Chapter 22

He pressed, asking:

"What did you say? Arlong Has Already died?"

"Not necessarily, but even if he isn't dead, he's on his last breaths. You can go see for yourself; Arlong Has Already thoughtfully prepared the best viewing spot for you!"

Saying this,

Li Xiao pointed to a wall on one side,

where there was a huge hole caused earlier when Arlong Has Already was blasted down by him twice!

As soon as Li Xiao finished speaking,

Nami suddenly jumped up and rushed to that hole,

looking down from above!

From this angle,

she immediately saw Arlong Has Already surrounded in the middle by a group of fish-men,

lying motionless on the ground at that moment, his life or death unknown!

Seeing this,

Nami collapsed onto the ground at once,

murmuring:

"The village... everyone... are free!"

Saying this, the tears she had just stopped flowing began to pour out again.

"Right, I must hurry and tell everyone this news!"

Nami wiped her tears,

stood up and ran toward the stairs,

taking three steps as two and rushing quickly down to the lower floor!

"Hey, you're not taking the Devil Fruit?"

However,

Nami showed no intention of paying him any attention,

and after going downstairs, she sprinted straight toward the direction of Cocoyasi Village!

Seeing this,

Li Xiao helplessly shook his head,

and could only pick up the Devil Fruit he had just put down, then followed her downstairs.

However, Li Xiao did not return to Cocoyasi Village,

although he had defeated Arlong Has Already and let the villagers of Cocoyasi Village regain their freedom,

fundamentally speaking,

the reason Li Xiao intervened,

was still due to his own purposes!

He did not consider himself some noble savior,

so there was no need to go accept the villagers' gratitude.

Moreover,

although Arlong Has Already had been dealt with by him for now,

the Arlong Pirates still needed to be handled properly!

Every single crew member is walking Belly; there's no reason to waste them!

After all,

cultivation has the System's help,

but eating still costs money!

With so much delicious food in the Pirate World,

Li Xiao naturally would not miss any of it!

Saving up more meal money now,

so as not to stare at an empty bowl and cry later!
