[31]Third Crew Member

Ren looked at the system reward while he was still using Geppo, carrying the two beautiful girls with him.

He smiled, then decided after a short atonement how to distribute these rewards.

Why?

You should know that he is no longer alone. He needs to strengthen his crew members as well. Of course, priority goes to him because he is the captain and he's the one who'll protect the crew if they face a difficult situation.

But if there is a reward that he doesn't need, why does he not give it to his crew members? Especially if they are his girlfriends.

He landed lightly in the island's forest, then placed Nami and Nojiko on the ground. He smiled at them and said:"I have some rewards for you."

"Rewards? I want!" Nami was the first to jump towards Ren with a pleading look and seemed to be eager to get something from Ren.

"Haha~ Look at yourself Nami.You're acting like a child." Unlike Nami, Nojiko remained calm and walked next to Ren, grabbing his arm with her hands and pulling it towards her chest.

Ren felt Nojiko's soft breasts, this girl was more professional in this matter than Nami.

"Nojiko...you!" Nami growled and felt that she had lost the competition again. She did the same thing as Nojiko and tried to please Ren's hand by touching her small breasts.

"...."

Ren looked at the two girls who were in a heated competition and sighed, not that he didn't like the feeling but...Nami's breasts were still very small compared to the future!

Ren felt that he had to find a way to make Nami reach her future body shape quickly and not have to wait a whole year.

"Okay girls, enough." He released his arms from Nami and Nojiko's chests and then patted their heads gently.

"Okay Captain Ren~" Nojiko said with her usual smile.

Nami also nodded towards Ren.

When he saw that the two girls had stopped playing, he took out their rewards from the Infinity space.

"This is the 'Geppo' Scroll, one of Rokushiki's skills. I previously told you about the Six Marine Styles, Haki, etc...So everything should be fine." Ren pointed to the scroll that appeared in his hand out of nowhere and began to speak.

"Oh! So this is one of the Rokushiki, Geppo that allows the user to float in midair?" Nojiko became excited at the thought that she could do the same thing as Ren.

Nami also wanted to speak, but Ren spoke before her: "yes, I'll give you Geppo, Nojiko."

"Yes! Captain is the best!" Nojiko laughed happily.

"...."

Nami was silent and started to feel sad, but that didn't last long because Ren's hand patted her shoulder.

"I will give you Armament Haki, Nami. It's a stronger ability than Geppo, so don't be sad." He took out the Armament Haki cake and gave it to Nami, who quickly started hugging him.

Nojiko wasn't sad or anything like that, she was just happy for her sister and was actually satisfied with Geppo's ability.

Ren chose these options because Nami used swords. If she obtains Armament Haki, her attacks will become twice as powerful.

"Girls, some pirates are coming to this village tonight....This will be your first real fight. I hope to see results Good." His words caught the attention of the girls, who nodded and then began consuming the sroll and the cake.

But he didn't end yet , he took out the observation Haki cake and give eat to Nojiko.

"This is observation Haki cake, it's for you too."

Nojiko looked at Ran an take the cake, and she started eat her.

After that, Ren slowly helped them get used to the new power. Nojiko was still a rookie in Geppo and could only rise a few meters into the air.

For observation Haki, this comes with practice and fighting battles.

While Nami can only show a little Haki weaponry in her hand before it disappears.

Ren kept giving them pointers and then left them alone in the forest to train and took out the middle level Geppo scroll.

Consuming this scroll will help him push Geppo's skill. Completely new and different horizons, perhaps even bringing some benefits to his physical strength.

He took out the scroll and after the information appeared in his mind, he began to forcefully use Geppo.

"This is comfortable."

He felt that his body was no longer as heavy as before when flying through the air and he was able to strike the air more lightly, so that he could now fight while he was "walking" in the "sky."

He wanted to test his limits with her, but when he saw that it was late and night was approaching, he stopped thinking about that and went down in front of the girls.

"Nojiko, Nami, let's go now. We will first go to Kaya's palace to do somethingb After Deal with the pirates."

"Un, Captain."

"Okay, Captain Ren."

The girls answered, and then with a composed waist-grabbing motion he began using Geppo again.

"I feel like that the captain's flying speed has become faster?" Nami said in a loud voice that Nojiko and Ren heard.

"Even I feel it, hehe, Captain Ren is getting stronger every day."

Nojiko laughed and clung to Ren holding her waist tighter.

They soon arrived at Kaya's palace again. It was sunset and several hours had passed since the previous incident. When Ren, Nami, and Nojiko arrived at the palace, Meryy saw them and quickly led them to Kaya's room.

*knock knock knock*

"Enter"

After Meryy knocked on the door, he heard Kaya's weak and sad voice from the other side. He opened the door and entered with Ren and the two sisters.

"We meet again, Miss Kaya." Ren looked at Kaya, who seemed to be in worse health than before.

When Kaya saw that Meryy wasn't alone and that the people who had saved her were with him, she smiled and returned the greeting politely, even though she didn't have a good impression of Ren at first, but this soon changed after everything he did for her.

"Hi Ren-san, I haven't said this yet, but thank you for saving me and all the people in this village." Kaya wanted to get out of bed and thank Ren properly, but soon she saw Ren motioning for her to stay comfortable in bed, she did so.

"There is no need to thank me, Miss Kaya. In fact, I came to you today cause I have something I want to ask you."

After Kaya heard Ren's words, she naturally wanted to help her savior.

"I want you to join my pirates crew."

After Ren said this, the room went into a long silence. Merry was about to say something but when he saw the frightened looks directed at Nami and Nojiko, he swallowed his words and decided to be silent, waiting for Kaya's answer.

"Joining your pirate crew..." Kaya was stunned upon hearing his request. She was just a sick girl who stayed in bed all her time, so why would the strongest pirate in the East Blue need her as a crewmate?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ren, if I were healthy, I wouldn't have rejected your offer, but I'm a sick girl and will only be a burden to you." kaya was very sad because she remembered Kuro's previous words when he said that the reason she was sick was because of the poison he was secretly giving her.

Even though he died, her hatred for him hadn't disappeared yet. When she knew that her illness would prevent her from going on a wonderful adventure, she couldn't help but hate him more.

"If it's your illness, I have the solution." Ren smiled and then took out the healing dose he had previously purchased from The System.

---------------------------------

-Low healing dose. Effect: Heals small wounds and small diseases. (It has a cosmetic effect for girls). Price: 50 million Belly..

---------------------------------

With this dose, Ren was sure that he could cure Kaya of all her diseases accumulated over the years.

"What?" Kaya was confused when she saw a clear bottle with blue liquid in Ren's hand.

"Drink this, Miss Kaya."

He gave her the dose and told her, Kaya didn't hesitate much because she didn't think that Ren would hurt her or anything.

He had already saved her when she first complained about him, she didn't want to repeat the same mistake, and even if he wanted to hurt her, he wouldn't resort to such methods with his strength.

But unlike Kaya, Merry was worried when he saw his oju-sama drinking something given to him by a dangerous pirate.

But Nami and Nojiko were right behind him, preventing him from doing anything reckless. He thought a little about Ren and his previous actions, which hadn't harmed Kaya, but she had witnessed them, then he sighed and decided to remain silent.

Kaya drank all of the blue liquid - and the next moment she began to feel a strange feeling of relief in her body.

She felt that her heavy and sick body had suddenly become healthy and vibrant. All those years of illness were just an illusion.

"!!!"

She got up from her bed and started walking with a dazed expression. Although she could walk and run even if she was sick, she didn't feel that her body wasn't sick!

"what happened to me?"She said in surprise and looked at Ren in astonishment.

Merry looking at this with confusion? Was Miss Kaya's skin better than usual or just imagining? Why did she suddenly get out of bed and start walking around the room?

"You can consider that what you drank is a magic medicine that cured your illness. So what do you think now, miss kaya? Will you accept to join my crew?"

"I-i..."Kaya looked at Mary for a moment, then returned her gaze to Ren and said:

"I'll join your crew Ren-san!"
