The Great Voyage: I Became Nami's Brother at the Start

boom--

In just one afternoon, they blasted through the red earth continent!

Norton felt that this was something to be proud of.

Splash...

The seawater on both sides was connected immediately after the blast.

Norton turned around and looked at the long tunnel, which resembled the belly of a giant python, dark and cold, and looked a little creepy.

"I'll find some more light sources to put in the walls later!" With that thought, Norton mentally contacted his beloved wife, activated the ring's function, and teleported back to the Kingdom of Oycot.

"Ugh... Go take a shower, you smell like smoke..." Bonnie pushed Norton away as soon as she returned, looking disgusted.

Norton's body instantly transformed into that of a child.

"All right……"

Norton looked at himself, turned around with a bitter face, and ran towards the bathroom with his short legs.

Why do I turn into a child when I take a bath?

It's all because of that shower gel Norton gave us!

Everyone knows the principle that people with large social status use more resources than people with small social status, and in reality, they are basically the same.

But! One pump of shower gel is enough for two showers!

Adults, once you press the shower gel and use the foam, there's basically not much left.

Bonnie is a thrifty and practical woman, so every time the topic of taking a bath comes up, she makes sure to pat people down like little kids before they go...

Well... what a virtuous and good wife...

Norton swam in the bathtub, thinking to himself, "At least I've shrunk, so I can still swim in the bathtub..."

The king's bath is very large; it's not very interesting for adults to swim around in it.

But when you become a child, swimming is a completely different experience.

……

The Holy Land, New Mary Geoise.

Although it's called New Mary Geoise, construction here is actually still incomplete.

The five elders gathered in the conference room, each with a worried expression.

The navy's report arrived: the last stronghold in the East China Sea had been eliminated, as expected.

Since the Kingdom of Oycott aims to unify the East Sea, how could it allow a thorn in its side to remain, causing it trouble?

"I'll take some men to take a look. We can't stay passive like this forever." A cold glint flashed in the bald old man's eyes.

"So what if you go? Can you even enter the mist?" The Mediterranean old man raised his eyelids slightly.

"Ah... what a troublesome fog..." The blond old man leaned back on the sofa and looked up at the ceiling.

"Send more people to keep a close watch on the entrance to the Grand Line; that's our last line of defense," the white-haired old man said, closing his eyes as he offered his final suggestion.

The other four nodded silently, and that was how the matter was settled.

The World Government and the Navy will send additional personnel to the Twin Gorges area.

Fortunately, most of the Seastone is in the hands of the Navy and the World Government, so there is no need to worry about the Freedom Alliance crossing the Calm Belt with impunity.

……

Revolutionary Army Headquarters.

"Hahaha...Good! Excellent! The World Government has lost the East Blue in one fell swoop, this is really good news!" Bello Betty laughed loudly, but showed no intention of putting down the cigarette in his mouth.

As the commander of the Eastern Route Army, Donghai was completely liberated. Although it wasn't done by their revolutionary army, they were still extremely happy.

After all, we all share the same goal!

Overthrow the new world and establish a new era of freedom and peace.

Ashluh beside her laughed along, but tears welled up in her eyes.

Sabo and Long exchanged a glance, then raised their glasses and drank.

"report!"

A revolutionary soldier ran in.

"Speak." Long put down his wine glass and raised his head.

"We just received a message from the Kingdom of Oycott. King Norton says he has opened a hole between the East Sea and the North Sea!"

"What?! What did we just open?" Sabo jumped up in shock.

"It's open...it's opened a hole..." the soldier repeated nervously.

"It's opened... a hole..." Long squinted, picked up his cup again and took a sip of wine, only to find that he had already finished it.

“I’ll send someone to investigate,” Betty said, standing up.

Dragon nodded, and Betty glanced at Ashlu beside her.

Ashlu nodded and immediately got up and left.

"I just don't know how big this hole is." Long stroked his chin, still a little incredulous.

He didn't know how thick the red earth was.

He knew how difficult it was to drive.

Because their revolutionary army had done this kind of thing before.

Unfortunately, it was too much effort, and using explosives wasn't very effective.

So I gave up.

Now that King Norton has sent word that a hole has been blown open, how much explosives would it take to make that happen?

……

As a new day dawns, good things also arrive.

The first shipment from Dressrosa has arrived after payment was settled!

Chapter 199 System, you're slacking off again.

Upon hearing the report, Norton hurriedly got up and signed in.

"System, check-in!"

[Ding! Sign-in successful. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Intermediate Talisman Manual.]

The Intermediate Talisman Manual upgrades all talismans included in the original Beginner Talisman Manual, and adds Intermediate Immobilization Talisman, Hallucination Talisman, Puppet Talisman, Transmission Talisman, Tranquility Talisman, and Sword Qi Talisman.

"Six more types have been added, and the intermediate talismans have been fully upgraded? What the hell was I thinking yesterday... I spent ages using basic talismans to blow things up..." Rolling his eyes, Norton thought of the story of Sun Wukong going to the Peach Garden.

Sun Wukong went to the Peach Garden to pick peaches to eat, and seven fairy maidens came, so he froze them all.

Later, seven Calabash Brothers appeared...

Uh... cough cough...

The more Norton thought about it, the more inappropriate it became. He reached out and patted Bonnie's bottom to wake her up.

"Honey, I'm going to get busy."

"Mmm...I want a kiss..."

Bonnie reverted to her original form and pouted her cute little lips.

boo——

"Let's go!"

"Um--"

After the kiss, Norton got up and went to wash up.

Before long, he stood in front of several large boxes.

Eileen opened the portal, and Norton sent all the boxes into the vault before going inside to deal with them.

"Brother, I've never seen you touch this machine. What's it for? Is it related to the goods that were delivered this time?" Eileen followed and closed the door, only to find Norton fiddling with the machine that had been sitting there for a long time.

"Of course, watch carefully!" Norton grinned, turned on the machine, and began unpacking the package.

After the large boxes were opened, Eileen finally saw what was inside.

"Why are all these fruits moldy? Look, they're all spotted." Eileen frowned as she walked over, picked up an apple with black spots, and looked at Norton.

"This is called an artificial Devil Fruit, and it looks like this. In reality, its effects are extremely unstable. Eating it can cause anything from a terminal illness to death on the spot. There's a certain chance of getting a semi-finished ability, and an extremely small chance of getting the complete form," Norton explained as he took the artificial fruit from her.

"hiss--"

Eileen quickly rubbed her hands on her body and said, "I hope I won't get poisoned just by touching it."

Not feeling reassured after rubbing it, he took out his white gloves and put them on.

"Not at all!" Norton shook his head, then put the fruit into the fruit purifier, closed the lid, and pressed the start button.

The starter immediately played a pleasant melody, and the artificial fruit inside the purification chamber began to rotate as the tray turned.

Eileen blinked her beautiful eyes and leaned closer to take a look. It seemed that the fruit had indeed changed over time.

The originally smooth surface is now showing some clearly visible lines.

The spots that originally looked like mold have also shown some three-dimensional changes.

It's as if the entire fruit is transforming from a 2D image into a 3D image.

Ding--

The machine stopped after about a minute.

Norton opened the lid, took out the slightly warm Devil Fruit, and held it in his palm for a close look with Eileen.

"See? Something has changed."
