"Since you know that Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, is the mastermind behind everything that's happened in your kingdom, I suppose you must know where his lair is, right?" Rody said slowly, narrowing his eyes at Vivi.
Seeing this, Vivi nodded frantically, clearly intimidated by Rody's gaze.
"Good, now that you know, take me there," Rody said calmly and indifferently, as if he didn't care at all that Crocodile was one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
…
At Rody's words, Vivi's eyes widened in surprise. She stammered and asked to confirm she hadn't misheard: "Mr. Rody, although you are very powerful, your opponent is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, a great pirate under the command of the World Government. Are you sure you can defeat him?"
Rody didn't answer. Instead, the first to speak was Bee, Rody's number one sycophant. "Hahaha, don't worry. Although I don't know the power of the so-called Seven Warriors of the Sea, it's certainly not as strong as our captain. Isn't it enough to remember what happened before?" Bumblebee said confidently.
Vivi nodded mechanically, surveying the ruins around her and recalling how the beasts Rody had summoned had devastated Whisky Peak, leaving no survivors, even without her intervention. Furthermore, there was Rody's personal strength, which was undeniably terrifying. Moving at speeds invisible to the human eye and sending someone flying hundreds of meters with a single blow shouldn't be possible for just anyone, right?
Thinking of this, Vivi's eyes shone with hope, and she gazed longingly at Rody. Nami, with her keen feminine intuition, could see the glimmer of hope in Vivi's pupils. Seeing this was like a lightbulb going off above Nami's head; her eyes transformed into the Dance sign.
"Vivi is a princess, right? She must have a lot of money, doesn't she?" Nami thought excitedly as she began to speak.
"Princess Vivi, I see you're expecting something from my Rody, aren't you?" "You want my Rody to help you deal with the mastermind behind the civil unrest in your country, right?" Nami asked, letting all her greed show without restraint.
...
Seeing Nami's greedy attitude and tone, Rody didn't know what to say. Was Nami trying to sell him out? He shook his head to himself and stopped paying attention to Nami's movements. After all, he was planning to go to Alabasta after his pets; getting some money from Vivi to satisfy Nami's greed wouldn't be so bad.
Hearing this, Vivi looked at Rody fearfully. Seeing that he didn't resist, he nodded timidly. Seeing this, Nami narrowed her eyes like a greedy kitten and said:
"If "That's right, they'll have to pay us 20 billion Baileys for my Rody to perform!" Nami looked at Vivi eagerly, the glint of money in her eyes intense.
"2... 20 billion Baileys? That's too much!" Vivi exclaimed, staring at Nami, her eyes wide with surprise.
"It's not much, it's not much. Your Arabasta is a very large country," Nami replied with a smile.
After hearing Nami's words, Vivi remained thoughtful.
Alabasta is considered a superpower on the Grand Line. Even in the New World, there are very few countries like Arabasta. Its capital, Alubarna, boasts a standing army of 60,000 soldiers. Sure, but even so, 20 billion Baileys is no small sum. It's not an amount that can be easily obtained, even in normal times, and even less so now that the country is embroiled in a civil war. "Of course, if the Family If Real set his mind to it, this amount could be obtained in no time.
Vivi gritted her teeth and, inwardly, had already agreed, but before doing so, she glanced back at Rody to gauge his attitude, as she knew perfectly well who had the final say in the group. However, the more she looked at him, the more she realized that Rody still didn't care, so in the end, she nodded, though she still wanted to try to negotiate a lower price.
Rody was too lazy for such nonsense and asked Vivi to negotiate and speak with Nami. Finally, after some negotiations, Vivi managed to get Nami, albeit reluctantly, to lower the price, accepting a final price of 15 billion Baileys.
Finally, a verbal contract was drawn up that read:
"If Rody defeats Crocodile and quells the kingdom's internal rebellion, Arabasta will have to pay him and the others 15 billion beli as a reward."After confirming the price, Vivi looked at Rody hopefully.
"Tsk, tsk! Stop looking at me or I'll gouge your eyes out," Rody said menacingly, feeling Vivi's burning, yearning gaze again, causing Vivi to back away in fear, afraid that Rody would carry out his threat.
"Rody, if you defeat Crocodile, we'll have 15 billion beli. You have to beat that guy senseless, darling!" Nami exclaimed, kissing Rody enthusiastically. Inside, she was overflowing with joy; After all, 15 billion beli was an exorbitant sum of money she had never dared to imagine having in her hands.
But after getting excited for a while, Nami regained her composure and asked worriedly, "But the Seven Warlords of the Sea are pirates under the command of the World Government. Will you be in any danger?" "If there is, I can back out of the deal, Rody," Nami said, looking at him with concern. Although she was ambitious and loved money, in her heart Rody was more important. She wouldn't allow him to be jeopardized for a few million Baileys.
Vivi looked at Rody nervously, fearing he would break his word.
Rody smiled indifferently and playfully slapped Nami's rear end without anyone noticing. Feeling Rody's touch on her aroused buttocks, she blushed furiously and punched him in the chest.
"Don't worry, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, except for two, are all just a bunch of trash," Rody replied indifferently, exuding an aura of confidence that greatly pleased Nami. She instantly forgot about Rody's dishonest hand and gave him an affectionate kiss on the cheek.
"Hehehe. As always, my Rody is the strongest!"
Seeing this, Vivi, who was watching from the ground, felt a pang of pain in her heart. She longed for someone she could trust, like the girl in front of her.
Vivi shook her head to herself and didn't dwell on it; the kingdom was the most important thing. "I hope this transaction saves the country!" she thought with hope and anticipation.
Casino Rain Dinners, Arabasta.
In a spacious and luxurious room, a man with a gold-plated pirate hook and a horizontal scar across his face smoked a cigar and silently watched a crocodile swim in a large pool of water.
STEP
STEP
STEP
At that moment, footsteps pulled him from his thoughts. A tall, attractive woman with fair skin, dressed in a corset skirt, approached the man who was calmly smoking his cigar and said:
"Miss Merry Christmas has just received information about Mr. 13. It concerns Rody the Killer, for whom a reward of 50 million Bailey is offered."
Crocodile, after thinking for a moment and remembering who Rody the Killer was, nodded slightly, indicating to the woman that she should continue.
"Mr. 13 and Mrs. Friday escaped him upon arriving at Whisky Peak, having somehow ended up boarding his ship." According to the information and images you sent, Rody the Killer massacred and completely destroyed Whisky Peak, leaving no one alive. The place was razed to the ground, and all the inhabitants of Whisky Peak were mercilessly slaughtered.
...
After a brief pause, the woman continued:
"Furthermore, according to the information, he has made a deal with the Princess of Arabasta. In exchange for Arabasta paying 15 billion Baileys, he will eliminate you, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."
That's right, this man who chain-smoked cigars is Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Crocodile picked up the information from his desk, looked at the photo of Rody slicing Mr. 7 and those strange beasts into cubes, sowing destruction in Whisky Peak, killing indiscriminately, leaving no one alive, and frowned. "This guy is truly ruthless and cruel." "The one who died at his hands was incredibly unlucky."
After remaining silent for a few minutes, Crocodile burst into laughter and said, "Haha... Arrogant rookie, 15 billion for me?... You think you can pull it off?... If so, I'll be waiting for you here. Don't let me down, brat!"
After saying this, the photo of Rody in his hands began to turn into sand, scattering across the ground. It was obvious that Crocodile didn't take Rody seriously; in his eyes, this guy was just another rookie looking for fame.
NIGHT
PLAP
PLAP
PLAP
In the pitch-black room, the sounds of flesh slapping against flesh and a woman's moans filled the air.
"Oghhmmm, Rody... a... a little... slower," Nami moaned softly, biting the pillow.
Rody ignored her and continued thrusting his cock hard into Nami's dripping vagina. At that moment, Rody was completely intoxicated by Nami's curvaceous body. He didn't know how much time had passed outside; he had only been focused on fucking Nami mercilessly.
Rody grabbed Nami's orange hair, which had begun to grow, increasingly resembling the style of the Nami from the time skip, and continued pounding her deeply.
PAH
PAH
PAH
"Mmmgmmm...Rody...Rody!!!!"
With a final low grunt, Rody plunged his cock deep into Nami's cunt and ejaculated a large amount of semen into her womb.
"Ugh, that feels so good!" Rody murmured as he savored the sensation of filling Nami's vagina for the fourth time, all the while kissing her slender, smooth neck.
A FEW MINUTES LATER
Nami lay on Rody's chest, breathing heavily; today's exertion had obviously been more intense than usual.
"Ugh... Rody, if this keeps up, I'm afraid I won't be able to take it," Nami managed to say, her tone laced with dissatisfaction.
...
Rody didn't know what to say, so he simply kissed Nami's forehead and savored the sensation of those two large breasts resting against his chest.
...
Watching Nami sleep, Rody, still unsatisfied, sighed and closed his eyes to drift off to sleep.
"Maybe I should attack that girl Vivi," Rody thought before falling into a deep sleep.
SOME TIME LATER
Small snowflakes drifted from the sky. Rody sat on his deck chair at the bow of the ship, sipping a cup of hot tea, while watching Bumblebee boast.
Bumblebee kept bragging about his experiences to Karoo, Vivi's pet and mount, and Miss Monday, the stout woman who pretended to be a nun at Baroque Works.
Miss Monday swigged from a bottle of liquor, completely unfazed by the bragging of that strange robotic humanoid creature. Karoo was no better; she responded to Bumblebee with a blank stare, tilting her head, as if she didn't understand a word he was saying.
Rody yawned lazily and stopped paying attention to the two. Instead, he leaned back on the deck chair and gazed at the cold sky. In the end, he decided not to kill Miss Monday, the nun, but to take her with him to Arabasta. The reason was simply that he didn't feel like killing her.
As for Karoo, this cute and funny little duck arrived at Whisky Peak with Vivi when she infiltrated Baroque Works. Karoo grew up with Vivi since childhood and understands what she says; he can also understand human language. While he understands human speech, the problem is that everything Bumblebee says is incomprehensible to him, so this cute and funny little duck doesn't understand him at all. Getting back to the point, Karoo is not only Vivi's mount but also her childhood companion, so Vivi naturally brought him along when she boarded the ship.
Before leaving Whisky Peak, Vivi allowed Igaram to take a boat alone and sail swiftly to Arabasta to inform his father, King Cobra, that the mastermind behind the dancing dust incident and the civil war in the kingdom was Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
She also wrote him a letter informing him of the deal she had made with Rody, so he would be prepared to pay.
Finally, she informed her father that both she and Karoo would be returning to Arabasta with Rody and his crew.
Today marks five days since they set sail from Whisky Peak for Arabasta. While there is currently civil unrest in Arabasta, the situation is not as desperate or urgent as in the original story, so Vivi, though concerned for Arabasta, has no intention of rushing back. After all, the situation, though tense, hadn't escalated into armed conflict, so there was no need to rush. Besides, Crocodile's objective was to seize the country, not destroy it, so there was no intention of hurrying.
Upon learning all this, Rody and the others didn't sail at full speed toward Alabasta, but maintained a normal sailing speed.
As Rody reviewed what had happened, an old voice pulled him from his thoughts.
"Sir Rody, the Winter Island you see ahead of us is Drum Island. We're about to arrive!" Sebas Tian informed Rody, who was taking a sip of steaming black tea.
