Starting with two Kamui, they raised the flag of rebellion in One Piece.

The whale's tail is pointing.

Simply put, it's a sentence left on a treasure map.

The treasure is buried in the southern hills; the whale faces west, its tail—

As a crucial marker, the latter part of this sentence is illegible, and it is no longer possible to decipher what it says. However, there is no doubt that this sentence indicates the location of the target.

Edrag and his team first located the whale's landmark, and then followed the eastward direction of its tail to find Unan's castle.

However, Nami, who had already realized that the castle was just a trap, was not foolish enough to continue digging through the ruins.

After two days of deep thought and a tiny hint from Li Mingyuan that she happened to pass by, she finally figured out the truth.

In fact, the whale's tail is just a simple identification trap.

Although the whale's tail generally points eastward, and there is indeed a castle in that direction, if someone really observes the whale closely, they will find that part of the whale's tail fin is folded and does not point in the same direction as the rest of the tail.

The whale's tail is pointing east.

The whale's tail fin points towards this vertical cliff!

Considering that the castle is located despite the incorrect direction, Nami speculates that the treasure map might not have had that part of the writing in the first place, and it was just a deliberate deception from the beginning, with no intention of letting anyone find the treasure location.

Nami herself was completely unprepared for such a clever trick to mislead people. In order to find the real treasure location, she had been racking her brains for the past two days, and she even had some insomnia.

It's hard to imagine that Ace and his careless pirates could uncover the truth and find this place that doesn't seem like a place where humans could hide treasure.

For a moment, Nami looked at Ace in front of her and found it hard to accept.

However, it was clear that Nami was unaware of this at the time, and it was premature for her to find it difficult to accept.

What she found even harder to accept was yet to come.

"Tail? What tail?"

"So, what other secrets does the treasure map hold?"

Upon hearing Nami's question, Ace scratched his cheek, a hint of confusion on his face. "These past two days, since the treasure map has been completely useless, we've almost forgotten about it."

"However, considering that the gold hasn't been found yet, we can't just turn back now. I also made an agreement with your captain... So, if we really can't find any clues, I thought I'd look at the higher parts of the island to see if there are any other buildings on the island."

"I just used fire to propel myself to this cliff, and here I am, seeing these houses!"

At this moment, Ace said excitedly, "Normally, no one should live in a place like this, right? It's hidden so well. I think this is very likely the location of Unan's treasure."

"What do you think, Miss Navigator?!"

Seeing the barely suppressed excitement on Ace's face, Nami's pupils dilated in shock, and her mouth gaped open.

I could hardly believe what I had just heard.

"Wait a minute, so you mean you just happened to want to look up from a high place, and that's how you ended up here, is that what you mean?"

Nami's legs trembled, and her voice shook as she said, "What treasure map deciphering, what whale tail direction—you didn't even think of that?"

"Uh, is there a problem?"

Ace was a little confused.

"This is a huge problem!"

In an instant, Nami's expression turned fierce as she glared at Ace and said, "What? That's it? You found this cliff like that? What about all my efforts these past few days? What about my sleepless nights?"

"Give me back all the hard work I've put in all this time, you bunch of idiots with only guts!!"

After saying that, Nami felt the strength that had sustained her all the way suddenly disappear. She knelt down helplessly, her head drooping, her expression blank.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered climbing the mountain so much."

"I'm so tired, I can't move an inch."

Nami said weakly, "What was the point of all this trouble to come all this way..."

Gold, lovely gold, dazzling gold.

She was so close to having it all to herself!

Seeing Nami's dejected expression, Ace and the Spade Pirates exchanged bewildered glances, unsure of what they had done to offend the navigator, or whether they should go over to comfort her.

Finally, it was Ace who walked over to Nami with a headache and tentatively said, "There's no need to be so discouraged, is there? Weren't we here on the same cliff together?"

"It's not like we're going to kick you out just because we found it. We can just split the gold equally, can't we?"

Ace chuckled and said, "It's safer to explore together since we don't know if there are any traps in the house."

As he spoke, Ace reached out his hand to Nami, wanting to kindly help her up.

Surprisingly, Nami didn't even glance at Ace's actions.

"You wouldn't understand. This is the last thing I wanted to see: working with pirates."

Nami muttered under her breath, looking annoyed, "I'd rather sunbathe with the captain than do this."

Ace, who had not yet mastered Observation Haki, couldn't even hear what Nami was muttering.

Ace was then surprised to see that Nami, who had seemed to have no strength left, gritted her teeth, supported her trembling body, and stood up on her own again.

"I don't need your help; I can stand up on my own."

Nami snorted and looked at Ace, her expression indifferent. "Since we arrived here at the same time, then do whatever you want."

"Anyway, the two of us are no match for you, so even if you don't give us anything, we won't dare to complain."

After saying that, Nami turned around and walked towards Karina, who was still lying on the ground.

After helping Karina to sit down on a rock, Nami sat down next to Karina and began to rest.

It has to be said that although Ace's appearance upset Nami quite a bit, he also unexpectedly accomplished what Karina had failed to do earlier, stopping Nami, who was blinded by the gold, from continuing her exploration after recovering her strength.

Looking at Nami beside her, Karina secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side of the cliff, Ace, who was also watching Nami's figure, rubbed his temples.

"We've been partners at the banquet before, so I thought we'd become somewhat familiar with each other, but I didn't expect them to be so cold towards each other."

"Although Li Mingyuan is a bounty hunter, he strangely doesn't have any ill feelings towards us. On the contrary, Miss Navigator isn't a bounty hunter, yet she dislikes us so much."
