Pirate: Nami! Give me back my Berry!

The huge waves slowly receded.

Ling Yan had now transformed into a human-beast, flapping his wings and hovering in mid-air, but he looked at the giant pink dragon with a somewhat resentful look in his eyes.

Kuina didn't expect that just a breath of dragon could make such a loud noise.

No wonder everyone wants the mythical beast species!

She looked at Ling Yan with extremely happy eyes. After all, Ling Yan had been teaching her ever since she followed him out.

Now he has even planned to obtain such a powerful devil fruit.

She was really grateful to Ling Yan in her heart.

"Hey!"

"Kuina, it's almost time. We should go back." Seeing that Kuina was distracted, he interrupted her directly.

"what?"

"Oh, I understand..." Kuina came back to her senses and turned into a human-beast form. Wrapped in a cloud of flames, she slowly landed back on the deserted island.

Ling Yan looked at Kuina's flame cloud with some envy and said, "It's really convenient. It's worthy of being the Azure Dragon Fruit. I can have the flame cloud without awakening. I just don't know if the artificial fruit can be awakened. I have to ask Vegapunk when I get a chance."

As he said this, he also returned to the ground.

Ling Yan walked up to the live-broadcasting Den Den Mushi, picked it up, and found that it was already dying: "You're awesome! Such a huge wave didn't wash you away."

"It's still here..." Kuina said in shock as she walked over.

"If it gets washed away, you will have to pay the compensation to Nami. I don't want my pocket money to be deducted again." Ling Yan rolled his eyes at Kuina.

Although Nami asked him to bring it out, if it is lost, Nami will definitely make him pay for it given her personality!

By then, my pocket money will be reduced again...

"Humph!"

"I haven't said anything to you yet, for letting you broadcast live without my consent!" Kuina snorted coldly.

"Hey hey hey~~~"

"Well, it's time for us to go back. They are probably waiting for us. By the way, you don't need me to take you back, right?" Ling Yan said somewhat embarrassedly.

He had forgotten this had happened.

"Why not? Do you want to let others know that I have become a person with special abilities?" Kuina glanced at Ling Yan.

Of course she loves free tools.

Moreover, the fact that she has become a person with special abilities cannot be exposed now, which will not be good for their dream investigation team.

Ling Yan thought about it and felt that it was right.

"That's right~~~" He put away the Den Den Mushi, then picked up Kuina by the waist and flew towards the Sabaody Archipelago.

~~~~~~

Return to the villa.

The people waiting here were overjoyed. After Kuina ate the mythical beast fruit, her strength immediately became terrifyingly strong!

"It's really amazing!"

"Kuina, I feel that your strength has improved a lot now!" Nojigo still felt a little dazed.

Kuina looked down at her hands, clenched her fists and said, "I now feel that in addition to the power of the devil fruit, my own physical strength has also been strengthened to a certain extent!"

"That's for sure. After all, what you ate was an animal-type mythical beast worth at least 30 billion berries!" Nami said seriously.

"Damn it!" Kuina looked at Nami angrily.

"Kuina, I want to ask you a question. Why do you feel that the devil fruit tastes so good when you eat it?" Dessa looked at Kuina and asked curiously.

"Um~~~"

"When I ate it, I just felt that the taste was very bland. Maybe it was because I ate an artificial devil fruit, and it didn't have the taste you described?" Kuina was stunned for a moment, then thought for a while and said.

"Ah~~~"

"It's so unfair! It tasted so bad when I ate it first. If Nami hadn't told me to finish it all, I would have vomited after taking just one bite..." Dessa fell directly on the sofa, still feeling scared when she thought of the taste of the devil fruit.

Nami and Nojiko covered their mouths and laughed when they saw this.

~~~~~~

noon the next day.

A phone call disturbed Ling Yan who was lying by the swimming pool bored.

He was the only one in the villa today, as everyone else went out for a stroll. Hogg still needed to learn the coating technology, while the women were shopping tirelessly.

"Moses~~Moses~~~" Ling Yan reached out and took the Den Den Mushi to answer the call.

"Boy Ling Yan, I'm Warring States!" Warring States' majestic voice came from the Den Den Mushi.

"Yo~~~"

"Old man Zhan Guo, why did you think of contacting me? Are you going to treat me to some senbei?" Ling Yan teased weakly.

"Colonel Ling Yan, please be serious, otherwise I will freeze your promotion!" Hearing Ling Yan's tone, Zhan Guo was very angry.

"I just remembered. Speaking of this, old man Zhan Guo, I haven't received my recent salary. You don't want to get it for free, do you?" Ling Yan sat up suddenly, his eyes lighting up as if he had thought of something.

"How dare you ask me for salary? Wherever you go, you either live in a mansion or a luxury hotel?" Zhan Guo felt that the little guys nowadays were so shameless!

Even though he is so rich, he still asks for salary!

"I'm telling you, old man Zhan Guo, don't try to default on my salary, otherwise I will spread the word that the navy is withholding wages!" Ling Yan said angrily.

Now his Pele has been confiscated by Nami, and he is worried about having no source of income.

If Sengoku hadn't reminded him, he would have forgotten that he could also receive salary from the navy. Oh, and from the World Government as well!

"You want a salary, right? Then come to the Navy Headquarters, and I will pay you every penny!"

"By the way, because of your meritorious service, the Navy Headquarters has promoted you to major general. Major General Ling Yan, work hard and keep going, and shine for justice in the Navy. That's it!"

"Click~~~"

By the swimming pool, Ling Yan looked at the hung-up Den Den Mushi with a look of disbelief on his face.

This shameless Sengoku actually dared to withhold his salary and even told him to go to the Naval Headquarters to collect it. It was obvious to me that this was a lie!

He thought of Kizaru. Could it be that this guy was often owed wages?

"You're not going to pay me, right, old man Zhan Guo? I'll definitely give you a big reward in the future!" Ling Yan said gritting his teeth.

"Squeak~~"

A space door opened and Nami walked out.

Ling Yan was lying on the recliner, thinking about the fact that he was owed wages, and he didn't notice it for a while.

"what?"

"Ling Yan, what's wrong with you?" Nami saw Ling Yan's ferocious look and felt that his teeth were about to break.

"Nami, let me tell you, this shameless old man Zhan Guo actually owes me my salary. Don't you think he is too stingy?" Ling Yan turned around and said to her as soon as he heard Nami's voice.

"what!!!"

"This damn old man actually owes me Bailey and Den Den Mushi. Give me this!" When Nami heard that Zhan Guo owed Ling Yan's salary, she was so angry. You know, Ling Yan is his now, so his Bailey is also his!

Ling Yan saw Nami’s angry look and handed the Den Den Mushi to her with trembling hands.

Then she immediately called Zhan Guo and started cursing him without any hesitation. It was not until three minutes later that Nami hung up the phone with a happy face.

Nami returned the Den Den Mushi to Ling Yan and said with a smile: "Ling Yan, my Bailey is coming back, hehe~~~"

Ling Yan: What does Zhan Guo mean by this?

Nami: I'm rich~~~
