One Piece: My Infinity Gauntlet!

Chapter 19 - 19 - The Decaying Navy

The next day when they met again, for some reason, Will always felt that Nami strangely looked at him, including Nojiko.

And this strange wasn't even the same kind of strange, which somehow made Will feel a little creepy.

"Hey, do you really not want Arlong treasure?"

Nami had a rare good night's sleep last night and didn't expect this guy to be surprisingly 'cowardly'... if he really thought he could do something to her because she is drunk, then this little bit of alcohol was a little too little for her!

The drunken goddess of a thousand drinks is no joke!

Somehow Nami's affection for him grew a little more, maybe not enough to translate into affection, but at least it's not disliked.

And knowing that she doesn't hate him is a good start!

Will was pondering how to abduct her and run away, but when he heard what she said, he couldn't help but ask in curiosity.  .

"Is the Arlong Pirates rich?"

"Sort of, I estimated a little less than 100 million beli when I cleaned up yesterday."

"That much!"

Will was surprised, and then noticed Nami's seemingly smiling expression.

"Ahem! I just didn't realize this guy had scavenged so much wealth."

"A lot? That's only half of it, and the other half was swallowed by the navy that runs the place."

If the pirates and the navy hadn't been working together, how could Arlong have taken over 20 villages in the East Blue Sea and gotten away with it!

Will didn't find it surprising, but Koby, who was with him, didn't believe it at all!

"How could it be! How could a righteous navy accept bribes from pirates!"

"Your son?"

"Poof! Cough cough..."

Nami's unnoticeable strike almost killed Will!

"Outrageous! Unless you want to be his mother, then I'll begrudgingly admit it."

Nami's face flushed slightly, then immediately gave him a vicious stare.

Ever since Arlong had been killed, she seemed to have regained her nature and was rude to Will, her great benefactor.

"Kid, I don't know what kind of environment you grew up in, but I have no reason to lie to you, this is the evidence that was found yesterday, it records every 'tax' that was handed over to Colonel Mouse by Arlong Pirates, as well as the evidence that Colonel Mouse helped Arlong Pirates to cover up the crime and plant the blame on others. "

"If you don't believe me, take a good look!"

"See how ugly you see the Navy, which stands for justice, really is!"

Nami pulled out a thick account book from her pocket and tossed it to Koby.

After receiving it, Koby looked at Will cautiously before reading it through while gritting his teeth.

The expression on Koby's face was getting uglier and uglier the more he read it until he became numb to it.

It didn't even take Will himself to do it, but Nami's casually throwing in the evidence made half of Koby's good intentions for the Navy crumble!

The other half of the faith probably won't last much longer, because...

"Oh no! A navy has landed!"

A villager came running with a panicked look.

Koby looked at him blankly, why was he so frightened? Shouldn't they become relieved when the navy comes?

In the eyes of these villagers, has the Navy been equated with the vicious pirates?

Even Nami panicked for a moment, and now she has evidence of Arlong collusion with the Navy, and if the Navy finds out that Arlong Pirates have been wiped out, they'll do anything to silence them!

"What to do?"

It turned out that unknowingly, Nami had already made Will her main focus.

"This question should not be asked of me, but of yourself, are you ready to resist?"

"If things really come to the worst."

"For this, you may be away from your beloved hometown and your family, and is this a price you can accept?"

As Will's questions became more and more frequent, the expression on Nami's face became more and more confused.

Will smiled and shook his head, even after two years, it was so difficult to make her make this decision, let alone now.

He placed his hand gently over Nami's head and said, "Don't think about it if you can't understand it, go over there and take a look, what happens next will determine your answer."

"And whatever your final answer is, I will make it happen!"

"And I promise it with my beloved gauntlet!"

Nami bit her lip and looked at him with a complicated look, then finally nodded.

...

"The Arlong Pirates were actually wiped out? Who made it?"

Colonel Mouse was shocked, he originally came over this time to collect 'taxes', but he didn't expect to hear such news, really...

"It is said to be a pirate hunter who came over with the merchant ship, the reason for the conflict is unclear, but the other party is so strong that he single-handedly wiped out all of Arlong group, and is now inside the village."

"What about the treasures of the Pirates?" Colonel Mouse's eyes flashed.

"The villagers took it all and said they wanted to return it to its rightful owner!"

"Nonsense! The wealth scavenged by the pirates should naturally be turned over to the Navy for uniform disposal!"

"Your Excellency is right, let them all spit it out later!"

"No, since they took money from the Pirates, that proves that they are in collusion with Arlong and his group!"

"Gather all the villagers in the square later, and remember, leave no one behind!"

"And later, write in the newspaper that the villagers of Cocoyashi Village collaborated with the Pirates intending to attack the navy, and then under the leadership of the Brave and Heroic Lord Mouse, the Pirates was defeated and the East Blue Sea returned to its peaceful life!"

"Do you hear me?"

"Yes! I know what to do!"

The adjutant responded with cold sweat on his face.

He is not sure if he underestimated his boss's methods, but he doesn't think he will let him go even if he wants money.

He blamed himself for not being born into a rich family...

An hour later, more than 300 villagers were forcibly brought to the square by the navy with an evil face.

In the front was Nami, Will and the police stationed here, Genzo.

All the treasures collected from the Arlong side were also piled up in the square.

"That's all?"

"Back to my lord, all the things we found from the Arlong base are here, I dare not hide them."

Genzo bowed groggily, hoping to use the riches to get rid of the navy.

Koby, who was inconspicuous in the crowd, was clenching his fist in a death grip, gazing at everything in front of him with fire in his eyes.

Will said that he would witness the downfall of the navy with his own eyes.

And after this was over, it was time for him to choose...
