Konoha, my skill upgrade experience remains unchanged

Uchiha Shinichi held the scabbard and swung it twice, which startled Nami who had been watching everything!

"It's good to move your hands and feet occasionally!"

"You're right, right, Nami?"

"Uh-huh!"

The beautiful girl with orange hair stared at the ordinary bamboo sword with wide eyes and nodded subconsciously in response!

"Okay, the crisis is over! It's time for me to go back to the cabin and rest!"

"Will you go to Koto Island this afternoon?"

Uchiha Shinda sent out an invitation!

"Okay! ...Wait!!!"

Nami responded casually, but then she reacted immediately!

Back to the cabin?

Die, die! ! !

The smart and beautiful girl with orange hair had cold sweat on her forehead! .

Chapter 158 The Gift of the Sea Comes with a Price

“Hohohoho! Hohohoho!…”

After the alarm was lifted, the dim corridor of the merchant ship was illuminated again, but a strange laugh was heard from it, attracting the passengers in the cabin to stick their heads out to check!

All I could see was a mechanical and stiff figure of a girl with orange hair and a T-shirt walking away!

Not far in front of the girl, Uchiha Shinji was walking forward with a subtle smile on his lips!

Everything that just happened on the deck made him feel happy!

…………

The sunshine at around 10 o'clock is just warm without being too hot. Coupled with the constant sea breeze on the deck, it is a great time to relax and stay healthy!

Normally, Nami would even choose this time to enjoy sunbathing!

But at this moment, she only felt that her whole body suddenly became hot, as if the heat bursting from her blood made sweat begin to seep out of her forehead!

"Oops! Oops!"

Nami was panicked!

There is a kind of criminal psychology, that is, after doing something bad, they will be particularly sensitive to certain keywords, which will cause flaws to be revealed in their behavior!

'He specifically mentioned 'cabin' at this moment. Did he find out that I did it?'

The words that slipped out of her mouth without her noticing suddenly left a huge hole in her perfect alibi!

'Don't panic! Don't panic!!'

'The more panicked you are at this moment, the more chaos will arise!'

"Nami, just like when there was a loophole in the previous treasure theft, calm down! Find a solution!"

She, who has always been smart, remained expressionless, but her mind was in turmoil. She tried to calm her emotions and find a way out amidst the chaos of thoughts!

"He shouldn't have noticed! We can't expose more loopholes at this time!"

Nami opened her eyes wide and looked into Uchiha Shin's eyes, as if they were having a normal face-to-face conversation, but she was taking the opportunity to carefully observe his expression!

"Hide it!"

This was the first thought that came to her mind, and it was also the method she used most often and had the most experience with!

As a habitual thief at sea, it’s just a small flaw, so just sprinkle some water on it!

As long as “Buddha” doesn’t know that he did it, then nothing will happen, right?

Judging from For's expression, he probably doesn't know that he did it... right?

Nami was nervous, but she forced herself to suppress her emotions. She fanned the air in front of her face with her hands, creating a refreshing breeze!

"Haha, it's getting hot so fast!"

She looked up at the sun above and sighed!

"Did you say we were going to Koto Island this afternoon?"

"Aren't you afraid that I'll take you to see Alrita?"

Then, Nami responded to Uchiha Shinda's question with a smile, pretending to be just surprised by the name of Koto Island!

Instead of keeping the conversation focused on the sensitive point of the cabin!

If you step on too many landmines, they will eventually explode!

If you want to hide the truth, you must first avoid topics that may cause risks!

As she wished, the topic of Uchiha Shinda was diverted!

"hehe!"

"In that case, maybe I'll just have to earn some bounty money. I heard she's offering a pretty high reward!"

"And there might be some unexpected gains!"

Uchiha Shinji turned his head to look at the dozens of pirate ships that were gradually sinking, then turned his gaze back, gestured with the bamboo sword in his hand, and issued an invitation again!

"How about it? Want to go shopping together?"

"Hehe! In that case, I will mercifully accompany you for a stroll, as a way of thanking you for saving everyone on this ship!"

Nami pretended to turn her head away proudly and breathed a sigh of relief!

I managed to conceal the abnormal reaction just now!

I was still caring too much, and because everything that happened today was too shocking, I exposed the flaw!

The "Song of the King of Wonderful Colors Seeking the Dharma" says: Because of love, sorrow arises; because of love, fear arises. If you are free from love, you will have neither sorrow nor fear!

Nami is not a time traveler, so naturally she doesn’t know this sentence!

But she knew that this was the closest she had ever been to rescuing the village of Kokosia (ageg) from the dragon since she set out to sea!

Just one sword!

As long as "For" gently swung out the sword just now!

What evil dragon empire!

What 20 million Baileys reward?

What kind of fishman has arm strength ten times stronger than humans!

These huge mountains pressing down on the village of Kokosia will disappear in an instant!

The revenge for Bellmère’s death will also have a result!

My seven years of hard work finally paid off!

Therefore, Nami's concern for Uchiha Shinda immediately reached its highest level!

At this moment, she secretly swore with everything she had, that she would do everything she could to make Uchiha Shin happily complete the journey of defeating the evil dragon, and she would never let this rare opportunity fly away because of her own reasons!

A bright future is just around the corner!

Nami-chan, it's time to fight!!!

The girl with orange hair and shawl secretly cheered herself up!

"By the way..."

Uchiha Shinji's voice immediately attracted Nami's attention. She pricked up her ears and listened, ready to respond at any time!

"By the way, I think I saw a suitcase on the deck of the pirate ship 'Crick' just now, and it's exactly the same as mine!"

"A coincidence or not?"

Drink it on the head!

Thunderbolt shock!

The vivid expression on Nami's face froze in an instant!

'What does he mean by asking this?'

The reaction time in her mind seemed to have suddenly lengthened 10 times, causing her thinking speed to slow down involuntarily!

'Did they find out that I did it?'

This was the next thought that popped into Nami's mind, and it also made her sense of time return to normal!

Compared to the vague way in which the question was addressed just now, the current question can be said to go straight to the point!

Should I continue to hide it? Or should I reveal everything?

Nami hesitated in her heart!

If I conceal it, there's a chance that 'Fol' won't find out anything, or he might get furious because of my deception!

If I tell him everything, he might forgive me, or he might stab me with a sword!

Although from the interactions over the past few days, "For" should be a gentle person, the future of Kokosia Village is on my shoulders. Can I take the risk?

Nami's mind is running wild!

What if "Fol" finds out and gets angry?

What if "Fol" refuses to help me?

What if you get rejected because your explanation is not good enough?

What if he becomes unhappy because I delay replying for too long?

The balance in her heart kept swaying back and forth. Because she cared too much, she couldn't make up her mind for a long time!

Opposite Nami, the smile on Uchiha Shinji's face became more and more meaningful, making Nami more nervous!

"Bell-mère! Nochigo! What should I do?"

She prayed in her heart, and Bellmère’s warm teachings from the past emerged in her mind, finally making her make up her mind!

"Xiao Nami, when you do something wrong, you must explain it to others! As long as you keep smiling and apologize sincerely, others will definitely forgive you!"

The cheers on the deck and the howls in the ocean seem to be far away in the horizon, yet they seem to echo in the heart, disrupting the thinking!

Nami closed her eyes slightly, remained silent for a moment, then opened them again, cutting off all distracting thoughts from her mind!

Die or die!

She was afraid of ghosts, wild beasts, pirates, and "Ford" getting angry, but she was even more afraid that she would let this unprecedented opportunity slip by because of her fear!

"Bellmaire, I will listen to you again. Your spirit in heaven must protect me!!!"

She looked into Uchiha Shin's clear eyes, gritted her teeth, opened her mouth, and tried to laugh out loud as usual!

Correct!

As long as you laugh out loud, apologize sincerely, and obtain his forgiveness, everything that follows will be smooth sailing!

“Ho…hohoho! Hohohoho!…”

Uchiha Shinda raised the corner of his mouth as he watched the expression on Nami's delicate little face change, and watched her sing a song "Huo Yuanjia"!

…………

"sit down!"

Uchiha Shinji pushed open the door, walked to the bed and sat down, ignoring the suitcase that disappeared under the bed, as if it was all expected!

Nami followed him in and glanced around the room nervously. She paused under the empty bed, then looked at a round stool in the room!

She gritted her teeth and did not pull a stool to sit on. Instead, she prostrated herself in front of Uchiha Shinji with a "thump" and cried loudly facing the floor!

"Fol! I did everything!"

"I accept whatever the punishment is!"

"But...but please do not change your plan to defeat the dragon!"

"He is just a despicable villain! He is doing evil in Kokosia Village!"
