Chapter 141 Luffy is kidnapped after entering the Land of WomenThis template's boost to Luffy was absolutely explosive.
Especially the increase in Conqueror's Haki—that is, his spiritual energy and soul strength—was terrifyingly rapid.
After only four days of using it, Luffy felt his Conqueror's Haki level double, and the template's accuracy increased from the initial 10% to 20%.
Furthermore, he developed a fun new ability.
He picked up the hilt of his Zanpakuto and pressed it sharply against his chest.
Whoosh!
Luffy's soul, clad in his Shinigami armor, instantly detached from his physical body.
This was the classic pose of the protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki, when he transforms into a Shinigami!
As everyone knows, Shinigami are pure souls, invisible to the naked eye of ordinary humans.
Luffy, grinning mischievously, floated to Robin's side and slapped her on the shoulder.
Robin, who was reading, jolted awake and whirled around: "Who?!"
She warily scanned her surroundings. Aside from the soldiers dozing on the lookout tower, the deck was deserted; not a soul in sight.
"Could it be that guy with the Clear-Clear Fruit who's chasing after us?" Robin's face paled slightly.
Just as Robin was about to burst into tears, Kalifa emerged from the cabin carrying drinks. The feeling of being watched vanished instantly, and Robin breathed a sigh of relief.
"Luffy!!"
Robin seemed to realize something and exclaimed.
Luffy, who had been slumped on the deck, suddenly sprang to life, dashing to Robin's side and feigning ignorance: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"I just..."
Robin was about to complain when she saw Luffy licking his lips, savoring the moment.
Robin glared at him fiercely, knowing full well that he had awakened some strange new ability.
"I felt something dirty touch me just now. If I catch it, I'll castrate it!"
Robin chuckled, uttering chillingly ruthless words.
Luffy felt a chill run down his spine and coughed twice. "Um, I've had some new insights lately. I'm going to practice my moves in the sea."
With that, Luffy drew his Hyōrinmaru and leaped off the warship.
"Ah!! Vice Admiral Luffy! That's the Calm Belt down there!!"
The marines on the lookout tower cried out in terror.
The words had barely left their lips when the calm sea exploded, and countless colossal Sea Kings, each as large as a mountain, burst forth with gaping maws.
However, Luffy hovered in mid-air, completely unfazed.
"Sit upon the Frosty Heaven! Hyōrinmaru! Bankai! Daigure Hyōrinmaru!!"
In an instant, Luffy transformed into an ice and snow reaper, dancing wildly in the Calm Belt, unleashing a burst of icy energy.
Sea Kings, each large enough to devour a warship, were instantly frozen to the surface, transforming into colossal, crystalline ice sculptures—a truly magnificent sight.
Robin blushed, glaring resentfully at Luffy who was showing off in the air, and spat, "It's so hot! Perfect for cooling down!"
With that, she huffed and puffed as she ran back to the sun lounger, covering her face with a book and pretending to sleep.
The electric shock she'd just experienced had left her feeling incredibly hot, and she blushed like a little girl for the first time in a long time.
Meanwhile, even though Luffy was covered in millennia of ice, his heart was pounding with excitement.
Looking at the mere 25% accuracy of the recreation, Luffy secretly vowed that even if he spent all his achievement points, he would exchange for the real Zanpakuto.
"Wow, this thing is damn useful!"
Just then, the outline of an island appeared on the horizon.
Luffy, flying through the air, narrowed his eyes, his figure flashing, and he flew directly towards Amazon Lily!
...
This is Amazon Lily, a land of women where men are strictly forbidden to set foot.
Here, women, upon reaching adulthood, must join the Kuja Pirates like soldiers, setting sail to steal men to reproduce.
A steep mountain is surrounded by dense primeval jungle.
The words "Kuja" are carved in huge, imposing characters on the cliff face.
A huge cave has been carved into the mountaintop, inside which is a fortress-like city—the land of women.
At this moment, Luffy is squatting in the forest on the island's outskirts, staring blankly at a bunch of colorful mushrooms.
He was seriously considering whether to eat the pile of poisonous mushrooms that would make him "grow mushrooms." After all, if he got poisoned, he might enjoy the ultimate treatment of being watched by all the girls in the village as they pulled out his mushrooms.
Finally, Luffy stood up, dusted himself off, and abandoned this lewd plan.
He was joking, of course. He was destined to become the Empress's man; how could such treatment be worthy of a mere mortal?
Before he could finish his mental exercise, Luffy's eyes widened like saucers.
Margaret and Aphelandora, dressed in wildly sexy animal-skin bikinis, holding longbows, were pointing them at him warily.
"Who are you! Why are you on our island!"
Margaret demanded sharply.
Luffy instantly withdrew his lecherous gaze and adopted the demeanor of a worldly master: "Orewa Luffy, Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters."
However, what greeted him was a sharp arrow wreathed in Haki, piercing through the air.
Luffy grinned, grabbing at the air with one hand.
The arrows were instantly frozen in mid-air by the repulsive force of the Rinnegan, completely still.
"What?!" Margaret paled, firing a rapid-fire barrage of arrows from her longbow, several arrows transforming into black streaks and shooting towards Luffy.
"As expected of Amazonian warriors, their Haki is truly impressive."
Luffy looked at the black arrowheads, secretly admiring them.
Even he had only just begun to grasp the basics of Haki.
These two ordinary warriors before him had clearly mastered this advanced technique.
Luffy raised his hand, a flash of purple light emanating from his Rinnegan: "Shinra Tensei!"
Boom—!
A violent, invisible repulsive force erupted instantly, sending Margaret and Aphelandra flying like kites with broken strings.
Luffy seized the opportunity, using Shunpo to rush forward, intending to be a hero and pull the two women into his arms.
However, reality was harsh.
Aphilandra's gigantic size meant Luffy's embrace was empty.
Just as he wrapped his arms around Margaret's slender waist, Aphilandra's long leg, thicker than Luffy's entire body, slammed into his face.
The three of them tumbled like gourds, crashing through countless trees in their path.
When Luffy finally crawled out of the soft pouch, he looked up.
Good heavens! A huge group of Amazonian warriors in bikinis, wielding bows and arrows, had completely surrounded him, their eyes fierce enough to devour him.
Luffy awkwardly raised his hands in surrender, but was ultimately bound hand and foot by the enraged female warriors, taken back to the village, and locked in a cage.
"Hey? Don't go! Let me explain! I really am a Vice Admiral! I have urgent business with your Empress! I'm a law-abiding citizen!"
Luffy clung to the cage bars, shouting his innocence to the departing warriors.
However, all he received in return were countless eye rolls and a dense mass of long legs.
"Have you heard? This is the legendary man!"
"Excuse me, I want to see too!"
"He moved! Oh my god, he has no breasts at all, just flat."
"Grandma Newt said that men's...things look different from ours."
"A strange, hard creature!"
"His hair is a mess, he's as skinny as a monkey, and he looks frail."
"But I heard he defeated Margaret and Aphelandra in one move, is that true?"
"Aphelandra, what do you say?"
"Huh?" The tall Aphelandra pointed blankly at herself, looking completely bewildered.
Looking at these female warriors who were treating him like a monkey, Luffy scratched his head helplessly.
Suddenly, a green door opened in the air, and Luffy walked in as if he were going home: "See you later, ladies! It's lunchtime, I'm going to eat now."
"Oh my god! That man opened a door in thin air!"
"He ran away! Go after him!"
The women instantly erupted in panic.
"He ran away! Go get the Guardians of the Nation!" Aphelandra shouted frantically.
A nearby person said speechlessly: "Aren't you one?"
"Ah! Right, I'm the Guardian of the Nation!" Aphelandra scratched her head in sudden realization.
Margaret, unable to bear it any longer, grabbed the airhead and ran towards the captain's office.
Meanwhile, Luffy had already used the Door-Door Fruit's power to make his escape.
After Luffy's modifications and development, the Door-Door Fruit now allows for short-distance spatial jumps; he can teleport back to any door he's touched.
With a creak...
