"Dual-wielding style. Secret technique. Tornado."

As Zoro was a trainee who joined the ship, the responsibility of maintaining the ship's deck hygiene naturally fell to him according to custom.

However, he felt that using only one mop was too time-consuming. So, holding two mops, he quickly moved across the deck and cleaned very fast.

The mop was swung, the air whistling, but a drop of dirty water splashed onto Nami's face by the second-floor railing.

The girl fell silent for a few seconds, then called out in a deep voice, "Zoro! If you're going to clean, then clean properly, stop playing with the cleaning tools!"

Zoro stopped and raised an eyebrow at Nami, the navigator. "Can't I just clean it up? I'll finish quickly, and Burgess can wipe it with a rag later."

You're so troublesome!

Nami's lips twitched, and her gaze turned hostile: "Do you want to get beaten up?"

Zoro let out a cold laugh:

"You think I wouldn't hit a woman?"

Nami took a deep breath, and in the next instant, a whirlwind swept around her, appearing in front of him in the blink of an eye. She punched him in the face, Zoro's pupils contracted, and a sharp pain swept over his face. In an instant, he turned into a black shadow and flew backward.

While still in mid-air, Nami roared with sharp teeth, "Go to the sea and reflect on your actions! I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"

Nami took a deep breath, and a platinum tornado shot out instantly.

In the blink of an eye, Zoro was swept up by the tornado, arcing through the sky before crashing heavily into the sea a hundred meters away.

A few seconds later, his silhouette floated up on the sea.

Nami snorted coldly, "Aren't you going to hit a woman? Do you think you can beat me? You're probably the weakest idiot on the ship."

As he spoke, he glanced at Bages, whose eye was twitching on the deck, and gave him a cold, stern look:

"What are you looking at me for? Go and pull him up, or do you want to go for a soak with him too?"

Barjes: "..."

"I can't mess with him, I can't mess with him," he thought, and quickly jumped into the sea, swimming freestyle towards Zoro's sinking spot.

On the second-floor balcony, Thoth observed everything, while Nokigo, who was drinking tea at a nearby table, looked astonished.

"Nami's control over the White Tiger Golden Wind has become increasingly refined. How come Zoro didn't turn that wind, which has sharp cutting properties, into a bloody mess?"

Thoth exclaimed, "It's Armament Haki! It's an invisible defensive ability that blends into the wind, and through the Breath of All Things, she can control it at will."

It's like a swordsman's choice between slashing and not slashing.

However, due to the addition of Armament Haki, the resulting blunt force is still considerable, and coupled with the force of the impact from crashing into the sea from the air, Zoro is currently unable to withstand such force.

"Huh~ Nami is so violent, that's nothing like me. I'm so gentle!"

Karina chuckled, and at that moment Nami stepped forward, her eye twitching: "Talking behind people's backs, you'll get mouth sores!"

Karina blinked and stuck her tongue out at Nami. "No way, I didn't lie. I only tell the truth."

Nami's gaze turned hostile. Karina's eyes darted around, and instantly, looking pitiful, she got up and ran to Thoth's side, grabbing his arm and starting to tattle:

"Look at Nami, she's beating me up again!"

That subtle elasticity clung tightly to Thoth's arm, and as Nami watched it be squeezed and deformed, she let out a cold laugh:

"You really know how to seize every opportunity."

Karina rolled her eyes at her: "I can't compare to you, you're always looking for an opportunity to sneak a bite."

Nami smiled smugly: "If you're so capable, then go and steal some food yourself."

Nokiko was speechless: "You two should be more mindful of your image."

A cough! A sound rang out as Zoro was carried ashore by Burgess, looking utterly incredulous. Burgess patted him on the shoulder, his eyes subtly conveying his thoughts:

"Brother Zoro! Let me tell you something. You're probably the weakest one on this ship. Also, don't provoke the navigator's authority."

Zoro's eyes darkened. "That woman, I'll kill her sooner or later."

Barjas's eye twitched. He silently moved away from him, trying to avoid getting blood splattered on him.

Johnny and the others blinked. At that moment, Tiger Girl silently appeared behind him. Bages' mouth opened slightly. Zoro noticed something was wrong and quickly turned his head, but in the blink of an eye, he was whipped away by Tiger Girl's tail.

Thump! With a scream, a wave splashed up on the sea.

Tiger Girl growled and grinned, tilting her head back as she glanced at Bages, then silently and arrogantly walked past him.

Bages' eye twitched. Tiger Girl, who had mastered the dual-colored domineering aura, was very powerful.

And she's also a huge fan of Nami.

Sigh! He deserved it for being so rude, but after thinking about it, he turned around and jumped back into the sea to retrieve him.

Sigh! My life is so tiring.

……

On the vast, boundless sea.

Clang! Clang clang clang!!

on the deck.

Johnny, wielding two swords, was engaged in a frenzied battle with Zoro, who wielded three swords, on the deck covered with a layer of dark blue-green Kodama floor.

The two swords Zoro is holding are two fine weapons that he found in the ship's armory and had previously stored away.

The two were of similar swordsmanship level, but their attacks were equally ferocious. Thoth stood on the second floor, where the entire cabin walls were covered with a layer of dark blue spirit wood that was comparable to steel.

Let them fight it out.

He would occasionally offer them pointers, and from Zoro, Thoth learned the swordsmanship of the Shimotsuki Isshin-ryu style.

It is a very exquisite swordsmanship, with a focus on the development of the spirit and mind.

I have a different feeling about Tote now.

Extract its essence and integrate it into your own being.

Nami controlled the storm, sailing at top speed across the sea with full sails.

Four days later, in the morning, the group arrived at the town of Elpha, the 16th Naval Division in the Konomiya Islands.

They stopped here for rest and repairs, and at the same time, Tot obtained a new batch of various rare supplies from Merka.

Kaya was delighted to see the Thoth group; her body was now mostly recovered.

However, Thoth still took the time to regulate her life meridians with life essence and taught her an advanced set of physical exercises.

She will be healthier in the future.

At the same time, Thoth gave Melka a fruit containing abundant life essence to nourish her body as a token of gratitude for the rare resources he had given her.

After finishing their business, under Kaya's guidance, everyone explored the increasingly bustling town.

noon,

A banquet was held on the ship, and Kaya came to participate. There was delicious food, beautiful singing, and a happy crowd.

In the afternoon, Thoth took some time to visit the rat and Zango, and talked to them about future developments.

The three agreed that Zango would be recommended by Rat to attend the officer training camp at the Naval Headquarters.

However, even with the achievements of Crow last time, the mouse still failed to get promoted, and he was very resentful.

At the same time, Thoth provided Zango with six mutant fruits to enhance his strength. After consuming them and digesting them through strong self-suggestion, Zango's mental strength and hypnotic abilities underwent a powerful transformation.

Furthermore, this act awakened the power of Observation Haki.

The hypnotic abilities became more powerful and skillful, possessing the effect of deeply modifying people's thoughts and consciousness. As an experiment, mice were used as targets.

Under Thoth's arrangement, the rat's mind was completely and permanently hypnotized, turning it into a die-hard follower highly praised by Thoth. In the future, the rat will take care of everything Thoth needs to take care of in the East China Sea.

Not only rats, but all the officers of the 16th branch and the "powerful" taxi drivers were hypnotized by Zango from beginning to end.

From then on, even if Thoth and the others continued their journey to the Great Sea Route, they no longer needed to worry about the greedy Rat.

The next morning.

The Thoths left the rats.

Port area.

Kaya and Melka saw off Thoth's ship here. Kaya looked reluctant to part, and after the ship could no longer be seen, she returned home and looked at Melka with serious eyes:

"Dad, you said before that you were planning to expand your business to the Great Sea Route?"

Melka raised an eyebrow. “Yes, our business in the East China Sea is already big enough. Our market here is basically saturated, while the Great Sea Route will have a much larger market.”

Just like our family's "Hey Panda" brand, which has already penetrated the market to the Great Voyages.

Kaya bit her lip. "Dad, I want a Devil Fruit. I'll become very strong. My teacher taught me that."

"I'd like to visit the Grand Line then too."

A hint of helplessness flashed in Melka's eyes, but she did not object:

"Then I'll think of a solution."

……

Time flies, and it's noon.

Not far away on the sea, an oval three-story giant ship appeared, with goldfish heads at both ends.

Barati, a restaurant on the sea.

Soon after, the Breaker docked at the Barraty anchorage.

on the deck.

Nokiko looked at the giant ship with curiosity. "Is this the gathering place of the renowned battle chefs of the East China Sea? I heard that the food on board is super delicious."

Especially considering the delicious food Chef Zeff makes, Thoth, do you think he'd agree to trade such an expensive recipe?

Thoth smiled and said, "Let's go up there and try it to see if it's as good as the legends say before we talk about it."

Immediately, everyone set off, leaving Tiger Girl to watch the boat.

Stepping onto the Barratier walkway, Tote inhaled the fragrance wafting through the air, a hint of anticipation appearing in his eyes.

With a ding, Bajas pushed open the restaurant door, and everyone filed in.

The floor was polished to an almost reflective shine with tile, and the restaurant resembled a banquet hall in high society.

It is spacious, bright, and clean.

As Thoth and his group arrived, curious gazes swept over them.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of people drawing in cold air rang out.

"Weapon Master Tot...? They're actually in the same group?"

"Wow!!! It's the three primary color witches from the Weapon Master's ship: the orange-haired Storm Girl Nami, the blue-haired Enchantress Nojiko, and the purple-haired Card Girl Karina?"

"It really is them! So beautiful and handsome! Am I dreaming? They are the heroines of Donghai! They are role models!"

"Hiss! How did they get here? Could it be that Barati has a target they want to attack here?"

Amidst the admiring glances, Tote looked around and walked over to a large dining table by the window.

As soon as everyone sat down, a black figure swiftly slid down to his knees. He had a lecherous look on his face, red hearts popping from his eyes, snorting from his nostrils, and his arms outstretched as if to embrace the sun, his voice rising and falling in a monotone:

"Ah!! It turns out that three beautiful ladies have graced us with their presence. My name is Sanji, and I am the head chef here in Baratie."

Ah! May I ask what those three beautiful ladies, who seem like goddesses descended from the sun, moon, and stars, would like to eat?

Watching this guy's exaggerated performance, Thoth remained expressionless, while Nami blinked and then pouted.

"So-so, boring!"

Karina rolled her eyes:

"Exaggerated! Meaningless."

Noki frowned.

"Chef? Never heard of him."

It was as if three sharp arrows had pierced his heart; Sanji's face froze instantly.

His eyes were filled with disbelief, and he looked utterly dejected, as if all his energy had been drained away, muttering to himself:
