Chapter 13

"Water 7, Franky?"

Seeing the information on the note, Judge raised an eyebrow.

"This person is a disciple of the top shipwright Tom of Water 7; the blueprints for Pluton are with him."

Explaining this, Lin Yu picked up the bag and prepared to leave.

The combat suit was in hand, and Reiju was on the ship; he didn't want to stay any longer.

As for the Pluton blueprints, he felt that rather than giving them to the World Government or destroying them, it was better to give them to Judge.

At least in Judge's hands, he could snatch the fruits of his labor whenever he wanted.

"Catch."

Judge tossed a box to Lin Yu. "This is my specially made Den Den Mushi and a Germa Eternal Pose; keep these for easier contact in the future."

"Got it, I'll be taking Reiju now."

Picking up the bag and the box, Lin Yu waved casually at Judge.

After a long silence, just as Lin Yu was about to board the Slave of God, Judge shouted:

"Treat her well."

"Got it."

Lin Yu didn't even look back and boarded the Slave of God directly.

The next moment, the Slave of God set sail, speeding toward the direction of Reverse Mountain.

Watching the departing Slave of God, Vinsmoke Judge burned the note in his hand and returned to Germa 66.

"Target, Water 7!"

Slave of God.

On the deck.

Lin Yu held the canister and manual for the scientific combat suit, carefully studying the instructions.

Behind him, Charlos and Anna were undergoing grueling physical training.

The scientific combat suit didn't provide much of a boost in combat power in the hands of someone who hadn't undergone lineage factor modification.

It lacked special abilities like Reiju's poison, Ichiji's fire, Niji's electricity, or Sanji's invisibility.

Of course, the basic defense, the cool transformation effects, and the ability to fly were still retained.

And for Lin Yu, as long as he had the ability to fly, it was a huge win.

Watching Lin Yu study for a long time, Reiju couldn't stand it anymore and said to him:

"These are all unfinished products; they need to be further designed and modified according to the user to be used normally."

Unfinished products?

Hearing Reiju's words, Lin Yu was suddenly furious.

That old scoundrel Judge actually dared to use unfinished products to fool him.

Didn't he know that if he angered him, it would be his daughter who suffered?

Thinking of this, Lin Yu threw the canister in his hand away, preparing to turn back and settle the score with Judge.

"Be careful!"

"This is very expensive."

Seeing Lin Yu throw the combat suit canister away, Reiju caught it with quick reflexes.

Then, Reiju said to Lin Yu with annoyance:

"Everyone's physique and specialties are different."

"So there are no finished combat suits; they are all semi-finished, and memory metal is extremely rare and expensive; making combat suits is very difficult."

"If you break one, that's basically one less."

Hearing this, Lin Yu realized he had wronged Judge, and for a moment, he felt a bit embarrassed.

No wonder the other party had told him that Reiju would know how to use and manufacture them; it turned out there was such a reason.

However, since he had lost face here, Lin Yu prepared to regain it elsewhere.

"Reiju, are you willing to join my pirate crew and become my subordinate?"

Walking up to Reiju, Lin Yu asked her.

"I am." Reiju, who had been mentally prepared, pursed her lips and nodded in agreement.

[Ding! Reiju has joined the crew; please select Reiju's crew position.]

"Combatant."

After saying this, Lin Yu picked up Reiju and ran toward the captain's cabin.

Being picked up by Lin Yu, Reiju was startled.

"What... what are you doing?"

"Heh, since it's a political marriage, what do you think I'm doing?"

Hearing this, Reiju's pretty face turned bright red, the blush spreading to her earlobes, contrasting with her pink hair.

Reiju: "I... I'm not ready yet..."

Lin Yu: "But I am."

Reiju: "..." ===== CHAPTER 27 =====

Night, in the captain's cabin.

[Name: Vinsmoke Reiju]

[Identity: Princess]

[Special Skill: Poison Pink]

[Talent: Lineage Factor Cyborg]

[Friendliness: 50]

[Combat Power: Six Stars]

[Lineage Factor Cyborg: Superhuman body, possesses an "exoskeleton," with tough skin and strong recovery.]

[Earnings: 30 Physique, 30 Qi/Blood, 30 Spirit/hour. Note: Six-star combat power, earnings effect x6. Note: Combat power does not include the additional power of the combat suit.]

Withdrawing his gaze from Reiju's information panel, Lin Yu glanced at the sleeping Reiju and then got out of bed.

[Ding! Successfully formed a bond with Vinsmoke Reiju; obtained the opponent's ability: Lineage Factor Cyborg.]

Coming to the bow of the ship, Lin Yu looked at the progress notification and took a deep breath.

Through his intimate contact with Reiju, he had luckily obtained her Lineage Factor Cyborg talent, raising his physique, qi/blood, spirit, and other physical abilities to three stars.

Coupled with the Three-Color Haki he already possessed, his current strength had reached four stars.

If he added the scientific combat suit, his strength could reach five stars, becoming an existence like a Marine Headquarters Commodore.

In just a few days, he had raised his strength from Captain to Commodore.

This made Lin Yu refresh his understanding of his pirate crew system fruit once again.

"The higher the combat star level, the more efficient the feedback; it seems I still need to find those powerful women."

"Of course, I can also find Devil Fruits to feed Anna and Charlos; this is the fastest way to enhance their combat power."

"However, before that, I must ensure they maintain absolute loyalty to me."

"Also, before taking in Nojiko and the others next time, perhaps I should feed them Devil Fruits first; that way, I might be able to obtain the corresponding fruit abilities."

"But where can I get Devil Fruits?"

Thinking of these things, Lin Yu returned to the room, held Reiju, and fell asleep until the next morning.

Meanwhile.

The news of the God-Slayer Lin Yu killing a World Noble Celestial Dragon began to cause shocks around the world under the spread of the News Coo.

Alabasta.

Nico Robin handed the coin to the News Coo in front of her, and after petting the bird's head, she smiled and took a newspaper.

She scanned the contents of the newspaper casually, and her eyes widened, freezing her in place.

"Daring to kill a Celestial Dragon and become an enemy of the World Government."

"Who exactly is this Lin Yu?" ===== CHAPTER 28 =====
