One Piece: Starting with Coercion and Enticement of Nami

Nami, whose violent nature is inherent, transforms from an adorable orange cat into a mythical white tiger—it's too much.

More importantly, the girl in front of him was one of his own, his absolute confidante.

Moreover, the white tiger can fly, and riding it through the sky is definitely more exhilarating than flying on your own.

A thought suddenly made sense.

Thoth gazed intently at Nami, whose face flushed crimson. He gently pinched her cheek, his eyes deep and intense.

"You eat!"

"Huh?" Nami was stunned.

She thought she must have misheard. Men naturally admire strength, let alone someone like Thoth who trains hard every day.

But when the fruit was pressed against her lips, Nami realized what was happening, and her eyes widened in confusion: "You don't like it?"

“I like it.” Thoth smiled. “But I’d rather you eat it than me.”

I want to see what level Nami, whom I've personally nurtured, will reach in the future.

This White Tiger Fruit is clearly a better match for you; it... has chosen you.

And I, too, have chosen you.

Upon hearing the last words, Nami's eyes suddenly lit up. "Great, I've chosen you too."

A complex look flashed in Nokiko's eyes, and Karina unconsciously pouted, completely fooled by her!

He couldn't help but look at the card fruit in his hand.

It was also Thoth who made him come to eat.

But why does it feel like I've lost?

That wretched mud-stick cat.

Nami didn't hesitate; since this was Thoth's expectation, she had to respond.

Thoth held the fruit, and Nami opened her mouth and took a bite, bursting with juice.

Nami's face turned ashen instantly. The indescribable stench was like a rotten, stinky fish that had been soaking in a jar during the hottest days of summer, mixed with the sticky, smelly socks and sour swill—a bizarre and overpowering odor.

She looked at Thoth with tears in her eyes, while Thoth's eyes were full of expectation: "Good boy! Eat it big, don't leave the stem, you can't waste a single drop of this treasure."

Nami nodded with tears in her eyes.

His eyes immediately hardened, and after five bites, he swallowed it all.

A trickle of juice escaped from her lips. Clutching her chest, Nami breathed heavily.

Karina was horrified. Was it really that bad? How horrible!

At that moment, Nami's pupils dilated slightly and then suddenly contracted, as a continuous, volcanic-like power surged forth from the depths of her body.

In an instant, the muscles in his arms bulged, his thighs thickened, and pure, snow-white hair grew from all over his body.

Strange black and gold patterns appeared among the fur on its body, and in the blink of an eye, a seven-meter-long mythical beast, the White Tiger, appeared.

The long, powerful tiger tail swayed.

Roar—

A vast and ancient aura of a superior being, carrying unparalleled pressure, emanated from the phantom beast, the white tiger, before him.

As the roar of the tiger appeared, a gentle breeze, a whirlwind, a gale, and a storm—gusts of platinum-gold wind—burst forth from her body in an instant.

089. Lucky Cat!

And at this moment.

Apart from Thoth, Nojiko and the others were all blown away by the whirlwind surrounding Nami in her white tiger form.

Nami blinked her tiger eyes, which had turned platinum and were filled with majesty. As if sensing the difference in the tiger's body, she took a step forward with her front legs, and wisps of breeze seemed to instinctively gather under her snow-white paws.

One step, two steps, three steps...

A holy and mighty white tiger rode the wind and sped away in a Mercedes.

She has no wings, yet she is beloved by the wind in nature.

She didn't consciously try to control it, but riding the wind was her innate instinct.

A platinum-gold wind swirled around my feet, making each step feel like walking on flat ground—flexible, free, and unrestrained.

A platinum-gold aurora-speed shadow streaked across the sky, leaving long, flowing trails.

"roar???"

Tiger Girl's mouth gaped open, her eyes filled with disbelief. In Nami, she saw the absolutely perfect version of herself from her fantasies.

It couldn't sit still any longer and paced back and forth anxiously on the deck, stretching out its limbs.

It let out a low growl, then ran quickly to Thoth, rubbing its big head hard against Thoth's arm, its voice urgent and eager.

[Nami has become one of us? So beautiful and amazing, can I become like that too?]

Through passive emotional resonance, Thoth perceived the meaning behind Tiger Girl's roar.

Reaching out to rub the tiger's face, Thoth lowered his eyes to meet the longing gaze, and suddenly laughed:

"As a hybrid white tiger, you should have confidence. Aren't you already able to sense changes in airflow?"

Trust me and trust yourself.

"Have unwavering faith, it will happen eventually."

Tiger Girl's anxious mood was soothed, and the longing and envy in her icy blue eyes gradually became firm.

Thoth believed in the concept of bloodlines in this world, because the world's greatest scientist, Begaponke, had proven it.

Bloodline information, bloodline factors, and life design maps within organisms.

As a user of the White Tiger ability, Nami already possesses this bloodline factor within her.

In the future, I might be able to create a bloodline-inducing evolution drug through medical techniques, and the evolutionary plants [IQ] on the Golden Lion Floating Island are capable of evolving themselves based on the strong desires of living beings.

Therefore, Tiger Girl's sudden desire to possess a dream is not some unfounded fantasy.

"This is the White Tiger, a Mythical Beast?"

Karina's eyes widened in shock. The oppressive aura that had just emanated from Nami made her heart pound with fear, as if she herself were an ant.

She involuntarily came to Thoth's side and reached out to grab his arm tightly, just like a child who instinctively hides behind their parents for support when they see something dangerous.

At this moment, sharing the same emotions, Karina's eyes gradually calmed down, and Thoth nodded:

"Not bad. As a Mythical Zoan type Devil Fruit, it is capable of causing the user to undergo a complete transformation."

Not only physical abilities, but also the mind gradually draws closer to this fantastical creature as one uses their powers.

Karina's eyes widened suddenly. As intelligent as she was, she looked up at Thoth, a strong sense of wariness flashing in her eyes:

"Mind? Could it be that Zoan-type abilities can also affect the mind of an Interference Ability user?"

Upon hearing Karina's words, even Nojiko couldn't sit still, looking at her with immense worry in his eyes, "Is this true?"

Johnny's eyes narrowed, a look of surprise appearing in them. "Huh? You can't believe it."

Thoth nodded, glanced at Nami flying overhead, and shouted:

"Nami, I have something to say!!"

The Mercedes-Benz White Tiger in the sky suddenly stopped and turned, returning to land on the deck in an instant with a gust of wind.

Nami stretched out her tiger body, with soft cracking sounds coming from within. In the blink of an eye, she stood upright, transforming into a slender, exotic female half-beast form.

"What's wrong with Tote?"

Nami looked at Thoth with excitement and curiosity, and she couldn't wait to say:

“I feel like I’ve become super strong. I feel like I can take on all three of them by myself.”

As he spoke, he looked at Nojiko and Johnny with a smile in his eyes.

The long, black and white tiger tail danced nimbly and lightly behind its rump, and it walked with cat-like steps to Thoth. Its two erect tiger ears twitched twice.

Grasping her sharp, five-fingered right hand, Nami giggled, revealing two pairs of white, sharp fangs.

Thoth pinched Nami's tiger ears, feeling the fur in his hand that resembled the finest silk, then looked at them and said:

"I have told you before that the Devil Fruit has a state of awakening."

As they nodded, Thoth continued to explain: "Unlike Paramecia and Logia types, Zoan type users have the ability to transform into that creature, but they also gain the bestial nature from the corresponding creature."

The greater the power, the more mysterious the bestial nature it possesses.

As he spoke, he looked at Johnny and said, "When you use your abilities, I've observed that your nature instinctively becomes cruel and tyrannical."

This is the influence of the colossal dragon-like instincts that coexist with you.

Johnny's expression turned serious.

At this moment, Thoth gently squeezed those exquisitely soft tiger ears, and as her body trembled slightly, he slowly spoke:

"That bestiality is like the evil thoughts that exist on the back of your consciousness. When the ability user awakens their ability, they will probably be met with some kind of corrosive impact from that bestiality."

Successfully resisting, awakening one's abilities.

If resistance fails, one's self-consciousness will inevitably be controlled by bestial instincts.

At this point, Thoth suddenly laughed: "Of course, this is a crisis that will only occur when facing the awakening of abilities. If you don't reach the awakening stage, then disregard what I said."

After all, awakening one's abilities is not something an ordinary person can do.

Johnny's expression froze. Far from being reassured by Thoth's last words, he was instead provoked into a rebellious streak. His neck stiffened and his face flushed red.

"Don't worry, brother! I will definitely awaken in the future. A mere battle of consciousness is no challenge for me. It's just a giant dragon. If I lose to it, I will despise myself."

"Hahaha!" Totten grinned and laughed. "That's right. As long as your willpower surpasses your animalistic instincts, you will definitely succeed."

I have the highest hopes for you.

Johnny immediately smiled happily.

At the same time, I secretly resolved to work even harder in the future, to hone myself with ten or even a hundred times more effort than I have now.

As an animal-type ability user, he is least afraid of hardship and toil.

On the contrary, it is through hardship and toil that one's potential is truly unleashed.

This is something my older brother said seriously.

Thinking of this, Johnny nodded seriously to Thoth and then vanished.

He jumped to the shore, entered half-beast form, and began to train his body and cultivate.

Joseph was furious and openly started to practice more, as if he didn't care who he was talking to.

In an instant, he gave chase.

……

Thoth smiled at the two of them, while Nami stared intently at Thoth, and suddenly spoke:

"Want to ride the white tiger and fly?"

Thoth's eyes lit up, Nami's lips curled up slightly, and then her body transformed into a white tiger form, with a white-gold wind suddenly surging forth.

Nami lifted and coiled around Thoth, lifting him onto her back, and with a whoosh, she sped away on the wind.

In the blink of an eye, the two appeared in mid-air dozens of meters away, and Nami quickly ran towards the sky.

Karina and Nokiko looked at each other, Karina speechless:

"That guy..."

Nojiko was helpless, but then looked at the card fruit in Karina's hand:

Aren't you going to eat it?

Karina blinked. "Although Thoth doesn't eat this either, I want to wait a bit longer. Paramecia-type abilities don't directly improve a user's physical attributes. I want to consult him properly when he gets back."

Nokiko nodded with a smile, then glanced at the two hot-blooded idiots, Curly King, below the ship.

Suddenly feeling a sense of urgency, I consciously began to practice meditation on the boat.
