This time, Usopp did not decline. He only hesitated for a moment before saying with a firm gaze,
"Wait for me at the dock first. I'll follow you!”
After saying that, he turned around and ran toward the villa on the mountain.
Sauron and Nami were confused, while Xia Nuo smiled knowingly.
He knew that Usopp had already made up his mind. He just wanted to say goodbye to a certain girl before he left.
Ousopp sped along the way and soon arrived at a corner of the villa.
He used the secret door that he had dug himself to sneak in. He climbed up the familiar tree and saw Keya lying on the bed with a pale face.
"Keya!"
Usopp's eyes revealed a look of reluctance, but he quickly regained his determination.
"Usopp!"
As if she had sensed something, Keya opened her eyes weakly. The first person she saw was Usopp, who was sitting on a tree.
~~~~~~
"So slow! What is that Usopp doing? The navy is about to arrive!”
On the deck of the Azure Dragon, Nami was getting bored from waiting. She could not help but knock the lion beside her to relieve her boredom.
"You brat, stop slacking off! You slept for such a long time just now. Work harder!”
"Roar ~"
After waking up, Ricky held the broom and felt extremely wronged.
It wasn't that it wanted to sleep, it was just hypnotized.
At the thought of this, it was furious. It looked at Zango, who was also doing the cleaning work with it, with an unfriendly gaze.
"Is he not coming?"
Just as Nami made this guess, she saw a figure running towards them from the top of a cliff in the distance.
"Sorry for the long wait, everyone!"
Usopp waved his hand as he rushed toward Azure Dragon with a smile.
"Hahaha, without me, Captain Usopp, how could your voyage be so pleasant? What a majestic ship!!”
Before he could finish his bragging, he was immediately convinced when he saw the full appearance of the Azure Dragon.
He looked at the majestic Azure Dragon in front of him with stars in his eyes and kept making "Si Ge" sounds from his mouth.
"Hurry up and get on the boat! Don't delay any longer. The navy will arrive soon. You won't be able to leave even if you want to!”Xia Nuo greeted with a smile.
"Roger, Captain, Captain. I should be the captain!"
"What are you thinking, hahaha!"
Joyful laughter resounded across the ocean.
The Azure Dragon lifted its anchor and disappeared from this sea area in the blink of an eye, the homeland of Usopp.
About two hours later, a navy warship slowly emerged from the horizon and soon arrived at the coastline of Xiluobu Village.
Rows of navy soldiers walked onto the island under the lead of an old chain-smoking man who had short silver hair, wore a big coat with the word " Justice " on the back, had a pair of goggles around his neck, and a strange weapon on his back. He had several cigars on his arm, and his face was even more ferocious than Sauron's.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, they found the figures of the Black Cat Pirates and the other crew members who had been tied up and fainted on the ground.
"It's indeed the notorious Black Cat Pirates. It seems that we're a step too late. They should have been taken care of by someone. Go check their identities and see if their current captain, Zango the Hypnotist, is among them!”
The familiar clothes and pirate logo on the crew members were recognized by the old man with two cigars in his mouth at a glance. He ordered the surrounding sailors.
"Yes, Colonel Smogg!"
The soldiers immediately scattered. Smoker Smoggy also glanced at the other corpse on the ground.
Beside the corpse, there was a bounty notice.
Smoggy picked it up and looked at it. Then, he looked at the appearance of the corpse on the ground and could not help but raise his eyebrows.
" Interesting. The former captain of the Black Cat Pirates, Baiyi Crowe, who was arrested and executed by the navy three years ago, actually came back to life and was killed again here.”
"I think he was killed three years ago. He wasn't really a hundred, but a scapegoat. The original body concealed his identity and went into hiding.”
Looking at Crowe's clothes, it was a rather luxurious suit. He should have some status in this village. When the time came, he would ask the villagers about him and get a general idea of the situation.
"Hmph, Monca is a disgrace to the navy! He had thought that he had once made meritorious contributions to the navy, but in the end, he had actually been played around by others, leaving behind such a huge hidden danger!”
"I really don't know where he got his ability and shamelessness from. He was actually promoted to colonel and dared to be a dictator in the town and the base! What were the navy officers doing, identifying criminals with bounties and managing promotions?!”
" It seems that the navy is getting more and more corrupted. I thought that it was already too much in the great sea route, but I didn't expect it to be even worse in the East China Sea!”
"Fortunately, Mr. Karp came to the East China Sea for some reason. He hasn't left yet and has received an order to send Monca to the Navy Headquarters for judgment. It just so happens that Monca will be charged with dereliction of duty.”
