"How does it feel?!" Reyno asked, his face full of anticipation, after The girls had finished eating one after another.
"The wind, I can hear the wind outside," Kaya was the first to exclaim in surprise.
"I hear it too," Makino's large eyes were equally bright.
"My perception is much stronger than before."
The girls successively gave their feedback, all astonished.
"My hand, my hand turned black," a surprised cry suddenly rang out.
The girls looked at Nami; her originally fair hand was now pitch black.
"It's so hard," Nojiko reached out and pinched it, but couldn't budge it at all.
It was like a piece of steel.
Reyno used the island cloud to elementalize his arm. "Come and try it."
Nami understood, reached out to grab Reyno's arm, and gripped it. "I really grabbed it."
Nami looked at the island cloud in her hand in disbelief; she had really grabbed Reyno's main body.
"So that's how it is."
Tashigi, who was slow to catch on, suddenly realized; she finally understood why Reyno was able to attack Smoker that day.
It was because of Haki.
"From now on, as long as you practice diligently, both Observation Haki and Armament Haki will become stronger and stronger."
"Nami, Tashigi, especially you two, you must not be negligent in your training. When we reach the Grand Line, I must see progress from both of you," Reyno said seriously.
Nami stuck out her tongue. "Got it."
"Captain, I will work hard," Tashigi responded with an equally serious attitude.
Reyno had helped her so much, she absolutely couldn't let down Reyno's expectations.
Reyno nodded in satisfaction; he also had no choice.
After entering the Grand Line, they would encounter more and more strong individuals, so they had to have a sense of crisis.
The entire Pirate Crew couldn't rely on him alone.
"Kaya, Carmen, Makino, Nojiko, you can follow your own situations. Just practice in your free time; it will also be beneficial for you."
The four girls were non-combat personnel and had clear divisions of labor within the Pirate Crew, so Reyno wouldn't force them.
Just having some self-preservation ability was enough.
The four girls nodded obediently.
"Oh, right," Reyno suddenly looked at Nami. "Nami, I need to see you alone tonight."
"Huh?!" Nami checked the date and asked, puzzled, "It's Wednesday today, shouldn't we be playing Dou Dizhu?!"
At the mention of Dou Dizhu, Nojiko and Makino instantly lowered their heads shyly.
They wondered where Reyno came up with so many different games.
When there were three people, it was called Dou Dizhu.
When there were four people, it was called Mahjong.
When there were six people, it was called Gou Ji.
What about when there were seven or eight people in the future?!
"I have serious business, what are you all thinking?!"
Reyno straightened his face and made a gesture to raise his hand, scaring The girls into quickly fleeing.
As they left, Kaya and the other girls gave Nami a teasing look.
Perhaps Reyno really had serious business, but a man and a woman alone in a room, especially with a beauty like Nami, they didn't believe Reyno would be so well-behaved.
Night gradually fell, and the moon hung high.
Nami's room.
Reyno gently pushed the door open.
As soon as he entered, he saw Nami completely wrapped in a blanket, with a mix of complex emotions—restraint, apprehension, and panic—etched on her face.
Reyno was speechless.
"How many times have I taught you? Is there a need to act like you're guarding against a thief?!"
Nami remained silent, but her face grew even redder.
She pulled back the blanket.
Reyno's eyes immediately widened.
How seductive!
No wonder Nami was so unusual today.
She must have bought it in Loguetown.
Who said my Nami only bickered with me? This is quite thoughtful.
Reyno stepped forward and playfully hooked Nami's nose. "How many sets did you buy?!"
Nami lowered her head shyly and whispered, "Many… all different styles… maid outfits, nurse uniforms, everything."
By the end, Nami's voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
Even Reyno couldn't hear it clearly.
Alright, she's quite well-prepared.
Nami had completely figured out this little preference of men.
"In the future, teach Kaya and the others more; their understanding in this area is too slow," Nami pouted, giving Reyno a glance, but still nodded obediently.
She wondered what it would be like for the refined Kaya to wear a maid outfit.
Ahem, getting off-topic.
"Reyno, what was the serious business you mentioned today?!" Nami tried her best to suppress her desire to learn.
"We'll talk about that later. First, I'll teach you a new navigation technique, the 'Digit Reversal Style'."
With a beauty in his arms, Reyno couldn't care less about anything else.
He had to complete today's task first.
It was the usual four hours again.
Unlike before, in this session, Reyno had a new experience.
Besides being seductive, Nami skillfully used the newly acquired navigation technique.
Coupled with the assistance of the Hand of the Tide.
In a word, superb.
"Can you tell me what the matter is now?!"
With the Healing Power activated, Nami was fully revived.
There was no other way; if she didn't use the Healing Power, she probably wouldn't even have the strength to speak right now.
Reyno no longer kept her in suspense and took out a conqueror's haki fruit.
Unlike the previous two, this Devil Fruit was red.
"Another Devil Fruit?!" Nami gasped in surprise.
Since joining the Pirate Crew, she had already eaten three Devil Fruits, something many people never saw in their entire lives.
"Do you remember what I told you about Conqueror's Haki?!"
Nami nodded, recalling carefully:
"You said that Conqueror's Haki is one in a million, and anyone who possesses Conqueror's Haki is a strong individual."
"You also said that Conqueror's Haki cannot be learned through training and can only be awakened naturally."
Nami recounted Reyno's original words.
"What a good memory," Reyno pecked Nami's cheek as a reward.
"Eat this, and you'll awaken Conqueror's Haki."
Nami didn't immediately take the Devil Fruit, but instead asked cautiously, "Do my sisters have them?!"
Reyno shook his head. "This is my favoritism towards you, understand?!"
Nami wrinkled her delicate nose, so touched that she almost shed tears.
But she pushed the Devil Fruit back. "If my sisters don't have it, I won't eat it either."
Reyno looked at Nami with great surprise, and for the first time, he felt a different emotion towards Nami.
Immediately after, he explained the true reason to Nami.
Only then did Nami eat the Devil Fruit without any burden.
At this point, Nami had awakened all Three Types of Haki!
