Pirate: My partner is so strong?

"Why don't you take a shower and change your clothes? You stink so much that I almost vomited staying next to you. How did you manage to endure the stench and eat? You're such a cruel person." Cui Ke complained while taking out a set of clothes.

"You stink so much that you can't even get warm food when you beg. People who want to give you food are driven away by your smell." Trick mocked Nino's begging skills.

In my previous life, I have seen those professional beggars who made a lot of money. They all have experience that it can look shabby, but it cannot be really dirty or smelly, so that people will be happy to give them money.

"I'm not a beggar! I feed myself by picking up things with my hands. This is the first time I take other people's food, and I have to find out the whereabouts of that person for you. This is the payment for my labor." Nino rolled his eyes.

I thought, "How come this big brother knows so much about these things? Was he a beggar before? He relies on magic tricks to beg for food, how pitiful!"

"It seems that I should thank you for giving me face!" Cui Ke didn't know that the boy was feeling sorry for him, and joked with a smile.

"It smells so good, I can't help it!" Nino said perfunctorily. In fact, the reason was that he observed Trek's actions and judged that Trek was a smart and good person, and seemed to have a mission. He wanted to seize this opportunity to change his destiny.

Nino didn't take a shower or change his clothes immediately. He just took out a smelly salted fish from his pocket and threw it away, and the stench on his body was slightly alleviated.

"You really have a bad taste. This thing is inedible even if it is salted fish. Do you want to eat salted fish with your meal?" When Cui Ke saw the salted fish that was about to rot, he realized why this guy smelled so bad.

"..." Nino rolled his eyes again, but did not explain. He must have his purpose for releasing a stinky salted fish.

"Have you been here since you were a child? Where are your parents?" Cui Ke felt that this boy was very smart and didn't look like he grew up in such a garbage dump. Looking at other children, the difference was very obvious.

Especially this guy looked stupid at first, but turned out to be quite smart.

"..." Nino glanced at Trek and thought, "Is there anyone who exposes someone's scars like this?"

Fortunately, Nino knew that this Hulk was a bit straight and had no ill intentions, so he told the story in a leisurely manner.

An ordinary but sad story. Nino's mother was a resident of the Kingdom of Goa. After his mother passed away, his house was taken away by creditors because of the high medical bills borrowed, and he wandered outside.

As for his father, he had never seen him and his mother had never mentioned him. He had been sensible since he was young, and it was already difficult for his mother to raise him, so he did not ask his mother who his father was like other single-parent families. If he wanted to say it, he would naturally say it, but if he did not say it, he had his own reasons.

After getting to know each other for the past two days, Trek and Nino have become very close. Trek not only cooks a lot of delicious food for him, but also teaches him some simple breathing techniques.

It's not that he doesn't want to train this kid, he's just too thin due to long-term malnutrition. Cui Ke also took out a [Taoism Gachapon] to enchant him, but it had no effect at all.

So he enchanted two more, but found that they were useless, so he gave up. Trek guessed that it might be because he traveled to the past, and the system had not been loaded at that time, so a BUG occurred.

Nino also let down his guard against Trick. Even though he had called him "big brother" before, it would take a lot of caution to grow up in a place like this.

Trek also noticed the changes in Nino, especially the boy behind him who was as happy as a child, although he was indeed a child.

He always likes to stick with me and doesn't throw away his tattered clothes, but instead changes them into new clothes that I give him.

The reason Nino gave was that it would be convenient to get information. If you put on clean clothes and keep yourself tidy, those people at the uncertain terminal would either avoid you or covet you.

Cui Ke thought about it and didn't make a fuss about it, but he would wash his hands every time after rubbing the little guy's head.

After searching for several days without finding the person, Trek gave up and asked Nino to continue looking. He also told Nino to tell Makino when he found the person and not to marry a pirate in the future.

"Don't marry a pirate? Is it necessary to say that? Who is crazy enough to marry a pirate? And who is Makino to Big Brother?" Nino complained.

"It's easy to become a widow if you marry a pirate. Children shouldn't ask about adults' affairs." Cui Ke didn't know how to explain, so he could only say it perfunctorily.

"I understand! Brother Hulk, I will definitely help you find the girl named Makino." Nino patted his chest and promised solemnly.

Trick said goodbye to Nino, but still felt a little worried, so he killed all the vicious bandits and pirates nearby. During this time, he also met the bandit Kali Dadan and his gang, Luffy's adoptive mother.

Trek gave them some treasures and told them to protect a woman named Makino in Windmill Village, then left.

Kali Dadan was very confused. This was the first time that someone came to her and voluntarily paid protection fees. Moreover, the amount was not small, enough to almost support her for the rest of her life.

"Makino? Is she this boy's woman or sister?"

"It's such a sin that these guys have to abandon their homes and careers to venture out on the sea during the Great Pirate Era! That guy Garp will have a lot to do now." Kali Dadan sighed.

Riding on the Millennium Dragon, Trek left the Kingdom of Goa and planned to go to the New World to find Kozuki, hoping to use her to return to the future.

The timeline was a bit tight, as Trek wasn't sure when in the year Toki's death occurred.

On the other side, Nino kept his promise. In order to fulfill his promise, he took the money given by Trek and went to Windmill Village to open a tavern.

Because Windmill Village is a port village, it is well-informed and drinkers are a good source of information.

Whenever Nino met someone, he always liked to ask if they knew a girl named Makino, who had dark green hair and was about the same age as him.

Most of the customers answered that they didn't know him, thinking, "Is he looking for his lost sister? How pitiful!"

Nino asked so many questions that when people mentioned him, they all thought of his name Makino. Instead, they didn't know his real name was Nino because Nino didn't specifically mention his own name.

So the guests and villagers all called him Nino Makino.

Nino wanted to correct it, but then he thought that if the real Makino heard that there was someone with the same name as her, she would definitely be curious and come over to take a look, so he just accepted the name.

After washing off the dirt, Nino was not used to having a bare head, so he kept his habit as a wanderer and continued to wear a headscarf.

After washing, the dirty "black" hair glowed green, and the hedgehog head slowly grew into long hair.

Nino usually used the money he earned to buy a lot of food and secretly distributed it to the children at the Uncertain Terminal, and he also made clothes for them.

Everyone praised him, but these children didn't know that this beautiful girl was the dirty and smelly Nino from the past.

Yes, it’s her, not him, Nino is a girl!
