One Piece: Starting with Coercing and Enticing Nami

Consciousness is touched, and perception resonates.

The power within the body began to gradually activate and awaken.

Armament Haki (Beginner Level 1/10)

Suddenly, Thoth opened his eyes, and a light screen panel appeared before him. "It just appeared naturally."

As all things breathe, Thoth sensed within his own body that, with the continuous refinement of his will, his essence, energy, and spirit surged and boiled within him, gradually refining a wondrous energy from his own lifeblood.

Hidden within the cells of the body, willpower and belief unite them, breaking through the illusory and intangible to reflect reality.

I sensed this strange power, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, continuously condensing from the depths of my body.

It's like the sublimation of one's spirit and energy.

The body becomes more active.

The panel light screen turned off, and Thoth glanced down at Dragu, who seemed resigned to his fate, slumped motionless a few meters away under the fence.

A gentle sea breeze caressed his face, and a smile gradually appeared on Thoth's face as he sensed that although the Armament Haki within his body had condensed, it was obscure and difficult to mobilize.

Thoth was not anxious. The seed had already appeared, and as long as he carefully nurtured it, it would grow into a towering tree.

"Lord Thoth, we've arrived at the deserted island."

At this moment, Zango jogged over from the bow and nervously approached Tote.

Tote nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

Upon hearing this, Zango was taken aback and waved his hands repeatedly, seemingly flattered.

"No...no trouble at all, it's all my duty."

Thoth glanced at him, went to the bow of the ship, and looked at a deserted island covered with dense forest that appeared a few hundred meters away.

Before long, the Wavebreaker came to a steady stop at a shore, and Zango, along with Nami, Carina, and Johnny, went to collect his treasure.

Joseph, carrying Dragu, followed Thoth and Nojiko to the island's shore.

After removing the sea stone shackles from the latter's body, and after a dozen or so breaths, Dragu slowly stood up.

Although he looked weak due to his severed arm, the vigorous vitality brought by his Zoan-type ability made him seem capable of fighting.

"what do you mean?"

Dragul looked puzzled, while Thoth calmly moved his joints. "Use your Armament Haki, let me experience it."

Dragu's eyes narrowed with sneer: "You think I'd help someone like you, my mortal enemy?"

Thoth raised his right hand, sensing the Armament Haki within his body. He slowly lifted his hand, and wisps of invisible power, obscure yet swirling around his palm, gazing calmly at him with a slight tilt of his head.

Is it difficult?

An invisible aura of dominance lingered, though it was still immature, it was undeniably present, and a look of astonishment and disbelief appeared in Drago's eyes.

Suddenly, he flew into a rage:

"You damn bastard, you're playing me?"

Dragu roared and instantly entered his beast form. He stomped his feet on the ground and charged forward as a blur.

While speeding along, his right arm suddenly swung several times, the air buzzing as several vacuum slashes shot towards him.

A red light flashed in Thoth's eyes, and he charged forward in the blink of an eye, his fists radiating an aura of dominance.

The combined power and force of the attack resonated and coalesced. Thoth did not dodge, but instead charged forward. Clang! Clang clang clang! Lightning-fast punches, imbued with the power of the air, unleashed several blows in an instant.

The vacuum slashes were shattered one by one the moment they made contact.

In the blink of an eye, the two collided with a loud crash.

Fists collided violently with each other.

The air roared at the point of his fist. Drago's eyes widened in disbelief; his fierce attack had been so easily blocked.

Thoth's aura surged, and the domineering and fierce power of his weapon condensed in his fist.

As the power within his body erupted, Drago's expression changed drastically in that instant, feeling that the guy in front of him had become even more terrifying.

A burst of brute force sent him flying backward in an instant.

The Dragoon roared furiously in mid-air:

"You damned bastard, if you hadn't cut off my arm, did you really think you could have beaten me?"

As soon as Dragu landed, Thoth's figure quickly approached, his fist transforming into a palm strike, and his aura becoming increasingly domineering and sharp.

He even condensed a sharp edge at his fingertips, and in an instant, his arms slashed repeatedly, producing a series of elusive yet powerful strikes.

Dragu's obstruction was difficult.

He tried to retreat, but Thoth stuck to him tightly, his fingertips slashing deep bloody gashes into his right arm, face, and chest.

Dragu roared in fury, but what he got in return was an even more ferocious attack from Thoth.

A few breaths later, Tot suddenly kicked out hard in the abdomen, and Dragu spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backward like an arrow.

It rolled several times on the ground before collapsing heavily to the ground, groaning and gasping for breath.

“Five ribs broken,” Thoth said calmly, looking at him. Then he turned to look at Nokiko, whose eyes were wide open fifty meters away, and smiled slightly.

"A powerful creature of this caliber is a rare sight in the East China Sea. Shall we give it a try?"

Nojiko's eyes lit up, and with a swift movement, he arrived in front of Thoth, his eyes gleaming with eager anticipation.

"May I?"

Tot nodded: "Give it a try."

Dragu struggled to his feet, his eyes blazing with fury upon hearing Thoth's words: "You damn bastard, are you trying to humiliate me?"

Thoth's gaze remained calm: "Your value is reduced to this. If you're not happy, then commit suicide?"

Drago's face was contorted with rage, yet he did not commit suicide. A mocking glint appeared in Thoth's eyes, and then he turned his head to signal Nojiko.

The girl took a deep breath, slowly raised her arms and clenched her fists. The super smooth material gave her arms a unique feel, and suddenly she pushed off the ground with her feet, her figure shooting out.

When Dragu saw this, a sinister smile suddenly appeared on his lips. He wanted to kill this woman who deserved to be fucked, and he wanted to make that bastard Thoth regret it for the rest of his life.

Despite his internal injuries, he charged out in an instant.

Dragu rushed in front of Nojiko, his right fist lashing out in an instant, the air whistling. Nojiko's eyes narrowed, and she raised her left arm to block his fist, sliding it away with a whoosh. However, at the same time, a dull pain shot through her, and she frowned.

Is this the power of Armament Haki that Thoth was talking about?

However, at this moment, she suddenly threw out her right fist, gathering airflow at the tip of her fist, and unleashed a powerful punch that struck Dragu's face in an instant.

The latter coughed up blood from his nose, let out a muffled groan and scream, and staggered backward.

Nojiko seized the opportunity, charged in close, and unleashed a series of smooth, heavy blows that sent Drago trembling. He finished with a powerful kick, sending Drago flying.

Nojiko blinked, looked at the latter lying motionless on the ground, and pouted:

"What a useless guy. I haven't even warmed up yet! No wonder my Tote looks down on you from the bottom of his heart."

Shrimp and pork heart!

075. A wanted notice from the underworld!

Frustrated and depressed.

Damn it, another ability user.

He couldn't think of any other reason besides the power of a Devil Fruit that made him feel completely powerless.

Thoth looked at him lying on the ground, then turned to Joseph on the other side and called out to him:

"Why don't you give him a try?"

Joseph's eyes widened in surprise, then he swiftly ran over, giving Dragu a cold laugh:

"Stop playing dead. My brother Tote said he wanted me to test your strength, which means you still have the ability to fight."

As he spoke, his arms instantly turned into a black, high-strength alloy, and then became incandescent red-hot.

Dragu grew increasingly angry; these days, it seemed like just any Tom, Dick, or Harry could bully him.

He suddenly stood up, Armament Haki wrapped around his right fist, his eyes filled with extreme grief and anger, and in the blink of an eye he rushed in front of Joseph, smashing a punch into his chest with unstoppable force.

clang!!!

A piercing metallic clang resounded throughout.

Joseph was sent flying by the punch, rolling around on the ground.

A few seconds later, he got up from the ground, his face flushed, gagged, and felt a dull, stabbing pain in his chest.

His Steel Fruit passively grants his body a steel-like strength. When he actively uses his ability, he can transform that area into a high-strength, iron-black alloy with flesh-like properties, giving it an extreme hardness almost comparable to diamond.

So now, even though he was knocked away, he wasn't seriously injured, but he definitely lost face.

Still in front of Brother Toth.

With a roar, he charged furiously at Dragu, and once close, he fought him with a completely reckless attitude.

They were driven back time and time again, but they charged forward again and again.

After taking several punches himself, Dragu's eyes widened in disbelief.

Twenty minutes later, Johnny and his men arrived with a bag of treasure. When Thoth saw this, he called out to Johnny and told him to go and relieve Joseph.

Immediately afterwards, the half-beast Johnny launched an even more ferocious attack, using Drago as his whetstone.

Thoth watched calmly, then, noticing Joseph's still sullen expression beside him, he couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"The opponent is not weak. If the opponent is not seriously injured, even if you are an ability user, you will not be able to defeat the opponent."

We must recognize our shortcomings and work harder to become stronger in the future.

Joseph nodded emphatically upon hearing this.

Moments later, Drago's furious roar, echoing through the sky after suffering another heavy blow, was followed by Thoth seeing Drago being slashed down by Johnny's twin swords.

After he fell to the ground, he never got up again.

The mental and ideological defenses were completely breached.
