Chapter 73: Add money!

Let’s turn our attention back to Kokoyasi Village.

Aaron moved out the warship that had not been used for a long time, and the fishermen loaded all the supplies they had looted over the years onto the ship.

Yun Tianxiang stood by the swimming pool of the A'long Empire and invited Xiao Ba. Xiao Ba rejected the invitation verbally and said that he wanted to follow Brother A'long back to the Grand Line, which made Yun Tianxiang very depressed.

"It seems that you like my brother very much." A'long swam out of the sea, he sat aside, and looked at Yun Tianxiang with a smile.

"Aaron. The 10 billion Bailey business is still valid." Yun Tianxiang looked at Aaron and said something tempting to him.

"One billion? Tell me about it." It was impossible for Aaron not to be tempted, because he firmly believed that only money would not deceive him.

"Lend us Xiao Ba. We will bring Xiao Ba back to the Dragon Palace Kingdom, and I will pay you 10 billion Baileys then. Of course, it will not take more than two years. This deal is very cost-effective, right?" Yun Tianxiang patiently persuaded A Long to sell his companions to him.

"Asshole! Who do you think I am? Xiao Ba is my brother, the most important compatriot!" Aaron roared loudly, looking like he was about to attack.

The only thing Yun Tianxiang liked about Xiao Ba was that he was Rayleigh's savior. Seeing that A'long disagreed, he looked at A'long and fell silent.

Hachi once saved Rayleigh when he was a child, and now he is 38 years old. So, it is estimated that Rayleigh suffered a shipwreck 30 years ago or even earlier, which means that the Roger Pirates are not very strong, or in other words, the silver pirates who were once active on the sea are qualified to compete with the fleet of the Pirate King Roger.

So don't think that the few brothers that Blackbeard brought into the city look weak and have no strength. In fact, they are all people who compete with Roger, Whitebeard, and Golden Lion. They are just remnants of the old era, and it is not their turn to show off.

Being stared at by Yun Tianxiang, A Long said confidently: "You have to pay more!"

Touch~

Yun Tianxiang and Xiao Ba's feet were twitching in the air.

I want more money, Aaron.

"Brother A'long!" Xiao Balian looked at A'long with tears in his eyes. He couldn't believe that A'long sold him out for money.

"Xiao Ba. I'm sorry for putting you through this for a while. See you in Fishman Island!" Aaron patted Xiao Ba's shoulder vigorously.

Yun Tianxiang looked at A-long, his mouth twitching, "Two billion. No more."

"Deal! You have to take good care of Xiao Ba! Otherwise, I won't let you go!" Aaron bared his sharp teeth, showing his fangs.

“Don’t worry. This is the thug I hired at 2 billion. I will definitely take better care of him than you do!” Yun Tianxiang put his arm around Xiao Ba’s shoulder and walked back towards Kokoa West Village.

Aaron took a lingering look at the Aaron Empire, then boarded the ship with his compatriots and left the island he had ruled for eight years.

"Xiao Ba, why are you so sad? Smile." Yun Tianxiang felt that Xiao Ba was not in a good mood, so he began to tease Xiao Ba.

Xiao Ba's thick arms pushed Yun Tianxiang away again. He looked at Yun Tianxiang seriously and asked loudly, "Why me? Why did you borrow me from Brother A'long?"

"Why? I like you a little more. You have the temperament of our pirate group (silly and silly temperament)~" Yun Tianxiang touched his chin, thinking that after meeting Pluto Rayleigh, Xiao Ba only had a silly and humorous temperament. This is very much in line with the needs of their pirate group, and he is a rare talent!

"Is it really like this?" Xiao Ba looked naive and a little unconvinced.

"That's it." Yun Tianxiang brought Xiao Ba back to Kekoyasi Village.

The banquet was over at this time.

Nami looked at Yun Tianxiang bringing back Xiao Ba, and came over with some displeasure. She pulled Yun Tianxiang's ear aside, looked at Xiao Ba with resentment, and asked: "What's going on! Why is Xiao Ba here!"

"Nami. Be patient. I decided to hire a fishman to join our pirate group after comprehensive consideration. Although I know that the Arlong Pirates have caused great damage to Cocoyasi Village and you, this does not affect our hiring them to ensure our safety. In addition, even if the Arlong Pirates leave, can you guarantee that this place will not be invaded by other pirates?" Yun Tianxiang looked at Nami sincerely.

In the original novel, Joseph and Johnny stayed, but now they are useless. Previously, this place was located in a remote corner of the East China Sea, and not many pirates paid attention to it. But in the future, many pirates will gather here in his trade route.

Nami fell silent after hearing this. As a thief who had been stealing treasures from a pirate group in the East China Sea alone for eight years, she could certainly understand what Yun Tianxiang meant by this, but she just couldn't swallow this.

"Moreover, there is a natural advantage in hiring Xiao Ba. As long as Xiao Ba comes back from time to time, outsiders will still think that the Along Pirate Group is entrenched here. Ordinary pirates will not dare to come here at all. It will be relatively safe here. In addition, don't you want this place to become prosperous?" Yun Tianxiang turned Nami's head towards the orange grove.

Seeing the orange grove, Nami thought of Melbelle whom she had seen in the space before. She felt very sad when she thought that Melbelle died for her and she had to be a companion of Aaron now.

Nami shed tears silently.

Yun Tianxiang gently wiped Nami's tears with his hands, "Nami, I know you feel bad. But with a fish-man partner, you can do seabed salvage in your spare time. What if, what if you salvage a devil fruit with the same ability as that rabbit?"

"I can't argue with you. You always bully me. The monthly salary needs to be raised! I want 10 million berries a month! No delay in payment!" Nami angrily hit his chest with her little fist.

Yun Tianxiang was hit so hard that he vomited blood, and the blood spurted out directly fell into Nami's big thunder.

"No way. Yun Tianxiang. Don't scare me." Nami looked at Yun Tianxiang who was foaming at the mouth and was a little scared.

"It's okay, just take a rest, it will be fine." Yun Tianxiang's eyes went dark and he fell backwards.

"Hey! Yun Tianxiang! Don't fall asleep! Everyone, think of a solution quickly. After this guy fell asleep, no one knew where he would go."

When Sauron saw Yun Tianxiang lying on the ground with his eyes closed, he immediately panicked.

Last time this guy fell asleep, but it took a long time for him to meet up with them.

"The power of the devil fruit will lose its power when it encounters sea water. You can put him in the sea water." Xiao Ba picked up Yun Tianxiang and ran towards the water tank beside him. He put Yun Tianxiang into the water tank and then ran to the seaside.

"Why is this guy here too?" Sanji looked at Hachi who flashed by, a little confused.

"It's the fishman hired by Yun Tianxiang." Nami was a little unhappy.

"Let's go. Zoro. Sanji. Everything is ready. We can set off." At this time, Luffy turned back from Merry and told the two to leave.

He looked at Nami and invited, "Nami. Come be my navigator."

Nami looked at Luffy's outstretched hand, she tilted her head and crossed her hands proudly: "If you don't get a million in salary a month, I won't let you go!"

"Yoshi. Let's go!"

Luffy shouted happily.

At the port, outside the window of the Merry were orange trees, which were specially requested by Nami.

Yun Tianxiang was awakened by the cold sea water, but because of the sea water he was powerless, so he was trapped in the water tank, weakly calling for help.

Luffy and the others were on the deck, waiting for Nami, who had packed her luggage, to board the ship.

In front of a tombstone in an orange grove on the outskirts of Kekoyasi Village.

Nami and her sworn sister Noki knelt in front of the tombstone...
