Third Person POV
On island in the sea, East Blue.

...
...
"Congratulations, Nami, you ate the Eikon Eikon no Mi, Model: Garuda!" Luffy said happily and looked at Nami's status in the system.

-----------------------------
[Nami] (Navigator)
Devil Fruit: None -> Eikon Eikon no Mi, Model: Garuda - E
Vitality – E -> C
Strength – E -> C
Defense – E -> C
Speed - E -> B
Spirit – C -> B
(– As a member of your crew, all your talents increase by 100%)
-----------------------------
"What?!" Nami exclaimed, feeling the changes in her body like never before in her entire life; she seemed to be experiencing immediate transformations upon consuming the fruit.

"Are you feeling the effects already? HAHAHAHA! That's good..." Luffy commented, watching Nami look at her hands in disbelief as some lines of green energy appeared and disappeared rapidly, as she didn't have much control.

Everyone around was curious about these changes the navigator and the captain were talking about because Nami didn't seem to have changed physically in the eyes of the group.

"Luffy, I feel much stronger for some reason; it's like I'm overflowing with energy!" Nami forgot about the fact that she had depression after seeing billions of berries disappear before her eyes for a new feeling of ecstasy at this moment, feeling the changes in her body.

"Hahahahaahaha. That's how it is; let's do a test. Punch me now! I want to see what you're capable of right now!" Luffy spoke excitedly, and Nami agreed with the captain.

Approaching him, under the gaze of everyone, she leaned back with her arm and punched Luffy in the chest, who was using no support other than his own physical strength to withstand the blow.

*BOOM!*
Nami punched Luffy point-blank, causing him to recoil 10 meters with the impact in the next moment, while his feet were dragged by the beach sand.

"?!" The expression of surprise was collective because they saw her try to punch Luffy a moment ago without even scratching his body. Even Luffy looked at her with some amusement.

Now she had much stronger strength, even though, despite everything, she only made him retreat a few meters. But this was a surprising change in the captain's opinion, as she used to be the weakest in the group until a moment ago!

"Hahaha!" Luffy began to laugh while massaging the part hit by her punch.

"I can say I felt that, Nami! Good job, but your potential is much more than that!" Luffy was getting more and more excited. One thing is to be a strong captain and have to do everything for the crew while being practically a babysitter in the group; another is to have capable and reliable companions that Luffy could trust for tasks too dangerous for most people. He wanted a crew like that.

"Luffy, how did I become so strong?!" Nami knew she had changed, but her punch was so powerful that it surprised her to the core; she would have killed a normal person with that. She still had difficulty absorbing this information.

"Nami... Don't underestimate yourself; this is just an initial strength. As far as I know, the physical specialty of your fruit is agility and mobility, as you control the wind and can fly with wings. Not to mention, you can create giant claws and control them within a certain range, making the versatility of your abilities very powerful—even more versatile than my Eikon!"
"I can fly? Control the wind and even create those claws?!" Nami was incredulous at this information, becoming more and more stunned as she realized how powerful her Devil Fruit was.

"Do you think 5 billion were just for you to increase your physical abilities?" Luffy teased her.

"I... Thank you..." She looked at Luffy for a while and thanked him, going to him and giving him a sincere, strong hug. No one had ever done something so grand for her before; there was no way she couldn't be moved.

"Thank you! I don't know what else to say, but no one has ever done something like this for me before..." She admitted in the midst of the hug with these very words, showing her true gratitude as tears began to run down her cheeks and a content smile appeared.

Luffy returned the hug as his arms enveloped her back and waist.

"Nami... Don't worry; I always saw potential in you, as someone reliable from the moment I laid eyes on you in that Buggy's cage," Luffy said sincerely.

"But you turned me into a servant and made me clean your ship!" She complained as she leaned back and punched Luffy's chest with feigned anger.

"Well... Someone wanted to take all my treasures at the time; I had to punish that person in a certain way," Luffy smiled, looking at a raised-eyebrow Nami.

"Fair enough..." Nami admitted in the end.

"Could you two stop flirting in front of the group?" Lami scoffed, interrupting Luffy and Nami from continuing this kind of conversation as they embraced so intimately in front of them.

"This time, I have to agree with the emo here..." Reiju said.

"Who are you calling emo, curly eyebrows!" Lami expressed her anger.

"Hm?! Call me that again, and I'll kick your butt!" Reiju hadn't liked this woman from the beginning.

"Wanna try? I'll be happy to cut someone like you!" Lami growled.

"Could you stop fighting too! Where did this come from?!" Kuina complained from the side.

Luffy sighed at this too, foreseeing that this fight would be a recurring event during their journeys in the next years or decades together.

"Stop this; I want to celebrate with the group right now. We have two giant prawns to eat and plenty of drinks in stock, so I want to have a feast here, not see idiots fighting!" Luffy stepped away from Nami and went to them with the navigator in tow.

"Feast!" Jhonny, Yosaku, and Usopp cheered immediately, knowing the experience of the parties made in the last few days on the ship; they could indulge in food and drink to their heart's content.

It didn't take long, and the beach quickly filled with utensils that Luffy took from the ship. Using his fruit, he enlarged the size and reduced the weight to facilitate Reiju's work with the food.

"So Luffy, you mentioned the ability to exchange berries for things; you just skimmed over something like that. How exactly is that? No one should do that just like that..." Lami looked suspiciously at Luffy, who was now drinking sake with Zoro by his side, as they seemed to be the people who loved this type of alcoholic beverage the most in the crew.

"Hm?! It's true; I didn't explain that properly. As I said, I can buy anything that no one has claimed..." Luffy looked at the doubtful faces around him, as the question attracted everyone's attention, even Reiju stopped cooking and seasoning the prawn meat to listen at this moment.

"The concept isn't difficult, but explaining what a system is complicated for them..." Luffy murmured and continued his reasoning with the group.

"The money I touch and make disappear isn't the power of my fruit shrinking its size. Instead, it's transferred to a space where I can no longer withdraw it as berries. But I can exchange the amount of money for other things. As I mentioned before, I can't take things that others already have. For example, I can't take Mihawk's Yoru, but I can take Gold D. Roger's sword, the former Pirate King, if I have the money since it's not in anyone's possession at the moment." Luffy didn't speak about the system itself, but it seemed that the smarter members of the group understood the concept.

"That's incredible! Are you saying you can buy most things in this world? That explains the manual of those techniques, but didn't it belong to someone already?" Kuina said surprised and asked curiously.

"As long as it's not a weapon or a fruit with a person, things like that manual, locked in deposits, I can take..." Luffy clarified.

"And where does this money go? It can't just cease to exist when you buy something, right?" Nami asked alarmed and concerned about the idea of gold ceasing to exist.

"That is very concerning, Captain! With this, the value of gold would skyrocket due to scarcity, creating chaos in the world economy and making significant changes in monetary prices. With this kind of global crisis, many countries will be wiped off the map!" Bepo shouted, making everyone, without exception, look at him with a shocked expression.

'How can this mink bear understand economic concepts?!' Luffy couldn't help but be surprised by this.

The others looked at Bepo with various expressions, some trying to understand what was behind his words, others had shocked expressions like Luffy, as they had some idea of the concepts and logic behind this theory, as the captain was thinking. However, for everyone, it was surprising that it was Bepo who said this before anyone else, in this situation.

"Well... actually, this doesn't affect the world..." Luffy said a little embarrassed still but continued.

"Gold and money simply don't disappear from the world; they are sent as far away as possible, so I can't access them again. Since that wouldn't be fair, even with a cheat like this, it wouldn't be cool for me to have infinite money while acquiring all the valuable items in the world, right? Now some lucky person should come across some part of this hidden gold, probably on the other side of the world right now." Luffy clarified.

"I understand... but it's still great to be able to do this..." Usopp muttered.

"Luffy, you've already spent 7 billion on the manual and Nami's fruit. Do we need to have Lami catch more pirates and take them to the Marines?" Kuina posed a logical question.

"You have a good point, Kuina, but I want to handle it the same way. There's still 920 million left in the system. Money isn't a more significant problem for us right now, but even so, I want to clean this sea of those with higher bounties. Either we hand them over to the Marines or exterminate them all, but I don't think we've become a cruel crew that kills in cold blood, right? So let's hand them over to the Marines while we still have the chance." Luffy said, as he wanted to get rid of these people in the East Blue before leaving this sea. As soon as he spoke, his gaze shifted to Lami sitting, while drinking a beer.

"Is everything okay with you? I don't want to take advantage of you, but if you're willing to continue, I'd appreciate it..." Luffy spoke to her. If she wasn't satisfied, they could simply go to a base and throw the captured pirates at her.

"If this gang you caught and one more is missing, there's no reason not to continue doing this since I'm starting to get used to it..." Lami scoffed.

"Great, now let's stop with boring topics and continue our feast!" Luffy said, and Reiju already had the meat ready for them to eat as she placed it on a giant plate.

"Here..." Reiju offered, and their group began to eat while drinking their beverages.

"What delicious meat!"
"Luffy was right; it's so good!"
"Thank you, Mr. Raccoon, for the food!"
"Do you know you're talking to a dead being, Shirahoshi?"
"Hehehehehehehe!"

After that, darkness took over the sky, but the group didn't seem to mind as they continued their festivities without interruptions.

"HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!"
"HEHEHEHEHE"
"SHARSHARSHARSHARSHAR!"
"What a bunch of idiots..."
"But you have to admit it's funny. HAHAHAHA"
"What kind of group is this..."
"Brother Usopp is so funny."
"Hahahahahahahahaha!"

While the feast continued, the antics between Usopp and the others were created with many of the crew already drunk. This kind of atmosphere continued until they lost consciousness in the middle of the night.

The next day.

'What a hellish hangover...' Luffy woke up with a strong headache the next day.

"Hm?" He found himself in the middle of the beach area with Lami and Reiju on each of his arms. They hadn't slept together, as everyone was still clothed, but it didn't stop him from being surprised by it.

"They seemed like water and oil, to the point where I thought they would hate each other from that first contact yesterday. But it seems I was wrong since they seem to be in harmony. That's good." Luffy smiled satisfied at the two women, who slept peacefully in his arms.

"As much as I like being between two beauties, I have things to do this morning." Luffy complained to himself and carefully removed his arms from the girls and got up without waking them.

As soon as he got up, he saw the state of his crew.

They were scattered all over the beach quite stupidly. Nami and Kuina were hugging in a corner of the sand, Shirahoshi was with Megalo, Jhonny and Yosaku were lying side by side in a corner, Usopp used Chouchou as a stuffed toy, Yamato was in a corner near where Luffy was with the girls, alone while snoring on her back. The funniest was Bepo, who slept on top of a rock.

'This is going to give him a hell of a backache...' Luffy felt for his companion.

But to Luffy's surprise, when he looked for the swordsman of the group, wondering if he had lost again, he noticed Zoro drinking in front of yesterday's old bonfire.

"You woke up, Captain!" He greeted Luffy, smiling.

"Damn, Zoro, you can sometimes drink more than me! Aren't you hungover?" Luffy spoke a bit surprised.

"I guess not..." Zoro shrugged.

"Whatever, I'm going to do some things, don't bother me right now." Luffy said and went to the beach, where there were the marine boats and the boat Lami used.

Luffy went to a more secluded corner and took a box from his pocket containing his official ship, the Black Pearl—a name he had decided on a few days ago. He took it out of the box and resized it to its normal size in front of him.

Seeing the comical boat, he didn't need any effort to open the system the next moment.

[System: Open.]
[Shop – Points: 920,000,000.]
'Selecting the ship in front of him.'
[Upgrade a Ship to Level 2. Price: 500,000,000 Berries]
[This option does not include furniture and equipment; they must be purchased separately.]
[Yes]/[No]
'Yes'

A new screen appeared before Luffy, showing the modifications that would happen to the ship. With this, he could choose the color, flag, and several other options for the ship without changing its soul.

'This is better than I thought! It won't be a worse ship than the Thousand Sunny from the original story. It might even undergo another evolution!' Luffy celebrated internally.

After spending a few minutes shaping the ship model in the 3D system, a confirmation question appeared again once he finished.

[Upgrade Level 2 + Equipment for the Ship: 700,000,000.]
'Yes.' Sure of his choices, he confirmed.

'That's 700 million, so I expect a ship even superior to the Thousand Sunny, which the original Luffy spent 300 million on without labor.'

As soon as he clicked yes, his money dropped to 220 million, and the ship in front of him with a goat's head began to dismantle. Luffy quickly used his power to muffle the sound intending not to wake anyone up. He wanted to see the stunned looks on everyone's faces when they saw the ship in front of them for the first time.

The ship silently started to disassemble, with the pieces floating in the space around it, as it unraveled and remodeled with other pieces appearing out of nowhere.

A massive Adam wood emerged, forming the skeleton and base of the ship, a sight to behold as the ship magically assembled in front of him.

Zoro looked incredulous at this scene, as he was the only one awake, wondering what his captain was doing a little away from the ship on his own. He couldn't help but drop his drink when he saw the scene before him. Zoro saw Luffy take out the ship he received from Kaya, and soon after, the ship began to disassemble by some strange force and was being reconstructed as something new, something black and powerful, much larger in size.

"How is this possible?" He asked with disbelief, watching the ship being reformed in front of him, transforming into something new, something formidable.

A moment later, Luffy looked at the ship in front of him, satisfied.

'It may not be a battleship the size of Krieg's, but it's certainly like a navy warship, much better than those of the Buster Call! Not to mention the difference between this and the ones they've been using so far is staggering!'

"What are you doing here, so close! I don't like you!" Luffy heard Reiju's voice growling from the beach, and his eyes went directly to the duo fighting early in the morning.

"It seems I was hasty in thinking they would get along..." Luffy said mentally, feeling a bit tired.

"What did you say, curly eyebrows! Do you think I want to be by your side? I'll cut your feathers and put them on your back!" Lami growled.

"Threaten me one more time, and I'll kick you straight into the sea!" Reiju gritted her teeth.

"I don't want you near me!"
"Get out of here!"

Both said at the same time and then stared at each other with sparks crossing their eyes.

"What is this early in the morning!" Nami complained as she got up next to Kuina.

"These two are fighting again..." Kuina said beside her.

"What a headache..." Jhonny complained.

"This noise doesn't help at all..." Yosaku said beside him.

"Sharky!"
"You're right, Lami-Sama and Reiju-Sama are so scary this morning..." Shirahoshi cried next to Megalo.

"Hm? What is this noise early in the morning!" Yamato got up, yawning.

"Bark! Bark!" Chouchou complained, while Usopp quietly got up next to him.

Zoro was still standing, looking at the new ship now next to the marines, wondering if he had drunk too much or if he was still sleeping and dreaming.

"Hey, Luffy! Hm?! WHERE DID THIS SHIP COME FROM?!" Nami shouted in surprise at Luffy on the beach. She went to find the captain to resolve the situation between the girls and saw him standing in front of a black warship with the same Holly Roger as Luffy's cloak, a skull with crossed bones, wearing a straw hat.

"Hm? You guys finally woke up! Look, isn't it obvious? This is our official ship, the Black Pearl!" Luffy announced, earning incredulous looks, even Lami and Reiju stopped fighting to look at that monster, much larger than the medium-sized marine ship next to it.
