Pirates: From Vice Captain to Lord of the Dead

The reception room is extremely spacious, with a huge round coffee table in the middle, surrounded by luxurious leather sofas, an exquisite crystal chandelier above, and the floor covered with patterned tiles.

Reiner sat back on the sofa and looked around the room. It was filled with expensive artworks, with no less than ten paintings on the wall alone.

No wonder Clo was jealous. All the items in this reception room added together would be enough to buy several heads.

"I only knew her family was rich, but I didn't expect it to be so exaggerated."

Reiner thought for a moment and thought that he had to blackmail them a little more. He thought that they must have a lot of good wine and cigarettes hidden in their house.

For Keya's health, we must try to take these things away with her.

What, you say I'm shameless?

Yes, it’s me, that’s right!

Nami was crying sadly at this time. There were so many valuable treasures right in front of her, but she couldn't take them away.

"Why not just steal a few pieces, just a few."

"No, I agreed to only target pirates."

"No, no, no, after all, you saved someone's life, so it's not too much to take a few."

"No Nami, what's the difference between you and a pirate?"

"But I'm a pirate!"

Nami was talking to him at this moment, which made Reiner want to laugh.

"Everyone please stay and have dinner today."

Ke Ya walked in from the door and smiled gently: "I will take you to see the boat later. It was designed by Meli himself."

"I really gained a lot from this trip." Reiner leaned back on the sofa contentedly.

Chapter 8 Merry Usopp

At the banquet, Luffy and Usopp were standing on the table and showing off.

With a pair of chopsticks stuck in his nostrils and a dustpan in his hands, he was doing a strange dance, which made Ke Ya giggle.

"This captain is really unruly."

Nami sighed helplessly, "Speaking of which, where are we going next?"

"Are you going to use that trick again?" Zoro couldn't help but glance at Reiner.

He still remembered that before, Reiner asked Luffy to point to a point on the map, and then they set the West Rob Village as their target.

".That move?"

"Ahem, I already have an idea for the next stop."

Reiner yawned and said to Nami in a puzzled look: "Don't you think we are missing an important partner on the ship?"

"You mean that?"

"Indeed, it would be a shame if the ship was short of that position."

Zoro Nami held her chin and replied.

“You guys think so too, right?”

Luffy came over after hearing that, and looked at the others with a smile, "It's decided then, let's go find a musician!"

"It's the chef, the chef!"

"If you don't need your brain, donate it!"

"Let me tell you what the chef is saying."

Reiner paused, looked up and said, "Barati, the restaurant on the sea, let's go there."

"But it's close to the Grand Line. Before that, I'm considering going to the Konomian Islands to look for Aaron."

"Comeno Islands?"

"This is where?"

"Aaron!!!"

Compared to the others' confusion, Nami exclaimed.

She hadn't expected to hear that name from Reiner's mouth.

'Aaron', these two words were almost her nightmare, and every time they were mentioned they would arouse her inner fear and disgust.

She would never forget the scene when Bellmère was killed by Aaron in order to protect her and Nojigo.

"Nami, what's wrong with you? Do you know this Arlong?"

Luffy asked when he saw Nami looked unhappy.

Nami frowned and remained silent, and the lively atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Reiner was the first to speak and break the silence.

"Arlong was originally a member of a fishman pirate group in the Grand Line."

He slowly explained to Luffy and the others why Arlong came to the East China Sea and ruled the Komeno Islands tyrannically.

"He sounds like a pretty badass, Reiner and Nami, do you know him?"

Luffy asked in confusion, and even Nami looked sideways at Reiner.

She was curious about why Reiner wanted to find Aaron. Was he in collusion with Aaron?

"What are you thinking about?"

Reiner noticed Nami's strange look and explained, "Have you forgotten my ability? I just want his body a little bit."

"So this is ah."

Luffy was relieved and grinned, "Then let's go beat up Arlong first and help Reiner collect new monsters!"

"It's the undead, not a monster!"

"Hey wait a minute!"

Nami became a little anxious, "Do you know how strong Aaron is? He is..."

Nami suddenly stopped talking about this. Arlong's strength was already deeply imprinted in her mind.

Over the years, many navy officers who wanted to capture him never even got a chance to see him, and they were sunk to the bottom of the sea along with their ships.

He was shocked to hear that they were going to cause trouble for Aaron.

But

Nami looked up at the group.

It is so easy for Luffy, Zoro, Reiner and other undead to fight against Cloe who has a bounty of 1600 million Beli.

"What if it was them?" Nami couldn't help but think in her heart.

Maybe they really could defeat Aaron?

In that case, the villagers of Kokoa West Village would be saved from A-Long's dark rule.

No, no.

If they failed, with Aaron's cruel character, he would definitely kill them all.

Nami was in an inner struggle. She had agreed with Aaron that as long as she saved up 100 million, she could buy Kokoyasi Village from him.

But that's 100 million! After all these years, it's still a long way off.

"Hey Nami, what's wrong with you?"

"It's been weird since the beginning."

Several people were puzzled, because except Reiner, no one else knew about the feud between Nami and Arlong.

"I know Aaron"

Nami decided to confess to them.

Afterwards, the few people learned about Nami's past amid her gnashing of teeth.

It turned out that many years ago, after A-Long and his gang came to the East China Sea, they ruled the Comeno Islands with great strength. Everyone had to pay for their lives on time, and her hometown, Kokoasi Village, was one of the Comeno Islands.

"So that's why you became a thief?"

After hearing about the agreement between Nami and Arlong, Zoro roughly guessed the reason why she went to sea.

Luffy was even more angry, "This bastard! I've decided, our next stop is to find that Arlong!"

"Wait a minute, don't you understand yet? Aaron is..."

"No need to persuade us, Nami."

Reiner interrupted Nami, "Anyway, we consider you our navigator."

"If your friend is bullied, don't seek revenge."

"Is that still called a pirate?"

"Besides, if Aaron is here, you won't be able to go with us with peace of mind."

Reiner stood up and looked down at Nami;

"Luffy is upset with him. I want to collect his templates. You've been bullied by him again."

"Any reason is enough for us to beat him up. That's the way pirates do things."

Nami covered her mouth. She was used to living on her own.

I never thought that after Bellmère's death, I would meet someone I could rely on, and I couldn't help but well up in my eyes.

".Thank you."

"Wow. This is so touching."

Usopp burst into tears, "One day I will go out to sea and become a pirate like you!"

"What? You're coming too."
