One Piece: Starting with Coercion and Enticement of Nami

"Those who can beat me, I naturally won't bother to talk about, because they'll resort to violence; those who can't beat me, I'll just treat them like dogs barking."

Thoth smiled faintly and retorted.

Wisps of white smoke rose around him, indicating that the user was somewhat out of control.

Just then, hurried footsteps approached, and Jaylen, covered in sweat, came running over. When he saw the group chatting and drinking, his eyes widened in surprise, but he quickly spoke up:

“Mr. Toth, I have contacted my superiors.”

As he spoke, he handed the connected phone to Karina, who had reached out her hand.

Karina blinked, handed the telephone receiver to Tot, and sat on the bar, glancing at Jaylen.

It can be considered surveillance.

At the same time, a calm voice came from the telephone bug:

"Is it you? That brat from the East China Sea who's been hiding for so long, the weapon Tote?"

Thoth chuckled lightly: "Du. Feld?"

"I'm not the president, I'm the head of the intelligence department at Field Corporation headquarters. You can call me Mr. J."

"Mr. J?"

Thoth chuckled: "You think I'm being presumptuous? You want my life? You still have the nerve to act tough in front of me?"

Are you an idiot? Or is your brain caked with shit? You're not qualified to call Dufeld over to talk to me.

Simple, foul breath, the ultimate enjoyment.

"You..." A voice filled with rage...

Kacha!

The telephone bug abruptly ended the call.

Thoth was too lazy to say more; he couldn't possibly give a kind look to this kind of brain-dead idiot who thought he was superior just because he came from a great sea route.

Moreover, despite his intimidating title of "Duke of the Underworld," Dufeld is nothing more than a stinking rat in the shadows.

His own strength was nothing more than that of a weakling. I remember he was instantly killed by Stussy, the Queen of Pleasure Street and a World Government agent, with a single flying gun shot.

Moreover, as his strength continues to grow, Tote's confidence naturally increases as well.

The problem is simply that not enough people have been killed, and these underground rats have never dared to provoke anything like the Four Emperors or the World Government.

As the phone call ended, Jaylen, the bar manager, was covered in cold sweat; his boss had been thoroughly humiliated.

And he contacted them himself.

Will I lose my life?

He couldn't help but look at Thoth, who then looked up at him with indifferent eyes.

Buzzing...

Buzzing sounds...

The phone rang suddenly, and the call became increasingly urgent. Thoth sneered, picked up the receiver, and immediately a cold voice came from the other end:

"I must say, you..."

"Idiot!" Katcha!

Thoth ended the call again, while across the telephone, Mr. J, in the underground intelligence room of Coin Island in the New World, looked on with a sinister gaze.

He gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath:

"Damn East China Sea scum, how dare you talk to me like that?"

He took a deep breath, then dialed another number, and soon his boss, Du Felder, answered:

"J! Is something wrong?"

"Boss, that brat from the East China Sea named Weapon Tot has appeared, but his strength is quite formidable now. The assassins from Paradise in the past couldn't take him down."

Moreover, he discovered our base in Lawrence Erenburg.

He showed us absolutely no respect, and even had the audacity to specifically ask for you.

On the other end, Dufeld's face darkened, and a deep chill filled his eyes:

"It seems he's no ordinary person, so ordinary assassins won't be able to deal with him."

It seems I need to find a powerful and capable person to deal with him.

You don't need to follow up on this matter, but go and increase the black market bounty to 500 million Berries.

"Yes, boss."

Dufeld ended the phone call, lit an expensive cigar, exhaled smoke, and his fierce gaze turned thoughtful:

"By the way, I remember that guy's men have been doing business at the amusement park recently."

And that guy's subordinates are quite well-known in the New World.

I can go to him.

Immediately, the phone whizzed out, and it took two minutes for the other end to answer.

"Fizz! Fizz! Fizz! My good friend, is there a big business opportunity coming my way?"

His voice, imbued with authority yet tinged with a cynical cunning, rang out.

"Joker! I heard there's a mission in the first half of your Paradise? My men were killed in the East China Sea by a brat named Weapon Tot."

"Fufufufu! You mean you want me to send someone to kill him for you?"

“I’ll put a 500 million Berry bounty on the black market for him, and I’ll give you another 500 million after it’s done.”

“Not enough! I want your high-quality rutile mine production line on the Das Bartholin Islands.”

"You're asking for trouble. This is a high-precision scientific research material."

Dufeld's tone was angry.

Doflamingo sneered:

"How could a kid who can get you to offer such a high reward be simple?"

"Don't I want to take any risks?"

After a long pause, Dufeld finally nodded in agreement. "Okay. Deal."

He was helpless; this black market bounty had already caused quite a stir.

He needs to resolve this problem as soon as possible, otherwise his reputation and credibility will suffer significant consequences.

As one of the six permanent emperors in the underground dark world, he cannot always rest easy.

There are plenty of hyenas in the underworld eyeing his location.

Especially those guys who are on par with him, including that bastard Joker.

Thoth drank his wine and chatted with them, and the telephone bug didn't ring again.

A moment later, a loud groan rang out. Thoth raised an eyebrow, looked over, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Young people are so healthy, they fall asleep without saying a word! Are you awake, Bages?"

So what's your answer?

107. Poor Bages!

“Weapon... Thoth.”

Barjas sat up from the ground, clutching his face with one hand, feeling his swollen, pig-like appearance, and slowly stood up:

"You're very strong; you defeated me head-on. Joining you isn't out of the question."

Thoth looked at him calmly. Barjas looked into Thoth's eyes, walked straight over, stood in front of Thoth, and then looked at Van Auger: "You've joined the party?"

Van Oka calmly nodded: "My fate is sealed, and Thoth will be the object of my future loyalty."

Bages, acknowledging Toth as your boss isn't an insult to you; rather, it's an honor for you to be above your station.

"You don't even know what domineering aura is; on this sea, you're nothing but a nobody. Since Thoth is willing to give you a chance, you should be truly grateful!"

Toth was surprised by Van Auger's maturity. Barjas's eye twitched violently, then he looked at Toth, his gaze becoming serious:

"I agree to be your underling."

However, if one day in the future I surpass you, then I will become the captain.

Thoth smiled. Capable people are always so unruly, but he did have some experience in taming wild horses, so he nodded and said:

"You're only an apprentice on my ship for now. Once you can defeat or fight to a draw with anyone on board, I'll make you a full-fledged member."

Bages' eye twitched, and a look of surprise welled up in his eyes. Even though it was their first meeting, he could tell that Weapon Tot was not the kind of person who made boastful claims.

In other words, he turned to look at Karina and Tashigi beside him, his eye twitching as he said:

"Are you saying that I can't even beat these two women?"

Tashigi froze on the spot, about to retort...

Karina blinked, placed a blank card on Toth's shoulder, and looked at Bages with a strange expression:

"I'm special on this ship; my strength fluctuates greatly. Are you sure you want to challenge me?"

Barjas's eyes clearly showed disbelief. Karina lowered her gaze to Thoth and smiled faintly, "My dear, I want to enter my strongest form. Please allow me."

Thoth nodded, and in an instant, his figure disappeared in the white light of the card, followed by a dazzling white light emanating from Karina's body.

In the blink of an eye,

An incomparably tall and stunning figure appeared.

Karina controlled her body, her one dark blue and one azure eyes coldly watching him. In the blink of an eye, she clenched her right fist and pulled it back, unleashing a piercing, ear-piercing arc of dark, ferocious electricity.

In an instant, as Bages glared angrily, he threw a punch.

The atmosphere suddenly converged and collapsed, and a terrifying, pitch-black, domineering fist imprint, carrying a terrifying force, struck his chest in an instant.

With a cracking sound, several of Bajes's sternums broke, and he flew backward in a blur.

However, at that moment, Karina watched as Bages flew backward. A card shot out like lightning and embedded itself deeply in his chest. In a flash of white light, his figure disappeared, but the card flew back into the air.

Karina reached out and caught the card that had absorbed Burgess. Looking at his vacant expression within the card, she felt a pang of sadness.

"I've already said that my strength fluctuates greatly. If I learn from this, I'll challenge others in the future."

Smoker jumped up, staring at Karina in disbelief. How could her domineering aura be so powerful?

At that moment, Thoth quietly took control of his body, the cards disintegrated into points of light, and the figure of Bages appeared.

Thoth looked at him, who, despite his severe injuries and disbelief in his eyes, still stood tall, and chuckled softly:

"Don't resist, I'll treat you!"

At that moment, dense wood spirit roots burst forth, instantly piercing into the unconscious people lying on the ground in the bar. Their life essence was extracted and devoured, and their bodies visibly became withered and decayed.

Then, Thoth reached out and placed his hand on his chest. Hardened wood fibers, as hard as steel wire, pierced through his chest and seeped into his body, connecting the broken sternum.

The stolen life essence surged into his body and further enhanced his body's self-healing ability by interfering with his life meridians and stimulating his life potential.

After a dozen or so breaths, Thoth withdrew his hand.

He watched as the wound on his chest, in which the card had been embedded, was stitched up and healed.

A strange glint appeared in Bages' eyes. "You're a doctor? And you have the ability to heal quickly."

As he spoke, he glanced at the retracted roots and the withered bodies, Bages' eyes trembled slightly, and he looked away.

On one hand, he was shocked by the strange abilities of the person in front of him, and on the other hand, he couldn't help but feel gratified. He had been beaten up twice, and those guys deserved to suffer too.

If I got soaked in the downpour, there's no reason why those bastards in my group should just have simply passed out.

He, Bages, was no morally upright man; he looked at Thoth with intense gaze:

"Captain Toth! I, Bages, am completely convinced of your authority. From now on, I will do whatever you ask me to do."

Although I am a rough man, now that I have acknowledged you, I can entrust my life to you.

At this moment, looking at his emaciated colleagues on the ground, a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth:
