Chapter 14
"That house belongs to the wealthiest family in our town—my good friend Kaya's place. But lately her parents have been seriously ill, so I haven't seen Kaya come out to play in a long time." As Usopp spoke, his mood visibly dropped.
"Oh? Serious illness? I can take a look—I'm a doctor too." Perfect timing—Usopp had just handed me the perfect plot hook.
"Really? That's amazing! Come with me!" Usopp dragged me straight to Kaya's grand front gate.
With Usopp leading, the sheep-headed butler Merry didn't stop us. We met Kaya smoothly. She truly was an exceptional beauty—long golden hair parted in the middle cascading over her shoulders, delicate features always carrying a gentle smile, a faint melancholy between her brows that made one's heart ache.
After Usopp finished introducing me, Kaya's eyes lit up. "Doctor, please—you have to save my parents!"
I was speechless. Are people in the One Piece world this naive? They believe anything?
"Ahem… anyway, let me see the patients first."
Led by Merry and Kaya, we reached her parents' room.
"These two?" I walked to the bedside, pretending to diagnose while using divine sense to scan their bodies.
Sure enough—both were filled with an unknown toxin. Couldn't be unrelated to Kuro.
Pose as a castaway for shelter and trust, secretly poison Kaya's parents, force her to write a will, then kill her—smoothly inherit everything. Truly worthy of "Hundred Plans" Kuro—all schemes and tricks.
Unfortunately, Luffy ruined his plan in canon. Now I'm here to stir things up—bad luck for him.
The poison was easy—Horm-Horm Fruit + divine sense could clear it effortlessly. But such a perfect opportunity… I had to make full use of it.
After "diagnosing," I furrowed my brows dramatically.
"Doctor, how are they? What illness do my parents have?" Kaya asked anxiously.
"To be honest… your parents aren't sick. They've been poisoned with a very powerful rare toxin."
"Ah! How could…?" Kaya's expression darkened further.
"What kind of poison? What antidote do we need? I'll find anything!"
"This poison is called Seven Extremes Scatter—incurable by normal means." Completely made-up name—I didn't even know what the real toxin was, so no real antidote anyway.
"Ah! No… Doctor, please think of something… please save them!" Kaya burst into tears, begging desperately.
"Kaya, don't panic yet. I have a way to force the toxin out. Don't worry." I stroked the hand clutching my arm, comforting her.
"Ah! Then hurry… Doctor, please help my parents. Whatever price you want, I'll pay—anything!" Her parents were clearly her biggest weakness…
I said nothing more. Walked to her mother's side, helped her sit up, placed both palms on her back like in martial arts novels, and used Horm-Horm Fruit's body control to force out the toxin while restoring her health. Five minutes later, her mother spat black blood and coughed awake.
"Mom!" Kaya rushed forward, hugging her mother and crying loudly. Touching mother-daughter reunion scene.
To ruin the mood, I dramatically spat blood and collapsed to the floor.
"Doctor!"
"Doctor!"
The whole room panicked, crowding around me in concern.
I waved weakly. "I'm fine… this poison was stronger than I expected. It's affected my body too. Let me rest. Kaya, stay with your mother."
I sat against the wall, closed my eyes to "recover." Kaya gave me an apologetic look, then focused on her parents.
Not interested in their reunion or the background Usopp/Merry, I pretended to meditate while secretly observing Kuro with divine sense.
Kuro still didn't know the parents were awake—he was calmly drinking afternoon tea.
After a while, they still hadn't finished talking. I got bored and stood up, leaving the room—still acting frail.
That evening, I was invited to dinner at Kaya's house.
In the dining hall, Kaya, her parents, and I had just sat down when Kuro entered. Seeing Kaya's parents, his pupils contracted—then he flashed a hidden venomous look. All caught by my divine sense.
Couldn't hold back anymore? Perfect.
Kuro was deep enough to stay calm—sat down politely, all gentlemanly concern for Kaya's parents.
Through dinner chat, Kuro learned I was the one who healed them. I'd definitely been targeted—now just waiting for his move.
After dinner, Merry led me to a guest room. Divine sense sweep: Kaya reading in her room, no unusual moves from Kuro.
"Kaya, come to the guest room." I transmitted directly to her mind—a new skill: divine sense voice.
"It's me—the doctor from today. I want to talk about payment."
"Doctor? Is that you?" Soon Kaya knocked on my door.
"Yes, come in." I opened for her.
"Doctor, what did you want?"
"Just discussing payment. You haven't forgotten our agreement, right?" I openly admired her in her nightgown.
"I know." Kaya lowered her head, voice small.
"So your life no longer belongs to you. You belong to me now—understand?" I took out a collar identical to Nami's and handed it to her. "Put this on. From today, you're my slave."
"S-Slave? How could…" Kaya never expected those words.
"Yes. You'll obey all my commands from now on. That's part of the deal, isn't it?" I held the collar, staring at her.
"Mmm… I understand." Kaya reluctantly took it and put it around her neck.
The ends fused seamlessly—no trace.
"From now on, you're my property. I even have the right to take your life. Understood?" I snapped my fingers—the collar tightened, choking her.
Kaya panicked, clawing at it desperately—of course, it didn't budge.
I pulled her into my arms, groping her long-desired breasts freely. Choked, she couldn't make a sound.
"Understand your situation now?" After about a minute—when she was sticking out her tongue and eyes rolling back—I released the choke.
Kaya collapsed in my arms, gasping desperately.
"How can you do this…" Surprisingly, her first words after recovering were accusing me.
"Call me Master!" I choked her again. Having tasted suffocation, Kaya struggled in terror.
She tried to beg—mouth open but no sound.
After making her face red and eyes roll again, I released.
"Remember—from now on, call me Master!"
"Mmm…" Kaya sat on the floor, sobbing quietly.
"What? Want to feel it again?" I raised my hand as if to snap again.
"No! No! Master! Master!" Kaya immediately looked up in fear.
Good—fear is step one of training. Very smooth so far.
