=========================================
As Noir entered the village, he observed his surroundings. The pirate leader, York, seemed to have some sense.
Groups of fierce looking pirates were patrolling the village. The villagers had been driven from their homes, turning this small village into a pirate stronghold.
Noir, the Pirate Hunter, walked through the village unnoticed, as if he were invisible.
Nonchalantly, Noir approached a group of pirates and calmly asked, "Excuse me, where does York live?"
The pirates, taken aback, replied, "York's house is in the center of the village. Just go straight ahead."
"Thanks!"
Noir nodded and walked on.
One of the pirates, confused, asked his companion, "When did we get such a young trainee?"
His companion, also puzzled, hesitated, "Could he be... an intruder?"
"Nonsense! Who asks pirates for directions when they invade?"
"That's true..."
...
Noir had an inexplicably smooth journey, but Nami had some problems.
Smiling sweetly, Nami served drinks to her brother's two unsuspecting Students.
Feeling pampered, Kaede and Naomi relaxed. Seeing her chance, Nami said, "Sisters, can we go ashore to play?"
Naomi, her face turning serious, replied, "No! Master said we have to watch over you.
Nami, still smiling, said, "Watching over me is easy. Just come play with me and you'll watch over me."
Naomi, a bit slow-witted, asked, "Is that what Master meant?"
Kaede, also confused, hesitated, "Maybe?"
Nami seized the moment and persuaded, "Don't you want to sneak in and take all the treasures? Imagine how happy my brother will be when he sees a ship full of berries."
Her tone, reminiscent of a con artist, enchanted Kaede and Naomi.
Seeing their seduced expressions, Nami grinned, "Shall we... go?"
The sisters exchanged glances and excitedly shouted, "Let's go!"
With the gullible Kaede and Naomi in tow, Nami stealthily made her way to the village.
Meanwhile, pirate leader York, unaware that he was being targeted, sat in a large house holding a wine glass and boasting to his subordinates.
"Congratulations, Boss, on acquiring a fine weapon from the black market!"
"Yes, this weapon is from the Grand Line, befitting York's strength!"
"Boss, show us the sword!"
York, pleased with the flattery, laughed and said, "All right, I'll show you."
He took out a long object wrapped in black cloth from next to his seat.
When he unfolded it, he revealed a finely crafted long sword. The ornate scabbard and white cross-shaped guard with gray handle promised a good grip.
"This is Pure Heart, one of the Fifty Fine Swords. It's famous even in the Grand Line. Now it's mine!"
York proudly displayed Pure Heart.
"Wow, can you give me this sword?"
"Haha, of course..."
An unfamiliar voice interrupted, and York, caught off guard, almost gave the sword away before he realized and angrily shouted, "Who's so presumptuous?!"
The pirates turned to see a boy nonchalantly feasting.
York, not recognizing him, asked, "Who are you?"
Stuffing a drumstick into his mouth and wiping his hands on a pirate's clothing, Noir said, "I'm a pirate hunter. I'm here for your head!"
"Pirate hunter?!" The pirates were shocked. Why was a pirate hunter here?
York, suspicious, said, "Impossible! there is so many guards. How did you sneak in?"
Noir, remembering the guards, replied earnestly, "The controls were strict. It took a lot of effort."
"Damn!" York, enraged by Noir's casual attitude, shouted, "What are you waiting for? Kill him!"
"Yes!"
Like wolves, the pirates drew their weapons and charged.
The once-harmonious atmosphere vanished, replaced by shouts and clashing weapons that chilled the hall.
Surrounded by pirates, Noir showed no fear.
He effortlessly blocked their attacks, occasionally countering with ease.
As he walked toward York, surrounded by pirates, Noir's pace remained undiminished.
York, seeing his men unable to stop Noir, shouted, "Call for reinforcements! Get everyone inside!"
At York's command, pirates from outside flooded the hall, leaving the village defenseless.
Nami, Kaede, and Naomi, hiding outside the village, were struggling to find a way in when they noticed the pirates leaving.
The three of them stared at the empty village.
What luck!
Nami's eyes glowed with berry symbols and she grinned, "Great, let's find the pirate's treasure!"
Kaede and Naomi nodded eagerly, and the trio boldly entered the village in search of the treasure.
Back in the hall, waves of pirates swarmed in, but a wide space remained around Noir.
Faced with the lone Noir, the pirates were terrified and hesitant to approach. Many were trampled to death in the chaos.
Noir, indifferent, glanced at the frightened pirates, then focused on York, eyes gleaming with greed.
Both the sword and the bounty-I want them all!
