Only then did Nami notice that her sleeve had been torn, revealing a special tattoo.
This is also the pain in her heart!
"Since you already know that I am a member of the Arlong Pirates, let me go immediately. Otherwise, when Boss Arlong comes looking for you, you will all die."
This is both a threat and the truth.
Nami didn't want innocent people to be implicated because of her.
"Wow, that sounds terrifying. By the way, what's the bounty on this dragon?"
Lafayette's voice immediately rang out, "2000 million berries."
Jay had a puzzled look on his face. "Only 2000 million berries? Shouldn't it be 2 million berries?"
Lafayette was also amused. "Any pirate with a bounty over 2 million must be in the Grand Line. How could there be a pirate with a bounty of million in the East China Sea?"
Jay thought to himself, "That might not be the case. A certain red-haired guy often comes to the East China Sea for tourism. Oh, and there's also the Revolutionary Army..."
"Are you a cadre of the Dragon Gang?"
"That's it."
Nami said stubbornly, "Dragon...Boss's strength cannot be quantified by the bounty."
That's the truth...
Jay looked at Nami in surprise.
However, with his current strength, it is more than enough to defeat a dragon.
What's more, he has Bonis and Lafayette by his side.
It's almost impossible to lose.
"Then let's get to the point. How much money are you prepared to pay to redeem yourself?"
"Eh?"
"You're not so naive as to let me just let you go."
Nami gritted her teeth and said, "There's another bag of 'stuff' I've hidden. Let me go first, and I'll take you there to get it."
Whenever she thought about how the little money she had worked so hard to earn was now being given to others, she felt so painful that she couldn't breathe.
But there's still a chance...
Nami cheered herself up in her heart.
Then she heard the other party say in surprise: "Is that your stuff? That's the stolen property you stole, it's evidence!"
"And you thought you were hiding well, didn't you?"
Lafayette immediately took out a black bag from behind the door and threw it next to Nami with a bang.
Nami looked down and almost fainted.
She was obviously hiding very well, why was she here?
That’s of course because Jay and his crew have been eyeing her for a long time!
Jay has the ability of [tactile perception]. In the middle of the night, Nami was jumping around outside, opening doors and stealing things. If he didn't notice it at all, he might as well just commit suicide by slitting his throat.
Similarly, as a killer, Bonis is naturally very vigilant.
Not to mention Lafayette, a user of the mythical beast-type Siren form who is extremely sensitive to sound.
Chapter 82 Let’s Sink into the Sea (Please Collect and Read!)
It can be said that except for Buck who was sleeping soundly, Nami's actions throughout the night were under the watchful eyes of Jay and others.
This naturally includes the place where Nami hides things.
There's no need to look for it, just go and get it.
Nami's face suddenly turned pale, and her last hope of escaping (with money) was shattered.
"Well, you don't seem very wealthy. Let's ask this another way. How much is your dragon boss willing to pay to ransom you?"
"Haha, I'm sorry to disappoint you. Actually, I was forced to join the evil dragon's gang. I'm not an official, so if you want to use me to threaten him, it will be in vain."
Nami knew that if the dragon was alarmed by something like this, there would only be two results.
One is that she was killed on the spot.
The other is that she was taken back by the evil dragon, who then exploited her even more, making it more difficult for her to redeem the village.
She couldn't accept either of these two outcomes.
It would be better to try to talk to the other party. After all, the worst outcome is death.
Judging from the current contact, the other party does not seem to be a vicious person.
"In that case, I'll have to hand you over to the Navy. It just so happens that I have something to do at the 16th Marine Branch Base..."
"No, never!"
When Nami heard about the 16th Marine Branch Base, a wretched man with a rat mustache immediately appeared in front of her eyes!
He was so scared that his face turned pale.
"Alright, then let it sink into the sea to save us the trouble."
Nami was startled and was about to say something, but was interrupted by a dull blow.
After a while, a lifeboat was launched into the sea.
Taking advantage of the night, Lafayette flew down, threw Nami onto the boat, and then quickly rowed away.
It didn't fly back until dawn.
. . . . . .
"Money! My money is gone!"
A new day starts with a high-decibel scream!
Then there was a mixture of panicked and angry voices from many people.
Soon, everyone on the ship gathered outside.
Because many people's property was stolen.
At this time, they were collectively asking the captain for an explanation.
The captain also complained bitterly.
After hearing about this, he was not stupid and immediately thought of the girl who was rescued onto the boat yesterday.
We just rescued people onto the boat yesterday, and then that same night, so many people’s belongings were stolen. How could it be such a coincidence!
He immediately went to check the room assigned to the girl.
Sure enough, the room was empty!
There is also one less lifeboat!
At this point, things are almost clear.
But how dare the captain tell everyone the answer?
The lost property could not be found and the criminal escaped.
The angry passengers would tear him to pieces!
And with this kind of thing happening, his career as a captain is basically over.
Just when everyone was feeling discouraged, a voice came from behind them.
"What are you arguing about so early in the morning? I know where your lost things are."
When everyone heard this, they all turned around and looked behind them.
A young man in a windbreaker and a baseball cap threw two bags of "stolen goods" onto the deck.
Some valuables were scattered out.
"That's my necklace!"
"And my earrings and ring!"
"How is this going."
Someone excitedly came over to take the things back, but Jay stepped on the bag.
Bowness, Lafayette, and Buck immediately stepped forward to separate the crowd.
"What are you doing?"
"That's my thing!"
Buck glared and said, "Shut up!"
"Captain, come here."
"Here we go...Everyone, please make way."
Another village has a bright future!
When the captain, who had regained hope, ran over, he almost knelt down to Jay, benefactor!
As long as the things can be found, he can handle the rest.
"Yesterday, a little thief was stealing things all over the ship. When I discovered him, he immediately hijacked a lifeboat and escaped. However, I was able to recover the stolen goods."
"The stolen goods are now handed over to you. You are responsible for registering them one by one and returning them to their original owners."
"If anyone deliberately causes trouble or falsifies the amount, then we should all go to the naval base and hand over the stolen goods to the navy for disposal."
Jay's last two sentences were obviously meant to warn those who had bad intentions.
If the difference is not much, the captain will probably grit his teeth and make up for it in order to keep his job.
But if you go too far, you will have to pay the price of greed.
You know, if these "stolen goods" fell into the hands of the navy in the East China Sea, they would be lucky if they could keep one third of them.
Therefore, the real owners will definitely supervise each other.
"Okay, thank you, thank you! Thank you so much! I will definitely take care of this matter."
The captain knew this was his last chance.
So we just called all the sailors over to maintain order.
He was responsible for counting the 'stolen goods', while the first mate was responsible for counting the 'lost property' of the passengers. Only when the records on both sides matched, or were not much different, could the next step of returning the items be taken.
In addition, the captain specially had Jay and his friends upgraded to a deluxe room and refunded the full fare.
He said that as long as he was still the captain and ran this route, he would give Jay and his crew the ride for free forever.
This is the limit of what an ordinary person can do to express gratitude.
Jay didn't refuse the other party's kindness.
At the same time, he also completed today's "rewarding the good and punishing the evil".
Catching the thief Nami and punishing her is a way to punish evil.
Returning the stolen property to its original owner is a good deed.
Of course, he didn't think much of that stuff, and he had to find a place to exchange it for money, which was troublesome.
After trying these days, Jay also discovered a pattern.
That is to do good deeds, no matter how small, can trigger "doing good".
Including but not limited to helping an elderly lady cross the street, returning lost property, etc.
But there are certain requirements for punishing evil.
For example, if you encounter a murderer, it would not work if you just give him a few verbal lectures or slap him twice.
Punishing evil is to determine the severity of the punishment based on the extent of the evil the target has committed.
For example, if you catch a thief and give him some simple punishment, the job will most likely be done.
