At the coastline, the sky slowly began to brighten.
Sinan and the rest stared out at the ocean, fully prepared for battle.
Even though his dual cultivation session with Kaya hadn’t fully satiated his lust, Sinan undeniably felt an immense sense of satisfaction and pure masculine accomplishment.
Under the passive effects of the Outer Path, he could physically feel his base strength increasing by several degrees once again.
Noticing Sinan sporting a blatantly sleazy grin, staring off into space while clenching and unclenching his fists, Nami quietly crept up right next to him.
A woman’s nose is incredibly sensitive to the scent of another woman.
The moment she got close to Sinan, Nami instantly picked up a highly distinct, foreign scent clinging to his body.
This immediately sent Nami’s internal alarms blaring.
“Sinan, you smell incredibly sweet right now!” Nami remarked slyly.
Hearing this, Sinan subconsciously sniffed his own clothes.
“And it smells exactly like another woman!” As she said this, Nami’s eyes narrowed dangerously into sharp slits.
Sensing the thick, terrifying murderous intent completely laced in Nami’s words, Sinan, who had still been happily reminiscing about Kaya’s wonderful body and his newly acquired power, instantly snapped back to reality with a cold shiver.
Having just engaged in a passionate, sweaty sex session with Kaya, endlessly exchanging god knows how many bodily fluids, it was entirely normal for Kaya’s scent to be deeply imprinted onto his skin.
Thinking quickly, Sinan immediately feigned a look of sudden realization and smoothly replied, “Oh, the scent!
Miss Kaya actually fainted from the shock of the attack.
Her scent must have rubbed off on me when I carried her back to her bedroom.” Sinan genuinely possessed the terrifying potential of a top-tier scumbag; he spat out the flawless lie without his heart skipping a single beat or his breathing faltering.
Nami sniffed him closely a few more times and questioned, “Is that so?
Then why is Miss Kaya’s scent so incredibly heavy on you?!
You didn’t do anything weird to her, did you?!” Nami stared at Sinan with absolute suspicion.
Before, Nami might have actually trusted Sinan’s character.
But ever since they slept together, whenever the two of them were alone, this bastard couldn’t keep his hands off her for a single second.
Because of this, Nami was forced to highly suspect Sinan’s moral integrity.
“How could I possibly do something like that?!
I had literally just finished a brutal deathmatch against Captain Kuro, and Butler Merry was right there the whole time!
What could I have possibly done?” Sinan replied with a perfectly straight, entirely righteous face.
Hearing Sinan’s perfectly logical explanation, Nami’s intense suspicions finally subsided slightly.
“A ship is coming!” Just then, Usopp, who was observing the ocean through a magnifying glass, yelled loudly, inadvertently completely saving Sinan from his predicament.
While Sinan wanted to mentally thank Usopp, he had absolutely zero intention of giving Kaya back.
As the morning sun fully rose, bright sunlight poured directly into the bedroom.
In the massive bed, Kaya slowly opened her eyes.
She had only slept for a short while, but Kaya felt as if she hadn’t slept this deeply and peacefully in years.
Her body felt incredibly refreshed and surprisingly energetic, causing the still slightly groggy girl to lazily snuggle her face against her pillow.
Suddenly remembering what had happened, Kaya instantly bolted upright.
The blanket slipped off, exposing her highly seductive, completely naked body to the cool air.
The sudden movement immediately triggered a sharp, tearing pain between her legs, instantly forcing her to remember exactly what had transpired just hours ago.
Staring at the distinct red handprints bruising the peaks of her breasts, vivid memories of the incident came flooding back to Kaya.
Recalling the highly erotic, intensely shameful scenes, those large hands roaming wildly all over her body, and the overwhelming waves of sheer pleasure brought on by that blazing hot, impossibly thick object ruthlessly pounding deep inside her…
For a moment, Kaya’s brain completely short-circuited, and she sat there utterly stunned.
Sinan’s seventh ability, the Outer Path, solely functioned to intensely amplify a female’s sexual desires; it wasn’t a memory-wiping drug.
Kaya remembered every single shameful detail of the sex session perfectly.
Looking back on it now, she felt impossibly shameless.
To think she had actively thrown herself at and seduced a boy she had only met twice…
the overwhelming shame made Kaya wish the floor would swallow her whole.
Remembering every single explicit detail, Kaya’s face flushed a deep crimson, and tears began falling uncontrollably from her eyes.
Did she hate Sinan?
Thinking of Sinan’s flawlessly handsome face and the intense, mind-melting pleasure he had given her—not to mention the fact that she was the one who aggressively initiated it—Kaya truly couldn’t bring herself to hate him.
But to say she didn’t hate him…
she felt incredibly lost.
According to her strict upbringing, such intimate acts should only ever happen after two people formally get to know each other, fall deeply in love, and get married.
Yet, Sinan had completely bypassed all of that and done that to her.
Sinan was undoubtedly insanely handsome, but Kaya wasn’t some incredibly loose woman who would fall madly in love and surrender her body just from looking at a handsome face.
Kaya didn’t actually feel any guilt toward Usopp; after all, the two of them had absolutely never progressed into a romantic relationship.
In the original story, it was only because Usopp actively protected Kaya from Captain Kuro that her feelings evolved from simple friendship into genuine romantic love.
But this time, it was Sinan who had saved both Kaya and Merry.
In Kaya’s eyes right now, Usopp was nothing more than a highly cherished, close friend.
However, Kaya didn’t have time to sit there and cry.
Thinking of Sinan naturally reminded her of Klahadore.
She desperately needed to handle the horrifying reality regarding Captain Kuro and the incoming pirate invasion.
Kaya hastily got out of bed.
Although sharp pains radiated from her lower body with every step, she was shocked to realize her body felt vastly stronger and more energetic than it had in years.
This was the ultimate benefit of dual cultivating with Sinan.
The Outer Path was an ability that literally converted sexual pleasure into permanent physical enhancements.
Down at the coast, the battle had already begun.
Unlike the chaotic mess in the original story where they frantically ran back and forth between slopes, and without the terrifying presence of Captain Kuro interfering, having the vastly overpowered Sinan on their side made dealing with the pirate grunts ridiculously easy.
“Quake Punch!” CRACK!
BOOM!
The very air shattered like glass, the earth violently fractured, and a terrifying shockwave swept out, blasting everything away.
“Lightning Fist!” BOOM!
Searing bolts of lightning blasted directly from his palm.
Thunder clapped violently in the air as the electricity accurately pierced straight through the bodies of multiple pirates.
Sinan spammed Quake Punches with one hand and Lightning Fists with the other.
Every single time he threw a punch, the ground either violently collapsed as pirates were blasted into the sky by shockwaves, or they were struck directly by high-voltage lightning, dying instantly from cardiac arrest.
Nami and Usopp simply stood on the sidelines and watched.
Zoro and Luffy were also performing exceptionally well.
“Gum-Gum Gatling!” “Three-Sword Style: Slash!” Luffy’s rubber fists sent a pirate flying with every single punch, and with a single swing of Zoro’s Three-Sword Style, an entire massive group of pirates was instantly cut down.
The only reason they struggled so much in the original story was due to a series of comedic accidents: Zoro didn’t have his swords, and Luffy was put to sleep by a hypnotist.
If they fought completely seriously right from the start, even double the number of enemies would mean absolutely nothing.
Most of the time, the reason the Straw Hats always got into such hilarious, absurdly dangerous situations was simply because, before they seriously entered “Combat Mode,” they acted so stupid that even a stray dog could probably take a bite out of them.
Even with the hypnotist Jango and the highly capable Nyaban Brothers, the Black Cat Pirates’ crew of over a hundred men lasted barely a few minutes against the massacre.
Seeing all the pirates completely defeated, Nami and Usopp cheered joyfully.
“Yeah!!” Surveying the devastated battlefield, Sinan couldn’t help but frown slightly.
The pirates hit by the massive AoE of his Quake Punches were mostly fine, suffering only severe concussions and internal bruising.
However, the vast majority of the pirates struck directly by his lightning bolts had died completely from instant cardiac arrest.
Compared to Sinan’s massive body count, Luffy and Zoro’s attacks had resulted in essentially zero fatalities.
It was glaringly obvious that Luffy and Zoro had deliberately held back, while Sinan had become the most lethal, ruthless killer on the battlefield.
Pirates were almost entirely vicious scum.
Sinan truly didn’t understand how Luffy and his crew thought.
In the original story, Kuro was merely beaten up and then allowed to flee right back out to sea to continue his atrocities.
And Arlong, the bastard who brutally murdered Nami’s adoptive mother and enslaved her village, wasn’t killed either!
He was merely beaten up and thrown into prison!
In this current scenario, Sinan had inadvertently become the most ruthless and cold-blooded person among them.
With all the pirates defeated, Nami eagerly rushed over.
Taking one look at Sinan, Nami immediately signaled that she was heading straight to the pirate ship to loot all their treasure.
“Nami, wait a second.
There might still be guards on the ship.
Let me go with you!” Sinan offered.
“Then hurry up!” Thinking entirely about the massive pile of treasure on the ship, Nami urged impatiently.
Looking at the massive pirate galleon anchored offshore, Sinan asked Nami, “Nami, what do you think is the absolute most valuable thing on that ship?” Hearing Sinan’s question, Nami’s eyes instantly lit up brilliantly.
“The pirate ship itself!” Nami declared, her eyes instantly turning into giant $$ symbols.
“Exactly!” Sinan nodded in strong agreement, adding, “If we take this massive ship and sell it, it’s worth at least 50,000,000 Berries.
We might even be able to get a solid 100,000,000 Berries for it!” Hearing the astronomical figure of 100,000,000 Berries, Nami was so overwhelmingly happy she nearly passed out on the spot.
However, a firm voice of opposition suddenly echoed from directly behind Sinan: “No way!” Hearing someone actually dare to oppose her making money, Nami instantly jumped into the air, screaming, “Why not?!” Nami glared at Luffy with eyes burning with absolute fury.
If Luffy didn’t give her a perfectly logical explanation right this second, she was going to punch his face in.
“Because these ships belong to them!
A ship is a pirate’s crewmate!” Luffy replied with absolute, unwavering resolve.
