A few days later, on a small island near Fengrun Island, Luo Qing was enjoying the corrupt (harmonious) life he dreamed of.
Since he was seriously injured in the previous battle with Kizaru, he enjoyed the meticulous care of Nami and others after drifting to this island with difficulty.
However, it was not without unexpected gains. Seeing and hearing Haki unexpectedly awakened the seed, saving him a natural devil fruit.
Fortunately, there are a few small bags of gold coins in the internal space of Luo Qing's Infinity Glove for emergency use, otherwise Nami might go back to her old business.
Despite this, Nami, who lost her ship and treasure, has also lost the smile on her face in the past few days and has become increasingly depressed...
"Girl, give me a smile~"
"hehe... "
Luo Qing, who was covered in bandages, lowered his head and ate the turkey and vegetable porridge cooked by Xiao Xueqiu himself and fed by Nami herself, and said helplessly:
"I told you a long time ago that it's safest to leave me here, but you won't listen."
What responded to him was Nami's big, hygienic eyes.
To be honest, she regretted it now. If all the treasures were placed in Luo Qing's portable space, this problem would definitely not occur.
Of course, it's not absolute. If Luo Qing is killed one day, it will be the same.
But from the current point of view, it seems that it is safer to leave him there.
"Get well quickly, and then write me an IOU for 300 million beli, do you hear me?"
Luo Qing almost spit out the porridge in his mouth!
"Why am I the one hitting? I am also a victim, okay!"
"Who caused the big explosion at the end?"
"..." Luo Qing.
Luo Qing was helpless, what else could he say when faced with such a little money-lover who loved money as much as his life
"Your relationship is really good~"
At this time, Robin walked in and said with a smile on his face.
"That's not good!" X2
Nami and Luo Qing, whose faces flashed red, said in unison, and then glared at each other.
Robin's smile became even more ambiguous, but now was not the time to discuss such things.
"I think the captain should take a look at this."
As he spoke, Robin used his powers to grow two hands on Luo Qing, who was still unable to move, and then helped him lift the latest newspaper that arrived.
Luo Qing saw what Robin wanted him to see at a glance.
Then he immediately said with disdain: "The navy is always like this, demonizing the enemy and making itself sacred and righteous!"
"After my last trick, I don't believe it if you say that Kizaru's shit didn't happen!"
Luo Qing was very confident. If Kizaru was not seriously injured, he would not turn into light and escape immediately, but would wait there to take Luo Qing and him back to the navy headquarters.
Coupled with the Navy's very familiar practice of concealing the truth, he was even more certain that Kizaru's injuries were definitely serious!
As for the bounty of 350 million Berry, well, it’s just so-so.
If the navy dares to reveal Kizaru's injuries, he will definitely offer more than this reward!
After Luo Qing finished complaining, Robin and others were in a daze. It was really hard to imagine that their captain could actually fight Kizaru with both sides injured.
That is one of the three generals of the navy who represents the navy's 'highest combat power'!
Kizaru, who possesses the Shining Fruit, is the most difficult to be injured among the three generals. Even if he is defeated, there is no problem in returning whole body, but in the hands of their captain, he cannot even escape!
In the end, if it wasn't for saving them, Kizaru might have really fallen here!
That is the big news that shocked the whole world!
Thinking of this, both Robin, who wanted to seek asylum and the historical text, and Little Snowball, who had the Four Emperors as his enemies, all developed an emotion called 'trust' towards Luo Qing!
They finally believed that their captain was not just a big talker, but actually fulfilled every promise he made!
Conquering the world...maybe more than just words!
"Where are Kerby and Little Snowball?"
Under Nami's "reluctant" feeding, Luo Qing finally finished his meal.
"Kerby went to practice on his own and said he wanted to share the burden for his teacher. He seemed a little irritated."
"Xiao Xueqiu went to buy ingredients after cooking. He said he would be back later."
Luo Qing nodded. It seemed that there was a reason why Kebi could become a strong person in the future. At least deep down in his heart, he still longed to become stronger.
Being able to block Akainu's attack and shout out what is on his mind is a courage that no ordinary person can achieve. It's no wonder that the red-haired man saved his life for this.
Maybe many people hate Kebi because of his timidity and cowardice. Even the original Luo Qing disliked this character and couldn't understand why the old thief Oda would give him so many scenes.
But maybe the old thief Oda just wants to show everyone that even the most timid and cowardly people can have real courage.
Just like no matter how timid a parent is, they can still stand up and fight against gangsters for the safety of their children. They may die because of this, but they can leave the hope of life to their children.
Luo Qing suddenly looked forward to the day when Kebi completed his transformation.
"By the way, is the Chinese New Year coming soon?"
"New Year? It's already December, and in less than a month it will be the year 1519 of the Haiyuan calendar."
Luo Qing doesn't remember whether there is a term for New Year's Eve in the pirate world, but there must be no such thing, otherwise he would not have any impression at all.
So he smiled and said: "In my hometown, every time the old year turns to the new year, the whole family will get together..."
"Let's all have reunion dinner together, make dumplings, watch 'shows' together, drink together, and play mahjong together..."
Luo Qing tried his best to explain some explainable things to Nami and Robin. This kind of family happiness made them yearn for it, but what followed was lonely silence.
Nami and Robin are both people who have experienced various hardships since they were young, and have seen the darkness and pain of the world. This kind of family relationship is what they lack and yearn for the most.
"So, let's celebrate the New Year together while I'm recovering from my injuries."
"We all lack family in this world, and it seems that the only thing that can comfort each other is each other..."
Luo Qing was slightly lost in thought. Although his experiences in the world of pirates were colorful and it was a place he could only dream about in his dreams, there are some things that can only be cherished if they are lost.
If he was given another chance to choose, maybe he would buy the Infinity Gauntlet and come here!
But maybe before coming here, he would go home and have a reunion dinner with his parents, and say sorry to them as a son.
After a period of complicated silence, Nami and Robin both nodded at some point.
Family
It’s such a distant and unfamiliar statement...
But...it's pretty good!
