As for why Ronan was so sure that Monet wasn't a spy sent by Dofranmingo?
First of all, he believed that Doflemingo would not be so stupid as to send a spy to his side right after he left. Moreover, Monet and her sister, Granite, were adopted by Dorenmingo after Corazon's death. Now, Dorenmingo had never seen them at all.
The most important thing was that Ronan did not smell the chaotic scent that belonged to the Don Quijote family from her.
All the members of the Don Quijote family had a unique temperament under the leadership of Dominguez, which Monet did not have. This was why Ronan was so sure.
Ronan reached out and gently pinched Monet's fair and smooth face. He leaned his head close to Monet, and there was almost no space between the two of them.
"Can you tell me where you got the Demon Fruit? Moreover, it was such a rare Natural Element.”
According to the subsequent developments in the manga, it should have been after Monet joined the Don Quijote family that Dofranmingo gave her the Devil's Fruit. But now, Monet had the Devil's Fruit more than three years earlier than before, which made Ronan very curious.
Monet had never seen such a scene before. His face had already turned red when Ronan was so close to him. In his panic, he naturally could not keep any secrets." I stole it."”
Under Monet's nervous expression, Ronan finally understood the gist of the matter from her.
Monet and her sister, Tanasha, were born in a country that was at war for years. When they were very young, they lost a war in this country, and they became the so-called war orphans.
She and her sister had been wandering around the country. Just half a month ago, they were unlucky enough to encounter a group of slave traders who engaged in human trafficking. She was immediately targeted because of her good looks.
Most of the things that happened after that could be inferred. She was unable to resist and was captured and forced to separate from her sister. However, she was lucky. On the slave ship, she happened to encounter the slave owner fighting with a group of pirates, so she stole the demon fruit that was supposed to be given to the Don Quijote family and slipped away when no one was paying attention.
" You're really everywhere there is crime, Dover." When Ronan heard that the Snowy Fruit was going to be given to Dorflemingo, he sighed with a pained expression.
He wasn't surprised. After all, the future Monet's devil fruit was given to her by Doflemingo. It was logical.
Moreover, he knew that Dofranmingo was collecting demon fruits everywhere. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought a demon fruit to trade with Dover.
However, Ronan thought about how he had just formed an alliance with Dover and had taken in a person who had stolen the Devil's Fruit. God knew if Dofranmingo would immediately fall out with him after hearing the news.
Ronan looked at Monet, who was squatting on the ground, and felt a little conflicted. If he had to hand over the only female nature-type ability user in the world of pirates to this guy, he would also be a little reluctant.
If he could nurture Monet well, not only would he be an important combat force, but a beautiful woman would also be very pleasing to the eye.
After weighing the pros and cons, Ronan finally decided to take in Monet. There were only a few Nature Elements, and each of them was precious. Moreover, Monet's ability was the Snow Fruit, which was quite aggressive. For this, he could accept the pressure from Dominguez.
Monet, who was squatting on the ground, looked nervously at Ronan. From Ronan's muttering, she could tell that the man in front of her seemed to have a cooperative relationship with the Don Quijote family. She was now afraid that Ronan would hand her over, so she had long put away her fierce expression from when she had just woken up.
At this moment, Monet was already regretting it. Why did he have to fight with him? Now, he was caught and exposed his ability. Now, his life was in the hands of others.
"You stole something from the Don Quijote family. Logically speaking, I'm in an alliance with Doframingo, so I should give you to them.”
Ronan paused for a moment, which made Monet nervous. She had learned a lot about the Don Quijote family after wandering here for the past few days, and she was naturally very afraid of their cruelty.
"But... I'm still lacking a secretary. I wonder if you're willing to stay and be my secretary?”
As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand to Monet, who was squatting on the ground, and smiled at the dazed Monet.
"He actually didn't hand me over…Just let me off like that…" She did not regard being a secretary as a burden at all. After all, ever since her father and mother died and she became an orphan, no one had ever shown her kindness.
All these years of wandering with her sister had made her accustomed to indifference and disregard. They had lived like zombies for so many years and had never felt respect from others.
Now that Ronan was willing to protect her from Don Quijote's pressure and only asked her to be his secretary, Monet looked at his smiling face and felt inexplicably complicated.
His heart stirred, and he fell silent for a while.
Finally, a serious look appeared on Monet's face." I understand. I will become a qualified secretary."”
" Then, welcome to the Lannister Pirates." Ronan held Monet's hand. It felt very soft." You can call me Young Master or Captain in the future."”
"Yes, Young Master." A happy smile appeared on Monet's face.
At this point, the Lannister Pirates had another officer, the secretary of the Lannister Pirates, who would be known as the 'snow maiden' in the future-Monet.
----------
I asked the editor in the morning. There was no hope of recommending it. My heart was stifled. It was comforting.
There was a class reunion tomorrow, so he was saving the draft. The update might be a little late, but there would be three chapters left.
