Remove Gmail Account from Mail without losing the Emails

I have a gmail email account that I want to remove from my iphone. I don't want to delete the actual gmail account from gmail because I use it on other devices. I just want to remove it from my iphone.


So I am assuming that going to Settings, Passwords & Accounts, the gmail account, and Delete Account will remove it. But will these emails still be available on my other devices? I don't want to lose the emails.

iPhone 6s, iOS 14

Deleting is Fine:

All will be fine. All it is doing is syncing it with your account. So, if deleted, then all would reside in gmail.com
