Raavan One Piece - Chapter 5
Chapter 5: Bet
In the early morning of the next morning, Nojiko, who woke up in the middle of the night, helped Raavan to prepare everything he needed to live at sea. Finally, when she quietly transported him to the port of Lime Village, she secretly gave him 200,000 Beri.
Raavan looked at the wrinkled 200,000 banknotes with blood stains on his hands, his sore nose, his vision gradually blurred, and tears flowed down again. He knows, This is the money that Nami desperately stole from the pirates, each with blood and tears!
Nojiko stood by the harbor, watching Nami’s ship, and suddenly heard Raavan’s sobbing, turned to look at Raavan, and sighed, “Raavan, you are not ten years old, you are grown up. It is no longer the crybaby who wept so easily.
You have to be strong. If you cry at every turn, the teacher who teaches you swordplay must be furious?”
Raavan was busy wiping away his tears. In fact, he easily shed tears because he is too easy to satisfy and too happy.
Like being able to stand on the beach to blow hair and confuse each other with familiar girls makes him feel new and moved, not to mention being treated like Nami and Nojiko as brothers who are about to study abroad.
Raavan took a deep breath, looking towards Arlong Park direction, and said, “Sister Nojiko, please continue to believe in me. The day when I re-enter Cocoyashi Village is the time when Arlong and other fishmens head will roll off!”
Nojiko looked at Raavan, and her eyes were red, and she said softly, “I believe in you.”
At this moment, a small fishing boat was slowly approaching the coast not far away. Nami stood on the deck of the fishing boat and waved her hands vigorously towards Raavan and Nojiko.
Nojiko and Raavan also waved in response.
Nojiko waved one hand, and pushed the backpack behind Raavan with the other, and said to him: “Raavan, come on! You must learn swordplay with 10,000 percent effort!”
Raavan stopped at port, turned around, and bowed solemnly to Nojiko. Then, without hesitation, he turned around again and jumped onto the small fishing boat that just came slowly.
Nojiko watched the small fishing boat and the shadows of the two guys leaving, and shouted with all his efforts: “Goodbye!”
Nami and Raavan also replied, “Goodbye!”
…..
Partings and encounters are happening all the time in the world. Raavan believes that this parting is for a better encounter!
Raavan walked into the cabin, settled the large package on his body, returned to the deck, and leaned against the railing to blow the cool sea breeze with Nami.
Raavan looked at Nami and suddenly said, “Nami, thank you, really, really thank you!”
Nami glanced at Raavan and shook her head: “It’s okay. If I send someone else away, there may be risks, but no one will notice you leaving this dead person.
However, since you are going to sea, why not go to the navy to help?”
Raavan shook his head and whispered softly, “Nami, if you often read newspapers, you should know that there is an organization like Seven Warlord of the Sea in the world?”
Nami nodded, and asked in confusion.
Raavan continued: “The Seven Warlord of the Seas are seven pirate organizations that the world government allows them to carry out public plunder. Each of them has great strength, which makes them enough to run unimpeded on the Grand Line.
The fishman Arlong has a relationship with an organization in Shichibukai, and has a very close relationship.”
Nami fluttered in his mind the candidate of Shichibukai who she had seen in the newspaper, and suddenly opened her eyes and said, “You mean, that Jimbei?”
Raavan nodded and then said, “You and Arlong have been together for a long time. You should know that they have a red tattoo similar to the sun on them? If you remember what Jimbei looks like in the newspaper, think about it, he actually has that red tattoo like the sun!”
Nami frowned: “It does seem to exist. Wait, then what you mean is that if you really go to the navy, the navy may admit that Arlong plundering in Cocoyashi Village is reasonable?
What a joke, murder and arson are actually recognized by the government? Is it reasonable to grab money at will?”
Nami had never thought of this. In her heart, she always had only one belief, that is, earning 100 million Beri and redeeming Cocoyashi Village.
However, it now seemed that everything was not as simple as she thought.
Raavan said: “No, I didn’t mean that. Of course, the Navy would arrest them. I mean, even if they were caught by the Navy, because of the very peaceful relationship, they would be released without charge.
In other words, the reason why they will appear in the East Blue Sea is because the condition for Jimbei to become Shichibukai is … to release his former Fishmen companions.
There is naturally two, they can be released once and they can be released a second time.
So, I mean, if the Navy is notified, these fishmens will not bear any losses, and when they are released, what kind of horror will Cocoyashi Village and its surroundings village suffer?
Nami, you should be able to imagine it, right?”
Nami nodded gently, of course she knew what a tyrannical person would do in revenge!
But are they helpless?
Raavan added: “So, our initial goal must be determined, to kill all fishmens who were entrenched in Cocoyashi Village!
Don’t give them any chance to live or find a backing, and wipe out all of them between the flashes of light!”
Nami froze, slowly looking up at Raavan, who had just had bleeding from her forehead. She took a deep breath and said, “You’re right, we really have to set our goals.
It’s just … If you really succeed, killing all the fishmen. And later it will be known by Jimbei behind them, then?
With the extreme and tyrannical racist fishmen, how can our island bear it?”
Raavan nodded and said: “Your worry is very reasonable, and in the face of this possible tragedy, There is only one thing we can do!
We have to be stronger all the time, so no one in this world can dominate our destiny!”
Nami is silent. Everyone can say this kind of “beautiful words”, but there are only a handful of people who can really stand in those positions. Not everyone is the protagonist of the world. More often, they are like them. Mortals who follow the wave.
Raavan continued: “Nami, how about we make a bet? The bet is 200,000 Beri!”
“Bet?” Nami looked at Raavan in confusion. “What bet? No, don’t change the subject first. I haven’t asked yet, how did you know the relationship between Arlong and that Shichibukai?”
Raavan explained: “There are news in the newspaper. A few years ago, there was a report in the newspaper about a fish-man pirate group called the sun pirate group, and their logo was a red sun tattoo on them. I happened to notice that Shichibukai had the same tattoo on his chest.
Later, when … looking for Arlong duel a few days ago, I saw that he and Fishmen around him had tattoos of the sun. Therefore, I guess they will have something to do with each other.
Then, when being beaten up by a few fishmen, I used their nicknames for Jimbei from their mouths, and they called Jimbei as boss!
What kind of person would call another person the boss? I asked myself this way, So I came to the conclusion that the relationship between them is profound.”
“Is that so?” Nami still had doubts in her eyes. She remembered that Raavan was stupid before, so that she and Nojiko both bullied him for joy, and he did not avenge each time. After the trouble, everyone is still a good friend.
But … how can Raavan now suddenly change, as if … he grew up all at once.
When thinking of herself, Nami suddenly understood that the departure of a loved one and her own regret and remorse were enough to deal a blow to another person’s mental breakdown, but it was also enough to make another person’s spirit sublime and become the driving force for her efforts!
Thinking of this, Nami had some expectations for Raavan to learn the swordsmanship.
Maybe he can really become a famous figure!
Nami said, “What bet?”
Raavan took the 200,000 Beri seriously from his arms and pointed at it: “Bet me before you make 100 million Beri, I come back and cut all fishmen!”
Nami laughed, covering her right hand with Raavan’s right, squinting her eyes and saying, “Okay, I bet!”
At the current rate, it takes about two or three years to earn 100 million Beri. She believes that three years is enough for Raavan …
After talking with Nami about some previous events, Raavan was pushed back to the cabin by Nami and lay on the only bed.
His current condition is actually very bad, with multiple fractures on his body, torn muscles, and internal organs may rupture. This state may have died in the real world, but now Hercules card started to take effect.
As he thought, even golden finger don’t make you strongest directly. But it will provide lots of support. Like this Hercules card is sending some kind of energy in his body, which is recovering his damage.
