One Piece: Heaven-Defying Talent

Check out my new work:

Entertainment: Starting as a Succubus, Taking Hollywood by Storm

"Chiba, take a break and eat something." Hina's soft hand pressed down on the document, stopping Chiba from continuing his work.

Chiba looked up at her. Under the soft glow of the overhead light, Hina's skin appeared even fairer, her red lips strikingly vibrant. In the quiet of the lab, her scent subtly filled the air, and with his heightened senses, Chiba could even hear her heartbeat quicken.

The atmosphere grew more intense. Chiba took Hina's hand in his, his gaze becoming warmer and more focused.

Hina's heartbeat quickened further as she met his intense look. Her face flushed, and she glanced away, slightly embarrassed but unable to hide her own smile.

Chiba gave her hand a gentle squeeze and grinned. "You're right—I am hungry. I've been hungry for eighteen years. Now, with a beauty like you before me, how could I possibly let you go?"

"A-ah?" Hina whispered, her cheeks reddening.

Chiba pulled her close, wrapping her in his arms as he reached over to turn off the lights.

"Chiba, isn't this a bit too fast? Hina is… nervous."

"It's been a whole year. You think that's too fast?"

"But… we aren't married yet."

"First, we share a night. Tomorrow, we get married."

…

Early the next morning, Hina lay in Chiba's arms, while he looked out the window, watching the first light of day.

"Chiba, Hina heard something recently… something she's not sure how to tell you."

"Between us, there should be no secrets."

Hina turned to him, looking directly into his eyes. "People are saying that the World Government intends to transfer you to develop life-extending potions for the Celestial Dragons."

"With your talent, they expect you to create it, but the Celestial Dragons are selfish and cruel. They would never share that kind of potion. If you do succeed, they'd sooner kill you to keep it for themselves."

Chiba smiled, brushing off her concerns. "The Celestial Dragons may be powerful, but your husband is no pushover. Don't worry—I'll be fine."

"Hina trusts you completely. Your talent is unmatched. With enough time, you'll become a powerhouse equal to an Admiral, maybe even surpassing one. But Hina fears the World Government and the Celestial Dragons won't give you that time."

Chiba gently stroked her hair. "Put your heart at ease. We'll get our marriage certificate tomorrow, and you can focus on your training and… on taking care of our child."

"Our child?"

"That's right. Your husband's aim is true. After so many attempts yesterday, at least one should succeed, no?"

"Chiba, Hina just realized you're such a scoundrel."

"Too late to realize that now!"

…

Three days later.

[You have deeply analyzed the experience of a hundred Marines in practicing the Iron Body technique. By referencing legendary skills from your past life and adapting them to your own physique, you've comprehended the Divine Golden Bell Shield.]

[Iron Body: This technique toughens the body to the hardness of iron, deflecting bullets and swords. However, it immobilizes the user while active.]

[Sacred Golden Bell Shield: By condensing spiritual and physical energy into a bell-shaped shield, it grants extraordinary defense and rebound power. This shield's strength and resilience increase with higher levels of energy, far surpassing the Iron Body.]

Within minutes, Chiba had mastered the Golden Bell Shield technique, activating it effortlessly.

He focused his energy, and the 840 million "giant elephants" within him—now in their growth phase—released their energy to form a translucent, white bell-shaped barrier around him, sealing him safely at its center.

When fully mastered, the Divine Golden Bell Shield would solidify into a substantial golden barrier. For now, the shield was thin and slightly transparent, with room to improve its durability.

"I wonder how well this golden shield can withstand an attack," he mused.

Just then, the door flew open, and Peacock stormed in, her steps purposeful, her eyes blazing. Seeing Chiba, she glared, her voice filled with frustration. "Chiba, you went and got licensed with Hina? We need to talk—now."

Peacock's gaze locked on him, her fierce aura radiating as she raised her right leg high, aiming to bring it down on him.

Her long, slender leg, wrapped in dark Armament Haki, hovered in the air. Even her high heel was fully coated in Haki, reinforcing the power of her strike.

"Chiba, you infuriating man! Take this!"

Her foot slammed down, hitting the golden shield with full force.

Boom!

A sound like a great bell rang out, reverberating through the lab. The translucent shield trembled slightly but held firm. The impact sent Peacock spinning back, her leg thrown off balance by the rebound force. She spiraled through the air, crashing through several windows before landing outside the lab.

"Chiba, you heartless jerk!" she shouted from outside. "I like you, and you dare to hit back that hard? You better believe I'm coming for you!"
