Noir quickly responded, "Coming!"

Addressing this matter naturally, Noir and the two girls had gone through thick and thin together, now becoming a family. They called him brother these days, but Bell-mère refused to be called mom, arguing it made her sound old. Given that Bell-mère was only 21, it made sense. In a past life, she'd just be starting her beautiful life!

Noir stepped out of the cabin and saw the trio sitting leisurely by the side of the boat, each holding a fishing rod.

Suddenly, he remembered he hadn't checked the talents of others since his system awakened.

"System, check the talents of Bell-mère, Nojiko, and Nami."

"Check complete. Talent panels are now open for the host."

Name: Bell-mère

- [Heroine]: Blue Quality - Despite being a woman, Bell-mère possesses the willpower and combat skills comparable to men. When single, her combat skill learning efficiency doubles.

- [Maternal Radiance]: Blue Quality - As a mother, Bell-mère gains a 30% combat power boost when fighting to protect her children. Her children will likely develop kind and strong personalities but will inevitably have undesirable traits.

Name: Nojiko

- [Elder Sister's Authority]: Blue Quality - As an older sister, Nojiko has a natural ability to dominate Nami, doubling the success rate of comforting, encouraging, and persuading her.

Seeing their talents, Noir was speechless. His replication cards seemed useless. None of these talents suited a man. If he copied them, would he become a heroine, a great mother, or an authoritative sister?

Feeling slightly frustrated, Noir's mood improved when he saw Nami's talent.

Name: Nami

- [Climate Super Sensitivity]: Red Quality—Nami can sense the air with her body and predict various weather changes. Under normal circumstances, her weather predictions are flawless, making shipwrecks due to weather nearly impossible.

Red talent! Indeed, the little beauty is the true faith of this sea!

The original work often depicted Nami's exceptional navigation skills. Even with limited knowledge from East Blue, she excelled as a navigator, effortlessly sailing through the Grand Line's complex weather patterns.

Most navigators rely on extensive knowledge and experience, but Nami's talent makes her a climate queen, ideally avoiding the Grand Line's disasters. Even Princess Vivi, experienced as she was, admired Nami's talent. Gold Lion shamelessly kidnapped her for it.

Noir stared at the red glow on the virtual panel, laughing maniacally.

Bell-mère and her daughters turned to watch Noir laugh hysterically on the ground.

Nojiko asked, confused, "Is he crazy?"

Nami, clinging to Bell-mère's arm, nodded thoughtfully.

"Cough, cough."

Realizing his unbecoming behaviour, Noir stood up and calmly walked over. Bell-mère handed him a fishing rod, and he sat beside Nami.

"System, extract the red talent replication card."

A faint light flashed, and a red card appeared in Noir's hand. He quickly hid it and touched Nami's head.

"Ding, replication successful."

The card dissolved, and Noir felt an immediate change. The air seemed alive, the wind communicating its temperature, humidity, and other factors. He could sense the surrounding climate changes as if a naked beauty stood before him.

Blocking this was impossible!

Noir closed his eyes, enjoying the sensation of... ahem, the weather.

The East Blue weather was less complex than the Grand Line, making the journey pleasant and comfortable.

In this warm atmosphere, the four soon returned to Bell-mère's hometown, Cocoyashi Village, a peaceful and beautiful haven.

In the pirate world, peace and beauty are often disrupted.

About nine years later, the Arlong Pirates invaded, bringing Arlong's brutal rule. Bell-mère died protecting Nami and Nojiko, leaving a lasting scar on their hearts.

Seeing Bell-mère's gentle profile, Noir swore to prevent this tragedy from happening.

Nine years left. If I have Luffy's strength at twelve in nine years, I can fight back.

Despite the pressure, Noir felt reassured by the system.

Bell-mère's boat docked, and she led the children into the village. Villagers warmly greeted her, though their words were often harsh.

"Our delinquent girl isn't kicked out, is she?"

"She must have beaten up her superior!"

Although the villagers' words were harsh, Noir could feel their concern.

Bell-mère cheerfully responded to them while Nami and Nojiko, sensing the goodwill, curiously looked around.

Suddenly, a puzzled voice called out, "Bell-mère?"

Bell-mère, surprised, said, "Gen-san? Are you still the village policeman?"

Noir turned to see a middle-aged man in shorts and a short-sleeved police uniform, with a moustache and a severe and surprised expression.

He was the same Gen-san from the original, who always had a windmill on his head to make Nami laugh.

Curious, Noir immediately checked Gen-san's talents.

Name: Gen

- [Village Police Combat Techniques]: White Quality—Gen learned the combat techniques passed down by the Cocoyashi Village police.

- [Focus on One]: White Quality - Gen has an innate meticulousness. When focusing on a single task, his concentration and efficiency increase.

Combat techniques? Does a village policeman have combat techniques?
