[Photo: Kaya's lap pillow.]
[I was wrong, terribly wrong.]
[Kaya not only gained a bigger chest but also extremely elastic thighs and smooth skin.]
[Just resting the back of my head on Kaya's legs, I can feel the kind of bounce that seems like it could launch my head away.]
[It's truly irresistible.]
[And the rhythmic motion of her fingers, Tsunade's expertise as a doctor is top-notch.]
[Even massage knowledge is included in Tsunade's template.]
[Although Carina's reverse lap pillow is also very enjoyable,]
[If I were to compare, Kaya's is still the best.]
[Speaking of which, I wonder what Uta's lap pillow feels like. If there's a chance, I definitely need to experience it.]
Gion: "This Arton, always recording his indulgent experiences. Honestly, if you become a marine, I can offer you a lap pillow too. Don't you want to experience my long legs?"
Charlotte Smoothie: "Arton, you're really enjoying yourself. But a lap pillow from a long-legged tribe would satisfy you even more~."
Vinsmoke Reiju: "A lap pillow? Mine should be quite good too."
Nami: "I can do it too! Mine is definitely better than Carina's. Give me a chance to meet you, Arton!"
Whitey Bay: "It seems I'm at a disadvantage in this aspect."
Nojiko: "Whether it's a lap pillow or massage, I might not be as good as Kaya. However, if the lap pillow includes some scenes from the doujinshis, I should be able to win Arton's favor. That way, Arton will take many photos of me and give me points."
Kozuki Hiyori: "I need to study the knowledge about lap pillows properly. If I can't surpass Carina and Kaya, I won't get many chances for Arton to take my photos. Without that, I can't gain enough power to avenge my father and mother."
Camie: "Lap pillows... That's something difficult for a young mermaid to do."
Shyarly: "Camie, perhaps Arton would enjoy lying on a mermaid's tail."
Seeing the content in the diary, Kaya couldn't help but shiver slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed as she looked toward Carina and Uta.
Uta was watching Kaya at that moment. When she saw Kaya looking over, she waved her hand casually, as if she didn't mind at all.
Carina also seemed unfazed. Having Kaya help take care of Arton allowed Carina to lighten her load a bit.
She was more than happy about it.
However, while Carina did feel relieved having Kaya to help serve Arton, she was also displeased with what Arton had written in his diary at the moment.
"This man, seriously... I don't even know what to say."
"Was my lap pillow really that bad?"
"You clearly enjoyed it a lot at the time."
Carina pursed her lips, silently grumbling about Arton.
[No, I shouldn't say that about Carina.]
[Overall, Carina's lap pillow is still very delightful.]
[And with the Yae Miko template, Carina's potential in terms of appearance is immense.]
[Maybe after some time, as Carina further activates Yae Miko's bloodline, her lap pillow might be on par with Kaya's.]
[And if Carina fully embraces the Yae Miko template, I'll be able to stroke her soft fox tail.]
[Thinking about it, it's really unfair to say Carina's lap pillow is bad.]
[Hmm, suddenly I'm missing Carina's lap pillow.]
[And Uta… Uta's legs are really beautiful. It's no wonder she can dance so charmingly. Plus, Uta's template has dragon power.]
[A dragon girl's lap pillow, I really want to experience it.]
[It should feel different from Kaya's and Carina's lap pillows, right?]
"This guy, enjoying Kaya's service while thinking about me?"
"This must be what Arton always says about having your cake and eating it too."
Uta thought to herself, feeling a mix of exasperation and happiness at Arton's appreciation of her.
[By the way, I often lie in reverse on Carina's lap.]
[If I bring her over now, could I enjoy a front-and-back lap pillow combo?]
"What is this guy thinking?"
"How could there be such a lap pillow?!"
Carina almost blurted out her thoughts in front of Arton.
Similarly, Kaya struggled to maintain her composure and steady her hands.
Even so, just imagining the scenario Arton described made Kaya's hands tremble with embarrassment.
Eventually, even Arton opened his eyes.
"What's wrong, Kaya? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, nothing's wrong, Arton-san."
"But your hands are shaking, and your face is very red."
"I'm really fine, I can continue."
"Alright then, but if it gets too much, let me know."
Arton adjusted his position slightly and closed his eyes again.
Kaya took a deep breath, calming herself before continuing to massage Arton.
However, before her hands could touch Arton's face, Arton's diary recorded something that made Kaya even more embarrassed.
[As expected, Kaya is still too shy.]
[Even though she acts tough during battles.]
[In everyday life, she is still that young, beautiful girl.]
[But when I lie on her lap, her face turns completely red.]
[If in the future, we walk down the aisle and enter the bridal chamber, I wonder what her expression will be like.]
[Hmm... I really want to see it.]
[Speaking of which, since Kaya has inherited Tsunade's big breasts, our future children will never go hungry.]
Buzz!
At that moment, smoke rose from Kaya's head, and her eyes turned into spiral swirls.
She fainted.
Kaya completely passed out.
She fell forward, lying directly on top of Arton.
While Kaya blocked the sunlight shining on Arton, she also pressed his face into her chest.
"Kaya?"
Arton reopened his eyes, asking in confusion.
Since his face was pressed down, his voice sounded muffled.
Kaya did not respond. Arton frowned slightly and used his Transparent World ability to make his vision transparent.
The next moment, Kaya's internal condition appeared before his eyes.
"Strange, there's nothing abnormal."
"Why did she faint?"
Arton mumbled.
"Don't worry, Arton."
"Kaya just got a bit too embarrassed."
Uta shook her head, chuckling as she spoke to Arton.
"Embarrassed?"
"Indeed, Kaya is too pure."
Arton smiled, using his thoughts to take a photo of their current situation and upload it to the diary...
Although it happened by chance, it was the first time his face tested Kaya's kindness so directly.
No matter what, it was a moment worth commemorating.
[Photo: The moment Kaya "collapsed"!]
Nami: "Another photo! This...is so bold? No, I, I can do this too!"
Nojiko: "What a pity, with my conditions, I can't do better than Kaya in this situation."
Violet: "Hehe, if it were me, it would also please Arton enough for him to take a photo."
Baccarat: "Thankfully, my parents gave me a good figure. This might be the best treasure they left me."
Whitey Bay: "It's troublesome. I don't have an advantage in terms of chest size. Indeed, I need to be bold enough to attract Arton's attention."
Belo Betty: "In terms of elasticity, I should be qualified."
Hibari: "So, so embarrassing, why does Arton keep posting these photos in his diary?"
Kujaku: "For Arton, these are things worth recording. They are also something we can use to our advantage."
Tashigi: "Do...do we have to do what Kaya is doing now to get close to Arton?"
Gion: "Perhaps, there is no other way."
Hina: "Tashigi, you don't need to be so nervous. You probably won't have to do such things."
Tashigi: "..."
Seeing Hina's message, Tashigi was at a loss for words for a moment.
Although it reassured Tashigi that she wouldn't have to do what Kaya was doing now with Arton, as a woman, Tashigi couldn't help but feel disheartened at the thought of her own charms not being able to attract a man's attention.
If Arton could see the conversation between Tashigi and Hina, he would surely comfort Tashigi.
He would tell Tashigi that in the future, her chest would far surpass Hina's.
Sadi: "If I could have a good session of tormenting Arton, I could make him fall into my embrace, hehe."
Kujaku: "Indeed, Arton is someone who makes people want to train him. I hope that when I get close to Arton, I'll find an opportunity to train him. First, I need to prepare myself mentally and be willing to use my body to make Arton let his guard down."
Doll: "Mental preparation, indeed. Once we actually interact with Arton, we might have to offer him more benefits than we originally thought."
Gion: "Or, it might lead to a direct battle if Arton sees through our intentions."
Sadi: "I hope you marines out there have learned your lesson and won't let Arton poison you again."
Seeing the photo in the diary, Uta shrugged helplessly.
"When Kaya wakes up, I wonder if she'll faint again from seeing the photo and Arton's words."
Knowing Kaya was okay and seeing Arton's intention to get up, Uta turned her attention back to steering the ship.
Meanwhile, Carina buried her head, continuing to follow Arton's diary.
[Hmm, just lying in Kaya's embrace, smelling her scent, makes me feel like falling asleep.]
[But that won't do. At least not until I finish writing this diary entry.]
[Golden Lion Shiki, I wonder if Buggy will really meet that legendary pirate on this treasure hunt.]
"Golden Lion Shiki?!"
"Is Arton's destination this time to meet Golden Lion Shiki?!"
Gion's eyes widened in shock as she looked at the contents displayed in the diary.
