"Don't think it's easy."

Liard reminded.

"The value of a chart is its accuracy and detail, and it takes a lot of effort to draw it."

"make a deal!

Just as Nami stretched out his palm, he suddenly thought of the possibility of failure.

"What if I don't do it?"

"Then even if my investment failed miserably this time, you need to compensate me for my losses."

"But I don't have any money. The gold coin was stolen by Nuoqigao just now.

Nami said reluctantly.

"You owe it," Eli Howard encouraged. "I think you can do it."

"make a deal."

Nami's little hand touched Li Howard's big finger.

"Your hands are so big!

Nami smiled happily and saluted the callus on Howard's palm.

"Hey? I thought you were a rich man and should have an easy life."

"Why is the cocoon in your hand thicker than Ah Jian?"

Li Howard knew that by "A Jian" she was referring to the village police officer Kensuke.

To Nami is like a father.

Eli Howard has the look of a successful man.

At the risk of being spit out 10,000 times by Nami in the future, he said.

"I also got money through my own efforts."

But in the eyes of little Nami at this time.

This rich big brother is really handsome.

"Let's go to the boat now!"

Nami couldn't wait to grab Li Howard's hand.

"You still have to speak to Bell-mère first."

Eli Howard knew that Bell-mère and Norgeco must be looking everywhere.

"They know they won't let me go! Let's go!

Nami ran towards the pier, holding Eli Howard's hand.

Can't wait to get on that big boat.

Eli Howard is towed by Nami onto the orange boat.

He waved to Kensuke and Guy Enns, meaning you go and report a letter.

The village police officer Kensuke could only watch Nami holding Li Howard's hand with a nervous expression and boarded the boat with a happy face.

He rushed towards the giant ship that was moored on the sea not far away.

Due to the deep draft, the two Thousand Sunny could not get close to the small pier in the village of Cocosia.

Supplies can only be transported by boat.

This is also one of the reasons why the oranges in Cocosia Village are not selling well.

If it had to be transported by land to the big port first, it was too late, and the chairs were broken.

On the boat, Nami's eyes were not enough.

So luxurious everywhere, never seen such a nice boat.

Marine's navigator was ordered to come on deck.

Seeing Li Howard asking such a small girl to draw a chart, he smiled knowingly.

The inspector is very caring, what will the girl's graffiti look like?

The navigator took Nafi into the map room, and the little girl's eyes began to shine.

Wow, it looks very classy.

Not only are all kinds of maps hanging on the walls, but also two drawing tables and all kinds of specimens and instruments.

The room is large and brightly lit.

And everything is neatly secured where it should be.

Nami has also been on some ships, but never seen such a formal map room!

"We have two draftsmen on board and a geologist, a meteorologist, and a botanist."

The navigator introduces Nami to the members of the map room.

Everyone is very happy, what a lovely little lady, and what is even more rare is that you are interested in maps.

Our "captain was a different kind of guy who had a lot of respect for academics."

All were full of praise and showed Nami the results of their work.

"The regions with detailed nautical maps are limited to developed countries, and they are all maps from a long time ago."

"Because of the great (agae) crustal changes that took place in ancient times, some places are still continuing."

"So even the nautical charts of those countries are not very reliable."

"Well, then I'm going to draw the newest nautical chart of the world!" Nami was overjoyed.

"Come and try, this lovely little lady.

The gracious draftsman gives Nami his desk and pulls out a new set of drafting tools.

"Since it is Lord Howard's order, then we will start with the usage of each drawing tool."

The draftsman proudly picked up a small round rod made of crystal glass and placed it on the thick drawing paper.

"You have a lot to learn, and you can only start mapping if you master these tools."

"Wow, that's interesting! That's how those curves were drawn."

Nami looked at the curve that became curved under the crystal rod, and as the crystal rod rolled.

The clear and even lines drawn by the drawing pen kept nodding.

"I want to learn, please!"

Seeing Nami's happy look, Litride felt as if something had melted in her heart.

Yes, this is what I want most.

No treasure, no power, is as meaningful as their smiles.

"I will always pursue your smile! And guard it.

Eli Howard silently left the room and ordered a banquet.

Sure enough, it didn't take long.

Guy Enns brought the village policeman Ah Jian along with Bell-mère and Nuoqigao.

"I want you to stay calm."

"I will never hurt Miss Nami, but, for the time being, I will not allow anyone to disturb her.

Eli Howard said solemnly.

"What right do you have to take my daughter!"

Bell-mère was anxious.

"Nami she, she is my daughter!"

"Mother's words should be able to understand her thoughts and respect her thoughts."

Eli Howard said sincerely.

"Bell-mère, calm down, please."

The crew around were stunned.

Not even a prisoner like Red Hair Pirates with a 2.2 billion reward.

There was no humility even in the face of Marshal Marine.

The Headquarters Inspector, Lord Howard, made such a sincere request to a few villagers.

It's so moving!

Bell-mère calmed down: "You, huh.. don't know what the hell is going on!"

But when they followed Eli Howard to the door of the map room.

He tiptoed his head out to see Nami, engrossed in learning to draw from the scholars.

Bell-mère froze.

So, point, so happy Nami, she'd never met.

In the captain's room, Bell-mère buried his face in the palm of his hand and fell into a deep tangle.

When Nokigao told her what Nami said, she was really sad.

If Nami said something like that back then, he wouldn't be able to resist hitting Nami, wouldn't he?

But after listening to Li Howard's explanation, Bell-mère, Noqigao and even the village policeman Ah Jian were surprised.

Is it possible to save the village of Cococia with a single map?

Especially from the mouth of a seven-year-old girl.

"That child, in fact, already knows to care about others!"

Ah Jian was moved to tears.

For the whole village of Cocosia Village, they are concerned about the mother and daughter three people every day.

It is the expectation of the whole village to see them work hard and live happily.

Unexpectedly, I began to receive a return from Nami so early.

Afterwards, Ah Jian took Noki Gao to the boat to play, leaving Bell-mère and Li Howard alone.

"I understand.

Bell-mère bowed his head to Eli Howard, clutching the corners of his clothes with both hands.

"But Nami is my daughter's and I will never give up on her.

"No matter how rich or powerful you are, I will not let you take her away from me!"

"You're so upset, not just because Nami is your daughter?"

Courtesy Howard pours Bell-mère a hot cup of black tea.

"Actually, Nuoqigao and Nami are your salvation, right?"

"At that time, you have lost the idea of ​​​​survival."

"If it hadn't been for Nokigao and Nami to show up in front of you."

Bell-mère's pupils suddenly shrank.

Yes, these two children are not only their own daughters, but also their own salvation.

She couldn't lose them no matter what.

"It's the answer you've always wanted to know because of some kind of unspeakable secret."

"I can tell you why I'm here."

Eli Howard swayed the red wine in his arms and dug out a bundle of books that had been prepared for a long time from the bookshelf.

"This is?"

Bell-mère looked at the contents of the book.

"Encyclopedia of the Sea Country", "Introduction to Meteorology", "Surveying", "One Hundred Thousand Whys", "Adventurer's Logbook"

"It's all books that are useful to Miss Nami."

Courtesy Howard Road.

"Before sailing, I bought it from Marine's library, with the latest annotations made by senior scholars.

"I'm not going to hide too much.

Courtesy Howard Road.

"Bell-mère, please believe that Miss Neffi is also a redemption for me!"

"At this point, I'm the same as you.

"It's completely unimaginable that you are Bell-mère, a thought blurted out.

"Are you Nami's biological father?!"

Eli Howard spit the wine out of his nose and spilled his glass.

"It is also,

Bell-mère reacted and laughed.

"In terms of age, it's still unlikely.

Six years ago, the inspector was still a child at that time. "

The truth "I'll tell you in 3 years.

Eli Howard took out a prepared envelope.

"Since you are unwilling to accept the money I give you, then take this well.

"It has to be very careful, very well tucked away, not opened.

Until "three years later, when the crisis of life and death came."

"The bad guy who really can't deal with it broke into your house."

"Don't just open it, it can save your life, just survive first."

"Just trust you for now." Bell-mère accepted, "then these books?"

"You take it back as Nami's birthday present. It is said that it was borrowed by a trustee and must be repaid after a year.

"Okay." Bell-mère accepted happily.

"It looks like Nami will stay here for a long time, I'll take this back first."

"When she gets back, tell her I'll have a good talk with her calmly.

"That would be great.

Courtesy Howard Road.

"I come here to collect oranges this time of year, and stop by to see Nami."

"You said it the other way around. You come to see Nami every year and pretend to collect oranges."

Bell-mère readily poked at Howard, who had already spoken out anyway.

Even if it's not Nami's biological father, maybe it's actually her brother?

Bell-mère guessed so secretly.
