Account deletion trigger

Hi All, 
I am new to creating triggers and struggeling with this trigger, before deleting an account record to check TWO criterias, 
if the field : acc.ninja_store_id is not blank  -  ( string )
if the a checkbox field : (deleted__c) is UNchecked -( boleean )  

when I modify the trigger as below, it works only on the condition (deleted) but not on the string is blank
so, I want the rigger to prevent the deletion if one of the criterias is met! 

here is the trigger:

trigger test on account

(before delete){

    for(Account acc: Trigger.old){

        if(Acc.Account_Status__c!='Deleted' || Acc.Ninja_Store_Id__c != '' ){

            acc.AddError('To be able to delete this account in SF, It has to be deleted first in Ninja');

        }

    }

}

Hii System 
Try Below Trigger 
trigger test on account(before delete){
    for(Account acc: Trigger.old){
        if(Acc.deleted__c != true || Acc.Ninja_Store_Id__c != '' ){
            acc.AddError('not able to delete');
        }
    }
}
-------------OR-----------------
trigger test on account(before delete){ 
     for(Account acc: Trigger.old){ 
         if(Acc.deleted__c != true && Acc.Ninja_Store_Id__c != '' ){ 
             acc.AddError('not able to delete'); 
        }

Thanks all, the triggers above same as mine are preventing the account deletion even if account is not meeting the criteria, the trigger is preventing deletion no matter what are the records values! 
So in my testing, if the account ninja status is blank it is still preventing me from deletion. Same as if the deleted check is false.
