Chapter 27

Makino nodded, walked to the pile of treasures that made her feel somewhat alarmed, and began to store all the treasures and money into the safe.

Although her safe was only two meters in size, it could hold a great deal; storing the pile of treasures before her was a piece of cake.

After Makino finished storing the treasures, Lin Yu took the women and left the Goa Kingdom palace, heading toward the *Slave of God* where Nojiko was keeping watch.

Not long after Lin Yu and the others left.

The Goa Kingdom discovered that the King had been murdered, and the whole country was shaken.

And Lin Yu, at this time, had already begun his swordsmanship tutorial with Makino. ===== CHAPTER 54 =====

Late at night.

On the *Slave of God*.

In the captain’s room.

After being scrubbed by Anna and Charlos, Makino, wearing light clothing, sat on the bed, looking nervously at Lin Yu before her.

She knew what was going to happen next, but she was still somewhat nervous.

[Name: Makino]

[Identity: Tavern Owner]

[Special Skill: None]

[Talent: None]

[Friendliness: 30]

[Combat Power: One Star]

[Devil Fruit: Paramecia - Box-Box Fruit]

Lin Yu sat at the table nearby, propping himself up with his right hand, looking Makino up and down.

Because she had eaten the Devil Fruit, Makino’s combat power had directly reached one star.

"What... what are you waiting for?"

Makino felt somewhat uncomfortable being looked at by Lin Yu; she blushed and issued a team invitation.

Since the matter was unavoidable, she chose to face it sooner.

Hearing Makino’s invitation, Lin Yu chuckled and looked at her with a smile:

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

"I am willing."

Makino, who had already boarded the ship, didn't know why Lin Yu still asked this, but she nodded and answered anyway.

[Ding! Makino has joined the crew; please select Makino’s position.]

Lin Yu directly selected the position of cook; in any case, he could adjust these positions at any time, so it didn't really matter.

Next, Lin Yu pulled Makino and smiled:

"Miss Makino, are you hungry?"

Hearing this, Makino’s pretty face instantly flushed red.

The next morning.

A refreshed Lin Yu came to the deck.

In the original story, it was unknown whose child Makino had, but now, Makino’s child was destined to be his.

Smiling, Lin Yu took the Ryo Wazamono 'Rain-Cutter' from the void beside him.

After being intimate with Makino, he had successfully acquired her Devil Fruit ability.

Now, he could, like Makino, take out items he had stored in his interdimensional storage box from the void at any time.

The Box-Box Fruit’s storage box needed to be summoned when storing items.

But when taking items out, one only needed to reach into the void, which looked very stylish.

And Makino was now also starting to generate revenue for him, allowing him to harvest 5 points of experience feedback in physique, vitality, and spirit every hour.

Wielding the Rain-Cutter a few times, Lin Yu began to study how to integrate his wind-control ability into his swordsmanship, to create the Wind Wall and the Last Breath.

Only then would he be a qualified Yasuo player.

A few minutes later.

Lin Yu had created a Wind Wall; for him, who could manipulate the power of the wind at will, this was simply a piece of cake.

It was the instantaneous assault of the Last Breath that left him a bit stumped.

"Forget it, I'll perfect it after I capture Kalifa and learn Soru."

After experimenting a few times, Lin Yu stopped worrying about it and lay on the lounge chair at the bow of the ship, waiting for Reiju and the others to wake up.

According to Reiju, the superpowers obtained by lineage factor modification could also be strengthened through training; with long-term training, one could also possess power equal to a Devil Fruit.

It was just that this training was too exhausting, so Reiju had never trained, and thus could not provide feedback to Lin Yu.

So Lin Yu planned to train Reiju to obtain feedback from her.

As for training himself? That was impossible.

Not long after.

Reiju, Nojiko, Anna, and Charlos came to the deck and began their daily grueling training.

Among them, Nojiko trained the hardest.

Yesterday, Lin Yu’s decision to leave her to guard the *Slave of God* had been a significant blow to her.

When she learned that Makino had eaten the Devil Fruit Lin Yu gave her, Nojiko was even more envious.

She also hoped to strengthen her power quickly.

It wasn't until ten o'clock in the morning that Makino woke up from bed.

After finishing breakfast, she also changed into a midriff-baring T-shirt and hot pants, joining Nojiko in basic training.

Since she had already boarded Lin Yu’s pirate ship, she knew she had to improve her strength quickly.

And in the mind of the tavern girl from Windmill Village, the 100 million Berries of a Devil Fruit was an astronomical figure.

After Lin Yu fed her that Devil Fruit, she felt as if she were carrying a huge debt, and she felt very uneasy.

That was why she wanted to strengthen her power quickly and make herself useful.

Lin Yu lay on the bow of the ship, flipping through the newspaper while turning his head to look at the alluring figures behind him.

At this moment, Reiju, Nojiko, and the others were all wearing midriff-baring T-shirts and hot pants, revealing pairs of long legs.

Long hours of training had left the women drenched in sweat, looking moist and supple, and combined with the flushed faces from the training, they looked very tempting.

It wasn't until eleven o'clock in the morning that Lin Yu stopped their physical training and let them rest.

Training for one morning every day and doing their own things in the afternoon was Lin Yu’s arrangement for everyone.

Afterward, Lin Yu took a Devil Fruit from the void and looked at it in his hand.

This was what Charlos had found in the Goa Kingdom’s treasury yesterday; Lin Yu hadn't known what kind of Devil Fruit it was at the time.

However, he had just tried using his investigation skill and had figured out the name of this Devil Fruit.

[Zoan - Bug-Bug Fruit - Light Butterfly Form]

The Light Butterfly was a type of butterfly in the pirate world, pure white all over, resembling an angel symbolizing light under the sunlight; this was the origin of its name.

Nojiko, who had just finished bathing, saw the Devil Fruit in Lin Yu’s hand, and her eyes lit up; she took a turn and came to Lin Yu’s side.

"Want to eat it?"

Lin Yu looked at Nojiko, who was squatting beside his chair, and smiled.

"Mm." Nojiko wiped the water droplets from her forehead and nodded very forcefully.

Now on the *Slave of God*, except for Reiju, she was the only one who hadn't obtained a Devil Fruit ability.

And Reiju already possessed an ability equal to a Devil Fruit, so it didn't matter whether she ate one or not.

"Nojiko, this Devil Fruit doesn't suit you."

"So I plan to find a suitable Devil Fruit before giving it to you."

"You want to become a female warrior to protect Nami, don't you? So you have to wait a little longer."

Lin Yu moved to the side, cleared a space on the lounge chair, pulled Nojiko to lie down with him, and explained.

The Light Butterfly Devil Fruit in his hand didn't provide much of a bonus to combat ability.

In Lin Yu’s view, the only effective ability was flight.

And he still had a few sets of Raid Suits obtained from Judge; if Nojiko wanted to fly, he could completely help her with a Raid Suit. ===== CHAPTER 55 =====
