One Piece: Starting with Coercion and Enticement of Nami

"These bastards all have their eyes on your head. Why don't we just kill them?"

Thoth glanced at him, his body radiating white light as he separated from Karina's body.

"No need. Their life force has already been absorbed and consumed by your body. Even if they continue to live, they will be basically useless!"

And they won't live for more than a few days.

The wood spirits of Thoth can possess potent venom.

Seeing this, Burgess nodded, then looked at Smoker and Tashigi with a hint of curiosity in his eyes:

"Are you guys strong too? Are you official crew members? Shall we have a fight?"

Smoker's face darkened. "I'm not with you. Neither is Tashigi. We're the Navy."

Bages raised an eyebrow, looked at Thoth and grinned: "I knew it, I didn't sense anything special about you guys either."

So they weren't one of our own people after all.

No wonder!

Thoth's gaze was subtle; this guy's tongue was surprisingly sharp.

Smoker's eyes twitched, smoke rose from his body, and he floated up. His gaze turned hostile.

"You want a beating?"

Bages raised an eyebrow. "A power user? Smoke manipulation? You're a Logia-type?"

Curiosity flickered in his eyes, and he said bluntly, "You seem to have some skills. Being in the navy is so boring. Why don't you quit and come to our ship? I believe Boss Tote will take you on."

Although he was a big, burly man, he was not stupid. The fact that he was able to come into the bar with Toth must mean that they had some connection.

If I could recruit him, I would have made a significant contribution to Boss Tote.

Logia-type Devil Fruit users are, after all, not some useless roadside vendor.

Smoker's eyes flashed with anger, but he ultimately held back. He looked at Thoth with displeasure and said:

"You should manage your own people."

Thoth chuckled lightly: "His mouth is his own, and he has the freedom to speak. But you're not one of my people, so why should I listen to you?"

However, at this moment, Thoth inquired:

"Things here are considered settled, so what about you? Aren't you going back?"

Smoker: "......"

He hadn't expected Thoth to be so strong; those troublesome guys here were taken care of so easily by him.

He looked at Thoth, his gaze turning serious: "And you? What are you going to do next? You're not going to become Hai Mou Sang Jun..."

Barjas and Van Okaas raised their eyebrows slightly, looking at each other with feigned surprise.

Noticing their gazes, Thoth chuckled softly. "Is this a warning from a naval captain? Or advice from my friend Smoker?"

Smoker couldn't help but roll his eyes, and said in a cold voice:

Are we friends?

"It depends on you, after all, I don't dislike you."

Thoth laughed heartily, and Smoker's lips curled into a slight smile. "I don't want you to become a sea monster; it's too dangerous!"

Thoth laughed and said, "My identity is not important. I am just me, and even if I became a sea monster, those ordinary civilians wouldn't be interested."

Is this a guarantee?

She couldn't help but take a deep look at him.

He did not deny that he would work as a seabird mantle in the future.

Tch! You damn bastard.

"Then remember this: as long as you commit any crime, I will come and arrest you."

Smoker said unhappily, and Thoth chuckled: "Then you'll have to leave Loguetown first!"

After all, if I were on the Grand Line, you wouldn't be able to catch me.

Moreover, your strength is average, and you can't beat me. Or perhaps you're just making excuses to leave the Navy.

After all, even if I capture you, I won't kill you, and then you'll have an excuse to become one of my people?

"You're talking nonsense!" Smoker blushed with anger. "Who would want to be your person?"

"Me! Me! Me! I'm willing!"

Karina raised her hand with a grin, and then Barjas grinned:

"And I am too!"

"Yes, me too."

Van Augur chuckled softly.

At this moment, Thoth looked at Tashigi, a slight smile playing on his lips: "And you, Tashigi? Want to come aboard my ship?"

I can instruct you in swordsmanship!

Tashigi was taken aback, then looked at Smoker with a hint of panic. Smoker's face instantly darkened: "Let's go!"

With that, he left, looking quite annoyed.

Tashigi gave an awkward smile, glared at Thoth, and then quickly chased after him.

Karina blinked, watching their departing figures. "Getting them onto our ship won't be easy!"

Thoth smiled, then turned to look at Jaylen, the bar manager, his gaze becoming calm.

The latter's heart skipped a beat. Toth's lips curled into a slight smile as he pointed to the telephone on the table. "Call that shitty Mr. J and then hurl all your insults at him."

Jaylen's face turned pale instantly. Van Auger sneered, "Thoth said he'd spare your life. I never said that."

Bages clenched his fist, making a crisp cracking sound, and looked at him with a cold laugh: "Weren't you very arrogant before? A million dollars for every piece of information about Boss Toth? Hurry up and stop dawdling."

Jaylen dialed the number with a bitter expression. He didn't want to die, nor did he want to become a dried-up corpse. As the latter answered the phone, he took a deep breath and began a barrage of sharp insults.

Soon, the person on the other end of the phone snapped out of their daze and started hurling insults at each other.

And Jaylen didn't even know when Thoth and the other three left the bar!

……

On the street outside the bar.

Thoth asked, "Barjas, did you sail here from the Grand Line on your own?"

Bajas shook his head: "I came into the East China Sea on a ship from Vodka Island, which is closest to Upside Down."

"By the way, boss, you might not know this, but Vodka Island is the second of the seven starting routes in the Great Voyage Paradise."

Van Augur then said, "I haven't been to the Grand Line yet; I also came here by merchant ship."

"By the way, those guys at the bar are just a few who came to cause me trouble. Do you know any other guys?"

Barjas stroked his chin. "There is indeed another group of bounty hunters, from the Grand Line and from the East Blue."

"Boss, are you going to take them out?"

Thoth smiled and said, "I'll leave this to you. I'll take you back to the ship to identify the people first, and then Karina will come up with a plan to get rid of them."

Van Augur nodded: "By the way, Toth, I heard there are several other pretty good guys. Are you recruiting them?"

"Poison Wolf Toka, Deceptive Lady Echelly, and Barbarian Kane are all quite good, basically no weaker than me."

However, he is on the older side.

Thoth shook his head. "I don't plan to recruit too many people right now, and I don't have any extra rooms on my ship for them."

A glint of light appeared in Bages' eyes. It probably wasn't a problem with accommodation, but rather that he, as the boss of Toth, looked down on those people.

Compared to myself, I couldn't help but feel more relaxed.

Although he endured two beatings, his future was clearly brighter and more promising.

Soon after, they returned to the ship, and Nami and Van Augur were both very surprised by what they saw.

Van Augur's keen senses allowed him to perceive that the aura of every member of the crew was no less powerful than his own.

They were also surprised to find two Nami-like women on the ship, both of whom could be considered stunning beauties on this vast ocean.

However, Burgess's eyes showed a hint of apprehension towards Nami and Nojiko on the ship.

Based on my limited understanding of Thoth, the beautiful women on this ship must be more than just pretty.

After a brief self-introduction, he looked at Johnny and Joseph, a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

Johnny noticed this and a smile appeared in his eyes. Barjas laughed heartily.

"The boss said that to become a full crew member, you have to be able to fight you guys to a draw. Shall we practice?"

Nojiko approached Thoth, curiosity in his eyes: "I know Van Augur, is this Bages strong?"

Karina chuckled and said, "He's tough and thick-skinned. Even though Thoth held back, he wasn't killed. Besides, I can tell he's not a complicated guy."

However, he's a battle maniac.

Nojiko blinked, a hint of curiosity appearing in her eyes as she watched Bages challenge Johnny: "Is that so? Then I'll have to take a good look at him!"

Nami glanced at the two of them, and seeing that they looked like they were about to fight, she couldn't help but raise her voice:

"Stop fighting, all of you! No fighting on the ship!"

Now let's anchor and hoist the sails, and head to the beach on the other side of the island.

"If you want to fight, go fight there."

“Yes, Nami!” Johnny nodded quickly and told Bages to get to work.

Soon, the ship left the port.

Sailing around the islands.

However, not long after, Tot was surprised to find a naval warship anchored on a suitable, uninhabited shoreline.

But it was Smoker's ship.

108. Return to the Heart! Name!

"Hey Johnny, tell me, how strong are Nojiko and Nami?"

"Does she also possess that combined explosive power ability like Karina?"

"What? Did you suffer a loss at Sister Karina's hands?"

I'm guessing, did she get a beating after merging with Brother Thoth?

The two stood by the fence, Johnny looking at the newcomer with a strange expression.

In his long-term training and development of beastly instincts, this newcomer's physical qualities are probably no less than his own.

Although Karina is equally powerful now, the fact that Bages is so wary of her must mean exactly what I'm thinking.

Unable to resist, he looked at him with admiration. Barjes' eye twitched; having been seen through by Johnny, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed and angry.

"So, are you going to tell me or not?"

Joseph walked over and said to him earnestly, "On this ship, I have to remind you of a rule: you can joke around with Brother Thoth as you please, but you'd better not mess with those three big sisters."

The three boss ladies are not only powerful in themselves, but also have indispensable functions in sailing the seas. And most importantly, they are all Brother Thoth's soulmates.

Think about the pros and cons yourself.

Bages' mouth gaped open. Although he wasn't particularly fond of women, he could still distinguish between the absolute beauty and ugliness of women.

The three women on the ship were the most beautiful he had ever seen; in terms of looks, they were probably no less stunning than that of the sea monster.

They were also cooks, navigators, and accountants, making them key figures on a ship, second only to the captain in importance.

At that moment, he knew that these three women were people he couldn't afford to offend in the future; their whispers in his ear could be deadly!

However, we still need to thoroughly investigate their abilities; we must determine our level of respect for them based on their strength.

Barjes thought to himself.
