บท 58: Chapter 58: Miss Love Duck Mark II (I)
Ben woke to see Alvida in his arms. "An angel," he whispered and kissed her forehead. Alvida smiled. He turned around to see Belo Betty gone. He gently left the bed. Alvida must have been tired after the fight and last night. Ben stretched his arms and walked into the living room nude. He walked towards the table and saw a note and a transponder snail. He picked up the note and it read "Call me! BB."
Ben chuckled. ""Aaaah!" he heard a scream. He turned to see Kaya all red. "You pervert wear some clothes. There are decent people here," she screamed. Ben turned to Kaya and showed more of his penis.
"You will be seeing much more and closely," he teased.
"Like hell I would," she replied.
"Oh, maybe I could ask Nojiko or Honey to look at," Ben teased again.
"No, I mean," she stammered.
Ben laughed. "Just kidding," he said and walked into the room to get his clothes and then went to the shower.
"Pervert," she sighed.
Ben got out of the shower pretty quickly however there was only one bathroom, so the girls were going to take a while. He decided to train outside for a bit.
Ben thought back to Kaya full beast form and how that was able to fly. Ben transformed into his hybrid. He concentrated on his wings and tried to make them flap. He didn't get any movement. He tried again. There was still no movement. Ben spent another two hours until finally he got one of the wings to flap.
"Progress," he said. At this moment the girls were ready to leave.
"Morning my love," Alvida greeted.
"Morning," Honey said with a smile on her face.
"Pervert," Kaya said with a blush.
"Morning Captain," Nojiko excitedly said and added, " I could not follow the ritual so I will do it tonight."
Ben sighed, "That is…,"
"Yes you should," Alvida interrupted Ben and then put a thumbs up.
"Also did something happen between you and Kaya," Nojiko questioned and added, "She seems a bit more red."
"Well," Ben was about to say.
"No nothing," Kaya shouted.
The girls giggled.
"So what were you doing here my love?" Alvida asked.
"During our battle, Kaya was able to fly. Our wings are pretty similar so I should be able to fly as well," Ben replied and added, "However its slow progress."
"I was able to fly?" Kaya questioned.
"You don't remember? You attacked Ben in your hybrid form. You gave him a few hits to the face," Nojiko replied.
"Whatt???" Kaya said in horror. Kaya did not know this. She was now very worried and upset.
Ben saw her face change and walked towards her and said, "It was fine, you beat Chew. You helped out. I will always come and protect you." He then brought her into a hug.
Kaya calmed down a bit and enjoyed Ben's embrace. Honey cleared her throat.
Ben smiled and went to hug Honey. "Someone missed me," Ben said.
Honey nodded and said, "Maybe." Ben thought this was adorable.
"Pervert," Kaya hissed.
Ben let Honey go and summarised, "Belo Betty has temporarily left our crew to do some of our business. As you know she was part of the Revolutionary Army commander. She said she will be back soon. She has given us a way to communicate so we can talk."
"I know we talked about this my love," Alvida replied.
"Well she was another pervert with her breast hanging out but I am going to miss her," Kaya said.
"She was dependable and very strong. She took care of the Marines and the fishman," Honey said with a hint of sadness in her voice.
"I didn't know her much but she seemed good and I hope she will be back soon," Nojiko exclaimed.
"She will be back so let us get stronger for her sake and our sake," Ben announced.
The girls nodded in approval.
Nojiko went to lock her place up. Ben put her hand around her shoulder and comforted her, "We will come back eventually."
"I know. This place has both good memories and bad memories," Nojiko replied.
"We will make more memories, good and bad together," Ben firmly replied and pulled her into a hug.
"Thank you," Nojiko said.
"Let's go on our new adventure," Ben said. They left the house with the girls and Nojiko looked one last time before looking forward to her new adventure with her Captain, her man and the crew.
As they were heading to the ship. Genzo was waiting at the crossroads.
"Leaving without saying anything," Genzo said.
"No, thank you for taking care of me and Nami when my mum died," Nojiko replied.
Genzo chucked, "You have come a long way with your sister. I wish you the very best. I will take care of your garden while you are gone."
He then looked at Ben and said, "Thank you. You saved the village. We will be eternally grateful for this."
Ben admired his sincerity and said, "I do what I need for my crew."
He then glared and said, "If you hurt her, I will hunt you down."
Ben chuckled and pulled Nojiko in for a hug and kissed her check. "I will take good care of her," Ben said.
"Hey," Nojiko quietly said.
"Well got to go," he said as he grabbed Nojiko`s and Kaya`s hand and ran.
The girls said a quick bye and ran away.
"Youth," Genzo said.
Ben and the girls laughed as they approached the Miss Love Duck. They had docked it in a less obvious place. The ship was there. He looked around and saw no one around them.
"Okay, let's do it," he muttered to himself.
"Girls, you know about the system`s rewards," Ben said.
Kaya and Nojiko looked confused. "No," they said together.
"You didn't explain, Alvida," Ben asked.
"No entirety, my love. I usually only explain the rules of the harem mainly and the quests briefly," Alvida replied.
"Okay, thanks," Ben said.
"Kaya, Nojiko. I have a system. A power which lets me receive quests and rewards. Some of these quests are about defeating people like Arlong or Kuro. Other quests are about a bit sexual in nature," he explained. He looked at Kaya when he said the last bit.
"The latest of the quest was an upgrade to the ship once I had my sixth crew member join you, Nojiko," Ben continued to explain. The two girls nodded but still confused.
(Sweetie, Redeem Instant Upgrade to Miss Love Duck II)
[Yes Of course, here you go]
Ben thought that may work. He had thought back to meeting Aphrodite, if that was her, and focused on the mind. The system has its own mind. It has a female voice so maybe if I treat her like a lover then maybe. However he did not want to push his luck too much.
(Thank you Sweetie)
[Hehehehhe]
Strange, he thought.
The Miss Love Duck was covered in a bright light. The light was so strong Ben and the girls had to look away. When they looked back the ship had some familiar features however there were noticeable differences and big ones.
The ship was pink and the white swan with a heart as the eyes was the figurehead as before. However the ship had grown in size. The ship was about 75 meters long. This was double the length of the Thousand Sunny. There was a tower control type building at the beginning of the ship, similar to modern. The ship had three masts however they looked bigger. The mast still had heart signs. Below the deck of the ship, three levels could be seen from the outside.
"Wow," Ben said in surprise.
Honey and Kaya were both speechless.
"Impressive, my love," Alvida said in shock.
"I…" Nojiko uttered in shock as well.
"Let's have a look on board our new home," Ben said.
There was a ramp connecting the coast and the middle part of the ship. The ramp was wide and easy to access. They boarded via the ramp. The deck looked massive. They could see the control tower.
"I have not seen this type of structure on a ship before," Kaya said.
"It's a control tower. This would typically house the bridge, where the captain and crew would control the ship," Ben replied.
"So it is a fancy building for the steering wheel for the ship," Nojiko replied.
"Yes but there is usually more equipment to help the ship navigate," Ben answered.
Nojiko nodded.
They walked into the control tower. They saw a case of stairs leading to the top and bottom. The room in front of them was empty. Ben and the girls took the stairs upstairs.
The bridge was equipped with a variety of navigation and communication equipment, including radar, sonar, GPS, and radios. However they all looked like they were not working. They had power however it was all blank. Ben thought about the quest and one of the rewards was a Satellite. There was also a series of monitors which looked like the ship diagram. The rest looks like it was for operating the ship's engines and other machinery.
"This looks similar to the labs we have found, my love," Alvida commented.
"Yes that is correct," Ben replied.
"Like the one on the Gold Island with the giant robots?" Kaya asked.
"Giant robots?" Nojiko questioned.
"They're like huge men but all machine," Ben attempted to explain.
"Okay," Nojiko said, a bit confused.
"Actually looking at this diagram, there seem to be two metal bars going across the bottom of the ship. Almost like those mechs might fit to the bottom," Ben said.
"That would be good," Honey replied.
"Yes for sure," Kaya added.
"This looks very fancy, my love. We might need help operating this." Alvida pointed out.
"Yes you are right," Ben replied.
"So let's work on growing the harem harder my love," she said back with a straight face.
Ben smiled.
Kaya cleared her throat.
"Okay, let's move to the lower deck and check those floors out," Ben said.
Ben and the girls walked down the stairs and on the deck. The stairs down looked like they connected to the first lower floor. Ben thought that the back of the ship must also connect below and wanted to see the deck floor first before going deeper. They walked out to the back of the ship where there was a door. They opened the door and the dining room and kitchen.
"This is much bigger," Kaya said.
The dining room had a long table like the Vikings` once had.
"The dining room could fit at least 20 people," Nojiko said.
"Yes, perfect for my love," Alvida commented.
"Pervert," she said looking towards Ben.
"Let's go downstairs," Ben said.
They went down stairs. They saw the first floor and there were 10 rooms on each side. The rooms on the right were marked with a number then R and another number. While the rooms on the left were marked with a number then L and a number. The hallway connected back to the tower at the front of the ship.
"1R1. Lets see what is inside this one," Ben said.
Ben opened the first door and saw a spacious room. The bed was a king-size, four-poster bed, and the cupboard was built into the wall.
"Wow my love," Alvida said.
"Wow for sure," Ben replied.
"Massive," Nojiko said.
"I guess this will be that Captain's room," Kaya asked.
"Yeah it can be. There are plenty of rooms, so you girls can take any you like," Ben said.
"I will stay near my love," Alvida declared.
Honey looked at Ben as well.
"Sure, it sounds good and other girls can join if they like," Ben said.
Kaya took 1R2, Honey took 1L1 and Nojiko took 1L2. Alvida insisted that she would stay with Ben.
Ben marked 1R3 for HQ and 1L3 for Belo Betty.
The girls expect Alvida had gone to their room. Their belongings were in Ben`s room (1R1) in the cupboard so they wanted to move it out. They didn't have many items so it was light. Kaya, who had the most, only had a suitcase. Ben thought he should take the girl shopping.
