Hunting Baroque Works

Mikita

"This is an Alabasta custom."

"No matter where we go, we should experience the local customs properly. Otherwise, there'd be no point in traveling around the world."

Lin Yu made it up casually, speaking in a tone that brooked no doubt.

"Tch, I think you just want to see us wearing dancer outfits."

Reiju looked completely unconvinced.

"I think it's pretty nice."

Nojiko grinned and spun around. Her skirt twirled, perfectly showcasing her slender waist.

She was already bold and uninhibited by nature. Now that she wore an Alabasta dancer outfit, she looked even more alluring and dazzling.

Nojiko's graceful figure made Anna and Charloss beside her green with envy.

Neither of them had any objections to Lin Yu's arrangements. They even hoped to become as charming as Nojiko.

"Hahaha, you saw through me."

Hearing Reiju's words, Lin Yu burst into laughter and nodded in direct admission.

"Pervert!"

Seeing his shameless expression, Makino and the others spat in unison.

"Alright, now that we're ready, let's set out."

After saying that, Lin Yu placed a hand on the God Slave and stored it in the Extra-Dimensional Storage Box.

After his mental strength increased, his storage box could hold increasingly larger objects.

"That's amazing."

Kaya looked at Lin Yu, her eyes sparkling.

"I can't do that yet."

Makino looked at Lin Yu, feeling deeply discouraged.

At most, she could only store half of the God Slave.

"Of course."

Anna looked proud.

"Let's go."

After mounting the camels they had bought in advance, Lin Yu led the group toward Yuba, Alabasta's western trade center.

After searching for an entire day,

they finally found the Coffee Shop run by the Baroque Works members.

"Be careful."

Makino gave them a reminder, then summoned a semi-transparent storage box that enveloped Nojiko, Kaya, and herself.

This was a new function of the Box-Box Fruit she had discovered. It could serve as a defensive shield.

"Mm."

Nodding, Lin Yu led Reiju, Anna, and Charloss toward the Coffee Shop in the distance.

When they reached the door, the four pushed it open and entered.

"Who are you?!"

Mr.5, the explosive man who was wiping down tables inside the Coffee Shop, looked at the four people entering. As he questioned them in confusion, he casually flicked a booger he had picked out toward their feet.

Lin Yu looked at the flying booger with disgust and kicked it back toward Mr.5's face.

This is bad.

Seeing the booger flying back, Mr.5 inwardly cried out in alarm.

Boom!

A violent explosion rang out, blasting Mr.5 into a daze.

The explosion could not hurt Mr.5, but the blast going off right in his face still left the unprepared man reeling.

The next second, Reiju appeared behind Mr.5 and cuffed him with the Sea Stone Handcuffs in her hand.

"Sea Stone..."

With his hands cuffed, Mr.5 immediately collapsed limply to the ground, cold sweat streaming down his forehead.

Looking at Mr.5, who had originally intended to use his ability to launch a surprise attack, Lin Yu chuckled.

Mr.5 had wanted to ambush him, never expecting Lin Yu to know his ability inside out. Lin Yu had turned the tables and caught him completely off guard.

Walking up to the limp Mr.5, Lin Yu raised his pistol.

Bang!

The war Baroque Works had incited in Alabasta alone had caused the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians.

And as a core member of Baroque Works who had helped ignite the Alabasta war, Lin Yu would not show him mercy.

Not just him—even if Crocodile were here, Lin Yu would kill him without hesitation.

Ding! Baroque Works member Mr.5 has been killed. You may automatically obtain his Bounty, or forfeit the treasure to obtain his Devil Fruit.

Without hesitation, Lin Yu directly chose to pay money and obtain his Devil Fruit.

"There's another one here."

"The other one ran away."

Reiju checked the other rooms in the building and dragged out the trembling MISS Goldenweek, handing her over to Anna and Charloss.

Then, she rushed out of the building, flew into the air, and chased after the drifting MISS Valentine Mikita.

"D-Don't kill me."

MISS Goldenweek glanced at Mr.5, whose head had been blown apart by a single shot, and turned pale.

Though she was Mr.3's partner, she was actually very timid.

You're a legal loli. How could I possibly kill you?

Lin Yu looked at the petite MISS Goldenweek Marianne and smiled slightly.

Though MISS Goldenweek looked small, she was actually only one year younger than Luffy.

"Where are the others?"

Lin Yu looked at the captured Golden Week and asked with a smile.

"Sarah went out to buy something. Doropie is with the others next door..."

After glancing again at Mr.5's miserable corpse, MISS Goldenweek obediently confessed.

Before Golden Week could finish, Reiju came in carrying the unconscious MISS Valentine Mikita.

Seeing Mikita in Reiju's hand, Lin Yu smiled.

Mikita was tall and stunningly beautiful. Even within Baroque Works, she had quite a sizeable fan club. She was an absolute beauty.

Moreover, she was arrogant and conceited, making her very suitable for training.

"Anna, Charloss, you two deal with the people next door."

Lin Yu instructed Anna and Charloss, then looked at Golden Week with a smile. "Take us to Sarah."

Sarah was actually the Thorn Woman, MISS Doublefinger.

And the people next door were naturally that fat man and the Mole Woman.

"O-Okay."

MISS Goldenweek nodded obediently.

Anna and Charloss released her and headed outside to find their respective targets.

Ding! Baroque Works member killed...

Ding! Baroque Works member killed...

Ding! Mr.4's dachshund killed...

Not long after, Lin Yu received the System Prompts, and two Devil Fruits appeared in his hands.

One was a Zoan Devil Fruit.

The other was also a Zoan Devil Fruit.

The former was the Mole Fruit belonging to the Mole Woman.

The latter was the Dog-Dog Fruit in the dachshund form, belonging to Mr.4's beloved gun, Lassoo.

Lin Yu casually placed both Devil Fruits into the Extra-Dimensional Storage Box. Then, carrying MISS Goldenweek while Reiju carried the unconscious MISS Valentine, they joined up with Makino and the others.

"Big Brother Lin Yu, she's so small. You didn't capture the wrong person, did you?"

Kaya looked at the MISS Goldenweek in Lin Yu's hand and spoke in astonishment.

Makino and Nojiko beside her nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Before coming here, Lin Yu had told them that their targets this time were Baroque Works members who had incited the Alabasta war and caused the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians.

Kaya, Makino, and the others naturally had no objections toward such heinous people. They even strongly approved.

But seeing what MISS Goldenweek looked like now, all three of them were somewhat surprised.

It was not their fault. MISS Goldenweek was only 145 centimeters tall and had a very youthful face, making her incredibly deceptive. Most people would think she was merely a well-behaved child.

Little did they know that, in Lin Yu's eyes, MISS Goldenweek's ability was the most terrifying among the Baroque Works members.

Lin Yu had long expected Kaya and the others' reaction. He lifted the little girl in his hand, gave her a shake, and smiled.

"Kaya, she's only one year younger than you. She's not a child."

"Don't let her fool you."
