After the adventure in Orange Town, Nami was hired by Lake as a temporary navigator for the Straw Hat Pirates and set off with them. The original boat was also replaced with a larger boat with a small cabin looted from Buggy, and the four people were not crowded on the boat. Luffy and Zoro also asked Lake about the scroll on the way, and Lake was helpless about it. He originally wanted to give it to Nami directly. This way he didn't have to explain, and he could also improve his relationship with Nami and further change her mind, but the dog system had regulations. "The host cannot use any treasure of any grade on non-partners."

This restriction directly cut Lake's plan in half. He had no choice but to put the scroll away first and wait until the right time comes, when he can persuade Nami to join the group.

After thinking about it, Lake thought of an opportunity, that is, the last treasure map left in Lake's hand, the one stolen by Nami on the ship of Alrita.

As long as this treasure map is not bad, Lake may be able to take the opportunity to make Nami change her mind and believe in them.

If you want to do it, do it. Originally, their target should be Xiluobu Village, which is the village where 'GOD' Usopp is, but now they need to take a detour first.

Although the captain's brain is not very good, Lake still symbolically discussed with Luffy, and Luffy agreed without hesitation when he heard about going to find the treasure.

Although he didn't get any special treasures from the treasures Lake found these times, Luffy was still very excited, because for him, finding treasures was an adventure.

After Luffy agreed, Lake went directly to the cabin and started to discuss with Nami. Nami naturally agreed when she heard that they were going to find treasures.

In addition, she had been to that sea area before, so she knew the location, and after understanding Lake's ability as a treasure hunter.

Nami now wanted to kidnap Lake directly. Now in Nami's eyes, Lake is an inexhaustible gold mountain. If it weren't for her lack of strength, Nami would definitely tie Lake up and sneak away.

With the navigator, their speed has obviously become much faster. Under Nami's command, it only took two days to find the destination.

And this time, finding treasure is also particularly easy. This uninhabited island called Kashi Pump is not big, and there are not even wild animals.

But even so, Luffy was still very excited along the way, and Nami was in a similar mood to Luffy, but she was excited because she was about to see a lot of gems.

Soon the four found the location. Needless to say, it was Luffy, but this time the treasure chest was not very bad, and it seemed that it had been buried for a long time.

Just when Nami was excited and ready to open it directly, Lake quickly stopped her and said, "It would be useless to open this treasure chest now."

Hearing this, Luffy, who was still preparing to open it secretly, was also stunned. He scratched his head awkwardly and gave a self-incriminating explanation.

"Treasure found! The grade is being determined... The son of luck partner +3 bonus is being added... The host's luck is OK, and the treasure grade has been upgraded to purple!"

This is already the third-tier treasure, and Lake is also very excited at this time, because his plan can start.

Accompanied by a flash of purple light, a treasure chest wrapped in gorgeous amethyst appeared instead of the original treasure chest, and Lake opened it without any nonsense.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Group Observation Haki Scroll: After using it, up to three people can directly comprehend the primary observation Haki, and the host is not included."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the exclusive purple-grade treasure, the three-color Haki: Observation Haki, Armament Haki, and Conqueror Haki, and the three-color Haki has been initially mastered."

Feeling the changes in his body, Lake couldn't help but raise his mouth. After all, who doesn't like the feeling of getting stronger by cheating?

At this time, Nami was no longer as excited as before, but fell into deep thought. Last time it was sapphire, this time it was the more valuable purple gem.

Nami also learned from Luffy that Lake had obtained a box of gold before. Thinking of this, Nami gritted her teeth and made a decision.

Regardless of what everyone was doing, Nami directly said to everyone: "Everyone... Lake, I want to ask you one thing..."

Finally, Nami mustered up the courage to tell the story of her village, and said that Nami also directly lifted the tattoo on her left arm.

Every time Nami saw this tattoo, her body couldn't stop being angry

Trembling, although Nami's narration only told the key part.

But the three men could feel the grievances Nami had suffered at this time, especially Lake, who was fully aware of the situation.

He was also heartbroken when he saw Nami like this, so Lake stepped forward and gently hugged Nami. Nami did not resist and leaned on Lake's chest and burst into tears.

At this time, even Luffy, who was always carefree, shouted angrily: "That guy named Arlong, I will definitely go back and beat him away! He dared to make my navigator cry! I will never forgive him!"

Zoro also said without showing any weakness: "I haven't cut the fishman yet, I hope those guys are not too weak."

Nami broke free from Lake's arms when she heard what Luffy and Zoro said, and immediately shouted anxiously.

"No! I just want you to lend me some money. I will go with you as long as I buy back the village. Don't bother with A'long... You will die..."

Nami's fear of fishmen has accumulated since she was a child. There is no way to eliminate this fear immediately, so Lake can only find another way.

Lake came to Nami and gently wiped away her tears and said: "Nami, I just need you to answer me now, are you really willing to be our partner."

Nami looked at Lake's firm eyes, nodded heavily with tears in her eyes, and Lake smiled with relief after getting Nami's answer.

"Since we are partners, you have to believe us. Isn't it just A'long? Nami, today I will let you know how powerful the partner you trust is!"
