"Really, can we really fight back?" A young man pushing a wheelchair asked cautiously.
The person in the wheelchair was his father, who had his leg broken by a fishman half a month ago when he objected to the cutting down of his orange tree.
"Of course, please do your best!" Aaron's answer stunned the young man, but then the young man picked up a thick wooden stick and hit Aaron on the back with it.
Aaron didn't move at all, didn't even activate his domineering aura, and just endured it.
Huo Di and the others cried bitterly. They were two years younger than Charlie, only seventeen or eighteen years old now. How could they withstand such a scene? Their own brothers took the beating for them.
Seeing that Aaron was fine, the young man wanted to hit him again with the stick, but his father grabbed his hands. His father shook his head, and the young man finally threw the stick on the ground and pushed his father away.
The young man started a good start. One after another, villagers picked up sticks or other tools to hit A-Long. Because he had no domineering spirit, A-Long was beaten all over. A-Long controlled the dog talisman to prevent it from healing his wounds.
One of the villagers even took out a knife and slashed Aaron, then knelt on the ground and cried loudly. His father was killed in this way.
Finally, the village chief came out and stopped the villagers' actions. It was not Aaron who made the mistake. Aaron had already paid the price he deserved. So let it be!
All the villagers hugged each other and cried.
Jiang Bo walked to Bellmère's side and touched Nami's head. He already understood clearly that Hodi required every family to provide at least one laborer, otherwise they would be killed, but several families in the village did not have such conditions.
Huodi refused to allow others to take his place, so those families had no choice but to let their elderly relatives do the work.
Bellemere, a navy officer, was assigned to work here after his assassination attempt on Hodi failed. In the end, Bellemere dared to do the work of several people alone, taking on all the labor that the old men should have done.
The two sensible children couldn't bear to see their mother suffer, so they came to help!
"You are great, you are a great mother, I apologize to you for the wrong things that Huodi and others did!" Jiang Bo bent down.
"Who are you?" asked Bellmère.
"I'm the captain of that idiot!" Jiang Bo pouted and pointed at Aaron.
"Although you are a pirate, you must be a qualified captain!" Bellmère commented.
"Thanks!"
Jiang Bo found the village chief and counted all the damaged items and looted property on the island. He would pay double compensation for everything!
In the end, the villagers should have forgiven Aaron, and no one attacked him. Of course, they just didn't mind Aaron, they still hated Hodi and others.
Jiang Bo never thought that in the original novel, it was Aaron who brought disaster to Kokoasi Village. Now, after his intervention, Aaron is no longer doing bad things, and his successor Huodi is actually repeating his old ways.
Fate is so magical.
Perhaps this is the disaster that the companions of the Son of the World are destined to suffer, and this is a disaster that belongs only to Nami.
