Take it, don't worry.
Will thought to himself as he smiled at Nami, who was almost drooling at the gemstone.
The origin of this gem was not simple.
This was a deep-sea treasure produced by Fishmen Island. It was a gift from Her Highness Yi Ji, the princess of Fishmen Island, when she attended the World Conference decades ago and signed a friendship treaty with the Kingdom of Arabastan. For this, the Kingdom of Arabastan also took out an equivalent treasure, which was worth more than 100 million Bailey.
It was…one billion!
If…the evil dragon saw this gem, what would happen?
At the thought of this, Will's smile became even more 'harmonious'.
Although Nami felt that it was a little strange, she still smiled back at this rich and unbelievably generous young master.
With this gem…it would be enough to buy back Kekeyaxi Village from the evil dragon!
As the representative of the village, Ah Jian signed the contract with Will.
" Then I won't bother you." Will stood up." I have something else to do."”
"Thank you." Ah Jian finally felt relieved.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………
Although he had used some underhanded methods, Will believed that his goal was pure. He just wanted Nami to see in advance that everything he had done was nothing but a joke in front of the Evil Dragon Pirates 'tyranny.
It was meaningless.
A pirate group that collected ten million Bailey from Kekeyaxi Village every month and had collected more than one billion Bailey in protection fees in the past six years, why would they sell Kekeyaxi Village to Nami for one hundred million Bailey?
What a joke.
In the original novel, it was mentioned that the Evil Dragon Pirates would collect 100,000 Bailey from each person every month, and 50,000 Bailey for the children. Otherwise, they would be killed. In the end, when Nami bid farewell to the villagers of Kekeyaxi Village, it was obvious that the population of Kekeyaxi Village was at least a few hundred. Even if there were 200 people, it would be at least 10 million Bailey, which was more than 100 million Bailey in a year.
It could be said that Kekeyaxi Village might have been a rather wealthy village in the past, but ever since the arrival of the evil dragon, it might have really reached the point of being a lamp that ran out of oil. In Ah Jian's eyes, the 100 million Bailey that Weier had earned this year was their hope of survival. As long as they could fill the hole of the evil dragon pirates, even if Juzi did not earn a single cent, he felt that it was enough.

Nami excitedly held the Heart of the Ocean and rushed into the Evil Dragon Pirates 'encampment.
"Evil dragon! I did it!"
She looked at her dragon with interest and shouted loudly.
The tall, blue-skinned Murloc with a sharp nose smiled as he raised his glass and faced Nami.
"Have a drink, our voyager.”
The surrounding murlocs also laughed and looked at her. Almost no one took her words seriously.
Nami finally took out the Heart of the Deep Sea. This huge gem shone brightly under the sunlight, causing all the murlocs present to stop laughing. They stared at the gem with disbelief.
"This Heart of the Deep Sea is worth 100 million Bailey! I want to buy Kekeyaxi Village. This is the evil dragon you told me about!”
Nami felt that the atmosphere was a little off, so she stared at the dragon and said.
In the next second, her vision blurred. A hand grabbed her neck and easily took the gem from her hand. Then, he stared at it for a long time. Finally, he leaned his face close to Nami and looked at her with a terrifying expression.
"This gem…Where did you get it?”
Nami was a little suffocated, and the evil dragon casually threw her to the ground.
"Cough cough! You said that as long as I can pay 100 million Bailey, you will sell me the Kekeyaxi Village!”
The evil dragon's expression was still very gloomy. This gem reminded him of some unpleasant memories. He did not answer Nami's question and only said coldly,"
"100 million Bailey? What do you take this gem for? This is the secret treasure of the Murlocs, the Heart of the Deep Sea that is worth one billion Bailey. It was given to the shameless humans by someone decades ago…In other words, this belongs to us Murlocs. I want to thank you for returning it to me, Nami!”
Nami's body trembled. One billion Bailey?! A secret treasure of the Merman Race?
"Hahahaha!"
The surrounding murlocs burst into laughter.
"There's a banquet today!"
Nami's eyes instantly turned red, and tears began to flow from her eyes.
"You…did you never think of selling the village to me?”
She finally asked the question that she had been afraid to ask. In fact, as smart as she was, how could she not know that the evil dragon would not sell Kekeyaxi Village to her so easily? However, this was still a hope. What if she succeeded?
After all, she had no other choice.
Everyone's smiles stopped, and the evil dragon's expression became a little terrifying.
"Since you've asked me directly, I'll tell you directly. Nami, you're a voyager that I value. Even if you save up 100 million Bailey, I'll never keep my promise. Why would he keep his promise to humans? Nami, you're too naive!"
Nami was completely speechless by these words. She slowly stood up under the mocking laughter of the merfolk and walked out of the pirate station in a daze. She no longer had the cunning look of the past, only despair and depression.
Will stood in front of her, blocking her way. Nami raised her head listlessly and saw that the young man's expression was still the same. She recalled the Heart of the Deep Sea that the young man had told her was worth 100 million Bailey…
That was not 100 million Bailey, but 1 billion Bailey!
How could Kekeyaxi Village afford this money?
"You already know about the evil dragon? I'm sorry, I... lost your gemstone.”
She thought that Jian and Nouqiko had told Will about the evil dragon. Otherwise, how could he have found her? Finally, she couldn't help but cry. She didn't dare to tell Will that his gem was already in the evil dragon's hands. Nami was afraid that he would go to the evil dragon and get hurt. Will gently leaned her head into his arms and sighed.
"Gemstones are not important, Nami.”
The important thing is you.
Will asked as he stroked her head.
"Next…is the matter between me and them.”
Nami stopped crying and grabbed Will's clothes tightly.
"Don't go! I really lost it! I…will return it to you!"
Even if it meant…spending the rest of his life!
At this moment, the only person who could help Kekeyaxi Village was this man. If anything happened to him, then everything would be over. Will had become Nami's last hope.
Even if she died, she didn't want anything to happen to Will.
Under Nami's gaze, Will slowly took off his thick coat and placed it gently in her arms, revealing the exquisite clothes inside. He raised his finger, and a dazzling radium light lit up on his fingertip, making Nami unable to open her eyes.
"Nami, what would you like to do if you could be free?”
As soon as he finished speaking.
"Boom!"
The laser shot through the sky, piercing through everything in front of Nami's shocked eyes. Then, it exploded with an earth-shattering sound. The tall buildings of the Evil Dragon Base were destroyed, and a huge pit was blasted.
The countless sea maps that Nami had drawn for the Evil Dragon Pirates in the past floated in the air like white snow. They were contaminated by the heat of the laser and burned into ashes.
The strong wind blew at Will's clothes and hair, and endless light rose in front of his eyes. He was like a god of the human world, coming to save the suffering people. This scene was fixed in Nami's eyes for eternity. She would never forget this young man who stood in front of her like a god descending from the heavens.
