Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

boom!

Several heavy objects fell behind him, accompanied by screams.

Otrulk III turned his head in confusion.

The burly guards who had captured Sabo were all knocked to the ground, lying scattered around them, their eyes rolling back as they lost consciousness.

A black-haired boy carrying a long sword, wearing a white training uniform and wooden clogs stood in front of Sabo.

"Who are you? What have you done?"

Otruuk III couldn't help but take a step back.

Sabo, his face streaked with tears, stared blankly at Ron, who had suddenly appeared before him.

Ron bent down, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up, then smiled at the stunned Otruck III:

"The son of a nobleman should fetch a good price."

After saying that, he lightly stepped forward, grabbed Sabo, who was about the same size as him, and ran off into the distance, disappearing at the end of the street in the blink of an eye.

By this time...

It was only then that Otruuk III realized what was happening.

Isn't this... kidnapping?!

What audacious kidnapper! He actually abducted his son right in front of him!

Otruc III trembled with rage, not because Sabo had been kidnapped, but because his son's actions had so severely damaged his noble reputation.

Ron brought Sabo to the outskirts of the city.

As soon as he put Sabo down, Sabo crawled to the side and started vomiting.

Kuina walked over, looked at Sabo curiously, and asked, "Who is he?"

“I kidnapped the son of a nobleman.”

Ron chuckled.

Kuina was stunned upon hearing this: "Huh?!"

After vomiting, Sabo finally recovered, his face still showing signs of fear, and said:

"I almost thought I was going to die..."

He got up and looked at Ron gratefully, saying, "Although I don't know who you are, thank you anyway for helping me escape. My name is Sabo, and I will never forget this kindness."

He was still quite clever; he could tell that Ron was helping him.

Guina became even more confused upon hearing his words.

He kidnapped you, and you're thanking him?

Is this what nobility is all about?

"No need to thank me. But you, you must still have things to do."

Ron reminded him.

Sabo suddenly woke up, turned his head and looked over, seeing the firelight in the sky. His expression became extremely worried.

"Luffy, Ace..."

Sabo quickly thanked Ron and then immediately ran over there.

"Let's go too."

Ron said to Guina.

Guina nodded.

Ron led Kuina in a different direction from Sabo.

Although Ron knew that Ace and Luffy were facing a major crisis, he had no intention of helping them.

You can't die anyway.

Helping Sabo was just a coincidence; I simply wanted to change the plot a bit and see what would happen.

"Where are we going if we keep walking in this direction?"

"Guina asked."

"Let's go check out the windmill town."

Ron said.

That's the protagonist's hometown.

He planned to go there and see if he could trigger the sign-in conditions again.

"By the way, Ron, have you been to this island before? You seem quite familiar with it."

"Guina asked curiously."

"Forehead……"

Ron couldn't very well tell her that he had a map in his mind.

When the two arrived in Windmill Town, it started to rain.

The flames burning fiercely in the sky over there were gradually extinguished by the rain, signifying that everything that had happened there was coming to an end.

Kuina knew nothing, but Ron knew perfectly well.

The antagonism between nobles and commoners, the injustice and trampling of life, and the mixture of justice and evil have created this country that appears beautiful and bright on the surface, but is actually filthy and disgusting on the inside.

This country is a microcosm of the entire pirate world.

Even a dragon cannot change this country now.

"Is this Windmill Town?"

Kuina saw several huge windmills ahead.

Ron nodded, and just as he was about to say something, a system notification sounded in his mind.

[Beep, host location detected - Windmill Town, meets check-in requirements, check-in now?]

Ron's eyes lit up with joy.

"Sign in."

Sign-in successful. Sign-in reward: Health +10.

Receive the sign-in reward: a permanent buff – The True Meaning of Thousands of Trials and Trials.

Permanent buff?

Ron was taken aback.

He didn't even have time to study it in detail.

The rain suddenly intensified.

He had no choice but to quickly take Guina to find shelter from the rain.

28. Kuina's First Signs of Talent (2/5)

The two found a shop with its lights on in Windmill Town; it was a tavern.

Ron led Guina inside.

"Welcome... Hmm? Two little devils? Hurry up, hurry up, we don't do business with children."

The shop assistant's expression changed very quickly.

Ron simply took out a few gold coins from his pocket and tossed them to him:

"We'll stay here for the night."

After confirming that the gold coins were genuine, the shop assistant's expression changed again, and a smile appeared on his face:

"If it's just for one night, then it's fine."

Ron led Guina to a table in the corner of the tavern and sat her down.

A short while later, the waiter brought over some more food and juice.

"Ron, where did you get those gold coins?"

Kuina looked at him and asked curiously.

She had never seen any gold coins on Ron, and there shouldn't have been anywhere to put them in his thin white training clothes... Where did he get them from?

"Could it be theft..."

"How can it be."

"Where did it come from?"

"It's definitely mine, I just kept it somewhere you couldn't see it before."

Ron took a sip of juice.
