After enjoying a long-awaited period of pastoral life, Nami got up, ready to return to the ship to enjoy a delicious meal.
If she returned too late, being at the very end of the line wouldn't be as satisfying.
Just as Nami was thinking this and preparing to elementalize and leave,
a tender voice entered her ears through the mind-net electric waves.
It instantly caught Nami's attention.
"Sigh~ Still no letter from Daddy today!"
"Honestly, Daddy said he'd write to me!"
"It's already been over half a year, how come not a single one has arrived?"
"Did Mr. News Coo get the address wrong?"
"When will I finally be able to leave here~"
"Has my illness not gotten better? I really want to go out and sunbathe after so long!"
"Will Daddy come back for my tenth birthday?"
"I want to travel with Daddy, to Skypiea with its wonderful bell sounds!"
"Daddy… Bonney really misses you!"
The tender loli-girl voice gradually faded.
"Over there?"
Nami confirmed the direction.
Three seconds later,
Nami found the source of the girl's voice.
It was a peculiar church building with all its windows completely sealed off.
"How awful… To lock a lively girl in this dark, sunless church, what kind of perverted priest would do this?!"
Nami ground her silver teeth, making a subconscious judgment.
The next second,
"Hmm? Something's not right?"
Nami frowned.
She used Observation Haki to scan the buildings in front of the church.
Inside were burly men fully armed.
If it were just an ordinary girl, there would be no need for such strict security.
Out of curiosity and concern for the child, Nami decided to infiltrate.
Sizzle!
A flash of electricity.
The sealed doors and windows could not stop the lightning's intrusion.
In an instant, Nami entered the church and saw the girl playing with building blocks under the faint candlelight.
"Who are you?"
Bonney also noticed Nami's intrusion and immediately asked cautiously.
"Don't be afraid, I am Lightning Girl, and I'm here to help you!"
0 for flowers
Nami waved her hand.
"Lightning Girl?"
Bonney's big eyes rolled around.
Having lived in the church for so many years, she usually only saw familiar faces.
It was rare to meet an interesting stranger; although she wasn't sure if the other party was good or bad, Bonney decided to chat.
Of course...
If the other party had ill intentions, she wouldn't mind teaching them a lesson with her fists.
"I just heard you say you wanted to see your dad. If you can, tell me more details, and maybe I can help you find your dad!"
Nami sat down on the floor in front of Bonney.
"Really?"
Bonney's eyes lit up.
"My dad is the priest of this church..."
Bonney had barely spoken a sentence when Nami interrupted her.
"Wait, your dad is the priest? So he's the one who locked you in this dark place? Why do you want to see a dad like that!"
Nami asked with a look of disbelief.
"No, no, you misunderstood. My dad is the best dad in the world. The reason he sealed off the church is all to protect me, because I have a disease..."
Bonney spoke earnestly, immediately telling Nami all about her situation.
"I see. Then I misunderstood your dad. I'm sorry, Bonney!"
Nami said apologetically.
"It's okay, it's okay, Nami, you just didn't know the situation!"
Bonney waved her hand magnanimously.
"So, Bonney, where is your dad now? Maybe I can help you find him!"
Nami asked.
"I... I don't know where Dad is either. He hasn't been back for a long time, and there's no letter as he promised..."
Bonney couldn't help but look dejected.
Nami scratched her head, also at a loss.
After all, if his own daughter didn't know where her dad went, where was she supposed to look?
"How about I cure your illness first? You probably want to walk in the sunlight, right!"
After much thought, Nami decided to cure the illness first.
"Huh? Nami, are you a doctor?"
Bonney asked in surprise.
"No, but my captain is a very powerful person. He has a magical charm that can cure all diseases in the world. It's just a pity I didn't bring it, otherwise I could cure you on the spot!"
Nami said proudly.
"Magical charm? Is it real or fake?"
Bonney was clearly a bit skeptical.
"Seeing is believing. I'll go back and get the charm now!"
Nami didn't explain further, immediately elementalizing and leaving in a hurry.
However...
Before Nami could fly much further.
A sharp, cold laugh made her stop abruptly.
"Another letter? How many is this already? Sending ten letters every month, that's dozens by now, right? Is there really that much to write about? And addressed to Bonney... It's utterly boring!"
World Government CP8 agent Alpha sneered, tearing the letter from Kuma to Bonney into pieces.
Bang!
The church guard's door burst open with a flash of electricity.
"Who's there?"
Alpha and the other CP8 agents immediately became alert, their gazes simultaneously locking onto the girl wearing lightning sunglasses.
"So it's you! The one who intercepted all the letters Bonney's dad wrote to her. Truly... unforgivable!"
Nami's voice trembled, not from fear, but from anger.
...
...
At this moment.
Sobel Kingdom Port.
Never Empty Army bow.
Roland looked up towards the south of the kingdom.
"Looks like we'll need to prepare more for dinner!"
Roland smiled slightly, his biceps bulging.
He went all out, pulling up the giant creature he had been battling for half an hour.
