The Big Mom Pirate group belonged to the pirate ship led by Smoothie.
Cabin, infirmary.
Minutes ago.
"Rifan, your power is truly powerful."
"I'm becoming more and more interested in you."
"Please be my husband; I will treat you well."
"After getting married, I will satisfy you, whether it is ordinary life or night life."
"Trust me, my Devil Fruit ability will bring you ultimate joy."
After Rifan used the power of the Flower-Flower Fruit to put Smoothie on the hospital bed, Smoothie couldn't help but speak to Rifan.
While speaking, she also made a special gesture of using the squeezed fruit.
This made Rifan realize that Smoothie was indeed the daughter of Big Mom Charlotte Linlin.
Shyness didn't exist in Smoothie's dictionary at all.
Robin beat her to the punch, much to Smoothie's displeasure.
But she also had to admire Robin's strength.
Similarly, it also made Smoothie realize the powerful potential of the Black Pearl Pirates.
And Rifan once again demonstrated the power of the Flower-Flower Fruit, which made Smoothie look up to Rifan even more.
Rifan's ability to use the powers of the Darkness and Lightning Devil Fruits surprised everyone in the Big Mom Pirates, including Smoothie.
Charlotte Linlin also determined that Rifan was a special race for this reason and wanted to invite Rifan to join her Pirate Group.
And now, the third ability displayed by Rifan had doubled the value contained within himself.
Smoothie believed that if she were to tell her mother, Charlotte Linlin, about Rifan's information and Robin's situation, she would definitely want the Black Pearl Pirates more.
After all, it didn't matter if it was Rifan who possessed extraordinary powers or Robin's rich archaeological knowledge and powerful strength.
Everything about them will definitely attract her mother.
"I should have made it very clear that I have no intention of being Charlotte Linlin's son-in-law.
"It's you, Miss Smoothie; I'm very interested in you."
"If you're willing to be my wife, I don't mind marrying you from the Big Mom Pirates to the Black Pearl Pirates."
While talking, Rifan took off the super-long boots worn by Smoothie.
"Rifan, you understand that I am the fourth general of the Big Mom Pirate group."
"Mom won't let me leave the Big Mom Pirates."
"Even if I'm interested in a powerful man like you,"
Smoothie shook her head and said.
Although she hadn't seen Rifan display much of his strength, since Rifan could control Robin, and considering some previous rumors about Rifan, in Smoothie's mind, Rifan's power level had been ranked very high.
"That's right, you are one of the four generals, so you have a special status."
"In that case, how about letting your sister Charlotte Cinnamon marry me?"
"Or have Charlotte Garrett come aboard my ship?"
"In this way, our two pirate groups can also be considered married."
Rifan smiled and glanced at Garrett and Cinnamon, who were watching him worriedly and vigilantly.
Smoothie, Cinnamon, Garrett, and other members of the Big Mom Pirates in the medical room were taken aback when they heard Rifan's words.
It was like hearing something unbelievable.
Smoothie was the first to react.
She shook her head with a chuckle and said:
"Rifan, you really know how to joke."
Rifan couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth when he heard this and said:
"I'm not joking."
"I'm a person who loves beauty, and a woman like Miss Garret fits my taste perfectly."
"As for Miss Cinnamon, such a tall figure is rare among normal humans. I also want to try falling in love with this type of woman."
"Miss Smoothie is the same; such a tall figure is really amazing."
"It's just that since you are one of the four generals, there's nothing I can do."
Rifan shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Smoothie opened her mouth involuntarily and looked at Cinnamon and Garrett dumbfoundedly.
It had never occurred to her that her fiancé would openly admit to having a crush on her two younger sisters.
At this moment, Smoothie couldn't help but understand why there were so many outstanding women around Rifan.
"It seems that you have a preference for beautiful women, Rifan."
Smoothie smiled and sighed.
Smoothie wasn't surprised by Rifan's taste.
After all, when she was in Totto Land, she had already encountered many people with unique preferences for beauty.
Many of these powerful pirates shared the same interests as Rifan.
Smoothie opened her mouth, ready to say something to Rifan.
Rifan frowned suddenly, a red light flashing in his eyes as he looked towards the direction outside the cabin.
Smoothie raised her brows and "looked" out of the boat at the same time.
Soon, Hancock and Mikita clashed, and the image of them using Conqueror's Haki against each other was etched in her mind.
"That Mikita, who has a bounty of 300 million Berries, also possesses Conqueror's Haki?!"
"Wait, Hancock got pinned by her Conqueror's Haki?!"
"Huh?! Mikita's Conqueror's Haki shook the Kuja Pirates' pirate ship?!"
Smoothie's eyes widened in shock at the same time sparkling with intrigue.
Her heart rate suddenly increased due to the sheer surprise of it all.
"Stop using Observation Haki for now, Miss Smoothie."
"That arrogant empress seems to have had some conflicts with my Vice Captain."
"I need to attend to your injury promptly and then deal with Hancock's situation."
"Miss Smoothie, I want to use my special ability to heal you as a favour to Ada so you can recover quickly."
"I will swallow you into my stomach later to further address your fracture; I hope you won't resist."
Rifan patted Smoothie's thigh and said solemnly.
"Swallowed?"
Smoothie looked at Rifan dumbfounded.
She had never heard of curing diseases and wounds by swallowing a person.
"Could it be that this guy can use the power of other Devil Fruits?!"
Thinking of Rifan's ability to use the power of controlling black mist, thunder and lightning, and Robin's Flower-Flower Fruit, Smoothie couldn't help but wonder. This kind of thought even surprised Smoothie herself.
Rifan's ability to use three Devil Fruit abilities was already a fantasy, something that ordinary people wouldn't dare to even consider. If Rifan could use a fourth type or even more... Thinking of this, Smoothie couldn't imagine how powerful Rifan might be!
But at this moment, Smoothie's evaluation of Rifan's Devil Fruit abilities gradually aligned with the Marine's speculation about Rifan's abilities.
"I see, you took off my shoes earlier because you wanted to swallow me, right?"
"Please go ahead, Rifan."
"I trust you won't actually digest me."
"Speaking of which, do I need to take off my coat as well?"
Smoothie smiled and said to Rifan.
Smoothie understood that if Rifan truly intended to harm her, neither she nor the other members of the Big Mom Pirates she brought with her could resist. Under these circumstances, the likelihood of Rifan harming her was low. Therefore, it was better to use this opportunity to learn more about Rifan's hidden abilities.
"Generally speaking, you don't need to take off your coat."
"But later, I will use special techniques to apply ointment to your injured and fractured areas."
"This will help your body absorb the ointment more effectively and speed up your healing."
"Of course, after I swallow you, I won't be able to completely heal you."
"But when I spit you out again, your condition will be much improved."
"If you don't mind not getting the maximum treatment effect, you can ask your sisters to apply the ointment for you."
"After all, I'm only here to help because of Ada's request, and if I can save some effort, I'm not averse to it."
Rifan shrugged and said indifferently.
"Is that so? I thought a man like you would want to see me without my coat on."
Smoothie said with a smile, thinking of Rifan openly admitting his love for beauties and showing interest in her sister Garrett and Cinnamon.
"Rifan, please do your best to provide me with the best treatment."
"You are the doctor now, and I am the patient."
"So, as a patient, I shouldn't be shy about your identity as a man."
"And the first half of the Grand Line is not close to Totto Land."
"Now, the Marines on your ship know of our existence once again."
"Just to be safe, I think it's better for me to get back to full condition as soon as possible."
Smoothie looked at Rifan with bright eyes and said.
Then she signalled her sister Cinnamon, Garrett, and the others not to intervene and opened her arms, as if she were willing to be controlled by Rifan.
The more abilities Rifan revealed, the more curious Smoothie became about him, the fiancé chosen by her mother.
Smoothie wasn't thrilled about being defeated by Robin, but it didn't diminish her interest in Rifan.
As there was no way to forcefully take Rifan away, Smoothie wanted to see if she could impress him with her charm, laying the foundation for Rifan to marry her in the future.
Even now, Smoothie hadn't given up on having Rifan join the Big Mom Pirates and become her husband.
This wasn't only for the Big Mom Pirates but also for Smoothie herself.
In this sea, people always respected powerful individuals.
Rifan's strength made Smoothie feel respected, and his appearance matched Smoothie's aesthetic preferences.
Observing the many sons-in-law of the Big Mom Pirate group, Smoothie thought Rifan was the most attractive among them, not to mention the strongest.
Given these circumstances, Smoothie still wanted to vie for him, and if she didn't succeed, she would at least make Rifan her fiancé.
Through their previous conversation, Smoothie was almost certain that Rifan had a fondness for "beauties." This reinforced Smoothie's idea of attracting Rifan with her charm.
"As you wish."
Rifan didn't inquire further into Smoothie's intentions. With her permission, he used the power of the Flower-Flower Fruit to create arms around Smoothie and released the restraints of her coat without worsening her injuries.
In an instant, viewers who had been following Rifan's live broadcast saw only a pitch-black screen.
Rifan didn't release all of Smoothie's restraints, leaving her with basic inner clothing to preserve her modesty.
Under the astonished gaze of Smoothie, Cinnamon, Garrett, and others, Rifan swallowed Smoothie, causing his own body to involuntarily grow several notches taller due to her height.
"What kind of ability is this!?"
"Garrett, have you ever heard of it?"
Cinnamon nervously looked at Rifan, who appeared to be chewing something, and asked Garrett anxiously.
"I...I don't know, but Sister Smoothie, you should be fine…"
Garrett was also concerned, knowing that if something happened to Smoothie, it would be challenging for them to rely on their own strength to return to their territory. Even if they did return to Totto Land, they might have their lifespans drained by their mother.
This made Garrett prioritise her personal safety out of fear.
Fortunately, after Rifan had Smoothie in his stomach for a while, he safely regurgitated her.
At this point, aside from being covered in Rifan's saliva, Smoothie's bones had further mended.
"Sister, are you okay?"
Cinnamon and Garrett each picked up a towel and approached Smoothie, carefully helping her clean up.
"Don't worry; I'm fine."
"I want to thank Rifan; the pain in my body has indeed eased considerably after this experience."
"Rifan, could you please explain your ability?"
After Smoothie clenched her fists, she opened her arms for Cinnamon and Garrett to clean herself as she asked Rifan curiously.
