Big brother, I want to become the strongest pirate in the world!

"Um?!"

Upon hearing Kazan's question, Nagri opened his half-closed eyes and looked at Kazan, while an invisible aura pressed down on Kazan.

Kazan crossed his arms and calmly endured Nagri's sudden release of Conqueror's Haki, as if he were completely unaffected.

After five or six seconds, Nagli squinted again, took a puff of his pipe, and then exhaled softly.

"...I don't know either. Do you think you have it?"

I think I do.

"Hmph, arrogant brat, you might actually have it."

"Uncle Nagley, thank you for chatting with me for so long. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Hey, now that you mention it, there really is one."

"Well... let's talk as we walk. My three little apprentices must be very interested in your story with Roger."

"Haha, alright, I'll tell them all about my evenly matched battle with Roger."

Chapter 101 Heading to Goa

At night, the crew of the Carroso were eating around a campfire.

"Holy crap! That was incredibly close! Roger and I each managed to slash the enemy once, successfully exchanging blows..."

The three little ones, covered in dust, sat next to a squinting old man, listening to his rambling on and on, until they were all drowsy.

There was no cure; this story went on for a whole month, and it was the same story every single month.

The first time I listened to it, I was very interested; the second time, I could find some fun in it; the third time, I treated it as a learning experience; after that, it was like attending a class, and I would feel sleepy no matter how I listened to it.

I have to train like crazy during the day, and then I have to listen to people nagging at night. I can't live like this.

As for Akin, he ate quietly on the other side, like a quiet wild beast, silently replenishing his energy.

After a month of hard work, Akin has proven to Kazan that he has the strength to leave the 'Goblin Group' by defeating the Lord of Gorber Mountain in a head-on battle.

In the end, Kazan got his wish. He transferred Gin away from the "Kids Group," assigned him daily training tasks, and in exchange for Naguri's private tutoring of Gin, he offered to let Ace, Sabo, and Luffy build him a ship.

Kazan is currently in a state of 'inability to fight,' so he cannot provide individual training for Agin, while Nagri's strength makes him a perfect sparring partner for Agin.

Naguri's current strength is at most at the average level of pirates in the first half of the Grand Line's 'Paradise'. He certainly wasn't originally this strong, but he's just too old.

According to him, his Conqueror's Haki has not only not faded, but has become even stronger than when he was young, simply because his 'will' has become stronger.

While Conqueror's Haki doesn't fade with age, physical abilities do, as Naguri clearly demonstrates.

The reason for this judgment is that Kazan had seen Nagri take action a few days ago to save the three little ones who had inadvertently entered the territory of the Lord of Golber Mountain.

Even after throwing the hammer with all his might, and under the circumstances of a sneak attack, he still couldn't kill a large tiger instantly. In the end, he had to rely on his Conqueror's Haki to scare it away.

Kazan asked himself honestly, if he were to unleash his full power against the Lord of Gorber Mountain, he was almost 100% certain he could kill the tiger instantly.

If Kazan at his peak were to face Nagri now.

The outcome of the battle will definitely be Kazan's victory, but the battle will probably not be short, because Nagri's combat awareness and experience are far superior to Kazan's. Although his dual-color Haki is much weaker than before, it is not much different from Kazan's level of dual-color Haki.

However, this level is more than enough for Gin. Apart from Kazan, only Bon Clay in the Monster Pirates should be able to fight Naguri.

Instead of the five people currently gathered around the campfire, Kazan is now in Carosor's bedroom telling Sugar a bedtime story to lull her to sleep.

Previously, Ace, Sabo, Luffy, and the other two had overheard something while lying in a corner and were immediately unhappy about the huge difference in treatment they received. They vowed to fight Kazan to the death.

Of course, it didn't cause much of a stir; Kazan subdued the three little ones in just nine seconds.

"Sugar, do you want to go see your sister Robin and sister Perona tomorrow? It's been a week since you last went back, don't you miss them?"

"I'm thinking of... I'll go see my sister tomorrow."

Sugar's sparkling eyes under the night sky were so adorable that Kazan couldn't help but reveal a lewd smile, just like Monet's.

The next day, Windmill Village.

"Kazan, you're back with Sugar?"

"Yes, yes, Sugar, call someone."

Hello, Auntie!

"Oh my, sweet baby, Auntie will give you an apple."

"Thank you, Auntie!"

Kazan carried Sugar from the village entrance to the village center, and along the way they met many uncles and aunts from Windmill Village who greeted them warmly.

Sugar is very popular with the elderly people in every island and town it goes to.

Kazan found the town's library with practiced ease. The first two times he came here, he had to ask for directions, but now he didn't need to.

Carrying Sugar into the library, Kazan couldn't find Robin and Perona. He had no choice but to ask the old woman who always guarded the library, "Grandma Dongmei, where are Robin and Perona? They should be reading here at this time usually."

"Ah... Little Kazan, Robin and Perona have gone to the Goa Kingdom. They've basically finished reading all the books here, and this morning they said they were going to the Goa Kingdom to bring some books back."

"Huh? To get to the Kingdom of Goa, you have to cross Mount Gorber and the indeterminate terminal station, right? Those two... Grandma Dongmei, I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to find those two brats, they're always giving me trouble."

"Alright, alright, go ahead."

After leaving the library, Kazan did not rush to the Goa Kingdom, but instead went to Makino's tavern first.

"Maginot".

"Mr. Kazan? Are you coming back to see Robin and Perona?"

"Hmm... but the two of them went to the Goa Kingdom by themselves. That country... has some problems, so I'm a little worried. I'll leave Sugar here for now and come pick her up tonight."

"Okay, I'll take good care of Sugar, don't worry."

"Quack! Why didn't you bring candy?!"

"Because Sugar wet the bed last night! So I'm not taking you!"

"Woo woo ...

……

Kazan greeted Makino and then headed straight for the Goa Kingdom.

Although Robin is a formidable fighter and Perona possesses formidable abilities, Kazan remains uneasy!

As the eldest brother, I probably can never truly feel at ease with my younger siblings. No matter how powerful they become, I can't help but worry about this and that in my heart.

As for why he didn't bring Sugar, it's because Kazan can't move at full speed with her on his back. He's always worried about things like whether the speed is too fast or whether Sugar will be uncomfortable in this position.

"Goya, in some ways, is a sick country that is no less than the Kingdom of Krent."

The Kingdom of Goa and the Kingdom of Krent each have their own strengths.

The former, at least outside of Gaozhen and the Royal Palace, is still a real place in the human world. However, Gaozhen and the Royal Palace have become completely incurable 'incurable zones' where 'education' starts from a very young age, and children as young as five or six develop a morbid worldview.

The latter, however, is filled with an abnormal phenomenon: the entire country is obsessed with money, and it's not uncommon for people to do things for money that are hard to imagine. But because of this, the education of children is not valued. Ironically, it is precisely because of this lack of emphasis on education that a glimmer of hope can be seen in those children.

"Speaking of which, the country that once received the title of 'most beautiful in the East China Sea' from the World Government... must be quite wealthy."

Chapter 102 Princess Syndrome

When Kazan traversed the Gorbel Mountains and arrived at the indeterminate destination, he was completely dumbfounded by what he saw.

“Little Perona…you…it seems you’re yearning for my ‘education of love’.”

At this moment, the indeterminate destination had become completely lifeless. There were hardly any people standing, and a large number of people were kneeling on the ground. It was as if the air in this area had dimmed.

Judging from his ashamed expression as he leaned on the ground and mumbled to himself, you could tell he had been affected by Perona's negative influence.

Fortunately, Snack is the only powerful character in this uncertain destination, and he was already taken away by Kazan beforehand, otherwise Perona might have really caused trouble.

"Given Perona's strength, the Negative Ghost's duration won't last long; it should be just ahead."

Kazan glanced at the scene but ignored it, continuing his journey toward the Goa Kingdom.

At this moment, at the gates of the Kingdom of Goa.

"Why won't you let Peipe in! Do you even know who my brother is?!"

Perona, clutching her tattered bear Kumasi and holding her pink devil umbrella, pointed and cursed at the two guards at the gate, acting like a spoiled rich kid.

Robin, on the other hand, was wearing the cloak that Kazan used to conceal his demonic hand, and her beautiful face beneath the hood revealed a deep sense of helplessness.

This is another side of Perona, a naughty girl who has developed princess syndrome.

The reason it's described as Perona's other side rather than the 'real Perona' is because the 'good girl Perona' in front of Kazan is also the real one.

With Kazan gone, no one can control this spoiled little girl. During their month together in Windmill Village, Robin has already seen through Perona's true colors.

Robin, as the older sister, naturally tried to teach Perona that what she was doing was wrong, and even said something like, "My brother won't like Perona like this," which was almost a killer line, but it didn't have much effect.

She still remembers Perona's proud little face: "Brother would never dislike Pepe! Brother loves Pepe the most!"

Robin is still hesitant about whether or not to tell Kazan the truth about Perona...

"Young lady, it's not that we don't want you to go in, but our captain is watching from behind. If you don't produce something to prove your identity, it's really difficult to let you in."

The soldiers didn't dare to be too rude to Perona, because her luxurious attire and natural demeanor were virtually indistinguishable from the nobles in High Town. They were afraid that Perona might actually be a noblewoman, so they spoke to her in a very humble tone.

"This is just a small token of our appreciation. Please accept it. Will this prove our identities?"

At this moment, Robin stepped forward, took out a wad of Berries from his pocket, and handed it to the soldier without making a sound.

"Oh, I'm so sorry... The identities of the two young ladies are quite clear now. We were very rude just now. My subordinate acted recklessly. Please forgive us."

Before the soldier could say anything, a squad leader standing behind him stepped forward, quickly grabbed Bailey, and then gave Robin and Perona a knowing smile.

Robin nodded and then led Perona, who was still about to cause a ruckus, away.

After the two left, the squad leader called over a few soldiers: "Follow those two and see if they're not nobles. If they aren't, capture them and sell them at the slave market. We'll take the brothers out for some fun later."

Several soldiers nodded, then stealthily followed Robin and Perona as they walked away.

In a corner unseen by the squad leader and soldiers, an ear attached to the wall suddenly dispersed, turning into petals that fell into the air and dissipated into dust.

"Second sister! Why are we giving them money?! How dare they stop us?! As long as we use our brother's name, how dare they stop us?!"

"...Sigh...Perona, my brother is still injured. We're hiding here to help him recover. If we reveal his name, we'll be exposed soon."
