The sun was bright, the breeze gentle.
On the deck of the Azure Dragon.
In a beach chair, Stussy held Noro's head in her lap.
Noro lay comfortably, enjoying the sun and the softness behind his head.
At the same time, Noro's body was covered in slender, jade-like hands, as if blooming.
These hands were clearly divided, gently massaging various parts of Noro's body. (Not Little Noro.)
Olvia held her daughter Robin, glaring at Noro with a look of deep resentment.
It wasn't because Noro made her massage him. She had already given birth to his daughter; what was a massage?
What's more, ever since she ate the Hana Hana no Mi, Noro's development of the fruit had completely exceeded her imagination. They had played all sorts of embarrassing games together.
She glared at Noro because he showed her a Poneglyph for a moment, then put it away, not allowing her to study it.
He said he would let her see it again after seeing her performance for a few days.
Dog man!
He just knew how to use the Poneglyphs to dangle her addiction.
Noro's eldest son, Lei, was sitting in front of the ship's railing, extending his index finger to electrocute fish.
This little brat was also exceptionally gifted. At the age of one, in Stussy's Door-Door world, he had crawled over and gnawed on the Goro Goro no Mi.
At the time, due to his young age, he couldn't control the power of lightning, shocking Stussy and a group of maids so much that they didn't dare to hold him.
Helplessly, Noro had to order craftsmen to forge a Sea Prism Stone necklace for Lei to wear.
Later, Noro took Lei to the quarry, letting him practice on the miners.
After electrocuting countless miners into uselessness, Lei finally stopped leaking electricity and could even control the current to refresh the miners.
The old Burmese current's refreshing effect was good. Those miners were so energized by the electricity that their work efficiency was much faster than before.
For this, Noro arranged a position for Lei, paid him a salary, and even provided him with five insurances and one housing fund.
Electrocution was also very hard work every day.
Lei also earned his own milk money.
Although his mother had never given him any money, saying she would keep it for him until he grew up.
As the first new life in the Beasts Pirates, Lei had been pampered since childhood.
Every time Kaido saw Lei, his rough face would contort into a chrysanthemum, laughing in a cheap way, teasing Lei: "My big nephew."
Even King's cold face would unconsciously show a gentle smile when he saw Lei.
Queen would take out his newly invented gadgets, dangling them in front of Lei, making the little fellow giggle.
Lei himself was "electricity." These gadgets didn't need a power supply.
At this moment, Leia strode with her long legs, wearing high-heeled boots, towards Noro.
Englar Alaric, Raja, and Kru were stealthily hiding.
Englar Alaric looked at Leia, who was walking proudly towards Noro, asking curiously, "Guess if Leia can win this time?"
Raja couldn't help but roll his eyes, saying unhappily, "I say, old Englar, can you stop saying such foolish things? I don't even want to say I'm on the same pirate ship as you when I'm out."
Kru nodded in agreement. "Exactly. You should be asking, how many moves can Leia last against the vice-captain?"
Englar Alaric nodded repeatedly, trying to make up for it. "Right, right, right, that's what I meant."
Raja gave a cold answer. "One move, no more. If it's more than one move, the vice-captain is going easy."
Kru echoed, "I think so too."
Englar Alaric spread his hands, bored. "Then it's no fun. What's there to bet on?"
Raja shrugged, smiling. "If we can't bet, we don't bet. Aren't we here to watch the show?"
Kru grinned mischievously. "Exactly. Every time I see that aloof girl Leia being pinned to the ground by the vice-captain, I want to laugh."
Englar Alaric put his index finger to his mouth, making a shushing gesture. "Shh, stop arguing. Leia's reached the vice-captain."
Raja and Kru simultaneously complained, "You're the loudest!"
Noro lazily lifted his eyelids, glancing at Leia. "Challenging me again?"
Leia proudly tilted her small face. "That's right. I'll definitely defeat you today."
Noro yawned, slowly standing up. "Full of spirit. Come on."
Leia's hands transformed into wings. For others, hands turning into wings would be disadvantageous in battle.
But she was different. She specialized in kicking techniques, not relying on her hands for combat. Her wings could also increase her speed.
"Submit beneath the griffon vulture's long legs!"
Leia shouted, instantly transforming into an afterimage, charging towards Noro.
Snap!
Without any surprise, Leia was once again pinned directly to the deck by Noro.
Her beautiful face rubbed against the deck, Leia's legs kicking weakly.
"Damn it, why is the gap still so big!"
Noro smiled, releasing his grip. "Practice harder."
To be honest, this girl had made great progress under his tutelage, whether in speed, strength, or Armament Haki.
To put it bluntly, the current Leia could fight two of the Leia who had just arrived in Wano.
As for why she was still one-shotted, first, the gap between Leia and Noro was too large, and second, she wasn't the only one improving in this world.
Leia snorted arrogantly, patted her clothes, and turned to leave.
After two steps, Leia suddenly stopped, saying coldly, "Control yourself. I don't want to defeat a man with weak kidneys."
Stussy and Olvia were amused by Leia's words, pursing their lips, trying to hold back but failing, bursting into laughter.
The two women simply stopped pretending, shaking with laughter, their silvery laughter echoing on the deck.
And Leia, after speaking, didn't dare to linger, striding away as if fleeing for her life.
Only old Englar, Raja, and Kru, those three big fools, were still laughing and slapping each other's thighs, completely oblivious that Noro had already arrived in front of them.
Noro smiled at the three. "Funny, is it?"
The three immediately reined in their laughter, shaking their heads like rattles.
"Not funny, not funny."
…
"Ahhh, Vice-Captain, not the face!"
…
The three brothers endured a brutal beating from Noro, bruised and limping, they left this sorrowful place.
Noro clapped his hands in satisfaction, returning to his recliner, and closing his eyes comfortably, served by Stussy and Olvia.
Just as Kaido and Noro were both away on expedition, an uninvited guest arrived in Wano.
