As soon as Karina stepped outside, she saw the little girl on Toth's arm. Curious, she walked over and looked at Baby5, her eyes immediately filled with suspicion: "Are you Baby5?"

“Yes, it’s me, Karina.”

A smile appeared on Baby5's face, which greatly surprised Karina. She reached out and pinched Baby5's cheek, then pinched her Wood Spirit dress.

He then noticed that she was only wearing this one piece of clothing, and looked at Thoth with suspicion in his eyes:

"How did she get so small?"

Sauron and Bagges stared in disbelief, then quickly walked over, exchanged a glance, and both were equally shocked.

"Alright, this isn't important. Dinner's almost ready."

At this point, Tot looked at Karina and smiled, "After dinner, why don't you take Baby5 to town to buy some clothes?"

Karina nodded, looking at Thoth with curiosity in her eyes, "Can I shrink like her? It sounds like it would be quite interesting."

"It's probably not possible right now, but if your life return reaches the cellular level of control, you can adjust your body shape within a certain range."

Alternatively, you could team up with Baby5 and experience a limited-edition version of their childlike, loli-like state.

Karina's eyes lit up, and she immediately looked at Baby5, a pleased smile playing on her lips: "Then it's settled!"

Baby5 frowned slightly, looking at Tote with a questioning gaze. Tote smiled and said:

"You can decide for yourself."

Baby5 blinked, looked at Karina with a smile, and said, "I sensed Thoth's presence on you. But it doesn't feel like the one between us."

"Us?" Karina's eyes narrowed slightly.

I hadn't noticed it before, but now that I've activated my Observation Haki, I immediately sensed the difference in Baby5. She's been fused with Thoth's Wood Spirit clone all day long, but now she's resonating with the unique aura of Thoth within Baby5's body.

A thousand thoughts raced through his mind, swirling around Tyrfong's aura. And since she was a Weapon-Weapon Fruit user, had she become Thoth's personal weapon?

Can humans do it too? Or is it due to the special circumstances of Weapon-Weapon Fruit users?

Karina blinked, looking at Thoth with a questioning gaze, "May I?"

Putting Baby5 down, Thoth pinched her cheek and laughed, "Pure biological organisms probably won't work; reshaping the life force is no simple matter."

Seeing this, Karina's eyes showed a hint of regret. "Then forget it. Anyway, I have your Wood Spirit clone."

A moment later,

After breakfast, Toth looked at everyone at the table and announced something.

"Nami, Carina, you two get ready and make us a special pirate flag!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of everyone at the table varied.

Nojiko's eyes showed doubt, while Burgess, Van Augur, Johnny, Joseph, and Zoro simply looked up at Thoth with curiosity.

We await Thoth's next answer.

They didn't really care too much about being pirates.

Tiger Girl glanced at Tote, then buried her head in the food bowl and ate meat heartily.

Karina's eyes flickered slightly as she considered a possibility, and she glanced at Baby5 without making a sound.

Nami tilted her head slightly, looking at Thoth with a grin, "Have you finally decided?"

Thoth nodded with a smile, "I had a feud with Du Feld before. That guy has banks all over the world and probably has connections with officials at all levels of the world government. It's not an exaggeration to say that he has influence in both the underworld and the legitimate world."

This time, with the intervention of the Shichibukai Doflamingo, I have seriously offended him.

Even if he can't find me, I won't be afraid of him at all. Since they can't do anything about it directly, they might resort to some underhanded tactics in secret.

One highly probable possibility is that they will use their own energy to smear us, making us a target for the Navy... that is, pirates.

Rather than being reactive later, we should prepare for all eventualities first.

Thoth's analysis was well-reasoned and supported by evidence, and neither of them were simple-minded individuals.

Thoth believed they would understand.

"What?! They can influence the World Government's decisions?!"

Johnny, Joseph, and Bagges all wore expressions of rage. *Bang!* Bagges slammed his hand on the table, grinning menacingly.

"Damn bastards, although I don't mind becoming a pirate, they just wait, I'll cut their heads off and stuff them up their asses sooner or later."

Thoth rubbed his forehead, realizing he was wrong; there really were brainless brutes.

Van Augur looked speechless, Zoro looked disgusted, and Nami glanced at Burgess with a twitch in her eye: "I understand you're angry, but why did you slam your fist on the table?"

Karina chuckled and said, "If you slam the table now, will you flip it over later?"

Nokiko said with a smile, "You'll be in charge of washing the dishes later."

A hint of unease flickered in Baby5's eyes as she sat next to Tote. Tote turned to look at her, ruffled her hair, and then smiled brightly at everyone present.

"A lawless person like me will eventually become a pirate, so since you're already on my ship, you'll have no choice but to share the joys and sorrows with me!"

Nami and the others smiled and remained silent, while Johnny Joseph looked proud and even began to fantasize about how much bounty he would have.

Van Augur chuckled lightly: "My fate has long been intertwined with yours, through thick and thin."

"Haha! Pirates? That's not bad, boss. Shall we aim to become the Pirate King?"

"Hmph! Pirates? The world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye, is also a pirate. If I want to surpass him and become the world's greatest swordsman, becoming a pirate first isn't so bad."

That way, I can cut down all those swordsmen in the navy at will!

Zoro, with his green hair, grinned, a defiant smile appearing in his eyes.

The morale and spirit are full of vigor.

Looking at the team he had assembled, Thoth's smile widened. "Not bad. It seems none of you are afraid. You truly are the genius partners I personally selected."

As soon as the words were spoken, bright smiles appeared on their faces. Thoth's approval made them feel genuinely pleased.

Zoro smiled at Thoth:

"Tote, as the captain, you are our backbone, so you should hand over any future opponents to us first."

I'm not greedy. If we encounter swordsmen in the future, just leave them all to me to handle!

It is my duty as the swordsman on board to share the captain's burdens.

"Pshaw! Green algae head, you're really shrewd. Why should I give it to you? I can crush them myself."

Burgess's passion for battle made him immediately realize Zoro's cunning.

The two then started arguing again.

Zoro was so angry he was about to draw his sword, while Burgess clenched his fists, his arms adorned with tough, dark blue-black Kodama bracers.

This is the combat protective gear that Thoth conjured for him a few days ago; the wrist guards are just as tough as high-strength alloys.

Thoth chuckled and shook his head, too lazy to bother with these two idiots, and turned to look at Van Augur: "How's your learning of the clockwork technology here going?"

Van Oka has been showing great enthusiasm for learning about clockwork gear technology these days.

"It will be completed in a couple of days. The technology here is very advanced and powerful, which will be of great help to me in upgrading my firearms."

Van Augur said with a smile.

"Then let's stay here for a few more days," Toth said.

That's all for now. Next, some of the Thoth members will go to cultivate, while others will go out to fight. Everyone will have something to do.

Thoth took some time to contact Merka via Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter), asking him to send someone to keep an eye on the recent activity in the underground black market.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Everything was normal during these three days, and all the necessary purchases and arrangements on the ship had been completed.

Everyone has moved into their rooms on the Wood Spirit, as for the Wavebreaker...

Karina added it to her card slots to use as a secondary ship, just in case.

During these three days, he trained with Nami and the others, and regularly combined with Karina and the others. Even Baby5's body became perfect through the Smooth-Smooth Fruit's power.

Thoth has also helped her activate and awaken the dual-colored domineering aura.

Furthermore, Thoth discovered during his training that the Weapon Fruit's ability made Baby 5's body very easy to use with various weapons.

With the abundant life essence absorbed, the little girl's body is recovering day by day.

As a result, her physical strength is also rapidly increasing.

Under Thoth's guidance, baby5 was like a dried-up sponge, quickly absorbing the various combat techniques Thoth taught her.

It was nine o'clock in the morning that day.

The Wood Spirit descends to the dark harbor below the island via the island's massive elevator.

The ship departed the island amidst the warm farewells of the island's residents.

The sun was shining brightly, and the sea breeze was cool.

With its sails fully extended, the Wood Spirit sped toward the town of Loguetown.

……

On the vast ocean, laughter and joy filled the air aboard the Wood Spirit, where Karina showcased her beautiful singing voice.

Unlike the comfort of the others, some people were quite uncomfortable.

About half a day earlier, on that unnamed deserted island.

Under the dim light of the sky.

A man wearing a pink feather coat descended from the sky onto the island.

Soon, they found Rao G and Buffalo, both with weakened auras, who were present there.

Upon seeing the two men's miserable state, Doflamingo's face turned extremely grim, and he held three Vivre Cards in his hand.

"I'm sorry, young master, not only has the mission failed, but I've also made you come in person..."

Three days passed, and as they searched for wild animals on the island to replenish their nutrition, a faint trace of color gradually returned to the gaunt faces of Rao and G.

Doflamingo waved his hand to interrupt him, his gaze becoming calm, but beneath that calm lay ferocity and violence: "You are my family. If something happens to you, of course I have to come and check on you myself."

As he spoke, he looked at Buffalo, who had always been fat since childhood but had now become a skinny stick, and his eyes twitched:

"Can it still fly now?"
