One Piece: Starting with Coercion and Enticement of Nami

I saw a hint of ruthlessness and excitement flickering in the first mate's eyes.

The arrogance that emanated from those around him, and the mocking smiles on the faces of the remaining cadres as they watched the new round of competition begin.

As people looked around, a slender figure with orange hair suddenly caught their eye.

He was dressed in loose, coarse cloth clothing, with a slightly dark complexion, making him look like a man, but his orange eyes were lively and held a hint of cunning.

Thoth's eyes widened instantly, and he couldn't help but take a closer look. The guy who had haunted his dreams and whom he wanted to break was also orange-haired. However, at this moment, the orange-haired figure seemed to sense something and inadvertently met Thoth's gaze.

Immediately afterwards, Thoth saw the sudden panic in the other person's eyes.

Feeling guilty?

A sinister smile unconsciously curved his lips: "Got you, Sun Ni."

Nicknamed Little Flower, a female thief, in the East China Sea, Tote couldn't help but think of a certain guy.

Could it really be her?

Thoth stared intently at him as he stood in a corner of the ship, noticing the growing tension in his eyes.

They set off immediately, crossing the sea, and...

Seeing Thoth leave, Nami's heart skipped a beat. She cursed inwardly, "What's that ruthless guy doing here? Is he here to join Norton's Pirates too?"

Looking around, he noticed that everyone's attention was drawn to the competition below. Suddenly, he clutched his lower abdomen, feigning a stomachache, and quickly got up and walked briskly into the cabin.

All she can do now is use the intricacies of the cabin to evade Thoth's pursuit.

"Hey? Who are you?"

As soon as he stepped onto the deck, Thoth was stopped by someone. He frowned and cursed unhappily:

"Are you blind? I am Tote."

Hai Chouhuan was taken aback, but when he heard that familiar tone and looked at him closely, his mouth dropped open:

"Thoth?"

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to look so respectable after cleaning up."

Thoth's face darkened, and he gripped the hilt of his sword. The latter quickly stepped back, giving an awkward smile.

"Just kidding, just kidding. By the way, where have you been these past two days?"

Toth ignored him and turned to run towards the cabin. Hai Xizhi, unable to contain himself, pursed his lips and continued muttering under his breath:

"What's the use of being good-looking? You'll be in trouble sooner or later."

Following that figure, as soon as he entered the cabin, Thoth's eyes narrowed slightly. The cabin was dimly lit, and his vision was momentarily disrupted as he came in from a brighter spot.

However, I saw that figure go down to the floor below the deck.

Thoth took three steps at a time, using his familiarity with the area to his advantage, and rushed toward the stairs leading to the lower level.

The basement level, in the corridor.

A soft click came from not far away. Thoth rushed forward, opened the closed door, and then looked at a small, still-shaking door on the right side of the room.

The cabins were all equipped with protective gear and belonged to the captain and officers.

In the ordinary cabins located below deck, each cabin has a small door connecting to the next one, but some of the doors are locked.

Thoth chased after him, passing through three doors in a row, when suddenly, he stopped in front of the fourth closed door.

It was only because the light but distinct footsteps suddenly disappeared.

In the dimly lit cabin, looking at the closed door in front of me, a slightly rapid heartbeat could be heard clearly in the silence.

Thoth's gaze was calm. Was he lying in ambush, about to launch a sneak attack?

He was about to kick the door when his eyes flickered, and he put his leg down again. If he made a loud noise, it might attract the attention of people on the ship's deck.

He reached out and pushed the door open, his right foot suddenly sticking out, only to be quickly pulled back in.

But just then, from the right side of the door, a stick, accompanied by a whooshing sound, suddenly swung down.

Then, with a loud crack, the stick slammed heavily onto the floor.

Thoth extended his right foot and quickly stepped on it, causing the wooden stick to fall to the ground instantly, along with the orange-haired figure behind him who was tightly gripping the stick.

The wooden stick slammed onto the floor with a loud crack.

“Got you.” Thoth sneered, grabbing his neck and pulling him close, then slamming him to the ground. His left knee pressed down on his chest, and a different physical sensation arose. Thoth frowned slightly.

"It really is a woman?"

"Waaaaah, let me go!" Under this immense pressure, Nami's face flushed red, and her breastbone, pierced with pain beneath her bodice.

"I'm warning you, I'm a member of Norton's Seafood Company. Let me go right now!"

Because of the intense pain, his originally feigned hoarse tone became distorted and sharp.

Thoth snorted coldly, having tricked her:

"Do you know that I'm Captain Norton's confidant? Do you think he'd risk his temper for a little rascal who stole my money?"

Nami struggled and paused, a hint of fear finally appearing in her eyes. Thoth looked at her with a half-smile, and suddenly pulled a crystal hard candy from his pocket, stuffing it into her mouth as she slightly opened it.

And his fingers went so far as to reach deep into her throat, and in her discomfort, she instinctively opened her mouth wide and swallowed.

At this moment, Thoth released her, and Nami quickly got up and knelt on the ground, reaching out to cup her throat to induce vomiting, but Thoth grabbed her wrist.

"What do you want to do? Do you think I'll let you spit that thing out?"

"What exactly did you feed me?"

Nami's eyes showed unusual panic.

Thoth gave a cold laugh:

"Without my antidote, the 'Stretch Leg and Stare Eye Pill' will surely cause you to die a miserable death with your intestines ruptured and blood flowing from all seven orifices within half a day."

013. Coercion and inducement!

"..."

After a long moment of stunned silence, Nami's legs gave way and she sat down on the floor. Thoth stood upright with his arms crossed, looking down at her.

"What's your name?"

"Nami... Nami."

Since this guy could call me "Little Flower," there was no need for me to lie anymore. After all, my name wasn't something I couldn't say.

Moreover, given her current situation, she felt it was better to be honest.

"gender?"

"Woman...woman."

Nami suddenly looked up and glared at Thoth, like a bristling, toothy kitten.

"Are you asking a question you already know the answer to?"

"How big is it?"

“C... no, almost 15 years old.”

Having already revealed her true colors, Nami decided to stop pretending and, with a sharp, defiant voice, said, "What exactly do you want? I accept that I've fallen into your trap."

Yes, it was my fault. I stole your wallet, but I don't want to die.

And you look like you have something for me to do. Tell me, what will it take for you to let me go?

I can return your wallet to you.

After the initial panic and fear, Nami had come to her senses. If he really wanted to kill her, given the ruthlessness of this guy in front of her, he would have already stabbed her through with a sword.

If she really couldn't survive, it wouldn't be unacceptable, but it would be a waste of the life Bellemere had given in exchange for.

“Wallet?” Thoth uttered the word, his gaze immediately turning hostile.

Nami felt the air pressure drop and her skin inexplicably feel cold as she listened to the resentment in Thoth's voice.

I couldn't help but chuckle.

Thoth glared at her, gritting his teeth, and said, "I swore that if I caught you, I would break your legs."

Upon hearing this, Nami was alarmed and quickly shuffled backward, flailing her arms wildly in front of her, and said in a panic:

"No, no, if I break my leg I won't be able to do anything for you."

Bang! With a loud thud, her back slammed against the wall, causing her to grit her teeth and groan in pain.

Thoth strode up to her, bent down as if to grab her leg, and Nami was terrified, blurting out:

"No, no, as long as you don't break my legs, I'll do anything you want."

Thoth stopped moving, raised an eyebrow, straightened up, and smiled knowingly:

"Really?"

Nami nodded repeatedly, and Thoth tilted his head to look at her: "Okay, take off your clothes."

Nami froze, her confusion turning to terror. Tears welled up in her eyes as she bit her lip hard. After hesitating for a few seconds, she trembled as she pulled down the zipper of her coat, which slipped into her arm.

She revealed her flat body wearing an orange and white striped short-sleeved shirt, and then continued the action by lifting the hem of the shirt upwards.

"You actually did it? I thought you'd rather die than submit!"

Thoth spoke softly at this moment, and Nami paused, then continued, but her words came out in a hoarse voice:

"I still have things to do. I can't die, nor can I waste time being seriously injured. If this is what you want to do, then please spare me and let me leave unharmed after you've finished."

The obedience test ended there. Thoth only wanted to see how far she would go for survival, so he spoke casually:

"Alright, put your clothes on. I wouldn't do that kind of thing to a blonde girl who's not even 15 yet."

I'm not a good person, but I'm not a scumbag either.

By the way, my name is V. Thoth, you can call me Thoth from now on.

Nami was stunned, her mind a complete blank, unable to process what was happening.

"Thoth? What does that mean?"

“I’ve heard some beggars say that you’re not from this island, that you’re a lone person from the outside world.”

But they often steal things here and steal their business.

"Then you must know navigation and be able to sail alone on this Eastern Sea?"

Nami froze, then gritted her teeth and cursed, "It's those damn beggars."

"Oh?" Thoth raised an eyebrow, while Nami continued angrily:

"You chased me for a long time that day, all the way to the territory of those beggar gangs."

I was on the roof not far away at the time, and I was worried that they might kill you. I was thinking of going to rescue you if you were in danger.

But unexpectedly..."

Thoth gave a half-smile: "Didn't realize you still had a conscience?"

Nami gave an awkward smile and quickly changed the subject: "Yes, that's right, I do know a little about navigation, so what do you want me to do?"

Thoth's eyes flashed: "You infiltrated this ship to steal Norton's treasure, didn't you?"

Nami's face darkened upon hearing this, but Thoth seemed not to notice and continued to state his plans:

"I intend to leave Norton Seaman. Norton is a bottomless tyrant, a scoundrel!"

Nami suddenly looked up and stared at Thoth in surprise, feeling a slight sense of relief, realizing that she hadn't run into his gun again.

"This sea is very magical, and to travel on it, you need a ship and navigation skills, but I have neither."

Nami blinked, as if she had guessed something. Thoth grinned and looked at her, continuing:

"Although I don't know why, you were even willing to risk your life to steal Haili..."

As the saying goes, "If you walk by the river often, your shoes are bound to get wet," a truth you're probably already quite familiar with.

"Your head is on the line; one wrong move and you'll die. But sometimes, living can be worse than dying."

Nami listened to these heartfelt words and fell silent, a deep sense of grievance welling up inside her, making her nose sting with tears.
