1512 year of the Yuan calendar.

the East China Sea.

Cocoa West Village, Glomé Islands.

The sun is shining, the sea breeze is gentle, and from time to time a few seagulls soar above the sky, and the village is filled with a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

A red hull, a sharp-billed shark bow, black sails hanging from the mast, and a red shark-patterned boat on it, slammed into the edge of the pier and docked.

“Pirates are coming!” Everyone hide…”< p idx="6"> “There are pirates docked, everyone run!”

“That is… Evil Dragon Pirates!?

Is it true that the Fishman Pirates split?”

On the loess road of the village, a young man ran quickly and shouted wildly, breaking the quiet and peaceful atmosphere of the village, causing the villagers to panic, and people hid in their homes, ready to collect their money and leave.

“scared hahaha!”

With a burst of wild laughter, a serrated shark man wearing a black hood and purple skin walked into the village with a group of fishmen.

“Hello!

Useless humans, from this moment on, this village….

No! It’s this island that’s at my disposal from now on! The evil dragon opened his hands and laughed maniacally.

“Listen to me, you will pay for your own lives from me on this memorable day!”

100,000 Baileys for adults, 50,000 Baileys for children… The guy who can’t pay will give me death!

Moreover, every month from now on, you need to pay so much money, otherwise you still have to die… Do you understand? After

saying the evil dragon waved his hand, and let the twenty younger brothers behind him begin to collect protection fees from each family one after another.

Due to the menacing of the evil dragon pirate group, the villagers can only choose to swallow their anger and honestly pay the matter, they are ready to find another opportunity in the future to report this matter to the navy….

After a while, with the cooperation of the villagers, the fish people of the Evil Dragon Pirate Group quickly collected a sack of money.

“Hey! Xiaoba, how much money did you receive? ”

the evil dragon turned to look at the side, an octopus fish man with eight hands.

< p idx="23"> “almost 25 million Baileys…” octopus Xiaoba first responded, and then he looked into the distance with a slight surprise, and shouted:

Huh!?

there should still be people living there! ”

“Okay, then let’s go over there and see…”

> Hearing this, the evil dragon turned his head and glanced, only then stood up, led twenty younger brothers, and walked towards the orange orchard on the edge of the village.

“Over there is Belmel’s home…?”

“With their family’s financial conditions, they don’t know if they can pay the protection fee.”

” should be fine, right?

Their family now seems to have people coming to order oranges every year…”

> the villagers were a little uneasy, so they could only carefully follow behind the Evil Dragon Pirates and others.

…………

in a wooden house in an orange grove on the edge of the village.

Belmer stood in front of the gas stove in the open kitchen, humming a ditty while frying the steak in a pan.

“Wow! It’s so fragrant! It’s worthy of high-grade beef…

” Nami walked over to Bermel and she whispered.

“yes! This time I’m bleeding profusely, and it’s all because you keep saying that you want to taste high-grade beef…” said Bermel softly.

Nami pouted and coquettishly said:

what does it matter!” Just taste it once….

says we’ve never eaten before. ”

“Bermel, I have already packed all the oranges I picked this morning…”

“44”> Noki pushed open the door and walked in.

“Hmm! Go wash your hands and get ready to eat.

Then take a good nap, we will continue picking oranges in the afternoon, and strive to finish picking them early…”

“47”> Bermel looked at Nami and Nokiko with dirty hands and cheeks because of picking oranges, and she couldn’t help but smile and instruct.

Two years ago, due to the sudden appearance of Sephiroth, he would buy oranges in the Bermel orange orchard every year, which improved the family’s standard of living.

the family went from struggling with food and clothing to being able to maintain normal food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

Now, Bermel occasionally fulfills the wayward little requests of his two daughters, buying new clothes, books, or good ingredients to add to the meal.

hearing this, Nami and Nokigao, the two smiled and nodded, obediently walked to the edge of the sink, washed their hands, and sat at the dining table waiting for the meal.

knock knock!

there was a sudden knock outside the house, and Nami, who was sitting in a chair, quickly ran to the door and opened the door.

“Are you…?”

After seeing a group of fishmen with unkind eyebrows standing outside the doorway, Nami suddenly took two steps back in fright.

Seeing this scene, Belmel, who was cooking in the kitchen, her face instantly sank after seeing the person coming.

Bermel quickly rushed out of the kitchen, blocking the two girls behind.

“Excuse me, the evil dragon pirate group on the Great Passage, why did they come to our Kokoa West village for thousands of miles…?”

“scared hahaha!”

of course to rule here!

100,000 Baileys for adults, 50,000 Baileys for children, if your family of three wants to survive, you must hand over 200,000 Baileys!

from today, every month in the future you need to hand over so much, less than a hundred li will not do….

Now, if you want to survive, hurry up and hand over the money! ”

“I see!” Please wait…”< p idx="65"> Hearing this, Bermel’s heart suddenly felt a little angry, but because of the presence of two daughters, for the sake of their safety, she did not choose to resist, but took her two daughters, turned around and walked to the cabinet where she put the money, and began to take the money out.

Since Sephiroth would buy oranges from her for the past two years, her oranges had a stable sales channel, so the family’s life was much better, and 200,000 Baileys, all her savings combined, should barely be able to make up.

“seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, nineteen thousand Baileys…”

“68”> Bermel rummaged in the drawer for a while, but she finally found 192,000 Baileys, eight thousand Baileys short of what the dragon requested.

“Scared hahaha!

you have already counted it twice, it seems that the money is not enough, right?

in that case, I will give you a proposal, which one do you want to keep among these two imps? ”

the one you don’t want, how about I help you kill her?” The evil dragon said in a tone full of ridicule.

As soon as these words came out, Nami and Nokiko suddenly trembled with fright, and Bermel directly glared at the evil dragon…
