One Piece: The Half-Blood Ninja Who Hides on the Straw Hat Ship

Chapter 330 Shocked Hancock, so many?!

Chapter 330 Shocked Hancock, so many?!

Since his mother-in-law didn't intend to eat it, he didn't insist.

Afterwards, west Yan put away the Devil Fruits on the table, intending to have Hancock find a place to put them first.

"Put it in the treasure vault," Hancock said. "I have a special place for storing treasure."

Every time she returned from a campaign, she would put the looted treasures into that place.

Hearing Hancock's words, west Yan raised an eyebrow and said, "You have a treasure vault here too."

"Of course."

She was the emperor of this country, how could she not have a treasury?

"Then let's go," west Yan nodded.

"Alright, I'll personally take you there," Hancock said with a smile.

Then, Hancock stood up and pulled Xiyan toward the treasury inside the palace.

"Let's do it together," west Yan said. "I'll also take out the gifts I brought for you."

Upon hearing this, the others exchanged glances, and then followed west Yan and the other person away from there.

"I never expected an old woman like me to receive a gift," Gloria said with some emotion.

"How could I possibly forget you?" west Yan said with a smile.

The old man treated Hancock and the others like his own daughters, so he naturally couldn't neglect them.

Upon hearing this, Gloria laughed, and her gaze toward Xiyan became increasingly satisfied.

Soon, the group arrived at the treasure vault that Hancock had mentioned.

"this...

Looking around at the scene inside the treasure vault, west Yan was immediately rendered speechless.

Is Amazon Lily a bit too poor?

"What's wrong?"

Hancock, who was about to explain the situation to Xiyan, suddenly looked at him with a puzzled expression, wondering why he would make such a face.

"Is this your private treasure trove?"

"Um..." Hancock thought for a moment after hearing this, then nodded and said, "That's not wrong."

"What do you mean by 'it's not wrong to say that'?"

"Because I am the emperor of this island," Hancock explained. "As the emperor of Amazon Lily, I have absolute control over this country!"

"So it's not wrong to say that this is my private treasure trove."

After each expedition, they would distribute some of the looted goods and send the rest here.

And she has absolute control over these things!

"Don't worry, brother-in-law," Santasonia said, "there won't be any problems with the things being here."

"Without your elder sister's orders, no one is allowed to come here and take anything; doing so is a capital offense!"

After hearing Santasonia's words, west Yan nodded and said, "Then put it here."

He then handed the Devil Fruit to Santasonia, gesturing for her to find a suitable place to put it.

Santasonia nodded, picked up her things, and turned to walk away.

After watching the other person put the items into a large box, west Yan turned to Hancock and said, "Hancock."

"In~"

Hancock blinked her big eyes at Xiyan and asked, "What is it?"

"Isn't Amazon Lily a bit too poor?" Xi Yan looked at the contents of the treasure vault and said with a complicated expression, "This can't even compare to the treasure vault of a single Celestial Dragon."

This is a treasure trove for the nation!

Is this all the treasure a country has? Isn't that a bit too outrageous?

Hancock: !!!

Seeing west Yan's expression, Hancock was dumbfounded. Was she being disliked?

Thinking of this, Hancock immediately said anxiously, "I will try my best to go out and plunder, please don't despise me."

west Yan:

Is that what he meant?

Looking at Hancock's anxious face, west Yan said helplessly, "I'm not looking down on you, I'm just lamenting that you don't have much here."

Upon hearing this, Hancock breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you don't dislike it."

If she were really rejected, she wouldn't know what to do.

After glancing at Hancock's performance, Granny Zha shook her head helplessly, then turned to Xiyan and said, "Our Amazon Lily definitely can't compare to the Celestial Dragons, after all... we don't have anyone to hand over the Celestial Gold!"

The Celestial Dragons have to hand over Celestial Gold to them, so they have countless riches to use, but Amazon Lily doesn't have that kind of treatment!

Therefore, it is perfectly normal that they have far fewer items than the Celestial Dragons.

"That's true..."

"

west Yan stroked his chin and nodded, then said, "However... isn't Nine Serpent Island a closed-off country? Why haven't you saved any money?"

This has been going on for hundreds of years, and yet no money has been saved?

"It's true that the country is in a state of isolation, but that doesn't mean they don't spend money," Granny Za said. "When the Kuja Pirates go out, they also bring back some things from outside."

"And all of these things cost money!"

"Besides... even when our Kuja Pirates go out to plunder, we don't necessarily get a lot of money."

Most of the time, the pirates they encounter are poor, and even if they kill them all, they won't get much money. They can only earn a little more when they encounter merchant ships.

"I see," west Yan nodded.

In that case, it's quite reasonable that Amazon Lily didn't manage to accumulate much money.

Then, west Yan asked, "Is it possible that the emperor of Nine Serpent Island left with the treasure?"

"have."

Grandma nodded and said, "More than a hundred years ago, there were two emperors who did the same thing."

"After finding true love, they left with a portion of their treasure, which is one of the reasons why our treasury is so empty."

Hearing his mother-in-law's words, west Yan wore a complicated expression.

At that moment, he seemed to hear the shouts of some of the people of Amazon Lily.

"The emperor has run away with two people again!"

This tradition is really something...:

"Do you want treasure, Xiyan?" Hancock looked at Xiyan expectantly and said, "If you want it, you can have all the treasure in this house!"

For her, money wasn't important; west Yan was the most important thing!

Hearing Hancock's words, Grandma shook her head helplessly.

However, she didn't say anything, since the treasure vault belonged to Hancock, so Hancock could do whatever she wanted.

"No, I don't want the treasure here." west Yan shook his head and said, "I'm just wondering why you have so little here."

"Oh, I see..."

Hancock was a little disappointed upon hearing this; she had thought that Xiyan wanted her treasure.

"Alright, stop overthinking it." west Yan patted Hancock and said, "I'm not short of money."

This time, Hancock didn't say anything, but obediently nodded.

At this moment, Granny Za said, "I remember you said that you robbed the Celestial Dragons' treasure vault in Mary Geoise, right?"

"Yes, that's why I said I don't lack money."

"The portion of the treasure I entrusted to Xia Qi alone is worth 30 billion!"

The room fell silent instantly upon hearing this.

At this moment, everyone looked at west Yan with shocked eyes, their eyes practically bulging out.

"Three... three hundred billion?!" Grandma looked at Xi Yan in shock, exclaiming incredulously, "That much?!"

No wonder west Yan said before that their Nine Snake Island's treasure trove was too poor... Compared to him, it's not that poor at all!

That's 30 billion!

Could the contents of their Amazon Lily treasury be sold for tens of billions of Berries?

I'm afraid that won't work.

As a result, west Yan alone...: ...This is too terrifying!

"Are the Celestial Dragons really that rich?" Merry swallowed and said.

They had gone to so much trouble to get a few hundred million Berries from that bounty hunter's family, but west Yan got three hundred million in one go...

This is too exaggerated!

How much delicious food could you buy with that?

"The Celestial Dragons are much richer than you imagine," west Yan said.

The combined value of the treasures of the seven Celestial Dragons must be around 100 billion.

"Xiyan, you're really amazing!" Hancock said, her eyes sparkling.

To dare steal money from the Celestial Dragons' treasury...: ...Besides Xiyan, no one else would dare to do that!

"That's right, my brother-in-law is amazing!"

Santasonia and Marigold also showed expressions of admiration, their expressions somewhat excited.

Daring to rob the Celestial Dragons' treasure trove... No wonder he's their brother-in-law!

"Don't rush, this is just the beginning."

west Yan smiled and said, "Besides the part I gave to Sister Xia Qi, I also robbed quite a few things from the Celestial Dragons."

"besides?!"

Upon hearing west Yan's words, shock reappeared in the eyes of the group.

Is it really more than 30 billion?

Isn't this...a bit too much?!

"Of course," west Yan nodded and said, "I've robbed quite a few Celestial Dragons' treasure troves, how could I only have 30 billion?"

After saying that, west Yan took out a scroll from his ninja tool bag.

Then, he squatted down and took out some gold and silver jewelry and ornaments from the scroll, as well as the gifts he had bought for Hancock and the others in the Sabaody Archipelago.

"Bang!"

Hancock's eyes widened in surprise at the sudden appearance of this pile of things in front of her.

"This...so many?!" Hancock exclaimed in shock.

This is worth far more than what's in her treasure vault!

"Do you like it?" west Yan asked with a smile.

Hancock paused for a moment, then said, "Are these all for me?"

"Apart from the gifts for them, everything else is yours," west Yan nodded.

Hancock paused for a moment upon hearing this, then looked at Xiyan with teary eyes and said, "Xiyan...you're so good to me!"

Although she wasn't particularly interested in gold and jewelry, it didn't mean she couldn't see their value!

She knew all too well what it meant to be willing to give her treasures worth over 10 billion... or even tens of billions at once.

At this moment, Hancock once again felt the importance that West Flame placed on her.

"You're my wife, if I don't treat you well, who else should I treat well?" west Yan said with a smile.

In short, Hancock was deeply moved.

"You're really generous, kid," Grandma Zai remarked. "You gave away so much all at once."

With this money, Hancock wouldn't need to go out and plunder anymore.

Just then, Hancock said, "Xiyan, now that you've given me all this treasure, what are you going to do with it?"

"Yes, brother-in-law, what are you going to do?" Marigold also said.

To deal with the pursuit two years from now, my brother-in-law will need to spend money to buy a Devil Fruit.

I gave all of this to my older sister. Oh my god, where am I supposed to get any money left?

"Don't worry, I have plenty of money," west Yan said. "Besides these, I also have a lot of gold and Beli."

"Alright then," Hancock nodded, "I'll accept it."

"However... you can take these things with you whenever you need them."

As she spoke, Hancock pointed to the pile of treasure, then to the treasure that was already in the room, saying, "You can take those too."

In Hancock's view, what she had belonged to Xiyan was already hers, so she wouldn't feel bad about spending the money.

After all... all she cared about from beginning to end was west Yan!

"Don't worry, I won't hesitate to ask if you need anything," west Yan said with a smile.

Hancock is his wife, so if there's a real need, he won't stand on ceremony with her.

"That would be perfect."
