Pirate Love System

A new interface of faint blue appeared, and as Nuo Xia's eyes moved downward, the words were like flowing water, gurgling in the silent summer night.

Ryoma's meditation notes did not disappoint Nuo Xia. Most of the contents were related to kendo.

Not only does it contain a large amount of Ryoma's insights into swordsmanship, but it also details the various difficulties he encountered on his way to becoming a great swordsman, as well as his journey through enlightenment.

Xia Nuo felt like he had found a treasure. After reading only one or two pages, he was completely addicted to it.

The only regret may be that the writing style has an ancient style from the Wano Kingdom hundreds of years ago, and there are also many Japanese songs and poems of unknown meaning mixed in. It is difficult to understand and is quite laborious to read.

"Although the content at the back is incomplete, even if you want to fully understand the previous things, it will take a lot of time, so you need to take your time..."

Nuo Xia was lying on the bed, staring at the contents of the document with deep eyes.

He is well aware that one bite cannot make him fat, but his foundation in swordsmanship is solid enough. With this "True Explanation of Swordsmanship", as long as he continues to train diligently, it is not difficult to make rapid progress in his swordsmanship.

The realm of swordsman is just around the corner.

"Come on."

Nuo Xia encouraged herself in her heart and continued to read attentively.

Nothing around him could affect him anymore. His mood fluctuated closely with the content of the text. Sometimes he frowned in thought, and sometimes he looked astonished and smiled happily.

Before I knew it, I had forgotten time.

Outside the courtyard.

The moonlight disappeared, and the night was as dark as ink.

…………

The next day.

When the genius started to shine, Nuo Xia got up early, washed up, and went out for a run around the outskirts of the village.

Then he conducted swordsmanship training for more than an hour in a secluded place using Peach Rabbit's sharp sword Kimpira. After practicing some of the sword skills he had learned last night, he returned to Zhizi's home.

He did not dare to practice in the small courtyard. Firstly, the space was small and he was afraid of affecting the carefully trimmed flowers and plants. Secondly, he was also worried that his swordsmanship was shallow and Major General Zhizi would see the flaws.

This was the second day after he arrived at Gur Island.

During this whole day, Nuo Xia played the role of Peach Rabbit perfectly, as if he really came to visit Major General Zhizi, accompanying the old lady to cut flowers and grass, and bask in the sun;

He also chatted and joked with Little Tina who was pestering him, and played some small games with her such as hide-and-seek and catching pirates.

The small courtyard is full of happy scenes, with laughter and laughter coming from time to time.

Nuo Xia is very patient when it comes to tasks.

In order to prevent the atmosphere from getting awkward again, he even gave up his plan to hit Major General Zhizi in the side, and instead changed his target to Tina, hoping to get some insights from this child who had been with Major General Zhizi day and night for three years.

There are clues about some things that happened back then.

Unfortunately, little Tina didn't know anything about it. For this beloved grandniece, the old lady seemed to rarely tell her the story of her time in the headquarters.

Even for Garp, Tina is just like other ordinary children in this world, knowing that this is a great naval hero who once personally defeated the pirate king Gol Roger, and no longer knows anything else.

This made Nuo Xia a little disappointed, but he was not impatient. When he had nothing to do, he silently opened the sword master Ryoma's enlightenment notes, and continued to read the contents of last night slowly.

At the end of the day, I read for five or six hours. I gained a lot of insights and made the progress of the book a lot further.

After dinner, the old lady went to the kitchen to wash dishes.

Nuo Xia couldn't help, and originally planned to go to the garden to find a place to sit down and continue reading, but he couldn't resist Tina's warm invitation, so he had to follow her and came to the little guy's room for the first time as a guest.

Plush dolls, dolls... These things are naturally indispensable in this cozy little room with a pink main theme. Tina is like a museum tour guide, happily introducing her collection to Nuo Xia one by one.

It's a pity that Nuo Xia is not a real Peach Rabbit after all. No matter how childlike he is, he still has no interest in these things.

While dealing with Tina perfunctorily, he looked at the closet in the room, and finally his eyes fell on a stack of photo frames stored in the corner.

This stack of photo frames was placed on the top floor of the closet. With Tina's height of 1.5 meters, she couldn't even reach it on her tiptoes, and it was covered with dust. It seemed to be old and didn't look like it belonged to Tina at all. .

Nuo Xia's heart moved, and she quickly went to the closet, took out the stack of photo frames, brushed off the dust on them, and then started from the first one and started to read through it carefully.

As he expected, the photo frames contained obviously old photos from many years ago, and there were a lot of group photos.

Major General Zhizi in it looks very young, with no wrinkles on her face. In most of the photos, she is nestled in the arms of a tall, unshaven man, holding a bouquet of roses in her hands, with a sweet and happy smile on her face.

This is...Major General Zhizi's husband?

Nuo Xia remembered that when he was still on the warship, Taotu mentioned to him that Major General Zhizi once had a very happy marriage, and his lover was a rose plantation owner from the South China Sea.

However, as early as more than 20 years ago, this plantation owner, who was just an ordinary person, died in the hands of pirates. In addition, the circles were different, even Taotu had never seen him, and he did not know the identity of this man. Name.

All I know is that Major General Zhizi had a deep relationship with him. Even though he failed to have any children after marriage, he remained a widow for the plantation owner and never married.

"If you don't have children..." Nuo Xia turned to the photos at the back and frowned, "Then who is this little girl?"

In the group photos at the bottom, in addition to Major General Zhizi and his wife embracing each other passionately, there is also a little girl with long flaxen hair. She is sandwiched between them and makes a "V" sign to the camera. Font gestures, sunny smile.

She was included in several group photos with different backgrounds and locations, so she was obviously not a passerby just joining in the fun.

"Gion-sister, what are you looking at?"

Tina also noticed his movements at this time and leaned over curiously. Unfortunately, the height difference was too big. No matter how hard she tried, she could only reach Nuo Xia's belly button.

Nuo Xia glanced at her, found a chair and sat down, pointed at the little girl in the photo, and asked softly: "Xiao Tina, do you know the little girl in the photo?"

"……do not know."

Tina looked at it carefully for a long time, and shook her head blankly at first, but soon seemed to remember something, her eyes lit up, and she said proudly, "This is the first time Tina has seen these photos, but it's easy to guess, this The little girl must be Mr. Portcas’ niece!”

"who?"

"Mr. Portkas is Grandma Zhizi's husband. I think I should call...well, what is it, uncle?"

Tina tilted her little head, and after thinking about it distressedly, she shook her head and gave up the idea of ​​figuring out the title.

"Anyway, Tina didn't get to meet her, but I heard Grandma Zhizi mention that before they got married, Mr. Portcas had a niece. Because her parents had passed away, she adopted her and took care of her as her biological daughter.

Several years."

"So this little girl is the niece who has been adopted for several years, right..."

Nuo Xia took a deep breath and realized that she seemed to have discovered something extraordinary by accident, "Xiao Tina, do you know the name of this little girl?"

"I can't remember clearly, Grandma Zhizi mentioned it once."

Tina grimaced and racked her brains for a long time before finally digging out the bit of information forgotten in the corner from the depths of her memory.

"Let Tina think about it, uh... it seems like her name is Luna or Lujiu?"

She scratched her hair, a little confused.
