Thus.

Luo Xing, Nami, and the three of them including Kaido's Kaido, began their journey to the Sky Island.

Kaido transformed into a massive pterosaur, with Luo Xing and Nami riding on his back.

The pterosaur flapped its wings, soaring into the high sky at lightning speed.

Nami's beautiful eyes sparkled with crystal light as she gazed at the surrounding scenery, then stood up to look out at the distant sea view.

"How beautiful, the scenery outside."

While the beauty looked at the beautiful scenery, Luo Xing looked at the beauty.

Luo Xing suddenly thought that he had never tried it in the air; he should have a chance to try it with Nami.

Nami had no idea of Luo Xing's absurd thoughts; she extended her jade hand and, like a curious child, gently stroked the clouds in the high sky.

"Eh?"

She let out a soft "eh."

"Husband, the clouds have become sticky."

Luo Xing smiled and said, "Soon they will turn into solids."

"It's truly amazing, how wonderful the world outside is!"

At this moment.

Kaido had already flown to an altitude of seven thousand meters, piercing through a thick layer of cloud sea, and the scenery before their eyes suddenly opened up.

Mists swirled, with wild geese and cranes flying past, resembling a fairyland on earth.

Nami was so mesmerized that she tightly hugged Luo Xing's arm.

"Is this the Sky Island? I want to live here forever."

Luo Xing tapped his silly wife's forehead and said:

"This is just the White Sea, which is the clouds we see from the ground. The Sky Island is still three thousand meters above this."

Because of the existence of the White Sea, many people on the great seas do not know about the Sky Island and believe it is merely a legend.

Kaido suddenly increased his speed.

The wind howled in their ears, as if they were surfing.

After breaking through a layer of clouds that seemed solid, they finally arrived at the true Sky Island.

However, there are many Sky Islands; the Sky Island where Enel resides is located in the first half of the Grand Line.

So Luo Xing and the others still had to continue forward for a while.

At the same moment on the Red Line, at the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku emerged from the Power Room, his face black as the bottom of a pot.

Just now, the Five Elders had scolded him thoroughly, berating him for losing soldiers and generals in Dressrosa and bringing shame to the World Government.

Deep in his heart, Sengoku could hardly help cursing.

Back then, when they ordered me to send people to retake Dressrosa, wasn't that a direct command from you Five Elders?

Only a few days have passed, and you've already forgotten everything!

Angry, Sengoku retorted without any courtesy.

This made the Five Elders even more furious, yet they were helpless.

Fleet Admiral Kong is already old; nowadays, the Navy can only rely on Sengoku to hold it together.

If Sengoku were removed, the Navy's situation would only get worse.

In this situation where the Beasts Pirates are becoming increasingly aggressive and the Whitebeard Pirates are also showing signs of movement, Sengoku's position as Fleet Admiral absolutely cannot be moved.

The Five Elders could only swallow their anger.

From this point of view, Sengoku has far more face than the later Fleet Admiral Akainu.

Sengoku did not return to Marineford immediately; instead, he went to Vegapunk's laboratory.

As soon as they met, Sengoku asked directly:

"Regarding those higher-level Devil Fruit cells, have you come up with any countermeasures?"

The main reason the Navy suffered such a crushing defeat in the campaign to attack Dressrosa was the three calamities whose power had skyrocketed!

Working together, the three calamities were able to push Sakazuki back step by step, even inflicting serious injuries upon him.

When Sengoku first learned of this, he was stunned for a long time.

From Akainu's mouth, he learned that the three calamities had gained such formidable strength by consuming higher-level Devil Fruit cells.

Regarding this matter, Sengoku could only entrust it to Vegapunk, asking him to definitely research the higher-level Devil Fruit cells.

Vegapunk looked embarrassed when asked, not knowing how to answer properly.

He couldn't even replicate the lower-level Tiger-level Devil Fruit cells, let alone the higher-level Dragon-level Devil Fruit cells!

Isn't this putting him in a difficult position?

Seeing Vegapunk's expression, Sengoku knew the answer immediately and sighed.

He had just asked that question with a sliver of hope.

"What about that Senzu Bean that can make severed limbs regenerate? Do you have any leads?"

"Oh right, Akainu also said that the Plague Calamity and the Drought Calamity among the three calamities can combine because of something called Combination Earrings; can you develop them?"

Sengoku asked two more questions in a row.

Vegapunk's expression gradually became serious; looking at Sengoku, he said very seriously:

"Fleet Admiral, I think the best course of action right now is for you, the three Admirals, plus Hero Karp, to go to Wano Country together and capture that Beasts Son-in-Law Luo Xing."

"In that case, all problems will be resolved effortlessly."

Sengoku was stunned, staring blankly at Vegapunk.

Finally, he let out a bitter laugh and said:

"Alright then, I won't make things difficult for you, and you stop teasing me."

Vegapunk spread his hands and said:

"That settles it. Don't ask about those strange cells or Senzu Beans; we truly lack the ability for that. Let's talk about the Pacifistas instead. My development of this human weapon is nearly complete..."

Half an hour later.

Sengoku returned to Marineford with hope.

Having heard Vegapunk say that the Pacifistas were extremely powerful, he was certain they would reverse the tide against the Beasts Pirates.

Next.

The Navy Headquarters released a new bounty poster.

Among them was a new pirate, Trafalgar Law.

But the most eye-catching were the new bounties for the Three All-Stars of the Beasts Pirates—

Jack the Drought, bounty 1,660,000,000 Berries;

Queen the Plague, bounty 1,930,000,000 Berries;

King the Inferno, bounty 2,250,000,000 Berries!

Oh, and there was Luo Xing's bounty poster; his bounty hadn't changed, still 2,000,000,000 Berries.

But beneath the bounty poster, a small line of text had been added: 5,000,000,000 Berries for the live capture of Luo Xing!

78. Poor Enel: From God to Dog in Just One Minute (Please Subscribe)

Luo Xing casually grabbed a messenger pigeon and learned from the newspaper that the Navy and the World Government, in order to capture him alive, had set a bounty of 5,000,000,000 Berries for him.

Higher than the bounties of the Four Emperors!

It seemed that Fleet Admiral Sengoku, the Five Elders, and even possibly that mysterious my lord Imu, were all extremely troubled by his inventions.

Luo Xing gazed at the number 5,000,000,000; the last price this high had been for a Devil Fruit.

Right, it was the Ope Ope no Mi, the one said to be able to perform the Eternal Life Surgery on people.

Thinking of the Ope Ope no Mi, Luo Xing naturally thought of Trafalgar Law.

This person was once a member of the Donquixote Family, later escaped, and is probably now a pirate in the first half of the Grand Line.

Luo Xing suddenly had an idea.

If Law performed the Eternal Life Surgery, and then was fed a Senzu Bean, would that allow the Eternal Life Surgery to be performed many times?

Luo Xing's eyes sparkled; he felt this idea was very feasible.

If it really worked, then he, his wife Yamato, and his women could all achieve immortality; that would simply be perfect.
