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

"In the old woman's eyes, the nun is a gentle and kind mother. In reality, she is a human trafficker who works for the world government and specializes in searching for children all over the world to sell."

"It's worth mentioning that the nun at this time possessed a Devil Fruit ability. Her Devil Fruit ability is the same one that Big Mom is currently using."

“Once, it was the birthday of the older woman who was still a child. The nun and the other abducted children prepared a homemade birthday cake for her. The older woman was overjoyed. After thanking everyone, she happily began to eat the birthday cake.”

"However, just as she was enjoying her meal more and more, her food cravings kicked in! The middle-aged woman, lost in her own world, only knew how to eat everything in front of her. Soon after, when the woman regained her senses, the nun was gone, the children were gone, and she... from then on possessed the nun's Devil Fruit power!"

"Now that you've heard this, tell me, where did the old lady and the children go?"

After saying that, Norton looked at Bonnie, whose face was pale.

"No...it can't be what I think, can it..." Bonnie trembled, hugged her husband tightly, and looked at Norton nervously.

“That’s how it is!” Norton sighed. “As everyone knows, Devil Fruit powers can only be acquired by eating them. So… Big Mom still doesn’t know where Sister Nunnery is, because most of those who knew were eaten by her, and no one can provide an answer, not even Longbread!”

"If there's anyone in this world besides me who might have guessed this, it's the long bread roll who only arrived at the scene afterward! Based on the situation and the old lady's description, he guessed the outcome much later, but unfortunately, he dared not say it. Because if he did, not only would the old lady instantly go berserk, but his life would also be in danger..."

After telling Big Mom's story, Norton sighed and said, "So, strictly speaking, Big Mom is half a pitiful person... Besides her, Kaido is also half a pitiful person..."

"Huh? How did Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, get involved again?" Bonney was surprised again.

“Because of the World Government…” Norton said, his eyes flashing coldly. “When Kaido was very young, his hometown betrayed him to protect its own position and sent them to Vegapunk for research. Later, Kaido, with his strong physique, escaped Vegapunk’s clutches with King and the others, and eventually joined the Rocks Pirates, becoming Big Mom’s teammate.”

After saying that, Norton got up, picked up Bonney, and made her sit facing him on his lap. He buried his face in the mountains and said, "So, Kaido is also half a pitiful person, because his hometown betrayed him in order to survive."

“Well… indeed, behind every strong person is a heartbreaking story that no one knows…” Bonnie said, giving Norton a tender kiss. “Take you for example. Back then, you almost died in a pirate attack. After years of struggle, you grew from a dying child into a king known throughout the world.”

“Yes!” Norton looked up and gazed deeply into Bonnie’s eyes. “Besides that, I am also very fortunate to have a beautiful and virtuous wife who is both gentle and capable as my good wife. Thank you, my queen! I will love you for the rest of my life… without regret!”

“Husband…My King…” Bonnie looked at Norton with tears welling up in her beautiful eyes, and then, without realizing it, she was staring at him during her morning exercise!

The eighth set of broadcast gymnastics is now beginning!

Stretching exercises, ready—go!

One two three four, five six seven eight, two two three four, five six seven eight...

"So, these are my spoils! Let's ignore the Poneglyphs for now. Our goal isn't to become the Pirate King, but to destroy the World Government and become the true rulers of the seas! The lost history is irrelevant to us, because it's just a fig leaf for the World Government, not ours!"

After breakfast, Norton held a brief morning meeting in the conference room.

Most of those attending the morning meeting were ministers from the Kingdom of Oicot, as well as Neptune and Hancock, among others.

“These Devil Fruits are all from Kaido. Hancock, do you need two more? If it's just you and the other two, I think you're still a bit lacking in strength!” Norton looked at Hancock and pointed to the five fruits on the table.

"Okay, I'll take two!" Hancock smiled charmingly and nodded. After looking at the Devil Fruits for a few seconds, she picked out two and handed them to her sister behind her.

“There are three more. Now that Mermaid Island is completely integrated with the continent of the Kingdom of Oicot, does anyone on your side want to experience the power of a Devil Fruit that can’t swim?” As he spoke, Norton pointed to one of the Devil Fruits and said, “That Devil Fruit is called the Target-Target Fruit, which was once Vander Decken’s Devil Fruit. He used this Devil Fruit to harass Shirahoshi quite a bit.”

“So this is the fruit…” Neptune bent down, squinted at it, and then shook his head, saying, “I don’t want it. The power of this fruit is not very useful to us on Mermaid Island. The ocean is our advantage.”

“Well… alright!” Nodding, Norton looked at Bonnie again: “Let’s pick one for your Kingdom of Sobel. Your kingdom is too weak, and Grandma can’t handle it alone. Find someone trustworthy to feed him.”

Bonney didn't stand on ceremony with Norton and immediately picked out a Devil Fruit and held it in her hand.

Since no one wanted the two babies, Norton dumped them all on Yixiao and Colt, leaving them to handle the situation.

Anyway, Yixiao is now the commander-in-chief of the entire Freedom Alliance army, so it's fine for him to make the allocations.

However, we still need to confirm with Norton before actually assigning the tasks.

When the meeting ended, Miki brought out today's newspaper, which said that Straw Hat Luffy had arrived in Alabasta, defeated Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and exposed Crocodile's conspiracy.

As a result, the bounties for the Straw Hat crew have all increased.

Norton glanced at the Straw Hat Pirates' wanted poster and smiled.

Luffy and his crew ended up together again by chance.

Nami had a lot of fun, as you can tell from her radiant smile in the photos.

Chapter 211 The Right Person

Therefore, Norton never regretted Nami's choice.

Because that was her choice; everyone has their own aspirations!

I can't force her to give up pursuing her dreams and change the course of her life just because I'm her older brother.

As the saying goes, there are things one should do and things one should not do.

There are some people Norton can change, or even destroy. But those are outsiders.

He can't do that with his own people.

With a smile, Norton laid out all the wanted posters and said, "Just keep an eye on them, and make sure nothing serious happens. Have the intelligence department of the Grand Line remember their names: Monkey D. Luffy; Roronoa Zoro; Nami; Usopp; Vinsmoke Sanji—well, don't remember his last name, just remember Sanji; Tony Tony Chopper; Nico Robin. If anything happens to any of them in the future, remember to notify me."

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Miki nodded and made a mental note of it.

"How's the longbread going?" Norton looked up and then at Raul.

Raul shook his head: "That old man is very stubborn. No matter what we say, he remains steadfast."

“In that case… let’s go, I’ll go take a look myself.” Norton stood up and waved to the side.

The maid who was in charge of managing Norton's backpack hurriedly handed it over.

Norton slung his backpack over his shoulder, turned, and walked with Raul toward the dungeon.

The dungeon where Longbread was imprisoned was modified by Raul using Seastone, so Longbread couldn't use his Devil Fruit powers while imprisoned inside.

Otherwise, he would have turned the dungeon into a sea of ​​food long ago, eating his way out.

When Norton arrived, the old man was lying on the stone bed pretending to be dead.

"Hey, old man, I heard you've made up your mind to die rather than surrender, right?" Raul had someone open the door, and Norton walked in, standing beside the stone bed and coldly looking at him.

The long bread opened one eye, glanced at the elegantly dressed Norton, and suddenly exclaimed "Hey!" before spitting at Norton.

Hey! Damn... that old bastard...

Why waste words with him?

Norton flashed forward, his right hand forming a sword shape as he slashed down.

puff...

The next second, the long bread's eyes widened as its head separated from its body.

"Good riddance! That damned old bastard dared to offend our King!" Seeing this, Raul drew his sword and stepped forward. Seeing Norton's intervention, he said with some regret, "It's just a pity, His Majesty's hands shouldn't have been dirtyed..."

“It’s alright.” Norton took off his backpack and placed it next to the old man’s body, opening it to reveal the fruit inside.

He stood there quietly, his eyes fixed on his backpack.

Seeing this, Raul didn't dare say anything more, assuming the king was still angry and quietly adjusting his mindset.

Before long, one of the fruits changed.

With a satisfied smile, Norton slung his backpack over his shoulder, turned, and walked out: "Just dispose of it however you like."

"Yes."

Raul waved his hand, and two expressionless jailers brought over a tattered sack, casually stuffed the long loaf of corpse into it, and carried it away.

After they left, several expressionless cleaners came in, very professionally cleaned up the blood, and then left.

The long loaf of bread simply vanished from the world, never to be seen again!

at the same time……

Whole Cake Island...

"I want to eat... I want to eat... Where did the long bread go... I want to eat!"

"Oh no! Quick, get some food, lots of food... Mom's going to have a seizure..."

Amidst the angry roars of the older women, the group of women completely descended into chaos.

What does "a middle-aged woman's food craving syndrome" mean?

I just want to eat whatever I want, and I have to eat my fill before I'm satisfied.

Now that Longbread is dead, Perospero and Katakuri, who were searching for him, watched with grim faces as their Vivre Cards burned and turned to ashes, utterly speechless.

What does it mean when the Vivre Card burns out completely?

It signifies the complete death of the corresponding person!

The person is dead, so how could the old woman possibly have access to the food provided by the long bread?

Fortunately, during his tenure, Longbread trained his own team of chefs and apprentices.

The food they made was not as good as long bread, but it was almost the same. The only drawback was that the quantity was not as large or the speed of making long bread was not as fast.

The Eat-Eat Fruit can turn any substance in the world into a thing with a wave of its hand. How could people who make food through normal means possibly catch up with the Eat-Eat Fruit?

Boom... Boom boom...

The food wasn't ready yet, but the old lady had already started to go wild, tearing down houses one by one and then stuffing them into her mouth, crunching away.

"No...no...this isn't the taste...no!!" The long bread died, and his Devil Fruit power disappeared, so all the houses that had turned into food returned to their original forms.

Watching the old woman eat and roar, Katakuri, cold sweat dripping down his forehead, said, "Let's evacuate everyone first... and notify the other islands to make food together. It seems Mom is going to cause quite a scene this time."

"That's all we can do..." Perospero nodded with a grim expression, then turned and rushed off to assign tasks.

Katakuri had to stay and keep an eye on the old woman; if she did anything too outrageous, only he could stop her.

Norton had no idea what was going on over there; if he did, he'd be laughing his head off right now.

He's currently worried about who should use this edible fruit.

It's definitely not suitable to give it to outsiders; I wouldn't feel comfortable giving it to them.

Even for someone with a 100% loyalty rating, Norton felt that his own people were more suitable.

But when it comes to their own people, his wife Bonney, sister Irene, and Nojiko already have Devil Fruit abilities, and Nami has gone to sea, so giving her her abilities wouldn't be of any use.

After considering all the options, it seems that only Bellemere remains.

However, Bellemere has been taking care of the children with Nochigo all this time, and their happy life together is the envy of everyone.

Who else could it be given to?

Even the three girls he rescued have gained Devil Fruit abilities...
