"...Nami?"

  "...a?"

  When Nami was in deep despair at how easily she was caught, she was dumbfounded by the person before her.

  Naturally, a was also dumbfounded since she didn't expeeet Nami this way.

  As the two old rivals met each other, Masa looked at the ship that was sailed by Nami.

  'Hmm... have they reached that stage?'

  Masa thought that he would meet Nami before her meeting with Luffy, but it seemed he was a bit too te. At the same time, he wondered whether Nami had just left Baratie, the o-goiaurant, stealing the ship araying Luffy and everyone.

  Yet... he had to say, Nami wasn't as beautiful as he thought to be.

  Moreover, her fruits weren't as big as Masa thought they would be.

  However, he also uood that it was normal, especially when Nami used all of her money for a certain purpose.

  Then again, Nami was far better than Tashigi, who he met for the first time.

  Still, while a didn't expeeet Nami in this pami was also dumbfounded whe a, especially when she saw a's panions.

  'These... aren't they too wealthy?'

  Not only their ship but their clothes, the way they dressed themselves, and everything.

  Everything about them screamed about a, premium, and the best of the best, which made Nami feel quite inferior, especially when she looked at her old t-shirt and skirt.

  In the inal, this might be the reason why she often used all of her moo buy clothes sier a certain pirate came to her hometown, she had no money and spent everything to buy her hometown so it wouldn't be haunted by this pirate.

  "Should I give you time to talk with your friend, a?"

  "Yes, sorry, Masa."

  Waving his hand, Masa left with the iving a and Nami to talk with each other.

  "You don't pn to add her to your harem, Masa?" Perona asked curiously before they eve, and naturally, Nami and a heard that question, too.

  Sp!

  Masa directly spped Perona's cute buttocks.

  "It hurts! What are you doing?!" Perona was angry and looked at him in tears.

  "Don't talk some nonsense!"

  "But you seem to have an i in her."

  Frankly, Pero quite fused by Masa's taste since all the women that he was with didn't have a simirity, and even if some were so beautiful, he didn't seem to have much of an i, yet when he saw some rustid unfashionable girl, he appeared to be ied.

  Still, from all the women that Masa had chosen, Perona was sure that no one was a vase with just a beautiful face. Instead, they all had a certain specialty within them, especially her, she thought.

  So, if Nami could somehow bee a strength for him, then why not?

  "...I am not sure what you are thinking about, but stop having that smug expression, okay?"

  "Ahnh~! Please five me~! I will wear a cheerleader e for you, okay~?"

  As Perona begged for fiveness, Masa wondered whether there was a need for her to scream like that, especially in a voice that could be heard by Nami, but he khat she o teach this naughty goblin!

  Still, Perona also quickly grabbed Kalifa and Tashigi since she needed help, or else she was sure that she would die!

  Only Vivi wondered what she should do. After all, she didn't want to join since, as a princess, she had her pride, and it was also impossible to lose her virginity at such a time, okay?

  Even Tashigi lost her first time when she was with Masa alone, so how could Vivi stay in such a rge group together?

  'At least, I want it to be romantic...'

  "...."

  However, Nami and a, who were left behind, fell silent and, watg Nami's i-like appearance, blushed shyly, realizing what Masa and the others po do.

  Still, a thought that Nami was cute and asked helplessly, "Did you try to rob our ship?" Even if Nami hadn't said anything, as they had spent quite a long time together, she knew what Nami po do.

  "...this... Is this your ship?"

  Even if Nami had a guess, she was dumbfounded when she heard the truth from a.

  "Yes."

  "....."

  Nami fell silent for a moment and asked with a flicted tone. "Have... have you bee his woman?" She tried to be polite, but then again, a disdain clearly showed in her voice, showing how a had fallen so low.

  Even if Nami was a thief, she still treasured her body and virginity, so of course, she couldn't help but feel a slight superiority toward a as she could protect her dignity, but a wasn't such a kind ale woman, and she quickly tore away Nami's small superiority and pride mercilessly, "You are just a thief that is stealing from others, why are you so proud when what you do is a crime?"

  "....." Nami.

  "Moreover, it isn't bad to have a bag in this harsh sea..."

  When a thought of her first meeting with Masa, she couldn't help but feel mencholy, thinking how horrible that first meeting was, yet uedly, that emotion had ged into something else.

  "...you love him?"

  Nami couldn't help but ask that question when she saw a's affe-filled gaze.

  Sn, a blushed, feeling embarrassed by such a question. "Stop with such a strange question!"

  "..."

  Yet, Nami had to say, she was so envious of a's life.

  Meeting her loved one, having a good life, and... happy days filled with happiness.

  Still, one question emerged in Nami's head.

  "...so, is he strong?"

  When Nami looked at all the vicious yet cute cats who held various ons and then thought of Masa's overbeari gentle presence, she couldn't help but ask this question with a little hope.

  "Strong."

  a blushed whehought of how strong Masa was.

  "I don't mearong in that area!"

  Nami also blushed when she saw a's expression.

  "Oh, what do you mean by strong, then?"

  "Stop teasing me, you bitch!"

  "Don't get all shy, you virgin!"

  As the two of them started to get heated, a said, "Well, enough of joking, but to answer your question, he is strong."

  "How strong?"

  "Er... you remember Mad Treasure?"

  "Of course, I remember!" Nami's expression was that of a fiere when she remembered that name, and she also looked at a with a furious look. "How dare you mention that name when you left and abandoned me at that time?!"

  In the past, Nami and a had worked together to rob the treasures of the Mad Treasure, a famous treasure hunter on the sea, but as they were caught, a left Nami behind and took all of the wealth that they had collected in the past.

  Even now, due to that aami bears a grudge against a!

  "Sorry, sorry. I also received karma, okay? Also, if I didn't do that, then would you think that, with his character, he would leave you alone?"

  "...you are right."

  sidering Mad Treasure's character, Nami also khat if a hadn't robbed all of the treasure and abandoned her at that time, their lives wouldn't have been saved, and it was because Mad Treasure found it funny that a betrayed Nami that the two of them could keep their lives.

  Well, a's method was still horrible, though.

  "So, what are you all doing here? Don't tell me that you want to show off to me hoy you are, right?"

  While Nami asked with a grudge, thinking that a wao funt her wealth and happiness, a shook her head and said, "No, Masa wants to bee an admiral, so he thought to collect all the pirates to funt during the Admiral War."

  "...what?"

  "He wants to collect pirates, so do you know where the most vicious pirate is here?"

  "..." Nami.

  While Nami eechless, inwardly, a had to say that it was embarrassing to admit that she wao help Nami.
