Pirate: My partner is too crooked

Chapter 55 A town attacked by pirates (together)

The roar of the flood resounded through the eardrums. Lin Zhi, Bellemeier and others walked out of the house and came to the orange grove outside.

I saw that the flat land had been submerged by the water, and countless green leaves were floating on it.

The neatly planted orange trees were twisted and toppled, and some of the ones that were buried shallowly were even uprooted and allowed to be washed away by the running water.

It can be said that this orange grove is almost completely destroyed!
In the edge corner, Aqua stood there blankly, looking at the orange grove destroyed by the flood, scratching her head at a loss.

Next to them, Nami and Nuoqiu, who were all wet, looked even more confused. Even their sight was covered by their wet hair and they didn't even notice.

With their minds blank, they only had one thought at this time, that is, they might go to the village to pick up garbage in the future...

Seeing Lin Zhi, Bellemeier and others appearing, the confused Aqua became even more panicked. Her two aqua eyes turned left and right, looking at the distant mountains and forests, trying to reduce her sense of presence.

Little did he know that this would only make his guilty conscience more conspicuous.

"Stop pretending, Aqua. I know it was you. What happened?" Lin Zhi said with a critical strike.

Aqua was startled, looking at a messy orange grove, hesitantly explained: "The speed of irrigating each tree is really too slow, so I thought it would be better to just do it all at once. "

Thinking of the need to pay high compensation for destroying the orange grove, the impoverished Aqua couldn't hold back in an instant. She raised her head and cried loudly, "I didn't expect those orange trees to be so fragile. They all fell down. They all fell down." !”

In short, it was a lazy and showy stupid goddess who lost face in front of her little believers.

"With such a large orange grove, the compensation is estimated to be several hundred dollars. You are finished, Aqua. Just wait and grow oranges here for the rest of your life."

Lin Zhi decided to scare Aqua.

He originally wanted to use this method that did not hurt his self-esteem to compensate the Bellemere family enough money.

Even if you don't have this idea, if you lose a piece of orange grove, you will lose it. It doesn't matter.

The main thing is to let Aqua, who has to do something from time to time, have a long memory.

Although his intuition told him that this guy would definitely forget all about it in a few days, and everything would remain the same...

"Master Lin Zhi, please save me, please save me!"

Aqua completely threw away the dignity of the goddess without hesitation. With tears in her eyes, she pulled Lin Zhi's trouser legs pitifully.

"You are my partner, isn't that what it should be?" Lin Zhi patted Aqua on the shoulder with a smile.

"Woooo! Master Lin Zhi!"

Aqua, who was simple-minded, did not notice Lin Zhi's abnormality and was moved to tears.

She was like a piece of dog-skin plaster, sticking to Lin Zhi's body with exaggerated movements to express her inner gratitude.

Of course, the snot and tears covered Lin Zhi's body.

This stupid goddess...

Lin Zhi held his forehead with one hand and was speechless for a while.

I don’t know what kind of body structure this guy has. He can obviously turn all the liquids he touches into pure water, but things like snot can’t be purified?
After all, after finally getting Aqua off his body, Lin Zhi turned around and looked at Bellemere, who was still in a dazed state.

"I'm sorry, Miss Bellemere, to bring such loss to your orange grove."

"We will take responsibility for the specific amount of compensation required."

Bellemeier looked at the flooded orange grove with a headache. To be honest, she had a very good impression of Lin Zhi and the others. She never thought that an ordinary business would evolve into this situation.

In the end, after guard Ajian's comprehensive statistics, Lin Zhi needed to pay Bellemere a total of [-] Baileys in compensation.

In order to express his sincere "apology", Lin Zhi took the initiative to make up for it and increased it from [-] Baileys to [-] Baileys.

The amount of the increase was not large, and the reason was quite reasonable, but it made the keen Bellmeier realize that something was wrong.

"Mr. Lin Zhi, you should have known for a long time that Miss Aqua would destroy the orange grove just to lose money?"

In the wooden house, Bellemeier, who was holding a cigarette in his mouth, blew out a smoke ring and stared intently at Lin Zhi, who was sitting opposite.

Guard Ajian hurried back to the village after receiving an emergency call.

King, who has never been good at socializing with others, returned to the Wireless Dream alone early to play games.

As for Aqua, Nami and Nokia, they carried baskets on their backs and grabbed oranges in the orange grove to make up for the losses as much as possible.

"Sure enough, it's still too obvious..." Lin Zhiqian laughed, indirectly admitting this fact.

After receiving a positive answer, Bellmeier was silent for a few seconds and sighed heavily.

"Actually, you don't need to take too much care of my emotions. As long as Nami and Nokigao can live happily, it doesn't matter what happens to me."

"Miss Aqua, too. In order not to make me suspicious, she deliberately pretended to be in trouble accidentally."

Hearing this, Lin Zhi quickly spoke up to help Aqua clarify: "You have misunderstood this. That guy was acting normally and was not pretending at all."

"Ah, really?" Bellemeier was surprised.

Using astonishingly powerful floods to irrigate orange groves, not to mention that normal people would not think so at all. Even Nami, who was still a child, knew that the disadvantages of doing so far outweighed the benefits, right?

Thinking of this, Bellemeier took the cigarette out of his mouth and pressed it hard into the ashtray in front of him. His expression when looking at Lin Zhi gradually became serious, "From the time you walked in, your eyes would fall on Nami from time to time. On the body."

"Mr. Lin Zhi, do you know Nami?"

Someone who can do business in a sea where pirates are raging is definitely not a good person with overflowing sympathy. She and Lin Zhi have never met each other before, and the latter has no reason to do this.

Combining the details captured in the previous contact, Bellemare quickly understood the reason.

"As expected of an excellent sailor..."

Looking at the other party's firm eyes, after being briefly stunned, Lin Zhi couldn't help but sigh.

Bellemere in the original work was rude and reckless, and even admitted that her ability to deal with troubles was not as good as that of her eldest daughter Noki.

But now it seems that she is actually not that careless.

At least, that's not the case when it comes to Nami and Nokigao.

"To be honest, Nami is very similar to a friend I know. She also has bright orange hair and is a very good and violent navigator." Lin Zhi made an excuse casually.

"A violent and excellent navigator?" Bellemere held his chin with one hand, and unconsciously pictured Nami's furious appearance in front of his eyes, and chuckled, "That's really similar!"

"When I came here, I already told Nami that after the business is done, there will be new clothes to wear."

Now that everything has been said, there is no need to hide it. Lin Zhi said directly, "So the compensation for Orange Grove will be based on my psychological expectations, which is 20 Baileys."

Seeing that Bellemere was about to speak, he jumped in and said, "In addition to new clothes, the remaining money will be used to buy some books and other things for Nami and Nokigao. This is not a charity, but an investment. Maybe in the future my sea life will be better." The restaurant still needs their help!"

Having said this, Bellemere really couldn't think of a reason to refuse.

"There is really no other way, so I will accept your kindness for Nami, Nokigao and the others!"

The sunlight outside the house shone on Bellemeier's side face with a bright smile.

As mentioned before, as long as Nami and Nokigao can be happy, even if she puts down her dignity and accepts Lin Zhi's kindness, what's the problem?

Lin Zhi, who was sitting on the sofa, also had a smile on his face. It was a great pleasure to be able to witness and bring happiness to the Bellemere family as a participant.

Especially knowing that they will experience a tragic separation and death in the original work!
If you encounter the Arlong Pirates in the Grand Channel in the future, if you have the chance, just deal with them easily.

He thought so in his heart.

"Lin Zhi! Lin Zhi! It's not good!"

At this moment, Aqua, who was supposed to be picking oranges in the orange grove, ran in from outside in a panic.

The aqua blue pupils showed an extremely anxious look.

"What's wrong, Aqua?" Lin Zhi frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

Although Aqua always behaves in a panic after getting into trouble, she is not as serious as she is now.

"Just now, I felt the believers calling for help from deep in their hearts, not far from here!"

Aqua's pretty and lovely face was full of worry, "The devout believers who believe in the goddess of water are suffering right now. Lin Zhi, let's go and save them quickly!"

Hearing this, the doubts in Lin Zhi's eyes became even more intense.

A cry for help from an Axis cultist not far from here?
Why didn't he notice anything unusual around him?
"Aqua, isn't this your imagination?"

Although the residents of Windmill Village and Orange Town are already members of the Axis Cult, Lin Zhi does not feel that their beliefs are strong enough to affect Aqua.

Of these two places, the most loyal one is probably the simple-minded Luffy.

But what danger could Luffy be in?
Is it...

Those slaves saved from pirates before?

"Impossible, this emotion is very strong, and it is definitely not an illusion like the breasts made by Eris (Aqua's descendant of the goddess)!" Aqua firmly believed in her feelings.

Just at this time, Ajian, who had left for something earlier, returned, bringing a rather urgent news.

"Bellemeier, and Mr. Lin Zhi, we just received the news that pirates attacked the town of Forth on the other side of the mountain, and now Captain Moss of the Navy branch is fighting them."

"Although the possibility is not high, in order to prevent the pirates from escaping to Cocoa West Village, we must keep an eye on Nami and Noki and don't go out for the time being!"

Naval Branch, Captain Moss?
The familiar name made Lin Zhi's pupils shrink slightly.

A few days ago, he happened to read news about this branch general from a newspaper in the East China Sea. It was said that Captain Crowe had defeated the Black Cat Pirates head-on and successfully protected the lives and property of the residents...

and many more!

Thinking of the Black Cat Pirates who had a conflict with them yesterday and happened to be operating in this sea area now, Lin Zhi's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.

"Mr. Taken, may I ask if the people attacking Forth Town are called the Black Cat Pirates?"

"I'm not sure, but it's said that the pirate captain is extremely ferocious. He has five sharp blades in each hand. He's even scarier than a monster!" Jian pondered.

"That's right! It's that bastard with glasses. They must have attacked the town where the Axis cultists are!" Aqua said angrily.

Hearing that they seemed to be having trouble with pirates, Bellmere couldn't help but feel worried: "Aqua, do you know the Black Cat Pirates?"

As a former sailor, she is relatively familiar with the famous pirate group in the East China Sea.

Captain Crowe, who is good at assassination skills and conspiracy, is not a simple character!

"That's right. On the way here, I just collected more than 200 million yuan from them for meals." Lin Zhiyi pointed out.

"Two, two million?!" Nami and Nokigao, who were standing nearby the whole time, couldn't help but exclaimed.

Bailey and the others had only heard of this amount in books!

It turns out that you can make so much money by opening a restaurant on the sea...

The eyes of the two ignorant little girls were full of longing.

Bellmere was stunned for a few seconds and sighed: "So that's it. I'm just saying that you are not like ordinary businessmen."

"Without further ado, Lin Zhi, let's go over there and have a look!" Aqua urged anxiously.

Simply speaking from the level of concern for believers, this girl has fulfilled her duties as a goddess very well.

Thinking of the influence of devout believers on the recovery of Aqua's divine power, he also learned from Ajian that Firth Town was a town with a large population, and could use this to develop more believers.

If you're lucky, you might be able to win Captain Crow's high bounty.

After considering the pros and cons, Lin Zhi finally decided to agree to Aqua's request and go to Forth Town!
Although there is only a mountain between Foss Town and Cocoyasi Village, the mountain road is rugged and steep, full of thorns, and many wild beasts are lurking in it. Even if there are villagers who are familiar with the road to lead the way, it will take a long time.

What's more, no villagers are willing to take the initiative to run to a town that is being attacked by pirates!
Therefore, Lin Zhi decisively abandoned the mountain road full of uncertainties, and instead set sail from the coast of Cocoa West Village, sailed along the coastline of Zhumeida Island, and landed at the port of Fors Town.

About 10 minutes later, the Infinite Dream rode the wave and arrived at the port of Forth Town.

Coincidentally, the navy warship docked at the port happened to set sail and passed by the Infinite Dream.

The sailors on the warship loudly shouted the name of the crusade against the Black Cat Pirates. A naval general wearing a cloak of justice stood on the bow of the ship, with his hands folded and a slender sword hanging behind him.

Even if it was only a few fleeting seconds, Lin Zhi recognized the identity of the other party.

Yes, it was the Colonel Moss who appeared in the newspaper!
