"You were the one who fired that big bomb?"

Nami thought of the big bomb that had torn the small boat to pieces.

"good."

The man spoke very honestly.

"If you risk your life, I will regret it."

"Of course you'll be angry with me, but a small boat like this, sailing on the sea, is just a kind of drifting."

"you're right."

"Alright, you should thank me. No matter what happens, I can help you. For example, I prepared a comfortable bed for you when I helped you change your clothes."

After he finished speaking, his entire face contorted.

Nami punched him in the face. With a thud, the man fell backward.

"You saw I wasn't wearing any clothes?!"

Nami's gaze was icy.

"She's a real beauty."

The man seemed to feel no pain at all, and straightened his chest.

"Oh, looks like you're hard to beat up."

Nami exclaimed in admiration. That punch, whether it landed on his face or not, would have knocked him unconscious. Even if he was still faking it, it was clear he was a genuinely strong man, and not just a boast. Nami also realized that although the man before her looked like a wealthy country boy, his true nature was quite different. His eyes gleamed with a shark-like coldness and cruelty; he was definitely not a fat man.

....... 0 .......

(It seems they're all on our side.)

In other words, he was a rogue who made a living by sailing.

"I'm sorry, a maid dressed you."

the man said.

"Oh, like this."

However, Nami's eyes still held a hint of confusion.

“I am Gangzak, and I am the master of this sea.”

González walked to the window and lifted the curtain.

The blinding light instantly illuminated the entire room.

The sea is visible from the window. The azure ocean stretches out from the horizon. An island surrounded by dense forest comes into view; it's not very large, stretching for several kilometers, and a port town can be seen along the coast. Nami seems to be located on a mountaintop on this island.

Chapter 316: Tired of admiring the ocean!

"Ah!" Luffy exclaimed in surprise.

Nami saw a flag waving in the wind.

This is a pirate flag.

It was a huge skeleton and a crab symbol.

"This island and the surrounding seas belong to me."

"Gonzak, that's Gonzak, the guy who's called 'Gonzak'."

Nami asked thoughtfully.

"So you know me."

"I saw your name on the bounty list before. Weren't you wanted by the authorities?"

"This is too much!"

González grinned, revealing the same smile as in the portrait, and then took out a document, number 707, from his pocket.

"1000 Berries."

Nami wrote the money down on a piece of paper. It was a bounty from the sea.

"Isn't this cheap? One million Berries, what's my life worth?"

It might not even be as good as the beautiful diamond ring on your hand.

"Yes."

González raised his right index finger, on which was set a huge pink diamond ring, and he stuck out his long tongue and gently sucked.

Nami's face darkened. The diamond had lost its luster due to its filth, and the mere thought of it probably made her feel nauseous.

"Let me show you around. Here, please."

González led Nimi toward the door.

Nami followed behind, saying nothing. She decided to catch up with González first, to get to know him better.

If you want him to gain an advantage, you have to start from here.

Beneath Nami's innocent appearance, she was making her own plans.

González and Nami came out of the room and walked down the corridor.

As Nano continued onward, she found it hard to believe, perhaps because of the house's layout. The previous rooms were the same; while luxuriously furnished, they were very uncomfortable. The corridor, in particular, was utterly cramped. The towering González could easily block it entirely with a stretched-out arm.

González and Nami climbed a steeper set of stairs.

"It's a bit narrow at the front, please forgive me."

González replied politely. Sure enough, just as he said, the atmosphere changed instantly. The decor here was completely different from the rooms upstairs. The passageway narrowed, allowing only one adult to pass at a time. Everything was wooden, and there wasn't a ray of light. Because there weren't enough windows, they had to be kept open even in broad daylight.

Is that a very pleasant smell?

Nami smelled a woody scent. There was also a faint smell of paint and a burnt smell in the air. It was the same smell as in the weapon-forging room.

"Hello." A voice came from the other end of the phone.

Nami told González.

"What is it?" Luffy asked.

"This building looks a bit strange."

"Interior renovations are underway."

When asked by Nami, González gave his answer.

"new?"

"Yes, it's under construction."

"Gonzak muttered to himself, then went inside. Nami was annoyed by the vague answer, but she followed Gonzak without saying a word."

He continued down, passing through an area that resembled a warehouse, and kept going forward until he came outside.

Nami walked past González, glancing around.

Whoosh whoosh!

A white wave crashed against the shore.

It was a long, narrow harbor, completely opposite to the pier he looked out of his room. The shore was lined with "ko"-shaped rocks, while the other side stretched out to a vast ocean.

Is it here?

Nami, with her hand on her lower abdomen, said with some confusion...

"No way?"

"You mean well, but I'm already tired of admiring the ocean."

"Heh. How long have you been adrift at sea?"

"Isn't it a bit impolite of you to say that?"

"I'm sorry, but the place I want you to go is not the ocean."

"what happened?"

González sounded the horn.

It was buzzing.

Not long after, as if in response to his roar, a black figure rapidly expanded in the seawater.

Whoosh!

Then, a huge stream of water gushed out from his body.

"What?"

Nami stumbled backward.
