"I did!"
Qin Ming looked at his hands as if he didn't hear Nami's words. He muttered to himself.
"I really…"
Qin Ming's shoulders trembled slightly. Nami, who was standing in front of him, felt strange. She didn't understand what was wrong with this man.
When Nami wanted to pat Qin Ming's shoulder and ask him for a clear answer, Qin Ming raised his arms and shouted,""I'm no longer a lousy fighter!"
This shout wasn't earth-shattering, but it was enough to shock the unprepared Nami. She stood rooted to the ground with a dazed expression, as if she had been petrified.
In fact, Qin Ming was really excited at this moment. It was the first time in his history that he had defeated a real pirate, and it was even a 1v7. He won easily, which made him extremely happy.
In fact, the Laughing Fish that Qin Ming had caught earlier was definitely not less dangerous than the seven pirates he had defeated not long ago. In fact, it was even more dangerous.
However, the sense of accomplishment and recognition that humans gained from defeating a beast and defeating others could be said to be different from the heavens. Qin Ming's performance at this moment fully proved this point.
Since I can defeat those pirates, as long as I continue to train relentlessly, I will definitely become stronger!
Just as Qin Ming was thinking about this, Nami's eyes turned as she thought to herself," This guy looks like a hothead. I might really be able to borrow his power to fulfill my wish.
With this thought in mind, Nami cleared her throat and talked to Qin Ming about the collaboration.
"Cooperate?"
Qin Ming, who had finally calmed down from his excitement, finally noticed Nami's existence. After hearing Nami's words, he asked in confusion.
He saw that although Nami's smile was bright, there seemed to be a hint of craftiness hidden within that seemingly innocent smile. He could not help but become wary.
Based on Qin Ming's understanding, Nami was not only good at sailing, but she was also skilled in deception, gambling, and stealing. She was also very good at acting. Before he established a relationship of mutual trust with Nami, how could he be careless?
However, the first conversation I had with Nami was actually about a collaboration. No matter how I thought about it, it felt strange.
Qin Ming thought that his first conversation with Nami would be more pleasant, but from the looks of it, it seemed like they were already plotting against each other.
"That's right. We can go steal the treasures of those stupid pirates and take them for ourselves. If we succeed, I'll give you some money, and you'll definitely be satisfied with the reward. Don't worry, if you cooperate with me, I guarantee you'll earn a lot.”
Nami looked like she was afraid that Qin Ming wouldn't agree, so she hurriedly said to him, her tone carrying a hint of flattery.
This made Qin Ming even more suspicious of Nami's motives.
Qin Ming knew very well that this girl in front of him was a super money-grubber. She would take the initiative to give up the profits. Moreover, the other party was a stranger they had just met. Qin Ming would rather believe that a sow could cross the four seas than believe that Nami would give you a single cent.
"No, I don't want to work with you.”
Qin Ming rejected Nami's request. He thought that it would be better to meet up with Luffy first. If he wanted to cooperate with Nami, it wouldn't be too late to wait until Nami officially joined them.
"Hey, don't go."
Nami saw that Qin Ming actually left so decisively and hurriedly chased after him, chatting with him: "By the way, why were you in that treasure chest? And when you came out, you seemed very angry. Did someone anger you?”
"I'm in a good mood now, but I'm not angry at anyone. The reason why I'm in that box is purely an accident.”
After thinking for a while, Qin Ming decided not to tell the truth. If he told Nami that he was forced into the treasure chest by Luffy, he might be laughed at.
Qin Ming saw that Nami had put all the treasures in the storage room into a bag before she left. There was a wound on her left arm that was neither deep nor shallow. It was obvious that she had been cut when she fought with the pirates.
However, Nami was so focused on the treasure that she ignored the wound.
Although it's not a fatal wound, it's still good for you to bandage it.
"Why didn't you treat your wound?"”
"This injury is not a big deal. After I put these treasures away, the wound will begin to heal. My skin is very good, and there will not be any scars.”
Nami said casually to Qin Ming. She was very focused on checking the treasures she had obtained. From time to time, she would use her hands to knock on a few slightly larger gold ingots, as if she was estimating the value of those gold ingots.
Because my skin is good, there won't be any scars after I get injured?
If I believe you, I'm an idiot!
Qin Ming looked at Nami speechlessly. The wound on her left arm was still bleeding.
The wound happened to be on Nami's left arm tattoo. Seeing the tattoo that looked like a ferocious shark wreaking havoc in the sea, Qin Ming immediately understood why Nami didn't care about the wound. It was because the wound was on the tattoo that she hated, so she chose to ignore it.
Rip!
Qin Ming tore off his sleeve and grabbed Nami, who was still engrossed in observing the treasure. He quickly bandaged the wound on her left arm.
Nami didn't seem to notice Qin Ming's actions at all. This made Qin Ming fully realize how terrifying this woman's obsession with treasures was.
"Actually, it's fine if you don't treat this kind of wound. It didn't hurt your bones and muscles.”
It wasn't that Nami didn't know that Qin Ming was helping her dress her wound, but she saw that Qin Ming didn't do anything else. He was purely helping her dress her wound, so she didn't reject him and instead focused on the treasure.
You silly girl, are you uncultured? What if your wound is inflamed?
Qin Ming thought to himself. When he first started fishing, due to his poor fishing skills, he often bumped into things. It was inevitable for him to suffer some minor injuries. As time passed, he also had some experience in dealing with minor injuries.
"The harvest this time is not bad. Let's leave this place quickly.”
Nami's beautiful face revealed a satisfied expression as she swiftly tied a knot on the bag filled with treasures. Then, she picked up the bag and prepared to leave.
"Did you really put some treasure in the treasure chest you were lying in?”
Nami said as they walked out.
"Yes, there was a lot of gold in it, but it was all thrown into the sea.”
Qin Ming said honestly. He wasn't surprised that Nami didn't want to give him any of the loot that the Arrita Pirates had looted.
"How could you throw the gold into the sea? Tell me which sea area you threw it into.”
When Nami heard that there was really gold, her bright eyes immediately turned into the symbol of money. Even her voice became much more pleasant. Then, she asked,"What do you do?"
"Strictly speaking, I can be considered a fisherman.”
As soon as Qin Ming said that, Nami blinked her eyes and said excitedly,""Then you must be very good at salvaging. Hurry up and come with me to fish up all the gold. They must be very eager for my help.”
Damn it, I'm good at fishing, not salvaging. There's a fundamental difference between the two. Girl, don't lose your mind when you hear about gold.
Qin Ming speechlessly looked at the money-grubber Nami, feeling that this girl had deeply tarnished his professional ethics.
When Qin Ming and Nami walked to the deck, Qin Ming couldn't help but ask Nami,""You're really annoying. I don't have time to talk to you now.”
Looking around, he saw that there were many love symbols pasted on the ship, and there was a very cute swan head on the bow.
Thinking of Arita's fat and ugly appearance, coupled with this beautiful and feminine ship, she simply did not fit in, making Qin Ming feel disgusted.
Just as Qin Ming wanted to use his fastest speed to leave this ship that made him feel uncomfortable, suddenly, a big meatball-like thing flew straight towards him.
"What's that?"
Nami exclaimed.
F * ck, isn't this that fat, short, and stout woman, Arita? Could it be that she was already sent flying by Luffy's punch, and now she's coincidentally flying towards me?
Qin Ming looked at it and immediately knew what it was. He quickly took a step back and gathered all his strength into his right fist. He swung it forward."Get lost!"
Bang!
Qin Ming's punch changed the direction of Arita, who was flying towards him. Immediately after, Arita hit the bow of the ship and flew towards the distant sea with the cute swan head.
During this time, Qin Ming heard Arita, who was gradually flying into the distance, shouting at the top of her lungs: "Brat wearing a straw hat, and you hateful brat, I won't let you off!”
Damn it, luckily I reacted fast, otherwise I would have been knocked into the sea by that fat woman Arita.
Qin Ming shook his right arm that was numb and painful from the shock. He had used all his strength to change Arita's flight trajectory with a punch, but Luffy's casual punch could send Arita flying far away. It was obvious that there was still a gap between their strength.
Luffy should be leaving with Corby. I have to find him as soon as possible.
With this thought in mind, Qin Ming quickened his pace. However, at this moment, Nami called out to him,""Wait, we still have to go somewhere.”
When Nami saw Arita earlier, she suddenly remembered that even though she was a female pirate and was so ugly that no one loved her, she must still have a lot of jewelry in her captain's cabin.
Originally, Nami had planned to go to the captain's room after looting the pirate ship's storage room. Who knew that after meeting Qin Ming, she almost forgot about such an important matter.
Just as Nami handed the bag full of treasures to Qin Ming and said that she wanted to find more things, a cannonball exploded near the ship.
"Is the navy here? Let's leave this place first.”
"What are you talking about? There are still some treasures that we haven't obtained yet. How can we leave like this?”
"Which is more important, treasure or life? You're still thinking about treasure at a time like this!”
"Are you stupid? Of course, the treasure is more important!"
Seeing the navy ship firing at them, Qin Ming and Nami started arguing. After saying this, Nami ran to the captain's room, wanting to take Arita's treasure as well.
Boom! Boom!
The navy warships kept firing at Qin Ming and the others. Some of the pirates who slipped back to the pirate ship saw Qin Ming standing on Chuanban Mountain and didn't have time to pay attention to him. They all ran for their lives.
As for the pirates who attacked Qin Ming, they were all sent flying by him.
Some of the pirates even jumped into the sea. Coincidentally, a cannonball flew over and exploded into pieces.
With the continuous bombardment of the naval warships, the pirate ship gradually became riddled with holes and began to sink slowly.
Inadvertently, Qin Ming heard a few pirates talking about escape boats. His heart moved and he followed the pirates to the place where the escape boats were placed. He also took care of the pirates who were leading the way.
Seeing that the pirate ship could not hold on for long and would sink at any time, Qin Ming, who had waited for Nami for a while, was about to put down the ship and leave alone when he heard Nami's shout,""Wait for me, take this!"
Nami ran towards Qin Ming with all her might and threw a big bag of things at him.
Holding the bag in his hand, Qin Ming felt that it was quite heavy. Nami, who had jumped onto the escape ship, took the bag and told Qin Ming that it was all valuable jewelry, necklaces, and gemstones that Arita had collected.
This gave Qin Ming a headache. He didn't expect that Arita was so ugly, but she had plundered a lot of beautiful decorations and placed them in her room. Indeed, it was a woman's nature to love beauty. Even if she was ugly enough to scare children to tears, she would still secretly collect some beautiful jewelry and other things to embellish herself.
Thud!
Qin Ming and Nami quickly landed on the small escape boat and returned to the surface of the sea.
Where did Luffy go? Shouldn't he be here on another escape ship?
Qin Ming stood on the small escape boat and looked around. He was surprised to find that Luffy and the pink-haired Kirby were already far away in the small boat.
"Luffy, I'm still here. Why did you run so far away?？”
Qin Ming hurriedly grabbed the oar and rowed towards Luffy with all his might while shouting loudly.
"Haha, Qin Ming, I knew you wouldn't die in that whirlpool! Wait here, I'll bring you over now.”
Luffy stood at the stern of the ship and saw that Qin Ming seemed to be safe and sound from afar. He couldn't help but laugh happily and even stretched out his arms towards Qin Ming. It was obvious that he wanted to grab Qin Ming.
"Who is this person? His arms are so long. Is he your friend?”
Even though she could hear the sounds of cannons firing, Nami was still shocked by Luffy's long arms.
Qin Ming saw that Luffy's outstretched hand was very close to him. He laughed and turned to Nami. Unexpectedly, a cannonball was aimed at Luffy's arm.
Seeing that things were not looking good, Luffy could only swing his extended arm and dodge the incoming cannonball.
Even though Luffy managed to dodge the attack by swinging his arm, Qin Ming unfortunately suffered because of it.
Because when Luffy was swinging his arm to dodge the cannonball, his long arm changed direction. It was originally going to grab Qin Ming's hand, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into Qin Ming's hand.
Qin Ming, who was about to turn around to talk to Nami, was slapped in the face.
Pa!
A crisp sound rang out as Qin Ming, who had been slapped by Luffy, fell forward uncontrollably and landed on Nami.
This wasn't a big deal, but Qin Ming lost his balance in an instant. He didn't have time to think about it. When he was slapped by a certain scammer and flew towards Nami, his hands grabbed onto two soft things. He didn't know if it was luck or misfortune.
Following that, a voice that sounded like the roar of a lion came from the vast sea where the cannons were firing nonstop."Where are you touching, idiot!"
