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

"Not on the first floor."

Norton quickly checked all the windows on the first floor and then rushed to the second floor.

"Hiss... Mashiro..."

"Oh dear... these two young people... they're actually practicing swordsmanship..."

"Damn it... my eyes..."

After a gasp of surprise, Norton finally found Lucian lying in the hospital bed in the third window from the left, instead of the recovered Lucian who was chatting and laughing with Señor.

At this moment, the curtains in the room were drawn, and Norton could see through the gap in the curtains that Senor was sitting on the edge of the bed, muttering something to Lucien.

Judging from Lucian's appearance, Señor, or perhaps a maid, must have just bathed her and washed her hair, which still looked a little damp.

Lucien sat quietly against the headboard, smiling as he looked at Señor in his baby clothes.

"Did I win or lose this bet?" Norton asked speechlessly, raising his hand and gently tapping on the window.

dong dong...

"Hmm?" Señor frowned slightly, got up and walked to the window, pulled back the curtains and looked outside, but saw no one.

dong dong...

But then the knocking on the window started again.

"What's going on?" Señor pushed open the window and peered down.

Just then, Norton seized the opportunity to fly in from above Señor.

call--

However, since the other half of the curtain was still drawn, Norton inevitably bumped into it when he went in.

"Who?" Señor turned around alertly, his pupils suddenly contracting.

Because right next to his wife's bed, a person dressed in silver clothes and wearing a mask appeared.

"How is this possible?" Señor snapped out of his shock, his face filled with terror. "You...who are you? What are you going to do to my wife?"

Norton shook his head and said, "Mr. Señor, please don't misunderstand. I'm here simply to see if your wife has recovered. I have no ill intentions."

"So... who exactly are you?" Upon hearing this, Señor visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Never mind who I am for now. If you can answer a few questions for me, I might be able to save your wife," Norton countered with a question instead of an answer.

"What question?" Señor's heart skipped a beat as he hurriedly asked, "If you can really save my wife, save Lucien, then ask me anything I can answer!"

“First question.” Norton glanced at Lucian, raised his hand and held up the first finger: “Does Lucian now know your true identity? In other words, after she became like this, have you confessed to her and revealed your true identity?”

Señor nodded earnestly: "Yes! I've told you everything and confessed."

“Very well, then the second question!” Norton held up a second finger and said, “First, I want to clarify that I am not someone sent by Doflamingo, nor do I have any connection with him. Then please answer me, when you witnessed Doflamingo killing his own brother with his own hands, what were you thinking? Did you ever think about leaving this cruel young master who even killed his own brother?”

Señor was stunned.

He is an honest person, not one who is good at scheming.

Chapter 244 I Won't Force You

A few seconds later, Señor lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I've thought about it... and I've been afraid. I'm afraid I'll end up like this... but... do I have a way back? Even if I can leave Doflamingo, so what? He's so powerful, he'll still find a way to find me and kill me..."

"You don't need to tell me the rest of the nonsense! Now, please answer the third question." Norton sighed inwardly, but outwardly remained expressionless, extending his third finger: "Do you know that Doflamingo possesses a pill that can cure any disease?"

"What?" Señor shuddered, jerking his head up to look at Norton. "You...you're telling the truth?"

Norton nodded: "Yes, I personally gave this pill to Doflamingo a few years ago in exchange for information. However, I did it intentionally because I knew about you and Lucian. I hope this guy isn't too selfish and will consider giving it to you to treat Lucian after he gets the pill."

At this point, Norton sighed and said, "Sigh...it seems I was overthinking things...The reason I came here this time was to see if Doflamingo had given it to you, and whether Lúthien was alright..."

"This..." After hearing Norton's words, Señor swayed and hurriedly reached out to hold onto the windowsill, asking, "You... is everything you've said true?"

“It’s absolutely true.” Norton raised his hand and removed his mask, revealing his true appearance. “I am the King of the Kingdom of Oycott and the leader of the Free Alliance, Lanch Norton. I think, given my status, there’s no need for me to lie to you about something like this! After all, our statuses are completely unequal, and I wouldn’t need to come here late at night to lie to you, especially since it was released several years ago.”

"How could this be..." Señor seemed to have lost all his strength. His body went limp, and he slid down the wall to the ground, his lips trembling.

"One last question," Norton continued, holding up his fourth finger, "If I could save Lucian and take you away from here, would you come with me, live a happy life with Lucian, and then have a child with me?"

“That’s right! That’s right!” Señor’s eyes lit up suddenly, and he looked at Norton as if he had grasped a lifeline. “You did say you could save Lucian! If you really can… I…”

With a sudden grit of his teeth, Señor propped himself up and stood up, saying with utmost seriousness, "If you can really save Lucien, I'm willing to go with you! Even if the young master finds out and kills me later, I'll have no regrets!"

"It's not as serious as you make it out to be." Norton calmly waved his hand and said, "Anyone who enters our Free Alliance is absolutely safe. Are you sure?"

“I’m sure!” Señor looked at Lucien, who was sitting quietly on the bed, and nodded heavily with his fists clenched.

“Well then… watch closely!” Norton stretched out his hand, revealing a bright green pill: “This is the same pill I gave Doflamingo. Let’s see how it works.”

With that, Norton casually tossed the pill towards Señor.

Norton wouldn't interfere with giving a woman medication, especially since her husband was right there.

Señor reached out and took it, looked at it in front of his eyes, then smelled it. His eyes lit up, and he hurried over to feed Lucien the medicine.

The healing pills have a pleasant medicinal fragrance, which, in Señor's experience, poison would never have.

Moreover, as the ruler of a country, the other party had no reason to travel such a long distance to sneak into his room and tell such a big lie to poison his wife, Lúthien.

While he was feeding Lucian his medicine, Norton took out the Endless Water Bottle, opened the lid, poured a glass of water into a cup on the bedside table, and handed it to him.

"Thank you." Señor thanked her gratefully, put the pill into Lucian's mouth, and then took the water glass and fed her a few sips of water.

How were you fed them?

Let's kiss!

They've been married for a long time, this kind of thing is just a normal part of their lives!

After administering the medicine, Señor put down the water glass, wiped the water from the corner of his mouth, and looked at Lucien with a nervous expression.

Under the stimulation of the SS-grade drinking water, the drug's effects quickly spread throughout Lucy's body.

The effects of the SS-grade water, combined with the medicinal properties of the healing pills, gently flowed through Lucián's limbs and bones, improving and healing the hidden ailments caused by years of being bedridden.

Then it travels upwards along the meridians, gently clearing the brain's meridians and blood vessels, correcting the damaged brain nerves, and quickly repairing them.

Visibly, Lucien's body first trembled slightly, and then his soles and fingers began to curl and clench.

Señor stared wide-eyed at the scene with ecstatic joy, his breathing becoming rapid.

As time passed, neither Señor nor Norton spoke, but both watched silently as Lucien gradually recovered.

About ten minutes later, Señor suddenly noticed that Lucien's eyeballs had started to move, and tears were sliding down his cheeks.

Finally, Lucien, with tears streaming down his face, turned his eyes and met those of Señor, who was also suddenly overcome with tears.

Half an hour later, in the villa area north of the Oycot Kingdom Casino.

“This place will be yours from now on. You can gradually get used to life here before deciding whether you want to come and help me.” Norton and Eileen, along with Señor and Lucien, appeared in front of a detached villa.

"Thank you so much!" Lucien bowed slightly and thanked her. "Without you, I'm afraid I'd still be in a state of living death..."

"Alright, you've said enough words of thanks, and I'm tired of hearing them! If you really want to thank me, then get used to life here sooner rather than later! We don't need the Mafia here, but we do need more managers to join us. Señor, I won't force you; think it over yourself."

“Very well, King Norton, since you have said so, I will thank you without further ado and will consider it as soon as possible.” Señor nodded earnestly.

"Let's go." Norton waved his hand, and Eileen opened a door, and the two returned to the palace.

Is he really so comfortable leaving Senor in the villa area?

of course!

Norton checked Senor's loyalty when he arrived in the Kingdom of Oycot.

This man truly deserves the reputation of being loyal and righteous. Norton helped him, and he genuinely had no ulterior motives towards Norton, choosing to trust him.

Therefore, his initial loyalty to the Kingdom of Oicot was 30 points, while Lucián's was slightly higher, reaching 50%.

(P.S.: Thank you to Xiao Yu who loves sweet and sour lettuce, the Emperor's Second Uncle, Xiao Ka Shi Facts, and Ma Shi Yan from Danfeng for the generous donations! You are all the most adorable people! Haha...)

Chapter 245 Go for it!

However, none of that matters anymore, because with Señor, the SS-grade rich ore vein obtained from the sign-in a few days ago can now be officially mined.

When Norton checked in a few days ago, in addition to receiving an SS-class strategic reconnaissance satellite, he also received an SS-class rich mineral vein.

The satellite has already been launched, but he hasn't yet placed the mine.

Once Senor's loyalty exceeds 50%, the mine can be handed over to him to lead the mining operations. At that point, the mine can be placed on the industrial island.

The SS-grade rich ore veins are extremely rich in resources, ranging from common iron, copper, gold and silver ores to various rare minerals.

In the study, none of the women were asleep yet.

When Norton and Eileen returned, Bonnie and the others quickly came over to ask what was wrong.

"Honey, is the person you brought back your target for this trip?" Bonnie took Norton's arm and sat down with him on the large sofa.

Norton nodded and introduced, "Yes, Señor is a loyal and righteous man with compassion for the weak. He's a tough guy who doesn't like to cheat, and I like him a lot. Most importantly, his Devil Fruit ability is very beneficial to us. With his addition, our strength can be improved."

"What kind of Devil Fruit power does he have?" Eileen sat down next to Bonnie and handed the ring back to her.

“His Devil Fruit ability is the Water-Water Fruit. When activated, it allows him to move freely through objects like he’s swimming. With him, we can greatly benefit our mineral exploration and mining, as well as the precise solution to some special problems.” Norton said, gesturing with his hands. “Simply put, he can swim on the ground, and even swim into the interior of mountains or the earth itself.”

The girls nodded in understanding.

After figuring out the matter, the group chatted for a few more minutes before returning to their respective palaces.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, the island transformation is complete.]

The next morning, before Norton even opened his eyes, the system notification sounded in his mind.

"Okay! Good news first thing in the morning, looks like today is going to be another great day! Like... hehe..."

After chuckling to himself with his eyes closed for a while, Norton opened them and looked at the two women beside him.

"System, check-in!"

[Ding! Sign-in successful. Congratulations, host, you have obtained an SSS-level intelligent manager robot.]

An SSS-level intelligent manager, a nanobot, capable of changing its appearance at will, possessing extremely high intelligence, loyal only to its host, and omnipotent in networking, able to help the host manage the network.

"Holy crap! The system understands me perfectly! What I need right now is someone like this to help me manage my network! Phone numbers, network accounts... oh dear... those aren't my strong suits! With this, I'm invincible!"
