Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

"You won't actually die within the Trial Tower's territory, but the cost of resurrection is a staggering several million Berries!"

The two trembled as they watched Hawkeye's retreating figure, their hearts aching with the reward points needed for resurrection.

Not just around Hawkeye,

Chaotic fighting erupted throughout the entire Trial Tower area, with everyone vying to eliminate their rivals ahead of time.

Upon discovering that the victims could not die, the chaotic fighting temporarily ceased, and everyone rushed into the tower gate, successfully landing on the massive island on the first level.

"Isn't that Nami?"

Arlong the fish-man grinned disgustingly, spreading his sticky purple arms, and said, "Hurry up and come back! The Arlong Pirates desperately need a captain like you to help us hunt monsters and win more chances to spin the Lucky Wheel!"

Not far away, there was a pitifully small boat.

Luffy and Zoro squeezed at the stern, leaving the helmsman's position at the bow to the pretty girl with orange hair.

"Ah Long?!"

Nami's pupils constricted suddenly, and her heart skipped a beat.

Every time I see that disgusting face, all the pain and oppression I've suffered over the years comes flooding back.

Forced to become a member of the Arlong Pirates, her murdered mother, and the threatened villagers—everything felt like a heavy stone pressing down on her, making it hard to breathe.

Arlong let out a piercing laugh and said, "I thought the officers of the Arlong Pirates had forgotten what their captain looks like?"

He shifted his gaze to the dull-witted Luffy and the not-so-bright Zoro, and sneered, "These two unlucky guys are your new targets for deception? They don't look very wealthy."

"Wow, amazing! A talking fish!"

Luffy held down his straw hat with one hand to prevent it from being blown away by the sea breeze, his eyes fixed on the dragon's jagged shark nose.

bang.

The dragon's face was filled with rage, and with a single crushing of the pirate ship's railings by its large, webbed hand, splinters of wood fell into the sea.

His expression turned cold, and he said, "Hey, Nami, take them down!"

Having lorded it over the East China Sea for years, no one had ever dared to look directly at them, as if they were some kind of special species.

This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

I recalled some unpleasant memories from Fishman Island.

"I reject."

Nami snapped out of her daze, her face equally cold.

She is no longer the little girl who would lie helplessly in the chart room, crying and praying to be saved by someone.

I am now a reincarnation game player capable of defeating Buggy, the pirate with a bounty of tens of millions.

There's no need to keep accumulating Pelés to make that ridiculous agreement.

With just their own hands, they can defeat the dragon and save Cocoyasi.

"is it?"

Arlong's face darkened, and he said cruelly, "Do you intend to betray the Arlong Pirates? Then I can hardly guarantee that you won't do something bad to Cocoyasi Village."

As if just realizing it, he clapped his hands and added, "Oh right, I just remembered, it seems the Navy branch's Rat Colonel went to Cocoyasi Village to investigate the thieves' stolen goods."

What he enjoys most is seeing the expression of despair on human faces.

The scene of desperately collecting Berries in the East Blue, hoping to fulfill the agreement, only to have everything wiped out at the last moment, must have made this executive break down and cry.

Thinking of this, the cruel smile on the dragon's face widened even further.

hum.

Nami, expressionless, raised her hand and fired a magical energy blast that resembled a star bullet.

【The Electric Eel, a Creation of the Demonic Path】.

A small snake crackling with electricity flew out swiftly and coiled around the magic bullet. In an instant, the magic alchemy was fully integrated, creating an improved version of the magic bullet.

In the blink of an eye, a beam of light shot straight toward the dragon.

sizzle.

Before he could even react, Ah Long was struck by the modified magic star bullet, his entire body enveloped in lightning, convulsing and trembling uncontrollably.

Instant kill.

Within the Trial Tower, the evil dragon, lacking the advantage of a fish-man's body, was instantly defeated by Nami in one move.

"I have never been a member of the Arlong Pirates, you despicable fish-man pirate, go to hell and repent!"

Chapter 158 Smoker: I'll empty the Navy's budget!

"Captain Aaron!"

Croobby, a soft-boned fishman, jumped into the water after seeing Arlong defeated.

His signature move is the Thousand-Tile Punch, which can break a thousand tiles in water. An ordinary person would surely die if they fought him in the water.

Following the ocean current, he wanted to unleash his ultimate move.

However, he felt powerless in his body, lacking the fish-man abilities that allowed him to move freely in the water, and was as weak as a human who couldn't swim.

"what happened?"

Korobi frantically climbed onto the boat, looking at his hands. He was still a fish-man, but had even his swimming advantage been taken away?

"Fool, you have no idea how mysterious and powerful the game merchant is!"

Nami coldly watched the panicked fishmen, and fired two improved star bullets in succession. The electric snakes linked them together like lightning chains, turning them all into white light.

This approach won't kill them at all.

Nami was well aware that doing this was just to recoup some interest.

The suffering of the villagers of Cocoyasia, the death of Bellemere—all of this will be settled outside the game.

"We are united fishmen, and we can never be defeated!"

"Boss A-Long, you'll soon be able to obtain powerful abilities within the Trial Tower. Just you wait!"

The Kissing Fishman and the Salt-grilled Fishman glared at Nami, but dared not make a move to retaliate.

They were afraid of being killed by Nami again, which would mean that the cost of resurrecting Beli would be another huge expense.

Luffy asked curiously, "Nami, do you have a grudge against them?"

“The village where I lived was enslaved by them. They killed my mother and imprisoned me to draw nautical charts for them.”

When Nami said those words, her gaze was unusually calm.

Perhaps it was the confidence that came from already being able to defeat the evil dragon.

She could have avoided answering or lied to Luffy, but somehow she told the truth.

"I no longer need to arm myself with lies."

The electric snake flew back and coiled around Nami's arm, rubbing against her affectionately.

The Art of Alchemy.

As long as I continue to level up and become stronger, no one in the One Piece world will be able to bully me, and then I can pursue my dreams without any worries.

"I see, then I'll knock them away!"

Luffy, unusually serious, looked at Nami with a promise in his eyes.

Nami was taken aback.

She had sought the navy's help countless times, but upon hearing the name of the evil dragon, they were either terrified or mocked and pitied her.

But the straw hat idiot in front of her didn't; she genuinely considered herself a companion.

Just like when he was fulfilling a contract with Zoro, the look in his eyes was as if helping his comrade with trouble was a matter of course.

This feeling of trust and dependence made her feel very comfortable.

"Idiot, didn't you see I've already defeated them myself? If you really want me to be your navigator, then take the reward for the first level!"

Nami laughed, took two quick steps, and considerately helped Luffy remove his straw hat, then punched him.

"really?"

Ignoring the bump on his head, Luffy exclaimed excitedly, "I'm going to take the reward from the Trial Tower!"

After they left,

The fishmen looked at each other in bewilderment, waiting for the fishman dragon to be resurrected.

The dragon's face was terribly gloomy. After looking around, he found that Nami had already left, and he was unable to vent his anger.

"If it were my original body, that level of ability wouldn't be able to harm me at all!"

"That's right, Boss Evil Dragon!"

The fishmen complimented him.

The dragon's eyes flashed with a cold light; he heard Nami's curses clearly as she lay dying.

Since arriving in the East Sea, this was the first time he had suffered such a great humiliation. Although he said those things, he coveted the abilities granted by the Reincarnation Game.

"With our Arlong Pirates working together, we're absolutely confident we can snatch the rewards from the first level!"

"Boss Ah Long, we fully support you!"

These fish-men were among those who, after the Sun Pirates of the Grand Line disbanded, resolutely chose to follow Arlong.

They are staunch supporters of the evil dragon.

"Very good, we've accumulated some money over the years, enough to cover the resurrection costs!"

"Brothers, defeat these lowly humans! We fish-men are the strongest race in this world!"

"Oh!"

"Colonel Smoker, shall we go in too?"
