Chapter 243 Nami
After beating up the pirates, they beat up the navy, leaving behind a mess, and the Arlong Pirates and navy soldiers tied into two piles.
Jerry and his crew acted as if nothing had happened and calmly set out on the road to Kokoa West Village.
"Jerry, this evil dragon pirate group, and that rat colonel, have colluded with each other and bullied the village for so many years. We can't let them off easily... Well, that evil dragon and the rat are gone, so I won't talk about it anymore."
Deuce said solemnly the news he had learned from the torture, and then made a suggestion: "I think that for the remaining members of the Arlong Pirates, we should let the villagers decide their life and death."
"Well, let's do as you say." Jerry nodded, and everyone had no objection.
Little Bonnie said disappointedly: "I wanted to travel to Fishman Island, but seeing them like this..."
Kalina smiled and stroked her little head. "Little Bonnie, there are still many friendly mermaids and fishmen on Fishman Island. Don't let this scum affect your subjective judgment."
"Really?" Little Bonnie looked up at everyone. She obviously didn't want to give up the travel agreement with Big Bear easily.
Seeing everyone nodding in agreement, and recalling the Fishman Island that Carrot had described before, Bonnie's face once again broke into a bright smile: "Then I still want to go and see it!"
Everyone chatted casually along the way and soon entered the Kekoyasi Village.
"Hmm? What? Are you guys welcoming us?"
After Jerry and others entered the village, they immediately noticed a group of villagers gathered on the main road in the center of the village, looking in the direction they were coming from.
Leading the group was a middle-aged man wearing a patrol uniform, with old scars all over his face and a windmill stuck on his hat.
He took two steps forward and asked in surprise, "Hello, who are you? Why are you coming from over there?"
As the diplomatic spokesperson of the Kuroko Pirates, Deus also took a step forward and responded kindly: "Ah, hello, we thought that was an amusement park, so we went there..."
"You went to the Dragon Park!?" the middle-aged patrolman Ajian exclaimed, and the other villagers also started talking about it.
The next moment, Ah Jian came back to his senses and asked hurriedly, "Those fishmen didn't do anything to you, did they?"
Noticing the curious yet slightly worried looks in the villagers' eyes, Deuce scratched his head and replied, "Well, they did want to do something, but we defeated them all in self-defense."
Hearing this, the villagers were stunned for a moment, and then fell into a noise again.
"What? Are you kidding me?"
"That group of fishmen were defeated?"
"Really? Are we dreaming?"
"It would be great if it were true..."
Looking at the different expressions on the faces of the people opposite, they had looks of disbelief yet hope.
Deuce and the others looked at each other in bewilderment, deeply feeling how severely the lower-class people were oppressed by those lawless pirates and navy officers.
"We are not kidding, and we know that you..." Just as Deus finished speaking, a burst of hurried footsteps and shouts suddenly sounded, interrupting his speech.
"Hoohoo...Everyone! Listen to me, the Arlong Pirates...They've been defeated!"
A pretty girl with short orange hair and casual short clothes came running from the direction of Dragon Park, running as fast as she could and shouting excitedly.
"Nami! What...what did you say?" The villagers were shocked again, but unlike before, they no longer thought it was just a joke.
Nami stopped, bent down, put her hands on her knees, and took a few breaths.
When she raised her head again, her face was already covered with tears.
She was trembling all over, looking excitedly at Ajian, her sister Noqigao who had just walked to the front, and the villagers who were waiting for answers with expectant eyes.
Nami tried to calm herself down but found it almost impossible.
She pursed her lips tightly and nodded silently. Then, as if she had finally calmed down, Nami rushed towards Nojigo in ecstasy and screamed:
"Really! Aaron and the others have been defeated! We are truly free!"
"Boom!" At this moment, the news came from the mouth of Nami, whom they were familiar with, and the villagers' emotions finally exploded and could no longer be suppressed.
They cheered excitedly, hugged each other, laughed and danced.
Some people cried with joy, while others loudly vented the emotions that they had suppressed for years.
The Kuroko Pirates quietly watched the scene before their eyes which made them feel deeply moved. To them, such a scene was not unfamiliar.
During the sea voyages in the past few years, Jerry and his crew had also defeated local pirates, navy or kingdom troops when they landed on other islands, and had seen many people behave in a similar manner.
When the villagers gradually calmed down, Kalina took a few steps forward, waved and said, "Nami, long time no see."
Nami, who had already wiped away her tears and was chatting excitedly with Nokiko and the others, turned around and asked in astonishment, "Kalina?"
Nojiko, who had short blue hair, turned around and said softly, "Nami, do you know these people? They are the ones who said they defeated the Arlong Pirates."
Nami and Kalina's reunion attracted the attention of everyone present.
The two smiled at each other and briefly introduced the people around them to each other.
At the suggestion of the villagers, everyone walked towards the Dragon Park together.
Along the way, everyone walked and talked, and when the villagers learned that Jerry and his crew were also pirates, they felt a brief panic.
But when the villagers truly felt that this group of pirates had no ill intentions and were just joking and chatting in a friendly manner, they gradually put aside their doubts and prejudices.
When the villagers learned that A'long and his gang were secretly colluding with the local naval branch, they were extremely angry and cursed those sailors with gnashing teeth.
During this process, Nami's expression was changeable. She had been deeply persecuted by pirates since she was a child, and she had always hated pirates the most.
Even in order to collect 100 million berries to redeem the Cocoanis Village from Arlong, Nami only chose pirates as her targets for theft.
During those years when she had to work day and night and worked hard to save the village on her own, she never placed her hopes on the navy.
She could not imagine that the ones who would save the village in the end would be pirates.
