Chapter 25 Nami

Nojigo knew that to the man in front of him, the only thing that was valuable about the two sisters was their bodies.

And with this man's ability, he should be able to get it easily without having to find an excuse like selling oranges.

But now the situation is stronger than people, so she can only believe that Lot came to buy oranges.

Nojigo changed her mind and began to worry again. She knew that these big shots all had strange tempers.

If estimated at normal prices, the oranges in their entire orchard are only worth 20 Baileys.

If I can't come up with 100 million Baileys worth of oranges by then, will...

Helplessly, she could only speak tentatively: "I don't know how many oranges we have here. Nami and I will go up the mountain to pick them for you first."

But I was thinking that I could delay it as long as possible. Who knows, maybe I could get away with it by acting pitiful?

"Then I'll go and help too." Lot responded as he put the last slice of orange into his mouth and stood up.

......

"Hey! Lotte, look at those two people over there. They look so strange. Their skin is green. They even have gills next to their ears."

Lot looked in the direction of Ling'er's finger, and sure enough, he saw two very wretched figures walking away into the distance.

"Could that be a fishman? I can smell a fishy odor from a long distance away." Zoro put his left hand on the hilt of the sword, his expression darkening.

Just as Lot broke off a branch from the orange tree nearby and was about to attack the fishman, his hand was grabbed.

"Lot, let's go over here quickly before those two fishmen notice us."

I looked back and saw that it was Nami.

"What's wrong?" Lot felt warm in his heart. Nami was not afraid of him because she was a big pirate. She was really a beautiful and kind person.

Nojigao also quickly explained in a low voice: "Those are the fishmen, they are from Aaron Park. If they find us, our lives will be in danger."

The two women didn't know Lot's strength, but as they had witnessed Aaron's terrifying power with their own eyes, they still didn't want Lot to be killed by Aaron.

Lot and the other three did not object, but followed Nami and her sisters lightly and moved away into the distance.

Noqi looked around vigilantly and stopped only after confirming that it was temporarily safe.

Ling Er was a little confused about the two women's vigilance: "What's wrong? Are those two fishmen scary?"

According to her observation Haki, the two mermaids could still be dealt with easily.

"You should have seen what the village looks like when you came to the island, right?" Nojigo said and looked behind him, fearing that the two fishmen would follow him.

Upon hearing this, Lotte and others nodded.

"That's..." Nojigo told the story of what happened to Kokoasi Village and the death of his adoptive mother, Bellemel.

After hearing Nojiko's resentful words, Zoro and the other two were all filled with anger.

They didn't expect that the truth would be even more cruel than Cloe had previously guessed.

Ling Er was the first one who couldn't help himself. He clenched his fists and said, "I'm going to make them all into grilled fish and throw them to the wild dogs to eat!"

Zoro grinned, "Maybe the wild dogs think they are too fishy and won't eat them."

"Hey! Speak softly! The hearing of murlocs is several times that of humans." Nojigo quickly made a gesture to keep quiet, fearing that the murlocs would hear him.

"Since the fishmen have occupied this small village, have you ever thought about leaving this island?" Cloe asked habitually, pushing his glasses.

Nojigo sighed and said, "It's not easy to leave this village where I have lived all my life. What's more..."

As she said this, she looked at Nami with pity.

"But I'm about to succeed." At this time, Nami clenched her pink fists and her confident voice sounded.

"Oh? What's going to succeed immediately? Do you have any plans?" Ling'er looked at Nami with some curiosity.

"Aarong and I have an agreement..." Nami told about the agreement between her and Arlong to buy the Cocoa Village for 100 million Beli.

"Judging from their various actions in the village, I don't think they will abide by this agreement. They may even interfere with you in order to prevent you from achieving this goal." Cloe said the somewhat cruel inference lightly.

"No, he will definitely obey." Although Nami's tone was firm, her eyes were somewhat evasive.

In fact, she herself didn't quite believe that Aaron would abide by this agreement, but the weak have no choice, right?

"By the way, how many oranges do you need? Let's pick them together, and then you should leave this island quickly. It would be bad if we were found by Aaron and the others." Nami looked up at Lot.

Looking at this girl with kind eyes, Lot felt as if something in his heart was burned, and he couldn't help but want to protect her.

Thinking about the girl in front of me, her small shoulders actually carry the life and death of this village.

I don't know how they have survived all these years. If the merfolk didn't consider themselves a superior race and look down on humans, I don't know what even more outrageous things Aaron would have done to such a delicate girl.

Feeling the pity in Lotte's eyes, Nami quickly lowered her head and looked away. Only a weak voice came out: "I... Let's go pick oranges quickly."

Lot looked at Nojigo standing beside him and asked seriously, "Aren't you afraid that we will just pick the oranges and run away? We are pirates."

Hearing this, Noqi Gao was stunned for a moment. She had thought about this possibility before, but what could she do?

Nami raised her head, looked at the others and said, "I believe you won't do this."

Lot looked at Nami in front of him and couldn't help complaining in his heart, "Silly girl, why are you so naive?"

"Well, I'll pay the money first."

As he spoke, he took out a black box from the 'system space' and handed it to Nami.

Nami took the box mechanically.

"That's 100 million Baileys."

"But we don't have oranges worth 100 million Beli here. They are only worth 200,000 or 300,000 Beli at most." For a moment, Nami's hands were shaking as she held the box.

"I just ate the oranges you grew. They were the most delicious oranges I have ever tasted. On some islands, 10 million berries can only buy kilograms of oranges of this quality." As he said that, Lot pushed the box into Nami's arms again.

"this..."

Lot bent down and stretched out his right hand to rub Nami's head.

"Why don't you go buy your village back from Aaron first? That way you can pick oranges for us peacefully, right?"

Hearing this, Zoro, Ling'er and Kro all smiled.

"Loto..." Nami sniffed.

She knew very well that Lot was kind to her. At first, she thought that Lot was helping her because he coveted the bodies of her and her two sisters.

But when she met Lotte's clear eyes, she did not see the aggressive gaze like other men.

"Go ahead, we'll wait for you here."

She didn't know why Lotte helped her, but she could only ask Lotte the reason after this incident.

Looking at the somewhat thin figure, Lotte's heart ached inexplicably.
