Chapter 3: Hope's enticing charisma! The crew gains another member!
Hope smiled as he looked upon his sleeping crew, all of them were passed out with all the loot that they had acquired from these gangsters, which he estimated to be around fifty thousand berri.
He used this alone time to focus on the environment around him, he needed to constantly train his abilities. The more proficient he became with them, the more comfortable he became, which made him stronger. Focus was the key for these kinds of abilities.
The captain smirked as he extended his sensing range beyond what he thought he was capable of, allowing him to peer into the emotions of the gangsters that were keeping watch on the estate the crew had taken over.
Anxiety reigned paramount from the two who were staked out. He sensed them when he displayed his superiority to the mob boss. Anyone in their position would be. Even in the North Blue, a sea considered by many to be the strongest out of the four blues, a human without any sort of devil fruit that had the ability to somewhat predict the future, while Hope wished he had this ability, he wasn't that proficient with observational haki to say he could see the future. Intent sensing coupled with a large sensory range allows most basic users to sense and predict movements of many things like bullets.
He could also sense the anxiety of several members of his crew, he knew that they where most likely normal members of the public before they were possibly kidnapped because of their looks or physical attributes. After this raid he would give them an option to leave, forcing someone to inflict violence wasn't his style.
He smiled and stood up, he needed to see the extent of this gang's influence.
The trip thought the streets of Dancing Port was becoming more annoying to Hope, the further he went into the territory that he knew the Mafia owned the more stares he received, hushed whispers from store owners and the occasional merchant confirmed to the captain that he was infamous throughout the town already, as the man who lead a crew to take out Rogun the butcher as well as the Triad.
He took a right turn and ended up in a place where he hadn't intended to go. Even if it was day the streets were lit up with red lights, women and men of all different races dressed in sensuous clothing eyed him from their positions behind glass windows. Small time gangs, what Hope assumed to be, littered the area with their cigarettes and lustful intent. It wasn't Hope's first time in a district like this, nor would it be the last.
Out of the corner of his eye he spotted a familiar face in one of the glass windows and frowned. Dressed in black lace and armed with a whip stood Revy who looked at anyone menacingly more than anything else.
'What is she doing here?' Hope thought to himself as he walked towards the building which held Revy. Taking note of the glare she gave one of the gang members, who was smiling at her with a perverse smile.
Hope was greeted by a receptionist, an older Lady who smiled too sweetly. "Welcome Honey"
Her eyes looked over Hope and smirked, but then frowned as they landed on the spear that he held at his side. "Ah… no weapons allowed in this shop"
Hope nodded and opened the door, stabbing his spear into the paved ground and walked back in. He gave the Lady a cocky smirk "Better?"
She nodded. "Better, before you choose your partner we have to go over the rules"
The lady pointed at a poster which clearly stated what clients could and could not do to their escorts, not that Hope would came in here with the intention of doing such things in the first place.
"I can read, I won't do anything against the rules I assure you" Hope said, still wearing a smile. The lady gave Hope a raised eyebrow as a response.
"Thats what all boys your age say, thinking that they're hot shit… let me tell you boy, the Mafia protects this establishment, do you know what they do to those who defy them?" the lady threatened to which Hope waved his hand dismissively.
"I may be a pirate captain but I'm no woman basher. '' Hope stated with a scoff as the Lady shook her head with intent to mock Hope.
"What are your preferences?" The lady asked reluctantly as she clapped her hands twice, Girls dressed in different forms of lingerie walked into the room from a door behind the desk, Hope wasn't interested in any of them.
"The one in the window, no whips" Hope assertively explained, noticing the scowl on one of the girl's faces. The other two looked relieved. All which was confirmed with his ability to sense emotion.
"She'll be extra… 200% extra" The lady said as Hope pulled out a pouch of coins and nodded.
"What's the damage?" He asked sighing as the Lady clicked once, from her seat in the window came Revy, who stopped and stared at Hope in shock.
"Two thousand berri for an hour"
Hope dumped the entire pouch into the Lady's hands. "There's a little more than four thousand in there… I want two hours"
The lady weighed the pouch with her hand and nodded, she reached into her pocket and grabbed a key. "Room 205"
Hope nodded and grabbed the Key, he turned and looked at Revy before using his head to gesture for her to lead him.
Revy regained her composure and nodded, leading Hope up two flights of stairs and into a room which was decorated and most likely bugged.
"I didn't pick you the type to use whores" Revy admitted as she sat down on the bed. "Looks like I thought wrong"
Hope smiled, there was no venomous tone in her voice, she was genuinely surprised. "Are you doing this of your own free will? Also I asked for no whips"
Revy snorted as she threw the whip to the corner of the room. "What are you some kind of pussy?"
Hope noticed that she didn't answer the question. "What made you end up working for the Mafia in a whorehouse? I mean sure you're incredibly beautiful and all but your hands are better of working guns than dicks and vagianas"
Revy eyed Hope as he strode over to the bed, sat down and kicked his boots off. "What do you know about handling dicks and vagainas? You're probably a virgin"
Hope posted himself at the front of the bed, shirt and shorts still on as Revy crawled over the bed towards him. He sent her a cheeky smile and stuck his tongue out "I don't know much about working other people's dicks"
Revy straddled Hope, she had a million thoughts going though her mind right now, but that could wait, she pushed her hands onto the clothed chest of Hope and smiled. "I bet you know how to work your own dick masterfully, you lonley fucking wanker"
Her hands trailed down, carefully feeling each bump of hardened muscle that was hidden behind the white shirt. Just as she was going to reach the start of his groin, Hope captured Revy's chin in between his fingers and tilted her head to look at him. "I want information on this gang that 'employs' you"
Revy looked him in the eyes and considered telling him everything. She smirked and moved her hands to the topmost button of Hope's shirt, unbuttoning it. "What would I know? I'm just a common whore"
Another button was udone, Revy grinded her lower half on Hope's groin, they could both feel him getting hard. "Whores hear many things, they're very good at getting information"
Revy leaned in closer as one more button fell. "So you're looking for me to give you details about their military force? Connections? How many slaves they have?"
Hope smirked as he put his hands behind his back. "Any information at all would help me alot"
"Why should I help a deluded person like you?" She questioned, stopping her act of undressing Hope to hear him out. She knew that he wanted her on his crew, and would seemingly kill all of the Mafia here in town to do so.
"If you help me you can be free of any chains that limit you, that waste your talents in areas like this" Hope explained calmly, almost spitting out that last part. "You could grow strong enough to not have anyone push you around, to never be cornered ever again"
Revy grimaced, 'What does this bastard know about being cornered?'
She resumed unbuttoning his shirt staring at Hope.
"Being a pirate under my command will be entertaining Revy" Hope explained as Revy undid the last button, exposing his upper body to her. A singular scar was placed in the right side of his abdomen, from what Revy could tell it was a stab wound. "Think of it as one big adventure"
Revy traced the scar with her hand, focusing on it. She needed to distract Hope, his talk was enticing her, seducing her to come on his adventure. "Where'd you get this from?"
Hope chuckled lightly. "From my brother… it was an accident on his part"
Revy looked up to Hope's face, she could see nostalgia written all over his face. "What happened?"
She started to remove the shirt from him, but his refusal to remove his hands was annoying her. "He started to talk shit about our dad, who died before he was born, he didn't want to exist and wished that he didn't exist. So we fought about it and he stabbed me on impulse."
"Sounds like you had a nice upbringing" Revy mocked as she leaned in further, pressing her chest against his in an attempt to remove Hope's shirt.
"I did, I was truly blessed to have such freedom growing up" Hope said as he allowed Revy to take his shirt off. "Which is why I want to give that same freedom to people who deserve it"
Revy stopped her act of seducing Hope and glared at him. "I don't want your pity"
Hope smirked. "Too bad… you've got it"
Revy slapped him across the face. "What are you? Some self righteous goody two shoes? Get fucked"
Hope grinned even more. "You feel like you don't deserve it don't you? After all that you have done in this dark end of the planet, you feel like you should stay buried here instead of going to the light"
Revy wrapped her hands around the neck of Hope, struggling to get her hands around the whole thing. "Speak any more you bastard and I'll choke you"
"Jokes on you! I'm into that shit" Hope joked with a teasing grin as he felt Revy start to squeeze. "You're more than skilled enough to work your way up in the bounty hunting world to end up at the top. Yet you stay here, letting horny teens and gangsters bend you over and fuck you"
Revy squeezed harder but it didn't matter, Hope's natural muscle density and strength allowed him to resist any force exerted by Revy. "You can't kill me as you are now."
Revy knew this, but it didn't stop her from trying.
"But if you follow me and the journey isn't worth it in the end… you will be able to" Hope said with a devilish smile.
Revy stopped choking him and removed her hands. "You're gambling your life on it?"
Hope smirked, seductively. "More than that… my crew's lives as well"
Revy stopped doing everything. The hardness she felt at her core was ignored for the latent desire for freedom and adventure that Hope had stoked in her once again. She had seen seductive charisma before, while people possessed it none had as much nor wielded it with such proficiency as this man laying underneath her.
He leant towards her, his face moving past hers to her ear. Whispering into her ear in a way that sent shivers down her spine, Hope smiled. "I figured that this room is bugged, if you wanna adventure with me kiss me, if you don't… push me back down onto the bed and do your best to choke me"
Revy slithered her arms underneath his arms and grabbed his shoulders and ground herself into him. He bit her ear lightly before moving his head backwards to face her. She kissed him, slowly and purposefully. He kissed back and put his arms behind his head. They parted.
"You really know how to turn a girl on don't you?" Revy replied with a smirk as her hands trailed down his chest to his groin, nails scraping on the muscle.
Hope huffed as he rested his back against the headrest. "I can be a bit charismatic when I want to be"
Revy used her free hand to remove the lacy bra that she was wearing, twiliring it around her finger with a grin before chucking it to the side of the room. "A bit is an understatement lover-boy"
"Look at you sucking up to me now… such a good girl" Hope said with pride as his left hand moved from the back of his head to her breasts. Teasing each nipple as her hands went into his pants.
She gripped his cock with a seductive smirk causing him to groan. "I'll show you sucking"
Revy watched as Hope walked out of the room they had spent the last two hours having sex in. She was exhausted, which was unusual for her, usually all the people she 'serviced' were the ones out of breath. Yet here she was contemplating how Hope didn't even seem to break a sweat while making putting her through the best sex she had ever had in her life.
She sighed, she was jealous of that bastard, He had it all, looks, charisma, power and soon he would have money. Revy was sure that it would only grow more as Hope continued his pirate journey.
But she wasn't sure Hope knew what he was getting himself into. Sure he was strong, but was he as strong as her 'owner'. She shivered and cringed out of disgust. She hated that word as much as she hated that man.
How she dreamed every night of popping a bullet through the skull of that scum.
A bead of sweat dripped down her arm re-focusing her mind on what had just occurred. What she had agreed to. The fire that had been relit by that dreaming golden boy. He whispered to her with confidence of their future exploits, assured her that she would get stronger.
Was this any different to what she had just escaped from? The trading of one scummy master for one who resembled the devil more than the previous one.
She would find out or die trying, that was the conclusion Revy came to. She got off the bed and walked over to the window, wincing at the slight soreness in her legs. From here she could see the auras of everyone in the street. As usual Hope's was a golden colour and stood out like a beacon.
She watched as he pulled out his spear from the ground with ease. Hoodlums, a part of a small gang, approached him. She grit her teeth, she hated these people. The one time that Revy had found herself servicing them they didn't obey the rules, she had to stop mid session to kick their asses and send them out. They didn't like that and tried to take over the place, the Mafia killed their family members and had been stalking Revy ever since.
"So you fucked that bitch huh?" one hoodlum asked with a cocky grin. "That pussy is good isn't it!"
She fought back the urge to retrieve her cutlasses and pop them right there,
Hope blinked. "What bitch? I didn't fuck a bitch! That would be beastiality!"
Revy chuckled, internally confused as to how Hope could change his personality so quick after playing the part of the devil.
The gang members chuckled, Hope's idiotic charisma was infectios. "The window girl idiot! Revy!"
She watched as Hope looked at them as they moved in, a more friendly version of circling him.
"Oh! Revy!" Hope said with a smile and scratching the back of his head. "Yeah she was good fun to talk to!"
One hoodlum chuckled darkly. "Yeah I bet she was… you know about her right? What happened to her. What she's being used for"
Hope blinked once more, looking up to Revy. "Do tell"
"Well as you know, she's a whore" The hoodlum said, shoving his hands in his pockets. "She's owned personally by the Shibukai, Doflamingo… his personal fuck thing when he's in town"
Revy raged but focused more on Hope's aura, it was starting to leak sparks of red.
"She's also being used to bribe the King of the country. The Mafia here sends her to the royal palace to drain all the crusty cum from the nobles to allow the Mafia to run the country" Another hoodlum explained.
"Though I heard that you were taking down the Mafia, once you beat them let us take care of Revy"
Revy scoffed she didn't know that Hope wouldn't do that.
"Oh? So you boys can try and fuck her six ways to sunday?" Hope asked in a mocking tone. Revy smirked, those limp-dick bastards wouldn't be able to do that even if they all joined in.
"And more… you see she got our family killed because we was being… a little lenient with the rules in the house"
"How about this?" Hope proposed as more of his aura started to spark red. "You three walk away quietly and never talk to me again"
The three hoodlums looked shocked causing Revy to form a shit eating grin on her face.
"Huh?". Their mood shifted instantly. "You wanna die?"
The red was overpowering the gold. "I tried to be nice to you scumbags. You want to rape Revy don't you? This is my response to that"
Revy blinked and each gang member found themselves face first in the dirt with blood pooling around them.
"Nobody threatens my crewmates" He said coldly, the red aura beginning to flood the entire street.
Revy looked around and started to see everybody sweating, some even running away. She herself was scared, she hadn't seen something this potent with evil intent since she last saw Doflamingo. But this time she wasn't trembling at the knees and frozen solid with fear, she didn't know what filled her heart this time, but she did know that it was warm.
A bit NSFW and eery... but that was the direction I wanted to go with this chapter.
