Chapter 89: Regeneration Technique [Seeking First Subscription]
Morgans?
Sounds like the president of the World Economic News Agency?
Sister Sister Guyina looked thoughtful; she had actually always been somewhat curious as to why, on many occasions, My Lord Siano's understanding of this world far exceeded her own.
Clearly, she herself had read extensively since childhood, and furthermore had such a knowledgeable mentor as Teacher Teacher Gengsilang, who was well-versed in all matters under heaven...
"Oh, right."
Sister Sister Guyina suddenly remembered something else, pulling out a wanted poster from the stack, "And this one is also quite strange; for some reason, Marine Headquarters seems to have judged this fellow as being in our camp as well."
"Smoker?"
Siano frowned slightly.
It was indeed interesting that after he publicly executed Onigumo, the marines on the island displayed two completely different reactions.
Those marines directly under Onigumo's command each wished they could grow two extra legs, having long since fled in a sorry state;
whereas the branch marines of the Loguetown base were filled with gratitude toward them, and in the end, both sides even cooperated to jointly treat the wounded in the houses on either side of the square.
However.
From start to finish, they had never seen Base Commander Smoker.
The other party had vanished throughout the entire ordeal as if evaporated into thin air, disappearing without a trace.
It was only later, from the news reports, that Siano learned there was someone named Arta on Onigumo's warship, whom Smoker had executed on the spot.
For the Marines, this was indeed an unforgivable act of desertion.
But to inexplicably claim he was in league with oneself...
It was likely because the two incidents erupted at the same time and place, with a tight connection between them.
Smoker also departed Loguetown afterward.
Therefore, Marine Headquarters must have mistakenly judged that he had boarded one's ship.
"No need to worry about him."
Siano shook his head; the next time both parties appeared in different contexts, Marine Headquarters would naturally realize they were not of the same ilk, and the wanted posters would naturally be issued separately.
Speaking of which.
In his impression, while Smoker was indeed short-tempered and acted according to his own will, he had always harbored a sense of belief and belonging toward the Marines.
Forcing such a fellow to leave the Marines just to lay a killing hand on a king was an extremely difficult feat; one wonders what exactly happened on that warship from beginning to end.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Dull thuds of fists knocking continuously came from the silver wolf figurehead at the bow.
"I say, Nami," Siano looked over speechlessly, "why are you still at it? It's been several minutes; haven't you vented enough yet?"
"Marine Headquarters, Marine Headquarters!!!" Nami gritted her teeth, pounding fist after fist on the statue head that resembled A-Gin, "Aaaaaah, damn A-Gin, I'm so furious!!"
As a pet, A-Gin had a bounty of eighty million Berries.
Yet she, as the captain's younger sister, was given only eight thousand!!!
Exactly one ten-thousandth of A-Gin's bounty; this was simply too insulting, who could endure this!
Was the Marine intelligence department a bunch of big fools? Did they not notice that she had also been secretly helping during the Loguetown incident?
Many of the Captain officers who came to provide support were intercepted by her flame abilities, yet in the end, they didn't even discover she was a Devil Fruit user!
"Let her be."
Siano ultimately chose to ignore it, asking casually, "How much longer until we reach Reverse Mountain?"
"Very soon."
Sister Sister Guyina raised her head to gaze into the distance; the towering Red Line was already visible far away in their field of vision, "Tomorrow, I suppose; if all goes well, we can prepare to cross Reverse Mountain by dawn tomorrow."
So they were finally about to enter the Grand Line...
Her expression became somewhat emotional; when she first set sail, she had never expected that before even crossing Reverse Mountain, she would already become a "great pirate" with a bounty of over seventy million Berries.
As for the captain.
Tsk, she felt a hint of anticipation deep in her heart, wondering what expression those pirates in the Grand Line would wear when they aggressively surrounded their group of newcomers, only to learn that their captain's bounty was one hundred and eighty million...
How could Siano know these little thoughts of hers? After finishing the newspaper and confirming there was no omitted useful information, he casually opened the system panel to browse.
Displayed at the very top were clearly the latest sacrifice records from a few days ago.
【You sacrificed Roger's execution platform, gaining 18,000 points】
【You sacrificed the Hound's severed arm, gaining 300 points】
【You sacrificed Onigumo's flying dragon helmet, gaining 1,000 points】
【Current remaining points: 48,600】
Roger's execution platform provided a full eighteen thousand points, second only to Luffy's authentic straw hat.
It was at least worthy of the hard work Siano put in, searching beneath the sea for half an hour on the night of their departure.
As for this Hound's severed arm, it was obtained from among the four rear admirals who had been tied up.
Since these few had attacked him, they naturally had to be prepared to pay the price.
Thus, not a single one was missed; all had one arm severed by Siano as a deterrent, and also just to see if there was any wool to be sheared.
Unfortunately, in the end, only the Hound was a named, face-showing character in the manga.
Siano also had a slight impression of this fellow.
A user of the Dog-Dog Fruit, Model: Hound; in the original timeline six years later, he was one of the eight headquarters vice admirals who followed the God of Defense, Saint Saturn, to Egghead Island to eliminate Vegapunk and the Straw Hat Pirates.
As for those low-ranking marine soldiers, they ran fast enough, and he was too lazy to pursue and kill them.
Meanwhile, those pirates who had been knocked unconscious in the square were all taken into custody by the Loguetown branch.
"Points are approaching fifty thousand all at once..."
Gazing at his credit balance, Siano drained the cocktail in his glass in one gulp, thoroughly satisfied.
He casually opened the trading market; with money in hand, it had to be spent, and if he remembered correctly, the market inventory had just refreshed a few days ago, so it was the perfect time to see if there were any items suitable for him.
【Konoha Hokage Rock】
【Type: Wonder】
【Price: 5000 Credits】
【Description: The massive mountain range standing behind the Konoha Ninja Village, carved into the likenesses of successive Hokage, currently updated up to the Sixth.】
【Seller's Note: Just dug it down; those with large homes can place it in the living room. Anyone interested?】
Siano ignored it directly and scrolled to the next item.
With five thousand credits, he could indeed still afford it.
But there was absolutely no cost-performance ratio to speak of...
Who the hell builds a wonder in the early game for no reason!
【Piccolo's Regeneration Technique Serum】
【Type: Special Item】
【Price: 7000 Credits】
【Description: A special serum from the second-generation Piccolo of the Dragon Ball world; after injection into the body, one gains the Regeneration Technique talent, meaning that except for the head, any other part of the body that suffers injury can be rapidly repaired by expending one's own energy, with the energy consumed for each repair being directly proportional to the weight of the repaired body limb or section.】
【Seller's Note: This thing was really hard to steal, huh? Wait, a round iron ball fell in front; I need to go check it out.】
Regeneration Technique Serum?
Siano paused slightly, desire erupting in his eyes, and immediately added it to his shopping cart.
To hesitate for even a second would be disrespectful to Demon King Piccolo!
He currently had the bolstering of the Flesh and Blood Smelting Method, and his entire physique had indeed reached a level as monstrous as a freak.
But even someone as strong as Aokiji could have his legs broken, and Whitebeard could have half his head blown off; who could guarantee that after future battles with powerful enemies, they wouldn't end up missing limbs or parts?
"It only costs a bit of bodily energy, and anywhere except the head can be repaired?"
Siano pinched his chin, pondering; later, he could go to the training room to privately test the specific effects.
It was just a matter of where to start.
He subconsciously lowered his head and glanced at Sabo.
