[101] Nami's New Power

[2100 Words]

------------------------------------------

The Grand Line, Skypiea.

In Elsama, specifically in the special dimension.

Dawn was approaching, and the small moon illuminated the dimension's sky.

And in the modern house on the only island here, tranquility was everything.

"Everyone is still asleep..." Mikita looked at the house from afar.

She was currently outside the house, just waking up from sleep and finding all the girls still asleep, so she decided to go out for some fresh air.

Previously, Ren had come to them and given them some good things that would help increase their strength, but the girls hadn't consumed them yet. They preferred to do it with Ren because he knew how to guide them.

Mikita didn't know why Ren didn't sleep in the dimension as well; she missed him.

"Haah..."

A light sigh escaped her lips before a purple-black portal appeared out of nowhere. Mikita quickly entered the whirlpool-like gate and disappeared from the dimension.

She was going to search for her dear captain.

...

[After 10 minutes]

Mikita arrived at the upper Yard and climbed Giant Jak until she reached the Temple of God. She didn't face any problems entering because the Pegasus soldiers knew her identity as one of the favored followers of the Lord, so no one dared to stop her. Her entrance was smooth.

"Hum Hum Hum Hum🎶~" Mikita hummed happily at the thought of spending time with the captain. She quickly asked about his whereabouts, but the palace maids said they hadn't seen him.

Mikita sighed, realizing she had to search for him herself, but that didn't dampen her mood.

[After a few minutes]

"..."

Mikita silently looked at the room where Conis slept.

Although Conis had witnessed many changes, Mikita could still recognize her because some features couldn't change or disappear.

"Is this..." she murmured softly upon seeing bloodstains on the bed sheets. Was her guess correct? Conis... had really done it with the captain.

It wasn't difficult for someone as intelligent as her to figure out what happened, starting from the blood, which must be Conis's virginity blood, and the room's appearance, in addition to the familiar scent of sex she had been smelling from Ren's room in the past weeks.

Moreover, there was no man in the temple except Ren, the guards she had seen before, although she didn't recognize them. She would ask Ren about this after meeting him. This left only one man in this place, Ren...

And he seemed interested in Conis, considering how he treated her. He wouldn't let her slip through his fingers.

"Why am I feeling sad..." Mikita smiled a sad and helpless smile. She didn't know why she felt bitterness, jealousy, and anger when she found out he did it with Conis.

She left the room quietly after closing the door and tried to suppress her sadness while continuing her search for Ren.

"I didn't feel this way even though I knew he did it with Nami and Nojiko..." she said softly to herself as she walked and searched among the rooms.

She was in a mental state that made her forget to even use Observation Haki to search better.

"Maybe because I accepted that I'm inferior to them? No! That's not the case... why does it even matter who he does it with? I don't understand what's wrong with this..."

In fact, Mikita hadn't admitted her feelings towards Ren yet, but knowing that he did it with a girl he barely knew and didn't do it with her, who had been with him for weeks, made her sad, confused, and filled with many negative emotions.

Although he had done it several times with Nojiko and Nami, she even heard their moans with her own ears, it didn't make her feel sad like this time. She only felt jealousy and envy.

But this time was different; she was sad and upset.

Perhaps because he did it with a girl he had only known for a day and didn't do it with her, who had been with him for weeks? Why? Does she lack feminine charm?

"Not fair.."

She left these sad words and cut off her train of thought. She knew that if she continued, she would force herself to accept the reality that says she loves her captain who sleeps with several girls, concubines... a completely unfamiliar and new idea to Mikita.

A girl like her used to dream that she would marry a handsome, rich man who loved only her, then they would live happily and have many children. She never thought for a moment that she would be part of a "harem".

But ironically, here she is now loving a person who has many women, and she can't stop loving him. On the contrary, these feelings are growing.

"..."

"No way..."

Mikita looked at the scene that greeted her with shock and dismay after opening the door to a random room.

There, Ren was sleeping while being hugged by two blonde girls, each one lying on his side, Angela on the right and Angelina on the left.

*Creak~*

She quietly closed the door and left the Temple of God.

As she was about to leave, she heard a voice in front of her: "What's wrong, Lady Mikita?" One of the female Pegasus warriors asked.

"..."

Mikita didn't respond; she didn't even glance at the female warrior's direction, she just silently left.

She quickly returned to Elsama and entered the dimension after passing through the black-purple whirlpool.

She appeared again on the island, quickly sitting on the chair placed on the beach, gazing in astonishment at the shining moon.

"You do it with random sluts you just met while I'm right here..."

Though there was no one with her, it seemed she was talking to someone absent, her voice like a sorrowful symphony.

" You know, this hurts." She continued speaking, not taking her eyes off the moon.

"W-Why am I getting emotional suddenly?" Her body trembled, her eyes reddened, the strong facade she had maintained seemed to shatter.

Tears started streaming down her cheeks in a steady flow.

"Waaah..."

She cried like a child, recalling the scene she witnessed: her captain, the person she loved, the first person she loved, sleeping with two girls he had just met.

She felt sad and jealous, not just about Conis but about two other girls she knew nothing about, doing it with him while she hadn't!

She felt it was unfair, that the world was unjust, and for the first time... she felt resentful towards Ren.

"I hate you!" She cried, her tears not ceasing to fall, it seemed she wouldn't easily overcome this.

"I love you..."

She finally confessed her feelings towards him; she had loved Ren, and her hesitation had led her to this state. If only she had been braver and tried to show her love for him, would he have accepted her long ago?

Even accepting his sharing with Nami and Nojiko if it meant being with him, she had respected the two sisters greatly. Besides, she could live without Ren, so her only option was to overlook the "harem."

Everything was going well, at least that's what she thought, until she discovered there were three girls who preceded her, girls she didn't know anything about them!!

Mikita sat on the beach, crying while gazing at the moon for a long time; she didn't know when, but she soon fell asleep.

Drifted into the realm of dreams.

....

[Morning]

Ren woke up in the room and found himself alone; it seemed Angela and Angelina had woken up before him and quickly left. Were they embarrassed and didn't know how to face him?

Ren put on his clothes, consisting of a blue and white jacket, with long gray pants matching his upper clothes, along with black gloves. After combing his hair and brushing his teeth, he left his room.

"Good morning, ladies."

"Good morning, Lord." ×2

He was greeted by two female voices when he reached the throne room; he found the two sisters there, wearing the same clothes they were accustomed to wearing.

Angelina didn't seem embarrassed; she behaved as if nothing had happened, while there was a slight blush on Angela's cheeks.

"Nice, I'll leave you here and come back later." Ren nodded to them with a slight smile, not wanting to make things awkward for them. After the girls assured him that they would do their work perfectly, he left.

He went to Conis's room and checked on the girl, then left the temple to Elsama.

He soared into the sky using Moonwalk and traveled steadily. After several minutes, he found the ship floating quietly in the air.

After a few minutes, Ren reappeared in the dimension.

"Yo~." He entered the house and found that the girls were having breakfast; they were all here.

"Hello, Captain!" Vivi looked at Ren and smiled.

"You finally decided to come and visit us ~" Nojiko teased as she sipped her tea.

"When will we start training, Captain?" Nami asked as she drank her orange juice.

"Hello~" Zala greeted cheerfully.

"Good morning, Ren-san. Did you sleep well?" Lorena looked at him and smiled slightly.

"Haven't you had your breakfast yet?" Kaya invited him to sit with them.

"Fufufu~ Did the captain do anything 'interesting'?" Robin looked at him with curious eyes. Ren remained silent as the archaeologist sighed, seeming to expect no answer.

"Hmm?" Ren looked at Mikita, who was silently eating her breakfast; there was something strange about her...

He wondered mentally, 'What's wrong with her?' Did something happen when he was absent? Maybe he should ask Nojiko or Robin.

But even if something had happened, would that prevent her from greeting him? He was used to her distinctive laugh that he heard every day, so he felt a strange feeling when he didn't hear it today.

On Mikita's side, the girl ate her food silently and didn't speak. All the girls noticed her strange state since morning and were about to ask, but Robin stopped them, saying that Ren was the only one who could solve this problem.

Based on that, no one mentioned Mikita's issue again.

...

[After half an hour]

Ren stood with Nami and the rest of the girls on the island's beach within the dimension. After they finished their meal, He immediately invited them to what was called "Empowerment Ceremony," which everyone was excited about, except for one girl who seemed distracted.

Anyway, Ren decided he would address her issue later. For now, he had to guide the girls in harnessing the powers he gave them yesterday and quickly return to Alabasta.

"It's time, Nami." Ren stood in front of the orange-haired girl, holding A strange fruit.

"Goro Goro no Mi fruit, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that many consider the strongest Logia Devil Fruit in the world, Are you ready?"

Many of the girls looked at the fruit in shock. Although Ren showed it to them yesterday and gave it to them, hearing his confirmation about it being the strongest Logia Fruit was amazing. Giving it to Nami was even more amazing; this meant her power would become extremely terrifying!

"I was born ready, Captain!" Nami smiled enthusiastically. She might have been hesitant to eat the Devil Fruit if she was going to lose her ability to touch water and swim, but with the Captain's magical power, there was no need to worry about that.

"Here, just take one bite, beware, the taste is awful."

"Understood."

She nodded and took the fruit from Ren's hand.

She quickly took a small bite of the fruit and threw the rest away.

In the next moment, she felt the drastic changes happening in her body.

It was as if a violent electric current passed through her body, flesh, and veins.

She knew in that moment that her physique was undergoing radical changes; her body was no longer an ordinary human body.

She raised her hand to the sky and then brought it down with a fierce smile on her face.

*Crackle!!*

*Boom!!*

A small lightning bolt pierced the sky and struck the sea in front of her, spreading the sound of splashing water and white vapor, which quickly dissipated due to the wind.

Nami's path to becoming the Goddess of Thunder had just begun.
