The sudden outburst of the woman in front of him made Lo Chen somewhat at a loss.
"I …"
His lips trembled as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
The quiet wooden house fell into silence, only the sound of Young Lord's crying could be heard.
Gradually, the person in his arms cried more and more sadly. Lo Chen didn't even know why she was crying, and the answer was probably unknown to her as well.
There was no answer, no rejection.
Just like that, ten minutes passed quietly. The little mistress suddenly raised her head and wiped away her tears.
"Thank you, Lo Chen, for letting me vent here."
After the weak woman finished speaking, she stood up abruptly and left with a strong will.
Her back gradually disappeared in front of his eyes. Lo Chen was speechless for a long time, and finally sighed.
"I, what should I say?"
Did he like it? Yes, he liked it! But why was it so difficult to say it out loud?
He glanced around, and Roger's smile appeared in his eyes.
"Old man, I've made a fool of myself in front of you!"
With a press of his right hand, the picture frame was pressed on the wooden table.
After quietly pondering for a while, Luo Chen cleared his mind and got up to pack up the things in the small wooden house. He then carried a small bag and walked out of the door.
"I don't know when I'll be back."
Lo Chen took away all the photos, toys from his childhood, and memorable items.
After closing the wooden door, Lo Chen turned around and was about to leave.
"Why don't you accept her?"
Another woman's voice suddenly sounded. When Lo Chen turned around and saw it, he smiled bitterly.
"You heard everything just now?"
"Yes, I heard everything."
Nalin said softly with a smile in her eyes.
"Maybe it's not the right time."
With a sigh, Lo Chen stepped away.
"Is not the right time an answer?"
Nalin was stunned.
No one answered her again. Lo Chen was already far away.
In the evening, when everyone returned to the ship, Lo Chen noticed that Young Lord had returned to normal. When facing him, she could still smile happily and talk loudly. She was still the proud Young Lord, but deep in her eyes, there seemed to be something more.
Luo Chen could clearly sense these things, and he was momentarily at a loss. Fortunately, she didn't give him too much pressure.
Some things would naturally happen when the time was right.
Lo Chen also asked about Jinx, Izé, and their parents. When he learned that they had gone to sea, he was a little surprised. But then he laughed out loud. Imagining how they would meet in the future, it would probably be very interesting!
"The red-haired boy? Could it be that guy? "
Luo Chen had his suspicions as he piloted the Logan.
The USS Logan, which set sail again, had a very clear goal. It didn't stop midway and went straight to Windmill Island.
Lo Chen didn't communicate with Garp. After all, the other party was a Marine hero. If he contacted him at this moment, it would be like an escaped prisoner contacting the higher-ups of the J party.
"I'm very curious, Captain."
"How do you know that Lu Jiu is on this island!"
Jason showed a puzzled expression and pointed to the island on the sea map.
"In fact, I have the ability to predict the future."
Lo Chen smiled mysteriously.
Crocodile narrowed his eyes and nodded seriously.
"That fruit does have this ability!"
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone present was surprised and looked at Lo Chen in disbelief.
Shaking his head, Lo Chen was too lazy to explain.
His fruit's ability was indeed very mysterious. Even now, he hadn't fully developed it. The main reason was that his spiritual force was not strong enough.
If he could cover an island with his spiritual force, which was his divine sense, then the ability of the Fruit of Prophecy would be earth-shattering.
Unfortunately, spiritual force was more difficult to cultivate. It was the most time-consuming.
Three months later, the USS Logan was close to Windmill Island.
Compared to the many islands that Lo Chen had traveled to, this island was not the most prosperous. It could even be said to be average. Moreover, it was remote and difficult to find.
When the USS Logan anchored on the shore of the island, it attracted many people's attention.
"That looks like a pirate?"
"It's pirates. The pirates are here!"
"Go and tell the village chief."
The crowd was a little panicked. For ordinary people, pirates were no different from mountain bandits. They were all bad guys who committed all kinds of crimes.
Soon, under the command of the villagers, the crowd walked toward the shore. The village chief was in the lead. His face was solemn, but he didn't panic.
When Luo Chen and his group disembarked from the boat, the villagers were already opposite them.
"Pirates, there's nothing you want here. Leave quickly!"
The village chief said loudly, leading the villagers who were holding weapons.
Looking at the village chief's nervous expression, Lo Chen smiled helplessly.
"Uncles and aunties, we're just passing by. We won't do anything."
Hearing this, the village chief stared at Lo Chen cautiously.
"Are you really just passing by?"
"Yes. Don't worry. We're not evil guys."
Lo Chen smiled.
The village chief looked at them carefully a few more times. In his heart, he judged that this group of people in front of him looked ordinary. At most, some of them were ugly. They didn't have the potential to be evil guys. Only then did he nod his head.
"I allow you to enter the town, but you're not allowed to cause trouble!
Otherwise, we'll show you the power of Windmill Town! "
"Don't worry!"
Lo Chen repeatedly promised that this group of uncles and aunties would let them go.
Behind him, the people who saw the captain's embarrassment were secretly laughing.
"Why do I feel like laughing when I see the captain like this?"
"Me too. It's so funny."
"Hahahaha!"
The villagers gradually dispersed, and Lo Chen and his group began to enter the village. Soon, the crew started chatting with these simple villagers.
As they came from the sea, they were always more knowledgeable than the villagers. The relationship between the two sides progressed quickly.
In a small bar, Lo Chen and his group gathered here.
"Although our town is small, the wine is delicious. It's brewed in the town. Only here can we have it."
The bar owner boasted, and the lady boss next to him introduced with a smile.
"Hey, give us some. We want to try the home-brewed wine."
Jason shouted loudly.
Lo Chen didn't care. Donghai was his hometown. The wine of his hometown was naturally delicious.
"Okay!"
With business coming to their door, the couple was so happy that they couldn't close their mouths. Usually, there were only so many people in the town, so the flow of customers was naturally not large.
But when the foreign pirates arrived, their business was at its most prosperous.
Soon, the home-brewed wine was served. After everyone tasted it, they were all amazed.
"It's really good, this wine!"
"Boss, give me another bottle, it's not enough!"
The crew shouted.
