The two merely chuckled and rubbed their heads with a simple, foolish expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Gao Wen gave up on scolding them and ordered:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ve rested long enough. It’s time to act. Go find Keluo and Ajin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two responded and hurriedly pushed open Gao Wen’s door and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two slender figures, one tall and one short, walked side by side into the main hall of Parra Island. Both were covered in sweat, clearly having just finished training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keluo hadn’t even removed the claw knives from his hands, his face marked with irritation at being interrupted:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gao Wen, what’s so urgent?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Wen, mindful of Keluo’s daily contributions of experience, ignored his tone and cut straight to the point:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You… we need to reclaim the treasure that was stolen from us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our current ship’s structure can’t handle the harsh weather of the Grand Line. To build a sturdy pirate ship, money is essential.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keluo nodded and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where’s the target?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Wen took out a map of the East Blue from the table beside him, searched for a moment, then pointed to an island:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ajin studied it closely, then frowned:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I remember correctly, this island and dozens of nearby villages are all under the control of Fishman A Long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are rumors in the East Blue that he’s a Fishman who came from the Grand Line. He won’t be easy to deal with.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hah.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keluo sneered:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In the East Blue, we have no rivals!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Wen glanced at Keluo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A memory suddenly surfaced in his mind: an old man over seventy, terrifyingly strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He muttered under his breath:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Didn’t Garp leave the East Blue after handing Luffy and the others over to Dadan?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I hope I’m not mistaken.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keluo asked, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Wen shook his head:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nothing. Unless something unexpected happens, there’s no pirate crew in the East Blue that can match us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Krieg can’t. A Long can’t either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Besides, this time our target isn’t just treasure. There’s also a navigator in Cocoyasi—one of the best in the entire world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keluo’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crew’s navigator had recovered from his injuries, but Keluo knew his skill level—barely adequate for East Blue navigation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take him to the Grand Line, and he’d be asking for death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The previous incident had made him realize just how vital a skilled navigator was to a pirate crew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Wen smiled faintly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ll find out when we find him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hah. Acting mysterious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keluo’s lips twitched and fell silent. Ajin had no objections to Gao Wen’s decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, his official role was combat captain; strategic decisions were typically left to the captain, first mate, and navigator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three finalized their plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They set out the next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small pirate ship, loaded with enough supplies to last half a month, slowly sailed toward the open sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Gao Wen brought only about twenty crew members, whose sole task was to maintain the ship’s normal operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In actual combat, too many men would be a burden rather than an advantage for Gao Wen and his two companions—better to keep the team lean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pirate ship sailed steadily toward Cocoyasi, gradually vanishing beyond the horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>East Blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cocoyasi Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the village’s edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami stood beneath an orange tree, staring at the buried treasure in the pit, slowly counting its value with her fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she calculated, the brighter her eyes became, a radiant smile spreading across her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even at the East Blue’s lowest exchange rate, this treasure is worth over 100 million Berries—enough to buy back the village.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had once been far from her goal, but this haul with Kalina had exceeded all expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she had endured countless dangers, even nearly dying at pirate blades several times,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the treasure before her, Nami felt every sacrifice had been worth it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for the pirates who lost their treasure? Too bad. These items were mostly stolen from other islands anyway.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the villagers won’t have to serve A Long anymore, won’t have to pay ten thousand Berries every month as protection money, Jian won’t have to risk his life protecting everyone, and Nokigao…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tears slid down Nami’s face, falling to the ground and soaking into the soil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami wiped her tears, carefully reburying the treasure, even covering it with leaves to disguise it, then turned and left with quiet caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She noticed nothing of the Fishmen occasionally surfacing from the water nearby, their eyes filled with mockery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami burst open the door to the top floor of A Long's Amusement Park.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Long was inside, discussing recent matters with Rat, when he saw a familiar face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rat glanced at Nami, then turned to A Long and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s settle it then. I won’t disturb you further.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Long nodded, ignoring Nami’s entrance, and turned to Little Eight:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little Eight, see our friend out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The octopus Fishman Little Eight grinned foolishly, waved goodbye to Rat, and led him away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Long finally turned his attention to Nami, a sly smile curling his lips, revealing sharp shark-like teeth:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If it isn’t our navigator? Feeling so confident—did you finally save up enough to buy back the village?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami stared fiercely at A Long:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m buying back Cocoyasi—from you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as you have the money, everything’s negotiable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Long’s eyes flickered with amusement, then followed Nami to the edge of Cocoyasi Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He watched as she dug up her hidden treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even at the East Blue’s lowest price, this treasure is worth over 100 million Berries!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami slowly opened her treasure chest before everyone’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Long glanced at him, his expression turning cold:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you mocking me?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1102,"2026-06-20T23:03:52.332Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","57b916a126a2c5f172621516a7fbc81722b264dc4435e2933148d0166719cf31","if-you-don-t-try-hard-how-can-i-become-pirate-ki-chapter-47","if-you-don-t-try-hard-how-can-i-become-pirate-ki-chapter-45",469,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fif-you-don-t-try-hard-how-can-i-become-pirate-ki-cover.jpg"]
