Luffy Died When He Set Sail, And At The Beginning, I Become The Sun God?

Nokijiao wants to board the ship?

Luffy paused for a moment and asked in confusion, "Wait, how did you become homeless?"

"Don't you remember?" Nokijiao extended her arm and pointed to the distant bombardment area. "My house, it was blown up by you!"

Luffy: "......"

Indeed, they had a blast yesterday, and a few houses were indeed blown up.

"Haha, I'm not blaming you," Nokijiao smiled brightly. "If sacrificing my house can bring about these results, I would do this trade a hundred times."

"I'm sorry, I will find a way to help you rebuild a house and let the villagers help," Luffy thought for a moment and said.

Nokijiao shook her head and said softly, "The orange orchard is gone too."

Growing oranges was her source of income.

"That orchard belonged to Bellemere. When I was a child, she relied on that orchard to support me and Nami. Although life was sometimes difficult, we were really happy back then."

She showed a nostalgic expression and smiled, "Last night, I thought for a long time. Maybe this is also a good opportunity. I want to go out and see the world. Captain Luffy, can I join your ship? I can do anything, cooking, cleaning, I'm good at everything!"

She was very optimistic and cheerful.

Luffy smiled and nodded, "Welcome, Nokijiao. Nami will be very happy."

He naturally didn't mind, anyway, the Sunny was empty.

"We will set sail soon. Is there anything you need to prepare?"

"Thank you, I do need to make some preparations!"

Saying that, Nokijiao left happily.

Luffy watched her walk away and turned to Usopp, saying, "Go find Zoro and the others, we're getting ready to leave."

"They were drunk last night."

Usopp sighed and went to find Zoro and the others.

At this moment, the door of the hospital opened, and a village doctor walked out.

"Luffy-sama."

"Good morning, doctor. How is Kaya's condition?"

"I'm very sorry about this..."

The doctor apologized, saying that he was powerless to do anything about Kaya's condition, and he couldn't even determine what illness she had.

"Kaya-sama has been taking medication all along, so I prepared some according to the same ratio."

"How much is it?"

"How can I accept your money? You are our village's benefactor. If I take your money, the other villagers will tear down my hospital!"

The doctor repeatedly waved his hands, insisting on not taking money.

Luffy couldn't do anything about it, so he accepted this kindness.

He went into the hospital and brought Kaya back to the Sunny.

Shortly after,

Usopp returned with Zoro, Johnny, and Yosaku, while Nokijiao had somehow transplanted two orange trees and planted them on the platform at the stern of the Sunny.

"Luffy-sama."

Diluma and the other members of the 153rd Marine Branch came to bid farewell.

"Captain, our journey has come to an end, and we will stay in this village for a few days, waiting for the arrival of the 16th Branch. Please rest assured, we will never forget everything you have done!"

Luffy patted the other's shoulder and smiled, "Well then, goodbye, Captain."

"Yes! May you have smooth sailing and great fortune!"

After bidding farewell to the Marines, Luffy stepped onto the Sunny's deck.

At this moment, someone shouted,

"Luffy-sama, can... can I follow you? Can I follow you?"

Luffy was taken aback and turned to look. It was a young marine, looking at him with admiration and worship in his eyes.

"Don't you want to be a Marine anymore? Do you want to become a pirate with me?" Luffy found it interesting.

"In you, I see the justice I pursued when I was young. My hometown was once destroyed by pirates, but you are different! I want to follow you!" The young soldier expressed excitedly.

Then, three or five others echoed.

"I... I do too!"

"Luffy-sama, can I join your crew?"

Di Luma was also stunned, but instead of stopping them, he smiled as he watched this scene unfold.

Seeing several eager gazes fixed on him, Luffy shook his head.

"I'm not as righteous as you imagine. If Cocoyasi wasn't Nami's hometown, I wouldn't even come here. Young Marines... I hope you remember this moment and stay true to yourselves."

Being rejected, these few Marines were very disappointed, but they still rallied.

"Yes, we will remember your teachings!"

"Well then, goodbye."

The Sunny Go spread its sails and slowly sailed away from the shore. Behind it, the Merry Go followed suit.

On the shore, the villagers of Cocoyasi quickly ran over to bid farewell under the leadership of Officer A Jian.

"Luffy-sama!"

"Goodbye, Luffy-sama, have a safe journey!"

"Don't bully Nami too much, make sure to come back and visit!"

On the deck, Nami walked over to Luffy with a smile and shouted to the villagers, "Don't worry, I'll be with him."

"Nami...!? How did you get up there?" Officer A Jian was dumbfounded.

"Haha, goodbye everyone from Cocoyasi Village, I'm going on a journey~ A Jian, I'll leave Bellemere's gravestone to you."

Amidst the noisy farewell, the two sailboats gradually disappeared on the horizon.

...

Sunny Go, Nami's cabin.

Nami sat on the edge of the bed, supporting her chin with one hand, quietly watching her sleeping sister.

She took out a photo from her pocket and placed it on the bedside table.

In the photo, it was Bellemere and the two sisters.

A slight collision sound seemed to wake Nami up.

Nami's eyelids twitched, slowly opening her eyes.

"Nami?" She spoke softly in a daze.

"You're awake? You can really sleep, it's already noon. What mischief did you get up to last night?" Nami's sister, Nojiko, teased with a smile.

Last night...

Nami blinked her eyes, her face turning red as she suddenly remembered something and tried to sit up.

"Is it already noon?"

"Yes."

"Ah, I have to cook, Luffy must be starving."

Nojiko: "..."

She quickly pushed her sister back onto the bed and said impatiently, "When will you start caring about me like this?"

Saying that, she rolled up her sleeves and said, "I'll go cook, you rest well."

"Oh..."

Nami lay back in a daze, and only realized when Nojiko was about to leave the room.

"Wait, why are you here?!"

Nojiko turned around, revealing a tattoo on her right arm that was identical to the one on Nami's left arm.

It was an orange and a windmill.

"You idiot, of course I couldn't rest assured about you."
