Chapter 139 139: Harvest!!
Kuja Palace — Amazon Lily
Inside the palace on Amazon Lily, the pink bed was in complete disarray, and the room carried a faintly intimate atmosphere.
Luffy suddenly opened his eyes.
The sudden movement startled Boa Hancock.
Her long legs slipped slightly as she knelt, causing her to nearly collapse completely into Luffy's arms.
Her black hair cascaded down, brushing against Luffy's cheek, carrying a faint fragrance.
Because of the sudden situation and the awkward position, Hancock's already flushed face turned even redder.
Her thin night robe faintly revealed the smooth, jade-like skin beneath.
Luffy could clearly feel the soft curves and warmth of the body pressed against him.
The striking view, the extremely intimate posture, and the rare shy expression on the beautiful Pirate Empress left Luffy completely stunned.
The last time he experienced such visual shock…
was back on Sabaody Archipelago.
After a long moment, Hancock still showed no intention of moving.
"—Ahem!"
Luffy coughed lightly, breaking the silence.
The sound jolted Hancock awake from her daze.
Her face turned crimson as she hurriedly got up and knelt beside the bed.
"L-Luffy-sama… i-it's not what you think! P-please allow me to explain!"
She suddenly became flustered and tongue-tied.
Luffy calmed down as well.
"It's okay. Take your time."
He suspected there must be some misunderstanding.
After all, they had practically never met before.
And judging from the situation, she might even be his savior.
He should at least listen patiently.
"Th-this…!"
Seeing Luffy's gentle smile, Hancock's mind turned completely blank.
Her head filled with nothing but Luffy's smile.
She panicked.
Oh no…! What if Luffy-sama thinks I'm an improper woman?!
In that instant, Hancock felt as if the sky had collapsed.
Meanwhile, watching her rapidly changing expressions, Luffy suddenly had a bad feeling.
Sure enough—
The next moment Hancock seemed to gather all her courage.
"Luffy-sama… I—I love you!!"
The air suddenly fell silent.
"…Ahem."
Luffy rubbed his forehead helplessly.
Just as he expected.
Half an Hour Later
"So… all of that happened while I was unconscious?"
Luffy rubbed his temples with a slight headache.
He looked at Hancock sitting across from him.
Now she had changed back into her purple cheongsam, which tightly outlined her breathtaking curves—especially her long, slender legs.
"Yes!"
Hancock nodded repeatedly.
Her eyes—normally cold toward others—were now filled with admiration.
In her mind, she kept replaying the scene of Luffy defeating the Five Elders.
For her, the Celestial Dragons and the World Government were the source of endless nightmares.
The Five Elders were the rulers of the world itself.
She both hated and feared them.
Yet the man she loved had publicly dragged those so-called gods down from their throne.
How could she not admire him?
How could she not fall for him?
"—Uh…"
Luffy felt his scalp tingle under her intense gaze.
"Well… I should go check on Jinbe and the others."
The moment he finished speaking, blue lightning arcs surged across his body.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
Men were normally forbidden from entering Amazon Lily.
Luffy was only an exception.
The others had been placed on a nearby island.
Hancock stood there blankly, her hands clasped to her chest as she sighed in relief.
"Thank goodness…"
"Luffy-sama didn't blame me…"
"And… he didn't reject my confession."
Suddenly she froze.
"Luffy hasn't eaten yet!"
"No! I have to make lunch for him!"
Like a girl in love, Hancock rushed out of the room.
Soon—
The entire Kuja Kingdom burst into activity.
A Nearby Uninhabited Island
Luffy didn't go to Jinbe immediately.
Instead, he arrived at a deserted island.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, looking somewhat disappointed.
The Life Essence he had originally obtained was meant as a gift for Silvers Rayleigh.
That was why he had guarded it so carefully.
"…Sigh."
But now it was too late to change anything.
Still, the world was vast—there would surely be another solution.
"System, calculate my rewards."
System Settlement
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission: "Rescue Ace / Display the Authority of an Emperor."]
Rewards:
1️⃣ Mera Mera no Mi (System Version)
2️⃣ Wish Points: 89.0
Wish Points:
A mysterious energy capable of fulfilling wishes.
Luffy's eyes instantly lit up.
"Anything?"
[If the points are sufficient, any wish can be fulfilled.]
"How many points for Life Essence?"
[80.0]
"Exchange it!"
Luffy jumped up excitedly.
"Finally… finally!"
[Reminder: Unused Wish Points expire after 24 hours.]
"They expire?!"
Luffy had never heard of such a thing.
[Interpretation rights belong to the System.]
"…But I don't really need anything else."
Luffy frowned.
Wish Points were powerful—but expensive.
If the wish was too outrageous, the cost would be astronomical.
"System… recommend something with the best value."
He directly handed the decision to the System.
Surely it wouldn't trick him.
System Recommendation

Luffy almost collapsed.
"Photo collections? Eternal Pose? What do I need those for?!"
"System… you're unbelievable!"
But then his eyes landed on something else.
Devil Fruit Locator
(Zoan — Mythical Model: Bat Fruit, Vampire Form)
Function: Locate an uneaten Devil Fruit of the specified type.
The Vampire Fruit was one of the most powerful fruits rumored in the world.
At minimum, it granted eternal youth and longevity.
Luffy already knew it was somewhere in Sleepy Town, but finding it across the vast seas would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Devil Fruit Fusion
"System, fuse the Mera Mera no Mi!"
Luffy sat cross-legged on the ground.
He was already familiar with the process.
[Fusion Progress: 1%… 50%… 100%]
BOOM!!
A blazing sun-like flame erupted from Luffy's body.
Centered on him, waves of fire spread outward in expanding circles.
Crackling flames roared.
From afar, Luffy looked like a walking fireball.
The air twisted from the heat.
A massive sphere of fire spread across the land.
Grass burned to ash.
Soil turned black.
The entire island became a fiery inferno.
Golden flames surged into the sky.
The sea steamed.
The sky turned red.
After a long time, the flames around Luffy faded.
But the fire burning across the island…
might remain for a very long time.
