"Whatever you say."

Naito didn't care at all.

"Great!"

Binz immediately jumped up, laughing loudly as he ran upstairs, "Sanji! Quick! Let's go choose a room!"

"Wait for me! Brother Binz!"

Sanji excitedly followed.

This kid clearly lived in a much more luxurious palace in the Germa Kingdom, I don't know what he's so excited about.

"Then I'll go pick a room too."

"Ain said calmly."

His tone was calm, but his heart was beating fast.

Very good.

In that case, tonight--

"Naito, I want to live with you!"

Hancock nestled close to Naito, smiling broadly.

Don't even think about it!

Ain turned around abruptly and stared intently at her.

How could I possibly give that wretched woman such an opportunity?

"Go find yourself a room, don't make me tell you twice."

Naito reached out and grabbed Hancock's face, pushing her away.

Naito the Hero can have issues with his conduct, but he cannot be associated with pirates.

"Gulp—what a cold-blooded man!"

Hancock pouted, looking somewhat dejected, and stood up, then rushed upstairs, saying, "I want the room closest to Naito!"

Ain's expression changed, and she quickly chased after him, shouting, "Stop right there!"

The two figures quickly disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Naito sighed softly.

Being too charming can sometimes be a problem.

Everyone seems happy.

The Vice Admiral Gion, who hadn't yet left, smiled gently, a cryptic glint in her eyes. "How about I stay here tonight too?"

Naito glanced at her sideways. "Suit yourself."

One more person wouldn't be too many.

Chapter 185 The Fight Between the Snipe and the Clam

Night had gradually fallen, and the bustling Marineford of the day finally quieted down.

At this moment, in Naito's villa.

Naito was soaking in the bathtub, lazily tilting his head back.

Judging from this, the Golden Lion is probably going to be in trouble.

Once his whereabouts are discovered, he won't even have a chance to escape, let alone resist.

No matter how far the old man's rehabilitation has progressed, he will be utterly powerless against the force the government has dispatched this time.

One Kizaru was already enough for him to handle, let alone a monster like Hawk-Eyes.

Naito even thought that Navy Naito might already have the potential to kill him single-handedly, as long as he didn't choose to run away.

Even if Golden Lion's Observation Haki has recovered to the point where he can Future Sight, Navy Naito already has a way to deal with Observation Haki that allows for Future Sight.

So, should we save him or not?

Naito thought to himself.

The Golden Lion was certainly no good; during the Battle of God Valley, he abandoned his comrades without hesitation for the sake of treasure.

Well, of course, it's really hard to describe the relationship between the officers of the Rocks Pirates back then as "partners."

Golden Lion is a despicable, cunning, cruel, and ruthless man; it's hard to trust him as an ally.

However, the power of the Float-Float Fruit is truly immense.

In terms of destructive power and deterrence alone, Naito even felt that the Golden Lion was no less powerful than Ancient Weapon.

That old lion is truly a being capable of destroying the world.

Sure enough, I should lend a hand.

What if there's a chance to bring the Golden Lion directly into the Dream World?

Naito got out of the bathtub.

Compared to the big guys in the world, Naito's physique wasn't particularly robust.

However, it was very well-proportioned, with a slender but not skinny figure, and full but not ostentatious muscles. It was hard to imagine that this body contained a surging power capable of piercing through mountains.

The moisture on Naito's body evaporated instantly the moment he stepped out of the bathtub, the heat coming from nowhere causing his wet hair to dry in the blink of an eye, and the bathrobe hanging to one side flew over and draped over him.

When I'm alone, I finally don't have to be so careful anymore.

In that case, let World go.

In any case, Luna's progress is going very smoothly. During this time, all the residents of the Cabala Kingdom have been successfully pulled into the Dream World.

World, on the other hand, lives a life of debauchery and almost never participates in team activities. He spends most of his time wasting his time in the Dream World, so losing him won't make a difference.

Ah, look how much I care about you, Shiki.

If you don't repay me properly, I won't accept it.

Naito had finished tidying up and was already in bed remotely controlling World when...

Next door, in Ain's room.

The woman was naked, her beautiful sea-blue hair covered by a shower cap. She had just finished showering and was applying body oil and lotion to her smooth, fair skin.

After arguing with that wretched woman for ages, neither of them gained an advantage in the end. One person chose the room to Naito's left, and the other chose the one to Knight's right, so it was a happy ending for everyone.

However, this is only the beginning.

Ain's expression was solemn.

Tonight is the perfect opportunity to completely possess Naito!

Hmph, this inexplicable competition between females ends here tonight, Pirate Empress!

After tonight, Naito is mine!

Although Naito would never have accepted you anyway.

Furthermore, Gion- senpai is staying overnight, even though her house isn't far from here.

As expected, that senior colleague also held Naito in high regard.

But that's okay. While you're still hesitating, I'm already going to win everything!

Gion- senpai, such a handsome man is a must-have!

Ain revealed a resolute look in her eyes.

In short, let's get the final preparations done first!

Ain wrapped herself in a bath towel, took off her shower cap, dried her hair with a towel, and then applied hair oil to the ends of her hair.

As a naval warrior, Ain would never be this meticulous most of the time, but tonight is different, tonight is unique!

After taking care of her body and hair, Ain sat in front of the vanity mirror, took out the cosmetics she had secretly bought, and began to apply makeup according to the methods she had learned from other female marines.

Foundation, concealer, eyebrow makeup, eyeshadow, eyeliner...

It's clear that Ain isn't very skilled, but as a warrior of considerable strength, her advantage lies in her incredibly steady hands, making her almost never make a mistake.

Soon enough, a completely new Ain appeared in the mirror.

Ain looked at herself in the mirror, her face slightly flushed. Such a beautiful woman, Naito, it's not like I'm doing you a disservice.

And then comes the last one.

Ain carefully took a bag out of her luggage and pulled out a black dress.

She changed into a dress, stood in front of the mirror, and looked at herself in the mirror.

Ain hardly recognized her.

A black halter dress draped over her fair and slender figure, with thin straps hanging at the ends of her collarbones. Below her collarbones, the fabric was pushed up high, vaguely revealing her fair skin. Below, her waist and hips were also outlined breathtakingly by the satin.

Her shoulder-length blue hair fell down, making her cheeks appear rosy.

She raised her hand to lightly touch her burning earlobe, shyly looking away, but couldn't help looking back—that unfamiliar yet beautiful version of herself was looking at her shyly through the mirror.

I secretly bought this in town today while grocery shopping. It looks great on me, very sexy!

Then, all the preparations are complete.

Ain took a deep breath.

Marine Headquarters Lieutenant Commander Ain, sortie!

Naito, prepare to face my wrath!

Ain pushed open the door.

It was getting late, and the villa was completely quiet except for a dim yellow light shining in the corridor.

Ain took the first step.

There was none of the shyness or timidity I had imagined; instead, a strong sense of excitement, exhilaration, and eagerness welled up inside me!

However, this is simply a matter of course.

It was me who was longing for Naito!

Ain, you're doing something greedy.

Ain thought this, she didn't stop walking. In just two steps, she reached Naito's door and reached out to pull Naito doorknob without hesitation.

But.

Huh?

Is the door locked?

Ain's expectant expression immediately turned awkward.
