Chereads / In One Piece With The Barrier Fruit / Chapter 42 - Conquering Desire

Chapter 42 - Conquering Desire

A few days later.

The news about the Big Daddy Pirates' attack on Loguetown was not as popular as the brief appearance of Belo Betty, commander of the Revolutionary East Army, in Loguetown.

After all, Basire is just a rookie pirate with a bounty of 30 million beri, while Belo Betty is a wanted criminal from the World Government with a bounty of over 400 million beri!

After a few days of getting along with each other, the chef Carmen finally integrated into the Big Daddy Pirates. Several female pirates from the original Candy Pirates also became her assistants in the kitchen, mostly doing chores.

Desire's Candy Pirates actually have a few fast motorboats. They originally planned to form a motorboat unit, but now they all belong to the Big Daddy Pirates.

Nami quickly mastered the skills of driving motorboats and took charge of them, while Desire lost all rights and was kept by Basire's side almost like a slave.

She came to realize that she is being treated like a vase that can't do anything.

This morning, Basire climbed up from the top of Desire feeling refreshed, while she lay on the bed like a puddle of soft mud, with the skin all over her body hot and rosy, looking like she was enjoying herself but pretending to be indifferent.

"It's been three days already. Your mouth has been tough, but your body has been honest. If you really don't want to follow me, I'll give up. You can just commit suicide and I won't stop you anymore."

He could say this with such calm only because he was sure she wouldn't do it. After all, these past few days she would keep insulting him but would still cooperate enthusiastically in bed. Even if she denies it, Basire had already become the most important person in her heart a long time ago, she was just having trouble accepting what he did.

"However, I will let your crew be buried together with you so that you will not be alone on the road to hell."

Basire said calmly while getting dressed. If he still couldn't make this woman recognize the truth after three days, he wouldn't force it anymore.

Anyway, he will have no shortage of women like this in the future, he said unconvincingly in his heart. He would never recognize any weakness out loud.

Desire was just taking advantage of being the first woman in his heart, making Basire tolerate her again and again.

Even Nami doesn't have such high-level treatment, let alone Honey Queen, who is not as useful.

But something he noticed is that as the number of people he kills increases, his feelings other than bloodlust are becoming weaker and weaker.

He wouldn't mind it that much if it wasn't because having such high bloodlust could become a liability, so he will have to pay attention to find a solution to this problem.

When Desire heard Basire's words, her pupils trembled and her heart became a little panicked.

"This is the Paramecia Slippery Fruit, which can make any woman the most beautiful woman in the world. If it is sold to the Celestial Dragons, it may be auctioned for a high price of more than 1 billion beri."

"If you eat it, you might be able to compete with the pirate empress Boa Hancock for the title of the most beautiful woman in the world."

"If you decide to follow me, this fruit will be given to you."

"Of course, you can also choose this dagger."

Basire took out the slippery fruit and a dagger and placed them in front of Desire, and said in an indifferent tone, thinking that three days was the maximum limit he could give.

He didn't have as much patience as Kuro, who could keep torturing Bear King with sea water for five days and five nights. It only took half a day for Basire to subdue Eldoraggo.

"Can't you coax me a little more like before?"

Desire said through gritted teeth, then picked up the Slippery Fruit and bit it down. She had already lost Grandma and Barto, as well as the Candy Pirates, so now she only has Basire.

And she is not willing to leave Basire to a coquettish bitch like that Honey Queen!

She is Basire's first woman!

She wants to take it all back!

This Devil Fruit, which is worth more than 1 billion beri, can barely comfort her grief of losing her grandma.

This man still values her a little bit.

"This slippery fruit is the gift I prepared for you. While you couldn't even save our house from the Barto Club's people. Why do you even have any nostalgia for them!"

He definitely did not pout as he said those words…

Seeing Desire make a choice, Basire chuckled lightly and dropped his clothes to the ground again. He wanted to study the function of the slippery fruit with her.

Because Desire, who had eaten the slippery fruit, her appearance improved at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye, making him unable to stop the blood rushing down inside his body.

This will be another full day of "research" and "exploration".

The crew members of the Big Daddy Pirates are already used to Basire spending his time in private with Desire, his ex-girlfriend, but Nami is the only one who is a little mad about it.

'Isn't it just that it's bigger there and a little bouncier here! What's so great about that bitch?!'

Nami, who is now only 17 years old, said with an angry face, feeling resentful because she's not receiving much attention.

Why is Basire not attracted to her at all?

She touched her short orange hair, she seemed to be a bit like a tomboy now. Could it be that Basire liked girls with long hair and mature looking?

For this reason, she decided to grow her hair long and learn how to dress and use make-up like Honey Queen. She could no longer wear such old-fashioned T-shirts.

The next day.

When Basire appeared with the extremely beautiful Desire, even Nami, Honey Queen, and Carmen were moved by it. Bear King and the others quickly lowered their heads, not daring to take another look. The captain's woman was just too beautiful.

They were afraid that if they looked at her a few more times, they would be beaten up by Basire!

'Is this still Desire? Could it be possible to become more beautiful by doing "that"?'

The women crew members looked at the beautiful Desire a little blankly, and even the female pirates from the original Candy Pirates looked at Desire's stunning appearance in disbelief.

"Desire will be a cadre on the ship from now on."

Basire said casually, without giving her too much rights. She was just his woman.

Although Desire was his first woman and she also ate the Slippery Fruit and became a great beauty, her status would only stay the same if her strength could not keep up.

"When Basire still didn't go to sea, I was his woman. But now I am the last one to board the ship, and I am just a newbie, so I hope everyone can give me your advice and take care of me!"

Desire was modest while emphasizing her relationship with Basire, clearly marking her territory. She also took a few more glances at her rival Honey Queen, and didn't even pay attention to the old-fashioned short-haired Nami.

This made Nami clench her fists and shout in her heart: 'just you wait, I'm too young now but in two years, I will be even more beautiful than you!'

"Zoro, here are some moves!"

Basire ignored the sparks of electricity between these women. After playing around for a few days, he wanted to continue his practice.

After seeing Belo Betty's powerful abilities, Basire felt that he was still too weak.

These crew members were also ordered by Basire to double their training, or else…

It was so embarrassing that they were almost killed by normal people because of Belo Betty's Pump-Pump Fruit power.

It's time for the grind, as long as they can move a single muscle, it means they haven't trained enough!

The Dreadnaught Saber is a huge sailing ship with three decks. It has a lot of space, and the Big Daddy Pirates currently only have more than 20 people, so everyone has enough space to practice and relax.

This sailing ship was used as the main ship of the East Blue Overlord Krieg Pirates, and it could accommodate two to three hundred people at the same time.

According to Basire's order, the current Big Daddy Pirates have slowly approached the entrance to the Grand Line, Reverse Mountain, after leaving Loguetown.

But according to the map, there are several small islands in front of the Reverse Mountain, and there is even a Marine branch fortress.

And Loguetown is just the nearest medium-sized island in front of the Grand Line entrance, not the nearest island. It's just because of Roger the Pirate King that it became more famous.

"Captain Basire! The island in front is Warship Island!!"

Nami saw an island that looked like a warship and shouted loudly. Seeing this island meant that they were really not far from Reverse Mountain!
