"Luffy, stop eating!"
Nami snatched the giant bowl away from the straw hat wearing girl who was happily stuffing her face, then casually took the bowl from the blindfolded girl beside her, the one wearing a long pointed hat.
"Awuu!"
The cheerful expression on the feminized Luffy's face instantly disappeared, replaced with a pitiful pout.
"Nami, I'm still hungry!"
"Wuwuwu..."
The other girl nearby, her eyes covered with gauze, angrily turned toward the bowl in Nami's hand while grinding her teeth.
"Damned woman! You actually stole this great one's food! This great one is..."
Bonk!
Bonk!
Two painful fists from Nami, the true ruler above even the Yonko, landed directly on their heads. Both instantly grimaced and clutched the swollen bumps forming on their foreheads.
These two were:
The feminized captain, Straw Hat Luffy.
And the feminized, shrunken Prince of Elbaf, Loki.
Back in Elbaf, after a series of battles and unexpected events, Luffy and Loki had become close friends after acknowledging each other's strength.
Loki's current position in Elbaf was awkward, so after Luffy's invitation, he temporarily joined the Straw Hat crew as an ally.
Using the abilities of the Mini-Mini Fruit, Shirogai had reduced Loki's massive giant body to a manageable size.
"The number of troublesome people on this ship keeps increasing..."
Nami sighed helplessly before turning toward Shirogai.
"Shirogai, tell us already. After leaving Elbaf, we crossed the Calm Belt and finally arrived at this Pilgrim Island after so much trouble. What's the plan now?"
"As long as we step onto this island, the next part of the plan will naturally reveal itself."
The feminized Shirogai smiled faintly. Even in female form, his beauty was breathtaking enough to make hearts race uncontrollably.
"Well, looks like our next destination is the island itself."
The feminized Jinbe poked her head out from the helm.
"Everyone, we'll reach the port of Pilgrim Island in less than ten minutes. Get ready."
"By the way, Shirogai, shouldn't you turn us back before we go ashore?"
The heroic looking Zoro stared at Shirogai with twitching lips.
He had already realized the truth.
Shirogai never turned them into women to help them experience combat differently or improve themselves.
He did it purely for entertainment.
"Relax. After five hours, the effects of the Horm-Horm Fruit will naturally wear off. You'll all return to normal."
"We still have to wait five more hours?!"
Veins bulged across Zoro's forehead.
"I seriously can't stand looking like this anymore..."
"We still need to infiltrate Mary Geoise using female identities."
Shirogai smiled lightly.
"Think of it as mental training, Zoro."
"Damn it..."
Zoro gritted his teeth and tried his best to suppress the discomfort in his heart.
Even though he was convinced Shirogai was enjoying this far too much, Zoro refused to admit that turning into a woman genuinely bothered him.
After all, Asura transcended concepts like male and female.
Nearby, the feminized Usopp gently stroked his handsome face while sighing dramatically.
"This beautiful girl carries the loneliness of the entire world. Allow me to bloom quietly in peace..."
Not far away, Chopper hid behind the door shyly, peeking out nervously.
"I hate this! I... I'm not embarrassed just because I became a girl!"
"Yohohoho! At a moment like this, music is necessary!"
The feminized Brook laughed loudly while singing in a beautiful soprano voice.
"Soni-chan, Lufei-chan, Lanlan-chan~"
Meanwhile, Sanji spun around the deck with sparkling eyes, looking even more suspicious than usual.
"Qiaoba-chan~ Xiao Suopu-chan~ Xiao Bubu-chan~ and especially the cutest and most beautiful Qinqin-chan~"
The crewmates who usually annoyed him had suddenly transformed into gorgeous girls.
It left Sanji both conflicted and absurdly excited.
His mind had already entered a dangerous state of acceptance.
"If my brothers turned into beauties, then I might as well enjoy it!"
"Idiots! You're all complete idiots!"
Nami felt a headache coming on as she looked at the chaos unfolding around her.
Every single one of them was exhausting.
With an annoyed sigh, she pulled her mask back on and chose to ignore the madness entirely.
"Hehe..."
Robin covered her mouth as she laughed softly, clearly finding the entire situation amusing.
Shirogai quietly watched the lively atmosphere with a faint smile.
"It's nice... I wish these days could continue forever."
"Hm? Shirogai, what did you say?"
Luffy tilted her head curiously while blinking at him.
"I said I'm happy whenever I'm with all of you."
Shirogai's gentle smile was dazzling.
Robin's eyes lingered on him for a brief moment, while Nami looked away with a faint blush hidden beneath her irritation.
"Of course! We're partners!"
Luffy grinned brightly and laughed without hesitation.
...
The pink ship slowly docked at the harbor.
"Wooow, they're beautiful!"
"That's an unbelievable group of beauties!"
"The woman in the center is almost comparable to Pirate Empress Boa Hancock!"
The moment the group stepped onto the dock, countless eyes gathered on them instantly.
Naturally, this also attracted the attention of certain filthy scavengers lurking in the shadows.
A group of hunting dogs who specifically searched for prey to present to the World Nobles, the Celestial Dragons.
