Chapter 33: The bond of mutual care!

"Until now, I have been in the Arlong Pirates for 8 years..."

The two sat side by side on the bed, and Nami shared her story with Luo Lan.

Being able to tell the story in her heart, Nami felt more free than ever before.

At this point, Nami suddenly imitated the movements of a cat's claws with her little fists and said very cutely: "So, although I am a little thief, I have never stolen money from ordinary people~~"

"So, you wanted to steal our money because we were pirates?"

Luo Lan smiled and asked.

Nami nodded, a playful smile on her face, "Yeah! Because pirates are bad guys, stealing their money is considered a good deed!"

Hearing this, Luo Lan refused to agree.

"I don't agree with you. Who says pirates are all bad people?"

"Of course! There are no good pirates. Especially those damn bastards from the Fishman Pirates, they've ruined my hometown!"

When she said this, Nami thought of her deceased Aunt Bellemere, and her eyes suddenly became red again.

"what about me?"

Luo Lan pointed at himself.

If there are no good pirates, then am I not a human being?

"Not really." Nami answered without hesitation.

"Why~"

Luo Lan shrugged and motioned for Nami to explain.

Nami pointed to the corner of the room, "Those Baileys, over 1 million. Didn't you steal them from the civilians along the way?"

"of course not!"

Luo Lan shook his head. "These are all the stolen money that Colonel Monka, the commander of the naval base in Shields Town, has seized from captured pirates over the years."

"navy?"

"Wait, you said Monka!?"

Hearing the name, Nami was surprised. "How could the guy known as the Taboo of Shields Town give you the stolen money?"

"It seems you know his notoriety. Yes, he committed many evil deeds in Shields Town, killing innocent people. Luffy and I went to rescue Zoro and defeated him. The navy and civilians there were liberated. Then we distributed the money that was extorted from the civilians to the civilians, and this stolen money was taken by us."

Luo Lan explained.

"You actually defeated Monka!?"

After hearing Luo Lan's words, Nami opened her mouth and was even more shocked!

Luo Lan nodded. "Yes. This is not a secret. The East China Sea News Agency should publish this matter in the newspaper soon. Then you will know that what I said is true."

"Oh, no, it wasn't. I didn't doubt you. I was just surprised."

How could Nami doubt a man who believed in herself so much?

Moreover, after learning that the Bailey in Luo Lan's room was just stolen money from pirates, Nami was still very happy.

Hmm~

I was right about him!

"You guys are really amazing!"

Nami gave a thumbs up, her eyes filled with envy and admiration.

If they could help me...

Do not!

No~~

As soon as the thought of asking Luo Lan for help came into her mind, Nami immediately drove this absurd idea out of her mind.

Even though Monka is powerful, he's still far behind the Arlong Pirates!!

If the navy was effective, how could the Dragon Pirates have been able to wreak havoc in the Medae Islands for so many years?

They can defeat Colonel Monka, but the strength of murlocs is naturally 10 times that of humans!

If they really go after the other dragon, wouldn't that kill them?

No, no, no~~

Nami firmly rejected the idea of asking for help.

and……

She has her own plans and will be able to redeem the village sooner or later.

Her eyes inadvertently fell on the treasure chest filled with Baileys, and Nami's heart suddenly moved.

correct!

If I could borrow money from Luo Lan, then...

Thinking of this, although Nami found it difficult to speak, for the sake of the village, she still spoke with a blushing face.

"Luo Lan, can you lend me some money?"

After saying this, Nami quickly lowered her head.

She knew that her words were too abrupt, and the other party had no reason to lend her the money.

She had wanted to steal money before, and even if Luo Lan refused her, she had no complaints.

"Is it about redeeming the village?"

"Well, I've saved a lot of money, but I'm still short of over 4000 million. I know it's a huge sum, but please believe me, I will definitely pay you back!"

It's always difficult to ask for a loan.

Perhaps worried that Luo Lan wouldn't agree, Nami quickly added, "Don't worry, I won't run away. If I can't pay it back, I'd be willing to work for you for the rest of my life."

work to earn a living?

impossible!

Impossible in a lifetime!

You are a partner of our Straw Hat Pirates!

Luo Lan shook his head: "It's impossible to borrow money~"

Nami's heart sank!

really……

How could anyone be willing to lend that much money?

But her sadness only lasted for a second before Luo Lan's hand fell on her shoulder.

"But... the matter of the Arlong Pirates is up to us."

Ah~?

Regarding the Arlong Pirates...

“No, no, no, no!!”

Not only did Nami not show any joy, but her face became nervous.

She flatly refused: "If you don't want to lend me the money, I have no complaints. But you really should stop interfering in the affairs of the Arlong Pirates."

"Are you worried that we are no match for the Arlong Pirates?"

It can be seen that Nami does not want to protect the Arlong Pirates, but she does not have enough understanding of the current strength of the Straw Hat Pirates.

This lovely girl actually doesn't want them to "die".

"Although you defeated Monka, you don't understand the power of the murlocs at all! Those guys are naturally more than 10 times stronger than humans. If you encounter them, you will definitely be killed by them!"

Nami didn't want to hide anything, so she told him everything and warned Luo Lan not to get upset.

"Don't worry about that. I've heard about those guys from the Arlong Pirates. We can definitely handle them."

Luo Lan was not worried about this.

Even in the original plot, the Straw Hat Pirates could defeat the Arlong Pirates as long as the members remained the same.

And now~~

Our captain has already entered third gear, can't he kill a few of you rotten fish and shrimps?

To put it bluntly, it's not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth!!

"I won't listen! You don't understand murlocs at all! Anyway, I don't need your help with my affairs! I can save up enough money by myself."

Nami simply covered her ears, put her legs in her arms, and buried her head in her knees.

No matter what you say, I won't agree!

I..., how could I possibly watch you die...

Seeing Nami's persistence, Luo Lan was still very moved.

Although the method is wrong, Nami is indeed considering the members of the Straw Hat Pirates.

After thinking about it, Luo Lan didn't want to argue about this matter anymore.

Since you want to solve it with money, I'll give you money.

Anyway, in the end you will find that money can't solve the problems of the Arlong Pirates.

When the time comes, we still have to rely on our fists...

Turning his head to look at the cute Nami who was covering her ears, Luo Lan reached out and grabbed her little hands, pried them apart, and said with a smile: "Okay! Then I'll lend you the money."

"No, no, no..."

Nami thought Luo Lan insisted on fighting the Arlong Pirates and was about to refuse when she realized something was wrong.

“Really…really…?”

After thinking about it, Nami felt that asking the other party to borrow money in this situation seemed like moral kidnapping, so she pursed her lips: "If it's really reluctant..., then don't do it~"

"What's the point of forcing yourself? 1 million Baileys and 5000 million Baileys are the same to us. They're both enough for our expenses. As for you, didn't you say you'd work for us if you can't pay? I agree to this condition!"

Luo Lan smiled bitterly in her heart.

Lending money and comforting the borrower, I, as a creditor...

When these words came out, Nami was completely moved!

"Luo Lan..., I... I... I..."

Nami's lips trembled with excitement and she couldn't even speak clearly.

With money, the goal she has been striving for for so many years can be achieved!

With money, her miserable days in the Arlong Pirates will be over!

With money, the village can be reborn! !

Thousands of words finally condensed into one sentence: "Thank you... woo woo woo..."

Nami was made to cry again~

"Crying again..., you little thief~"

Luo Lan smiled, turned Nami's head over and pressed it on his shoulder.
