Chapter 114 - Toward the Whisky Peak
While we were still caught up in the moment, talking about the Rumbar Pirates, I noticed the two captives—Mr. 9 and Vivi—watching everything unfold. They had been trying to kill Laboon earlier, yet now they slowly dropped to their knees in front of us.
"Why are you two kneeling?"
"Our Log Pose is broken. Please... give us passage to Whiskey Peak." Vivi said in small and pleading voice. In fact her voice was so pleading that I wanted to bully her.
"Whiskey Peak?"
"Please! Help us!"
I glanced around. "Do you not have a ship?"
"Our ship was destroyed," Vivi explained. "We have no other way to get home."
"And how exactly is that our problem?" Kuina shot back in her icy tone as she clearly do not like them.
The pair flinched visibly as they heard such cold tone.
"You should have thought about that before you tried to kill Laboon," Nami added while crossing her arms.
I could almost hear Mr. 9's unspoken retort in his head: 'Can you stop treating a whale like a person? How many fish have you eaten in your life? Isn't a whale just a big fish too?'
But he wisely kept his mouth shut. He didn't want to ruin his one shot at getting out of here.
I studied them for a moment. "Yes, we have a Log Pose and enough space on the ship to take a couple of extra people."
Vivi and Mr. 9 perked up immediately. There was a excitement flashing across their faces.
"What are you two getting so excited about?" Kuina said while glaring at them. "We didn't say we'd actually take you."
I stepped forward. "Just who are you two, anyway? And what exactly do you do?" I knew who they were but I just wanted to fulfill the formality.
Mr. 9 cleared his throat. "I'm sorry, but we really can't tell you our real identities. You can call us by our code names. I am Mr. 9, and this is Miss Wednesday."
Crocus snorted. "You shouldn't trust them. These people are scum who hunts innocent whale."
The rest of the crew immediately piled on with criticism. Mr. 9 and Vivi shrank under the barrage of words, looking more desperate by the second. They clearly realized no one was going to let them board.
Then I spoke up. "Okay. We'll take you."
I glanced at Lily. She met my eyes and nodded firmly.
"I agree too."
The other girls didn't protest—though Kuina frowned deeply, staring at Vivi's sexy body. I could practically read her thoughts. It was as if she was thinking…
'Does he want her too? He is such a womanizer. All his decisions come straight from the part between his legs.'
"Alright!" I called out. "Pack it up, everyone. Time to sail."
The crew sprang into action, gathering plates, cups, and leftovers before hauling everything back onto the ship. We started boarding one by one.
Crocus turned to Kaya and disappeared briefly into the lighthouse. He returned carrying a stack of old books.
"These contain my notes and all my knowledge on medicine. Take them. Improve your skills. It's the least I can do after what you did for Laboon."
Kaya accepted them with a grateful smile. "Thank you, teacher Crocus."
"You take care of yourself, Crocus-san," I said, stepping forward to shake his hand firmly.
Nami appeared at the railing.
"We're all set! Ready to set sail whenever you are."
As everyone climbed aboard, I caught Vivi's eye and gave her a small smile.
'Will I finally meet Nico Robin at Whiskey Peak? I'm looking forward to meet my favorite girl.'
The thought sent a quiet thrill through me. I couldn't wait to fuck her as I had quite a lot of cosplay ideas I wanted to try with her.
As for Vivi, for now, though, I had no intention of making any moves. There would be time for that later after I save her kingdom. That time I could play hero saving princess. And as far as I know there was Queen of Alabasta. So, it would be hero saving princess and queen.
'I am going to exhale of a favor from both mother and daughter.'

[Scene Change]
It had been a few days since we left Reverse Mountain and Twin Capes behind. Our journey along the Grand Line had truly begun, and right now we were sailing through surprisingly calm waters. But there were some rough waves along the way.
'The weather of the Grand Line is quite unpredictable.'
I had recently pushed my Armament Haki and Observation Haki to an advanced level, which meant I was more than capable of teaching the others about the true nature of Haki.
At the moment I was training with Kuina, helping her improve both her swordsmanship and her control over Haki. She was focused and determined as she was swinging her blade with growing precision. She was truly improving in lightning speed.
Nami was standing at the helm. She was carefully observing the weather patterns and making sure our course stayed right at our destination. She never let her guard down when it came to navigation.
Kaya had shut herself away in her room, happily buried in the medical notes Crocus had given her before we departed. She seemed genuinely excited to deepen her knowledge of medicine, flipping through pages with quiet enthusiasm.
Then there was Lily. She was lounging on deck in a chair, sunbathing despite the rough weather. She was completely relaxed and half-asleep.
I had tried to pull her into training with Kuina earlier—I wanted her to at least master basic Armament Haki before we faced Crocodile—but she was far too lazy. After just a few minutes she started dozing off, so I gave up on her and let her rest.
'She is the protagonist of the world. So she would be fine.'
As for our two "guests," Mr. 9 and Vivi, I had put them both to work. They were currently cleaning the ship and preparing food for the crew.
At first they had hoped for a free, effortless ride to their destination, but I quickly made it clear that nothing in this world comes without a price. They weren't guests; they were prisoners.
Still, I treated Vivi with far more kindness than Mr.9.
I made sure she felt comfortable around the other girls, gave her a private room of her own, and always provided her with high-quality food. Her chores were simple—things like cutting vegetables in the kitchen—nothing too demanding.
Mr. 9, on the other hand, received no such leniency. He handled all the heavy labor and the dirtiest kitchen tasks.
I fed him well enough, but he slept outside in a hammock instead of in a proper room. Honestly, I couldn't care less about his comfort. If it weren't for Vivi, I would have tossed him overboard without a second thought.
After finishing the training session with Kuina, I headed to the kitchen and prepared some fresh juice. I poured two glasses. One for me and one for Vivi.
I walked over and handed it to her. "Soon we'll reach Whiskey Peak. You'll be able to reunite with your other friends there."
"Alex… thank you," she said softly, offering a warm smile before taking a sip. The drink seemed to spread gentle warmth through her body.
I wasn't making any direct moves on her yet, but that didn't mean I was staying passive.
I had already been using my Sex Pheromones skill around her constantly, letting my lewd scent fill the air she breathed.
On top of that, whenever I got close, I activated Hand of Incubus. Just now, as I passed her the glass and our fingers brushed, I triggered the skill again.
She flinched slightly—the sudden rush of pleasure had clearly traveled from her hand straight down to her pussy.
Combined with the pheromones, her body was heating up, her arousal building nonstop. Right now she was shifting her legs restlessly, pressing her thighs together in obvious hungry for some action.
If I hadn't been standing there, I was certain she would have slipped a hand between her legs and masturbated on the spot.
In this lewd world of One Piece, women were naturally in heat far more often than not. Add my skills on top of that, and Vivi was on the edge of being crazy whore.
I had no doubt that once we reached Whiskey Peak, she would lock herself in a room and spend days masturbating like a bitch in heat.
The thought alone made my dick harden painfully. For a moment I considered taking her right then and there. But I held back. There were other girls on board who could satisfy me just as well.
I scanned the deck, looking for the best option.
Kuina was still training with fierce concentration; interrupting her would only annoy her.
The sea weather conditions weren't ideal, so I couldn't pull Nami away from her navigation duties.
Convincing Lily would be too much effort—I'd practically have to bribe her with food.
That left Kaya as the easiest choice.
She was alone in her study room, quietly reading through Crocus's medical notes. She had always been weak to sweet words and gentle affection. If I went to her now and whispered loving praise in her ear, I knew I could have her spreading her legs for me in few minutes.
I quickly made the decision and I headed toward Kaya's room.
I was so caught up in my lust that I didn't even notice Vivi watching me leave—her eyes dark and hungry, like a starved whore desperate to be fucked.
