'System, can I only take the fruit from the people I kill, or can I take it from the defeated people as well' Ethan was overjoyed when he saw the system's notices telling him that he could get the Omaeda Devil Fruit.

[You can't get devil fruit from defeated people, you can get devil fruit for people who are dead only, if someone dies near you and is a devil fruit user, the system can extract devil fruit from the dead person, but the system needs energy to do that and that's why You have to spend some points in order to extract them]

'I understand, order buy Omaeda's devil fruit' After Ethan commanded the system, a fruit appeared out of nowhere in front of Ethan, Ethan grabbed the devil fruit and looked at it closely. It was a gray-colored fruit with wave-like stripes.

"Ethan, where did this devil fruit come from?" Lucy exclaimed in exclamation as the fruit appeared out of nowhere.

'Dammit system, you should have put the fruit in a Inventory or anything similar, why are you showing it out of nowhere? You make me look so suspicious.' Ethan thought with annoyance.

[It is not the fault of the system, the system doesn't have Inventory or anything similar, so it's impossible to stored the fruit after buying it]

Ethan ignored the system, looked at Lucy, patted her head and said, "I'll tell you about that later."

Then Ethan looked at Zora and Kuina and said, "Since I defeated Omaeda, you're both OK to join my crew, right?"

"We both agree to join your crew." Kuina said with a smile, then continued, "Since Zora told you about her dream, I will tell you my dream too. My dream is to make a sword of the same or higher quality as the Supreme Grade and I want that sword to be the most famous in the world."

"And in order for my sword to be the most famous in the world, the wielder must be the strongest swordsman in the world." Kuina said while patting Zora's shoulder, a big smile on her face.

'Kuina's dream has changed, why has it changed?' Ethan thought but he didn't care too much. He looked at them and said "Let's go back to the ship."

[Zora and Kuina are applying to be a member of your ship, do you agree?

Yes

No]

'Yes'

[Zora and Kuina set as ship members: Zora and Kuina's talent increased by 50%]

[As a reward for accepting Zora as a member of the ship, the host will get a similar talent to Zora in wielding a sword.]

[As a reward for accepting Kuina as a member of the ship, the host will get the swordmanship skill for free and the skill level will be the same as Kuina's skill level.]

Ethan felt a torrent of information flowing into his mind, then looked at a sword on the ground and when he picked it up it felt like he had practiced the sword for many years and knew how to use it perfectly.

'I also got something unexpected when Alveda joined the crew' thought Ethan with a smile, Alveda took advantage of the system like all girls and increased her talent by 50% and in return he got a talent in the use of Busoshoku Haki.

When they got to the ship they found a group of men tied up in front of the ship with swollen and blue faces.

Everyone ignored the tied people as if they weren't there and boarded the ship, "Nami, Alvida, we're back and we've brought new members to the crew."

Alvida and Nami came out of the kitchen as soon as they heard Ethan's voice, Nami looked at Ethan and said, "You came just in time, I just finished making lunch."

"Let me introduce you to the members of my new crew and then we can eat."Ethan said while pointing at Kuina and Zora.

Kuina recognized Nami and said in amazement, "You're the girl who steals from pirates. I didn't expect you to join the pirates yourself."

Zora looked at Ethan and said in astonishment, "Is this your entire crew? Their numbers are small, considering Kuina and I on the crew will only be six."

Then she looked at Ethan skeptically, "Just as all the crew members are female except for you."

"Looks like you're trying to make some harem for yourself, I don't care what you want to do but if you come close to me or Kuina I'll cut your balls" When Ethan tried to say something Zora looked at him sharply and threatened him, Zora's words sent goose bumps all over Ethan's body.

While everyone was talking, Lucy crept into the kitchen and started eating lunch.

"Okay, since you guys know each other, let's go have lunch," said Ethan, with a pale face, imagining himself without balls.

Then everyone entered the kitchen, and as soon as they entered they saw Lucy stuffing the last remaining dish in her mouth very quickly, when Ethan saw this the corner of his mouth shivered.

"LUCYYYY, why did you eat all the food I made? Even Ethan hasn't tasted it yet," Nami shouted in anger.

"You can make more," Lucy said while chewing the last piece of lunch Nami made.

Nami wanted to scream more at Lucy, but Ethan grabbed her by the shoulder and said, "Calm down, Nami, I have plenty of provisions. It's okay for Lucy to eat a little more than usual."

"That's not the problem, she eats our food without permission and that's not right, and also stop being lenient with her," Nami said in annoyance.

Nami walked over to Lucy and pulled her up saying, "You're going to help me make the food this time."

Ethan sat at the table waiting for Lucy and Nami to prepare the food while thinking 'How am I going to seduce Zora? She has a strong will and won't be affected by the ship of lust, that's very annoying, and now I know why the system put a high reward on her.'

[You can use an aphrodisiac like you did with Lucy]

'No, it's a bad idea, she's not a fool like Lucy. She will quickly find out that I gave her an aphrodisiac and after I have sex with her she will definitely cut my balls.' Ethan thought as his face turned pale as he thought about it.

'Wait, I have an idea that might work' Ethan thought as the corner of his mouth rose into a smile.
