Chapter 228 Nami and Nuo Qi Gao【Part 1】(2/2)
Rosinandi scratched his head in embarrassment and laughed, "I am very happy to have a major. Oh, by the way, the investiture ceremony will be held when the time comes. Brother Nuo Xia, you must come and see it!"
"Don't worry, no matter how busy I am, I will still find some time."
Nuo Xia also smiled.
He watched Rosinandi and others wave away, and he was about to turn around and go home to rest, but at this moment, an extremely strong burning sensation suddenly came from the center of his eyebrows...
This is an early warning reminder for a specially designed life card.
Nuo Xia immediately opened the system panel and looked at the new screen reminder that popped up in the life card in the backpack column.
Among the six distributed cards, the one belonging to Bellemere was burning at a speed visible to the naked eye...
What's going on?
Noxia's expression immediately changed. Didn't Bellmere already eat the Rust Fruit he gave her and become a Devil Fruit user? How could he encounter a life-threatening threat in a place like the East China Sea?
There was a chill in his eyes.
No time to think too much.
Seeing that the sky was dark and there was no one around, Nuo Xia immediately dodged into the woods behind the restaurant. At the same time, with a thought, he instantly activated the transmission function of the life card.
————————
East China Sea, Gargas Island.
This was originally an island with bustling commerce and trade, but since it was jointly occupied by two pirate groups passing by three days ago, it has become an out-and-out hell on earth.
The pirates plundered everywhere and indulged their desires wantonly. Countless families were broken up, corpses were scattered everywhere, houses were burned down, and the lively streets were turned into ruins...
It was under such circumstances that the warships of Branch 16 rushed here for emergency assistance, and a protracted battle broke out with the two big pirate groups.
The battle was extremely fierce, and more than 200 of the more than 500 naval soldiers were killed or seriously injured.
If Bellemere, as a second lieutenant of the navy, had not stopped the two pirate captains of the opponent alone and defeated them with difficulty in a hard battle that lasted for several hours, the number of casualties would have been at least doubled.
After the battle, the sky darkened, dark clouds piled up, and light rain fell, as if in silent mourning for the heroic souls who died on the ground...
Under the rain, Bellemeier clutched his bloody shoulder wound and limped along among the ruins.
There was little time to bandage and heal her injuries. Before the rain became heavier, she had to do her best to work with her comrades in the army to rescue as many surviving people as possible from the ruins...
"Hey, Bellemere!"
A familiar sailor couldn't help but persuade her, "You have done well enough just now, go and have a rest, and leave the rest to us!"
"How can that be done!"
The girl with a maroon ponytail glared at the guy first, then grinned, "Don't worry, I'm fine... Come on, give me a shovel!"
"You guy..."
The comrades knew that she was stubborn and could not be persuaded, so they had no choice but to shovel the extra engineers and throw them away.
"Thanks!"
Bellmer laughed heartily, but when she turned her back, she couldn't help but gasp in pain. She gritted her teeth, pushed back her sleeves, picked up the engineering shovel, and joined the excavation and rescue team.
Even though she was seriously injured, she was still much more efficient than other marines. When encountering large metal obstacles, she could use the power of the Rust Fruit to easily resolve them.
