Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

"Brothers! This must be God's reward for our first fortune since arriving on the Grand Line!"

"Hahaha! Let's go! Get on their ship! Search their ship and see how much treasure they have! And take all the food and drink too!"

......

"Hey! Kid, you're blocking our way!"

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance. As long as you obediently stay out of the way, I won't kill you, and I'll even keep the boat for you. Isn't that generous enough?"

......

"Hmph! What a stubborn, hopeless brat! Since you insist on blocking our way, don't blame us for being impolite!"

Bang bang bang!

Bang bang bang!

......

Wukong clapped his hands, turned around, and behind him were a mountain of pirates with bruised and swollen faces.

"Hehe! Nami, it's all done!"

He looked at Nami standing behind him with a grin.

"Well done, Wukong!"

Nami clapped her hands with a smile, then used the rope she had already taken out to tie up the group of pirates who had been easily defeated by Goku.

They were enjoying their meal when they unexpectedly encountered a group of pirates who had just entered the Grand Line.

Moreover, the other side had their eyes on them, wanting to plunder their ship's supplies and treasures.

This was intolerable. We immediately dispatched a 12-year-old child to deceive the enemy with his innocent appearance and strike swiftly when the enemy made their move, thus securing victory in one fell swoop!

"Hey! You're their captain, right? How much is your bounty?"

After tying up the pirate leader, a middle-aged man with blond hair, Nami leaned down and looked at him with a smile, asking him a question.

"A bounty?"

The middle-aged man with yellow hair, his face bruised and swollen, and looking dejected, raised his head, paused for a few seconds, and then shook his head.

"I...I don't know, I don't think so."

"No??" This answer stumped Nami.

You, a pirate who managed to come to the Grand Line, are telling me you have no bounty?

She didn't suspect that the other party was deliberately hiding it, because pirates never concealed their bounties; on the contrary, they were keen to spread the word, boasting about how much bounty they had, how powerful they were, and so on.

"Yes, yes, I, I..."

The middle-aged man with blond hair stammered, as if he wanted to say something, but hesitated and didn't say it.

At that moment, his bound brothers suddenly burst into tears.

"Waaaaah! Boss! Are we going to die here?!"

"Boss! I don't want to die here! My wife and kids are waiting for me to come back, waaaaah!"

His eight brothers, all of whom looked to be at least in their thirties or forties, were now all crying their eyes out, leaving Goku and Nami completely bewildered.

Upon hearing his brothers' cries, the middle-aged man with blond hair could no longer hold back; his eyes reddened, and a few hot tears fell.

Bang! !

He struggled to straighten his body, raising his upper body off the ground, and then slammed it down heavily on Nami and Goku.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Nami was startled, her eyes filled with confusion.

"We're sorry! We were in the wrong first! We shouldn't have tried to take your things!"

The middle-aged man with blond hair remained in the kowtowing position, shouting with tears streaming down his face.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault! If you're going to kill someone, just kill me! Please spare my brothers! They all have families, they can't die here! Waaaaah!!"

"Waaaaah! Boss!! What are you saying! We can't die, and you can't die either! Your wife is still waiting for you at home!" His eight brothers cried even louder.

Goku blinked and exchanged a glance with Nami, both seeing a look of utter bewilderment in each other's eyes.

"Hey, hey, hey, who said we were going to kill you? Can you stop talking nonsense?"

Two seconds later, Nami rubbed her temples and said irritably.

She herself despises pirates who enjoy killing, so when she and Goku started catching pirates, she told Goku that unless absolutely necessary, they should not kill their enemies, otherwise they would be no different from pirates.

So far, the only person they've killed is Kennard, who was killed by his own bomb—that's only because it was a last resort.

They certainly wouldn't kill the pirates who were easily dealt with by Goku.

As for how to handle it, to be honest, they hadn't figured it out yet. After all, the Grand Line was an unfamiliar place, and they didn't know where the Navy's branches were, nor could they take this group of people around looking for the Navy.

So at most, they can only take away the leaders with bounties, while their subordinates will most likely have to let them go.

But now, it seems the other leader has no bounty, so taking him away would be a thankless task, so they will probably release him as well.

"You...you're not going to kill us?"

The middle-aged man with blond hair, who was sobbing, looked up instantly upon hearing this, and a wrinkled face covered in tears and snot bubbles came into view of Goku and Nami.

"Are you guys really pirates?"

Nami took a step back in disgust; she had never seen a pirate behave so poorly.

They've all become pirates; even if they're not fearless of death, they should at least have a stronger will than ordinary people. She'd never seen anyone cry like this before.

The middle-aged man with blond hair sniffled, unable to wipe the filth off his face because his hands were tied behind his back.

"Yes, we are pirates, but we've only been pirates for half a month."

He said this while sniffling.

"My brothers and I are childhood friends. When we were young, we always dreamed of going to sea and becoming pirates, but we never had the chance."

"Until two weeks ago, we unexpectedly obtained a treasure left behind by pirates. That's when we made up our minds to become pirates while we still have the energy, travel around the world, and realize our childhood dream."

"..."

Through his explanation, Wukong and his companions learned that these people had previously been farmers from a village in the South China Sea, and that they had all started families and established careers.

If things had gone according to plan, they would have lived in their hometown forever until they died of old age.

But the unexpected discovery of pirate treasure awakened their childhood dreams. This group of middle-aged men, with an average age of around forty, decided to set sail, intending to become pirates and travel the world before returning home to spend their later years with their wives and children.

They were also very lucky. They were not pursued by the Navy, nor were they attacked by other pirates. They didn't even encounter bad weather. Relying on the nautical chart in the pirate treasure, they successfully reached the Grand Line.

After hearing his story, Nami was filled with mixed emotions.

Why, why do these people dream of becoming pirates?

What's so great about One Piece that it's worth it for middle-aged people like you, with wives and children, to heartlessly abandon your families?

She asked the question, and the answer she received was:

"We want to see the world. We don't want to spend our whole lives in our little place. If we don't become pirates, we'll never have the chance to realize this dream."

Nami crossed her arms and sneered, "Hmph! That's easy for you to say. You pirate hunters also have a chance, don't you? You become pirates mostly because you enjoy plundering others, right? Just like before!"

The middle-aged man with blond hair shook his head like a rattle-drum.

"Pirate hunters? We don't have that ability. We want to rob you because we've used up all the supplies we brought, and we don't have much money left."

"I, I swear! We really didn't steal from anyone before. You, you were actually the first..."

The middle-aged man with blond hair gradually lowered his voice and lowered his head, not daring to look at Nami and Goku.

Then, as if remembering something, he suddenly looked up and said urgently, "But! We really didn't intend to take everything from you! We'll leave you some."

"And we didn't intend to kill you! Really! We said and did those things before just to scare you by pretending to be pirates."

They were just a group of farmers who had lived honestly in their hometown for decades, and had never committed robbery or murder.

After going to sea to become a pirate, I never did these things because I had enough supplies and was lucky.

It wasn't until they arrived at the Grand Line, due to a lack of supplies, that they first conceived the idea of ​​plundering others.

To put it bluntly, they are just a group of ordinary people who wear the skin of pirates but have no pirate spirit at all.

Of course, this refers to the present. If they succeed in this robbery and then plunder others again due to a lack of supplies, they will eventually become no different from real pirates.
