One Piece: The Strongest Female Pirate Crews

Chapter 139: Chapter 139: The Mature Ladies with Loli Hearts—Is It Illegal?



It was a scene that would make anyone's blood boil.

And yet, to those involved, it didn't seem like a big deal at all.

Their bodies had grown, but their minds were still those of the young girls they had been, like Kuina and Baby 5, who were just around ten years old before. At that age, they didn't know much about the differences between men and women.

On the ship, they had never been shy about such matters.

And now, their physical changes didn't suddenly make them embarrassed.

They still behaved as before.

They had no guards up around Kuke.

Kuke silently averted his eyes and turned to leave the room.

This was dangerous, he thought. Against the law, for sure.

He muttered to himself, reminding himself that this was definitely illegal. Absolutely illegal.

Kuke walked quietly to the door, ensuring no one around could see inside.

He could hear the chatter from inside the room.

Their voices were alluring, but their words were innocent, and Kuke felt his blood begin to stir.

"Did I make a mistake?"

He began to regret it.

What was he going to do on the ship from now on?

He had always seen them as little sisters.

Their minds were still those of little girls, but now their bodies... Ai!

Bored, Kuke let his thoughts drift.

In his peripheral vision, he caught sight of Hiyori hiding in the distance. She had been sneaking around, thinking she was well hidden.

But Kuke and his crew had noticed her long ago.

Kuke beckoned her over.

With nothing else to do, he decided to tease her a bit.

Thirteen-year-old Hiyori was like a startled little rabbit, fleeing at full speed, too scared to approach Kuke.

After waiting for several minutes.

The door behind him opened.

A large group of women walked out.

Kuke turned, his eyes lighting up.

He hadn't looked closely before, but now, as he took in their appearance...

Among those who had used the powers of the Juku Juku no Mi to mature were Yamato, Kuina, Koala, Baby 5, and Boa Hancock's two younger sisters.

Yamato, Koala, Baby 5, and Ulti—their grown-up appearances were as Kuke had imagined.

Just like in the original story.

Kuina, however, looked like the future Tashigi.

No.

They looked even more enchanting than their future versions.

The innocence and purity in their eyes were something that they wouldn't have as adults.

Wasn't every man's dream a girlfriend with a pure, innocent heart, yet a mature and curvy figure?

The true image of a mature lady with the heart of a young girl.

Yamato hadn't changed much.

She was already close to adulthood.

Kuke didn't pay much attention to Boa Hancock's two younger sisters. It wasn't favoritism—he just preferred admiring beauty.

"Not bad. Your physiques are now mature, so your training will be much easier from here on out."

Kuke nodded approvingly.

With their bodies now mature, their strength had also improved.

Yamato Power Level: 58,692

An increase of over eight thousand.

Kuina Power Level: 6,681

An increase of around three thousand.

Baby 5 Power Level: 5,241

An increase of over a thousand.

Koala Power Level: 2,561

An increase of around a thousand.

Ulti Power Level: 4,663

An increase of around fifteen hundred.

Boa Sandersonia Power Level: 12,007

Boa Marigold Power Level: 10,563

Both increased by around fifteen hundred.

It was as Kuke had expected.

Their physical strength had improved, but they hadn't gained the same power levels they would have had as adults in the future.

The Juku Juku no Mi wasn't that overpowered.

They only had adult bodies—nothing else had changed.

There was no instant leap to immense strength.

If the fruit could give them the power they'd have as adults, it would be a god-tier Devil Fruit.

Their power hadn't skyrocketed, but their new bodies would make future growth much easier.

With mature bodies, they could now train at full intensity.

There was no more need to wait to grow up.

"Judging from the power increases, Kuina and Yamato have the greatest potential, followed by Ulti."

Kuina wasn't a Devil Fruit user.

Despite this, her power increase was only slightly less than Yamato's.

Ulti, also a non-fruit user, gained strength on par with those who had Devil Fruits, like Baby 5.

"How does it feel to be grown up now?"

"Not very convenient."

"I don't have anything to wear."

"I wish this part could be smaller."

"Yeah, it's really not convenient at all." Wearing Gion's clothes, Kuina and the others were most displeased by the weight on their chests—they were so heavy.

They had never experienced this before.

Kuke pretended not to see or hear them.

Did the laws of the sea cover this? Wait, since when did pirates care about what's legal or not?

He decided to change the subject.

"We have three Devil Fruits here. Would anyone like to become a Devil Fruit user?"

Kuke gestured for Nico Robin to bring out the three Ancient Zoan Devil Fruits they had found in the treasury earlier.

She laid them out in front of everyone.

"Anyone without a Devil Fruit can choose."

Kuke glanced at Makino as well.

"Three Ancient Zoans?"

The non-fruit users on the ship were Ulti, Kuina, Koala, and Makino.

"Ancient Zoans..." Ulti's eyes gleamed.

She stared intently at the three Ancient Zoan Devil Fruits.

She had risked her life to try and steal a powerful ability from the treasury.

And now, it was right in front of her.

With a mind still that of a ten-year-old, Ulti couldn't hide the desire in her gaze.

Growing up in the brutal Beast Pirates had taught her that a good Devil Fruit could be more important than hard work—a strong power was everything.

The Beast Pirates were full of Zoan-type users.

Ulti was familiar with Zoans.

The mythical Zoan types were beyond her wildest dreams.

The Ancient Zoan types were what she dared to hope for—the best she could imagine.

The highest-ranking officers in the Beast Pirates—the Tobiroppo and All-Stars—all had Ancient Zoan abilities.

These people...

To Ulti, they had been untouchable figures.

Now, three Devil Fruits that could grant that kind of power were right before her.

She desperately wanted one.

But she had only just joined the Sun and Moon Pirates; she was the newest member.

Ulti withdrew her outstretched foot.

What right did a newcomer have to compete for such powerful Devil Fruits?

She looked at Kuina and the others enviously.

She tried to comfort herself.

"With such a generous captain, I'm sure I'll get a Devil Fruit one day. But will I ever get such a powerful Ancient Zoan again?" Ulti wondered, both hopeful and anxious.

"I don't want to be a Devil Fruit user for now," Kuina said, shaking her head.

She hugged her sword.

She wanted to pursue the way of the sword.

Koala looked disdainfully at the three Devil Fruits. "Three Ancient Zoans, but I don't like any of these animals. I'll wait until the captain finds me a better one."

Koala, as always, clung to Kuke's arm, playfully acting spoiled.

To Kuke, however...

It was different now. It felt different.

"I don't want one either," Makino said, declining the Ancient Zoan.

Ulti stood there, stunned.

"These are Ancient Zoans! Rare and powerful abilities, incredibly valuable." She couldn't believe they had rejected them without hesitation.

She had never imagined...

That someone could refuse an Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit.

"An Ancient Zoan? Is that really that amazing? Our captain has multiple Mythical Zoans, the most powerful Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit, and the most valuable Paramecia-type Op-Op Fruit," Koala said, poking her head out from behind Kuke.

She looked at Ulti, confused by her intense reaction.

Ulti felt like her world had been turned upside down.

What kind of godlike pirate crew had she joined?

"Ulti, if you want one of the Devil Fruits, go ahead and choose. If none of them suit you, you can wait. It's better to become a Devil Fruit user now, but if you're unhappy with it, there's always the chance to get a different one in the future," Kuke said, looking at the still somewhat reserved Ulti.

Ulti bit her lip.

She was moved.

She had never experienced such kindness before.

"Captain, I... I..."

She walked up to the three Devil Fruits, her heart pounding.

All three were Ancient Zoan types.

Ancient Zoan: Spinosaurus Model

Ancient Zoan: Pachycephalosaurus Model

Ancient Zoan: Quetzalcoatlus Model

Ulti turned to look at Kuke, her eyes wide.

She didn't know which to choose.

She trusted Kuke's judgment and asked for his help.

"The strongest is the Spinosaurus, the most suitable for you is the Pachycephalosaurus, and the most beautiful is the Quetzalcoatlus."

"I want the Quetzalcoatlus." Ulti picked up the Quetzalcoatlus Devil Fruit.

Under everyone's watchful eyes...

Ulti devoured the Devil Fruit, barely tasting its awful flavor.

She had become the Ancient Zoan Quetzalcoatlus user.

Her power level increased by around six thousand.

She had broken past ten thousand in strength.

Kuke also gained a corresponding power boost.

Before defeating Sengoku the Buddha, Kuke's power level was around seven hundred thousand.

Now, his power level had reached seven hundred ninety thousand.

His women were growing stronger, and he had added both Yamato and Ulti to his crew.

His power level was approaching eight hundred thousand.

At seven hundred thousand, Kuke wasn't sure if he had surpassed Whitebeard, who was at the tail end of his prime. Now... he had no doubts.

It wasn't just about his power level.

His physical strength had also grown significantly.

Before, Kuke's physique was rated at 75.

With Yamato, who possessed a Mythical Zoan, his physique had increased by 18.

With Ulti, who had an Ancient Zoan, his physique increased by 8.

Total Physique: 101

He had broken past the theoretical limit of 100 for the strongest bodies in the sea.

The strongest physique on the sea.

Without Haki, without any defenses, relying on his body alone, he could instill despair in others.

His vitality, endurance, recovery, and defensive capabilities...

The strongest on the sea.

Kaido, with his monstrous physique, might just end up crying.

Kuke was eager to test his newfound physical strength.
