[Chapter Size: 3108 Words.]
Third Person POV
Whisky Peak, First Half of Grandline.
...
...
The woman realized she needed to leave the island immediately in the face of this unequal confrontation. She understood that facing this group would be an impractical task. Internally, she lamented how Crocodile believed he could easily deal with a gang valued at nearly 500 million. Now, this idea seemed more like a suicidal delusion; she needed to escape.
Luffy diverted his attention from Bepo and his companions, noticing the woman starting to move away from the top of a building.
"Planning to leave so easily?" Luffy commented with a smile, his tone filled with confidence and curiosity.
"Luffy?" Nami asked beside him, observing her captain's strange behavior.
"I'm dealing with a stalker," Luffy said and used Soru to move quickly toward Nico Robin.
Nami also followed him, curious to know whom her captain was talking about.
"Hm? What's this?" Robin was surprised as Luffy approached and went on alert, using her Devil Fruit powers while crossing her arms quickly.
"What do we have here..." Luffy said, opening a smile, making Robin cautious. Nami appeared next to Luffy, looking at Robin suspiciously.
"Did you notice me already?" Robin spoke cautiously.
"Of course, I noticed even before that; some eyes were watching me and my girl all the time. I didn't pierce your eyes just because I saw you were a woman, but let me ask you, do you take pleasure in watching others in their intimate moments?"
"WHAT?! She was spying on us! I'll kill her!" Nami shouted angrily, ready to attack the woman.
"It's not like that!" Robin was taken aback by the loss of composure and had to blush at this moment, something unusual for a character like her, but this accusation was too much for the woman to admit—she did watch Luffy and Nami having sex, but would she admit it?
"You probably wanted me to be tired before asking the agents to attack our group. Well, that's understandable, but my two hours of fun didn't make me any weaker, if that's what you wanted... Anyway, I saw your eyes quite satisfied while you couldn't stop looking the whole time we were having sex..." Luffy smiled shamelessly at these words.
"It's not like that!" Robin still tried to deny.
"Well, anyway..." Luffy disappeared before Robin could react, and he handcuffed a Seastone shackle to her wrist.
"Now you're my prisoner," Luffy commented with a mischievous smile on his face near a frightened Nico Robin.
He had to act abruptly because as soon as he did, wind spread across the area, and giant claws formed in the air ready to crush Robin. Luffy knew that if he didn't act first, Nami would kill her.
"Luffy! I'm going to kill this woman!" Nami growled, and Robin was even more terrified.
"Calm down, Nami, she's our prisoner," Luffy warned firmly; he didn't want to hurt Robin.
"Tsk!" Nami growled but canceled her powers to the relief of a frightened Nico Robin, seeing that the other woman really could have killed her.
"See, you angered my navigator a lot; don't do that again." Luffy smiled at Robin with his hand on the shackle on her wrist.
"..." Robin stayed silent but was incredibly scared by all of this, trying to stay calm despite her eyes wavering in front of this man.
"Now let's go back; we need to organize our things before leaving the island..." Luffy said and threw a scared Robin over his shoulder, jumping towards the group with Nami still dissatisfied accompanying him.
Thus, Luffy appeared again to his group who were still celebrating with Robin by his side and a Nami next to Luffy who still wanted to kill the captive.
"Luffy? Who is this?" Yamato asked looking at the woman imprisoned next to Luffy.
"Someone important, but I'll deal with her later; now, restrain all the agents with Sea Stone. Be careful with Mr.2; he can transform into anyone who can touch his face. Make sure he's contained before taking him to the ship's prison," Luffy commented.
"Also, release the islanders; they must be hungry." Luffy added.
"But what if they attack us?" Kuina asked.
"Look at them. No Mister Invincible Bear fan will attack us." Luffy looked at the crowd that was looking at Bepo with stars in their eyes while still celebrating his victory over the agents.
So, the citizens were untied, with them untying their other companions. But they weren't angry with the pirates; now they were celebrating and laughing while preparing food and drinks for everyone as if nothing had happened.
Bepo was embarrassed with the population looking at him with stars in their eyes and great admiration while trying to talk to him.
"Incredible! Give me an autograph, Mister Invincible Bear!" This phrase was used thousands of times already.
"Captain, all the agents that Bepo fought are in prison except for one that Lami is checking!" Hugo commented.
"That's good; now let's deal with the princess of Alabasta," Luffy commented, walking up to Vivi, who was still tied up with her royal guard, Igaram, by her side. They were the only ones still restrained at Luffy's request, as the islanders were now his allies, though they paid little attention, captivated by their new idol.
"So... Princess Vivi, what should I do with you? You even have assassins after you," Luffy remarked with a smile.
"What do you plan, you pirate!" the former Mr. 8, Igaram, growled.
"Nothing much, I want... Hm?" Luffy was interrupted by movement in the dark sky; there were still two Baroque Works agents flying above the island. A vulture and some kind of hamster that Luffy couldn't quite recall or was too far to identify.
"It seems there are a few leftovers... Usopp doesn't have his rifle, so I'll handle them myself," Seeing Usopp still dressed in his wrestling presenter outfit and without long-range weapons other than his pistol, Luffy decided to take action.
Pointing his palm towards the sky, a purple flame grew and concentrated rapidly, grabbing everyone's attention due to its sudden brightness.
*Bang!*
[Moa Moa no Mi: Speed, apply 40 times!]
The flame exploded like a cannon, causing even Vivi to try to cover her ears, unsuccessfully due to her tied hands.
The flame burst from his hand and flew so fast that no one could react.
In an instant, it exploded, and in the next, in a matter of milliseconds, there was an explosion in the sky, killing the Vulture and its partner instantly.
*BOOOM!*
The flash and sound of the explosion would put even Mr. 5 to shame.
"What???!!!!" Vivi and Igaram were shocked and disturbed by this.
"I just got rid of some pests..." Luffy shrugged, unconcerned with the frightened faces of those two.
'Man, this explosion is good, but I want to see how powerful it can be at my full strength...' Luffy mumbled mentally, wanting to understand the maximum capabilities of his destructive power since he hadn't had time to test it yet.
Bepo Mugs:
Custom mugs with Bepo's image in various feats, from the battle against Mr. 2 to relaxed moments. Collectors appreciated these unique pieces that told the story of the little bear.
"Cook with Bepo" Recipe Books:
A compilation of recipes inspired by Bepo's food preferences, featuring exotic dishes and simple homemade recipes. Culinary enthusiasts couldn't resist this thematic book.
Collectible Bepo Trading Cards:
A set of collectible cards with exclusive images of Bepo in various poses and situations. Fans traded and collected these cards, becoming a craze among the young.
The imagination of the island inhabitants flourished, and Bepo's popularity provided a unique opportunity for the creation of an incredible variety of products, further fueling the fever for the invincible bear. Luffy's impact now extended not only to the skies but also to local commerce and culture.
"HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE, HOW CAN THEY CREATE SO MANY THINGS IN SO LITTLE TIME?!" Igaram and Vivi looked at the bizarre landscape, their expressions stunned as they incredulously shouted. In the midst of the chaos, a group of inhabitants passed by wearing Bepo hats, laughing and exchanging collectible cards.
"Hahahaha. Look, Whisky Peak belongs to the Straw Hat Pirates right now!" Luffy smiled satisfied, enjoying the chaos he had inadvertently unleashed.
"And what do you plan for this place?" Igaram asked in defeat, realizing he couldn't do anything to contain the wave of enthusiasm for Bepo.
Luffy, always relaxed, replied, "Great that you asked. Here are papers I had prepared in advance!" Suddenly, he enlarged papers that were magically stored in his pockets. They were meticulous plans he had been writing throughout his journey to the island.
"What... let's see... WHAT?! YOU ALREADY PLANNED ALL OF THIS?!" Igaram shouted surprised and stunned as Luffy spread the documents on a nearby table. They were detailed plans for the village's restructuring, new exclusive alcoholic beverages, trade agreements with East Blue countries, and even suggestions for new Bepo-themed festivals.
"What? I'm the man who will dominate the seas. I need to plan my territories," Luffy said with a mischievous smile, leaving both Igaram and Vivi stunned by the unexpected revelation of his long-term vision for Whisky Peak.
Vivi, while flipping through some of the documents, sighed in surprise. "Luffy, you really thought of everything, even these strange alcoholic drinks?"
"Of course! I said I would dominate the seas, and throwing epic parties is part of that," replied Luffy, causing Igaram, Vivi, and even some onlookers to fall to the ground with this man.
"With that, we're done here, Vivi, get ready to set sail with us. We'll stay a bit longer before leaving the island in the early morning."
Luffy walked a bit before Hugo appeared with an animal in his hands.
"Hey, captain! I found a duck, look! Let's eat it!" Hugo appeared carrying a huge duck; its feathers were slightly ruffled, and its eyes blinked nervously.
"Look, it seems pretty tasty. Ask Reiju to cook it." Luffy smiled, knowing whose duck it was.
"KAAA!" The duck emitted a trembling sound; its little eyes blinked rapidly as it tried to understand the situation, its wings trembling with fear.
"WAIT, THIS IS KAROO, MY PARTNER, DON'T KILL HIM!" Vivi quickly panicked, her eyes widened as she ran towards the duck.
Karoo had been hiding with all the confusion happening on the island. When he finally went after his owner, Vivi, Hugo found him and quickly picked him up with gentle hands. However, the duck remained tense, emitting scared "KAAA" sounds in response to the bewildering situation.
"Hahahaha. Alright, I let go. Vivi, you can bring him along too." Luffy spoke, laughing, his smile showing understanding.
Hugo released the duck, which immediately ran into Vivi's arms, seeking comfort. Vivi affectionately stroked his feathers to calm him, while the crew laughed at the unusual situation. Poor Karoo, now safe and comforted, looked around with curious eyes and a hint of suspicion.
"Luffy, there was a casualty. Lami just confirmed it." Zoro appeared and delivered unexpected news to Luffy.
"Mr.5? That's unexpected, but okay." Mr.5 was dead after Bepo's attack.
"Well, that's good anyway. I want his Devil Fruit, but I didn't want to kill an unarmed guy like him after the fight, especially someone who never harmed me..." Luffy commented; he literally took the attempt of attack from this group as a joke. He didn't put Mr.5 on the same level as Sterry or that Tenryuubito with various titles.
"Anyway... 750 million? Fine." Luffy opened the store and immediately bought the fruit.
"Nojiko!" With the fruit in his hands shaped like a bomb, Luffy caught the attention of a crewmate.
"Luffy?" The short-haired girl with blue hair was surprised to see Luffy showing the strange fruit her way.
"This is the bomb fruit from the late Mr.5; now it's yours. I'm sure you'll become extremely powerful with it." Luffy said, and Nojiko took it, still stunned.
"This... Can I become stronger?" Nojiko murmured. She knew she was one of the weakest in the group, despite learning some techniques from the six styles. With the group, her strength was still far behind.
"I'll eat this if I can help Luffy and my sister in the best way!" She said, biting and spitting out the fruit at that moment.
"That's good; we'll train your abilities as we progress on our journey." Luffy nodded, pleased with her newly acquired power.
"Now, listen, everyone! Let's continue the party!" Luffy announced, and everyone celebrated this time with the island people, who were no longer enemies at this moment.
