A pirate on the high seas kidnaps a Celestial Dragon!

When the news of his sudden kidnapping by ruthless bandits came, it was inevitable that he would lose control of his emotions.

"Red-Haired Shanks, calm down. Luffy will be fine. He's Garp's grandson. The Navy won't stand idly by."

Beckman also spoke up to comfort Shanks, which calmed Shanks down a bit.

After letting out a long sigh of relief, Shanks continued reading the news in the newspaper.

"Roggetown..."

He muttered something to himself.

No one knows what he's thinking right now.

……

……

Also.

Whitebeard Pirates.

……

BIGMOM Pirates.

……

Beast Pirates.

……

The Seven Warlords of the Sea.

……

After seeing the news in the newspaper, everyone learned about this earth-shattering event.

Simultaneously.

The name 'Qi Bai' caught their eye and made them remember it.

In other words...

Qi Bai became famous instantly.

worldwide.

Most people know his name and his amazing feat.

……

Meanwhile, on the East China Sea side...

Lucky, who had been training in the House of Time and Spirit, finally emerged from it.

Two days.

They had only been outside for two days.

but.

Rob Lucci, who was in the House of Time and Spirit, had already been there for two full years.

Boom!

His feet were on the deck.

Two years is enough time for a person to change a lot, let alone when Lucci went into the House of Time and Spirit for training. After he came out, he underwent a complete transformation.

His fierce aura seemed to be unleashed uncontrollably.

Just like a wild beast in the jungle, ready to attack at any moment.

"Lucci, welcome back."

Qi Bai said with a smile.

This statement came out.

Lu Qi immediately knelt down in front of Qi Bai.

"Lucci has lived up to the boss's expectations."

Lucci also spoke respectfully.

Two years.

Spending two years in such a godforsaken place was truly torture, but fortunately, Lucci had undergone CP9 training, and CP9 training alone was something that ordinary people could not endure.

and so……

He is better able to adapt to such situations than most people.

of course.

The 1000 Senzu Beans played a significant role in this.

But in Qi Bai's eyes...

Lucci's change in strength is quite obvious.

originally.

Lucci only possesses the strength of the Breaking Army level.

However, after spending two years in the House of Time and Spirit, Lucci's strength had already changed.

Cataclysmic disaster!

That's right.

Lucci's strength directly reached the level of a calamity.

When Qi Bai saw this, his eyes narrowed in surprise; the improvement in strength was truly astonishing.

originally.

He just felt that if Lucci's strength reached the level of destroying a country, that would naturally be good for his bandit team, but having a catastrophe-level member would be even better.

"The effects of cultivating in the House of Time and Spirit are really this good?"

Qi Bai couldn't help but mutter to himself.

This is natural.

Within the House of Time and Spirit, gravity is maintained at ten times the normal level at all times, which is unbearable for ordinary people.

Lucci held on and trained through it for a full two years.

Training under such gravity for two years, all the time, naturally yielded amazing results.

Under normal circumstances.

During his time on Enies Lobby, Lucci became a CP0 agent after two years of training.

Then.

Having trained in the House of Time and Spirit for two full years, Lucci's transformation was naturally earth-shattering, and it was quite normal for his strength to far exceed that of Rob Lucci on his normal trajectory.

"Good training results. Go and rest for a while. We have a tough battle to fight soon."

Qi Bai also spoke to Lu Qi.

The tough battle he was talking about.

That's naturally related to extorting the navy.

Thirteen Devil Fruits.

He didn't specifically request that the Devil Fruit be of a high grade, so if nothing unexpected happened, the Navy would definitely just give him thirteen ordinary Zoan-type Devil Fruits to fool him.

but.

He doesn't care either.

The value of thirteen Zoan-type Devil Fruits is also quite high.

This is enough to make the spare skirt item level of the extortion reach a very high level. Land Feed 4 slip 0.

of course.

He didn't think the Navy would just let him go after ransoming Luffy and Smoker.

Thirteen Devil Fruits are nothing to the World Government.

But their reputation is very important.

Extorted.

And now the whole world knows about it.

If they swallow their anger and do nothing to retaliate, it won't just be the Navy that loses face; the World Government will also be slapped in the face.

After all, the Navy is a subordinate agency of the World Government, and the two are closely related.

and so……

Qi Bai naturally had to prepare for this naval counterattack.

Madara Uchiha had already fought Garp.

The other side was somewhat aware of the bottom line of this ruthless bandit group, so the navy would definitely launch an attack on them after ransoming them, and the attack would be quite large.

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, a fierce glint flashed in Lucci's eyes.

He trained relentlessly and relentlessly in the House of Time and Spirit, all for the sake of contributing to his boss. Now that he has the strength, anyone who dares to offend his boss will be sent to their death by Lucci.

……

After Lucci stepped down...

Qi Bai then turned his attention to his data panel.

just now.

He still has over a million reputation points left to use.

A tough battle is about to begin.

and so……

These 100 million+ reputation points should be used when appropriate; that's how they become valuable.

And he has over 100 million reputation points in his possession.

He naturally wanted to directly upgrade his physique, which was still at the level of destroying a nation, to the level of a natural disaster...

"System, consume reputation points to upgrade [Physique] to the Cataclysmic level and [Instant Step] to the Breaking Army level."

Qi Bai said to the system in his mind.

The system's voice also rang in his mind.

"Ding! Consuming 100.0000 reputation points, the attribute [Physique] has been successfully upgraded to: Cataclysmic Level!"

"Ding! Consuming 100 reputation points, the ability [Instant Step] has been successfully upgraded to: Dangerous Level!"

"Ding! Consuming 1000 reputation points, the ability [Instant Step] has been successfully upgraded to: Breaking Army level!"

"..."

100.1100 reputation points were invested.

Qi Bai's physique and Instant Step were immediately improved.

He could clearly feel the improvement in his physique. In addition, he had a clearer understanding of the ability of Instant Step. If he used Instant Step with brute force before, he now used it with skill.

He was promoted.

It was worth investing over a million reputation points.

but.

He currently has only 8691 reputation points left.

This left him short of money again.
