"If I bring you to Nami, will she give me back my allowance?"

"What?" Colonel Mouse was taken aback.

They were both shocked that Luffy dodged the bullets and surprised by what Luffy said.

A notorious pirate with a bounty of 5000 million Berries has his allowance monitored by others?!

Is this really Straw Hat Luffy?!

If so, then this must be the funniest joke he's heard all year, right?

However, time did not give Colonel Rat much time to think.

Suddenly, Luffy's arm stretched out, and he lowered his head and chuckled:

"Rubber rubber... pistol!!!"

There were no special effects, and no Pokémon moves were used.

It was just a simple punch, but under Colonel Rat's horrified gaze, it gradually grew larger...

The next second, Luffy's fist suddenly smashed into his face.

His nasal bone was broken, and his front teeth were completely shattered!

He slammed his entire body against the wall behind him and then lost consciousness completely.

With just a simple punch, Luffy easily knocked out Colonel Rat, the commander of the 16th Branch.

However, this is only to be expected.

……

……

at the same time.

Just as the Straw Hat crew's three main fighters were causing chaos at the naval base, the Going Merry, propelled by the waves, walked openly through the gates that had been blasted open at the naval base.

"Then, the task of watching the ship is yours, Usopp!"

Red, who had already learned how to float and fall, flew into the air with Nami and waved to Usopp.

The naval soldiers at the base entrance had already been frightened by the previous few shots and had taken refuge inside the base.

The main reason for leaving Usopp to guard the Merry was simply out of concern for any unforeseen events.

This naval branch base is much larger than the 153rd branch.

Even with Colonel Rat embezzling military pay and driving away a large number of soldiers, the entire naval base still had nearly a thousand naval soldiers.

That's enough for Luffy and his crew to play with for a while.

Anyway, most of the soldiers who are still here know what Colonel Rat has done and are willing to help him.

They can no longer be considered pure marines, so it's good that Luffy and his crew teach them a lesson.

Using their flying abilities, Akane and Nami went directly to the top floor of the naval base.

In this operation, their group had a clear division of labor.

Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji will handle the combat portion and draw the Navy's attention.

Red and Nami, on the other hand, are searching for Colonel Rat's treasure trove and evidence of his years of collusion with the Arlong Pirates.

It can be said that the reason why the Arlong Pirates have been able to act so arrogantly in this sea area for so many years is entirely due to the protection they have been protecting!

This time, the Straw Hat crew not only want these guys dead, but also want to expose everything to the public and completely ruin the reputation of the gang of thieves led by Colonel Rat!

In fact, apart from maintaining the rule of the Celestial Dragons, the Navy is mostly composed of righteous individuals.

However, there are corrupt officials and corruption everywhere.

This is the evil in human nature, and it cannot be eradicated.

After the Arlong Pirates were exposed, whether it was belated justice or to maintain the image of the Navy, the Navy would inevitably provide some support and compensation to the residents of villages such as Cocoyasi Village.

Furthermore, this area will definitely be heavily guarded by the navy for a short period of time, preventing pirates from appearing in this sea area again.

And that's exactly what the Straw Hat crew wanted to see!

This was also the greatest way that Red could think of to comfort Nami and the persecuted residents.

……

……

The two remained silent as they quickly searched the rooms in the naval base.

Using Nami's years of experience in theft, they quickly located Colonel Rat's treasure room.

Nami unleashed a 100,000-volt attack, instantly melting the metal lock and causing it to fall off.

As the creaking and grinding sounds began, a scene of dazzling golden light suddenly appeared before Akane and Nami.

"My goodness!" Nami exclaimed in surprise, her eyes instantly turning into the shape of gold coins.

Before Crimson could speak, she leaped into the sea of ​​gold and jewels, picking up a pile of them.

Crimson, standing nearby, also walked over, and looking at the stacks of Beli and jewels, couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement:

"Those merfolk are surprisingly generous!"

"How much money must have been bribed to Colonel Rat to amass such wealth!"

"That's about right, it'll need at least 10 billion Berries, right!?"

Red didn't know how to judge the value of jewelry; he was just talking casually.

However, it should be noted that regardless of the value of these treasures, they were all squandered by Colonel Rat and the Arlong Pirates.

Over the years, the blood they've sucked in these waters is far, far greater than what can be seen!

"........."

The excited Nami suddenly quieted down.

Clearly, the crimson-red sentiment had inadvertently touched a nerve with her.

Nami looked at the gold coins in her hand, her expression changing.

She then realized that all this money came from the villagers' hard-earned money.

For a moment, Nami hesitated, wondering whether she should return the treasure to the villagers.

Red gently patted her shoulder and comforted her:

"Don't worry, Nami, don't overthink it."

"This money should have been ours to keep."

"After all, we are just a group of pirates. If we do too many things that are not in line with our principles, it will only make things more complicated."

"It would be bad if the Navy used this as a reason to conclude that the villagers were colluding with pirates."

"On the contrary... if the Navy does not want to lose the sense of justice it carries, I think the villagers should be able to receive appropriate compensation."

As he spoke, Crimson found a suitable angle and took a picture of the treasure in front of him.

And the navy's seagull insignia was placed in the most prominent position in the photo.

"That makes sense!"

With the crimson's comfort, Nami decisively turned her sorrow into joy, and her eyes shone with golden light once more.

The two of them packed all the treasure into sacks and left them in the treasure room, waiting for Luffy and the others to carry them away later.

Meanwhile, Crimson and Nami continued their exploration, preparing to find evidence of the crimes committed by Colonel Rat over the years.

However, just as they passed through a dormitory area, Nami suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"what happened?"

Red turned around in confusion and asked.

Nami frowned slightly and replied:

"Crimson red, something seems off."

"I feel like there's something in this room that's inexplicably drawing me in!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Nami's hand seemed to move on its own, a sudden surge of electricity broke the lock, and she opened the door.

Crimson curiously came closer.

He then saw...

In the very center of the room stood an ornate and valuable knife rack.

On the sword rack was a beautifully crafted longsword with azure lightning-shaped blade patterns.

"This... seems to be a naval lieutenant commander's room!"

Looking at the naval uniform hanging on the wall, Crimson pondered for a moment and said.

Although it can't compare to Colonel Mouse's office, this room is still quite exquisite and luxurious in terms of both decoration and furnishings.

It must be the room of someone with a certain status in the base.

However, Nami seemed not to have heard Red's warning at this moment.

With a puzzled look in her eyes, she walked straight toward the long sword in front of her. Only when she picked up the sword did the itchy feeling in her heart completely disappear.

The next second, Nami's face lit up with surprise.

She was familiar with that feeling from just now.

This is just the first time in the real world!

and so……

A thought flashed through her mind, and Nami immediately turned to look at Akane.

Before Nami could speak, Akame instead said:
