Harem Navigation: Starting from Overthrowing Nami

He spoke smoothly enough.

Makino was new to the ship and unfamiliar with its affairs, so he had to teach her some basic navigation skills.

Naive Makino took him at his word and even prepared a little notebook to take notes.

In the end, the lesson dragged on for four hours.

"Damn it, can't you show a little mercy to a lady?!"

Inside the room.

[Congratulations, Host, on successfully recruiting crewmate Makino. Reward available. Claim now?]

The system prompt arrived right on schedule.

Reno ignored it.

Makino lay quietly on the three-meter-wide bed, her cheeks slightly flushed.

She stared at Reno without a word, her eyes full of reproach.

You jerk!!

He said he'd teach her navigation skills.

How did it turn into this?!

"Once you join my Pirate Crew, you're naturally one of mine. Don't worry, I'll treat you well."

Reno soothed Makino gently.

This wasn't sweet talk.

He wasn't the type to eat and wipe his mouth clean.

Once they spent more time together, Makino would come to appreciate his good side.

In truth, even though the process of teaching Makino navigation skills lasted a full four hours, Reno knew there was a clear gap between Makino and Nami's Physical Quality.

So his teaching method differed accordingly.

With someone like Nami, he could keep delivering content continuously, with little rest in between.

But with Makino, he actively slowed the pace, keeping it within what she could handle.

"Mm." Makino replied softly, her voice tinged with exhaustion.

Reno gently closed the door behind him and turned toward Nami's room.

What for?!

To claim the reward, of course!

[Congratulations, Host, on acquiring skill—Teleportation!]

Teleportation?!

Reno's heart surged with joy.

In the fantasy novels he'd read in his past life, Teleportation was a basic ability.

But placed in the Pirate World, it was absolutely a game-breaking existence.

He opened the skill description.

Instant Movement: Within perception range, the Host can ignore obstacles and reach any desired location.

Spatial Transfer: The Host can leave coordinates at visited locations and instantly return to those coordinates, no matter where they are.

In simple terms.

Close range—flash freely. Long range—rely on coordinates.

Reno nodded with satisfaction.

In the Pirate World, many Strong Persons were often described as using Teleportation during battle, but that was just an exaggerated way of saying they were too fast.

Though the naked eye couldn't track them, Observation Haki could still catch their position.

But what Reno had mastered was true Teleportation.

What defined true Teleportation?!

As fast as his thoughts could go, Reno's speed matched.

Even if Observation Haki could lock onto his location, the body still needed reaction time.

In that gap, Reno could already Teleport to Mary Geoise.

Not only that—pairing Teleportation with the Healing Fruit made it nearly impossible to die.

Reno grew more and more eager. Once he recruited all the Plot Beauties, just how much would his strength increase?

By then, he could probably even crush Imu with ease, right?!

No, wait—Imu was female.

Can't kill her. Only chong her.

Night Falls.

At the dining table, Reno, Nami, and Makino sat together.

Nami wolfed down her food without any pretense of manners.

"Slow down, no one's taking it from you," Reno teased.

"Delicious, it's really delicious."

"Sister Makino, your cooking is way better than Reno's."

Nami mumbled through her mouthful.

While praising Makino, she didn't forget to take a jab at Reno.

"Leave out the last part," Reno said, speechless, and flicked Nami on the head.

Wincing in pain, Nami rubbed her forehead, shot Reno a glare, then continued scarfing down her food.

The scene made Makino lower her head with a soft smile.

Though they hadn't known each other long, she felt Reno wasn't like the man she'd seen at the tavern today.

Was it her imagination?!

"Makino, from now on, you'll serve as the Brewer and Cook of the Reno Pirates."

Reno was also surprised—Makino, a brewer, could make meals this tasty, with perfect color, aroma, and flavor.

"No problem."

Makino smiled gently and agreed.

In truth, from the moment she'd agreed to join the Reno Pirates, she had no other choice.

Take things as they come.

Besides, she'd already given her most precious thing to Reno, and she'd accepted him in her heart.

If Reno enjoyed her cooking, she'd be happy.

"Captain, are we going to recruit more crewmates?" Makino, now part of the group, chatted casually.

Right now, there were only three people on the ship, not even meeting the basic setup of a pirate crew.

"That's right." Reno nodded firmly. "Over the next while, we'll visit many places to recruit crewmates."

Hearing this, Nami suddenly looked up and sighed. "Great, I wonder how many innocent, kind girls you're going to ruin this time."

Reno's face went cold, and he said solemnly, "Nami, what are you saying?!"

"Just kidding, Captain, I'm kidding." Seeing Reno raise his hand again, Nami quickly begged for mercy.

All female crewmates?!

Makino was startled, recalling the scenes from earlier that day when Reno taught her navigation, and felt deeply ashamed.

What was with her captain, always so lewd?

Thanks to whoever sent thousands of flowers.

Chapter 7: Syrup Village, Saving Kaya! (Request Data)

Sailing on the Great Sea was very boring.

Luckily, Reno had Nami and Makino to keep him company.

Every day, he'd bicker with Nami, getting her all riled up.

Or he'd tease Makino, whose threshold was lower, then leave satisfied.

These little daily routines made Reno's mood very pleasant.

Of course, the Most Important thing was discussing navigation techniques with the Two Women.

Once Nami and Makino got familiar, Reno went straight to playing cards.

Rain Dew Evenly Distributed!

A few times, they got so carried out that the ship strayed from its original course, wasting quite a bit of time on the way.

"Reno, keep it up—at this speed, we'll reach Syrup Village tomorrow, and you'll finally see the beauty Ship Doctor you've been Longing For."

Under the parasol, Nami took a leisurely sip of juice.

After so many days together, Nami was very curious.

How did Reno know where the beauties were?!

And he could even name them.

Whether it was Makino from Foosha Village or Kaya from Syrup Village, it was the same.

To this question, Reno's answer was ridiculous.

An innate sense for beauties?!

And one that ignored distance at that?!

Like hell I'd believe that!

Seeing Reno deliberately dodging the question, Nami had no choice but to let it go.

Makino walked out of the cabin with a towel and gently wiped the sweat from Reno's forehead.

"Still, my Makino is the most thoughtful."

Reno kept his eyes fixed on the sea ahead and gave Makino a reward-like kiss on the cheek.

A blush quickly crept onto Makino's face.

"I'm going to prepare lunch. Is there anything you'd like to eat?" Makino asked softly.

"As long as you make it, I'll love it." Reno replied with great seriousness.

Makino's face turned even redder.

It was a perfectly normal question, so why did it feel like flirting?!

"Nami, what about you?"

"I'm fine with anything." Nami waved her hand casually.

Makino nodded and turned to walk toward the kitchen.

After Makino left, Reno focused again on steering the Pirate Ship.

During the voyage, aside from flirting with Nami and Makino, Reno also tested his newly acquired Teleportation skill multiple times.

When passing by some deserted islands, Reno would temporarily let Nami take over the helm.

Meanwhile, he would use Teleportation.

The moment the thought arose, he had already appeared on the island he sensed.

It was nothing like techniques such as Soru.

Not only that, but Reno was also surprised to discover that, within a certain weight limit, he could even bring someone along when teleporting.
