from the side; she had come out to see what was happening because of Uta's gust of wind.

"Everything's fine here, Guina," Uta said calmly.

"it is good!"

Guina nodded, said nothing more, and went straight into the ship's cabin to train.

Her talent differs greatly from that of Uta and Ace; she can only make up for it with more effort.

"Ah...the world's greatest swordsman?!"

Upon hearing this title, Nami swallowed hard, her eyes filled with shock.

The title of world number one is far too distant for her.

"Heh, that woman is only the world's number one swordsman outside, she's not even as good as Luther!" Uta curled his lip.

She has a good relationship with Gion, but when it comes to whose sword is stronger, she would definitely vote for Luther.

"Luther...that name sounds familiar..."

Nami muttered to herself, feeling that she must have heard the name before.

"If you don't even know Luther, how dare you call yourself a pirate and a thief?"

Uta looked at Nami strangely, as if anyone who didn't know Luther was a nobody.

Nami blushed, feeling insulted.

She's just a minor thief; how could she possibly know about so many important people?

She had never heard of Jinbe before; she had previously thought that Arlong was already a world-renowned strongman.

Who knew that, according to Uta, Aaron might not even qualify as a minor karami.

"Of course I know Luther..."

Nami decided to keep up the act; she has her dignity too, you know.

"Yes..."

The moment the word "yes" left her lips, Nami suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, realizing something.

She suddenly turned to look at the highest point of the warship, where a Don Quixote family flag was flying.

"Gudu."

Nami swallowed hard again in fear, her face turning deathly pale, and she said in a trembling voice:
