Chapter 513 Sabo, the Red-Haired

Didit's elegant face showed a perfectly timed apology. After gesturing to her husband, Otelluc III, she then apologized to Oleene:

"How rude of you, distinguished guest. Sabo is a newborn and has not yet learned the proper etiquette of a nobleman."

Having said that, Didit walked toward the nursery, and Otrulk III chimed in:

"If Sabo can become a nobleman as outstanding as you, it will surely be the greatest glory of our Oteruk family."

His words were full of praise for Oleni, which is understandable.

With a letter of introduction from Mary Geoise and credentials from the World Government, Oren is backed by a powerful noble family with ties to the Celestial Dragons. Such a status surpasses that of most royal families, making her worthy of Otrulk III's utmost flattery.

Oleni smiled slightly: "Hehe, you're too kind. I'm just passing by to do some business and take a look at the East China Sea's trade chain. I'll need your help in that."

As a veteran nobleman of the Goa Kingdom, Otrulk was naturally shrewd. He immediately understood the deeper meaning in Oleene's words. Was the blond youth before him really just here to do some small business? Not necessarily. He was probably there to inspect the East Blue trade chain. And someone who could represent the Celestial Dragons to inspect the trade chain in the East Blue was undoubtedly a trusted confidant of the Celestial Dragons—a true nobleman!

Otruk's smile widened, almost as if the words "flattery" were etched onto his face.

"Hehehe, you've really come to the right person. Although our Otruk family can't compare to a noble family like yours, we've been established in the Goa Kingdom and even the East Blue for a long time, and we're sure we can meet your requirements."

Oleni thanked him in advance: "Hehe, then thank you in advance."

Listening to the back-and-forth between Oreni and the young nobleman in front of him, Barrett remained silent and expressionless, but inwardly he couldn't help but sigh, "Truly worthy of being Mr. Lex's son, his ability to perform hypocrisy is even better than his master's."

After drinking some tea—

Didit arrived, accompanied by a maid carrying a baby.

"This child must feel that a nobleman like yourself has arrived, so he keeps crying and wants to behold your majesty. How rude of him."

Didit was just as adept at flattery as her husband, Otrulluk III; they believed that family members should not be treated like family.

O'Lenney got up and looked at the baby who had been put back in the stroller:

"Is his name Sabo?"

“That’s right, Otruk Sabo.”

"Hmm, not bad at all. He'll likely grow up to be an excellent nobleman."

Upon hearing this, Otruuk III and Didit were overjoyed. Their earlier fawning over the blond boy had finally yielded some response.

Otelluk III already had a plan in mind. He was determined to do his best to help Oleini with her business in the Kingdom of Goa and to leave a good impression on her. This was a golden opportunity to curry favor with the nobles of Mary Geoise.

This opportunity won't come again.

Sabo, in the stroller, stared at the blond older brother with his big, innocent eyes, babbling incoherently, which was quite endearing.

Human babies are always cute.

For some reason, little Sabo seemed to particularly like the blond older brother in front of him. He felt that this gentle blond older brother had a mysterious charm that could make little Sabo stop crying and fussing and calm him down.

"Haha, Sabo, it's Oleni."

"Eeya~ Bo~ Bo~"

After finishing his meal, Olene declined King Otrulk III's sincere invitation to stay overnight and left the high town of the Goa Kingdom, arriving at the outskirts of the Goa Kingdom.

White clouds, green trees, flowers, grass, and chirping insects.

Compared to the rigid and formal aristocratic residential areas, the sparsely populated outskirts of the Kingdom of Goa are much more pleasant.

O'Leary and Barrett seemed to have no specific destination, as if they were simply enjoying a picnic along a country path.

O'Leary's smile now was genuine; his smile in High Town was a highly artistic performance.

“What a peaceful afternoon, Uncle Barrett.”

"Yes, I like it here more too."

Douglas Barrett, a top-ranked warrior on the Sky List who has fought across the great era for many years, also prefers this peaceful life to the restrictive aristocratic life in High Town.

"Uncle Barrett, is a class-based system like this common in the Goa Kingdom?"

The area inside and outside the high town of the Goa Kingdom is like two completely different worlds, worlds apart.

It's hard to believe that there's only a city wall separating them.

The nobles live in the high town, the commoners in the suburbs, and the poorer beggars or orphans live in the junkyard, the 'uncertain waste terminal'—this is a quintessential segregated society.

Barrett thought for a moment and then gave his answer: "It used to be like this. Kingdoms protected by the World Government's military force were often better off than non-member states. And within the same kingdom, areas with naval branches and the military power of the royal family were better off than slums. This phenomenon was too common in the Blue Sea. Of course, after Mr. Lex ordered the world to start the Great Era, this situation changed fundamentally. At least in the New World, the West Blue, and the South Blue, this phenomenon is gradually decreasing and even disappearing."

O'Lane is naturally intelligent, but he is still young and his experience is limited. There are many things he doesn't understand. Barrett, on the other hand, has been Lex's right-hand man in starting this great era, so he naturally understands the changes that have taken place.

"Is that so? This must be one of the meanings of Leon's glory."

During their conversation, Olene and Barrett arrived at a town on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Goa. At the entrance to the peaceful town, a wooden sign that read "Windmill Village" was hung on a small windmill.

Windmill Village.

The cacophony inside the tavern carried far, and Orenie could hear it clearly even from about ten meters away.

"Shanks! You're bragging again. Where would you find an island full of delicious food, rivers made of fruit juice, soil made of chocolate, and corn growing bigger than trees? Are you drunk? Hahahaha!"

"Hahaha! I'm not drunk at all. The Boeing Islands (Baron of the Stomach) are a wondrous creation of the sea, hahaha!"

A group of low-level pirates were chatting and joking around in a tavern, and the atmosphere seemed pretty good.

crunch--

The wooden door of the tavern was pushed open, and the room suddenly fell silent as everyone looked at the newcomer outside.

A burly, tall, blond man and a cute, seemingly harmless blond boy.

Yes, I recognized him by his eyes; he was just an ordinary passerby.

The group of little pirates continued eating and drinking as usual, not taking anything to heart; the food was delicious!

Of course, apart from the captain and first mate of this group of small-time pirates, the rest of the pirates, who were all face-blind, did not recognize the blond, muscular man in front of them—Barrett.

Shanks and Beckman exchanged a glance, then their gazes returned to Barrett and Oren.

He wouldn't recognize any of the other rookie pirates, so how could he not?

How could Shanks, who had only recently become a pirate and had always sailed the seas with Roger and even frequently met Rex himself, not recognize him?

In the original storyline, Barrett even spent some time on Roger's ship, but now he's been taken away by Lex and made his subordinate.

and so--

"Hahaha! Hello everyone, welcome to Windmill Village."
