=========================================
After Arlong invaded Cocoyasi Village, ten-year-old Nami endured the humiliation and joined the Arlong Pirates to protect the villagers. She agreed to Arlong's condition: if she could collect 100 million berries, the village would be freed.
To accomplish this, Nami resorted to deception and theft, using her extraordinary skills to steal from the pirates. However, Arlong broke his promise and conspired with Captain Nezumi to steal Nami's savings, prompting the Straw Hat Pirates to fight Arlong for Nami.
At first, Noir believed that Nami's love for Berries stemmed from her tragic experiences, which made her value money and excel at theft. But now Noir realized that Nami's affinity for Berries and her expertise in deception were innate talents.
"The target has acquired a new talent. Please check, host."
When Noir heard the system's voice, he twitched slightly. Could this be it?
When he checked Nami, who originally only had a red talent, he now saw a new one.
"Little Thief Cat: White quality. Valued money highly, possesses exceptional deception skills. The success rate of theft or deception depends on the enemy's intelligence, up to 100%."
Noir sighed. Sweet little Nami had inherited her traditional skills, but why was it only a low-quality white talent?
The system explained, "Acquired talents are different from innate ones and can be upgraded as skills improve.
Noir nodded. Devil Fruit powers are a prime example of acquired talents. For example, Luffy's Gum-Gum Fruit started at a low quality, but developed significantly with his abilities, especially after the two-year time jump.
Seeing Nami hugging a bundle of berries with a blissful expression on her face, Noir's face twisted into a mischievous grin.
Little one, if I can't handle you, someone else will. Do you think Bell-mère would let you go?
While counting the money, Nami suddenly felt a shiver run down her spine, sensing imminent danger. She looked suspiciously at Noir, who smiled innocently and showed no intention of taking her money. Relieved, she resumed counting.
The journey back was quick and uneventful, with no minor pirates to slow them down. Noir's party soon returned to Cocoyasi Village, where Bell-mère and Nojiko were waiting on the shore.
When Bell-mère discovered that her daughter had left, she was worried until she saw that her children had returned safely. But her expression changed to shock when she saw the berries on the ship.
Was this voyage so profitable?
Nami was worried because she had stolen the money and didn't dare look Bell-mère in the eye. But Bell-mère paid no attention to her, because Noir was busy telling the story.
Exaggerating the story, Noir complained, "Bell-mère, while I was fighting, Nami sneaked off to steal money.
"Not only that, but she kept all the stolen money for herself and refused to share any!"
"Really?" Bell-mère's anger rose, her fists clenched.
"Absolutely!" Noir nodded vigorously, his two disciples nodding frantically behind him.
Bell-mère took a deep breath and said quietly, "Don't worry, Noir. She'll cough up every cent."
Smiling, Bell-mère approached the confused Nami. Noir covered his mouth and chuckled.
Bell-mère, smiling, said to the uneasy Nami, "Your brother says you're very capable, stealing money from pirates.
Relieved that Bell-mère wasn't scolding her, Nami smiled innocently. "Yes, Bell-mère! I can buy a lot of treats with it!"
"Didn't you share it with your brother and the others?" Bell-mère asked.
Nami paused, realizing that Noir hadn't asked for any. She shook her head. "No."
Hearing this, Bell-mère said, "I'm so happy for you, Nami, that you have so much money."
Feeling that something was wrong, Nami's smile faltered.
Before she could answer, Bell-mère continued, "Since you're young, it's easy to lose money. I'll keep it for you."
Nami, panicking, stammered, "I..."
Bell-mère cut her off, "Don't worry, Nami. I won't take it. You'll get it back when you're older."
Nami, frustrated but afraid to defy Bell-mère, could only watch helplessly.
Bell-mère, satisfied, shouted, "Bring the money down!"
"Yes!"
Delighted to witness the "confiscation," Noir eagerly complied.
A young Nami couldn't outsmart Bell-mère. Under Nami's pained gaze, the treasure was taken home and placed in Bell-mère's safe, not Nami's.
Afterwards, Bell-mère shared some berries with Noir and his disciples, who celebrated happily.
Nami, biting her handkerchief, wept bitterly.
My money...
Later, Noir sent Kaede and Naomi with York's head to the Navy to collect the bounty, none of which went to Nami.
Thus Noir made his debut as a pirate hunter, gaining fame for killing Kembra, York, and defeating Arlong. He quickly became a rising star in the East Blue.
As the years passed, Noir's power grew and his bounty kills increased, earning him considerable fame among the East Blue Navy, hunters, and pirates.
He was eventually dubbed "The Strongest Pirate Hunter in East Blue.
In Bell-mère's house in the village of Cocoyasi, the now-famous Noir sat in his room, opened his eyes, and exclaimed excitedly:
"At seventeen, I've finally awakened Conqueror Haki!"
