Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

But it was too late. Luffy instantly closed in on her, and his hands coiled around Vivi's body like a snake. The king cobra from last night didn't just charge; it also used its body's advantage to entangle its opponent and then use a strangulation technique, which was quite powerful.

[Rubber, Snake Dumplings]

Vivi's body seemed to be tightly bound by a rope, which went around her neck and tied knots at her collarbone, the middle of her chest, her sternum, and her pubic bone.

After passing under the crotch, it is fixed at the corresponding position on the back, then loops back under the armpits to the chest to form a diamond shape, and finally tightens at the waist to complete the binding.

Luffy even invented a catchy name for this method of binding.

Snake Armor Binding.

As a special agent, Vivi was certainly familiar with this method of binding, and she had even used it on some women. She never imagined that one day the boomerang would hit her.

Moreover, unlike the coldness of ropes, the warmth of the fabric binding Weiwei instantly softened her body.

"Let me go!"

"Stop arguing, you're already a prisoner." Luffy said dismissively.

"What exactly do you want to do?!" Weiwei had a bad feeling.

"I just wanted to conduct an experiment. Don't worry, you won't die," Luffy said, pulling Vivi closer to himself.

"I won't let you get away with this!" Vivi shouted.

Luffy ignored it, realizing it wouldn't do any good.

Seeing Vivi still struggling and screaming, Luffy slapped her. He had to control his strength, otherwise, while his power was enough to shatter rocks, it was impossible for him to feel no pain at all—wouldn't that be equivalent to stroking her?

"what!!!"

Vivi's tears were almost overflowing from her eyes; her ominous premonition had come true.

[Nika's approval rating: 1.9%]

it works.

Luffy's eyes lit up.

The harder something is to obtain, the more precious it becomes. Nika had spent so much time without even seeing a sound, and he was starting to get impatient to get his hands on it.

"You bastard! Pervert, shameless, disgusting..." Weiwei turned around, her eyes filled with tears, looking pitiful, but her voice was vicious.

"What are you talking about? We're enemies!" Luffy retorted without hesitation, striking again.

Mercy to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

He does many things based on his own preferences and is not constrained by them.

It's like encountering the Navy and pirates; if they fight, one punch is all it takes to see if they live or die, depending on how tough they are.

Giving it your all is the best way to repay your opponent.

.....

It is visibly slowing down the rate at which recognition is increasing.

Is it because of too many times that the sensitive period has turned into a period of numbness?

【it's over】

Vivi felt like she had lost control of her body; she had never suffered such humiliation before!

And who knows what even more outrageous things that perverted Straw Hat Boy might do next.

He's a pirate!

She gritted her teeth, then her expression hardened.

"I won't let you succeed!"

Luffy's expression changed. He hadn't expected Vivi to bite her tongue. Fortunately, his Observation Haki was fast enough, but he couldn't think of a better way to deal with it, so he put his hand in to block it.

"Hey, are you crazy?"

"Waaaaah!!" Vivi glared fiercely at Luffy, her cheeks puffed out. "If I can't bite your tongue, can't I at least bite your hand?"

"I already said it's just an experiment, what's the rush?"

Before he could finish speaking, Luffy gasped, as it brought back some unpleasant memories.

Why do these women all like to bite people? Are they dogs?

Vivi felt a little relieved when she saw Luffy's appearance, but the next second, the hand in her mouth was like a stone, almost knocking out her teeth.

Armament Haki!

However, Luffy actually admired Vivi's unyielding attitude.

His original personality was as stubborn as an ox, single-minded as a mule.

At first glance, Weiwei looks almost exactly like her, if not very much.

Luffy glanced at the time left for the crew's day; there was very little left.

Then Vivi heard something that made her question the meaning of life: "Hey, do you want to be my partner?"

Chapter 64 Nami and Vivi's First Meeting

You've turned your partner into someone who's inflexible and has no direction, and now you're actually inviting me to be your partner?!

Vivi glared fiercely at Luffy, determined not to compromise!

Besides, she's a princess of the Alabasta Kingdom, how could she possibly become a pirate?

"Hey, you're putting me in a difficult position," Luffy said, scratching his head.

"Luffy, do you need my help?"

Merry, who had obediently closed her eyes and covered them with her hands, spoke at this moment.

Although she kept covering her eyes as Luffy told her to, Luffy never said she had to cover them completely!

So Merry quietly opened a crack and took in everything that was happening.

"Do you have any ideas, Merry?"

"Like this, and then like this..."

Weiwei stared wide-eyed at the two whispering to each other, her waist twisting wildly in fear, her long, white legs kicking futilely beneath her skirt.

Humans are most afraid of the unknown.

The more harmless a person seems, the more terrifying they are.

Vivi looked at the adorable little girl, Melly, and became even more frightened, her delicate skin breaking out in goosebumps.

"Waaaaah!!"

The tone of their voices was somewhat fearful.

"My patience is limited." Luffy's voice turned cold, as did his expression.

This is what Merry called the indifference effect.

It can instill fear in people, leading them to compromise.

Although Luffy felt that this was not quite in line with his usual style, he couldn't think of any other way.

You said it's like Zoro and Sanji, if we were more forceful, we could just take them away.

However, Luffy has little experience dealing with women.

Just like when Uta rejected him, Luffy couldn't do anything about it.

Nami is different.....

Seeing that there was no progress, if Vivi had agreed, there should have been a notification that he had recruited partners by now...

There's no other way. Let's proceed to the next step as Merry suggested. Luffy said, "Close your eyes again."

Vivi: "???"

She watched as Merry obediently closed her eyes again, but then noticed that her fingers were still slightly parted, and she immediately sensed something was wrong.

"I see enemies and allies as two different kinds of beings. I will show no mercy to enemies!"

Luffy raised his hand again, this time without any mercy.

"Ughhh!!"

Vivi was in so much pain that she was drenched in sweat. Her white shirt was soaked with sweat and clung tightly to her back, revealing her delicate skin.

"Does this really work?"

"There probably are..."

Luffy and Merry, who was peeking through a crack, exchanged a glance.

Merry wasn't sure either; she actually saw it in a book in Nami's bookcase.

They'd already gone this far, there was no stopping them. So Luffy raised his arm high, then lowered it again.

"Ouch!" Vivi's body writhed wildly in Luffy's hands, her little feet kicking wildly in pain, her body trembling. She had never suffered such torture before.

The torment is both physical and psychological, and you can't even die if you want to.

After being hit again, Weiwei's eyes lost their luster. In a daze, all the muscles in her body spasmed in pain, and saliva dripped from the corner of her mouth.

After several encounters, Luffy began to admire Vivi, and her personality made him even more eager to recruit her as a crewmate.

I love this kind of personality!

Luffy, who was initially recruited passively by Nika, now has a glimmer of hope in his eyes when he looks at Vivi.

"Hey, you're so persistent, there must be something you want to accomplish, right?"
