One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

If you encounter a Flying or Water-type Pokémon that is weak to Electric, Nami can use the Electric type's swift and powerful nature to quickly defeat it.

However, if the opponent is a Ground-type Pokémon, she will have to give up her Electric-type moves and use her Treasure Trove and her three-section staff to fight against the opponent.

However, Nami is, after all, a human, and there is an inherent racial difference between her and Pokémon bred specifically for battle, not to mention type advantages...

As a result, during yesterday's game time, a level 17 Nami was sent back to the Pokémon Center in Cerulean City by a level 18 Sandshrew.

With no other option, Akane and Nami had to start over and temporarily switch characters, having Zoro defeat the opponent instantly before switching back to Nami to continue clearing the map.

Yesterday's defeat clearly left Nami in a bad mood.

Fortunately, we had a great start today.

Nami successfully leveled up after defeating her first opponent.

Watching Nami test the changes in the power of her upgraded moves, Akane immediately began to ponder:

"At this rate of upgrades, Nami should have no problem defeating Arlong."

"The key is still the speed at which you progress through the levels..."

“Nami, who only has Electric-type moves, is completely unable to deal with Ground-type Pokémon. It seems that calling in outside help is the only option right now.”

"It seems we need to increase Usopp's workload ahead of schedule and have him finish making the Weather Stick ahead of time."

The first version of the Weather Stick didn't use any rare materials; it relied entirely on Usopp's own ingenuity, so it shouldn't have been too difficult.

With the Weather Stick's water vapor ability, Nami can even inflict normal damage on Ground-type Pokémon.

After a brief reorganization, the two, Crimson and Red, continued on their way.

Ahead on Highway 25 is Zheng Hui's research institute.

That is, the strange scientist in the game who fused himself with a Pokémon.

After helping him press the button on the device and freeing him, he gave Crimson two tickets that could be used at will.

In the open space in front of Zheng Hui Research Institute, there was also a charming and alluring older woman.

Her first words to Chi Hong were: "Let me teach you a lesson, little brother~"

The Pokémon she used was a level 18 Machop.

This made it hard for Crimson not to suspect that this seemingly sexually frustrated older sister might have done something unspeakable to the muscular young boy's wrist strength.

After all, in the Pokémon universe, there is no reproductive barrier between Pokémon and humans!

"Nami, Mommy's Electric Shock + Electric Speed ​​Boost! Let's take them down in no time!"

The battle zone appeared, and Crimson quickly issued orders.

Nami's lightning was completely countered by Ground-type Pokémon!

However, it remains an unsolvable problem for Pokémon of other types!

Sizzle!

A dazzling bolt of lightning traversed the void, instantly striking the unavoidable wrist force.

In an instant, the once energetic Wan Li suddenly stiffened.

On its skin surface, a golden arc of electricity would occasionally flash.

It was a complete paralysis effect from being hit by a mama-like electric shock!

Take advantage of his weakness and kill him!

Nami, already familiar with Pokémon battles, didn't hesitate. She wielded the steel rod wrapped in lightning, stepping on sparks with each step, and swiftly arrived in front of Machop, delivering a powerful blow to the head!

"Take this!" Nami shouted.

As the steel rod, brimming with lightning power, struck Shou Li's forehead, the little boy, who could only possibly have driven a large vehicle, stiffened slightly and fell backward.

"My arm strength!"

The older sister rocked her breasts, letting out soft moans.

But this cannot change the already predetermined outcome!

After the battle, Crimson also received a parting gift from her older sister...

A move trainer for the Fighting-type move "Earth Throw"!

[Movement: Earth Throw]

[Attribute: Fighting]

Category: Physics

[Power: Change]

[Description: Launches the opponent high into the air, then uses gravity to slam them into the ground. Damage dealt depends on the user's level.]

"Sends the opponent into the air? So... does this move have some kind of knockback effect?"

After reading the description of the moves, Crimson pondered them in his mind.

He compared the move learning device he had acquired from Earth with the Pokémon list and found that only Luffy could currently learn that move.

"Even without fighting attributes, you can still learn corresponding moves as long as certain conditions are met, right?"

"That's quite similar to the game's mechanics."

Considering that Nami could learn the Normal-type move, Treasure Gathering Technique, Akame nodded in understanding.

Upon seeing Nami approach, he immediately waved the ship ticket in his hand and began to tell her about the upcoming itinerary.

"Let's go, we're heading back to Cerulean City!"

"Sigh... I really don't want to go back to that place of heartbreak." Nami sighed.

Including the time they were driven back by Sandshrew, Nami and her group have crossed Cerulean City three times.

Now, the fourth time is about to begin.

"There's nothing we can do; our next destination requires us to pass through Cerulean City."

Crimson shrugged helplessly.

If he could, he wouldn't want to waste game time traveling.

Ultimately, when the game ended for the day, all they had done was defeat a Team Rocket member in the backyard of a burglarized house in Cerulean City.

And the reward is...

Another move learner appeared in the crimson package—[Dig]!

[Move: Digging]

[Attribute: Ground]

Category: Physics

[Power: 80]

[Description: Quickly digs a burrow large enough to accommodate oneself. While activating the skill, one can move freely underground by continuously consuming stamina and launch surprise attacks on enemies.]

"I really don't know whether to say it was a fruitful experience or a waste of time."

Back in the One Piece world, in Kaya's guest room, Akane looked at the two new move learning devices in his inventory and Nami's sluggish experience bar, a conflicted expression on his face.

However, he soon put all of that out of his mind.

Anyway, they have plenty of time and are not in a hurry.

What's more, today is an important day for them to meet their new partner, the Merry.

Red didn't want to meet this special partner with dark circles under his eyes; he wanted to leave a good impression.

……

……

Silent all night.

Just as the Straw Hat crew finished their day of training and entered the tranquil realm of sleep...

On an uninhabited island near the village of Xiluobu in the Moonlight Islands.

A ship flying a pirate flag with a cat's face and a skull is secretly moored at the edge of the coast.

"Captain Zango, when are we finally going to get there?!"

"It's been three days already, why is there still no news from Captain Crowe!?"

"That's exactly what I mean. If we wait any longer, the supplies on the ship will run out!"

"........."

"........."

On the deck of the pirate ship, a group of pirates, dressed in various cat-related decorations, were making a ruckus, surrounding a man wearing heart-shaped glasses.

The man with heart-shaped glasses is none other than Django, the former vice-captain of the Black Cat Pirates!

Because of Crow's retirement, he, as the first mate, temporarily took over the captain's position for the next three years.

However, the acting captain looked helpless at this moment.

Faced with his subordinates' intense questioning, he could only push his hand away and soothe them, saying:

"Captain Crowe contacted me secretly just three days ago, asking us to wait in the nearby waters. He may still have some preparations to complete."

"Since Captain Crowe hasn't given any new instructions, let's just follow his lead and not disrupt his plans."

"Otherwise... none of us will have a good ending."

However, just as Zango finished speaking, a roar suddenly erupted from the crowd:

"We disagree!"

The crowd quickly parted to the sides, and a tall, thin, short, and fat pair of people holding sharp cat claws slowly walked up to Zango.

It was none other than the cat-man brothers, whose status in the Black Cat Pirates was second only to Django.

The chubby guy in the group, Buchi, said indignantly:

"Captain Zango! That bastard has abandoned us for three years, why should we still obediently follow his orders!?"
