You Wouldn't Want Anyone Else to Know You're a Marine, Would You?

Hina stared at Jogo,

at that familiar black hair and black eyes, that familiar face, and the shock in Jogo's eyes.

Gradually, her lips parted slightly. Her eyes beneath those long lashes blinked and blinked, as though she had understood something.

Jogo immediately lowered his head and shut the door. "Sorry, you have the wrong room."

How had he run into Hina in a place like this?

Though... to be fair, compared to the cool allure of a Marine miniskirt, Hina in a maid outfit had a touch more softness and charm. Paired with those long legs and the full curves outlined by her dress, the hints of maturity beneath her youthful appearance made her so beautiful it was hard to look away.

But Jogo only felt his scalp go numb.

"This is going to kill me! Even if I want a Devil Fruit trait, it can't be through something like this!"

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

How was he supposed to explain to Hina that he had infiltrated the Marines, impersonated someone else, falsified military intelligence, provoked a battle between the Marines and the gangsters, then slipped away without a trace?

She was going to kill him!

Before the door could close, a powerful force shoved it back open.

Hina might have looked delicate and soft, but as an honors graduate of the Marine Academy, her strength was not the least bit inferior to Jogo's—if anything, she was even stronger!

Before Jogo could react, the furious Hina had already thrown herself at him!

Bang!

Jogo fell to the floor.

Hina straddled him, both hands clamped around his neck, her silver teeth grinding so hard they nearly shattered!

"Hina thought you were dead!"

"You bastard! Hina was sad over you for so long!!"

"Hina even cried, you know?!"

"Who would've thought... you wanted! To! Desert!!!"

Jogo grabbed Hina's wrists, trying to break free.

Uncomfortable?

Not at all!

It was even a little enjoyable!

The maid skirt was very short, and from his angle, he could clearly see Hina's healthy, fair thighs. White stockings tightly wrapped around her long legs, emphasizing their graceful lines.

Higher up, the specially designed maid outfit outlined her slim waist. As Hina angrily leaned down to choke him, the swaying sight made his head spin, as though it were about to press against his face.

A faint fragrance washed over him, her weight pressing down on his body.

Jogo reacted instantly. He clenched his left hand into a fist, exerted force, and struck straight at that slender waist!

—His left hand clenched into a fist, exerted force, and struck straight at that slender waist!

Kidney Shot!!

What tenderness for a beautiful woman?

If he did not fight back now, then once Hina activated her ability, it would be too late to run!

Just then, hurried footsteps sounded in the corridor.

A pretty figure ran out from behind the door. It was the maid-uniformed waitress Jogo had encountered in the hallway earlier.

Her face was currently full of unease and anxiety.

Oh no, this little sister had only entered the business yesterday. She had not even had time to train her for long!

She had specifically picked out a young, handsome, rich second-generation heir around her age, hoping that this beautiful girl—so pretty even she found it a pity—could latch onto a wealthy man and leave this line of work for good.

Yet despite all her reminders and instructions, something had still gone wrong at the very last moment.

"How could you barge into a guest's room?"

She rushed to the doorway, pressed down her skirt, and immediately bowed ninety degrees without even raising her head.

"I'm sorry, sir. She's new here, you... Wait... Hm?"

When she raised her head and saw what was happening in the room, the waitress froze.

In the short passage behind the door,

the new little sister she had only taken over yesterday was boldly straddling the male guest, practically throwing her entire body onto him judging from the posture.

The male guest clearly seemed quite into it too, his hand already wrapped around the little sister's slim waist.

If she had not interrupted them, things might have gotten very heated!

The two people in the passage both turned to look at her, their expressions complicated.

The waitress was a little dazed.

Was this really the innocent little sister from yesterday, the clumsy girl who did not know how to flirt at all, knew nothing besides being sexy and beautiful, and blushed whenever anything related to that sort of thing came up?

She had directly pounced on the guest!

Who would have thought!

She looked pure and adorable on the surface, yet she was actually so thirsty in private!

Was she really not some female pervert from somewhere?

The waitress immediately put on an understanding expression, swept the hair by her ear back, and gently dipped into a curtsy.

"Sorry for interrupting. Have fun, you two~"

With that, she closed the door for them.

Before closing it, she even gave Hina an encouraging look.

Go for it!

That's it, keep up the momentum and thoroughly devour that handsome little guy!

"Wait, what are you thinking about!!"

Hina instantly understood her "teacher's" look. Thinking of her current outfit and posture, as well as yesterday's lessons, her pretty face turned scarlet in an instant.

"It's not like that, you misunderstood!" She desperately wanted to shout.

But the door had already closed.

Taking the opportunity, Jogo immediately flipped over and slammed Hina into the wall beside them,

then broke free and pulled away while Hina dodged.

For a moment, silence fell.

In the room, the two slowly got to their feet.

Hina glared at Jogo angrily, her cheeks still carrying a trace of red as her silver teeth ground together.

Oh no, she looked even angrier now!

Jogo had no intention of getting tangled up with Hina.

Trait switch.

[...

Conqueror's Haki (Awakened)

Traits equipped: "Otherworldly Soul (Silver)" "Child King (White)"

...]

"Child King" was what he had obtained after beating up all the bratty children in Ohara who had dared to isolate little Robin.

Its effect was that anyone younger than him and affected by his Conqueror's Haki would be more inclined to agree with what he said.

Conqueror's Haki release: 1%

Jogo raised a hand. "Wait, listen to me explain..."

It had absolutely no effect!

Before he could finish, Hina charged at him, her straight long leg lashing out like a whip!

The force behind it was so great that he could even hear the wind howl.

"Talk after Hina catches you!"

Jogo knew there was nothing left to say. He immediately swung a fist and rushed forward.

Amid a series of clattering impacts, the two became locked in combat.

Outside the door, the waitress crouched at the entrance and secretly listened for a while.

As the sounds inside grew louder and louder, she imagined the passionate scene within, and a blush unconsciously rose to her face. "Young people really do have good stamina~"

She lightly licked her lips and walked away with graceful steps.

"What a lucky boy. Next time, big sis won't give him to you~"

It was more than ten minutes before the sounds in the room finally stopped.

Jogo stood panting in a corner of the room, looking somewhat bedraggled.

—There were two swollen bumps on his forehead, one side of his mouth was split open, and he had injuries in places that could not be seen.

In contrast, aside from her clothes being a little disheveled, a few red marks on her legs, and a faint bruise visible near her collarbone, Hina was practically unharmed.

She looked completely at ease!

"Should I say it was only natural for someone from a proper Marine background?"

Jogo thought to himself,

"Just with hand-to-hand combat alone, she could probably suppress even a Gotti!"

"And that's in this cramped room, where she couldn't properly use her fighting techniques and didn't even use her Devil Fruit ability!"

"If she could fight without restraint, who knows how strong she'd be."

As for himself,

the Conqueror's Haki effect was practically useless, and his finishing move was still on cooldown...

"If that's the case, then do I have no choice but to use that move?"

Seeing that Hina was about to kick him again without another word, Jogo immediately raised his hand, spread his fingers toward her, and shouted:

"If you don't stop now, I'll make sure everyone on this ship knows you're a Marine!"

Miss Marine, you wouldn't want anyone else to know you're a Marine, would you!
