Chapter 89

"God... has finally been defeated?"

"Skypiea is free!"

At this moment,

the Shandians and Sky Islanders excitedly embraced each other, celebrating that Enel's tyranny had finally come to an end!

The Straw Hat Pirates glanced at this scene and exchanged smiles.

They came to Lord Sima and Ma Di's side, only to find Lord Sima seemingly spacing out.

—In truth, he was checking his rewards!

【Ding! Congratulations on signing in at the famous scene "Beam Struggle with Raigo!" and obtaining the sign-in reward "Enel's Mantra"!】

——————————

"Enel's Mantra": Using the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's ability to disperse electrons within the range covered by Observation Haki, capturing the brainwaves emitted when the brain thinks, and interpreting the information the brain is currently thinking to achieve a mind-reading effect!;

——————————

This ability is pretty good,

it just needs the Rumble-Rumble Fruit paired with it to bring out its maximum effect.

However......

Lord Sima has the Word Spirit ability, so when needed he can simulate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, and it works just fine.

"Are you too tired?" Robin asked with concern.

Lord Sima came back to his senses and smiled gently.

To be honest,

that "Kamehameha" wave just now really drained close to sixty percent of his stamina.

—I really don't know what kind of monsters those people in Dragon Ball are, firing off blasts that shatter planets?

Shaking his head to fling these strange thoughts from his mind, Lord Sima looked toward the unconscious Enel.

"You've all seen the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's ability, so let's vote first — should we extract it?" Lord Sima asked.

"Of course!" Nami said first.

"I agree too." Usopp nodded right after.

"It's strong, but I still want the Clear-Clear Fruit." Sanji said: "But if Nami-san wants it, of course I agree!"

"Tch, whatever." Zoro stated his position.

In the end,

the motion to use the Devil Fruit extraction agent passed unanimously.

Lord Sima directly used telekinesis to roughly pry open Enel's mouth, popped open the bottle stopper of the Devil Fruit extraction agent, shoved it straight into his mouth, then took out an apple from the system space as the carrier for the Rumble-Rumble Fruit and placed it beside Enel.

Just a few seconds passed,

and under everyone's gaze, blue lightning patterns slowly traced themselves across the apple's surface, protruding and taking shape on the skin, transforming into a complete Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

Throughout the whole process, Enel showed no reaction at all.

Instead......

【Ding! Congratulations on signing in at the famous scene "The Birth of a Devil Fruit!" and obtaining the sign-in reward "Some NPC's Skill Copy Stone"!】

——————————

"Some NPC's Low-Level Skill Copy Stone": A miraculous stone used by a certain NPC to copy their own low-level skills and distribute them as rewards to players. Now you can also issue quests!;

——————————

Hmm?

Didn't expect this to actually be a famous scene too.

Lord Sima recalled......

It seemed that in the future Punk Hazard would have a scene of "a Devil Fruit being born" — does this count as cashing in the famous scene early?

Lord Sima beckoned the Rumble-Rumble Fruit over, flipped his hand, and stored it in the system space.

Meeting the eyes of Nami and the others staring at him eagerly, he gave a wink to the Shandians who had come over.

Now is not the time for "dividing the loot."

"By the way...... where's Kulleran?" Zoro asked in confusion.

From the very first moment of Dengdao, his figure had never been seen.

"I'm here."

Kulleran, who had barely any presence all this time, had somehow popped out from who-knows-where, carefully sealing a recording Den Den Mushi inside a gold box, which he treasured in his arms.

This is the evidence proving his ancestor wasn't the Great Liar!

"Tch! Lucky you didn't get caught up in it." Lord Sima said with amusement.

Perhaps this is what they call protagonist's halo?

In the "Golden City" storyline, Kulleran, as the descendant of Noland, is unquestionably the male lead.

"Compared to all that, I'm more concerned — won't the Den Den Mushi suffocate sealed inside that box?" Nami stared fixedly at the gold box: "How about I trade you my jewelry box for it?"

The excited Kulleran completely failed to pick up on Nami's hidden meaning.

He earnestly explained: "When a Den Den Mushi has no food, it will enter hibernation — even three years without eating, drinking, or air is completely fine!"

Nami could only click her tongue in disappointment, but didn't press the matter.

She knew this was Kulleran's precious evidence to prove his ancestor, so she'd let him off the hook.

A large crowd also arrived at this time, completely surrounding the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Thank you for helping the Shandians reclaim their homeland!" Wyper offered his sincere thanks.

"The people of Skypiea will also thank you for your salvation — we will erect a hero's statue for you!" Gan

Ma Di, Sima Di, Lord Sima, Dengdao, Deshan, Kamehameha

Lord Sima said nothing.

Luffy, who had already returned to his normal form, scratched his head with an embarrassed grin.

"Hahaha— we just did what we should have done. That scumbag should have been taken down long ago."

Lord Sima also chimed in at the right moment.

"Let's go, we're going to ring the Golden Bell!"

Lord Sima looked at the giant vine on the sacrificial platform; its top was where the Golden Bell hung, and beneath the Golden Bell lay the historical original.

Wyper and Kalgara's eyes lit up at those words!

The two exchanged a glance, then immediately scrambled up the giant vine with hands and feet alike toward the top.

The others didn't compete with them, simply following behind to witness this historic moment.

Nami even pulled Zoro and the others aside, quietly ordering them to go scrape up the gold scattered throughout the underground ruins—especially the inscription made primarily of gold; even if they had to chip it off, they should bring back plenty.

"What? I wanted to go take a look too," Luffy complained.

Nami immediately glared at him!

"You don't know how expensive things are when you're not running the household? Get going, now!" Nami roared furiously.

Faced with Nami in this state, even Luffy could only tuck his head and obediently go.

Robin also smiled and offered to help, since her Flower-Flower Fruit made her quite the hand at treasure-hunting.

But she was pulled back by Lord Sima.

"I just used my Observation Haki and saw that there's a historical original beneath the Golden Bell. Don't you want to go take a look?" Lord Sima said with a smile.

Robin's eyes lit up!

Lord Sima smiled and used his telekinesis to lift her, flying toward the Golden Bell.

Nami merely glanced over and said nothing more.

Instead, she glared at Luffy and the others, furiously ordering them to get back to work.

Kureha, meanwhile, gazed at the sky with emotion, her eyes full of reminiscence.

She still remembered...

Lord Sima did not reach the Golden Bell first; like the others, he kept his pace half a step behind Kalgara and the other man.

As for being the first to ring the Golden Bell?

There was no need.

He had no hobby of insisting on being the protagonist and drawing every eye to himself. Wouldn't it be better to let this historic moment be rung together by the two people bound by a four-hundred-year bond?
