One Piece:The Lust System

Chapter 131: [130] A Beautiful Sunset



[2000 Words]

[After half an hour.]

Ren was in a remote desert area in Alabasta, with nothing in sight but the barren, wild desert. The golden grains of sand shimmered under the scorching sun beating down on his face.

A few minutes ago, Ren had finished his brief meeting with his crew members after defining each of their roles.

Starting with the first member, Nojiko, she was the sniper, and the reason was clear: her weapon was a modern sniper rifle equipped with Sea Stone bullets, making it a deadly weapon.

Next was Nami, the navigator, whose role had been established a few months ago, so there was no need to discuss the reason.

Then came Kaya, the ship's doctor, whose medical skills had rapidly improved thanks to the Devil Fruit she had eaten.

Following her was Mikita, the blonde girl who puzzled Ren; he wasn't sure which position to assign her. After deep consideration, he decided to make her the crew's fighter.

This meant her primary duty would be to fight. In any battle or war the Pirates of Sin entered, Mikita would be at the forefront.

Next was Vivi, the blue-haired princess, whom Ren decided would remain in Alabasta and not sail with them; she was the crew's second fighter.

Why did Ren assign her this role? Simply because her strength was rising at a rapid pace. She had consumed the Sand Fruit extracted from Crocodile that Ren had killed with poison, in addition to mastering Shave, Moonwalk, and Iron Body.

She hadn't mastered Haki yet, but her strength had shown significant development.

After that was Robin, whom Ren appointed as the archaeologist, making her extremely happy. Before the last member was Zala, whom Ren decided to make the "Strategic Defender," promising her he would search for a better Devil Fruit to replace her current weak one.

Finally, there was Kalifa. Without hesitation, Ren made her his secretary, which made the blonde woman happy, although she didn't show it on her face. But how could her feelings escape his observation's Haki?

However, there was still one more member, Tashigi. Unfortunately, this girl was not with them at the moment, so he couldn't assign her a position she hadn't determined for herself. After finalizing the assignment of the crew members' roles, Ren checked his inventory and was astonished to discover that he possessed over 5 billion berries!n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Where did all this money come from? First of all, Ren received 1 billion berries from Garp, and he had approximately 1 billion before that. However, during the last war, Ren lost hundreds of millions of berries purchasing medium-level potions. He managed to recoup these losses by defeating numerous pirates in the war and claiming half of the bounty on their heads directly. As for the high-profile targets, he earned a substantial sum from them, detailed as follows: 1. Half of Whitebeard's bounty: 2.5 billion berries.

2. Half of Marco's bounty: 687 million berries.

3. Half of Jozu's bounty: 295 million berries.

4. Half of Vista's bounty: 250 million berries.

5. Half of Koriel's bounty: 150 million berries.

Calculating these amounts yields:

687 +2,500 + 295 +250 + 150 = 3.882 billion berries.

When combined with the money he still has and the bounties from the hundreds of pirates he defeated, Ren amassed a fortune estimated at 5 billion berries!

Returning to the present, Ren looked at the vast desert and took a deep breath, sensing energy coursing through his body, conjuring images of Whitebeard and how his power flowed like an explosive river. With each passing moment, his charge grew stronger, as if the very earth was responding to his calls.

"Broken World!"

Ren shouted, directing his hand toward the ground. "Crack!"

At that moment, the ground beneath his feet shook violently, as if struck by lightning. Violent tremors began to sweep through the desert, and deep cracks appeared in the sand, as if rage had erupted from the depths of the earth. Small rocks shattered, and clouds of dust rose into the sky, mingling with the sand, creating a surreal scene.

With each step, the earth shook even more. The sight became a nightmare for the surrounding environment. The rare trees growing at the edges of the desert shook violently, as if dancing in a storm. Small stones left a clear trail in the sand, as if they were walking toward the abyss. In the distant villages of Alabasta, the residents felt the powerful tremors. People trembled in their homes, and distant sounds came like the noise of a storm. "What is this?!" one shouted, their eyes widening in terror. Panic ensued as families rushed outside their homes, searching for safety.

"An earthquake! It's an earthquake!" one man shouted, trying to calm the frightened children. The adults' voices rose, warning them not to go far, but chaos had already spread.

Even residents of distant cities like the capital and the Rainbase felt light tremors, looking toward the distant desert in confusion and fear of the unknown.

As Ren unleashed energy intensely, he slowly felt how his effects extended beyond just a personal experience. "I can affect everyone around me!" he said to himself, noting how the earthquake caused immediate destruction on the horizon.

With every tremor, Ren sensed the tension of the energies around him. He unleashed another strike, directing his power toward a specific point in the desert. "Crack!" he exclaimed, and at that moment, a deafening explosion occurred. Waves of energy shot out, and large sand masses soared into the air, forming clouds of dust resembling small tornadoes.

The cracks in the earth multiplied, and masses of sand exploded under the effect of his power. In a scene of chaos, Ren felt his strength rising, as if the entire world was yielding to his will.

As the desert trembled from violent quakes, Ren began to sense something deeper within him. He realized that this power was not merely a means of destruction but also a tool for defense. However, he needed to master it. "I can't let this power slip away," he whispered, focusing his thoughts on his abilities.

He continued to experiment with the earthquake power, summoning the strength needed to create unique effects. "Sand Wall!" he shouted once more, gathering sand to form a sturdy barrier in front of him. This wall, shaped by his ability to influence the surrounding environment with his tremors, was reminiscent of how Whitebeard used the sea to create tsunamis powerful enough to flood Marineford.

As he finished his experiment, Ren turned to survey the devastation he had caused. "An incredible power, capable of destroying the world. I look forward to awakening this Devil Fruit," he said with a cold smile, suppressing his excitement.

Then he noticed a figure flying toward him and recognized her. "Hello, Captain! Was that your doing? It's amazing!"

He heard Mikita's voice, floating in the air, but now she wasn't using a parachute to assist her flight; instead, she had a pair of white, paper-like wings.

"Mikita, I see you're doing well with your new Devil Fruit powers." When she heard his praise, she smiled brightly. "Kyahaha~ I can barely keep these wings stable, let alone use

them in battle."

She descended to the devastated ground and gazed at the man responsible for all this destruction with deep admiration. Ren noticed her gaze and approached her. "Let's watch the sunset together," Ren suggested, pointing to the sun beginning to set.

"Sure~."

In the heart of the Alabasta desert, where the setting sun cast its orange rays over the sands, Ren stood with Mikita, contemplating the distant horizon. The atmosphere of the desert reflected a strange calm, as if time had stopped. Mikita wore a light dress that danced with the breeze, her hair flowing like golden waves under the sun's rays.

Ren looked at her, his eyes holding a strange light, but there was something different about them this time. "I never imagined a sunset could be this beautiful," Mikita said softly. Ren smiled, a glimmer in his eyes shining like stars in the night sky. "You're right... but at this moment, in front of me is something even more beautiful than the sunset." "W-What..." Mikita blushed at his words, and to her surprise, Ren took slow, steady steps closer to her, looking into her bright green eyes.

"Mikita, I've said it before, but I'll say it again: I want you." His voice resonated deeply in Mikita's mind, and his strong, commanding tone made her body tremble with excitement and love. Butterflies of joy and affection filled her stomach.

"Um... C-Captain..." Her trembling voice was a clear sign of her deep embarrassment, but Ren quickly interrupted her: "How many times have I told you not to call me Captain when we're

-alone-"

"!!!"

Mikita suddenly stepped forward, closing the distance between them until her face was right in front of Ren's.

He was taken aback by her movement, but before he could speak, she pulled his head toward

her. Their lips met, igniting a passionate kiss that was both deep and intense. The kiss was filled with longing, expressing all the suppressed feelings within her and every desire that had built up over time.

Ren felt her body pressed against him, the warmth of her skin igniting his senses and awakening his primal instincts. In that moment, the sand beneath their feet became just a detail in their small world, as if the entire universe had vanished, leaving only the two of

them.

Mikita responded passionately, her hands wrapping around his neck while Ren's arms encircled her waist, pulling her close to his heart. They felt as if they were discovering each

other, and every touch reflected a deep sense of need and connection.

Their kiss lingered, and in that moment, they explored every part of one another's understanding. Their tongues intertwined, wrapping around each other in a passionate frenzy, as if they were each trying to delve into the depths of the other's soul. The once-quiet

desert was now filled with the sound of their kisses, echoing the melody of their passion that

resonated in the air.

Their breaths intertwined, and their bodies swayed with every movement. Kiss after kiss, the moment carried them far from everything else, as if they were in a private world where unnecessary thoughts had no place, only them and their shared feelings.

They broke the kiss slightly, but their bodies remained intertwined, closer than they had ever known. Ren looked into Mikita's eyes, filled with desire and love, and then spoke with

determination: "I will Have you today, Mikita."

After a brief silence, Mikita replied, her slender arms wrapping around his neck: "P-please, Ren, today... on this night, I want you to make me your woman~!"

Her voice carried a tone of both excitement and fear, as if she knew this moment would not

come again. The words were like a bond tying them together, while the sand beneath their feet bore witness to the birth of a new connection, a connection that had never existed before.
