"Furthermore…"
Reyno's tone gradually softened as he looked towards the crowd, smiling slightly: "When I came to the Giant, besides Loki, I also want you."
Everyone followed his gaze, which was directed at the Giant beauty, Gerd.
"I… I refuse."
Gerd' pupils constricted, and she shook her head like a rattle drum.
She timidly shuffled backward, hiding behind Brogy and Dorry.
'Do you think everyone wants to follow you?'
Gerd secretly observed Reyno through a gap, muttering to herself.
She didn't want to leave the New Giant Warrior Pirates.
"This…"
Upon hearing Reyno's request, everyone's expressions immediately became strange.
A person's reputation precedes them.
They had long heard that Reyno was excessively lustful.
Now it seemed, it was indeed true.
"Hahahahaha Reyno, you have good taste!!"
Gaban, however, grinned indifferently and burst into laughter.
One should know that his wife, Rippley, was also an iconic beauty among the Giant.
"Ah, Yamashiki!!"
Gerd glared fiercely at Gaban.
"Gerd, are you willing…"
"I'm not willing."
Before Hajrudin could finish speaking, Gerd shook her head repeatedly, refusing very decisively.
Her answer made Hajrudin nod with relief.
With the previous deterrence, he dared not openly contradict Reyno now.
But if Gerd was unwilling, even Reyno couldn't force her.
"What if I force it?"
Reyno stared at Gerd, who was hidden behind the crowd, with a half-smile.
The women he wanted, he had never failed to get.
"Reyno, do you intend to be an enemy of the entire Giant??"
The shipwright, Stansen, stepped forward, blocking Gerd without showing any weakness.
As members of the Giant, no matter how powerful the enemy, they would not yield.
"Reyno, this…"
Brogy and Dorry exchanged glances, both showing troubled expressions. "993."
Reyno remained calm, confidently saying: "Gerd, don't be so quick to refuse me."
"Now that the Giant has been targeted by the World Government, and Shamrock died here, they will absolutely not let this go."
"As long as you're willing to leave with me, I can protect the Giant."
"Reyno, what do you take us of the Giant for??"
At these words, Hajrudin's face darkened again.
As Giant warriors, they carried the honor of the Giant.
What fear did they have of powerful enemies?
Reyno glanced at him indifferently, scoffing:
"Hajrudin, I know you're not afraid of the World Government, but do you really have the ability to fight them??"
"I advise you to best face reality."
In the original work, a mere handful of God's Knights members caused heavy losses to the Giant.
If not for Gaban and the protagonist's Pirate Crew being present, Elbaf would probably have changed hands.
"What Reyno said is true."
Just then, Gaban timely provided an assist.
Of course, this was also his true inner thought.
"Fourteen years ago, the World Government wanted to lay claim to Elbaf, and now they've sent people to recruit Loki."
"The Giant's situation is indeed very bad."
Back when he was with the Roger Pirates, he had dealt with the God's Knights.
Gaban knew how terrifying they were.
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Even Hajrudin uncharacteristically didn't refute.
Seeing this, Gerd, who was hiding behind the two Captains, immediately crumpled her pretty face.
'Damn Reyno, isn't this putting me on a spit to roast?'
She grumbled in her heart.
"Ahem, Gerd, this matter is indeed beneficial to the Giant and not harmful."
"Besides, Reno is so strong, why don't you consider it properly?"
Dorry lightly coughed twice and suggested in a low voice.
"Captain Dorry!!!"
Gerd's face darkened, and her tone suddenly rose an octave.
"Of course, of course!"
Dorry then changed the subject and quickly added, "If you're unwilling, no one can force you."
He patted his chest and guaranteed.
"Gerd, think about it carefully."
Reno unhurriedly took out a den den mushi and waited for her reply.
Brr-brr.
Brr-brr.
Not long after, the den den mushi in his hand rang.
The den den mushi was quickly connected, and Reno walked to the side.
"Lord Reno."
Morgans's voice came from the other end.
"Lord Reno, what are your orders?"
Reno calmly said, "Tell me Zunesha's location."
Originally, he had planned to stay in the Giant for two days after subduing Gunko and Gerd.
Firstly, to catch up with Brogy and Dorry, whom he hadn't seen in a long time.
Secondly, to experience the customs and traditions of Elbaf, the world's strongest nation.
But this time, he had directly angered Imu, so things were no longer so simple.
Reno believed that Imu and the World Government must have already taken action.
He couldn't sit by and wait for death either; he had to accelerate the speed of subduing beauties to prepare for the upcoming final battle.
Soon, Reno hung up the phone.
With Zunesha's body size of over 20,000 meters, as long as he knew its approximate sea area, it wouldn't take long to find its exact location.
"How is it, have you decided?"
Reno asked as he put away the den den mushi.
Gerd opened her mouth, intending to refuse, but swallowed her words.
She looked at everyone, clearly sensing the hesitation in their eyes.
Captain Dorry was right.
For the Giant to resist the World Government with their current strength was like a praying mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Reno could indeed shelter the Giant.
After weighing the pros and cons, Gerd sighed and said, "I... I agree to your conditions."
Harem member +1!
"A wise choice." Reno smiled and nodded.
Everything was within his expectations.
"Kababababababa... Everyone's happy, everyone's happy!"
Brogy burst into hearty laughter.
In this way, they not only strengthened their ties with Reno but also gained an additional layer of protection for the Giant.
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, Brogy's laughter stopped abruptly, and he quickly moved his foot to the side.
He tilted his head slightly, only to see Gerd glaring at him with murderous intent.
Brogy rubbed his head, gave an awkward smile, and said no more.
"Gagagagagaga... Reno, you rarely visit, this time you must drink to your heart's content."
Seeing this, Dorry immediately changed the subject.
"No." Reno shook his head, politely declining Dorry's invitation.
"Gentlemen, I still have important matters to attend to, so I won't stay here long."
"Besides that, I have one more thing I need your help with."
"Tell us."
Seeing Reno's serious tone, Dorry also reined in some of his smiles.
"Saul is Robin's good friend. Coming to the Giant this time, she wants to meet Saul."
Reno briefly explained Robin's intention to the others.
"Robin, the devil child..."
Dorry murmured softly.
"I've heard a little about what happened in Ohara back then."
"Saul often mentioned you after he returned," he said, looking at Robin.
"Really??"
Upon hearing this, Robin immediately became excited.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
Dorry nodded affirmatively.
"Reno, leave this matter to me."
"I'll take Robin to the Walrus School to find Saul in a bit."
Brogy nodded and guaranteed.
"Thank you for your trouble." Reno nodded slightly.
"Captain, be careful on the way."
Robin walked gracefully to Reno, pecking him on the cheek as if no one else was around.
"Don't worry." Reno stroked Robin's forehead, a faint smile on his face.
"Cough, cough."
As long as they weren't embarrassed, others would be.
"Tashigi, Gunko, Gerd, let's go."
Reno called out and immediately summoned his spaceship.
Tashigi and Gunko stepped onto the deck one after another.
"Leaving so soon??"
Gerd clearly hadn't accepted this reality yet.
She hesitated, looking at Brogy, Dorry, and her other Giant companions.
To her pleading gaze, everyone chose to ignore her with extreme tacit understanding.
"You guys, I'm leaving!!!"
Gerd stamped her foot in anger.
Then she picked up her giant axe and stepped onto the spaceship.
As everyone watched, the spaceship ascended, gradually disappearing into the sky.
"Gagagagaga... Robin, I'll take you to find Saul now."
Dorry raised his arm and laughed.
"Thank you."
Robin returned a polite smile.
"What... what kind of situation is this??"
After everyone left, Hajrudin grumbled unhappily, looking at the Sea Stone chains on the ground.
Loki was gone, and Gerd was gone too!
On the spaceship.
"Reno, you... can you stop looking at me like that?"
"I... I'm a little scared."
Gerd put down her giant axe and covered her chest with both hands.
At this moment, she was like a lonely and helpless little girl.
Reno's gaze seemed to penetrate her clothes, seeing through to her inner self.
"Am I that scary?"
Reno gave Gerd a sideways glance.
It was all Morgans's previous reports that ruined his brilliant image.
They described him as a pervert.
"Yes."
Gerd swallowed, leaning against the corner, trembling.
She wasn't a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl; she was already 75 years old.
Compared to human lifespan, she was currently around 25 years old.
All in all!
She knew what kind of trick Reno was playing!
Didn't he just want to possess her body?
Reno shook his head helplessly.
Prejudice, it was all prejudice!
"Alright, let's talk business first."
Reno reined in his smile and said seriously, "Gerd, your current strength is too weak; you need to improve it as quickly as possible."
As he spoke, he continuously took out several items from the system warehouse.
A conqueror's haki fruit.
A Paramecia-type Momo-Momo Fruit.
A Three Types of Haki Cultivation Manual.
A Six Powers Cultivation Manual.
A storage ring.
A breast enhancement underwear.
A hellflame axe!
"What... what are all these?"
Gerd blinked her light blue eyes, which were filled with confusion.
"This is a conqueror's haki fruit. After eating it…"
Renol, like a connoisseur, patiently explained the function of each item to Gerd.
Gerd' mouth gaped in astonishment, her eyes growing brighter.
Any one of these items, if taken out, would be enough to cause a large-scale scramble.
Uh… except for the breast enhancement underwear.
When Renol explained its function, Gerd kept her head down, blushing the entire time.
Of course, Gunko did too.
After spending a few minutes thoroughly explaining the function of all the items to Gerd, Renol smiled and said, "Do you understand everything now?"
Still immersed in shock, Gerd subconsciously nodded.
"Wait, are all these… for me??"
Gerd asked somewhat uncertainly.
"Of course."
Renol couldn't help but laugh.
"You are my woman. Isn't it only right that I give these to you?"
He retorted.
"Me? Who's your woman?"
Gerd pouted and mumbled, but her gaze never left the two Devil Fruits and the hellflame axe.
Just now, she felt her worldview had been strongly impacted.
It is well known that Conqueror's Haki can only be awakened naturally; you either have it from birth or you don't.
But what was this conqueror's haki fruit all about?
Secondly, World Destroyer Byrnndi World's Paramecia-type Momo-Momo Fruit was also in Renol's hands??
The most outrageous thing was that, according to Renol, she could eat both Devil Fruits simultaneously without any side effects.
Finally, she really liked the hellflame axe in front of her.
It was too powerful! Compared to it, the giant axe in her hand was only good for chopping trees.
"Cough, cough… Renol, since they're all for me, can I eat them now??"
Gerd asked, swallowing her saliva and her eyes shining.
"Wait."
"Gerd, I've given you so many good things. Aren't you going to show some appreciation??"
Renol stopped her with a mischievous smile.
Want a free ride? There aren't that many good things in the world.
Gerd' heart sank.
She scratched her head and feigned ignorance, "Cough, cough, what… what do you mean??"
"What do I mean??"
Are you pretending not to know?
Renol truly laughed.
"Gunko, take off your clothes."
He waved his hand.
"Captain."
Gunko called out plaintively, but still obediently stripped off all her clothes, immediately revealing her beautiful figure.
"Ah!!"
"You… you…"
Gerd subconsciously let out a sharp shriek, her face flushing red again.
Renol gently lifted Gunko's chin, his gaze fixed on Gerd, and teased, "Gerd, I have an ability that can make others obey my every command."
"However, by then, the person I control will become a mere husk. Do you want to try it??"
His words were half-true, half-false.
Gerd subconsciously swallowed her saliva. In her nervous state, she had no judgment left.
"Forget it. Since you're disobedient, I can only resort to this."
Renol shook his head and walked towards Gerd.
"No… don't."
Gerd waved her hands frantically, her face turning pale with fright.
If she truly became a mere husk, what meaning would her life have?
"Re…"
"Hmm?!!"
"Ca-Captain, I… I understand what you mean, but… but our sizes…"
Gerd stammered incoherently.
Renol's lips curved into a smile. The next second, Navy Six Styles: Life Return!
Gerd' pupils constricted in shock, her expression completely lost.
She watched with wide eyes as Renol's body grew larger, and the little Renol also grew larger.
"Now, is it okay??"
A devil-like whisper sounded in Gerd' ear.
Gerd' face was ashen.
"Everyone, come here."
Renol turned and walked towards the Time Room. His unquestionable tone simultaneously reached the ears of both women.
Gunko followed silently, naked, step by step.
Gerd hesitated, her chest pounding like dozens of deer.
"Gerd."
Renol's slightly displeased voice came from within the Time Room.
"Coming… coming."
Gerd responded with a dejected nod.
She looked at the array of treasures before her and pouted, "For your sake, I'm really going all out."
Muttering to herself, she gathered her courage and walked towards the Time Room.
"Now can I take those things??"
Wiping the essence from the corners of her mouth, Gerd looked at Renol plaintively.
"Go ahead."
Renol smiled and nodded.
With his permission, Gerd stumbled out of the Time Room.
"You go rest too."
Renol looked at Gunko and said softly.
"Mm."
Gunko nodded shyly.
Their footsteps were surprisingly in sync.
