When they embraced just now, Gild Tesoro felt the strangeness of Stella's body.
Her skin had no warmth, nor the breath of vitality.
If possible, he still hoped to return Stella to normal.
Luo Chen rubbed his chin. "Turning her completely into a living person is impossible for the time being."
"If there is a chance in the future, I will help you again."
There was a Ninjutsu called "Rinne Tensei no Jutsu" that could achieve the resurrection of the dead.
Resurrection in the true sense, not Impure World Reincarnation.
The conditions were harsh.
It required the user to consume a massive amount of Chakra and life force.
In this world, it should correspond to consuming his stamina and vitality.
The stamina aspect was easy to solve.
Stamina was not like Chakra; running out of it wouldn't cause death.
If Luo Chen's stamina ran out, he would at most collapse from exhaustion for a while and just needed to wait to recover.
The key was vitality.
"I heard the Op-Op Fruit can grant people eternal life."
"Does that mean the Op-Op Fruit can equip me with endless vitality?"
Luo Chen was also thinking about how he should use the "Rinne Tensei no Jutsu" if the system rewarded him with it.
The current owner of the Op-Op Fruit was Trafalgar Law.
Performing the Perennial Youth Operation would lead to Trafalgar Law's death.
But if Luo Chen obtained endless vitality through the Perennial Youth Operation...
He could use this vitality to resurrect Trafalgar Law.
Trafalgar Law could then perform the Perennial Youth Operation on others.
After Trafalgar Law died, he would resurrect the other party again.
Cycling back and forth like this, endlessly.
He would directly become a perpetual motion machine.
Luo Chen had some doubts; was this method feasible?
If it could be realized, he and the people around him could all live forever.
While Luo Chen was thinking, Gild Tesoro showed a look of joy and thanked him gratefully.
Luo Chen's meaning was that the possibility of truly resurrecting Stella was very high.
He was excited and said, "Fleet Admiral Luo Chen, my money is the Jinghai Army's money, and also your money."
"If needed, please use it as you wish."
Consuming all his wealth to exchange for Stella's life—Gild Tesoro was very satisfied with this.
Luo Chen asked, "Approximately how much are the assets you can liquidate and divert right now worth?"
Gild Tesoro pondered for a moment and replied truthfully, "About three trillion Belly."
"Let me use it first." Luo Chen wasn't polite either.
The more money he recharged, the more likely he was to obtain the Rinne Tensei no Jutsu.
Moreover, regarding the three trillion Belly, he could return it to the other party at any time after recharging.
Gild Tesoro did not hesitate and smiled. "I will trouble the Fleet Admiral to wait for seven days while I send people to mobilize it."
Even for him, it would take at least seven days to raise three trillion Belly.
It might even affect the commerce of the entire world.
But Gild Tesoro didn't care.
He just wanted to resurrect Stella as soon as possible.
At this moment, the door to the reception room opened.
Nami walked in quickly, accompanied by Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold.
She first greeted Luo Chen.
Then her gaze was drawn to the pieces of gold furniture in the room.
Walking all the way here, Nami was thoroughly attracted by the luxury of Gran Tesoro.
A giant ship built entirely of gold.
All the buildings were made of gold.
She couldn't even calculate how much money this was worth.
Seeing her appearance, Gild Tesoro smiled faintly.
He had previously sent people to collect intelligence on Luo Chen and the people around him.
Cat Burglar Nami.
Before meeting Luo Chen, she was a thief who specialized in stealing from pirates.
She loved treasures like money, gold, and diamonds.
Gild Tesoro laughed. "Fleet Admiral Luo Chen, if Miss Nami likes it, she can take anything on Gran Tesoro."
"If she wants this ship, that is no problem either."
Not far away, Nami suddenly turned her head, her beautiful eyes glowing with a golden light.
Even though she was already very rich now.
Compared to Gild Tesoro's wealth, it was still a drop in the ocean.
Luo Chen laughed. "When you have time, please trouble yourself to build a gold ship for her instead."
He had jokingly said before that he would give Gran Tesoro to Nami.
But if he really gave it to her, she wouldn't be able to drive it.
Moreover, since Gild Tesoro had joined the Jinghai Army, he still needed to use Gran Tesoro to make money for him.
It would be better to let Gild Tesoro use the ability of the Gold-Gold Fruit to build a separate gold ship for Nami.
One that could actually sail.
Presumably, sitting in a gold ship, Nami would be able to giggle non-stop.
Gild Tesoro readily agreed.
Building a gold ship was just a simple effort for him.
Nami suppressed her inner excitement and thanked him with a smile.
Without chatting much further, Luo Chen bid farewell to Gild Tesoro.
He took Nami back to Boa Hancock's residence.
He needed to wait for seven days in Gran Tesoro.
After the recharge was complete, he could leave and head to the Dressrosa Kingdom.
...
Luo Chen enjoyed seven happy days in Gran Tesoro.
Near the Sabaody Archipelago, Luffy and the others were training in seclusion on an uninhabited deserted island.
On this day, Silvers Rayleigh took two newspapers, landed on the deserted island, and met with Luffy and the others.
After months of high-intensity training and the teachings of the Dark King Silvers Rayleigh, the strength of everyone in the Straw Hat Crew had advanced by leaps and bounds.
Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, and Sanji had mastered Armament Haki and Observation Haki.
Luffy had also awakened and learned to initially control Conqueror's Haki.
Usopp had learned Observation Haki.
The strength of Tony Tony Chopper, Carina, and Franky had not improved significantly.
The abilities taught by Silvers Rayleigh were not suitable for the two humans and one reindeer.
"Luffy, you guys take a break first and look at these two newspapers."
Silvers Rayleigh called out.
In the distance, Roronoa Zoro used the Three Sword Style, slashing forward.
Luffy used Observation Haki to skillfully dodge amidst the blade light.
Sanji was in the sky practicing the kicking technique "Sky Walk."
Tony Tony Chopper and Carina had turned into cheerleaders, waving flags and shouting for the three training.
Franky was on the distant shore, significantly modifying the Sunny Merry.
He held a yellowed blueprint in his hand, frowning constantly as he observed it, seemingly unable to understand it well.
Hearing Silvers Rayleigh's call, everyone stopped what they were doing and went to assemble.
Usopp, who was aiming at flying fish in the sea with a slingshot, also stopped temporarily and gathered with everyone.
Silvers Rayleigh sized up Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp.
It was visible to the naked eye that the four had become much sturdier and tougher than a few months ago; they had clearly become stronger.
He sighed and said, "Many things have happened during the time you were cultivating."
"The one with the greatest impact is Luo Chen establishing the Jinghai Army."
As Silvers Rayleigh spoke, he handed out a newspaper.
This was published by the World Economy News Paper a few days ago.
It published matters regarding Luo Chen establishing the Jinghai Army.
The Jinghai Army threatened to sweep away pirates, which must be a heavy blow to Luffy and the others who were preparing to enter the New World.
He hesitated for a long time but still decided to tell them.
Let the young people choose for themselves what to do.
Moreover, Luffy and the others had an old friendship with Luo Chen. Even if they were dead set on continuing to break into the New World as pirates, their lives wouldn't be in danger.
Carina took the newspaper with slight surprise.
Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, Sanji, and the others stuck their heads out curiously to watch.
If it weren't related to Luo Chen, they wouldn't be so concerned.
