Nami had once trained like crazy for a period too, but she did it to deal with Arlong.
Tashigi was different—she simply didn't want to let Reno down.
She trained every day, balancing physique, swordsmanship, and Haki, only stopping when she was drenched in sweat.
She was practically the model worker of the Reno Pirates.
"Be careful." Reno didn't stop her; he also wanted to see the results of Tashigi's training.
Tashigi gripped Wado Ichimonji, her hands slightly sweaty from nerves—after all, this was her first time facing over a hundred people.
"Damn it, you dare come here and cause trouble? Kill them!!!"
"Little sister, let big brother teach you a lesson today!!!"
"..."
The bounty hunters had no intention of showing mercy; they swung their weapons and charged at Tashigi.
Tashigi activated Armament Haki, gripping Wado Ichimonji as she met them head-on.
Like a female war goddess, she plunged into the crowd, swinging her blade continuously, cutting down bounty hunters one after another like slicing through vegetables.
For a moment, screams filled the air.
She overwhelmed over a hundred bounty hunters, leaving them utterly helpless.
With Observation Haki and Armament Haki at Full Power, Tashigi was a complete Dimensional Strike.
"Bastard, watch out for her sword!!"
"Save me!!!"
Puchi
Tashigi finished them off again!!
This was what Reno had taught her.
When dealing with enemies, you must never show mercy.
The sounds of slaughter and screams gradually faded. Over a hundred bounty hunters lay cut down by Tashigi, sprawled in pools of blood.
In the distance, Reno nodded in satisfaction.
"Did you take down all these people?!"
Stepping out of the stronghold and seeing this scene, Igaram twitched the corner of his mouth.
A girl who looked so soft and weak was actually this strong?!
Alright, he admitted his earlier assessment of All the Women had been a bit hasty.
Taking down over a hundred bounty hunters single-handedly—he couldn't do that himself.
"Did Well, Tashigi." Nami gave Tashigi a thumbs-up.
Aside from the bloody scene, there was nothing wrong with it.
Kaya stepped forward and used Healing Power to restore the pale-faced Tashigi's stamina.
"Thanks, Kaya." Tashigi took a deep breath, instantly feeling refreshed.
Kaya smiled and nodded.
"Don't celebrate too soon. You're in big trouble." Igaram's expression suddenly changed as something occurred to him.
All the Women looked at him in confusion.
"This is a branch of Baroque Works. If the Senior Agents find out you killed so many people, they won't let you off."
"You'd better leave qui—"
"You mean those two?!!" Reno cut off Igaram's words, his gaze fixed on the street entrance.
Standing there were a man and a woman.
The man wore a coffee-colored coat, with an Explosion Head on Top of His Head, looking like a Rock Singer.
The woman was a Tall Figure in a light yellow dress, holding an umbrella, swaying her Buttocks as she walked.
"You've got some nerve!!!"
Chapter 45: Nami Strikes, Instant Kill of Nose Booger Man! Valentine's Failed Escape! (Request Data)
The two strolled casually toward Vivi, ignoring Reno and All the Women entirely.
After they dealt with Vivi, they'd teach these guys a lesson.
"That's Mr. 5 and his partner, Miss. Valentine."
Vivi recognized them at once.
"Why are you here?!"
The Rock Singer-like Mr. 5 stared blankly at Vivi and said coldly, "To find you, of course, Miss. Wednesday... no, I should call you Princess Vivi."
Damn it, she's been exposed!!
Igaram's face changed drastically, his voice panicked. "Princess Vivi, I'll hold them off—you get out of here now!!!"
With that, he stepped in front of Vivi and pulled several gun barrels out of his blond hair.
Without any hesitation, Igaram pulled the trigger repeatedly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh
Whoosh whoosh whoosh
Countless fire snakes shot out, streaking toward Mr.5 like a raging storm.
"Princess Vivi, leave now!!!"
Igaram roared without looking back.
But while all his attention was fixed on Mr.5, Miss Valentine had somehow risen high into the air, then plummeted down.
"2000 kilograms!!!"
Miss Valentine crashed down from above, slamming heavily onto Igaram.
An immense pressure struck without warning. With a loud thud, Igaram was pinned to the ground, unable to move.
Igaram coughed up blood uncontrollably, feeling like every bone in his body was about to shatter.
"Igaram, are you okay?!!" Vivi quickly crouched down, checking his condition.
"Cough... don't worry, Your Highness, I'm not dead yet... cough..." Igaram replied with a pained expression, struggling to speak.
"Princess Vivi."
Miss Valentine, having landed her blow, floated back into the air with her small umbrella, looking smugly down at Vivi.
"Daring to go undercover right under the Boss's nose—should I praise your courage and cunning, or call you a fool?!!"
"You bastard!!!" Vivi looked up, glaring at Miss Valentine.
"Princess Vivi, your undercover days are over."
After a round of cannon fire, Mr.5 emerged before them completely unharmed.
"Snot Bomb!!!"
With a roar, Mr.5 unceremoniously stuck a finger into his nostril and dug around.
Then, with a flick of his finger, a booger shot rapidly toward Vivi.
As a Bomb Fruit user, he could make any part of his body explode.
Even a booger was no exception.
"Nami!!" A calm voice rang out.
"Cloud Wall!!"
With a boom, a compressed wall of clouds rose from the ground, blocking Vivi's front.
The next second, it collided with the incoming booger, triggering a massive explosion.
"Who attacks with boogers?!!" Nami shot Mr.5 a disgusted look.
Thankfully, her abilities were all long-range—otherwise, this guy would have grossed her to death.
"Huh? Another Devil Fruit user," Mr.5 narrowed his eyes, his expression darkening.
"This is a private matter for Baroque Works. I suggest you mind your own business." Mr.5 issued a warning.
Reno shook his head with a smile and retorted, "Vivi is already a member of the Reno Pirates. Her business is my business. Nami, take him out."
"Captain..." Vivi was stunned, her heart stirred.
When Reno said things like that normally, it didn't affect her much. But at a time like this...
It was really touching, okay?!
"You're asking for death!!!"
Seeing that they ignored his warning, Mr.5 knew words were useless.
"Air Blast!!"
Mr.5 unleashed another killing move, spitting out an air bomb that flew toward Nami.
"First boogers, now bad breath—get lost!!!"
"Lightning Strike!!!"
Nami felt like throwing up.
She went all out.
Rumble Rumble Rumble
Rumble Rumble Rumble
Thick, silver-white lightning bolts fell from the sky without warning.
Dense and numerous, they formed a tight web of fire that sealed off all of Mr.5's escape routes.
Nami had already locked onto Mr. 5 with Observation Haki; no matter where he ran, the lightning pursued him.
The silver-white thunder rumbled and roared, darting wildly through the space like a poisonous snake.
Mr. 5's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly dodged.
But without Observation Haki, he was nothing more than a live target.
In an instant, dozens of thick bolts of lightning struck his body.
Mr. 5 was wreathed in black smoke, his eyes rolling back as he passed out cold.
Still unsatisfied, Nami kept controlling the lightning, wasting none of it as it struck his body again.
He was dead beyond dead.
"Done. Let's see you come out and disgust people again." Nami clapped her hands, wrapping up the job.
"That's really something, Nami." Kaya stared at Nami like she was an idol, clapping her small hands with a sharp crack.
Tashigi was full of envy. "Nami's control over Lightning Power is getting more and more refined. I need to work hard too—I can't afford to fall behind."
"How is this possible?!"
Valentine, who had been arrogant just now, froze on the spot after witnessing Mr. 5's instant kill.
The smile that had been on her face was completely gone, replaced by unprecedented fear.
Lightning Power—that woman actually had Lightning Power.
There was no point in fighting anymore. Time to run!
"I'm done playing with you guys, Princess Vivi. When I get back, I'll be sure to report everything to the Boss."
"And you guys—get ready to face the Boss's wrath!!"
Mid-air, Valentine tossed out a few harsh words and prepared to make a graceful exit.
"Cloud Lock!!" A soft voice rang out.
