Yake entered Reiju's room.
He handed the pink capsule to Reiju, Reiju instinctively took it.
"Combat suit?"
"That's right. With the shape memory metal created by Wapol, Judge upgraded your combat suit. Now you don't have to wear it every day. When you need to fight, just use this capsule and it will automatically put on the combat suit."
Yake looked on expectantly, seemingly eager to see Reiju transform after donning her battle suit; it's rumored to be full of fan service...
"Since it's a gift from the captain, I'll accept it. Thank you, Yake." Reiju readily accepted the pink capsule. If it could become Yake's power, she didn't care who made it.
" Reiju, gulp... how about... you try it..."
"Captain, you've suddenly become so strange!" Reiju covered her mouth and laughed, Yake's appearance was really amusing.
"Alright, Captain, then... I'll give it a try?"
Reiju pressed the button on the capsule, and pink light instantly covered her entire body, tightly enveloping Reiju curvaceous figure.
"(⇀‸↼‶)"
Yake looked disappointed, but at least he didn't have to worry about being exposed during the battle, Yake made him feel much better.
As the light faded, Reiju transformed into a form familiar to Yake.
Wearing a pink, super short, strapless dress, Reiju had all the elements in place, instantly transforming Reiju a white priestess into a sexy older sister.
"Captain, how is it?" Reiju stood there with a smile, her arms crossed over her waist, creating a deep cleavage. The powerful "D" will had almost crushed Yake's will—no, it had far surpassed "D"!
"Hiss..." Yake gasped, quickly taking deep breaths to calm himself down. He had almost been seduced by Reiju, or rather, Reiju hadn't seduced Yake at all; she simply exuded a powerful charm at all times.
" Reiju, come outside. Let's see your strength." Yake had calmed down. If it were a strange woman, Yake wouldn't even bother to look at her. It was only because she was so familiar that his psychological defenses were immediately broken. His main purpose now was to test Reiju's strength in her battle suit.
"Captain, are we going to Amazon Lily?" Reiju asked disappointedly. She hadn't expected Yake to hold back, all that posing for nothing.
Yake nodded and left the room.
Amazon Lily, training base. Hearing that Reiju was going to fight Yake, Robin and the others came over. Law and Van Augur also stopped their training and turned their attention to the two in the training ground.
"Come on, Reiju, try to defeat me with all your might!" Yake said coldly. The battle was a serious matter. Although he wouldn't use his full strength, he would definitely fight Reiju with equal power.
"Okay, Captain, I'm going aboard!"
Reiju understood Yake's meaning and launched an attack without hesitation.
"Bang!!!"
" Rokushiki Ogi: Instant Kill!"
Reiju flew into the sky and used Geppo, creating a sonic boom. In the blink of an eye, she was in front of Yake, and her boots, coated with purple Venom, kicked Yake in the right chest. Yake's chest was dented, but it quickly recovered. The purple Venom hissed on Yake's skin.
"Good speed, but lacking in strength. Why didn't you just kick my heart? I told you not to hold back!!"
Yake appeared behind Reiju, grabbed Reiju wrist, and flung her away.
"Continue!"
Reiju gritted her teeth. Although she knew she was no match for the captain, the gap between them was despairing.
" The Rokushiki Ogi..."
Reiju used Geppo to teleport above Yake, her black right leg raised high in a tomahawk-style downward slash!
" Cherry Blossom Fall!!"
The attack, a powerful downward kick resembling a battle axe, struck Yake squarely on the top of his head, forcing Yake into the earth with tremendous force, leaving the surrounding ground riddled with cracks.
"That woman is incredibly strong!" Luo raised his hand to shield his eyes from the dust and smoke caused by Reiju's shockwave...
"Hmph~ Reiju is the strongest, even Robin can't beat her, meow!" Anna said proudly, as if she were the strongest.
Bepo repeatedly compared his legs to Reiju's. His legs were clearly stronger, so why couldn't he even beat Anna? Despite both having a bounty of 500 Beli, he was brutally beaten by Anna, a little girl from his hometown. Bepo fell into deep self-doubt.
"Captain, my attack isn't over yet!" Reiju's lips curled up, seemingly quite satisfied with the effect of her attack.
" Rankyaku - Falling Blossom Slash!"
A series of kicks unleashed a barrage of slashes, leaving Yake, who was just getting up, questioning his very existence.
"Did I add too much water?" Yake asked himself, then vanished instantly without using his powers. Like Reiju, he used the Marine Six Powers.
Don't get too cocky!
" Dragon Fist!"
"Thump!"
Yake appeared behind Reiju and punched Reiju into the ground before she could dodge.
"Cough cough~ Don't think you can defeat me like this, Captain, I've become stronger!" Reiju wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and stared at Yake without fear.
"Let me see just how strong you are!"
Yake said calmly, "The warm-up matches are over."
Reiju rushed in front of Yake, unleashing a barrage of kicks and elbows aimed at vital areas.
Yake calmly parried all of Reiju's attacks, occasionally counterattacking only to have Reiju dodge them. Some of these attacks were due to Yake holding back, while others seemed to have been anticipated by Reiju, who appeared to know Yake would do them...
" Observation Haki to Future Sight? No, not quite there yet, just a little bit more. I'll give her a hand then!" Yake thought, immediately launching a counterattack, his fists raining down on Reiju, but the force wasn't heavy, and besides, he didn't hit her face...
Reiju was temporarily at a disadvantage, struggling to dodge Yake's storm of attacks.
Reiju simply closed her eyes, focusing all her attention on Yake's attack trajectory. She dodged Yake's punches one after another. Gradually, Reiju sensed some of the punches that were about to come, but Yake did not throw them.
"Will this happen in the future?"
"Then I won't stand on ceremony!"
" Rokushiki Ogi: Black Moon!"
Taking advantage of Yake's momentary lapse in attention, Reiju unleashed her strongest attack, her jet-black fist tracing a crescent-shaped arc as it struck Yake's heart.
Yake stumbled back more than ten steps before regaining his balance.
Only then did Yake smile.
" Reiju, well done!"
Reiju's progress is truly astonishing; it seems it's time to prepare a powerful fruit for her.
