One Piece - Life Choice Ask Me to Kiss Marine Goddes Hina

"What's wrong? Can't I?" Lynch asked with a playful smile.

"No! Of course you can," Ain stammered, her heart racing like a wild deer. She shyly avoided Lynch's gaze, gently lifting the hem of her skirt to reveal her smooth ivory legs.

"Okay... okay," 

Ain muttered, lowering her head like an ostrich, almost burying her face in her chest

Lynch realized Ain had misunderstood, but instead of correcting her, he smiled and said, "Good job. Let me check your wound. It might hurt a little, so try not to move."

"Ah?" 

Ain's thoughts spiraled as she misunderstood Lynch's words. 

"Look at the wound? Wait... does he mean *that*?" 

"This is our first real meeting, isn't this moving too fast?" 

"And when he said it might hurt a little... how does he know it's my first time?" 

Her mind spun in confusion, caught in a whirlwind of nervous thoughts.

Lynch was also stunned this time when he saw Ain covering the hem of her skirt tightly, like a wooden man.

They say girls are fickle. What did this stupid girl think of?

Without hesitating further, he reached out and gently removed the bandage from her thigh.

A sharp pain jolted Ain back to reality, pulling her from her daydream. Realizing what Lynch was actually doing, she felt a wave of embarrassment wash over her. 

"So, it was this wound..."

she mumbled, wishing she could disappear into the floor.

"Be gentle~it hurts."

Ain winced as Lynch peeled back the gauze. The bandage had stuck to the skin, reopening the wound slightly, and fresh blood began to flow out

"Why is it still bleeding? I'll be more gentle," Lynch said with concern.

"Yeah, thank you... maybe it's because it's my first time," Ain responded, a bit flustered.

Outside the door, Zephyr, passing by, overheard the exchange and froze, as if he'd been struck by lightning.

What kind of outrageous conversation is this?! 

Could it be that they're really... inside?

"Hiss~"

Zephyr took a breath of air and lamented that the progress was too fast.

Since his time in the elite camp, Zephyr had always thought Lynch was a genius in picking up girls. 

If he had even half of Lynch's talent, he might not have waited so long to get married.

As one of the few survivors of this incident, Ain was like a daughter to Zephyr. 

Thinking of the daughter he raised and care was being r***d by pigs so quickly, his heart ached.

If it hadn't been for Lynch, whose making his hand back and were full of flesh, he would have definitely rushed in and beaten that b*****d to death.

"Hey, this young man."

In the end, Zephyr decided to leave it to the younger generation. As an old-timer, he felt it was best not to interfere.

"That boy has three wives. I'll need to ask him to give Ain a wedding later," Zephyr thought as he walked outside.

After removing the gauze from Ain's thigh, a nasty cross scar was exposed. Ain, who is concerned about her appearance, asked anxiously, "Mr. Lynch, will there be a scar?"

"It would have, but now that I'm here, it won't happened." Lynch touched Ain's leg gently. 

For a small wound like this, there's no need for special treatment; the natural healing power is enough. "It might feel a bit itchy,"

"Don't scratch it; just wait a moment." 

As Lynch touched Ain's leg, the wound seemed to disappear, leaving the skin smooth and elastic again.

"Amazing!" 

Ain's eyes sparkled with admiration. She stood up and said sweetly, 

"Thank you, Admiral Lynch." 

Then, with a quick kiss on Lynch's cheek, like a dragonfly landing, Ain ran away shyly.

"This is your reward~" Ain's cheerful voice echoed in Lynch's ears.

"This girl." Lynch touched the area where he was kissed and smiled helplessly.

The next day, he received news that Zephyr had established a "Pirate Guerrilla." 

Ain and Binz had joined the group, focusing on hunting pirates.

...…

Far to the west, on the sea:

"Master Cat, is it really okay for us to be called the Beasts Pirates?" 

On the boat, a talking mouse whispered to Tom.

The name frightened him, worried that the real Beasts Pirates might come after them someday. 

Tom turned around, and disappointment flashed in his eyes. 

Even though they were all mice, they were not the real Beasts Pirates after all.

"Don't worry, I'm here," Tom said, taking out a pen and paper to write. 

Since Kaido's disruption at Lynch's wedding, his name had been noted in Tom's notebook. 

Looking at the crew of the boat—a talking mouse, two kung fu dugong, two bears, and himself—Tom knew they were far from the real Beast Pirates.

Kaido is a human being, so he is not a Beast, Tom is the real Beast Pirates.

Actually, there's still one more person on board—a birdman.

A bird woman to be precise.

"Master Cat, are you okay?" Monet asked with a warm smile. 

Tom turned his gaze away.

Tom was suspicious of Monet, who had joined the crew on her own. 

After some thought, he came to a surprising conclusion: 

"Could it be that she's interested in his master?!"

…

"Pirate guerrillas?"

In the office, Lynch listened to the reports from his subordinates. After all that happened, Teacher Zephyr still embarked on this path.

It seemed that Zephyr had left the Marine and started a new force around the same time Marine recruited Whitebeard II, Edward Weevil as Shicibukai

"This Teacher Zephyr really took our jobs," Lynch said, said to Mark as he prepared to sail out to sea to assist Zephyr and earn some points in the process.

Zephyr, still reeling from his emotional turmoil, was restless. If he lost control, he might confront Whitebeard II and take drastic action.

It would be a tragic end for a hero. 

The former Black Arm Admiral, now 66, found himself unable to defeat Whitebeard II and had even lost one of his arms.

Mark, Lynch's favorite subordinate in the SWORD department, is just 25 years old but already has Rear Admiral-level strength. 

Lynch recently gave him the Zoan·Ancient Species·Triceratops fruit that Mark won in a lottery.

With the vitality of the ancient zoan, there are not many pirates on the sea who are his opponents.

With the vitality of the ancient Zoan, few pirates can match Mark's strength.

"Great, my subordinates will finally see your heroic side again!"

"I bet the pirates are so scared of your reputation that they've fled before you even showed up," Mark said, his face flushed with excitement.

Mark is a good guy, but his only flaw is that he's too good at bragging. 

Sometimes, Lynch feels embarrassed by his bragging.

Mark bragged that he nearly punched the Four Emperors to death and stepped on the future Pirate King. 

When he heard this, he had to step in and deal with both of them. But wait, it seems the future Pirate King has already been defeated.

Lynch successfully boarded Zephyr's warship. 

Despite Zephyr's high standing in the Marines and his desire to form a pirate guerrilla group, even Sengoku couldn't stop him. 

Zephyr looked at Lynch with relief, but didn't say much.

He instinctively understands his disciple's thoughts. 

As he looked out at the sea, Zephyr's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
