The waves lapped gently on the beach, and the afterglow of the setting sun spread on the sea in Cocoa West Village.
The sea breeze blew up a whirlwind, carrying the fallen leaves high into the sky, and then fell on a small hillside with the wind.
It is filled with flowers and surrounded by lush trees.
Closer to the hillside, there are one or two orange trees planted with a few tumbledown oranges on them.
This is Cocoa West Village, a remote corner, a wooden cross, where Nami and Noqigao's adoptive mother Bell-mère is buried.
Not far away, there are two figures. Under the setting sun, their shadows are intertwined and elongated.
She is a girl with a red hairband on her head, short light blue hair, and a yellow vest.
The tattoos on her shoulders and healthy wheat-colored skin looked even more attractive under the afterglow of the setting sun. .
She gently held the arm of the boy wearing the straw hat and gently rested her head on the boy wearing the straw hat's shoulder.
The two of them sat on a hillside, leaning against each other, watching the ebb and flow of the coast.
"Are you really not going to go to sea with me all the time?"
"No, unlike Nami, I can draw sea charts and can help you."
"I'll stay here and help you keep an eye on the Conome Islands."
"I'm waiting for you to come back. You will come back, right? Luffy." Noqigao's voice was trembling, not sure whether it was because of the pain caused by last night's madness or because of inner uneasiness.
"I want you to go to sea with me more, Nuo Qigao." Luffy sniffed Nuo Qigao's short hair.
The sea breeze carrying the scent of orange came again, blowing their hair away.
I don't know if it's the sea breeze that smells like orange, or the hair fragrance of Nozhiko that smells like orange.
"Does Nami know? Nokigao, what is your identity?" Luffy put his hand on Nokigao's shoulder and pulled her closer.
"No, I didn't tell her."
"Nami is already in pain, facing the dragon that killed Bell-mère's mother day and night."
"Did you know that at such a young age, Nami was forced to join the Dragon Pirates and had to endure the confusion of other villagers?"
"The enemy is clearly right in front of you, but you can't take revenge."
"And I'm afraid, I'm afraid Nami hates me."
"At the beginning, the Kingdom of Oiket had a rebellion in the country and was attacked by a large number of pirates."
"I was hiding among civilians and escaping. As a result, a large number of civilians suffered."
"Sometimes, I think, if I hadn't hid among the civilians, maybe they wouldn't have died, and Nami's biological parents wouldn't have died either."
"At that time, Nami was still a little baby. I picked her up from a pile of civilians, and then we were adopted by Ermel's mother."
"I'm scared, Nami hates me."
"I have no family except Nami."
Nuo Qigao's trembling voice and her body shaking due to uneasiness made people feel distressed.
"No, Noqigao, now you still have me. From today on, you are my woman and I am your family." Luffy said to Noqigao gently.
"It's just that I didn't expect that Nuoqi Gaoyou is actually the last royal family of the Ouikot Kingdom and the only remaining princess in the kingdom."
"That is a thing of the past. Besides, after the war, the Kingdom of Oykot had no name as a kingdom."
"I have done nothing for that country, and I have no ability to do anything."
"Now, I am very happy to have you and Nami."
Nuo Qigao clung to Luffy infatuatedly, not caring about her identity.
"That's your home country, isn't it? I heard that the civilians in that country are living a very bad life now."
"I'm just a famous, down-and-out princess. Without your arrival, Luffy, I would still be under the rule of the Dragon Pirates, living in a panic." Nokigao said.
"Don't you want to go back to your country? Don't you want to do something for your motherland?" Luffy asked Nokigao.
"I guess, but what can I do?"
"Actually, I begged Bell-mère's mother to teach me Marine shooting skills. Hehe, don't look at me like this, my shooting ability is very strong."
"Mother Bell-mère used to praise me and say I could become a sailor."
"So what? The day the saw dragon came, Bell-mère's mother died. How many times have I wanted to kill the saw dragon, but I know I can't do it."
Luffy held Nuo Qigao's cold hand tightly.
"You couldn't do it before, but you can do it now!"
"Because I'm here! I, Luffy, am the man who wants to be the Pirate King!"
"Since you plan to stay here, and you are the only remaining royal family in the Ouikot Kingdom."
"Then let me help you revive the Oykot Kingdom!"
When Luffy shouted these words, the sea breeze blurred Nokigao's eyes.
At this moment, Nuo Qigao could no longer look away from this young man.
Nuo Qigao looked at the boy wearing a straw hat next to him.
The setting sun shone on him.
He is that little sun!
The legendary Nikka!
At this moment, Noqigao's heart was stolen by this boy.
This little villain not only took her body, but also stole her heart.
In fact, committing to him was not just the promise made with him to rescue Nami.
And the scene when he fell from the sky and defeated the saw dragon touched her heart.
It also touched the hearts of all the girls in the Conome Islands.
Who doesn't hope that a prince charming can descend from the sky and save them from the dragon's castle in the fairy tale?
But the reality is so cruel.
Despair, no hope for the future.
They can only pray to the sun.
Pray that the sun will shine through the darkness.
And at that moment.
Luffy, shows up.
Although he is not riding a white horse.
But it fell from the sky.
It shattered the nightmare that had enveloped them for eight years.
That day, all the girls in the Conome Islands.
A dream come true.
That day, all the girls in the Conome Islands.
My body and mind were stolen by this boy.
