Hypno Dial

Dials were truly amazing. Fascinating how such small, innocent-looking devices could do so many different things. They were a marvel of scientific engineering. One dial could record people’s voices. Another could generate a small flame, much like a lighter such as the one Sanji used to lit his cigarettes. Then there were dials which were… well, when a dial could produce a fart, you knew it was meant to be a joke.

Usopp had always cherished the dials he’d received after their adventure on Sky Island, but truth be told, not all of them worked. Some were broken, but he’d grabbed them since he’d assumed he could make them work again. True, he knew next to nothing about dials, but he was good at adapting and fixing things. He’d made the Clima Tact, after all. If that wasn’t an amazing invention, then he didn’t know what was.

And Franky was all too eager to help. The cyborg’s aid was very appreciated, and they’d made progress fixing a few more dials over the years.

Today he was working on another broken dial. Sitting inside the study at a table, the long-nosed young man tinkered with the marvelous device, using his goggles to closely inspect the inner mechanisms. He’d been working on this one for hours already. His neck was aching, yet he pushed on; close to a breakthrough. At this point he was losing track of time.

The dial was shaped just like any other shell, with a small tube sticking out at one point. It was colored a deep purple and had white markings. From an outside look, it was impossible to discern its true purpose.

He was curious what the dial would do. Hopefully not some gag feature, like the farts. If this one made a monkey noise, then he would – actually he’d keep it. That sounded really useful for pranks. The Strawhat Pirates Jester Club could always use more toys. Chopper and Luffy would most certainly appreciate messing with Zoro, whenever the green-haired swordsman napped. Those were the perfect moments to pull a prank on him.

“Good afternoon, Usopp-kun.” A soft, melodic voice announced from behind.

Usopp looked up, smiling at his guest. “Oh. Hey, Robin. How are you doing?”

The tall, voluptuous woman sauntered into the study, carrying a book in one hand and holding a drink in the other. You’d think he would have gotten used to how attractive she was, having spent so much time around her and Nami, who were both considered to be extremely beautiful. Plus, the crew had come across several beauties during their travels.

But Robin was in a whole different class of her own. Few women could hope to match her in sex appeal, and those who did had some serious competition.

“I’m feeling very content, thank you for asking.” She gifted him her trademark smile; small, yet content, and her eyes closed as she appreciated his comment. Robin raised her book in the air. “I was looking for a quiet spot to read, actually. I hope I’m not intruding?”

“No, no! Not at all. I wouldn’t mind the company. Though maybe I should leave, if you want to read that in peace. Since I’m tinkering and all.”

He wasn’t too loud when at work, but some of his tools might make a bit of ruckus. In that case, he’d gladly find a different spot to work.

“That’s not a problem. By the way, the others have gone ashore to buy ingredients for dinner tonight.” Robin said.

“Ah, alright. I take it Luffy has been eating everything – again.”

She giggled in response. “Very perceptive. Our dear captain can be quite stealthy when it comes to food.”

Usopp watched from the corner of his eye as she walked over to a nearby couch. Dressed in her usual outfit, she was a real stunner; navy blue leather jacket that was unzipped to show off cleavage, long salmon sarong skirt, an exposed stomach, and pink high heeled pumps. The latter clicked on the wooden floor whenever she walked.

The clothes alone were revealing enough, but Robin seemed to have no issue putting her beauty on display. It was hard to miss how she walked with confidence, wide hips swaying gently to an inaudible rhythm. The archaeologist's curvy ass danced along with the beat. Those long, smooth legs that stretched on for miles were often revealed by her sash. Always hinting at what was underneath, like a forbidden treasure.

Her flat, toned tummy was left partially bare as the jacket only reached halfway down her narrow waist. Yet her hourglass figure was completed by the prodigious assets she possessed. Robin wasn’t just busty, she easily had one of the biggest pair of tits Usopp had ever laid his eyes on. The zipper of her jacket struggled to contain the massive mammaries, and they bounced with each step she took.

Eventually, she sat down with an almost regal elegance. Crossing one leg over the other, and reclining confidently in her seat. Just watching her do something as mundane as that was stimulating enough.

Usopp caught himself staring, but luckily Robin was too busy with her book. Well, he doubted she’d missed him looking, being the former assassin that she was. If she did, she didn’t comment on it.

He returned his attention the dial instead. Maybe fixing this damned thing would grant some peace of mind. Either that, or a cold shower. It wasn’t his fault for being a young male; none of them ever got laid, since the life of a pirate was as turbulent as it was. Not that the crew was sexually very active. Some didn’t care for sex, like Luffy or Zoro. And most of the others were similarly occupied by their goals, or had no interest.

The sniper fiddled with the dial’s inner wiring, using his tools with a surgical precision. This part he could not mess up. When he’d first taken a look at the dial’s mechanism, it had become clear that whatever thing or event caused the damage, it had loosened up some of the wiring. Usopp had already worked on the other damage, and now he was almost done repairing it. Just a little bit more…

After thirty more minutes of silent cursing, tweaking wires and breaking his head over how complicated dials really were, Usopp managed to complete the reparations. He sighed as he took off his goggles, wiping away the sweat that had gathered on his forehead. He quickly closed the dial now that it was fixed.

“At last! It’s done!” The pirate cheered, standing up to perform a little victory dance. Twisting his hips side to side, he turned around and then froze. Robin was giggling quietly, eyes filled with mirth. “T-that… Please don’t tell the others.”

“Of course. My lips are sealed.” She said.

Somehow he doubted that. Usopp felt incredibly embarrassed, and wondered whether or not to just go take a shower now, rather than test the dial.
