Chapter 343: Over Two Hundred Billion
Robin was now 15 years old. She had grown into a graceful young woman, standing at 1.7 meters tall. Her long legs, paired with black high heels, made her look exceptionally charming.
Her figure was naturally beyond reproach, and the V-neck outfit she wore fully accentuated her allure.
Additionally, unlike in her previous life's anime version, she didn't enjoy sunbathing, so her skin was very fair.
"Captain, Zunesha has returned."
Robin looked at him, a complicated glint flashing in her eyes as she spoke.
Jiang Qize raised an eyebrow.
"Mm, got it."
Following his instructions, Zunesha had spent the past few years wandering the New World, searching for Devil Fruits on uninhabited islands.
Now that it had returned, it had likely gained quite a harvest.
"Then, Captain, I'll take my leave first." Robin bit her lip lightly and said softly.
"Mm."
Jiang Qize nodded.
Robin then withdrew.
He walked down, waved his hand, and opened all the chests at once.
What was revealed inside were boxes filled to the brim with Beli.
He waved his hand again, and a surge of Armament Haki flowed from his palm, covering all the Beli.
"Recharge!"
As his voice fell, all the Beli inside the twenty large chests vanished in an instant.
[Recharge successful. Obtained 20 billion Beli!]
Hearing the notification, the corner of Jiang Qize's mouth lifted slightly.
"Almost enough."
He then opened his status panel.

[Beli]: 216.943 billion

"Over two hundred billion—enough to upgrade several to King level!"
He then opened the enhancement interface for Dragon Hunter.
[Constitution Enhancement]: Top-tier (1 billion Beli)
[Strength Enhancement]: Top-tier (1 billion Beli)
[Speed Enhancement]…
[…]
[Observation Haki Enhancement]: Top-tier (10 billion Beli)
[Armament Haki Enhancement]: Top-tier (10 billion Beli)
"To max everything out costs 30 billion—nothing serious!"
A smile curled at Jiang Qize's lips as he pushed Raptorex's top-tier enhancements to the maximum.
Raptorex was the first dinosaur he had summoned, so naturally it would be the first to evolve to King level. The Black Dragon was a special case and didn't count.
30 billion Beli was deducted.
Buzz—BOOM!!
The moment the Beli was deducted, a heaven-shaking explosion erupted from Azure Dragon Peak outside, causing the entire Dragon Island to tremble.
Above Dragon Island, dark clouds pressed down, and within them, bolts of lightning twisted like raging thunder dragons, roaring violently.
The entire island seemed as if it were undergoing an apocalyptic tribulation.
On Azure Dragon Peak—
"ROAR—"
A roar, half dragon and half beast, echoed across heaven and earth.
Raptorex reverted to its dinosaur form. Its hundred-meter body stood atop Azure Dragon Peak, its head beneath the blackened sky, its feet planted on the grand summit. Waves of terrifying pressure spread outward from its body.
Black-gold light flowed across its form. On its black-gold skin, faint, flickering patches resembling scales shimmered into view—yet upon closer inspection, there were no actual scales.
