Chapter 630 Using Illusion
"I don't have any big dreams. I just want to take good care of my orange orchard, expand the planting scale, and reduce the burden on my family!"
Nuoqi Gao Nuonuo said that she was a few years older than Nami and could already understand many things. She knew the current situation of her family and knew that being able to survive was already good enough. She had no time to talk about dreams. She just wanted to grow up quickly to help share some of the family's chores and make life at home better. She was a filial and sensible child!
"Yes, very practical!"
Vic praised that in the original book, Nojigo had always lived in Cocosia Village and lived by the orange orchard. The orange orchard had a very important meaning to the two little girls, so Vic was not very surprised. Not everyone is the protagonist in the eyes of others, as long as she is her own protagonist, it is enough.
However, being in such a sea, one must have some means of self-protection. There are also many pirates in the East China Sea. In the original work, Aaron was stationed here, so other pirates did not dare to come. Now that Aaron is gone, there will definitely be other pirates coming to plunder, so Vic plans to teach Nojiko some physical skills and swordsmanship to give her some self-protection ability.
"It's my turn! It's my turn! My dream is to become a navigator, travel around the world, draw all the places I've been to, and then draw the first world map! Big brother! How about my dream?"
Compared to Nokigo, Nami is younger, more lively and innocent. After hearing Vic's evaluation of Nokigo, she eagerly expressed her dream and asked Vic to evaluate her dream. She had a sense of expectation to be recognized by her elders.
Although the time was advanced by three years, Nami had already established her dream. In order to realize her dream, she had been learning about navigation. Since her family had no money to buy books, she would go to the village bookstore to read. Sometimes she would even steal books home to read, and in the end it was Ajian who paid for it.
Judging from the memories in the original work, this kind of thing has happened more than once or twice. Nami, the bookstore owner and Ken have become accustomed to it. Obviously, this kind of thing has been going on for a long time, so it is not surprising that Nami has the dream of becoming a navigator during this period of time.
"Navigator! This profession is not bad, but the sea is not safe. There are many criminals like the pirates today. You have to learn some ways to protect yourself! Otherwise, you can't go to so many places."
Wick felt relieved after hearing what Nami said. As long as her dream did not change, it was good. However, a weak woman could not even go to the Grand Line, let alone leave the East China Sea. She could only wait for Luffy.
But even if she joins the Straw Hat Pirates, it won't work. The treatment of the protagonists is not ordinary. They will encounter trouble wherever they go. It's like they will be fought wherever they go. Nami will only be in greater danger. Even with the halo of the protagonist, she is always hurt. Among the weak trio, only Nami is really weak.
Wick has expectations for Nami. Apart from Luffy, the most likely ones to become a god in the Straw Hat Pirates are Zoro and Nami. Zoro might become a god by comprehending a certain law through kendo, but Nami has a stronger talent in celestial phenomena and climate, and the probability of her becoming a god is greater, so Wick wants to train her in advance.
"Big Brother! You are so powerful, why don't you stay here to protect us? Then we won't be afraid of bad guys anymore!"
Nami looked at Vic with hope. She saw with her own eyes that Vic was shot in the chest. Later, when Vic was holding her, she worriedly pulled open the clothes with holes and took a look. Apart from the blood on the clothes, there was no wound at all.
She was very confused at the time. She was clearly hit and bleeding, so how come there was no wound at all? Later, Bellmair told her that only very powerful people could do this, so with a strong person like Vic around, why should they become stronger?
This is the inherent thinking of human beings. When you have someone to rely on, you naturally don't want to work hard. Children are even more dependent. But it's really a bit of a social bully to let Vic stay after just knowing him for one day.
"Hahaha! I also have my own life and things to do. I just happened to meet you this time. I can't stay here forever. If you want to become stronger, I can stay here for a few more days. If not, I will leave here tomorrow. What do you think?"
Vic could have lived here forever. With the rich spiritual energy in the soul fruit, his cultivation speed would not be slow, but it would definitely be far behind Thundergod Island, and Nami would be turned into a greenhouse flower, which Vic did not want to see. It would be a pity if such a good talent was ruined because of personality problems.
"We want to get stronger!"
As if they were afraid that Victor would leave tomorrow, the two girls said in unison that although they had just met Victor, they liked Victor very much. Even if they had no interest in becoming stronger, they still wanted Victor to stay for a few days.
So Vic settled down in the Cocosia Village. He did not personally teach them how to become stronger. A few days was definitely not enough time for systematic teaching. Vic used illusion to pull the mother and her two daughters into the illusion.
In the illusion, one can experience longer periods of learning and systematic training. Reality and illusion are like two worlds with different time flows. Yes, Wick did not even let Bellmère go. She is an adult and has served in the navy. It is easier for her to accept many things. She is definitely growing faster than Nami and Noki. She is the one Wick chose to protect Cocosia and Nami.
Therefore, Bell-mère enjoyed the same treatment as Nami, and had a soul fruit every two days. As for Nokiko, it was just a side effect. As long as she persisted in training until adulthood, she would not become weak. So Vic did not give her any more soul fruits.
With the dual blessings of the illusion and the soul fruit, Bell-mère successfully awakened her Observation Haki. With her previous foundation as a navy, and with Vic constantly creating crisis scenes to stimulate her, and the improvement of her mental power, her Observation Haki naturally awakened.
With the combination of her Observation Haki and the gun, ordinary pirates are no match for her. What's more, this is the East China Sea. Moreover, in the illusion, Wick also taught her many ways to become stronger. She can continue to become stronger during the time when Nami grows up, and she can also supervise the training of Nami and Nojiko, so the safety of Cocosia Village is basically no problem.
Five or six days passed in reality, but nearly half a year passed in the dream. Bellmère learned this from Ajian after Vic left. During a conversation, he learned that only a few days had passed.
Bellmère had been taken to many places by Vic for training, and it was definitely not something that could be achieved in just a few days. However, he finally believed it after asking more people. Although Bellmère didn't know how Vic did it, he still felt extremely amazed!
Is this the power of a strong man? Can it actually affect the speed of time? They didn't know it was an illusion until Vic left, because it was too real and they didn't think of it that way. Several months of memory can't be faked!
