One Piece: Starting with Coercion and Enticement of Nami

Toth waved his hand. "No need to say that. It's what it is. Your labor costs still need to be paid."

Left with no other choice, the mayor took Thoth to the shipyard on their island, where Karina followed Thoth's instructions.

Five cards materialized, and five dark blue-black wood spirit tree trunks, each eight meters in diameter and one hundred and forty meters long, covered with scales, appeared.

The mayor's wife brought the craftsmen over, and after a series of professional measurements, they brainstormed and began to draw up plans on the spot.

During this time, Toth's Wavebreaker and Bages took the elevator to the island.

I witnessed the spectacular scenery of Clockwork Island.

They were all surprised. At Thoth's suggestion, those who wanted to go on the island could go sightseeing, and those who wanted to practice could go and practice.

However, before doing these things, Thoth arranged for them to clean up the unconscious pirates at the castle.

As for the people on the island, a town resident went along to identify them.

Not long after.

The structural sketches for the new ship have been completed.

At the craftsmen's instruction, Thoth swung his sword, and the trunk of the Wood Spirit Tree was quickly divided into shapes suitable for shipbuilding.

116. Nami's assist, Karina's attack! Evil is coming!

"No, no, no, the captain's room must be respectable, luxurious, and with a king-size bed."

"Yes, yes, yes. The living room and bar are combined and need to be luxurious, so use the highest-grade materials. What? You don't have those materials here?"

"That's alright, we'll go buy it."

"Your drawing is awful. Go away and give me the pen."

He was referring to the luxurious ship where he and Toth would live in the future.

Nami has 1000% enthusiasm.

Soon, with Nami's help, every detail of the ship was perfected.

Important shipboard facilities such as luxury swings, gyms, and treasure vaults, as well as the ship's propulsion structure, were quickly adjusted.

The advanced technology of Clockwork Island has also been added to it.

The ship is powered by wind-driven spring-driven geared electricity generation and storage.

External propulsion is installed on both sides of the stern.

An hour later, Johnny, Baggios and the others were taken by Nami to a nearby bustling island to buy the missing materials.

Watching them leave this place aboard the Wavebreaker.

At this moment, only Thoth and Nojiko remained on Clockwork Island. Looking at Thoth, a smile appeared in Nojiko's eyes:

"Nami said they won't be coming back tonight, so it looks like we'll have to stay at a hotel tonight."

As she said this, she thought of Karina's frustration when Nami dragged her away, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

Seeing this, Thoth smiled and said, "I can use the Wood Spirits to build a wooden house on the island's shore."

Nokiko's eyes lit up. Wouldn't that mean she could have a good time that night?

I remember Nami saying that Thoth's cabin was very comfortable to sleep in.

"Let's go! Let's go shopping first, and then we'll have a picnic tonight."

This small town, built high in the sky, may be small, but it boasts many interesting and unique industries.

A variety of distinctive and beautiful clothing, and various mechanical products with spring-loaded gears.

Due to the rule of the Great Bear King, there is also a sophisticated military factory here.

Thoth and Nochiga went inside to visit, and they could see that the munitions factory contained a great deal of advanced technology in clockwork gears and other munitions.

It seems that Van Augur could learn from the clockwork gear technology here to upgrade his "Thousand Heights" gun.

Thoth and Nojigo strolled around the town like an ordinary couple.

Holding Thoth's arm, Nokiko's smile grew brighter and more captivating along the way.

……

under the night sky.

There were no clouds in the night sky, and the sky was filled with a dazzling river of stars. The two of them lay in front of a wooden house on the edge of the island.

The wood spirit blankets made by Thoth grow on the ground, soft and comfortable.

Gazing at the beautiful, dazzling night sky, Nokiko's eyes were filled with a sense of utter enchantment.

"You said the starry sky is so dazzling, could there be other creatures on it?"

They are watching us here with rapt attention, just like we are now.

"Anything is possible! The universe is vast, and if there is one, there will be two."

Hearing Nocigo's sighs, Thoth couldn't help but express the same sentiment.

The girl sat up, looked down at Thoth, and a smile slowly appeared in her eyes:

"It's getting late, let's go back to our room and rest!"

Noki gently pulled Tote's arm, and Tote stood up. The two returned to the cabin, where a dreamy array of glowing plants emitted a hazy light.

Nokiko blinked, her heart filled with emotion, but thinking of what was about to happen... she turned around and hugged Thoth's neck.

With a hint of mesmerization in her beautiful eyes, she looked at the man so close to her, and Noki's lips gently touched his:

“You said that in our spiritual practice, we need to explore the unknown. I feel that there are quite a few unknowns about me.”

Looking at the girl so close, their lips still fragrant, the two of them made their way to the bed.

Thoth looked at the dazzlingly beautiful girl in front of him, her pearly white skin adorned with touches of cherry blossom pink.

The distance between them, however, has been steadily closing without them realizing it...

Nokiko murmured softly, "I think we can move on to the next step."

A short while later, Nokiko's body trembled slightly, and a look of pain appeared on her beautiful face.

But soon, a delicate smile of satisfaction slowly spread across her lips.

The starry sky was dazzling, with countless stars twinkling. Inside the wooden house, dreamlike plants emitted a hazy, beautiful glow.

That night, Thoth led Nojigo triumphantly into uncharted territory.

For exploring the unknown.

The girl has plenty of courage.

The next day...

When Tote opened his eyes, a stunningly beautiful scene greeted him.

Noki sat up, a gentle smile on her lips, her eyes fixed on Thoth. Seeing Thoth awake, her smile grew even brighter.

"Are you awake?"

Her fair hand, resting on Toth's chest, had slightly curved fingertips:

"We're going to practice later, so let's do a warm-up exercise first," said Ying Sangjun.

After you have completely released your energy.

The two went to wash up.

After breakfast.

At 10 a.m., Nami and the others returned to the island after purchasing the materials.

The craftsmen, now fully prepared, began building ships for Thoth with great enthusiasm.

Johnny Salo and his friends began their one-on-one combat training in the open areas of the island.

Thoth and Nami helped process the incredibly tough timber at the shipyard, and as time went by, the shipbuilding work changed every day.

The eighth day since arriving at Clockwork Island.

5 p.m.

The edge of Clockwork Island.

Tote sat cross-legged here.

His dark blue eyes gazed at the vast, boundless sea in the distance, his senses sharpened, and his mind was filled with a variety of thoughts.

Countless thoughts assaulted Thoth's consciousness, veins bulged on his forehead, but amidst the breath of all things, Thoth's expression remained calm.

a moment.

[Hint: Your Observation Haki skill "Mastery 2000/2000" has reached its maximum proficiency. Your Observation Haki skill will automatically advance.]

[Hint: Your Observation Haki has been upgraded from "Mastery" to "Mastery"! Gain +2 to all attributes!]

[Hint: Your Observation Haki skill has been upgraded to "Mastery," and your "Emotional Resonance" trait has advanced to "Mind Reading": This allows you to perceive and resonate with emotions and thoughts, enabling you to convey your own consciousness to others and interfere with their minds and thoughts.]

[Hint: Your Observation Haki "Mastery" is at 1/5000. The next level is "Peak of Perfection".]

The enhancement of basic attributes brings a powerful and abundant sensation from both inside and outside the body.

Thoth's Observation Haki has undergone another transformation, allowing him to perceive the power within Observation Haki.

Mind reading and resonance, thought interference.

The stream of thoughts flooding into his mind from the outside world annoyed Thoth.

At this moment, Thoth finally understood why Count Barolok Redfield in the original story chose to travel alone.

A surge of Conqueror's Haki erupted from his consciousness. He dispelled the senses he had been contemplating, and at the same time, Totto's mind stirred.

With the "contradiction" characteristic of Conqueror's Haki taking effect, Thoth constantly adjusted and quickly became able to consciously conceal those thoughts.

A short while later, Thoth opened his eyes, a look of satisfaction appearing in them:

"Being able to read minds is not a wonderful power. People's hearts are unpredictable. I can have this power, but I don't need to understand everything clearly."

Moreover, Thoth knew that virtually no one would want to live with someone who could read minds.

Creating beauty through distance is no joke.

At that moment, in his perception, a faint light approached from not far away, and Karina's figure materialized beside Thoth.

She sat down lightly beside Thoth, a hint of curiosity in her eyes:

"After merging with the wood spirit Karina you created, there will be a peculiar sense of resonance and connection between us."

"Did something happen that caused that intense emotional fluctuation in you just now?"

Karina gently touched Thoth with her right hand, and at that moment, a strange resonance of life pulses appeared between the two of them.

Unlike card fusion, the two people's consciousnesses naturally connect.

Karina's eyes widened slightly. At that moment, her Observation Haki and Thoth's Observation Haki naturally resonated and interacted together.

Her Observation Haki was suddenly amplified many times over under this strange resonance.

A jumble of thoughts surged through her consciousness like bombs.

Karina's face turned pale instantly, and she quickly released Thoth as if she had been electrocuted. It took her a while to come to her senses.

Turning to look at Thoth, Karina saw the subtle complexity in his eyes, blinked, and guiltily looked away.

"I apologize. I didn't know things would suddenly turn out this way. I discovered your secret. You won't silence me, will you?"

Hearing Karina mutter to herself, Thoth rolled his eyes at her helplessly, "I should have known better than to give you the Wood Spirit clone."

Upon hearing this, Karina immediately grabbed Thoth's arm, her eyes wary.

"No, you can't take it back. So what if you can read minds now? I don't care. We've been merging every day, and I'm completely unguarded in front of you."

You already knew all my thoughts, didn't you?

And I will keep it absolutely secret; it's an absolute secret between the two of us.

I won't tell anyone.

Looking at Karina's eagerness, Thoth was speechless: "I never said I was going to retrieve the Wood Spirit clone."
