One Piece: I'm Destined to Be the Son-in-Law King!-Chapter 138: Such a Beautiful Back, Let’s Do Some Cupping

Hawaii Island, a jewel of the New World.

This island is a top spot for travelers. Sunny beaches are crowded with excited tourists ready to have fun.

Holiday Beach was bursting with life.

"Whoo-hoo!" Barto yelled. He wore bright beach shorts and ran toward the ocean with his friends. He had a big swimming ring around his waist because Devil Fruit users can't swim.

The other Marines from the 11th Division were also enjoying the beach.

Suddenly, the crowd stirred with excitement.

"Wow, she's gorgeous!" someone shouted.

"What a beauty!" another voice chimed in.

"I wish I could go on a date with her!"

All the men were staring, their eyes wide with admiration, completely captivated by Hina.

Hina strolled gracefully, wearing pink sunglasses and a sexy wine-red bikini. Her body looked perfect, and she had a grown-up confidence that drew everyone's attention. She sat on a beach chair next to Roya.

She really knows how to get people's attention! Roya thought, impressed.

"Ugh, I'd rather be shopping," Hina said, sighing and taking a sip of juice.

As a Devil Fruit user, she couldn't really enjoy the ocean. She'd much rather be browsing the shops, but she had no one to go with.

Smoker, that blockhead, has no romance in him! she thought.

The only other women in the 11th Division were Lu Yun and Tashigi. Lu Yun didn't care about shopping, and Tashigi? She just followed Smoker around all the time.

Hina flipped over on her beach chair and lay on her stomach, her back smooth and inviting. Roya felt like giving her a cupping massage.

Hina turned her head to Roya. "Rear Admiral Roya, don't you think we should get more women in our division? I'm so bored!"

"I agree!" Roya said, rolling his eyes.

Does she think I don't want that? he wondered. The problem is, who would want to join?

There weren't many women in the Marines to begin with, and everyone wanted them. Big groups like Vice Admiral Tsuru's all-female fleet always got first pick. The 11th Division didn't stand a chance.

What could we even offer them? he wondered.

I can't just rely on my good looks, can I?

"Hmm? Maybe it's not impossible," Roya said, rubbing his chin. He was definitely one of the younger, more attractive officers. And if Smoker could lose that grumpy look, he'd have plenty of fans too.

Maybe I should make a recruitment video for the 11th Division?

Right now, the division only had a little over 300 Marines, way less than the 1,000 it should have. It definitely needed to grow.

Roya frowned, thinking hard. Suddenly, the sun was blocked, and he felt like two mountains were pressing down on him.

"Senior."

"Oh, it's Lu Yun." Roya looked up, his eyes lighting up.

Lu Yun wore a cute yellow swimsuit. She held her chest with both hands and kept her legs together, looking uncomfortable in the beach setting. Her face was a little red.

If she wore stockings, they'd leave marks, wouldn't they? Roya thought.

"Tsk."

"Senior!" Lu Yun's face turned even redder when she saw Roya staring. She crossed her arms and glared at him.

Her chest bounced as she moved.

Like jelly.

"Hiss--" Roya gasped.

This girl is hiding a lot.

Lu Yun looked down, confused by Roya's gaze. She realized her body was blocking her view, and her cheeks flushed. She wanted to cover herself, but wasn't sure if she should.

Smoke seemed to rise from her head.

Roya chuckled at his flustered adjutant.

She's never been shy when checking _me out, so why is she so embarrassed now? I need to change that._

Roya stood up and put his hands on Lu Yun's shoulders. The girl stiffened.

"Lie on the chair."

"Huh?"

"Just do it. I'm putting sunscreen on you." Roya smiled and gently pushed her onto the beach chair. He squeezed sunscreen into his hands and rubbed them together, trying to look serious.

"You're always inside, your skin is too sensitive. You'll get sunburned if you don't wear sunscreen."

"Oh, will I?" Lu Yun widened her eyes, seriously considering the possibility of sunburn. As a researcher, she always thought about problems--

Suddenly, she felt something cool spread across her back!

"Ah!"

A moment later, Lu Yun slumped on the beach chair, completely limp and weak. Her eyes swirled.

Roya smacked his lips, looked at Hina who was watching, and held up his sunscreen-covered hand. "Hina, want me to put some on you too?"

"Sure, I don't want to get a tan." Hina casually lay down and unbuttoned her bikini top.

Roya stared at her smooth back, lost in thought.

You're making this too easy! It's awkward!

"Hurry up," Hina urged.

"Oh, and could you massage my shoulders? They've been sore lately."

"Alright!"

Roya listlessly applied oil and massaged Hina's shoulders, like an old man giving a back rub at a bathhouse.

He wasn't flustered at all.

"Is this good?"

"A little harder."

"Okay!"

"Where's Smoker?"

"That idiot went to buy ice cream."

"Okay."

A dozen minutes later, Roya wiped his sweat.

Looking at Hina's slick back, he couldn't help but have some naughty thoughts.

"Hina, how about I give you some cupping?"

"Cupping? What's that?"

"It's a special kind of massage from Hana no Kuni (Flower Country). It's really good for relieving muscle pain."

"Let's try it! I'm interested."

----

On the other side of the beach, Caesar was relaxing on a beach chair, surrounded by girls from the island's biggest nightclub. He had been invited to Hawaii Island for a vacation.

"Shurorororo, beach, beauties, this is paradise!"

"I'm glad you like it." Monet sat next to him, her legs crossed, holding a glass of iced drink.

"You girls go play somewhere else." Monet shooed them away and turned to Caesar. "Mr. Caesar, if you give us the Artificial Devil Fruit technology, money is no problem."

"Shurorororo, I've already said that making Artificial Devil Fruits needs my special scientific skills." Caesar smiled wickedly.

If I sell the technology to Don Quixote, it's a one-time deal. I'm not stupid.

Using my special technology to keep making money is the best way.

Money always runs out!

"I never thought the singer from Girls' Ship was actually an executive of the Don Quixote Family."

"It's a disguise to get close to you." Monet couldn't help it. Her boss was rushing her, so she had to reveal her hand to Caesar. She had learned a lot about him in the past few weeks.

He's arrogant, stupid, sinister, and greedy. If the price is right, I can win him over.

The problem was that Caesar worked for the World Government. To make Artificial Devil Fruits for the Family, he'd have to quit.

But that wouldn't help him. He might even become a wanted criminal. I have to find a way to make him break with the World Government!

"Mr. Caesar, I have a question." A coldness crept into Monet's eyes. "Those scary weapons you invented, are they better than Vegapunk's?"

"Of course they are, you fool!" Caesar's eyes turned red. He was jealous of Vegapunk. When it comes to weapons of mass destruction, I'm number one!

Monet smiled. "Oh? How can you prove that?"

"Well..." Caesar was speechless.

The easiest way to prove it is to use them, but my best weapon, "Slime," is at the research lab on Punk Hazard. I can't use it here.

"Hey, Mr. Caesar." Monet showed her true colors.

"Our Don Quixote Family trades weapons. If you sell your weapons to us, you can make lots of money and see them in action!"

"Hmm." Caesar's eyes lit up.

That makes sense! I made these weapons to be used. I can see how they work and make them even better.

"Shurorororo!"
