"You usually seem like a rather aloof person, I never expected you to have such a talent for telling corny jokes!"
"Hahaha!" Another burst of laughter erupted.
Bellemere didn't laugh. She looked at the boy in front of her, and her intuition told her that he wasn't telling any lame jokes. She knew that Chiga was no ordinary person. After all, the pressure from those eyes was too strong. Only a fool would believe that it was just a strange appearance.
The surrounding villagers simply avoided looking at him subconsciously during their daily interactions, or, after spending a long time with him, they discovered that Chiga was a good person and overlooked his uniqueness.
Chiga wasn't annoyed. He said nothing, but simply raised his hand towards the Sea Kings and softly uttered four words.
"Shenra Tianzheng"
Thus, the sea king's corpse was pushed several hundred meters away again, leaving everyone speechless.
Chapter 4 Who Are You?
"Brother Qianhe, are you a fairy?"
"No."
"Brother Qianhe, do you ever think of eating me?"
"Very painful."
"Brother Qianhe, can you teach me that move? Once I learn it, I won't be afraid of Bellemere scolding me anymore!"
On the way back, Nami clung to Chiga, chattering incessantly, while Nogiga shook his head helplessly, constantly pulling Nami away from Chiga's legs.
"When you're a bit older and more ladylike like Machigo, maybe I'll teach you." Chiga flicked Nami's forehead with a soft "pop," then rubbed his hands together, quite satisfied with the feel of the touch.
Nami covered her head with both hands, glared at him angrily, and pouted, humming.
"You stingy little thing! I bet you only like Machigo! Waaah, don't I cherish it anymore??"
Nami's antics made Machiga blush. Annoyed, Machiga slapped Nami's head again and shyly glanced at Chiga.
However, her little tricks certainly didn't escape Chiga's eyes.
After all, he possessed the excellent genes of the Uchiha clan, and his slightly aloof temperament was extremely attractive to these precocious little girls. In addition, his mysterious eyes held a deadly allure amidst the danger.
Hey! These damn genes, and these damn talents! Qianhe remained outwardly calm and collected, but inwardly he had already indulged in a shameless moment of narcissism!
Bellemere followed silently behind them, her eyes fixed on Chika's back.
What was that power? Was it the power of a Devil Fruit? But she had seen Chika jump into the sea to catch fish; aren't all Devil Fruit users unable to swim?
The boy before her seemed like a mystery to her, and she was eager to unravel it.
Upon entering the village and reaching the crossroads where they would part ways, Bellemere seemed to have made up her mind. She told Nogiko and Nami to go back first, as she had some things to take care of. Although Nami and Nogiko were a little confused, they obediently went home.
After the two left, only Bellemere and Chiga remained at the intersection. Chiga looked at Bellemere and knew she had something to ask him, so he spoke up.
"Sister Bellemere, is there something you need?"
Bellemere took a deep breath and said cautiously,
"Chiga, it may be presumptuous of me to ask this, but I mean no harm. May I ask who you really are? After all, it's really hard to understand why someone with that kind of ability would stay in a small, insignificant place like the East Blue for ten years, right? And those eyes... they're not just strange in appearance. Of course, if this question makes you uncomfortable, you don't have to answer. Please don't take it to heart!"
Bellemere fired off a string of questions, her ten fingers intertwined, anxiously awaiting Chiga's reply.
Chiga gave her a deep look, then smiled. Having watched the anime, he greatly admired Bellemere.
Although she wasn't very strong, the scene of her smiling in the face of death to protect Nami and the other girl still deeply moved him at the time. He knew she was a good person, so he didn't have any negative feelings about her.
After thinking for a moment, Qianhe said in a deep voice,
"It's okay. Just know that I'm not a bad person. You can think of these eyes as our family's talent. They're called the Rinnegan, the eyes of a sage. That move just now was released through them. It's one of my abilities. As for my race, you could say I come from the sage lineage, the Uchiha clan."
Sage, Uchiha, Rinnegan, a type of ability—hearing these words, Bellemere was deeply shaken. Although she had never heard of the Uchiha clan, judging from Chiga's performance, they must be an extremely powerful race.
Seeing that Bellemere was standing there blankly without reacting, Chiga continued,
“Some things happened, and I have some memory loss, but I still remember that I am the last member of this clan in this world. As for why I have stayed on this island for so long... have you ever thought about it? I was only six years old when I came to the village. Where could I have gone back then?”
"Uh, it seems so," Bellemere scratched her head awkwardly. "So what are your plans for the future? With this ability, you shouldn't be staying here forever, right?"
"Yes, I'm planning to join the Navy."
"what??"
Chapter 5 Preparation before departure
When Chiga returned home, he first let Grandma Lisa know that he was safe and sound, and then handed over the 80 million Berries he had saved in the room to Grandma Lisa.
The money was the bounty that Chiga had earned from taking down some small pirate crews while sailing around the world over the past few years. Since there weren't any decent pirate crews around, she had only managed to save up this much over the years. However, it was enough for her grandmother, who was over seventy years old, to live comfortably for the rest of her life.
The mother-in-law looked at the huge sum of money in surprise and refused to accept it.
Chiga hurriedly explained,
"Don't worry, I guarantee this money is all from legitimate sources. I'm planning to join the navy, and I'm worried about leaving you alone at home. Please take this money."
The mother-in-law was finally relieved. She knew Qianhe was a kind-hearted boy with a cold exterior, who had been honest and upright all these years and had never lied to her. She put the money away in the box behind her.
Turning to look at the child she had lived with for ten years, Grandma Lisa had no children of her own, and she had long regarded Chika as her own grandson. Now that he was leaving, Grandma Lisa was naturally filled with reluctance.
However, she also knew that young people needed to go out and explore, especially Qianhe, who was so different from others. She reached out and patted Qianhe's waist, showing a kind smile, and said,
"Go ahead, my good child. I believe you can make something of yourself. Don't worry about me. The people in the village are all very kind. With them around, I'll be fine. Go ahead and make your own way!"
Chiga was also somewhat saddened. He went forward and hugged his mother-in-law.
"Yes, I will definitely not let you down. Before long, I will let this sea know my name, and I will come back to see you often."
After explaining things to Grandma Lisa, Chiga tidied up a bit and then visited the Bellemere family. Both Bellemere and Naminochigao were people he had become quite close to in recent years.
Arriving at Bellemere's house, Chika knocked on the door, and it opened shortly after. A small blue head peeked out; it was Nokigo.
Nogiko was delighted to see that it was Chiga who had arrived. However, when she noticed the small bag of luggage Chiga was carrying, she seemed to realize something, and her expression dimmed slightly. But she still managed to put on her brightest smile and called out in a clear, cheerful voice.
"Brother Qianhe!"
Qianhe smiled, patted her head, responded, and then explained his purpose.
Although she had already suspected it, when she actually heard the news, Nuoqigao couldn't help but tear up, and she forced a smile.
"Then, Brother Qianhe, I'll go and inform Bellemere and the others that we'll come and see you off."
"No need, I'm leaving now. Just go back and let them know. I won't go in..."
suddenly,
"How can this be? You've lived in the village for ten years. How can you leave so casually?"
Bellemere came out of the house with Nami, and said, feigning anger,
"Come on! We'll go see you off together!"
Nogiga also turned to look at Chiga expectantly.
"What a troublesome bond!" Chiga's words were tinged with annoyance, but she couldn't help but smile.
"Hmph! You stubborn tsundere!" Nami had already seen through everything with her insight that surpassed even the Rinnegan!
Chika glared at Nami, then stepped forward and picked up Nogiko, whose eyes were red and who was in a bad mood.
"Hey, Chiga-nii..." Nuoqigao was clearly a little embarrassed and struggled a bit.
"What's wrong? I'm leaving soon, can't I have a hug?" Qianhe said with a straight face.
“Of course…” Noqi Gao immediately quieted down, but her clenched fists betrayed her nervousness.
"Hmph! What a biased man!" How could Nami, the little吐槽怪 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for someone who loves to complain), be absent at a time like this?
Ignoring her this time, Chiga prepared to leave.
"let's go."
Upon reaching the shore, Chika addressed the crowd.
"Alright, that's all for now. Thank you everyone. Let's say goodbye here."
"Right here?" Bellemere looked at the empty surroundings and then suspiciously at Chiga.
"Yes, right here." Then, Chika's body floated into the air amidst the incredulous gazes of the crowd.
"So, are you really human?" After a long silence, Bellemere took a deep breath and asked firmly, while Naminochiko beside her nodded in agreement.
She didn't answer that question. After all, Chiga's body had already evolved in the direction of the Otsutsuki clan, so it wouldn't be a problem to say that he was no longer human.
After thinking for a moment, Chiga took out a uniquely shaped kunai from his pocket and handed it to Noki, instructing him, "If anything dangerous happens in the village while I'm away, hold this and call my name in your heart, understand?"
Noki carefully put away the kunai and nodded earnestly to show that he remembered it.
Chiga smiled and patted her head. The kunai was naturally the Flying Thunder God Kunai of the Fourth Hokage in Naruto. With his enormous chakra and the Rinnegan, he could instantly reach the vicinity of the kunai no matter how far away it was, as long as he could sense the signal.
He also left a kunai with Granny Lisa, but just in case, he made an extra preparation, since the Fishman Pirates would still be a threat in a few years.
Relieved, Chiga's body began to float upwards.
"Well then, goodbye everyone. Nogiko and Nami, you two should eat well, so that you won't still be two little ones when we meet next time."
"Yes, yes, I remember, Qianhe-ge, you must remember to come back!" Nuoqigao's face was already full of tears as he shouted loudly at Qianhe in the air.
"Hmph, I don't want to listen to you, just go! Anyway, you won't care what I become, right? You biased bastard Chika!" Nami secretly wiped away a tear and said defiantly, her neck stiff.
"Go for it, Chiga! I look forward to the day you become a Marine Admiral... no, a Fleet Admiral!" Bellemere shouted to the sky.
With a final glance at the people on the ground and Cocoyasi Village, Chiga's gaze hardened. Then, she unleashed a burst of repulsive force and vanished from everyone's sight in an instant.
"Navy, here I come!"
Chapter 6: Door Door Fruit
East China Sea,
After a day of flying at sea, Chiga saw a small island and decided to rest there for a while.
Landing gently, Qianhe surveyed her surroundings and noticed the vegetation was fairly lush. She thought to herself...
"There should be some animals on this island. Let's find something to eat first."
Chiga searched the island and finally hunted down a huge tiger. He then came to an open space, used fire-style techniques to start a fire, and prepared to have a hearty meal.
