Chapter 28: The weather is great! The road paved for my brother!

Over the next few days, Kaya, beloved by all in the village, bid her farewells from one house to another. Merry was on the verge of completing the Golden Merry, the dream ship he had envisioned since childhood.When he thought that Miss Kaya was going to sail on the sea on the ship of his dreams, Merry felt that his shipbuilding skills had become much stronger.

Unbeknownst to Merry, Ace had applied the realm of understanding on him. After all, Merry's own shipbuilding talent could only be said to be average. In the original book, Merry finally became dilapidated because of this. Ace really likes this ship that gives birth to ship spirits, and naturally hopes that Merry can build it more perfectly.

Meanwhile, Nami had been relentlessly pestering Ace. "Hey, Captain, I'm your first crew member, so you can't be partial. Find me a Devil Fruit to make me stronger. Only when I become stronger can I help you," Nami hugged Ace's arm and said coquettishly. But her eyes had changed into the shape of Beli.

"Are you looking for Devil Fruit to strengthen yourself or just sell it for money?" Ace looked at Nami, whose eyes had turned into the shape of Beli, and said angrily.

"What! You don't trust your first crew member at all!" Nami protested loudly, her voice echoing with indignation.

"Hehehe." Kaya on the side laughed softly, with a look of satisfaction on her pretty face.

She has been frail and sick since she was a child and could only recuperate in her room. She has never had friends of the same age. Now her physical problems have been solved, and she has friends, and all of this was brought about by Ace. Kaya held her chin up, looked at Ace's side face quietly, and then smiled.

"Snapped!" "Okay, Nami!" Ace, who was afraid of being pestered by Nami, held down Nami's face and rubbed Nami's pretty face into a ball.

"Of course, I have prepared Devil Fruit for you, but the Devil Fruit that is most suitable for you is in the Grand Line. I will take you to get it when the time comes," Ace looked at Nami whose face was caught by him and smiled.

"Puff!" Nami pulled her pretty face away from Ace's hand and pouted. "What's wrong with the Grand Line? You have no sincerity at all," Nami muttered.

"Oh? That Devil Fruit is more precious than Kaya's healing fruit. It's a super powerful devil fruit worth at least 3 billion beli," Ace looked at Nami's pouty face, leaned into Nami's ear, and chuckled.

"30!" "30.000!" "3 billion Beli!!!" Nami stood frozen, as if struck by lightning. Only this sentence echoed in her head.

"You, you won't lie to me, will you?!" After a while, Nami finally woke up a little and looked at Ace blankly.

"Have you ever seen anything I said not come true?" Ace chuckled. After hearing this, Nami thought about it carefully. Since meeting Ace, every word he said has come true. Even things like allowing Kaya, who has been frail and sick since childhood, to sail on the sea have been accomplished. Well, that means…

"Do you really want to give me the 3 billion Beli Devil Fruit?" Nami felt her heart tremble.

"Of course, you are my navigator, Nami." Upon hearing this, Ace rubbed Nami's short orange hair and laughed.

"That's great, Nami," Kaya also chuckled.

"But is that Devil Fruit really in the Grand Line?" Nami's little face was a little tangled.

"Yes, now we also need to give you some fighting ability. Come with me," Ace deliberately didn't mention anything about Arlong and his group, but said this instead. After that, Ace pulled Nami and walked out. And Kaya also followed Ace step by step, looking closely at Ace's back. The ship's doctor, of course, must stay close to the captain. Kaya smiled sweetly.

"Pirates! Pirates are coming!" A long-nosed man shouted loudly at the entrance of the village. The village suddenly became chaotic.

"Usopp! You bastard, if you talk nonsense again, I will beat you to death!" When they found out that this was a lie, the people in the village suddenly started to curse.

"Hahaha!" Usopp didn't care about this and ran away amidst the yells of curses from the villagers.

"Boom!" At this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out, grabbed Usopp's neck collar, and pulled him over.

"Hey, you must be Usopp," Ace looked at Usopp and smiled lightly.

"You, you are…?!" Usopp stammered.

"My name is Ace, and I am a pirate," Ace showed a smile, but this smile seemed so terrifying to Usopp.

"pir- pirate?! Everyone! The pirates are coming! Run!" Usopp was so frightened that his whole body began to tremble, but he mustered his last breath and shouted in the direction of the village. Usopp was responded with loud curses from everyone in the village. The so-called wolf is coming. No one believes what Usopp said today. Usopp suddenly looked desperate when he heard the village calling him a liar.

"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of pirate who wants to steal things. By the way, this is Kaya, my ship's doctor, and this is Nami, my navigator," When Ace heard Usopp's shout, he had some appreciation on his face. A coward like Usopp, who immediately notified the villagers to run away when encountering the pirate he fears most, is worthy of being my brother's future sniper on the ship.

"K-Kaya?! You, you are the eldest lady in that villa?! Are you a pirate?! I heard that your body…" Usopp looked at Kaya in disbelief.

"Yes, my body has been cured by Ace," Kaya covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Okay, Usopp, right? Your dad is Yasopp, right?" Ace looked at Usopp and smiled.

"You, you know my dad?!" Usopp suddenly became excited.

"Well, I don't know him, but my brother Luffy was once taken care of by him," Ace smiled.

"Then, are you looking for me?" Usopp's fear eased slightly when he heard that he was an acquaintance of his father.

"Make a weather stick for me. By the way, I can repay your father for taking care of my brother Luffy," Upon hearing this, Ace's right hand surged with strange fluctuations, slowly covering Usopp. In addition to what Ace said, there is another point. Luffy's crew has become stronger, which means that his own power has become stronger.

The realm of understanding!

Finally, in Nami's surprised eyes, a weather rod that was much more powerful than the original work at the same time was created by Usopp.

"My, my sniper ability…" Usopp looked at Ace's back, looking at his hands in disbelief. Although it was only a few hours, he felt that his sniping ability had more than doubled.

"Monkey D. Luffy, the person who was taken care of by my father? Ace's younger brother," Usopp muttered, recalling what Ace said after he left.
