Liar, you clearly had a suspicious look just now?
Usopp and Luffy stood on the side, waving their hands.
"Yo-shi, I remember I still have a lot of other things saved up, let's see how much money they can get!!"
Nami excitedly went to check her accumulated items.
Luffy and Usopp both found it very interesting and were rummaging through their own belongings, seeing if they could find some inconspicuous but valuable items.
Guessing the value and competing to see whose items were better was a good game.
Even Sanji joined in with interest, and Zoro, who couldn't move, asked his two subordinates to help him get his items.
His two swords were broken after fighting Mihawk, and he urgently needed some money to buy new ones.
Soon, everyone took out all sorts of strange items and threw them into the pawn machine.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~
A series of small lights flashed, and stacks of banknotes were dispensed from inside.
"You're kidding me!!"
Nami was saying this for the second time now.
Before, she was shocked by the large amount of money dispensed, but this time, it was by the small amount.
"I put in so many things, and only this much money came out?!!"
Nami waved the less than one million Berries in her hand with a frantic expression.
"Those were all valuable-looking trinkets I collected along the way!!"
"Hahaha, don't be discouraged, Nami, maybe next time you'll collect something incredibly valuable?"
Luffy, holding a stack of banknotes, was grinning from ear to ear.
"Shut up!!"
It would have been better if Luffy hadn't spoken; when he did, Nami became even more distraught.
Their idiotic captain had caught a seashell while playing on the ocean earlier.
Who would have thought that inside the seashell was a good quality pearl, which was directly pawned for almost three million Berries!!
Where's the justice in that? His luck was simply too good!!!
However, luckily, Usopp and Zoro didn't have many valuable items either, and their combined total was less than hers, which gave her a little comfort.
At this moment, Nami also decided that if they ever encountered other Pirate Crews or enemies in the future, she would absolutely not miss any item that looked valuable!!
Anything that wasn't common and could be thrown into the machine, she would bring it all back!!
At this moment, she secretly swore, completely forgetting her original intentions and goals when she first joined the crew.
But before she could finish her oath, she remembered something and then looked at Luffy, who was foolishly happy with his money.
More precisely, she looked at the straw hat on Luffy's head.
"Hey, Captain~"
Nami immediately changed to a gentle tone; she was exceptionally amiable.
"How about we throw the straw hat on your head into the pawn machine and see? I heard this straw hat has a lot of stories; maybe it's an antique."
"No!!"
Who knew that Nami had barely started before Luffy immediately refused.
"This is the most important straw hat Shanks gave me; I won't do anything with it!!"
"A gift from a powerful person?"
Nami's eyes immediately sparkled, "If that's the case, this straw hat must also have immense value!!"
"Try it, Luffy!!"
Nami immediately launched her attack: "Don't you want to know what value the straw hat your benefactor gave you truly holds?!"
"No!"
"Oh, don't be so stubborn. We're just looking, not actually pawning it. After we see how much it's worth, we can just redeem it, right?!"
"No way!"
To Nami's surprise, Luffy was extremely firm about his straw hat.
No matter how much she pleaded, practically talking herself hoarse, Luffy remained resolute.
This made Nami especially disheartened, and she went to sulk in a corner.
Link watched the entire scene unfold.
To be honest, he was also quite curious about the value of this straw hat, which Roger passed to Shanks, and Shanks then passed to Luffy, and which might even be related to the giant straw hat in the "Flower Room" of Mary Geoise.
But Luffy's firm stance made him drop the idea of pawning the straw hat.
In the end, this grand pawning event concluded with Link throwing in the numerous treasures he had collected and exchanging them for a large sum of berries.
Alvida's treasures, Buggy's treasures, the Kuro Neko Pirates' treasures, plus Zeff's gifts~
The total amount from the pawning came to 30 million berries!
Hmm, enough to buy a Luffy from his first bounty poster.
In terms of wealth alone, their straw hat Pirate Crew had become the top Pirate Crew in the entire East Blue!
Seeing such a large sum of money come in, everyone's hearts swelled with excitement.
They couldn't help but feel that a wonderful tomorrow and future awaited them.
Having money and not having money, the confidence is just different!
"Alright everyone, we've found a cook, and with a new companion joining us, what should we do next?"
Link, who had taken control of Luffy's 3 million berries and firmly held the financial power, sought his companions' opinions.
