Chapter 194: Base Planning

Moria's bounty was over 300 million Berries, and even with all the treasure on the ship, it totaled only 700 to 800 million Berries.

Yet the Shadow-Shadow Fruit of the Paramecia type, after deducting Moria's bounty of over 300 million, cost Lin Yu nearly 600 million Berries!

In total, that amounted to over 1 billion Berries!

However, the higher the value of a Devil Fruit, the higher its baseline and the greater its potential.

So naturally, Lin Yu hoped to obtain the most expensive Devil Fruit possible.

Of course, just this island-sized, super-gigantic, terrifying Thriller Bark alone made Lin Yu's expedition worth every penny.

Unless he could encounter Kaido, kill him, and obtain his Paramecia-type Float-Float Fruit to create his own floating island.

Otherwise, Moria's ship would be his main vessel from now on.

Of course, even if he obtained the Float-Float Fruit, Lin Yu's floating island would naturally use this terrifying Thriller Bark as its main island; his system could bind and freely control ships, but it could not bind islands.

However, to find Kaido, Lin Yu would probably have to wait until after participating in the Summit War and raising his strength to the next stage.

Don't be fooled by the movie where Monkey D. Luffy fought Kaido so easily; that was the protagonist, Monkey D. Luffy.

Facing a legendary pirate like Kaido, who could compete with Roger for the title of Pirate King, Lin Yu still felt it was better to be safe.

After reviewing the list of assets and treasures in his hand, Lin Yu casually handed it to Miss Kalifa.

"Go tell Reiju and the others that this island-ship will be our main base from now on."

"Have them think about how to remodel this island-ship, pool their ideas, and draw up a renovation plan."

"Miss Kalifa, you were once a mayor's secretary, so you must be very familiar with urban planning; I'll leave this matter to you to lead."

The main tone of Thriller Bark was gloomy and gray, which Lin Yu did not like, so he wanted to completely remodel it.

"I understand."

"What kind of ship do you want to turn this into?"

Miss Kalifa adjusted her glasses and nodded calmly.

While undercover in Water 7, she had often dealt with urban remodeling; as long as she could figure out Lin Yu's preferences, it would be very simple for her.

Lin Yu pinched his chin, thought for a moment, then spoke:

"I don't like being disturbed, so just make sure the defensive power is sufficient, the environment is good, it's livable, and all facilities are complete."

In the words of civil service exams, it would be 'good living environment, convenient facilities, and guaranteed safety.'

"I understand."

Miss Kalifa wrote down Lin Yu's requirements, then glanced left and right; seeing no one approaching, she smiled slightly.

Then, pretending to be calm, she adjusted her glasses, closed the door to the helm room, and locked it from the inside.

After doing this, she immediately ran to Lin Yu, threw herself into his arms, wrapped her arms around him, and offered her lips.

Since leaving Enies Lobby, she had always wanted to do this.

Unfortunately, there was always someone around Lin Yu, leaving her no chance; now that the time was ripe, she naturally seized the opportunity.

"You little temptress! You actually dare to seduce me!"

"Kaya said Perona still needs a few more days to recover; she can't handle your sword training."

"So you've investigated everything thoroughly; truly worthy of being an agent."

"Hehe, who wouldn't, when you're so handsome and so powerful?"

While Lin Yu was working hard.

Reiju, Luo Bin, and the others were also working hard to move the corpses Moria had collected.

These corpses needed to be thrown into the sea surrounding the Thriller Bark, so it was very troublesome.

As for why they weren't burned, it was naturally because there were too many corpses and the smell of burning would be too foul.

Originally, Makino planned to load all these corpses directly into her dimension-storage box for transport; for this, she had even placed all the gold and supplies inside her box into the warehouse of Thriller Bark.

However, her proposal was unanimously rejected by the women, who ordered her not to put such strange things into the box.

They didn't want to find strange fingernails while eating.

Although Makino insisted that everything inside the storage box was stored separately and would leave no traces or smells upon removal, the women still refused, even assigning Huang Jinzhou to stay by her side to prevent her from doing anything rash.

In response, Makino, who had originally thought she could show off her skills, was greatly discouraged.

Twin-Tree Thorns!

Miss Double Finger Sara transformed her hands into thorn spikes, extending from the shore all the way to the wooden wall surrounding Thriller Bark.

Then, more spikes grew between the two main spikes, merging together to form a wooden ladder.

Next, long spikes grew beneath the tips, plunging straight into the ship's hull to provide support, forming a wooden bridge.

"Excellent! This makes it much more convenient!" Reiju nodded in satisfaction upon seeing Sara's actions.

Afterwards, Sara created several more wooden bridges in the same manner for the women to walk back and forth.

This way, they wouldn't need to load the corpses onto the ship and then run to the outskirts of Thriller Bark to dump them.

Seeing Sara's actions, Luo Bin smiled slightly.

In the next instant, countless hands appeared at equal intervals on the wooden bridges; like a conveyor belt, they threw all the corpses into the sea surrounding Thriller Bark.

"Big Sister Luo Bin, you're so amazing!"

Nojiko, seeing Luo Bin's method, exclaimed in delight.

This way, they only needed to carry the corpses to this spot.

The rest would naturally be handled by Big Sister Luo Bin.

"Alright, let's hurry and gather those corpses and place them here."

Reiju gave the order and led the women to clear the corpses.

"Just how many people did this Moria kill to accumulate so many corpses? It's truly disgusting." Alvida, just boarding the ship, glanced disdainfully at the corpses scattered everywhere, then picked one up and walked toward Luo Bin's position.

Although she had no desire to do these things, in order to integrate into the group as quickly as possible, she could only force herself to act with patience.
