Pirates: Beginning with the Patrolman.

"Did I go too far just now? Is Smoker angry?"

At the same time, on the Pioneer, Nami reacted belatedly and asked with some concern.

Remos glanced at her sideways. He didn't believe that Nami had never thought about this problem before.

It was obvious that she was venting the resentment that had accumulated over the years.

The evil dragon committed evil in the village of Kokoyasi, and Colonel Mouse and other navy officers became accomplices.

Smoker is nominally on the same level as Rat, and both have the rank of colonel.

But considering his status as a colonel in the headquarters, he was no joke when he said he was a senior official, so in his daily work, he actually had certain command authority and jurisdiction.

Therefore, he has to bear the blame for the failure of supervision for what happened in Kokoyasi Village.

The reason I didn't retaliate before was simply because Nami didn't have the strength.

Remos was well aware of her little thoughts, so he didn't say much.

"Smoker is not a stingy person, but this one time is enough. Don't do this again next time, understand?"

Smoker is a navy colonel after all, and a step further up is a major general. He has to save face too, and anyone would be unable to tolerate this.

"Don't worry, I won't do that next time."

Nami stuck out her tongue and said embarrassedly.

"Then, next..."

Remos looked forward and was about to wave his hand.

"That, that..."

Mei's voice suddenly rang out.

"What's wrong? Mei, what do you want to say?"

Remus immediately turned to look at her.

"Are we, are we planning on returning to the Grand Line?"

May asked in a low voice.

"Of course, we are just here for vacation, not to live here permanently. What's the matter, Mei? Are you scared? If you are scared, just tell me. My arms will always be open to you."

Nami jumped out and hugged Mei.

"No, don't make trouble."

Mei struggled a few times with a red face, but failed to break free, so she had to give up and looked at Remos.

"But, can we go to the South China Sea first?"

she asked cautiously.

"Can I know your specific idea? Why do you want to go to the South China Sea?"

Remos looked at her seriously, and Nami stopped harassing her and stared at Mei carefully.

"I, I want to find my father..."

May whispered.

It was a little secret of hers, one she had never told before, and it was about her father.

When she was fighting with her grandfather before, in order to provoke her, her grandfather deliberately described her father as a useless person who didn't deserve to die in the open.

"...Actually, that's not the case. Everyone in the village says that my father is very powerful, a very strong swordsman... He went out to sea at the invitation of a friend, saying that he wanted to defeat a common enemy, but he never came back..."

Mei was very young at that time, only a little over two years old, and she couldn't remember anything, so all her impressions of her father came from her grandfather and the villagers.

Originally, she had no plan to look for her father, but she didn't expect that Remos and Nami could actually find another way and leave the Grand Line in a relatively safe way, so she became interested.

"I want to know what happened to him later. Also, part of the family swordsmanship is in my father's hands. I want to take it back... If it's inconvenient, forget it! I don't have to look for it!"

After saying that, Mei quickly waved her hands to show that she was not forcing Remos and Nami.

Remos and Nami smiled at each other.

"You, we are already companions, why do we have to be so cautious? Do you think we are such unreasonable people?"

Nami turned Mei's face and spoke in a serious tone.

"I, I just don't want to embarrass you..."

May whispered.

"There is no difficulty, Mei. Remember, your business is our business. Let alone something as important as finding your father and swordsmanship, even if it is a trivial matter, we will do our best to help you. This is the meaning of companionship."

Remus said with a smile.

"Yes, you keep saying you are the elder sister, but in my opinion, huh, huh, you are totally unqualified!"

Nami said with a grin as she hugged Mei.

"But I am older than you, so I am your elder sister..."

"Same age, a few months difference doesn't count!"

"Well--"

Mei never knew how to resist Nami's little willfulness.

"Then do you know your father's exact location? Or a direction would be fine."

Remus asked from the side.

The South China Sea is very large, not smaller than the East China Sea. If you want to find someone in such a large sea area, what is the difference between that and looking for a needle in a haystack? Even if you know the name, it will be difficult. After all, according to Mei, her father is likely to have passed away.

So it would be best to have more important information, and it would be best if we could directly lock onto a certain area.

"I, I've heard the name of Starry Island from my grandfather. The person who invited him back then was from that Starry Island..."

Finally there is some relatively reliable information.

"It's easy if we have a specific place name. We can go there and ask the locals. It's decided then. Next stop is Nanhai!"

Remus waved his hand.

"Oh! Let's go to the South China Sea!"

Nami cheered.

Her dream is to draw a nautical chart of the entire world, not just the Grand Route, but the entire world, including all four seas.

The East China Sea was easy, as she had basically mapped it out in the past few years. Except for a few marginal areas that she had not yet visited, she had recorded 90% of the sea conditions in the entire East China Sea.

She was worried before about when she could go to other sea areas, but she didn't expect that this opportunity would come so soon.

And now everyone can enter and exit the Grand Route at will. Doesn't that mean that in the future both the North Sea and the West Sea can be completely mapped?

Nami became excited at the thought that her dream was about to be halfway achieved, and she even became more motivated to drive the boat.

Soon, the Pioneer arrived at the entrance of Mount Levis.

They still chose the original route and followed the rising current all the way to the top of Mount Levis, but this time they did not turn around and enter the Grand Line. Instead, Nami created clouds to control the ship, which turned around and fell towards the South China Sea.

The Kaituo did not fall directly into the waterway, but was carried by the clouds and glided into the South China Sea from the air.

During this time, a ship happened to come up along the entrance to the South China Sea. When the crew on it saw the Pioneer, their jaws dropped in shock.

Unfortunately, before they could take a closer look, the two sides passed each other, and the Pioneer finally landed steadily on the surface of the South China Sea.
