~~~ Chapter 13 ~~~

*Time Skip 6 months*

Tanzo's daily schedule wasn't any different from the first day he started training. Train till it gets dark and work on his body enhancement project at night. As Tanzo noticed earlier, he is quite talented. So, he was able to sense Haki and learn the basics of the two forms in just six months.

As for his enhancement project for four more devil fruits, he can't do anything because of the limitations set by nature. The DNA can't handle the change when it happens four more times. It will definitely break down. So, he just had to give up because if he eats four more despite the limitations, he will turn into something that is no less than a monster.

So, he decided to modify himself like the Vinsmoke sons. He wanted to compensate for the limit in devil fruits, with his modified body. He had already finished every calculation needed to start the genetic modification. He was just waiting for Hancock to get him the materials he needed for that, which arrived that day.

Two weeks ago, he also got rid of the Boa sisters' slave marks and they were beyond shocked and happy to have them off their backs.

Tanzo and Hancock were preparing the capsules for Reiju's and Tanzo's genetic modification when Reiju came flying to him angrily. Tanzo looked at her and asked "Reiju, what happened? Why do you look so angry?"

Reiju showed him a paper and asked in return "Are you seriously asking me that after hiding this from me? What were you thinking when you came to the conclusion that 'modifying your emotions' was a good idea? Did you not see my brothers? You will become an emotionless killing machine. I thought you were smart, but did you even think about me and Hancock when you were planning on doing this."

Hancock looked at Reiju surprised. Reiju said to Hancock "Anyone who looks at you two will tell you that you both are in love. Tanzo, who doesn't trust anyone easily, told you and me about his past two days ago."

Tanzo, Reiju and Hancock were camping outside for some reason. It was then that Tanzo told them about his past and the reason for his hatred towards the Navy and world government. Tanzo already knew that Hancock liked him and he knew from the show that she isn't someone who would fake her love for someone. Tanzo completely knew that he could trust her.

Hancock's face was red and she immediately looked down talking to herself "Is this an indirect confession? I want Tanzo to say that to me though."

Tanzo walked to Reiju, looked at her face and said "Reiju, I think you didn't understand it properly. I am not getting rid of all my emotions. I just want to get rid of fear. The fear of betrayal and the fear of death have always limited my actions, and if I want to become strong enough to protect both of you, I need to discard my fear and face dangerous opponents."

Reiju calmed down a little when she heard that he wasn't getting rid of all his emotions like her brothers. She still said "I still won't agree to this. Without any fear, you will become reckless and reckless people are the first ones to die in the grand line."

Reiju then turned to Hancock and said "What are you doing? You are supposed to help me stop him." but Hancock couldn't hear anything. Her face was completely red and she was lost in her imagination.

Tanzo walked closer to Reiju and hugged her. He then said "Reiju, I am very happy to have someone who thinks about me. I know what I am doing and I just want you to trust me this time. My fear is holding me back right now and I don't want that. Remember that, I will still be myself, just a little different in some situations."

It took him a lot of time to convince her. Tanzo then turned to Hancock and said "Hancock, I need the cleanest and the safest place on this island. No one should come to that place."

Hancock said "You can use my room. It is the safest and cleanest place on this island and no one will dare to come into my room." and Tanzo agreed.

Although Tanzo removed the slave mark, she still can't get rid of the fear she had from before. It did decrease a lot, but it was still there. That's why she still hasn't announced that Tanzo cured her curse. People still fear entering her room.

Tanzo set up the capsules in her room. One for Tanzo and the other for Reiju. She was getting rid of her command to be loyal to Judge. Tanzo said to Hancock "Hancock, Reiju is getting rid of the command to stay loyal to her father, so it shouldn't take much time. Whereas, I will need a lot of time since the modifications are more. So, I trust in you to keep us safe till then."

Hancock replied "I will never even let anyone know you are here."

Tanzo smiled and looked at Reiju and Hancock. He first walked to Reiju, gave her a peck on her lips, said "I love you" and hugged her. He then walked to Hancock and pulled her into a hug. She wasn't prepared for that. He then said to her "I love you".

Reiju was obviously suspicious of his actions. She asked "Tanzo, are you hiding something else? Is this really safe? I read scenes like these in novels when the main character is going to die or is about to do something dangerous."

Tanzo replied "Reiju, you know about me. I am not someone who relies on stupid things like luck. I am doing this only after I am sure about the success rate."

Reiju wasn't convinced, but she knew that Tanzo wouldn't stop no matter what she did. So, she just sighed and prayed that nothing bad happened. Hancock was also suspicious of his actions after Reiju mentioned it. She said "Tanzo, please stay safe."

Tanzo smiled and Reiju first entered the capsule. He did some adjustments and then prepared himself to enter the capsule. He looked at Hancock and before he entered, she moved to him and locked her lips with his. She then moved back and said "Please come back safely." Tanzo nodded and entered the capsule.

Tanzo's actions before he entered the capsule, was due to the risk involved in his genetic modification. He is trying to alter his body and give it superpowers while also making changes to his brain. This is risky because Tanzo is a grown man.

The Vinsmoke children had their genetics modified in their zygote stage. This means that they can grow according to their genetics, but Tanzo is already a full grown man. The genetic modification can change his appearance, his entire body structure, or even his race.

Also, since he is trying to get rid of the fear in his head, he is trying to alter his brain. Same as before, Vinsmoke kids were not developed, so altering their brains wouldn't affect them much, but it isn't the same with Tanzo.

He could lose his memories, his memories might get altered, his character might change, or he might even turn into a brain dead retard. Tanzo has worked a lot to increase the success rate, but he couldn't get it above 78%. Although that is a high enough number, there are still chances of failure.

Since Tanzo's luck has been kind to him ever since the earthling was also reincarnated in that body, he decided to leave it to luck for the first time in his life. He could have worked on it a little longer, but the knowledge from Earth proved to be inferior to the technology in the world of One Piece. He was not able to get a guaranteed result.

He still didn't go into the capsule without any solution to the rate of failure. He also attached a brain wave reader to monitor his brain and set it in such a way that he would wake up only after the process was successful. So, he would not be able to wake up until he gets the desired results. If the process fails, it will repeat again. It was the best idea he could come up with at that time.

Hancock looked at Tanzo's floating body in the capsule before leaving the room and returning to her work. Time went by and Reiju came out of the capsule after a week while Tanzo obviously didn't show any signs of coming out soon.

*Time Skip 6 months*

Reiju and Hancock were sitting in Hancock's room, and talking about something when Hancock suddenly asked Reiju "Is it true that you and Tanzo did it? How was it?"

Reiju understood what she meant and replied "Yes, it was wonderful. I thought it would hurt a lot when doing it for the first time, but I didn't feel anything. It might have something to do with my modified body. We had a lot of fun that night. Also, for some reason, me and my brothers all are sensitive in private regions and have an increased lust. This made the night even more amazing."

Reiju starts describing the night in the inn while on Shabondy Archipelago:

*Flashback 1 year ago*

Reiju and Tanzo returned back to their inn after they got the eterna pose to Amazon Lily. While Tanzo was silent all the time, Reiju wanted to use the night properly. She could tell that Tanzo wanted to train as soon as possible and she concluded that she wouldn't get another chance like today.

When they got to their rooms, Tanzo sat on the bed while Reiju was prepared to lose her virginity. She wore her white frilled dress she wore in the whole cake island arc. She slowly removed it and Tanzo, who was lost in his thoughts, noticed Reiju. Reiju smiled when she was finally able to grab his attention.

She then removed the dress and was standing in her inners in front of Tanzo. Seeing the bulge in his pants, she decided to continue the strip tease and bent down to remove her panties, slowly moving them down and giving Tanzo a clear view of her chest held back by her bra.

She then started walking towards Tanzo, slowly unhooking her bra. Tanzo was also enjoying the show in front of him. Reiju then got rid of her bra and her boobs were on display.

She then sat on his lap, facing him and stared into his eyes. Reiju then slowly moved closer and they both locked their lips. Tanzo then moved his tongue into her mouth and since Reiju didn't kiss anyone else in the past, she let Tanzo do as he pleased.

Reiju let out a cute moan while kissing when Tanzo moved his hand to her ass. Her ass was firm with only a little bounce. It is because of her modified body to suit fighting. While they were kissing, Reiju helped Tanzo undress and they both were naked.

Reiju roamed his chest and abs while Tanzo played with her boobs next. They were also a little bit firm with only a little softness. They were still amazing to the touch.

Tanzo slowly broke the kiss, leaving a string of saliva connecting them. Tanzo then moved down and kissed her neck and arrived at her nipples, which were erect from all the kissing.

He touched it with his tongue and Reiju immediately reacted. It seems her nipples were sensitive. Tanzo ran his tongue around the nipple and slightly bit it. This made Reiju moan loudly while her back arched "Aaaahhhh...."

Her moans only encouraged Tanzo to play with her nipples more. The stimulation seemed to be too much for Reiju, since she was moaning wildly "Aaahhh.... Tanzo.... too much....this is too much....Aaahhhh..."

Tanzo however didn't stop and it didn't take long before she climaxed. Her body shook while she shot out her cum, wetting Tanzo's dick. Her back arched while she looked up at the ceiling. "Aaaaaahhhh..." she loaned out loud and then fell on Tanzo.

Tanzo hugged her to support her and then slowly laid her on the bed. Tanzo was on top as he looked at Reiju's beautiful body. He looked at her and said "You look beautiful."

Reiju blushed for the first time, just for a split second before returning to her usual face. She smiled and said "You look amazing as well." running her fingers over his face.

Tanzo then positioned his dick at the entrance of her pussy and slowly started entering her. Her insides were tightly wrapping around his dick. Reiju's whole body was trembling as his dick was entering her. "Aaahh..." Reiju was moaning loudly the whole time.

She wasn't the only one feeling good. The feel and the pleasure Tanzo was getting from just entering her almost made him cum. There was no resistance when completely entering her, since her hymen was already broken from all the battles.

Tanzo had experience before, so he could hold on. Reiju's body was stiff so, he waited for her to relax and then started moving. He made sure to go slow, since even though she didn't have her hymen, it is still her first time.

He wanted to take it slow, but Reiju seemed to have gotten addicted to the pleasure she was receiving. Reiju then said "Tanzo.....faster.....faster...I am completely sensitive... even down there....Aaaahhhh.....this feeling....it is leagues above the pleasure I get from doing it myself.... don't slow down.....Aaaahhhhh....."

Reiju was completely sensitive and the stimulation and pleasure she was receiving is addicting for her. Her mind was going blank while her eyes slowly rolled back. Tanzo got to see the famous Ahegao face for the first time and it was something Tanzo would never forget.

Her face displaying pure bliss encouraged Tanzo to increase his pace. After a while, Reiju was close to cumming again and her insides tightly wrapped around his dick. Tanzo couldn't hold it in anymore and said to her "Reiju, I am cumming....."

Reiju couldn't say anything, but replied through her actions. She wrapped her legs around his waist and pulled him closer. With a final thrust, Tanzo released his load into her. "Aaaaahhhhh...." she also climaxed with him.

Tanzo was breathing heavily after climaxing and he removed his dick. He then fell to Reiju's side and stared at the ceiling. "That was amazing" he said.

Tanzo wasn't expecting a reply when he said that, but Reiju said "I agree. It was amazing." Tanzo turned to her and she was already back to her usual self. Reiju then slowly got up, spread her legs a little and Tanzo's cum leaked out of her pussy. She then said "I hope you are not done yet. We are going to spend the whole night exploring each other."

Tanzo asked her "Where did you learn all these dialogues and poses?"

Reiju replied while she lowered herself on Tanzo's dick "You already know the answer.....aaaahhh....I have a huge library.....aaahh... with different books."

Tanzo and Reiju continued exploring each other many times. Tanzo could last longer due to his enhanced strength from kaido's dna while Reiju was a modified human. Thus, they spent almost the whole night awake, not letting the neighbours to sleep too.
